West is not principled. They are always focused on short-term objectives and do not think about the long-term repercussions of their actions. This is their attitude towards not just foreign policy but also personal and professional attitude.
This comes from their mindset from their early days as Neanderthals. Since they had no technology, no tools, no medicine and no assurance of food, they had a hoarding mentality and would accumulate fruits, roots and meat whenever they could before winter. As their survival was not guaranteed, they would make the most of that particular day and had seldom a chance to think like a family, grouping, gathering, etc. Theirs is a more tribalistic nature. It's embedded in their subconscious and comes out in every decision that they make.
Compare this to the traditional Asian civilizations; pre-Islamic Iran, India, China, etc., and you will see that the mindset in our countries has always been more for the long-term since we were always a family-ecosystem-sustained unit as compared to the more tribalistic European and Abrahamic mindset.
Brown munda Rishi Sunak ka Jalwa
Do not get excited yet. This is probably the UK's last-ditch attempt at saving itself. Sunak is on his way out as are the Tories. Labour will complete the Sharia transition in the UK. This means that the UK will become the second Islamic-dominated country to wield nuclear weapons.
Before you think I am joking, remember that the Mughals ruled over the majority of Hindus. Had all Hindus joined hands, not a single Hindu would have been converted and the Mughals would have been driven out 3 centuries earlier.
Compare the current UK population to that era's Hindus in terms of the divided mindset. Muslims will easily take over the UK at this rate. They are not even 10% and command so much power.
