Iraq Insurgency and Bollywood

What is happening in Iraq is appalling to say the least. A lot of people are dying. A lot of people are to be blamed for it. Mainly Saudi Arabia and Kuwait and then US and Britain. In US both the father and son duo i.e. Bush senior and junior can be held responsible.
Iraq invaded first Iran with US backing in the 1980's, that was direct response to Iran revolution which diminished the US influence as the Shah of Iran got deposed.
Far earlier to that, there was the 'Great' Britain which ruled over half of the globe and they along with the Indian soldiers invaded the Ottoman empire in First World War and dissected it into small units. If we see the present day map of Middle East we find many of the lines are just straight lines.
Thus the map of Middle East was drawn the board rooms of Great Britain and Britain used the "Indian colony" foot-soldiers to defeat the Ottoman soldiers. Britain also side-by-side helped the Jews establish their home land in the Middle East, the present day state of Israel. This they did by forcefully expelling the Palestinians from their rightful lands. They did 50% of the job and the balance 50% was done and is done by the inheritors of the British legacy, namely the 'European descendants' of the State of Israel.
The British aim was the domination of Middle East and particularly destruction of Muslim caliphate. The British aim was to "divide and rule". Everyone knows, 'united we stand, divided we fall'. British also knew about this. Thus they followed 'divide and rule'. In Middle East the same policy was being followed by the British colonialists.
The successors of British colonialists were the Americans and they not only maintained the status quo but also furthered it. Saddam Hussein dream of incorporating Kuwait as a province of Iraq was not to happen. His invasion in 1990 was undone by a huge counter-invasion resulting in hundreds of thousands of casualties and then back-breaking sanctions which killed millions. If all that was not enough, Bush junior invaded Iraq fresh in 2003 and then casualties began to mount and mount till it reached millions.
All the time Indians are smiling and are very happy. Because more of Iraqis and Yemenis and Egyptians and Syrians die, better it is for Indian Hindus. Mainly, we can see the Bollywood influence in the World.
Because when for example people from Iraq die, their intellectuals are wiped out. Artists, writers, and their nascent people who would have created an Iraqi identity in the world is getting wiped off.
Iraqis then look around and see. What can they do. Sick and tired of killings and mayhem, they would like to get some entertainment. The fact is they can get it but not in the way they would have wanted or liked. What do they find. They find movies, songs and serials from a land not far away and that land is Bollywood. Bollywood is mainly Hindu oriented. We can see stars like Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan and all other Muslims having a Hindu identity and doing all kind of un-Islamic activities, including praying to Hindu Gods in the movies.
Recent song from 'Yeh Jawani Hai Diwani', 'Baghdad se leke Dilli via Agra' is a case in point. Hindus from Bollywood want to dominate the Islamic world and countries like Pakistan, Iraq and Afghanistan.
What a one time 5 million USD Indian Bollywood movie can do, 1.5 billion dollars per month being spent by US Military cannot achieve. It is a Win win for India and Bollywood all the way.
And not only for Bollywood but for Indian immigrants in those countries as well. More of as Iraqis and Syrians and Pakistanis die in attacks and counter attacks their place is being taken by Indian immigrants. Just like in post Second World War Germany, when a lot of people from other European countries poured into Germany to rebuild the war torn country, similarly millions of Indians are pouring into the Middle East and they bring the Bollywood influence with them. The Bollywood heroes and heroines are the ones who would then 'dominate' the Middle East. Iraqis turn around and find the Indians. Most Indians work like contractors and Iraqis or Afghanis may kill each other but they would not harm these 'outsiders' like Indians.

Watched one more movie on Videocon D2H. And that movie is 'Fukrey'. Movie is okay for a comfortable one time watch. It is also worth watching according to me. In fact it is better than what you have 'impression' about it before watching it.
Today watched another movie. "Rockstar". I liked the movie. Too good. Worth watching
