The revamped war on terror exposed

  1. So basically, the US is just escalating a war against these tribal people to guarantee more funny money for the MIC.

    Let's not forget the oil pipeline Bu$hco was supposed to get built from Azerbaijan across Afghanistan that never happened because of neocon-munist stupidity.

  2. The War on Terrorism is a Lie

    The war on terrorism is a lie because terrorism is not an enemy, it is a strategy.
    Terrorism is a strategy employed by weaker states and non-state actors when fighting an asymmetric war against a more powerful opponent.
    No state or non-state actor enters a conventional war against an enemy it has no chance of defeating conventionally.
    Since the U.S. has declared that it will maintain military superiority without challenge, it has done everything in its power to do just that. The US defense budget for 2008 is some $700 billion. There is no single state or non-state actor on this planet that can defeat the United States in a conventional war.
    Therefore, any single state or non-state actor that finds itself at war with the United States will be forced to fight an asymmetric war. That is, they will be forced to employ terrorism.
    Therefore the war on terrorism is a war against anyone at war with the United States. Therefore the war on terrorism is a lie. It is not a war on terrorism at all, but a war to promote and defend US imperialism.

  3. Yep, It looks like there might be a war on three fronts. Afghanistan, Iraq, and it might be focused on Pakistan which wasn't really an allay anyway, more like a victim of circumstance.

    Bush's dirty little war in Iraq was over in a few days, like the Incredible Hulk against Peewee Herman, but the Neoconservative plan for dominance in the Middle East called for a long war that in the long run would include Iran...G:

  4. "The War on Terrorism is a Lie"

    Thanks for the comment John. I agree, especially considering that we're talking about an ism, which denotes an ideology or belief. I like to go to my old 1895 Funk & Wagnals dictionary to get an older definition of the word.
