DON'T HATE PEOPLE For Their Govt.'s Faults

When Governments Become

More Powerful Than God!

They Forget God And Humans

Don’t hate people for the fault

of their governments. Your own

govt. does similar things!

(M. Javed Naseem)

  

إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ ٱلشَّيْطَانُ أَن يُوقِعَ بَيْنَكُمُ ٱلْعَدَاوَةَ وَٱلْبَغْضَآءَ

فِى ٱلْخَمْرِ وَٱلْمَيْسِرِ وَيَصُدَّكُمْ عَن ذِكْرِ ٱللَّهِ

وَعَنِ ٱلصَّلاَةِ فَهَلْ أَنْتُمْ مُّنتَهُونَ
“Shaitan's plan is (but) to excite enmity and hatred

between you, with intoxicants and gambling, and

hinder you from the remembrance of Allah, and

from prayer. Will you not then abstain?”

(al-Quran 5:91)

Nationalism is good but sometimes it blinds you from seeing the truth and acknowledging the reality. If you don’t keep an open mind and a clean heart, you are bound to fall in the ditch of hatred. Then the biased media would further add fuel to the fire to keep you blind and objective in your judgments. It happens all over the world, in every country!

***********************************

In America you can (still) blast the Govt.

But in Israel & Saudi Arabia (and most

Muslim or Arab countries), you cannot!
Pakistanis are lucky to enjoy freedom

but are very ungrateful and abusive.

 America is a great country – actually the greatest of all countries on the face of this Earth. No other country in the world guarantees you or gives you the rights and liberties (freedom) the American people enjoy. You can generally live your life the way you want. This is because of the American Constitution and the First Amendment to it. The rights of the people were preserved by that document for the generations to come.

Today, when we talk about America, it refers to two things: The People, and The Govt. The Government don’t always do what the American people exactly want. Similarly, the American people don’t always agree (or approve) 100% what the Govt. do at home or on the international scene. They are two different parties.

وَلاَ يَجْرِمَنَّكُمْ شَنَآنُ قَوْمٍ أَن صَدُّوكُمْ عَنِ ٱلْمَسْجِدِ ٱلْحَرَامِ

أَن تَعْتَدُواْ وَتَعَاوَنُواْ عَلَى ٱلْبرِّ وَٱلتَّقْوَىٰ وَلاَ تَعَاوَنُواْ

عَلَى ٱلإِثْمِ وَٱلْعُدْوَانِ وَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَدِيدُ آلْعِقَابِ
“… And let not the hatred of some people in

(once) shutting you out of the Sacred Mosque

lead you to transgression (and hostility on your

part). Help one another in righteousness and piety,

but help not one another in sin and rancor.

Fear Allah, for Allah is strict in punishment.”

(al-Quran 5:2)

Now, when the people in other countries curse America or protest against its unjust (or inhuman) actions in the world, the American Govt. is at fault and should take the blame. The majority of the American people don’t always approve those actions (though the American Congress or the Senate may approve them). That Congress and the Senate is like the Parliament of any other country where you can influence the members (or even bribe them). They can sell out the rights and interests of the people for their own rights and interests. Wherever there are human beings, this would happen. Only the percentage would be different, according to the characters of the nations.

يَا أَيُّهَآ ٱلَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ كُونُواْ قَوَّامِينَ لِلَّهِ شُهَدَآءَ بِٱلْقِسْطِ

وَلاَ يَجْرِمَنَّكُمْ شَنَآنُ قَوْمٍ عَلَىۤ أَلاَّ تَعْدِلُواْ ٱعْدِلُواْ هُوَ

أَقْرَبُ لِلتَّقْوَىٰ وَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ خَبِيرٌ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ
“O you who believe! Stand out firmly for Allah,

as witnesses to fair dealing, and let not the hatred

of others to you make you swerve to wrong and

depart from justice. Be just, that is next to piety;

and fear Allah. For Allah is well-acquainted

with all that you do.”

(al-Quran 5:8)

People in other countries should not forget that the American people always stand up and raise voice against injustice and oppression, whether in Cambodia, Vietnam, Korea, China, Russia, Middle East, Nicaragua, etc., etc. They take out protest marches, demonstrations and sometimes occupy the premises (like Wall Street) to show their just and honest sentiments for justice, peace and the Right thing. I have personally participated in many protest demonstrations (about Palestine, Iraq war, etc.) in front of the White House, along with the whites and blacks. Most of the times, people in foreign countries don’t understand it and they curse the American People for the faults of the American Govt. They should know the difference between the two. They should know that America is the country that brought a sitting President (Bill Clinton) to the court of justice.

There are instances when the American people feel ‘ashamed’, but there are a lot more instances that make them ‘proud’ for upholding the integrity, sanctity and honor of Humanity (human rights).

Jesse Venture is a very interesting guy. We may not agree with everything he says but one thing is certain. He feels the pain that people are going through due to injustice, oppression or other unfair practices on the part of the powerful ruling few. He is a fighter (was a WWF wrestling champion!) and is known for his outbursts. He was the Governor of Minnesota state (in America) and worked for the welfare of the people. He hated the American (corrupt) system so much that after many years of struggle (fighting for the ‘right’ thing), he left his country and settled in Latin America (in Mexico). I remember well when I lived in America and Jesse Ventura was a Governor. He was known for his funny and sometimes controversial statements. Actually, every politician makes such statements from time to time.

“I view the United States today, much like East Berlin.

And I’m off the grid. I’ve tried for 20 years to warn the

country about the Democrats and Republicans, and

nobody’s listening. I now view the United States from

the outside, and I don’t like what I see,”

                                                         --- Jesse Ventura

********************************************

Here’s what Wikipedia tells us about him:

“James George Janos (born July 15, 1951), better known by his stage name, Jesse Ventura, is an American politician, actor, author, naval veteran, and former professional wrestler who served as the 38^th Governor of Minnesota, from 1999 to 2003. Ventura served as a U.S. Navy Underwater Demolition Team member during the period of the Vietnam War. After leaving the military, he embarked on a professional wrestling career from 1975 to 1986, taking the ring name ‘Jesse "The Body" Ventura’. He had a long tenure in the WWF (World Wrestling Federation) as a performer and color commentator, and was inducted into the Federation's Hall of Fame in 2004. Ventura also pursued a film career, appearing in films such as Predator (1987).”

“Ventura left office in 2003, deciding not to run for re-election. After leaving office, Ventura became a visiting fellow at Harvard University’s John F. Kennedy School of Government in 2004. He has since also hosted a number of television shows and has written several political books. Ventura remains politically active and currently hosts a show on Ora TV called ‘Off the Grid’. He has publicly contemplated a run for President of the United States in 2016.”

As we know that nobody is perfect, we may disapprove certain things he stands for (as a politician). But generally speaking, Jesse Ventura is a nice guy.

He hosts a TV show called “Off the Grid”. He is very critical of the government’s excesses and curtailing the rights of the people. Recently, he blasted the administration accusing it of making America a ‘police state’. Click on the link below to watch his interview video:

Jesse Ventura goes off grid,

“so the drones can't find me”.

Surveillance drones haven't started hovering outside and above the homes of Americans en masse just yet, but former Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura claims he's left the United States just in case.

Ventura, a 62-year-old professional wrestler-turned-politician, says his new Ora TV program 'Off the Grid' is being filmed in secret somewhere in Mexico where the all-seeing eye of American unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones, don't have a chance of finding him.

Speaking to CNBC on Tuesday from an “undisclosed location” south of the border, Ventura said there was a reason he doesn't reveal his each and every movement.

“I’m off the grid. I move about with my TV show so that the drones can’t find me and you won’t know exactly where I am,” Ventura said.

According to Ventura, his Ora TV program will continue to broadcast “as long as we have solar power and we can reach the satellite.”

“I view the United States, today, much like East Berlin. And I’m off the grid. I’ve tried for 20 years to warn the country about the Democrats and Republicans, and nobody’s listening,” he said

“I now view the United States from the outside, and I don’t like what I see,” added Ventura, who won Minnesota's gubernatorial election back in 1998. “You know what the favorite T-shirt was off the grid down here a couple years ago? A picture of [former President] George Bush, and it said weapon of mass destruction. Is that the way we want the United States portrayed throughout the world? I don’t think so.”

Ventura's remarks on CNBC came only days after he made a similar comment to veteran broadcaster Larry King on the newsman's own Ora TV production, Politicking.

“I can't do this show and talk about what I want to talk about in the United States,” Ventura said of 'Off the Grid.' “They are locked down up there,” he said, again from an undisclosed location.

Ventura equated his online-only program as being a twenty-first century version of Radio Free Europe, the US-sanctioned network that shared a western take on the news of the world among the people of communist countries after the second World War.

“Remember Radio Free Europe? This is Internet Free America with Jesse Ventura,” he told King. “Broadcasting across the grid, off the grid, back to the United States, Jesse is allowed speak freely without drones hovering over his head and tracking him down,” the ex-governor insisted.

And according to Ventura, his new endeavor is also helping to employ Mexicans who might otherwise attempt to permeate the jobs market in America, much to the chagrin of the perpetually unemployed.

“I’m a job creator,” Ventura said during the CNBC segment on Tuesday. “And I’m not only creating jobs, putting Mexicans to work, I’m stopping them from running across the border now and taking our jobs, because my whole staff said that if I wasn’t down here, and I didn’t have them, they’d be coming up to America, looking for jobs.”

Drone Surveillance:

(February 2014):

The US Federal Aviation Administration has projected that upwards of 30,000 drones will be deployed in American airspace by the end of the decade, and law enforcement agencies including the Federal Bureau of Investigation are already relying on unmanned aerial vehicles to track down dangerous criminals.

Should Ventura decide to return, though, then he may want to consider crossing back into the US at Mexico's border with California: lawmakers there advanced a measure last week that would outlaw warrantless drone surveillance in most instances. The US Department of Homeland Security will likely nevertheless continue to use drones to patrol that very same international crossing, but a mishap off of California's Pacific Coast last month lowered the number of DHS drones to only nine: a tenth UAV was crashed a few miles from San Diego after an onboard malfunction was detected, destroying the multi-million-dollar aircraft.

Reuters adds :

(Sept. 29, 2014)

(Reuters) - California Governor Jerry Brown vetoed a bill that would have placed strict regulations on how law enforcement and other government agencies can use drones, his office said on Sunday.

The measure, which passed the state's Senate and Assembly with broad support, would have required law enforcement agencies to obtain a warrant before using an unmanned aircraft, or drone, except in emergencies such as a fire or a hostage-taking.

"There are undoubtedly circumstances where a warrant is appropriate. The bill's exceptions, however, appear to be too narrow," Brown said in his veto message.

"The era of govt. surveillance continues," the bill's author, Republican Assemblyman Jeff Gorell, tweeted on Sunday evening. He expressed disappointment over the veto.

The measure faced opposition from law enforcement groups, including the state's police chiefs and sheriff's associations, as well as the Los Angeles District Attorney.

Idaho and Virginia have also passed laws restricting uses of pilot-less aircraft because of privacy concerns.
