Why are you doing this "effort" to alienate yourself in place of blaming the country and government responsible for this?

Because I believe that causes of events are other events, and not objects. To blame an event (or a series of events) on a person (or a group of people) is a premature causality sink (e.g. "Why did X do evil thing? Because X is an evil person" -- this is not an explanation, it just puts an end to rational inquiry).
