Time of conventional warfare seems to be over now. This is an era of undeclared , unconventional wars in which brainwashing of the youth plays a very important part. The noted psychologist, Sigmund Freud was reported to have once said ‘Give me a child of six months and I can mould his mind the way I liked’. The suicide bombers are important tool in the hands of lunatic fringe which want to enforce its peculiar religious sect on humanity . The budding youth, mostly teenagers, are brainwashed by the lunatic fringe in such a manner that they consider all other people who don’t toe the line of their particular school of religious thought as misguided people who do not deserve to live in this world and are, therefore, worth annihilation . Small wonder they feel no qualms in blowing them up with the incendiary material hidden by them under their suicide jackets. In the process they also embrace death as they had been made to believe by their religious bigwigs that this act of theirs would earn them an automatic entry into the paradise where the houris would be waiting for them with open arms.
The disciples of Hasan Bin Sabah who were instrumental in the killing of dozen of people were all thoroughly brainwashed teenagers . He eliminated his adversaries by getting them knifed through the brainwashed youth. Had Mongol warrior Halaghu Khan not destroyed their artificial paradise in Iraq during the course of his attack on Iraq the evil spread by Hasan bin Sabah would have caused many more deaths at the hands of the brainwashed young men. It is, therefore, extremely essential that youth of every country is imparted a balanced education in which stress should be on qualities like tolerance, moderation and accommodation of everybody’s viewpoint instead of forcing any opinion on anybody through use of force.
