 |
|
Today 117 x avg 4 = 468 Afghans and Iraqis killed in their own
countries, by Western invaders and occupiers that came from 9000 miles
away.
How wrong can you be?
How immoral can you be?
How blind can you be?
Hitler's fabricated excuses for his attacks on other countries
were also believed by 90% of the German population.
Bush and Cheney's lies were also believed by a majority.
If you control the mass media and the news from the wars,
you can easily fool the majority.
One simple example is to call legal resistance fighters
'insurgents'.
If we were attacked and occupied by a foreign nation and
we fought back in our own country, would we be called
'insurgents'? It is absolute hogwash. It is using
language to hide the essence of an illegal attack and
occupation, i.e. colonial wars.
All Iraqis and Afghans have a right to fight the invaders and
throw them out.
Public opinion is now turning around, not because they
understand these are immoral and illegal colonial wars,
but because it is finally becoming clear to all these dumbskulls
who voted for the warmonger Bush that he is not winning.
The two illegal, immoral and horrible colonial wars on two muslim
countries are continuing unabated. Western colonial wars nearly
always consist of bombing and killing from the air. Crimes made
possible with advanced technology and weaponry.
We have seen it many times before.
To 'pacify' or 'save' it, we have to destroy it.
That will 'win the hearts and minds' for sure,
that will 'liberate' them for sure,
that will help them create a 'democracy',
that will help them build their infrastructure,
that will help them rebuild buildings and roads.
Of course, it is the opposite of liberation:
It is much more destruction and killing.
And completely the opposite of how to fight guerilla-type wars.
These colonial wars have been lost and justifiably so.
When you are trapped in the quagmire of your own
making (you cannot stay as you will bleed and bleed, and
you cannot leave as you would lose access to 212 billion
barrels of oil) then only more bombing and killing and
devastation is left. That makes Bush and Cheney global
war criminals and mass murderers.
March 8 airpower: F-15Es provide close-air support in Afghanistan
3/8/2007 - SOUTHWEST ASIA (AFNEWS) -- U.S. Central Command Air Forces
officials have released the airpower summary for March 8.
http://www.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123043916
In Afghanistan March 7, a B-1B Lancer dropped guided bomb unit-38s and
GBU-31 Joint Direct Attack Munitions on enemy personnel and a building
near Garmsir, in support of Operation Achilles. The on-scene joint
terminal attack controller and ground forces observed direct hits.
Air Force F-15E Strike Eagles provided close-air support for coalition
forces near Garmsir. The F-15Es fired cannon rounds on enemy forces
in the open, dropped GBU-12s and GBU-38s on buildings known to contain
enemy forces and on buildings where insurgents hid after initial air
strikes.
A Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet dropped a GBU-12 on an enemy mortar
position and another on a cave entrance where an enemy mortar spotter
was located near Now Zad. A JTAC confirmed good hits on both targets.
Other Navy F/A-18s provided reconnaissance of a suspected mortar
position near Sangin.
Near Asadabad, Navy F/A-18s conducted shows of force over a suspected
Taliban compound and an area suspected of small-arms fire. A JTAC
confirmed good effects for the show of force.
Navy F/A-18 pilots also observed and reported a group of compounds
where enemy personnel were suspected of firing rockets at coalition
forces near Garmir.
Other Navy F/A-18s provided a show of force over a compound for
coalition forces receiving mortar fire near Sangin. A JTAC reported
the show of force was successful as enemy fire had ceased. The F/A-18s
also provided overwatch for a coalition convoy and reconnaissance for
a roadway in the same area.
Royal Air Force GR-7 Harriers provided a show of force for a coalition
convoy attacked by multiple rocket propelled grenades at the gate of a
forward operating base near Garmsir. The GR-7 pilots reported
individuals observing the patrol from inside a compound.
Other GR-7s released enhanced Paveway II munitions, 540-pound bombs
and a rocket on enemy individuals in the open and in buildings near
Garmsir. The weapons directly hit the targets, according to a JTAC.
In total, 57 close-air-support missions were flown in support of
Afghan and International Security Assistance Force, or ISAF, troops,
reconstruction activities and route patrols.
Eight U.S. and RAF intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, or
ISR, aircraft flew missions in support of operations in Afghanistan.
Navy fighter aircraft performed in non-traditional ISR roles with
their electro-optical and infrared sensors.
In Iraq, Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcons provided reconnaissance of
suspicious individuals and provided a show of force over a large group
of people near Balad. A JTAC reported the show of force was
successful.
Other Air Force F-16s provided reconnaissance of a house in which anti-
Iraqi insurgents involved in a previous engagement were hiding. The
F-16 pilots watched the house until the arrival of coalition forces.
A-10 Thunderbolt IIs performed armed reconnaissance in support of
counter-improvised explosive device mission near Iskandariyah.
In total, coalition aircraft flew 46 close-air-support missions for
Operation Iraqi Freedom. These missions included support to coalition
troops, infrastructure protection, reconstruction activities and
operations to deter and disrupt terrorist activities.
Additionally, 14 Air Force and Navy ISR aircraft flew missions in
support of operations in Iraq.
Air Force C-130 Hercules aircraft and C-17 Globemaster IIIs provided
intra-theater heavy airlift support, helping sustain operations
throughout Afghanistan, Iraq and the Horn of Africa. Approximately 165
airlift sorties were flown; nearly 500 tons of cargo were delivered,
and approximately 2,770 passengers were transported.
Coalition C-130 crews from Canada, Japan and South Korea flew in
support of OIF or OEF.
On March 6, U.S., RAF and French tankers flew 39 sorties and off-
loaded more than 2.6 million pounds of fuel which is the equivalent of
65 full Air Force fuel trucks. |

The above is Quite a detailed account of what these murderers are
getting up to.
| Quote: |
From their own web site. even.
And that is what they want us to know about. |
The use of the words ´'insurgents'.
Or ´Militants´
Are being used to Dehumanize.
These People.
Just as Nazi Germany used imagery of Rats scuttling about a pile of
wood.
to Dehumanize the Jews.
The current Nazi´s are doing the same with the use of Language.
The manipulation of language to their benefit.
As soon as the public hear, 27 ´Insurgents´ were killed blah, blah.
They have turned off, right at the start.
Radical Cleric ...Abdull Ramjam Date-tree today blah, blah
Not Muslim Cleric but Radical Cleric.
All to Dehumanize.
Dictionaries define ´Insurgent´ as a person who rises in forcible
opposition, or resistance, to civil or political authority within
their own country.
These people in Iraq and Afghanistan are more concerned about getting
an Armed Foreign Power OUT of their Country.
Hardly infitting with the above discription.
Then of course, as the Americans et al have perverted the very meaning
of that word, ´Insurgent´ for so long, it will in time become::
Dictionaries define ´Insurgent´ as a person who rises in forcible
opposition, or resistance, to an external power, civil or political
authority within their own country.
Manipulating language to manipulate the World.
I just replace the word Intergent....with Detergent.
And realise that more people have just been killed by these American,
British and now NATO Monsters all funded by the TAX payer.
And all in our name.
These Countries are best left well alone.
Even the American Military wish they had not gone in to Iraq.
Let alone their Public.
Afghanistan is another matter.
The Taliban Kill...... just goes on.
Like a bloody duck hunt, in duck season.
Off they go, just a few days ago.
Slaughtering them by the tonnage.
As they have for quite a while.
Historically, in that Country for an age.
Doesn´t make it right though.
Changing peoples perception of right and wrong.
Waring them down.
If only by the ´Putting up´ with factor of it all.
Hardly being able to do anything about it.
Making them as immorall as the perpetrators.
Just Why are other Govenments of the World doing bugger all about it.
Dehumanizing us all. |
