Obama's New Year's Resolution

What is the New Year's resolution of U.S. President Barack O'Bomba, winner of the Nobel Peace prize? Bomb. Bomb. Bomb. He is continuing the war in Iraq, escalating the war in Afghanistan with 30,000 more troops and starting new wars including a declared war on Pakistan...and he's doing it with an Academy Award winning smile.

Barack Obama (alias Barry Suerto) is a smarter, darker George Bush. He has charmed and fooled the public with his sharm, confidence and double talk. Since taking office, he has dramatically increased the number and severity of the drone strikes against northern Pakistan and is being pressed to expand the strikes into Baluchistan.

According to Webster G. Tarpley, Obama’s Great Game plan in this region is the dismemberment of both Afghanistan and Pakistan by fomenting a secessionist uprising among the ethnic groups on both sides of the border.

SHOOTING AFGHAN CHILDREN

By Ralph Lopez  

Burning an effigy of Obama and the American flag, Afghans have taken to the streets over the execution of children, ranging in age from 12 to 18, who were pulled from their beds by Special Operations forces in the middle of the night, handcuffed, and shot.  The US confirms that there were no other forces in the region at the time. AFP:

"Hundreds of university students blocked main roads in Jalalabad, capital of eastern Nangahar province, to protest the alleged deaths of 10 civilians, mostly school children, in a Western military operation on Saturday."

The UN through MSNBC said, "The United Nations said Thursday that a weekend raid by foreign troops in a tense eastern Afghan province killed eight local students..."

Did McChrystal authorize this? Haul him back to Washington to answer questions about who gave this order!  

"There is criminality, and then there is CRIMINALITY!.  How more inhuman can one sink than this illustration.  I think we have to remind ourselves that at the Nuremburg trials, German soldiers were convicted because "following orders was no excuse for committing crimes against humanity".  This criminality and crimes against humanity defy comprehension.  Have we brainwashed our soldiers so completely that some operate as robots, totally devoid of conscience and operate as savage animals.  We must call for accountability.  Should we wonder why they hate us?"  - Inge (cdsapi@shaw.ca)

WHO ARE THE TERRORISTS?

Terrorists are anyone who tries to defend their country against U.S. military occupation, the murder of their families and the theft of their land and resources. If the American public could see on their TV screens the killing that is paid for with their labour and tax dollars, they would stop calling soldiers "heroes". They are paid killers in an unjust war. It is not a war against terror. It is a WAR OF TERROR. The Vietnam War ended when the American public stopped supporting the troops and when soldiers finally woke up and began throwing away their medals of (dis)honor.
