weel just over a year, and no peace in iraq, whatever CNN may be purpouting, but i posted this on another website a few months ago(henc e the lack of truly topical comments) but i just wondered what other people thought of the situation.
'i hate blair and bush, the english government makes me ashamed to be english. how can bush say north korea cant have nucleur weapons when the only country to ever use them is america, (and they didnt need to, they could have just done a test bomb, then the japanese would have surrendered). how can he talk about freedom of speech when mcarthy banned any left wing views in america, and anyone left wing is hunted down, imprisoned, ostricised by society etc and etc. america cares only about itself, like in africa they claim they are giving vital food but all they are doing is seeling off their extra produce for lower prices thsn the local farmers, which undercut them, force the farmers to go into the town for work, destroy the agriculture industry (the only industry in some african states) making everyoe poorer, except america. like 10 years ago when east asia went bust economically the USA-run world bank said they would only give money and aid to help the economies if the countries sold off half their state-run economy to foreign inverstors (US companies exclusively).... and in Iraq, a wrong war, guess who ius getting billions of pounds for reconstructing iraq???? the people who destroyed it in the first place, cheeney (bushs vice - president). america has killed far more civilians than any country posibly ever (in a 50 year period) i mean look at vietnam forcing balck people to fight, whilst the whites like bush got desk jobs in america, its sick, and then in the 60's in the south when they used to go round lynching blacks, but no-one mentions that any mroe do they????????? or perhaps the second world war, the americans claim they won, what a joke!!! the russinas won the war and would have done by themselves, but the brits planned and were successful in operation overlord, and winning the west. America would never have won the war if it wasnt for Britain winning the battle of britain!!!!!! And then after the war, dumping the jews in palestinian land, simply ecause they think its an easy targer, and because aerica has a large jewish lobby, it defies belief. every moment in the last 200 years involving america has been twisted to try and create a history for a country devout of any heritage, the apache movie with john wayne, give me a break what a load of bollocks, if you want heroism thn watch zulu, and thats acually historically accurate(ish[!]). I, for one, have no qualms with americans its just their 'arristocracy' of media barons, sleazy businessman, oil barons, cattle ranchers etc and etc. Oh and by the way guess how many countries america has ivaded in the last 100 years.....5 you say???.... no, maybe 10, 20 even ..............nope over 130!!!!!!!! Those who allege that they wish to spread democracy and liberate the iraqi people should liberate themselves from their own false pretnnces and realise that they are expressing false desires which ish merely brought on by arrogance of power. By attacking Iraq America is merely justifying the ideals that bin laden was attacking on 9/11 of american imperialism. Thus the only case for war appears to be Saddam's huminatarian record which although appalling, is not too disimilar to another states. The USA has commited atrocities in several post-ww2 wars. In the Korean War they slaughtered hundreds of south koreans at My Lai, at Vietnam they committed many atrocities including burning the skin off children with napalm and one wonders what the americans would have hidden away if weapons inspectors came to their country.now i dont accpet terorsim of any kind, especially not of the kind mentioned but the politicans must realise what they are doing and why they are doing it, and the consequences of these actions.....
