Have you ever though ?
Despite the lion is not an animal native to England, it’s seen as a national animal of England.
Why this strange beast from a far off land represent England?
Is this some Game ?
Just symbolism ?
Or that they are the real heir to 'Kingdom of Judah'
2/n
Apart from the African Lion , Greyhound, Yale, Dragon, Horse, Lion of Mortimer, the Unicorn, Griffin, Bull and Falcon are associated with ' The Family ', but indeed what's charming then a Lion ?
A dragon or Unicorn perhaps !
But won't it be too pagan ?
3/n
Anyways !
Let's move on to the "Great Game"
The game is a common word for hunting too !
The game between RESOURCES and CIVILIZATION .
How will be the routes between a Treasure and Destination ?
CHALLENGING !
Welcome to the world of conflict !
@peterfrankopan
Along the #SuezCanel , the control kept on changing based on various factors, primarily being the lack of resources !
But towards the east stable power houses were there !
So in simple terms three major local players were
1. Arab World
2. Persian Kindgom
3. OTTOMAN Empire
5/n
Now , the Ottoman were the big influencers and controllers of this playfield , guess who did not like it !
Year 1914-1918
The era of great war !
The Germans and others were just a smoke screen is the "Great Game" , the aim was different !
The aim was to take control !
6/n
I guess during the war itself , The West identified the Oil resources in Arabian desert !
The nationalist feelings in Arab world have started .
Yes ! Wahhabism was pre existing , but it got a new resources to finance itself !
OIL
7/n
Now Post WW 1
Some nations were understanding the game , Nationalist feelings against occupiers was rising !
Even the occupiers have found the new treasure for Future , so best thing was to keep the Nations in infighting and race of power struggle !
8/n
Will cite an example,
Post WW1 a movement was started by Ottomans !
The Khilafat Movement , which is also sometimes in our study books deliberately called as non-cooperation movement ( खिलाफ) !
But they don't tell it was for restoration of Ottoman Khilafat !
@INCIndia 9/n
Middle East has one more funny thing !
If u want to control Eastern side , show them fear of RUSSIAN
If you want to control the Western side , Show them fear of AMERICA
Amid all this Ottoman become ,
progressive, secular republic in independent Turkey.
The year was 1923
10/n
So , the Khilafat movement was now of no use for Turkey & they denounced it !
But the light on the end of tunnel for freedom was seen both by Muslim League and erstwhile INC !
Obviously it was promoted by 'The Kingdom' and you got a permanent fault line which isn't resolved !
Look around from Africa till Bay of Bengal , how many fault lines does " Commonwealth" have , and they are suffering it till date !
Because it's what it's thought of , "Resource"
Do you really think , that boundary disputes were a silly mistake ?
It's was designed.
12/n
Now, the west has very less use of 'COMMONWEALTH' and oil was new love !
So the great games began in Middle - East .
All as per their gameplans started controlling respective areas of Interest !
13/n
Few bent to the rules set by their influencers , few struggled for establishing their own kingdoms with ZERO negotiations .
Few won and Few lost , but overall west triumphed , as the aim was Resource !
14/n
So to overall understand the ME , there are three power houses, with good leadership established with three distinctive ideological narratives !
Saudi - Al-Wahhābiyah
Iran - Shia nationalism
Turkey - Sunni ideology with Sufi mystism .
The era was of COLD WAR as we know it
15/n
Since the beginning of Cold war till 'The
Intifada' , regimes were made and destroyed , with Only three constants.
Everyone has its ' Greater Shaitan' and 'Lesser Shaitan' to increase their influence !
Overall ME was fuming ! I still don't know whom Daesh sold its oil ?
16/n
Welcome to 21st Century !
Take any study , report or fact they all scream one thing !
THE ASIAN CENTURY !
Its 2021 , it's delayed but it can't be avoided.
Now guess who will not like this dominance ?
Like yesteryears wars are not an option for dominance .
SOFT POWER
17/n
This is the century of soft power !
U have seen a change in the stand of 'World Powers' !
Even ME is reforming , but the radical template will take time to removed.
It's even opportunity for some in ME to increase their influence and dream of reviving it's History !
18/n
Turkey has been always on the right side of power balance , keep control of things and be valuable to west .
They have always used 'Iron Glove and Valvet fist ' (It's deliberate , because they aren't military might)
Recently ,the way they are using soft power is amazing !
19/n
Because of this power shift towards Asia , even our #Loanistan is trying to change !
After being kicked by Arabs , now they are the new Turks !
When their plane crosses over Ankara, The pilot shouts in his full might 'AOA ' and gets a cold reply from ATC ' Good Morning'
😂
20/n
As the Asian region is moving out of hands of West, they have only one saviour , who has been on the right sight of history always .
That's why it's trying to consolidate the power on religious and historical lines, and the fool #Loanistan is assisting it .
21/n
Now in a full circle I bring my argument back to The British .
- How and why the #Loanistan was created .
- What's Britain's reaction in Indo-Pak issues ?
- Recently how their MPs were reacting ?
- #FarmersProtest and their reaction !
COINCIDENCE ?
22/n
In 1919 , Indian population and freedom movement was fooled by ' Khilafat '
Will they try to do so again ?
I have my theories .
Can that year be 2023 ?
In the Asian Century , it's imperative to have a ' Strong Govt ' , will our REAL ADVERSARIES ' like it ?
23/n
In the 'Khilafat Movement ' , there was an interesting character Abdur Rahman Peshawari AKA Turk Lala !
Guess , you must not have heard about him.
But can anyone guess why he is Important for Turkish-Loanistan recent affair ?
How does he fit in all this game ?
24/n
Turkey knows how to use History , project best , hide worst and be on the right side .
They know the layout of OBOR .
They know who controls the routes between Asia and Europe will be the wealthiest .
That's why so much emphasis on the Unity, Ummah and Revival of History.
25/n
So what's the connection of Abdur Rehman Peshawari ?
"Kashmiri man from Peshawar who went to the Ottoman Empire to aid them in the Balkan wars"
He will be the main character of the upcoming joint Turkish-Pakistani TV show
Aim - Be anywhere support struggle of Pasha !
26/n
Recently , a lot has been invested on the ' Culture ' and 'Cultural Warfare' .
2021 - till 2024 election is a very important and delicate period which will decide the Future .
'Toolkits' will need to be predicted and countered beforehand.
27/n
Hope all this revival series of GAMES are not part of erstwhile THE GREAT GAME .
Once we were fooled in name of Khilafat Movement , hope it's not done again !
Because first pic is history !
Therefore, flagging
