The US admin and their cohorts did their very, very best via media outlets to put the fear of God into us about Saddam Hussein after 9/11 making him out to be the no.1 enemy even though he was secular and wasn't anything to do with what happened. I wonder why?
No, it was the beard. If only it had been nowdays they were looking for him, they might've hanged Roy Keane by mistake which would've been a much more satisfying result.

You are right. The decision after 9/11 to go into Iraq had no justification whatsoever under the "war on terror" and was a convenient way to lump in (and get public support for) Republican foreign policy aspirations in the region alongside (understandable) revulsion at 9/11 and a desire to respond... But, we are where we are.. and yes must remain vigilant against any further such "cons"(and yes of course they still abound). But, as to whether that means there is no reason, here and now, to be very concerned about jihadi salafism and the consequences of its rise in various parts of the globe including Iraq and Syria , is another matter... The genie is well and truly out of the bottle...whoever might have contributed to that to date... Personally, I find the present cynical actions of the Turkish government beyond sick....in terms of projecing ISIS and the Kurds as twin evils and standing by (on their own border) while just over the border it looks like the clocks are going to be changed to go back a few hundred years, and once again the Kurds get it in the neck.

I feel , myself, slightly repulsed that 'the Allies' intervened in Iraq when oil was at stake. We are 'watching' massacres already happened by IS as passive bystanders. Gang rapes, public beheadings and crucifixions have already happened, and all seem about to happen again. It makes me slightly sick to know that people are suffering at the hands if IS, when the Western powers seem well-equipped to deal with the threat. And deal with it absolutely. am I wrong ? Too simplistic, perhaps, but who else will 'sort it' ?
I disengage, I turn the page. |
