Regrettably, even today, the great blame game is still the favourite political game of the world's major powers. It is being used by major powers to justify whatever actions they need to take against other nations to consolidate and protect their own power and advance their privileges.
Those naive people who think that they will be safe from harm and destruction if they embrace the ideology of the most powerful nations and form alliances with them are sadly mistaken. This is because when it comes to the crunch, the major powers will still impose their will by the sheer power of their military. No one will be safe when the titans clash. No one is safe from subversion, espionage, illegal sanctions, attacks and invasions.
That is why the arms race has never gone out of fashion, and every major power is continually strengthening their already over-powering military prowess to protect and advance their own interests.
All the propaganda about righteousness, justice, freedom, democracy, national security, national interest, rightful authority, historical rights, access, cyber hacking, technology rights, trade practices and human rights are but the outward and public postures by various major powers to justify their self-serving actions. They will trot out their blame game on any of these pretexts whenever and wherever necessary, and in a heartbeat, to justify whatever actions that they decide to take.
That is why the arms race is intensifying all over the world. And that is why even mid-sized and smaller powers are finding it necessary to build up their own political, economic and military infrastructure to survive in the law of the jungle of power competition out there. The world's market for lethal weapons is getting bigger by the year for this very reason. The age of vicious superpower rivalry and power alignment and alliances is truly an age of clear and present danger for the whole world.
It is therefore vital for all nations, big and small, to be alert to the vicious blame game and to take the necessary actions to stay above water and stay above the fray.
One can only hope that the much dreaded existential threats of climate change, environmental devastation, deadly new warfare, and nuclear annihilation will eventually become the priority concerns in every nation.
Hopefully, the whole humankind will wake up to the real danger of self-inflicted human extinction, and humankind will make a concerted effort to move to a stage of mutual accommodation and genuine peaceful co-existence.
Clearly, that is the only way human race and all living things on earth can be saved from total extinction.
