Will life on Earth be Washington's next victim?
2015-03-31
[Iran Press TV] By DR PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS
Dear Friends: We have had a satisfactory response to our request for your support. As long as you support this site, I will as well. Without your support the website would not exist.

Foundations and corporations do not support truth-tellers. American foundations underwrite war and US imperialism. Foundations support subversion of countries that are not Washington's puppet states. Your website has no foundation support, no corporate support; it only has your support.

I have been around for a long time and have experienced more than most. The current situation in my experience is the most dangerous time of all for humanity.

Nuclear weapons are no longer restrained by the Cold War MAD doctrine. Washington has released them into pre-emptive first strike form.

The targets of these pre-emptive strikes -- Russia and China -- know it, because Washington proudly proclaims its immorality in public documents describing its war doctrine.

The result is to maximize the chance of nuclear war. If you were Russia and China, and you knew that Washington had a war doctrine that permits a surprise nuclear attack, would you sit there waiting while Washington cranks up its anti-Russian and anti-Chinese propaganda machine, demonizing both countries as a threat to "freedom and democracy"?

The fools in Washington are playing with nuclear fire. Noam Chomsky
...intellectual and political theorist of a socialist persuasion. He is noted for being so far out in left field he can't see the shortstop on every issue he pushes...
points out that in a less dangerous time than currently exists, we came very close to nuclear war.

Harold Pinter, one of the last Western intellects, understood the danger in Western arrogance. He denounced the West's crimes and called for the crimes to be subject to established law before it is too late for humanity.

"We have brought torture, cluster bombs, depleted uranium, innumerable acts of random murder, misery, degradation and death to the Iraqi people and call it 'bringing freedom and democracy to the Middle East'. How many people do you have to kill before you qualify to be described as a mass murderer and a war criminal? One hundred thousand? More than enough, I would have thought. Therefore it is just that Bush and Blair be arraigned before the International Criminal Court
... where Milosevich died of old age before being convicted ...
of Justice." Harold Pinter, 2005 Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech.
"An Iraqi Holocaust" by Gideon Polya and "Genocide In Iraq" provide abundant evidence for convicting Bush and Blair.

Dr. Gideon Polya is a professor of science in one of Australia's leading universities. He has a moral conscience, something increasingly rare in the Western world.

His articles are based largely on the just published by Clarity Press two volume heavily documented Genocide in Iraq by Abdul-Haq Al-Ani and Tarik Al-Ani. Abdul-Haq Al-Ani is a British-educated lawyer with a Ph.D. in International Law and a Ph.D. in electronics engineering. Tarik Al-Ani, is an architect, translator, and researcher.

Currently I am reading the two-volume work and intended to review it. But Professor Polya's articles suffice as an introduction to Genocide in Iraq. Washington has committed a terrible crime in our name. Washington not only murdered Iraq, Washington has murdered the Middle East. Washington and its despicable vassals--"the Coalition of the Willing"--are responsible for a Middle East Holocaust.

For people in the Anglo-American world who have a moral conscience, the facts are soul-wrenching. The populations of the countries whose governments comprised "the Coalition of the Willing" are contaminated with war crimes committed by their governments in the Iraq Genocide. A progressive modern state was obliterated, and 2.7 million Iraqi people were murdered.

#6  Actually, according to Masha Gessen's brilliant book "The man without a face", it was Vlad "Poisoner" Putin who introduced the first-strike doctrine in his first ever action when appointed acting president in 1999 (if you don't count giving his predecessor Yeltsin immunity from prosecution which was technically first but not really to do with runnig the state, just a pay-off).

#5  Most of our (and everybody's) government takes the point of view that the world would run oh so much smoother without a bunch of tacky proles running around messing things up.

#4  Tranzis rule DC. Tranzis are enemies general of humankind. Ergo, Washington is dangerous to humankind. Snail darter, however, is perfectly safe.

#2  It was called "Flexible Response" during the Cold War, where ala US INFS Moscow did not know whether a highly-accurate, Nuke-tipped Pershing or GLCM, etc. would be fired at a Soviet frontal battle group or at Moscow itself, + which included preemptive strike options.

In the 21st century, GMD-TMD is as potent and valued as the original Nuclear Triad + ultimately the MAD Doctrine itself.

* SNAFU/FUBAR = iff the US-Allies fail to stop the Global Jihad, + in fact help to directly or indirectly nuclearize same, THE SO-CALLED "US" NUCLEAR TRIAD OF THE COLD WAR + 20TH CENTURY = MAY DEVOL INTO THE "ISLAMIC/ISLAMOMERIKAN" NUCLEAR TRIAD + GMD-TMD OF THE POST-9-11, GWOT ISLAMIC WORLD CONQUEST OF THE 21ST CENTURY.

The OWG Mighty USSA = OWG Weak USRoA = is no different than Russia, China, + India, etc. in being vulnerable to the Jihad + ESPEC THE "GREAT GAME".

OWG or no OWG, Jihad or no Jihad, America or Amerika, the "Great Game" never ends.
