Archief - Bom gevonden in Londen

killgore zei:

jaja

al quaeda kondigt da constant aan.

Die laatste aanslag (glasgow) lijkt me echt nogal extreem amateuristisch.

Maar mssch een wanhoopsgedoe gezien die in londen mislukt waren?

Zelfs die in Londen waren niet iets typisch voor al quaeda.
Het waren gewoon wijken, meestal neemt al quaeda toch plaatsen die de meeste mensen van die stad nauw aan het hart liggen.

nuja, dat is mijn mening.

Ooit eens een reportage gezien die ging over kofferkes die een of andere bacterie/virus kunnen verspreiden. Zo zijn er ooit enkele gemaakt geweest, en een heel deel werd gestolen

Fortunately, there were no casualties. Unfortunately, elsewhere in the world, British and American troops were complicit in acts of terrorism which did result in Afghan and Iraqi civilian casualties far outweighing in scale and horror what was going on in the UK. Some of these were flagged up by American journalist Chris Floyd, but largely ignored in the mainstream media.

More than 100 Afghan civilians were killed in a three-hour NATO bombing raid on a village in the British-run district Helmand on Saturday, so reported the Observer citing local officials of the US-backed Afgan government, capping off a month of bloodshed in which over 200 Afghan civilians were killed, “a kill ratio far outstripping that of the violent sectarians of the Taliban”, observes Floyd. Hapless British commanders involved in the operations aren’t happy, noting that new NATO commander, US Gen Dan McNeill’s penchant for massive airpower could be “counterproductive.” “Every civilian dead means five new Taliban” said one British Army officer, noting the direct connection between their radicalization and our terrorism. But while UK commanders may have concerns, they have little choice given the decisions made for them by Bush and now Brown.

Yet the mainstream media has shown no interest whatsoever in our terrorism. “Why do these people hate us, why do they want to attack us?” I was asked repeatedly over the weekend by various media pundits wanting to know the secret of how angry Muslims become so radicalized they want to blow themselves and others up. The usual demands for Muslims the world over to buck up and confront the bin Laden-esque “enemy within” were trumpeted. Yet there was little soul-searching about a phenomenon of equal concern – the creeping radicalization of Western societies, where the slaughter of hundreds of Afghan or Iraqi civilians by Anglo-American military forces is justifiable as a form of “collateral damage”, regrettable, but an inevitable corollary of trying to “smoke ‘em out”. Sounds disturbingly similar to al-Qaeda’s own rhetoric of justification for targeting our civilians.

But of course, we’re the free, civilized world. They’re wrong, and we’re right.

Ze hebben al lang meer geld verschoten dan dat er olie in de grond zit zenne...

Om hun $$$ terug te krijgen moeten ze nu al 40 jaar 24/7 olie pompen en rechtstreeks naar de USA verschepen. Dus : never gonna happen.

Hoe noem jij de miljardenuitgaves gerelateerd met de oorlog dan? Winstgevend? Omdat ze de wapenindustrie aanwakkeren, of wat?

Men is daar naartoe vertrokken uit winstbejag. Een verkeerde investering, zo blijkt nu, maar het is te laat om nu zonder boe of ba weg te trekken, tenminste als ze de internationale gemeenschap niet voor de borst willen stoten.

Ze blijven om de internationale gemeenschap niet voor de borst te willen stoten? Waar haal je het? Als het aan de internationale gemeenschap had gelegen was er helemaal geen oorlog geweest. Het is bijna uitsluitend het duo Bush Cheney die nog graten zien in langer te blijven en meer troepen te sturen.

Er zijn helemaal geen plannen om naar huis te komen of te "winnen", enkel om er decennia lang te blijven en onrust te stoken.

In het begin was de internationale gemeenschap natuurlijk tegen (UN, EU,...) maar nu ze er toch zitten heeft die liever een stabiel Irak (waarvoor dus nog langer Amerikaanse troepen moeten zitten) dan een Irak in burgeroorlog -wat zeker gebeurt als de Amerikanen er wegtrekken. Een Irak in handen van religieuse extremisten staat ook niet hoog op het verlanglijstje.

n Monday, September 19, 2005, six British armored vehicles smashed into an Iraqi jail in Basra to free two undercover SAS elite special forces commandos who were engaged in a bungled espionage operation involving the planting of explosives. Michel Chossudovsky breaks the story down here and puts it in to context: British "Undercover Soldiers" Caught driving Booby Trapped Car.

Who’s Blowing Up Iraq? New evidence that bombs are being planted by British Commandos by Mike Whitney

One member of the Iraqi National Assembly. Fatah al-Sheikh, stated, “It seems that the American forces are trying to escalate the situation in order to make the Iraqi people suffer…. There is a huge campaign for the agents of the foreign occupation to enter and plant hatred between the sons of the Iraqi people, and spread rumors in order to scare the one from the other. The occupiers are trying to start religious incitement and if it does not happen, then they will try to start an internal Shiite incitement.”

Last week the Imam of Baghdad’s al-Kazimeya mosque, Jawad al-Kalesi said, that “al-Zarqawi is dead but Washington continues to use him as a bogeyman to justify a prolonged military occupation….He’s simply an invention by the occupiers to divide the people.” Al-Kalesi added that al-Zarqawi was killed in the beginning of the war in the Kurdish north and that “His family in Jordan even held a ceremony after his death.” (AFP)

In the timely and thorough analysis Al-Qaeda and the Iraqi Resistance Movement, Chossudovsky asks: "Has the US [and Britain] created as part of a covert intelligence operation, a bogus ‘resistance movement’ made up of its own Al Qaeda sponsored ‘terrorists’? Their suicide attacks target Iraqi civilians rather than the US military. The suicide bombings tend to encourage sectarian divisions not only within Iraq, but throughout the entire Middle East. They serve Washington's interests. They contribute to undermining the development of a broader resistance movement uniting Shia, Sunni, Kurds and Christians against the illegal occupation of the Iraqi homeland. They also tend to create, at the international level, divisions within the antiwar and peace movements."

The answer to the question, emphatically underscored by the British prison break, is yes.

A manufactured and guided "terrorism", including suicide bombings set up by Western forces, and blamed on "terrorists" (Zarqawi, etc.), and "real" blowback violence (anti-occupation resistance)---fomented by the West, for geostrategic purposes.

The real terror threat originates from Washington, and its brethren in London and Tel Aviv.

Iraqi Order 81
...and they said that we were there to bring freedom and liberty...it is time to tell the troops the truth.
How did this happen? While few of us were paying attention, the Coalition Provisional Authority, representing the government of the United States, imposed a set of 100 orders on Iraq. A careful examination of these orders could lead to the conclusion that the war is being waged to enrich corporations at the expense of the ordinary citizens. Many of these orders take freedom and liberty away from the people of Iraq. The orders also have a profound effect on us.

Iraqi Order 81 is of special interest because it goes a long way in affecting very living being on the planet. This order prohibits Iraqi farmers from using the methods of agriculture that they have used for centuries. The common worldwide practice of saving heirloom seeds from one year to the next is now illegal in Iraq. Order 81 wages war on Iraqi farmers. They have lost the freedom and liberty to choose their own methods of agriculture.

Je weet nu toch ook dat die plannen onzin zijn. De republikeinen verliezen bij de volgende verkiezing waarschijnlijk zeker en dan zullen de troepen teruggehaald worden. Eruit halen wat erin zit ok, maar niet er decennialang blijven heersen en onrust stoken. Een paar bases zoals overal ter wereld mss wel.
