Syria in trouble and Morals, might makes Right ?

One of the leading researchers of the Institute of Oriental Studies of Russian Academy of Science Vladimir Isaev talks about the possibility of US attacking Syria. Is this just talk or could they knowing Iraq will never develop into a centre peice of power in the middleast excellerate plans to at least try to take massive control over all the Oil rich countrys ? The United States, France and Britain pushed for the adoption of a tough resolution against Syria which would threaten sanctions if Damascus fails to cooperate fully with the U.N. probe into Hariri's slaying, reports the AP. Why would they advocate sanctions and cause more outrage against the US, and the West in general throughout the middle east knowing how the regions politics are?



George W. Bush At the end of the last week the UN Security Council received a report from the special commission of the German investigator Detlev Mehlis. According to the report high officials of Syria and Lebanon may have been involved in the murder of the ex-PM of Lebanon Rafik Hariri. Right there in black and white. Both Syria and Lebanon. But that aside, 1. Syrian authorities stressed there were no evidence supporting this claim and called the report politically biased. 2. Lebanon has made progress toward rebuilding its political institutions since 1991 and the end of the devastating 15-year civil war. Under the Ta'if Accord - the blueprint for national reconciliation - the Lebanese have established a more equitable political system, particularly by giving Muslims a greater say in the political, so this is a beacon or blueprint for what the US would like, but still American has no obligations to involve themselves in the policital theatre of every country in the world. Unless of course if wants to run the world .. right ?

Its the middle east, this weeks friend can be next weeks foe. What on earth are they doing rattling sabres for Lebanon, when it could in effect turn the other way in years to come. I hope not, but still, this looks like a way to pin the blame for the failure of Iraq, maybe even kill 2 birds with one stone so to speak.

So the US president George W. Bush said that the UN had to apply sanctions against Damascus on a grand scale. He also used the opportunity to blame Syria for destabilization of the situation in Iraq and the collaboration with the international terrorism. "We expect Syria to do everything in its power to shut down the transshipment of suiciders and killers into Iraq," he said. "We expect Syria to be a good neighbor to Iraq. We expect Syria not to agitate killers in the Palestinian territory." He added that otherwise the USA would be forced to take actions. The last words were interpreted by many as a sign that the US is about to start a military campaign against Syria.


On that note, lets talk about a few things quickly, all of which have to do with morals. Which the US seems to base all its actions on nowadays and seems so quick to pass judgement on without any other facts or hsitory. Like above, leaving out the reigonal history of Lebanon and Syria, reasons for conflict and how the 2 nations have dealt with each other.

1. Reports surfaced on Wednesday that the US's Central Intelligence Agency, or CIA, has been running a secret system of prisons overseas. The Washington Post newspaper reported that the CIA is hiding and interrogating some of its most important Al-Qaeda captives at a Soviet-era compound in Eastern Europe. Reportedly, one of these captives included the main conspirator of the September 11th terrorist attacks, Ramzi Binalshibh. National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley would not confirm or deny the existence of the secret prisons.

National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley would not confirm or deny the existence of the secret prisons. YES THIS IS THE USA THAT WANTS TO PROTECT YOU FROM TERRIBLE EVIL PEOPLE. Look in the mirror people.

"While we have to do what is necessary to defend the country against terrorist attacks and to win the war on terror, the President has been very clear that we are going to do that in a way that is consistent with our values."

Led by US Vice President Dick Cheney, the Bush administration is floating a proposal that would allow the President to exempt covert agents outside the Defense Department from a Senate-approved ban on torturing detainees in US custody or weakening the ban. Just look at the above quote to know that is happening, look at Abu Ghraib ...

or Guantanamo Bay to know that its all a scam, this talk about rights. Right are with this group only give to those who are on one side. I hope this not going to far, but did not Hilter decide who had rights and who did not. Just to the more extreme. The right to live or die. So this said you see US Vice President Dick Cheney, and the Bush administration floating a proposal that would allow the President to exempt covert agents outside the Defense Department from a Senate-approved ban on torturing detainees in US custody or weakening the ban. ** CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP ** I await the day the US finds out one of its people has been torture and see what the line is they play.

2. The rich get richer with BIRD FLU THREAT !!! Good old Dick, you know who. The same guy above trying to pass a senate approved ban on torture seems to have made a bucket full of money off of the bird flu. He has links to company that makes the Tamil flu vaccine. GOOD ON YOU DICK ! After all you need to save for retirement. Cheney earned forty-four million dollars during his tenure at Halliburton. Although he has said that he “severed all my ties with the company,” he continues to collect deferred compensation worth approximately a hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year, and he retains stock options worth more than eighteen million dollars. He has announced that he will donate proceeds from the stock options to charity. How nice Dick !!! Shady if not if illgeal.

Even those within the admin don't like the guy! Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, chief of staff to Mr Powell until last January, said: “What I saw was a cabal between the vice-president of the United States, Richard Cheney, and the secretary of defense, Donald Rumsfeld, on critical issues that made decisions that the bureaucracy did not know were being made.

3. THE CURRENT US ADMIN IS FULL OF HYPOCRITES, THE HISTORY OF US ADMINS IS FULL OF HYPOCRTIES. I started this blog about the US threatening to have sanctions placed on Syria for killing a Lebanonese Prime Minsiter. What have they done in the past? Killed a leader of Chile in 1973 and placed in a dictator named Pinochet. In Iran, the Parliamentary government nationalized a British oil company, the only oil company in Iran. The United States sent military aid and money to military officers who overthrew the government. In 1954, the Shah of Iran (a king) was installed by the U.S. and they got "their" oil back. In 1965, elected president Juan Bosch attempted a comeback when it appeared that rebel military officers would undo the U.S.-backed coup in the Dominican Republic. Juan Bosch had been president for seven months when military officers overthrew him. Instead of Juan Bosch coming back to power in his rightful office, the United States sent the Marines and kept him out. In 1993 chaos in Haiti grows so bad that President Clinton has no choice but to remove the Haitian military dictator, Raoul Cedras, on threat of U.S. invasion. The U.S. do not arrest Haiti’s military leaders for crimes against humanity, but instead ensure their safety and rich retirements. Aristide is returned to power only after being forced to accept an agenda favorable to the country’s ruling class.
In fact they have interferred in more ways then you can possibly imgaine, or stood by and watched as things happened when it suited them. Case and point,the movie THE REVOLUTION WILL NOT BE TELEVISED , just watch the CNN broadcasts. No sir, I think Syria can state they are no better, but no worse then the US when it comes to morals involving other countries and their leaders.
