AFTER GADDAFI, WHO IS NEXT?

(Hafiz Muhammad Noman, Karachi)

At last, Moammar Gaddafi’s chapter was closed after a forty-two-year-long-era of his regime! The man, who was supposed to be brave and bold due to his speeches and prestige, his last words were “Don’t shoot me!” that shows the reality of a man’s internal, hidden fear of death! Owing to the fiasco at fleeing from Libya, he found a hideout in the pipeline but his rivals caught him and shot him dead! It can be said that the sun of brutality and massacring the opposition by General Gaddafi has set whereas people look forward to happiness and a change in their way of lives soon!

As General Gaddafi treated harshly and killed his rivals in abundance for forty two years caused to create anarchy in Libya and the opposition became united and uprising in Libya prevailed slowly time by time. The main cause of concern for the opposition was a forty-two-year-long regime that was no longer bearable for them!

Considering the Arab Spring, we can see that those Arab countries in which a dictator or a ruler is ruling for a long time, the rebellion is increasing there to defeat the dictatorship! Also a factor to seriously consider is that America and its allies along with European countries that seem to have their own interests in the Arab countries are also involved in the proxy war! Hence, the Arab countries in which USA and its allies find oil reserves, they either support the cruel rulers to bag their interests in the countries or if the rulers oppose US and its allies, they are put aside and uprising against the rulers is increased by Proxy War! Its main example is available in Libya when US struck 112 Tomahawks missiles at Libya that cost 7.28 billion US dollars approximately. Apparently it feels that US was sympathetic to the Libyans but actually striking the missiles were just an investment in Libya and perhaps, it would receive its cost occupying the oil reserves of Libya that is its main purpose!

However, the Muslim or Arab leaders never learned lessons from these sorts of the incidents! Previously Saddam Hussein was hanged up and now Gaddafi was shot dead! In Yemen, rebellion against Abdullah Salih is increasing whereas Bashar-ul-Asad of Syria is busy in crushing his opposition! But the real issue in Syria is based on religious sects! Bashar-ul-Asad being an Ehl-e-Tashi is massacring the Sunnis! Amazingly, USA is trying to wash the label of terrorism on his shirt threatening Syrian president Bashar-ul-Asad to avoid religious extremism in the country! Anyhow, the Arab spring is spreading fast and now it has started engulfing other countries as well including America and Britain! The politics in the whole world is changing! People are raising their voices in favour of their rights and the situation expresses the arrival of good days! Let’s see who is next after Gaddafi?!!
