Piles of Garbage

The coastal region of North America was once a haven of American alligators, but by the 1960s, their population had dwindled to near extinction. American scientists specializing in zoology sat down to unravel the mystery of why these American alligators were dying. When investigations were carried out, it was revealed that the emergence of the pesticide (Dichloro-Diphenyl-Trichloroethane) DDT is to blame. This pesticide is present in the flesh of birds that prey on alligators, and it travels through their bodies via insects, which are ingested by the birds as they feed on fields. In these fields, the infamous pesticide DDT was sprayed on crops to kill insects.”

In an effort to save the rare eagle species, a complete ban on DDT was imposed across the United States. However, despite this, no success was achieved. When migratory birds from neighbouring countries migrated to the coastal forests of North America, they became predators of these eagles. The DDT present in their bodies not only ended the reproductive capacity of the young eagles but also led to their demise.

Eventually, scientists decided to transfer the surviving eagle pairs and their eggs to laboratories, where they could be raised in a safe environment and bred. The plan was to reintroduce the young eagles into the forest once their numbers had increased. This program ran successfully for a year, and new pairs were bred in the laboratories. However, when these pairs were released into the forest, they refused to adapt to the new environment. All the pairs bred in the laboratory either died or fell prey to the eternal enemy of the forest, the large-sized Owls.

Out of the hundreds of pairs, only one female managed to survive. Her name was Scarlett. She made a remarkable journey. Scarlett was released into the forest where her ancestors had lived for centuries. However, she made a peculiar move; Scarlett left her in the jungle, where her ancestors had lived for centuries. However, she journeyed far and arrived at the city of ‘Balti Mor’ in the state of ‘Maryland’. There, she transformed a window of a building into her nest.

The scientists were puzzled by how the nature of the eagles had changed. However, they had to face even more bewilderment when all these eagles, which had been transformed from eggs in the laboratory, refused to live or hunt in the jungle. Initially, the scientists had released eagles into the forest just like Scarlett, but they started establishing their nests in urban areas, much like nearby towns, and began inhabiting windows and lamp posts of various buildings, resembling pigeons.Later, the scientists decided to start flying the laboratory-raised eagles in the cities instead of releasing them into the jungle.

The program for the conservation of eagles continued until around the year 10, during which the eagle population increased from 60 to 700, and then the program was discontinued as there was no longer any threat to this rare species. Eagles were seen circling over places where garbage was disposed of in cities, and their population was rapidly increasing even without human intervention.

In today’s North American cities, the eagles of this species are no longer given much importance, like how other common birds reside in the city. These eagles coexist with them, perching and scavenging much like them. Changes in their behavior have occurred; some have built nests in windows and lamp posts of houses instead of mountains, while others have stopped hunting. They scavenge different items from garbage to fill their bellies – they might even consume a dead bird if found, or snatch fledglings from the nests of other birds.

While working to conserve the eagle population, observing changes in their behaviour within the laboratory environment astonished the Americans. They devised a unique idea and now they are implementing this approach all around the world. Whenever they encounter an adversary, they capture it and take it to their laboratory. With their own funding, they raise and nurture it in a controlled environment. However, by the time the adversary is released, its nature has changed, and it becomes inclined towards carrion instead of hunting. This isn’t just a fictional or speculative story; it is the reality of American assistance programs that have spread across the globe.

You can witness American aid programs anywhere in the world, but they are particularly visible in regions where America or its allies are engaged in conflicts. For instance, the Taliban was a significant adversary of the United States in Afghanistan, and even though America has withdrawn, the Taliban remains a strong opposition. However, during the conflict, while the US was bombing villages on one side, it was simultaneously raining dollars in the form of campaigns to teach Afghans etiquette and manners in laboratories, all in an effort to pacify the resistance.

This analogy sheds light on the fact that the United States employs multifaceted strategies to alter the nature of adversaries and ensure their compliance, a phenomenon that has real-world implications and parallels.

Iraq’s land became infamous as the ‘quagmire’ for the Americans, where every day American and allied forces struggled, but even with all their might, they couldn’t achieve their objectives. Despite being the enemy in their eyes, the largest American assistance program was launched in Iraq. Under this program, efforts were made to teach the wild Iraqis modern civilization in the controlled environment of laboratories.

Looking at Pakistan, we see Baluchistan, one of the poorest provinces, where even getting a loaf of bread is a challenge for its people.

However, American assistance programs allocate the most funds for Baluchistan in Pakistan. But instead of relocating these people to the cities’ bright lights, the focus is on educating them. The intention is to teach them how to uplift their own families and their nests, rather than relocating them to the cities or educating them about their heritage.

But it’s essential to remember that the comfortable laboratory life funded by the Americans is only sustainable as long as the nature of the eagles remains unchanged. So that after their nature changes, they will keep searching for their sustenance amidst piles of waste. A prime example of this is when Russian forces withdrew from Afghanistan, thinking that Pakistan and Afghanistan were left with heaps of waste due to the war. Now, these eagles will seek their sustenance from their own resources.Meanwhile, Pakistan paid the heavy price of $125 billion and the sacrifice of 87,000 lives during the war against terrorism, and in return, America, under the guise of friendship, continues to enjoy our ancient enemy, India.

When Pakistan clears away these piles of garbage, the Tryca (America, Israel, and India) immediately supplies their agents within Pakistan with the means to create new piles of garbage for their vulture-like eagles, because they do not want the first Islamic nuclear power to stand on its own in the economic arena in any way. This is why, since the beginning, Tryca is vehemently against the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) that is being developed through Chinese collaboration in Pakistan. First and foremost, they attempted to sow division within the nation over CPEC, but when CPEC commenced with the consensus of all provinces, the Trifecta shifted its efforts towards destabilizing the country and ruining Pakistan-China relations.

Elections are underway in Pakistan under the supervision of the caretaker government, and the nation once again has the opportunity to choose capable, virtuous, and honest individuals from its past to lead the country and demonstrate to the world that we can play a better role in global peace. We must prove that we can contribute to world peace without any interference in our affairs if we are allowed to live without any external meddling. If you have indeed played your role honestly and sincerely, then even on the heaps of garbage, the vultures will come to your doorstep to build nests of gratitude.
