The truth about the new imperialistic war of USA
Part 1

At first glance, it looks as if USA has gone crazy! In fact they have become very dangerous! They look like a wild animal of the jungle that attacks, kills and brings disaster!
Despite the propaganda (about the opposite), USA policy is the traditional way of performing an imperialistic attack. In order to deal with the confrontations and conflicts with the other imperialistic powers, USA make use of weapon, bombs, aircraft-carriers and organize wars like the current war in Afghanistan. In this way, they try to preserve their domination forever.
The events of 11th September gave Bush and the other leaders of imperialistic countries a very good chance to send a new expeditionary force against Afghanistan. And it was difficult for them to hide their joy. The tears of the American president after the terrorist attack in New York and Washington were feigned, covering the Machiavellian nature of American imperialistic policy.
It was the opportunity that the American leadership was seeking for a long time. Their immediate response proved that they were preparing for this new military action long before the 11th of September. American policy had already designed military plans and intervention scenarios, referring to the area of Central Asia. The so-called antiterrorist military campaign had been designed before, and they were waiting for the right time to perform it!
The whole imperialistic system, in full cooperation with Mass Media, appeared to be fully prepared. The provocation of CNN with the fake celebrations of young Palestinians out in the streets is a typical example. Very soon it was revealed that this instance was filmed ten years ago!
Bush keeps repeating all the phrases he has memorized in order to persuade for the necessity of the war. "War for justice "!, "War for peace"! "War against terrorism"! All the “war phrases” he has memorized, He speaks of all the kinds of wars he has memorized, in order to hide the one and only truth. That this war is an imperialistic war!
It is well known that the people, all real human beings have a different opinion about the words peace-justice-terrorism than that of imperialists. For Bush and the American government, these words are meant to cover an interest pursuing policy. Who could ever believe that a barbaric war, with bombs and missiles killing unarmed people and destroying a whole country, is made for peace and justice? In the same way as previously, the contrast between justice of people and justice of imperialists is revealed. And the contrast between the true peace that people desire and the “peace” of those that stir up war.
American imperialists have managed during this phase to unite all the imperialists under their rule in order to promote their war plans. Their real goal was the universal leadership and the control of the strategic region of Central Asia and especially the installation of a controlled regime in Kabul. This was not a new plan. They have tried it before and they will keep trying it.
The reactionary Islamic regimes and the reactionary Islamic organizations seem to be surprised by the American aggressiveness. It is well known that most of them were supported by the Americans in the previous period. Now they try to react and confront the new situation, but they are in a very difficult position.
In Qatar, the Islamic conference showed that, despite their given opposition to the American military attack, the representatives of the Islamic countries did not proceed to an open condemnation of the attack. Furthermore, they did not succeed to conclude to a uniform attitude. They balance with difficulty between the complete obedience to the American orders and the powerful internal opposition of their people. The crisis in Pakistan is a characteristic example. A common feature is the absence of a clear policy towards the new situation, both global and local, having as a result the adoption of a relatively pathetic attitude. They expect to take advantage of their closeness with the Americans, but this is not very probable for the near future. Pakistan is the only Islamic country that seems to try to take advantage of the situation, which is inevitable since it in the focus area of American military plans. Islamabad’s regime cannot easily get free from the American influence and dependence. Its serious economic problems, antagonism with India, now focused in the region of Kashmir, as well as its pursuit to become the crossway of commercial routes and oil-transportation, force it to conform to the American pursuits.
The new crisis between India and Pakistan, focused at Kashmir, is actually an effort of Mousharaf ’s regime to take advantage of the crucial role it has in the current phase. Pakistan believes that it can gain more favor and support from USA for its conflict with India.
Iran has the attitude of a remote observer. The internal oppositions between the reformers of Hatami and the powerful religious leaders prevent it from defining a clear policy. The main feature of its policy is “act according to the situation”.
Finally, as far as the Islamic organizations are concerned, currently these organizations have undertaken the confrontation with USA policy, mobilizing masses of people from Indonesia to Sudan, but their potential is limited. They call for a holy war, support Taleban’s regime and organize large public demonstrations. However, it seems that this is the most they can do. Their characteristics and their role in the preceding period, being accomplices in a series of crimes, in cooperation with the Islamic regimes, make them rather unreliable candidates for the majority of the people’s masses. They cannot form a strong power of resistance that can revert the process.
