The US present terror tactics
to fight terrorism is not the result of 9/11. It began many long years ago. Its
blueprint was laid actually in 1948
From
Korea, Vietnam and Afghanistan, to the CIA sponsored military coups in Latin
America and Southeast Asia, the objective has been to ensure US military hedgemony
and global economic domination, was initially formulated under the “Truman
Doctrine” ( by the then State Secretary George Keenan in 1948). Despite
significant policy differences, successive Democratic and Republican
administrations, from Harry S. Truman to George W. Bush to Barrack Obama, have
carried out, and still carrying out this global military agenda.
The
entire “Post War Period” is marked by extensive war crimes resulting to the
death of more than 10 million people. This figure does not include those who
perished as a result of poverty, starvation and disease.
War
crimes are the result of the US state and foreign policy apparatus. We are
dealing specifically with individual war criminals, but with a process
involving decision makers acting at different level, with a mandate to carry
out war crimes, following established guidelines and procedures.
What
distinguishes the present US War crimes and violations of international
conventions in relation to historical
record of US sponsored crimes and atrocities, is the concentration camps,
targeted assassinations, torture chambers and even spying on the
privacy of indivuals are now considered as legitimate forms of intervention,
which sustain the “global war on terrorism” and support the spread of Western
Democracy.
STATE
TERRORISM HAS BECOME A “LEGITIMATE” AMERICAN WEAPON IN COMBATTING GLOBAL
TERRORISM!
