The civil war in Syria is being played out in the western media as Libya the Sequel and there are daily calls for the US, UK, France and other countries to act to prevent the seemingly unwarranted slaughter of civilians in Syrian cities such as Homs.
A recent UN Security Council Resolution calling for President Assad to step down was vetoed by Russia an China and their actions have been derided by the world despite our hypocrisy in the UN when it comes to supporting our own allies such as the many US vetoes over Israel.
Whilst many people see the NATO action in Libya as a success the reality is very different. The country is now in a state of conflict between the various gangs of rebels that we armed who refuse to hand back the weapons we provided them. Not only has al-Qaeda linked terrorists taken control of parts of Libya but they are sending soldiers to Syria to fight against Assad a fact that keeps being overlooked by the Western media. Twice in a year we are on the same side as our supposed “mortal enemy” and to many people it seems like the height of hypocrisy to be fighting al-Qaeda in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Yemen whilst supporting them in Libya and Syria.
What do you think we should do about the Syrian civil war?
The neo-cons, Zionists and warmongers are getting ready for the next step in their plan laid out in the PNAC document, rebuilding America’s defenses, by preparing for war with Iran. This document detailed their desire to dominate the Middle East for it’s natural resources as well as aiding their Israeli allies and their planss for a “greater Israel” by taking out their enemies one by one.
Iraq and Lybia are down, Eygpt has been put in the safe hands of the Egyptian military which will ignore public pressure and carry on following US / Israeli policy objectives and Syria is currently being distabilised by Western supported terrorist groups. With Iran surrounded by US forces in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Iraq and Afghanistan it seems to be only a matter of time and a tinderbox incident to start another full blown war in the Middle East.
The lies being told to the public to sell this unwarranted war come straight from Mossad and CIA playbook that were so successful with Iraq and with the help of a compliant IAEA with it’s new leader follows step by step behind it’s US masters. Let me know what you think about the plans for the next war in this poll. Please leave a comment in the comment section if you chose another option.
The race is on for the next President of the United States of America. After a million TV debates the Republicans are now trying to decide who should stand against the incumbent, Barack Obama. Many people believe that Mitt Romney will be the Republican nominee as he is the candidate of “least change from the status quo”.
Another big government, flip flopping, 1% nominee that will do nothing to restore the country to it’s roots.
Instead of looking for the next enemy to fight to keep the military industrial complex fat and rich and our young men dead or disabled, many people believe we need to forget the false two party paradigm and move away from our current “state of emergency” politics.
This state of affairs has seen Americ turn into Amerika with liberty crushing constitution ignoring laws such as the PATRIOT Act and the NDAA. These laws have not as some fools think been implemented to target the dozen or so terrorists left in Afghanistan but instead to militatise the police and turn the country into a modern day Stazi hell hole. Look at the cops with tanks, machine guns and ex military equipment that cost millions and tell me they are not getting ready for major unrest on the streets of America.
Tell me what you think and if you have any thoughts please leave a comment.
What do you feel about the summary execution of Col. Gaddafi that ended the popular uprising against his regime in Libya. Gaddafi was first attacked from the air by a US drone that killed dozens of people before escaping and hiding in a nearby drain pipe. He was then captured by NTC rebels and summarily executed in defiance of the Geneva Convention on the treatment of captured combatants during war time.
Should he have been held for trial or lynched and shot dead before being kicked and dragged from post to pillar. Let me have your thoughts and please write a comment if you chose “Other”.
What do you think about the Occupy Wall Street protests that are catching the publics imagination and spreading around the world. Are they just left leaning hippies who idealistic dreams will never come to fruition or could this be a turning point that the founding fathers of the USA would be proud to witness if alive today. Do you believe Wall Street has taken your investments, pensions, and bank savings and gambled them away only to be bailed out by your tax money in a parallel universe in which the rich 1% enjoy socialism and the 99% are left with austerity measures, cuts in services and little hope for the future. You can choose multiple options from this poll.
The Palestinians are using the UN as a method to gain recognition for their struggle against Israeli occupation. Over half a century of illegal settlements, refugees, terrorist attacks, intifada’s, and years of negotiations have gotten them nowhere and now they are asking the global community to recognise their tiny state before Israeli settlements reduce it’s size even more. What do you think about this move by the Palestinians to ask the UN to help resolve the problem. Israel was recognised as a state by the UN in 1947 so why not 2011 for the Palestinians?
It has been 10 years since 9.11. In that time the USA has turned into a militaristic semi-police state with over a million US citizens having high security clearance working for various intelligence agencies and the security state has spread to every aspect of citizens lives with wars still raging across the world from Afghanistan to Yemen, Pakistan and now Libya. In those ten years many conspiracy theories have flourished about the events of 9.11 from mini nukes, controlled demolition using nano-thermate or powerful secret weapons, missiles hitting the Pentagon, the view that no planes existed at all and there has been a massive crime and cover up. Or may be you take the view that the US government new beforehand the attacks were occurring and allowed them to go ahead so that they could enact the PATRIOT ACT and geopolitical aims of the PNAC document which had been written many years previously and the Bush regime were waiting for a suitably nasty event to happen so these laws and wars could be implemented. On the tenth anniversary of those horrific events what do you believe happened that day now that you have spent time looking into the events. Was there a conspiracy or just a lot of lucky co-incidences and a failure of intelligence agencies to talk to each other and act together to prevent the attacks from occurring.
What is the biggest threat to humanity at this current point in time. Is it the threat of war between Christians and Islam, the threat of climate change or is the all pervasive spread of capitalism, consumerism and the never ending spiral of debt it generates the biggest threat to our way of life. You tell me.
Who was the worst President of the USA Bush or Obama. Leave partisan political leanings aside and think about the war on terror and how it has effected your country and maybe your own life over the last decade.
Who do you think is the worst person in the world at this point in time? Maybe they are still leading a country or maybe they have left government to earn millions from lucrative business contracts.
Which country poses the most danger to the rest of the world. This might be a country currently engaged in a war or one that is preparing to start one. Or it maybe a country that manages to cause conflicts without directly engaging in war themselves.
What qualities do you think a prospective candidate for the most powerful job in the world should have? Should they be clever and intellectual or stupid but brave. God fearing and righteous or rational and worldly wise. Let me know what you think.
Climate change is all over the news and if the doomsayers are right then we have little time to correct our ways before the environment changes forever. With the recent climategate scandal and the failure at Copenhagen to reach a global agreement I want to know what you think about AGW. Does the climate of the world always change or has human activity contributed to any recent global warming.
Israel and its occupation of the Palestinian territories is always a contentious issue but try attacking Israeli actions in Gaza or it’s recent massacre on the high seas and you are often called anti-semitic. The same tactic is often used when people attack Zionism, the belief that Jews are actually a nation and Israel is their rightful home. Do you think that being someone who is against Zionism automatically means you are an anti-semite?
9.11 was the event that changed millions of peoples lives forever. Whether it was the war in Afghanistan or Iraq or the Patriot Act and Anti Terrorism laws that have reduced peoples civil liberties in western nations all around the world. Ten years later and many questions still remain about the events on that day. What do you think happened?
Democratic government is held up as the ideal form of governance for many people across the globe. People revolt against their existing leaders and cry out democracy all the time. However your government is elected the people who form it and make decisions over our lives are influenced by many factors ranging from powerful lobby groups, military leaders and intelligence agencies, big business and other vested interests. Do you believe that your own government acts in your best interests?
