War against terrorism or War for terrorism

Abstract

War against terrorism is a cliché in the twenty-first century. This paper focuses on the hypothesis that the on-going war against terrorism is infact a war for terrorism. As it is usually considered that America is the only superpower therefore, balance of power in the world suits America. It should not go against any other nation. Contrary to this, it is waging war against weaker nations and spreading terror by killing, maiming and threatening innocent people of Afghanistan and Iraq and admonishing Iran, and South Korea. America is not ready to look into the reality even republicans have lost midterm elections held in November 2006. American foreign policy is still pursuing its designs of capturing world economic resources in the name of so-called war against terrorism. It is infact, a war for terrorism. That is a direct corollary of American fear of becoming impoverished economically in future. It is preparing itself to have a sustainable economic development that based on fulfilling the needs and demands of the present generations without depleting the needs and demands of the future generation. Pursuing such ventures will have an impact on Asia and especially on South Asia.
