MINDSET OF A HUMAN BOMB
Human mind has infinite potential and nothing ranging from the moon to stars is out of its reach. Every emotion that generates within us is a result of what we feel and see and adapt from our surroundings. Entire human society works hard day and night for its survival and to earn its daily bread.
In such a scenario I just felt the need to asses that
exactly what is it that can influence someone to kill one’s self and just with the need to cause destruction. “Fidayein” or human bomb is the most powerful weapon that terrorists use these days. It was first used by an idea that inculcated in the mind of Al Zawahiri, a renowned world terrorist in Egypt in the late 80’s. It has resulted in major destructive events and was the method used by terrorist organization to carry out killing of former prime minister of India Mr Rajiv Gandhi and to carry over the most remarkable destructive terror attack of this century on 11 September 2001 against United States of America in bombardment of world trade center. Now the point here is not whether we use a lady or an entire passenger aircraft as the medium, the point here is this mindset which is strange to our human senses. I mean even as a child we feel fear from dark, thirst for water or hunger towards food, as an adolescent and youngster we all feel attraction towards opposite sex, in old age we feel a want and need for care and time from younger ones, but what on earth have led to this form of action i.e. to kill one’s self for a cause where we all know that even a soldies battles till its last breath then is the human bomb really carrying with him any cause and motive and what is it that this mind of someone who carries such a task functions like?
These questions want answers, and as a matter of fact, I know these minds are motivated by something more than greed and money.
It’s a result of a philosophy where this mind believes that no one who is killed is innocent. On analyzing all this, I reached a certain conclusion that the people who carries such a task and volunteers to be a human bomb have a certain belief within them, its that this life of them belongs to the god (which is their cause) and all those who gets killed are either the supporters or people belonging to the same religion or sect or they are enemies. Now if they are supporters then by killing them the destructive element have made them martyr and have done a good to them. And if they are enemy (mostly people belonging to different viewpoint and culture) then it was a part of task to kill them.
Don’t we all believe that we all are born to carry on a specific task? Like to be a doctor or singer or writer, similarly the mind of this human bomb is programed to believe that he or she is born to do this work. It is this mindset that has to be changed. All of us, me, you and the system itself are responsible for this. The lack of education is responsible for this. This is much more than any issue and any cause, this is much more than the entire political problems that results in terror. It’s much more than that!! How can u threaten someone who loves to die? It’s the inability that me being an engineer is unable to use the net, the media of communication in such a way that these terror organizations do. The videos and the promotional footages that they come up with, that leads to such a mindset. They have the power to persuade with the most logical manner, the will to cause destruction, they are motivated much more than anyone of us.
Its nothing to do with Muslim religion and shariyat or anything, it’s a question on our human instinct to survive and our basic love of life. The French revolution took place, the Indian freedom struggle succeeded and none of these used self killing for the cause. A martyr is the one who fights till the last breath and not someone who hits a vehicle laded with bomb and kills himself in this act. Now I am not a political figure, neither I am aware with the issues of the global cause of terror but all that I know and wants to convey is that anyone who believes that killing himself and hitting an aircraft will give him heaven’s birth is being fooled and used as a pawn and heaven and hell, everything is there is this life, cos there is no life after death. Wake up!! It took one Al zawahiri to go to a prison for 5 years and gets influenced to come up with such an idea. It’s a duty of the system and each one of us to save anyone from thinking so negatively, cos u can kill mahatma Gandhi but not his ideals, similarly u can kill osama bin laden but not his thought and what needs to be cleared is the mindset.
We get only and only one life to live, this humanity is a result of thousand of years mindset where we realised that to live and let live is above all religions and nationalities. Are’nt we all the later generation of that poor looking monkey that we see in our history books. Had we all killed ourselves and fellow living beings for any cause then neither of us would have been alive.
