A multitude of reasons are officially “spoken of “ by military and governmental officials in their effort to justify the invasion of Iraq by the American Government -- oil, hidden nuclear and chemical weapons, inept and faulty intelligence, democracy, freedom, liberty, etcetera. These and other nebulous reasons have nothing to do with America’s unilateral decision to bomb, invade and occupy Iraq. The rational for this and other recent military interventions was nuclear born in postwar 1945 when the total victory of the Allied Military Forces in Europe and Asia provided the basis needed for the birth and establishment of an terrible race of International Political Dominators who plan to introduce a new order of political, economic and social programs on the world: a policy of madness that will rob much of the world of its solid moral basis. They learned the various skills of political deception and fabrication required for the creation of an unnecessary but nevertheless desired war from their political progenitor’s bitter brew of propaganda used in the 1930s in order create a believable list of reasons and justifications for their military carnage in the Second World War: Fifty-five (55) million military and civilian lives lost in six years of war in Europe and Asia. DEMOCRACY - A CIVIL RIGHT OR A POLITICAL VEIL They do all this with the consent and the approval of their very own citizens by the means of our modern process of periodic public democratic elections: the dynamics of which they fully understand and have learned to control. This “popular” vote is often only a prelude to a complete and “ numerically mandated” dictatorship by the executive branch of a modern democratic government. The early noble Greek philosophical idea of a Democracy often ends as soon as the last ballot is counted. THEY FOOLED US ALL Our Western collection of nations have now experienced two hundred years of democratically elected governments. Surely the average citizen should be fully aware by now that what they are told at these elections and what is actually done by those elected is more often than not, worlds apart. Today most democratically elected governments are using far too much of their tax-based revenues for their own private and political life style enrichment, and most damaging of all, using these state funds and future debt obligations to finance their own sectarian military global goals and political ambitions. Left to their own devices all the governments of the Western world will spend their nation’s wealth into another worldwide economic depression: national security and terrorism now demand it! An ever increasing tempo of “State Sponsored Terrorism” is a modern day problem of immense proportions that has a profound social and cultural effect in every corner of our planet. Recent years have become a labyrinth of fire and brimstone suffering for those people unlucky enough to stand in the path of the military fireworks of predatory nations intent on the fulfillment of their programs of domination in order to establish new political, social, and economic arrangements for the nations of the world. It is not important how many innocent people have to die: who will remember those tens of thousands of unidentified martyrs who must suffer an early death as a result of these policies four years from now when free and democratic elections are held once again? The author’s 2002 essay that follows is largely based on his own observations and conclusions as to the events and international actions which have left their mark on the world he has lived in, but these worldwide themes themselves and their histories are universal and vitally important to all humanity 4.93MB Download this Essay in PDF form here, for review.
