This neo-con invasion is producing ‘bill of rights’ and ‘constitution’ not great wars.

<<In response to just one paragraph of MAGGIE LEDFORD LAWSON.. Message #45634 from Raymond Duray at Mar 2, 2004 11:01 PM

The fatal legend of pre-emptive war …….

German history shows the perils of Washington's new strategy
“Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.” -- Voltaire
Much of the ideology behind current American foreign policy parallels a belief system that took root in Prussia under Frederick the Great and bore poisonous fruit in the Nazi era. The notion that pre-emptive war is a legitimate tool of foreign policy, sold to the American public by the Bush White House, became increasingly popular in Germany in the period leading up to the Second World War. Likewise, the idea of exceptionalism, entitling the U.S. government to force its views on others because the American way of life is best, parallels a commonly held German belief in that nation’s cultural superiority.>>

''In 1979, 90 per cent of Afghans were illiterate. Two decades of war have made the situation worse, and Afghanistan now has the highest rate of illiteracy in the world. Education experts warn that the country may remain functionally illiterate for generations to come. In many parts of the country, particularly rural areas, girls were prohibited from attending school. The education sector operates at an extremely basic level as women – who used to make-up the majority of teachers – were forced to stop work under Talebin.''

Afghan and Iraq wars are not pre-emptive strikes. Talebin were repeatedly asked to hand over the scums of the society that is the top cadre of Al Qaeda, they refused point blank. The people who attacked WTC on 911 lived under protection of regime that had hands tainted with blood of its own people, the rights of women were non existent and anyone with a beard shorter than 6 inches had to suffer street side punishment of few lashes on arse. A visiting foreign Pakistani football team to Kabul had their heads shaven off since the aroused the libido passion of the crowd by wearing shorts. The football ground of Kabul was the killing ground, sports became blood sport, a country totally dipped in anarchy under happy confluence of the Sheikh and Omar. Like of Bin Shilb and Kahlid Shiekh Mohammaed and Abu Zubayda planned to execute killing global fatwas for all US citizens at ease and all this happened in connivance with Talebin. The country had following sickening statistics... In 1979, 90 per cent of Afghans were illiterate. Two decades of war had made the situation worse; Afghanistan now has the highest rate of illiteracy in the world, thanks Russian invasion and Talebin rule. Education experts warn that the country may remain functionally illiterate for generations to come. In many parts of the country, particularly rural areas, girls were prohibited from attending school. The education sector operates at an extremely basic level as women – who used to make-up the majority of teachers – were forced to stop working under Talebin.

Neo-cons invasion of freedom from anarchy have made Kabul a city where more than 100,000 girls have been enrolled in new schools just in 2003 school year. The country for first time since invasion from Russia had a Lok jirga and has agreed to some kind of constitutional arrangement.

The idea of exceptionalism of Talebin and Al Qaeda where they were planning to export the revolution arcos the border and made Pakistan a Talebinised state has been averted due to neo con invasion, Omar Osama axis believed in unilateral forced implementation of believes like Nazis, hence the intervention in Afghanistan was actually a war against neo- Nazis, it took some real evil acts culminating on 911 before the eyes of the world open to the oppression by rightist fanatics and extremists under the banner of Islam. The belief commonly held by these extremists that ideological Puritanism allows them to decimate anyone was the genesis of war in Afghanistan and one can see that country left under duress of Talebin ideology would have become a no go area it was already one until 2002, opening of Afghanistan and making of nation forgotten for centuries may have not been an important issue when distance was not dead but in a post distance less world, these frontiers of anarchy with medieval tools can create havoc, the fifth generation advancement can be hampered by stone age devices, it is this bridge that needs to be crossed, it is as bridge that needs vision and passion, there is no instant gratification coming out of it, Bush doctrine attacks the evil at its very core whereas liberal left loony propaganda encourages flings and Clinton like rosy tainted glassed view of the world.

The problems in 2001 stemmed from the post USSR withdrawal from Afghanistan, creation of sanctuaries infested with terror were condoned as matter of policy, political connections were lost and power vacuum within geographic confines led to loonies planning the most daredevil act to close the world down and they did manage to do that the markets closed for period unknown to the modern markets during course of the entire two centuries.

Iraqi atrocities and total disrespect of global commitments were non issues under previous administrations, the cancer flourished and metastases developed all over the body politics of the region, the region that was confluence of mankind tryst with culture and cradle of civilisation was considered as trivial and was left to die that was a strategic blunder which liberal left instant gratification policies cannot appreciate, mind sets of ‘entitlements and affirmative action’ like to throw monies on issues not involve to change the destiny by letting people know how to catch a fish, intervention in Iraq and Afghanistan is about a radical change, a change where war mongers and perpetual Jihadis issues are being replaced by co-existence and love, nations like Pakistan and India have come closer as never before, if their was one catastrophe waiting to happen it was India-Pakistan conflict that could have been triggered by Talbenisation and exportation of those values from Pakistan into northern India, the lost glory of many a Muslims that north of India was ruled by them for centuries still send shudder down many a spines they still day dream and long for a day when green flag be hoisted on pool in Red fort in Delhi, Osama-Omar axis helped create that vision amongst 250,000 lunatics across form Chechnya to Kashmir, these very lunatics today are on run. If all this is a failure than the definition of failure needs to re- written.

In a stroke of genius all this has been swept into history dustbin today the nation are closer than ever before the religious extreme right is on retreat as never before although 2 million Shiites could blood let what they could not under Iraqi despot forty years. For me that very sign of 10th of ashura being commemorated with the kind of zeal where heads of kids are being cut with swords presents to me a freedom that was denied to those millions, much as I abhor the tradition of blood letting in memory of Imam Hussein I do think that I will go all the way to express my adulation for system that allows people to express their believes, the martyrdom of prophets grandson was the treachery of highest order in annals of history, the Iraqi Shiites self flagellate to pay and cleanse for their collective crimes, it is like ‘Passion’ where those who committed the crime of sending Christ to the cross never found peace, the Kufans, who blood let in millions are asking for mercy of their ancestral crime of martyring grandson of propjet and favouring a usurper, I know this history therefore can see the passion inbred in this blood passion of collective self being washed in rivers of blood, it is these freedoms these Iraqis an Sistanis wanted, it is these expression shocking they may be that forms the culture core, tradition and mood of these nation, let them learn, let them be free let them express, the human cycle even after worst of expressions of holocaust like those by Christian Nazis did learn, we have the ability to recover and we will come out of it nice and unsoiled, the world is peaceful as never before, the voices that were caged are free, my salute to Bush for freeing million of girls in Afghanistan and millions of zealots in Iraq their expression is worth the sacrifices that great nation USA once again have to make, some nations have a gift of God that they are harbinger of change, Americans are one, much as anyone this great nation has made many a mistakes and no one should ever doubt that but the positive areas cannot be discounted.

The landings in Normandy and young blood at Normandy that flew like water freed Europe from demagogues in similar vein the sacrifices in our region are turning the history of our region minnows who read history upside down have no business and understanding of these issues. The war that Fredrick the great initiated in 1970 culminated in two great wars, the understanding that neo-con invasion has developed has led new realities take root in our region, look at two new constitutions agreed by Lok Jirga and Iraqi combatants from Shiites to Kurds, who could have thought that Pashtun and Daris will agree on a constitution in Afghanistan and who could have thought that Iraqi a fractious group of varied nationalities will agree to a new constitution this neo-con invasion is producing ‘bill of rights’ and ‘constitution’ not wars. History mutilated is crime of first degree and that is unpardonable sin.

If freedom from Stone Age and propelling of nations from Stone Age to cyber age is a crime definitely neo-cons have been performing that act with great gallantry and fortitude, hallelujahs to them...
