Why US establishment presently finds the going tough ..

Some authentic estimates predict upto 2,40,000 Americans could perish this Corona season just in US. I have no reason to suspect the  health and hygienic standards of that developed country. I only wish they are the unknown,  unassuming  and unsophisticated ordinary American who cannot afford a visit to the hospital or a private doc, but why ?

Why did US have to suffer this great ignominy, disgrace, penury and destitution this time ? How many countries and it's people do really feel sorry for US this time ? When US went around the world policing people and countries in Asia and the middle east, on what is righteous,  virtuous and principled in this modern world in the American eyes,  little did they think that a 120 nanometer pathogen could in return cause so much destruction and grief in the country.

US past is catching up with it's ignoble past now. Earlier with just threats of terrorist attacks and death, US had the audacity, boldness and dare to attack Afghanistan and Iraq, destabilizing the whole region, disturbing peace and harmony, in the process killing thousands of innocent people and holding the world to ransom. 

Against a 120 nanometer virus, nCovid 19, the might of the US military establishment has come crumbling down, crashing. It's pride is deeply hurt, requesting and in some cases even demanding, other nations for medicines and solace.

May God give its haughty rulers, policy planners and the masses enough humility to understand reality and firstly make peace with the virus and then with the rest of the world.

All the F35s, the B52s  the USS Enterprise and other warships and its military might is a big zero in front of this virus, a big waste at this moment. US is terribly humbled before this 120 nanometer virus ..


Is it also reflective of the sub-standard  and dumb political and economic leadership of the country which is more interested in getting the businesses in US up and running unmindful of the health of the people, than in controlling a global pandemic running riot with people's lives in that great country  !!
