Bush, Iraq and an arrogant apology
The spate of
Gestapo-like and horrendously sadistic acts of abuse being meted out by
Coalition Forces, especially British and American forces, against Iraqi
prisoners at the Abu Ghraib prison as revealed by parallax snaps and
vivid pictures, once again brings to the fore the prime reason why
America chose to go to Iraq.
It is to destroy the Iraqi civilization, dehumanize the people,
pilfer their art works and bastardize their economy through the stealing
of their oil.
The world rose in profound unison in
condemning these acts of wickedness deliberately covered by the underhand
furtive maneuvres of the American Defence Secretary, Donald
Rumsfeld. The man, George
Bush, who won the American presidential elections under mysterious
circumstances is notorious for his Machiavellian disingenuousness. He went into the ritual and
dialectics of political escapism, hardly ever truly apologizing or doing
so with satanic arrogance, and his coteries in the Defence Secretary and
the Vice President followed suit.
The world can now see that our
contemporary Hitler, George Bush, will stop at nothing in pursuing his
murderously dangerous and reckless agenda of re-colonising Iraq and
setting the stage for the commencement of the Third World War,
destruction of the oil industry and the torpedoing of the world economy. The world and the American people
must show this Babylonish king and contemporary king Nebucchadnesar the
way out in the next elections.
The awfully hideous beheading of Nicolas
Berg, an American businessman is a direct reprisal for the Coalition’s
abuse of Iraqi prisoners.
This is grossly barbaric and condemnable, but it is a direct
consequence of Bush’s heedless and bull headed obduracy of pursuing his
reckless agenda of crime against humanity. The setting of the transition government in Iraq is a
step in the right direction, but where are the weapons of mass
destruction (WMD) which George Bush and Tony Blair used to justify their
attack on Iraq. They must be
prosecuted by the world court at the Hague, fro crimes against humanity.
However, his partner in crime the British
Prime Minister, Mr. Tony Blair has transparently apologized. An apology, profusely and
properly offered shows a penitent, and contrite heart. It extenuates bitterness because
it acknowledges and expresses regret for wrong done and it is highly remorseful. It quickly draws sympathy and
forgiveness by the humble submission of saying “I am sorry”. But the patrician and
blue-blooded conduct of Mr. George Bush remains highly condemnable and
betrays arrogance. The abuse
of the Iraqi prisoners of war is a wanton breach of the Geneva Convention
and Luxemburg Declaration.
George Bush is propelled by America’s
wealth and military might to maintain such demonic arrogance. His evil works are still going on
in Guantanomo Bay. But like
such men in history, he will soon meet his waterloo. It was Winston Churchill that
said in 1977 that, “the world must be made safe for democracy”. Men like George Bush must go to
save our dying world and democracy.
America beware.
