SPECIAL: How dead is this country?
What did Americans gain from an unaffordable war in Iraq that lasted far
longer than World War II and that put into power Shi’ites allied with Iran? The answer is obvious: nothing whatsoever. What did the armaments industry gain? Billions of dollars in profits. What about President Obama? "A corporate marketing creation," sums up the distinguished British journalist John Pilger. Obama is the presidential candidate who promised to end the war in Iraq. He hasn’t. But he has escalated the war in Afghanistan, started a new war in Pakistan, intends to repeat the Yugoslav scenario in the Caucasus, and appears determined to start a war in South America. In response to the acceptance by US puppet president of Colombia, Alvaro Uribe, of seven US military bases in Columbia, Venezuela warned South American countries that the "winds of war are beginning to blow." Here we have the US government, totally dependent on the generosity of foreigners to finance its red ink, which extends in large quantities as far as the eye can see, completely under the thumb of the military/security complex, which will destroy us all in order to meet Wall Street share price expectations. Why does any American care who rules Afghanistan? The country has nothing to do with us. http://original.antiwar.com/roberts/...-by-oligarchs/ |
