During GWbush's latest speach he mentioned 9/11 some 15 times. Yet the speach was intended to justify the invasion of and occupation in Iraq; a country established (by a commision appointed by GWB himself) to have nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks.
I would suggest the attacks in Mardid make a much more accurate parallel to this current travisty. Still, those claiming responsibility for both these attacks site the invasion/occupation of Iraq as at least one of the reasons for their actions. Along side that coinsidence, are several "reports," some authored by the Pentagon itself, that track a significant rise in world wide "terrorist attacks" since the distruction of the regime in Iraq.
It seems to me that, since the events of 9/11, the US, UK and associated administrations have done more to incite and or inspire these crimes against humanity then actually prevent them. Reactionary escalations, such as some of the actions listed above, are doing just this. Uncovering the root causes for the BOTH 9/11 attacks as well as Mardid, London, Indonesia (weren't there some discos blown up there?) seem to be lossed amidst the proselytizing for more power. Power use on punishment? detainment? militarization? |
