BARBARIANS AT THE GATE

by Malik Isasis























On Tuesday August 28, 2007 Raw Story broke the story of an inevitable attack against Iran by the United States, and its allies Great Britain and Israel. The Raw Story article discussed the new paper by scholars Dr. Dan Plesch and Martin Butcher titled, “Considering a War with Iran: A Discussion Paper on WMD in the Middle East” (download report).

I’ve spent two days pouring over the disturbing report of how the United States plans to take out Iran nuclear facilities. The report substantiated my theory of Iraq as a staging ground for a much larger colonization effort of Arab and Muslim states in the Middle East.

The necons dusted off their corporate colonization plans immediately after September 11, 2001 and decided that the time is now to exert American power and influence by completely destabilizing the whole of the Middle East, the so-called War on Terror is the distraction, the purpose of a colonization is so that the corporate raiders could come in and rape and pillage the natural resources. The spoils of war and destruction will be divided amongst three countries: the United States, Great Britain and Israel.

The Bush administration and the Likudniks in the Israeli parliament would like us to buy into the nobility of taming the savages in the Middle East by domesticating them, but there is no nobility in subduing millions of people with 80, 000 lbs bombs.

The magnificent failure of the United States’ occupation of Iraq, and Bush insistence on staying the course proves his goal is to stay put until he has destabilized all of the Middle East, creating an opportunity for Israel to dominate the region and the United States to reap the benefits of the natural resources of these countries.

The Colonization of Arabs and Muslims

Excerpts from Plesch’s and Butcher’s paper clearly illustrates Bush’s noble intentions:

General Wesley Clark claims that he became aware of the Bush Administration’s instructions concerning the overthrow of the Iranian regime in September 2001. He states that he was told this in the Pentagon by a serving General holding the order in his hand.

“He picked up a piece of paper. And he said, “I just got this down from upstairs” meaning the Secretary of Defense’s office -- “today.” And he said, “This that describes how we’re going to take out seven countries in five years, Iraq, and then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and, finishing off, Iran.”

In various forms, regime change or change of orientation favouring the US occurred in Iraq, Lebanon, Libya and Somalia in the ensuing six years. (pp. 6)

The Israeli-Lebanon War last summer brought to light, Lebanon as a blueprint for an attack on Iran just as Seymour Hersh reported in August 2006. Israel wasn't successful in the military campaign, however, the US will still use the blueprint. The Bush administration and the Likudniks in Israel were successful in destabilizing the Lebanese government, however. In Bush fashion and in his usual disconnectedness, his administration had the audacity to condemn Hezbollah and its allies in the UN for attempts to destabilize the Lebanese government. In the spring of this year, Bush escalated tensions throughout the Middle East by arming militias throughout Lebanon, Gaza and Iraq causing disruption, death and destruction which has led to destabilization of governments and not to mention, the US inability to track the arms in which it sold or gave to militias. As I suspected before, the targeted countries are being set up to fail, but so are the military, but none of this matter in Bush's World, his eyes are on the prize and not on common sense.

WASHINGTON, Nov 13 (Reuters) - President George W. Bush, searching for a new approach in Iraq, expressed little enthusiasm on Monday for seeking Syrian and Iranian help to calm Iraq as he cautioned Democrats against quick U.S. troop reductions.

The lack of diplomacy surely makes sense now doesn't it? Speaking of diplomacy or the lack thereof, has the State Department disappeared Condeleezza Rice? Where are the diplomatic efforts on the part of the State Department? Isn't it peculiar that she is nowhere in sight in the looming conflict with Iran?

Geopolitics

The military implementation of the George W Bush administration's unilateralist foreign policy is creating monumental changes in the world's geostrategic alliances. The most significant of these changes is the formation of a new triangle comprised of China, Iran and Russia.

The United States’ belligerence toward countries in the path of its fascist turn has primed the remnants of the Warsaw Pact, the counterbalance to the US and NATO alliance.

Do you think China and Russia will sit out during US’ attack, or would they militarily support Iran by proxy?

The United States Recipe for Death and Destruction

• Any attack is likely to be on a massive multi-front scale but avoiding a ground invasion. Attacks focused on WMD facilities would leave Iran too many retaliatory options, leave President Bush open to the charge of using too little force and leave the regime intact.

• US bombers and long range missiles are ready today to destroy 10,000 targets in Iran in a few hours.

• US ground, air and marine forces already in the Gulf, Iraq, and Afghanistan can devastate Iranian forces, the regime and the state at short notice.

• Some form of low level US and possibly UK military action as well as armed popular resistance appear underway inside the Iranian provinces or ethnic areas of the Azeri, Balujistan, Kurdistan and Khuzestan. Iran was unable to prevent sabotage of its offshore-to-shore crude oil pipelines in 2005.

• Nuclear weapons are ready, but most unlikely, to be used by the US, the UK and Israel. The human, political and environmental effects would be devastating, while their military value is limited. • Israel is determined to prevent Iran acquiring nuclear weapons yet has the conventional military capability only to wound Iran’s WMD programmes.

• The attitude of the UK is uncertain, with the Brown government and public opinion opposed psychologically to more war, yet, were Brown to support an attack he would probably carry a vote in Parliament. The UK is adamant that Iran must not acquire the bomb.

• Short and long term human, political and economic consequences of any war require innovative approaches to prevent the crisis becoming war (pp. 5).

Barbarians at the Gate

Bush’s racist agenda toward the Middle East is to the show the world the United States‘ global reach, most importantly, to steal the resources of people across the Middle East, and kill them in the process. If it wasn’t clear now, it should be clear that Bush is a psychopathic killer who has an uncanny talent of objectifying the people he kills. Bush will not stop until the objective is complete. Therefore the Democratic Party waiting until the September 15 report on progress in Iraq is helping Bush bide his time. Nothing has changed about the occupation; Bush in a show of confidence is getting ready to ask for an additional $50 billion dollar supplemental.

The Democratic Party has failed this country, and will continue to do so. Once Bush starts dropping 80,000 lbs “smart” bombs that will kill tens of thousands of people the Democrats will snap their heels together and salute, making sure that the dollar completely collapse, and destroying the US economy and taking the world with it.

Maybe that makes us suicide bombers too.
