Decision vs. Indecision
I have always been a believer that indecision always leads one to the ruin, be it in personal life,business world, economic management, politics or military warfare. No one knows for certain,whether it was the right or wrong when the decisions are taken. In majority cases, the Actors tendto defer decision as safe way out to meet the popular demand or opinion.Only the decision makers change the world. They dictate the events. In most cases, the decisionmaker wins. He starts slowly but surely on way to success. He is normally a quick learner. Initially,his success rate is low; hardly 30% or 3 out of 10 decisions prove correct. However, when the timepasses by, his success rate improves progressively. There comes a stage when 7 or 8 of 10decisions prove right, and the intended move works. The decider finally prevails. He is called the“Leader” in truest sense, in any field he is engaged in.There is a caveat to above belief. If one analyzes the failure rates, he would invariably find that thedecision maker relied on the expertise of others instead of using his own judgment ordiscriminating abilities. A good leader always seeks the opinion of others, listens to varioussources, never allows him to be influenced by the coterie of advisers, but finally takes decisiononly after using his own understanding and common sense. He knows pretty well that an Advice isonly an Advice, not the dictate of others to be his own decision.A wavering mind or indecisive mind is the root of most problems or the troubles everywhere. Aconfused investor does not make the decision to buy or sell just because others are telling him todo so. He therefore loses physically or by missed opportunity. A wavering businessman misses theopportunity by not taking some inherent risk. A leader of the household loses when he does not

And a political leader or Central Banker loseout by not recognizing the obvious, following the beaten path or popular opinion for fear of takingblame later for his possible wrong actions. He kills the spirit of innovation or revolt against mindset theories that work no longer.
Where the President George W Bush does fits in – in the caveat? 
 
George W Bush, the President of United States, was a decider in most of the cases. He neverwavered in taking decision except in last stages of his presidency. He started off 8 years ago in anact of aberration by defeating narrowly Al Gore. Later, he defeated John Kerry convincingly.In 8 years of leadership, he demonstrated convincingly that he was always an avid listener to hiscoterie of advisers. He trusted them blindly, almost religiously. As a true leader, he never botheredabout media or what other people thinks of him. A leader is one who does what he thinks is right.At the same time, he excessively relied on so called expertise of his advisers and allowed theiropinion to sway his personal decision. As result, he made disastrous policy moves on practically allfronts. He progressively made 8 wrong moves out of 10 chances.
Parental Influence on the President 
He also allowed him to be dictated by his father George Henry Bush, ex-President, from whom heinherited the ignominious legacy of people like Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld, who wereadmittedly the distasteful war mongers. He also inherited his father’s hatred for Saddam Hussein,Palestine, Hezbollah, Hamas, Assad of Syria and love for Israel.He followed him like obedient son forgetting that his father was defeated by the American peopleand he should not have had any influence in his policy making. Most of his vital decisions weremade by him not in the White House but in his Texas Ranch or Camp David in close consultationwith his father. In short, United States was ruled by Proxy for 8 years by his father George HenryBush, Senior. He became the puppet of his advisers who were the brand loyal to his father, an ex-President.
 Axis of Evil 
His own invention was intense dislike of Iraq, Iran and North Korea. He coined a few phrases“Axis of Evil” and “War on Terror”. By feigning this terror, he undercut the privacy of Americans,whipped up patriotic feelings by compulsion in enacting Patriots Act to quell any revolt against hispresidency.
Iraq War and Troubles in Middle East 
He must have played with lots of military toys during his childhood days. His advisers Dick Cheneyand Donald Rumsfeld saw that as an opportunity to play upon his weakness to wage a massivewar on Iraq on completely falsified military intelligence reports of Weapons of Mass Destructions.How could only a few people in CIA and Pentagon find conclusive evidence of WMD when over131,000 US soldiers could not find even a single piece of evidence of such weapons after almost 5years of presence in and visiting every nook and corner of Iraq?A true leader is one who may make mistakes but corrects immediately once he became aware of.He does not flinch a bit in retracing obvious wrong, and does not drag on like a gambler in thecasinos on the strips of Las Vegas or Atlantic city. He does not care whether the world or his ownpeople will laugh at him when he was retracing his mistakes or an act of errors and aberration. As
 
Anil M Selarka (Kalidas) A Decisive President thoroughly Wasted – George W Bush Page 3 of 7President of United States, he was supposed to rectify the errors immediately and saved the livesof several thousands American soldiers and hundreds of thousands of Iraqi people.He could not afford to say that he got the faulty intelligence reports, he got his numbers wrong onthe economy, and he could not forecast the troubles due to Katrina and California wild fires. AsPresident of Unites States he was in supreme command, and he should have known or foreseenthe troubles months ahead. He was supposed to be visionary, not illusory, and if he were to act andbehave like an ordinary American, he had no right to or place in the coveted throne of WhiteHouse. He was supposed to use his brain, intelligence and common sense rather than relying uponhis advisers in White House, Defense, Pentagon, Treasury, Fed, and Commerce.He was so much pre-occupied with the Iraq, Afghanistan and Al Qaeda that he almost forgot themap of United States and economic troubles brewing like volcano about to erupt. While he sat inthe White House, his mind was always travelling in the rugged ravines of Iraq and tough terrainsof Afghanistan. He sought to quick fix the economic troubles by printing out billions of dollars of rebate checks when the nation was seized with massive budget and trade deficits. In short, whilehe took various decisions promptly, he was always wrong. He never applied his own mind he wassupposed to as the President of United States.
Savior of unborn lives and Killer of existing Adult humans and Children
 
He was pleasantly against killing of unborn human lives by opposing Abortion in present form. At the same time, he was cruelest democratic dictator killing in excess of 1 million Iraqis byconstantly bombarding them from several miles in the Air especially when the Iraqis did not haveAir Power to defend themselves. He demonized the democracy and destroyed Iraqi heritage,centuries old monuments, beautiful palaces, mosques, exquisite pieces of architecture, and madethe beautiful Iraq into the rubbles of destructions.He excavated over 180 bodies of so called torture deaths in early 80’s of Saddam regime andarranged for his death in fake trials, while he went on killing over a million Iraqis and dumpingthem into mass graves with impunity. Who is more heinous - Saddam who killed only 180 Kurdsin early 1980 or George Bush who killed over 1 million Iraqi civilians and soldiers during his reignof terror? While he was promoting the cause of “War on Terror”, he himself was practicing thereign of terror in various parts of Middle East – viz. Iraq, Lebanon, Palestine, Afghanistan andborder towns of Pakistan.George W Bush has proved to be the most murderous political leader in the world since the daysof Adolph Hitler during World War II.He virtually destroyed Lebanon by instigating Israel to cause the maximum damage by aerialattacks of most ruthless kind, knowing pretty well that Lebanon did not have any air power todefend them. Lebanon was also reduced to rubble by granting Israeli the most lethal “bunkerbusting bombs” (BBB) killing hundreds of innocent Lebanese adult and children.He engineered the war on Afghanistan under the garb of “War on Terror” with ostensible cause tosearch and destroy Osama Bin Laden in the most rugged mountainous place in the world. When hefound the going tough there, he invited NATO to replace American forces to fight the OBL and hisAfghan army. NATO foolishly obliged him and lost hundreds of soldiers of constituent countries,saving the original attackers – Americans.
