MUST READ: WHAT WAR ON TERROR?

Good Morning Visitors,

I received an e-mail from Ted Belman, the author of "The Phoney War on Terror". The story was originally posted on April 19th, 2007.

Mr. Belman provided an improved version of that article, here is an excert or two:


What war on terror?
By Ted Belman
...

Subsequent to this article being written, Saudi Arabia and the US made another deal. They agreed that the US could kill Arabs in Iraq by invading it providing the US would endorse the Roadmap and continue to dismember Israel. And so within one week of attacking Iraq the Roadmap was announced. I covered this thoroughly in my articles
A Unifying Theory and Perfecting the Unifying Theory.

I wonder if the US elites think Iraq has worked out as anticipated. No matter, they made a lot of money from government contracts, higher oil prices and increased demands for military munitions and hardware. Judging from Baker’s report it’s clear they want to engage Syria and Iran with a view to stabilizing the ME. So what if this requires the sacrificing of Israel. What is clear is that Saudi Arabia is backing Al Qaeda and the Sunnis in killing Americans and Shia. Not to be out done, Iran is backing the Shia and the Sunnis in killing each other and Americans.

So why is America staying there? Are they there for the reasons stated or are they really there because Saudi Arabia wants them to stay.

...

But the real debate is whether the US wants to yield its hegemony in the ME to the Iranians. If the Americans depart, there is nothing to stop Iran from dominating Iraq and Lebanon. It will then destabilize Saudi Arabia and perhaps ferment revolt among the Shiites in Iraq who are in the majority in the area containing the largest oil fields. Thus barring any aggressive action against Iran by the US, Iran will control most of the ME oil and will have Russian and Chinese backing and nuclear weapons.

Another problem for America, I think, is Jihad whether advanced by terror or by infiltration. I tend to believe that the Islamification of Europe and ultimately America is a bigger danger to our way of life than terror.

The elites seem to accept Islamification as evidenced by them not acting to prevent it. This amounts to giving the Islamists a licence to infiltrate and transform our society. Bat Ye’or has written about the deals done in the seventies to create Eurabia. Apparently the US has accepted the same deals. I guess we will call it “Amerabia”. Do they also accept Iranian hegemony?
If the America people are willing to fight to prevent such an outcome, what are they to do? Where do they draw the line?

One of the rationals of invading Afghanistan or not leaving Iraq was to prevent safe havens for terrorists to exist or to come into being. If America decides to leave Iraq, NATO will certainly leave Afghanistan. Thus al Qaeda and other terrorists groups will flourish uninhibited and in fact abetted. And they aren’t going away. They will continue to come after the US.
