International Politics: November 2004 Archives

PROUT Editor's note: The government of Iraq reminds us more and more of the goverenment of a Central American country such as Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemala, where the local dictator-government slaughtered thousands of protesting starving villagers and peasants trying to establish justice in their country. And behind those governments were the American CIA, aiding and abetting, providing weapons and even soldiers to keep the peasants in their place. Assassinations were rampant. The former ambassador to Honduras, Mr. John Negroponte, is now US ambassador to Iraq. He knows all the techniques, all the tortures, he is adept in assassination methods, in ways and means to suppress and oppress the popular resistance, in how to crush the common people! This past week two prominent Sunni clerics were assassinated in drive-by shootings as they left the mosque. It is a ruthless campaign by Allawi and the US to crush any rebellion, any dissent against US occupation and plunder of Iraq. The second tragic event to occur this week was the meeting in Cairo of all the Arab nations surrounding Iraq. These nations agreed to support the regime of CIA-propped and US military backed Allawi, despite knowing that he was installed in this position by the CIA, despite knowing that the "insurgents" are the Iraqi people desperately fighting for their freedom and their dignity, and despite knowing that the so-called democratic elections in January in Iraq will be a farce and only a propaganda show for Bush to demonstrate to the American populace his wild success in Iraq! Shame on those countries for supporting the cruel dictator called Allawi, and for supporting the continuing occupation of Iraq by imperialist US forces! Shame on the Arab countries for turning their backs on the sufferings of the civilians struggling to remove the foreign invaders from their country! For this betrayal of its own brothers and sisters, the Arab world will pay heavily!

The prime minister is following in the footsteps of the last president. The rule of Ayad Allawi, the U.S. appointed interim prime minister of Iraq, is now more in the style of the dictatorship of Saddam Hussein than a leader of a supposedly democratic state.

NATIONAL NEWS SERVICE (KOLKATA): The Anglo-Saxons and the Portuguese/Spanish are perhaps the most arrogant and in many ways a despicable race have perfected the art of false propaganda which to a certain extent infected the other European countries. It is no surprise that the master of false propaganda in recent times Goebbels was an European and German to be more precise. Let us look at the some of these lies that they have spread and we the Asians/Africans the gullible races have swallowed lock stock and barrel and keep propagating these lies to our future generations in the form of History lessons.

The Nazis Had Their Law Professors, Too

By FRANCIS BOYLE

The Faculties at such "elite" law schools like Harvard, Yale, Chicago and Berkeley have made it perfectly clear to the legal community that they are fully prepared to hire war criminals, warmongers and torturers to their Faculties, and that they will then train their students to become war criminals, warmongers, and torturers.. This is an appalling situation. These so-called elite Law School Faculties are not fit to educate students. These so-called elite Law School Faculties believe that they are above the Law. The sheer arrogance of these so-called elite Law School Faculties knows no bounds.

11/01/04 (Bloomberg) -- Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden said he is trying to bankrupt the U.S. through its war on terror, a strategy he says felled the Soviet Union two decades ago in Afghanistan, according to a translation by al-Jazeera television of his full, videotaped statement.
