RE: [nukkad] Communists in Government Cynthia's concerns

["Mean Drake" <>]

In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: 
it goes on. -Robert Frost, poet (1874-1963)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I sometimes wonder why the image of a prisoner with underwear over his head
arouses more sympathy from some than a movie of a civilian with no head at
all. The US is its own country and will do what the US feels is its own
interest not what you feel is in the best interest of the US or of humanity
or of other countries. Bush is not entirely to blame as well. Remember 9/11
occurred when Bush was only 7 months into office and it is Clinton who in
his preceding 8 years at the oral....sorry oval office did nothing to curb
the rise of growth of terrorism against them.

OK, India is not like the US....doesn't go interfere with their internal
matters and invade countries without reason. Why then do we have people
plotting attacks on parliament and killing thousands in Kashmir? That's
because Islamic Terrorists will never see reason or light. Jihad must be
done. Its what the children are taught in their religious schools
(madrassas). And if you feel there is a gulf between the way Americans feel
and the rest of the world feels....why not??? The rest of the world is not
American. Americas best interests need not be their own.

I say all this not cos I am pro-american BUT because I would like to see
things from an unbiased outsiders viewpoint.

This was posted either in full or as link on nukkad itself about an
year ago. The site gave dated and timed transcripts of actual wireless
messages between US submarine commander and the US base at pearl
Harbour and the US higher officials. The people at Pearl Harbour were
intentionally kept ignorant of Japanese plans to attack, though the US
had full and exact and advance knowledge of the attack. Just
imagine--US knowingly sacificing its own ship/submarine and personnel
so as to be able to blame Japan for attack and thereby get an excuse
to drop not one but two atom bombs on it!

Fact is stranger than fiction. This could be perfect movie stuff.
Alas! It is not. Duplicity, self centreness and selfishness and
hypocrisy of US is unbelievable. It is true that every nation has
right to protect its own interests. However, US thinks it has a right
to undermine others' interests if it perceives it to be in its own
interest. Such attitude can come only through moral bankruptsy, of
which I do accuse [or, pity] US. Come to think of it--what morals has
US given to the world? None. Rather, it has corrupted world morals. It
is on the backing of US that a tiny country of 5 million [Israel] can
dare to make a Head of state a prisoner in his own home and make a
public declaration that it is its avowed aim to kill him. Just as the
master vowed to capture Osama and, Andher Nagri Chaupat Raja style,
captured saddam instead, the puppy is barking and biting the civilians
in their own territory. Another puppy, the hero of rail and telephone
etc. in India [in Rawat's words],  is licking the boots of the big
brother and smelling, for him, the buried WMD [remember the British
study, rvealing the WMD] which was mere plagiarisation of a research
thesis written 3-4 years earlier!].

I am sorry if I sound cut up, but, I AM cut up. As doctors, both of us
know that there is merit in shock therapy. I am trying to give such
therapy to Cynthia, who has lived so far in a protected environment,
which encourages the false belief that America is God's own country,
Americans are God's own people and American policies are God's own
policies, implemented on earth by that neo-shepherd of a bushman.

As regards hypocrisy, here is the poem that follows this very title:

3. HYPOCRISY*--705759 -QUATRAIN--       aabb

I defend the human rights
Let no one challenge my rights
My wishes are but my rights
Let others forget their rights

I defend democracy
This is US policy
But for countries that remain
Dictators may, as well, reign

I defend environment
As a holy sacrament
To be top guzzler of oil
Is my right, let none this spoil

I defend the equal rights
Of Hispanics, blacks and whites
But for going to the jail
Blacks and Hispanics prevail

In US we must have fun
Why ban porn and why ban gun
Why ban these and wield the axe
On major sources of tax?

True we are a country great
Don't know, why people us hate
What if I drop a few bombs  
I drop also beans and crumbs**

People of the world, know thou
This is but to behave how
Lord, Master, I am for you
Forget this, and I get you.


* There is a gulf between the views regarding USA held by Americans
and the rest of the world. This poem puts this in perspective.

**Refers to dropping of yellow food packets containing beans and bread
in Afghanistan
