Response to Fresca

by Wavemaster Sunday, Apr. 13, 2003 at 5:52 AM

I started this as a response to Fresca who posed the question, "give me one example of Bush and his Gang killing on a global scale". As you can see I kinda got carried away so i decided to publish this.

Examples of Bush and his Gang killing on a global scale, well lets start with Afganastan. Over 3000 cilivilians lost their lives in the second ground zero, just from the bombs and guns alone. I really don't feel like posting more grusome pictures of the dead civillians killed in Iraq, like the 50 people who where vaporized when the bomb fell on the market right around 5pm, when everybody was out shopping. Haven't you bothered to look at the Iraq body count everytime you come on this site. That number doen't even count the soldiers killed. But I guess as long as we put lables on people like Taliban and terrorist then their really not people at all. Just because they are labled soliders doesn't mean they are not somebodys husban or father. We have all these yellow ribbons for our troops, but what about their troops, don't they count too? What makes it ok to kill them, how come they don't count in our media. Sorry but i don't need fox news to tell me who my enemies are.
Yea Sadam is like the midevil monarchies of France who built Pallaces and lived in oppulance. But before the first Gulf war, Iraq had a decent standard of living. His people actually had health care, free! and free education. He also invested money in infasturcture. The US gave him blessings when he was gassing the kurds durring the Iran war, if not outriright assistance. It was the bombing durring the first Gulf war and the 10 years of economic sanctions that killed thousands of Iraqie children, and devestated the people.
I'ts not just the bombs that kill durring war. Most of the devastation comes after the fighing has stopped. Right now in Iraq it's complete kaos. More people will die from lack of clean water which breeds disease. When you bomb the electricity then the sewer treatment and the water treatment goes along with it. Not to mention the hospitals which had to close after being ransacked. And Rumsfield has the gaul to say, "Stuff happens". What a bastard!
This is why we in the peace movement protested this war. We think about ALL the consequences of war and not just the story that the corporate media wants us to belive. Its no shock that we won on the battlefield. Its only supprising it took as much time as it did given the criminal air assault waged on the country.
So tell me Neocons, whats so great about this invasion that you call liberation? Are we going to spend our american tax dollars to rebuild this mess? Give me one example besides WW2 where our sole military purpose was to liberate a people. I can give you plenty of examples of US imperialism.
Mostly what we do is back dictators like Sadam who opprese their people so we can control their resources. Let me give you an example of one country right now. In Venezuela the US tried to overthrow Chavez with a secret coup. But guess what, the people weren't buying it. They flew his ass back in a helicopter because the people were gonna have a revolution. Belive me they were shaking in their boots. You see, a few wealthy white elite conservatives control the oil profitis while the rest of the people in the country starve and live in utter misery. Chavez acctually had the gaul to want to give some of that money back to the people. And not much eithier! But see our giant oil companies will not stand for even a few crumbs being returned to the people.
Here are some more examples of Thugs and Killers we have backed that would make Sadam look like an ametur; General Agusto Pinoche, he was backed by the US to overthrow the democratically elected leader of Chile, Salvador Ayende.
Anthor Killer we backed was Suarto of Indonesia. All he did was launch and invasion into East Timore and commit a gennocidal slaughter almost completley wipping out the entire population using US weapons. And I forgot to mention that Kissinger and Nixon met with Suarto the night before the invasion to give it their blessing.
This is the true track record of American foriegn policy, It started with the genocide mass murder of the Native Americans, continued with the invasion of the Phillipines and is still going on right now all over the world. You see thats why the conservative elites were standing alone in support of this war while the rest of the world protested in oppostion . Like in Venezuela the people of the world have the boot of corporate tyrany on their neck every day, and they know that the time has come for all peoples of the world to unite in love and peace, without the racist labels of hate.
Neocon Your Days are numbered! The people of the world are gonna rise up and have a real liberation, and live in a world not based on profit or on the dow jones where corporate elites are allowed to buy legislation so they can ripp off investors and employees, but based on truth and peace and love! Violence creates more violence and 9/11 was not an unprevocted attack
I challenge any neocon or US nationalist to tell me how the US is fighting for freedom. Give me one example and I'll expose it for the lie that it is
Viva la revolution!
