Kurdish Mass Grave
-``The same people that did this are the same people that want to stop me doing this (investigation),'' he told reporters... It is a shame that the ethics of peace marcher remains so indifferent to the images of these ass graves, anyway it was and never about peace it is always about romantic preoccupation with the cheguverean resistance to the imperil might of US.
The same people who designed ‘Anfal’ to quieten down Kurd resistance today form the bulk of those insurgents blowing their own compatriots away to install the minority terror apparatus that may decree Iraqi wealth for a very few than the entire country irrespective of creed and color or sect. These caters in Iraq remind us of bankruptcy of the baathists and highlight to mankind that the regime who had no interest in its own people but to ‘only’ rule them through tyranny should have had no right to exist, a sovereignty that is so ‘blood prone’ needs to be uprooted. These graves remind of the unrighteousness of the cause! Saddam should have stayed because it was installed by the Americans makes no argument for me, the general argument that why should he have been removed since it was wet who installed him is so fickle, west has made mistakes has looked the other side during Anfal, but anytime correction of past is made even for self motivation, a help to free humans from shackles of inhuman tyrants is always a welcome start, it makes stock of hypocrisy go down and help rise human goodness.
The argument of the liberals like ‘Liberal Democrats’ that Saddam regime was at point of implosion and inspectors would have done the job with benefit of hindsight looks so insubstantial, these graves are scars of guilt on our collective conscience, one way or the other we all are guilty of inability to act; the reasons holocausts and genocides over centuries have been carried ferociously without much interference is that by nature we humans do not want our peace to be destroyed by taking risks to change life of others;
In this flat world of Milton Friedman it is not just the ‘economy or software’ that needs to be taken as a center piece of globalization, it is human dignity and human respect also, the world that is struck with terror regimes, democracies that are poverty stricken have no right to continue their abuse, the sovereignty gets splintered once human life and respect is compromised, every intervention than become legal! Bosnia, Kosovo, Rawanda and Darfur are examples of such mass military and moral interventions, in all these cases it had to be finally the Americans who had to clean up the mess. The OAU ‘big paper mouth piece’ and UN, Kofi Annan of the Africans are just slumbering over Darfur, how they can speak against Arab-Africans ethnic cleansings of black Muslims, after all the strongest nations economically within OAU after SA are all Arabs. I n this globalize world of ours human blood is the lost precious commodity and US actions have shown that they are truly globalized I tend to disagree with Fareed Zachariah in FA today. It is just no more all about economy, it is about humans coming together, our pains being shared and our insular instincts finally caving to react to the pain of others, the pains of others are in our living rooms as a result of connectivity, our super consciousness is emerging and on the stage no one is a bigger player than Americans today, what a defective statement to make by FAREED ZAKARIA -
United States had forgotten to globalize itself?"
"What created the flat world? Friedman stresses technological forces. ... Friedman explains the importance of the development of 'work flow platforms,' software that made it possible for all kinds of computer applications to connect and work together, which is what allowed seamless cooperation by people working anywhere. ...
"China and India loom large in Friedman's story because they are the two big countries benefiting most from the flat world. ... [W]ill it turn out that, having globalized the world, the United States had forgotten to globalize itself?" Continue reading...
By getting involved in denying the bandits sanctuaries of terror, the world is moving ahead in search of nirvana, but these safe havens of tyrannies and banditry are the biggest threat to a globalized world and US is very much helping it together to sew it, the myopias cannot put up or envision the help being rendered. The slant that Fareed highlighted in this book review brought to me the dawn of reality that even the most enlightened cannot eye things in full perspective, a terror infested society and poverty stricken society like that of India and China cannot play a global role it has to be peace and equal opportunity, the two things will help the nations grow in a flat world lore equitably. The loss of Alqaeda sanctuaries in Waziristan and Karakorum has a direct bearing on security and development of Indian and China. That happened under US tutelage, the terror elimination part of globalization efforts are very much American led.
These insurgents who are killing their own people would and could not have operated with a such a free hand if there was no help from general Sunni populace of Fullujah, Ramadi, the Sunni triangle can not stomach Iraqi fortunes to be shared equally by all citizens, they rather would spoil the cake than anyone else to be able to eat it, these insurgents represent those hardliners within the baathists regime that are unable to accept democracy with a Federal Iraq. This is the minority out there who is bent to rule the majority at any cost; they had done it for last five decades why not to continue! The world needs to decide if such genocides, holocausts and disasters can be permitted by the regimes in the name of sovereignty? |
