COLLECTIVE TYRRANY: A MENACE GROWING & RISING.
History saw conflicts and great wars initiated by tyrants. Tyrants who were either
monarchs or dictators. These people gathered their powers through their wealth,
physical strength and immense charisma to command huge armies to commit the
unthinkable atrocities to even the weakest of their adversaries. It is not usual to readin ancient accounts where invading armies killed all the inhabitants of conquered
cities and states, from king to dogs.
Recent great wars also witnessed how one man was able to order genocide. Another
regional conflict enabled one man to command the extermination of one ethnic
group. Such violence became possible because of the absolute powers possessed by
national leaders. During the last world war, Japan invaded vast tracts of Chinese
territories and pillaged cities with the soldiers indoctrinated by an imperial education
system that they were invading and killing inferior human beings.
China, a country molded from ancient conflicts and bloodshed, and was the recipientof brutal Japanese invasion, has risen to become a military and economic power.
Today, its industrial capacity can be compared or might have already exceeded that
of the United States. It has become the regional bully. It had a shooting war with
Vietnam over the Spratlys. It had invaded Tibet and lingered there for such a long
time, trying to erase the Tibetan identity and integrate it with China.
But a regional bully, as its name implies, can only bully weaker neighbors. It cannot
do the same bullying to another regional bully. This is evident in the Taiwan Strait
Crisis. China apparently cooled down in its intent to take Taiwan because the US sent
an armada of powerful warships. That is despite the fact that Taiwan is a province of
China being run by a deposed Chinese regime. Another example is the thenoverstaying colonial powers of Hong Kong and Macau. China never attempted to take
the territories because of the powerful states squatting there.
And because the world has, again allowed despots to grow into bullies, as seen in the
worlds silence in the Tibetan issue; and now the Spratly conflict, China is flexing its
muscle against a weaker neighbor. Imagine a maritime territory being claimed by
China which is just at the doorstep of the Philippines. Its claim in the entire Spratly
Group is absurd.
If unchecked by other world powers, the conflict can escalate into a shooting war.
Much like the Japanese invasion of China when the world, initially, turned its headaway. The world should exert effort to China to submit the conflict to the international
courts. China is only powerful because the world is patronizing its cheap and inferior
products. A boycott of Chinese products will cripple its economy because its local
consumption cannot buy its own overproduction.

The collective tyranny governing China must be overthrown and its government
system democratized, otherwise it will be a repeat of 1930s Manchuria which also
led the many nations to the last world war.
