David Johnson,
This belongs on Peace-discuss, NOT on Peace. If you respect the lists, those on the list will be more likely to respect you.

Lets not forget that the CIA helped to create,
finance, arm, train and encourage Al Queda and the Taliban against the populist
left-wing government of Afganistan during the late 1970's and most of the
1980's. Lets also not forget the right-wing fanatical Jewish settlers who
violently attack unarmed Palestinian civilians including women, old
people and children, ALL financed from OUR tax dollars via the corporate
controlled U.S. Government, in order to steal their land.
Hebrig is trying to imply from his last post that
the U.S. military occupation of Afganistan and yes Iraq ( 100,000 private
mercenaries, 50,000 U.S. troops in 12 U.S. military bases and an embassy larger
than the Vatican ) is for humanitarian and democracy reasons. Democracy and
human rights has NEVER been a priority of the U.S. government since the end of
World War II. Its all about corporate control of low wages and cheap natural
resources that exclusively benefits the 1 %, at the expense of the rest of us,
THE WORKING CLASS !
And yes Hebrig, rather you are in denial or not, YOU
are also Working Class !

Religious fundamentalists try
to murder girl for seeking education.
The religious fundamentalists the Taliban
have tried to murder 14 year old school girl Malala Yousafzai because she spoke
out to say she wanted to be a doctor. This is an act of the most extreme and
savage barbarity that must be unconditionally condemned by all. The US press is
full of indignation about this event. However we need to keep in mind a few
things. When it suited them one US government after another worked with the
Taliban to try and achieve its aims in Afghanistan and Central Asia, these aims
were to hem in Russia and China.
We also have to remember that Saudi
Arabia is the most important ally of the US in the Middle East after Israel. And
here is what the New York Times has to say about this extreme fundamentalist
regime, the friend of the Bush family, the US oil industry and US capitalism. In
an article by Nicholas D Kristof in the New York Times October 11th, he wrote:
"One of my greatest frustrations when I travel to Pakistan is that I routinely
spot extremest madrases, or schools, financed by medieval misogynists from Saudi
Arabia or elsewhere. They provide meals, free tuition and sometimes scholarships
to lure boys - because their donors understand perfectly that education
shapes countries." So these allies and friends of the US capitalist class are
financing the very outfits and pushing the very ideas that nurture the Taliban
and end up killing young girls.
Like the fundamentalist religious nut
cases everywhere, whether in the Islamic world, or the Jewish world or the
Christian world, these ideas and people are a threat to a civilized society and
especially to women.
