Premptive Strike with Limited Stockpile-Stalemate

This is my scientific analysis.

There is no possibility of nuclear catastrophe.

That is the good news.

 

The bad news is this war will drag on for at least 3 years. That is until both sides replenish, the used up armour to counteract each other on equal footing, less nuclear arsenal.

Reason.

American Doctrine made for them by Israelite.

Preemptive attack is the best option.

Take the enemy unaware (pants down).

Inflict maximum damage within a short time period (10 days).

Use American Air Force for mopping up operations.

 

There is a caveat here.

They used everything available that are becoming obsolete (with new weapons on the pipeline).

Almost all armor used in the offensive.

Leaving nothing left for defense.

 

The country named Israel was built to produce armor for the entire world.

It is a country built for producing armor for the West.

They did not factor in that their military machinery producing armour would be disabled by ongoing strikes.

 

They are in a dilemma.

They are not accepting that they have depleted most of their stocks.

Unable to replace the armour, this side  of.  3 years, only option left is to look fot third parties with stock.

Russian had this problem but they geared up their product lines.

 

The temporary ceasefire is to assess the damage and replenish the stocks. 

Iran doctrine is to abide by the laws and say yes to all bogus American assurances.

They did not realize they were cheated and deceived.

They were taken off guard, really pants down.

Like Israelite they have depleted their stockpiles and they are reluctant to admit.

They asked help from Russia.

Russians are on overdrive producing weapons with new designs, some borrowed from Iran and some designs borrowed from China.

They could not help Iran with the Ukrainian War in full blast and final stages in sight.

I think they are going all out but Ukrainians are not giving up and they are battle hardened guys.

May even bring surprises in the battle field.

However, Russians have new arsenal including Oreshnic at their disposal.

China stepped in with some armour.

China saw the instant business opportunity. 

Grabbed it with both hands.

They have already helped Pakistan.

Besides, they need to test their weapons in battle conditions.

Iran reluctantly had to ask help from China, since their military machinery is also disabled.

All these developments are good for BRICS, the new kid in town.

Indians do not know which side to bet on.

Russians have a big contingent of Jews among them.

Keeping fingers crossed is their current attitude.

It is completely a different ball game, now.

 

It is easy to begin a war but not that easy to end.

One thing is sure.

Economic meltdown is on the card.

Only the poor will suffer.

 

Ceylon is still reeling from its internal conflict and going through a mounting debt crisis.

Net of Views

 Net of Views 

 

With those two out, I need to summarize the Nets of Views in brief.

There are basically three types of persons, who want to have their views heard loud and clear.
They are the Eternalists, Rationalists and Skeptics.

All are based on afterlife except one group.
 

There is no religion in this world that disputes the existence of afterlife except nihilists or skeptics.

Their views are either based on self realization in Jhana states or rationalization based on one’s own thinking.

One can read ones previous life (Jhana State Five) and based on these experiences some of them formulate that, since there was a past life, there ought to be an eternal life that continue after death.

In some religions merging of self with the eternal self tend to be the essence.
Many selfs are not identified as individual entities but one of a wholesome divine entity.
The next subset in this is that there ought to be a divine creator or God.
There are at least 18 subsets based on eternity.

In this subset, it is the Maha Brahma (may be some of his retinues) who had the grandiose illusion that he was the creator of the world.

The bottom line is, when they consume these planes of lives and exit, they are often reborn in lower form of life often, even lower than human life.
 

It is a pity.
One who has not pursued the Jhana states to clear vision or wisdom sees these as eternal truths and postulate them as their discoveries.

They are the eternalists.

Then there are the skeptics who do not believe in afterlife.

They create the nihilistic view (only one out of 44 views).

There are 44 views (including View of the Buddha) with future life in in perspective.

This is where the category of perception comes into play.

The perception has a void in it and that gap is filled with any view out of the 62 views of reality.
The Brahmajala Sutta is an attempt at Course Correction from Eternalists, Rationalists and Skeptics, not from Divinity but for the Emancipation from ills, wills and imperfections.
That is to untangle from the tangled entanglement of the Wrong View.

That is why Samma Ditti is the first of the Eightfold Pathway.
 

In other words Mithya Ditti is the sure recipe for prolonging agony in the lower worlds of existence.

Once one gets his/her mind out of the Kalama Sutta and the Brahmajala Sutta one is free to delve into enormous Sutta discourses and Abhidhamma (mind you very dry in content) for clear view of Dhamma.

No part of Suttas or Abhdhamma is redundant for a wayfarer.
 

One either needs a true guide or one has to chose his own Sutta or Abhidamma discourses as a guide.

Please read the book of late Prof. A.D.P.Kalansuriya, if one is interested in philosophy.
 

It is heavy reading by the way, but that does not deter you from reading it, in small doses.  

Philosophy is more difficult than Dhamma.
