It is quite frightening
how the “Free Democratic Peace Loving West” can drum up all
manner of reasons to attack, invade and destroy so many countries
across the globe. Our most recent list includes, Iraq, Afghanistan
and Libya to mention a few. Now our war hungry political class is
screwing up the tension for having a go at Syria and Iran. There are
those who claim that the war against Iran has already started with
covert attacks on industrial installations and the assassination of a
general. What drives our war crazy “leaders”? Do you honestly
believe it is all for the benefit of the Iraqis, Afghans and Libyans?
Or is it big money corporatism seeking control over all the planet's
valuable resources? The following is a short extract from a recent
article in The Guardian, it is well worth reading the whole article.
"---The whole campaign has an Alice in Wonderland quality about it. Iran, which says it doesn't want nuclear weapons, is surrounded by nuclear-weapon states: the US – which also has forces in neighbouring Afghanistan and Iraq, as well as military bases across the region – Israel, Russia, Pakistan and India.Iran is of course an authoritarian state, though not as repressive as western allies such as Saudi Arabia. But it has invaded no one in 200 years. It was itself invaded by Iraq with western support in the 1980s, while the US and Israel have attacked 10 countries or territories between them in the past decade. Britain exploited, occupied and overthrew governments in Iran for over a century. So who threatens who exactly?---"
