War on Terrorisim.....Your Opinion?

[Venom]

you want stop them and never will..

 

 

 

the fact you think war is over terorism shows you how good propoganda is these days.

 

That's the genius of the American propaganda machine: The people that are watching don't know that it's propaganda.

Terrorism is a tactic. You can't declare war on a tactic. A major factor that contributed the rise of radical Islam was US interventionism in the Middle East. In 1953 the CIA removed the democratically elected president Mossadegh because he nationalised the oil industry in Iran. The United States installed the Shah that oppressed the Iranian people, tortured and killed thousands, and that led to the Iranian Islamic revolution in 1979 and the resurgence of Shia Islam and the taking of the American hostages. The rise of Shia Islam threatened the Sunnis, so the Sunnis too radicalised in an even more radical form of Islam - Wahhabism - which the CIA also endorsed in the 1980s. Recent interventions in the Middle East is only generating more illicited hatred and resentment towards the United States.

 

 

 

It's unfortunate that most Americans don't know the history and aren't familiar with the concepts of "blowback".
