The U.S. 'War of Territory'

FPF - January 3, 2007 - In the 'debate' and articles in the US junta's propaganda media concerning the illegal invasion of Somalia by the U.S. (tax) paid, equipped and trained Ethiopian and Ugandan troops - the words oil, gas and/or natural resources mostly are missing. Ordered by Washington's warmongers in their 'guidelines for the media' was that via their war propaganda people should not be made to wonder about the CIA and Ethiopia's breach of Somali sovereignty.* Or think about who's doing this again. You're reading this on Internet because you are not supposed to know the facts about the US/CIA having another proxy war in Africa.
The story - Washington in it's ukase warned - should not be about the illegality of the CIA made invasion nor concerning the proven reserves of all natural resources in the area in this 'War of Territory'. Not a word is supposed to be said or published about the 25 billion cubic meters of natural gas in the US's colony Ethiopia, or the 'barrel billions' of oil in Somalia and Sudan. To the northern part Darfur - where most of the oil is and the Chinese must be thrown out - the US/NATO war planners intend to send 22.000 armed troops - so called UN 'peace keepers' to give 'humanitarian help.' The Dutch 'special UN observer' Jan Pronk was kicked out because he kept advocating the illegal and unwanted invasion of those 22.000 'UN" troops. Pronk was helping the US junta to get the oil, and not get help for the Sudanese people who needed it. It didn't matter apparently that according to The Daily Telegraph (UK) UN troops in south Sudan were raping children.*
A BLOODY JOKE
The often used expression ' humanitarian help' is a US/UN euphemism for illegal occupation and literally more of a yoke than a bloody joke. At first and like nearly everywhere on earth the US and it's 'special forces' with psy-ops start making local problems. Also slyly bombing friend and foe, blowing up people in markets and mosques, on ships or in air planes in 'false flag' operations to sow any form of hate and thus division among local people in the territories they want to rule. Whether it is in former USSR countries in Eastern Europe or in Africa. The people are than blamed for this US made 'civil war'. Latin America is high on the CIA/NED's hit list. With Venezuela's oil and president Hugo Chavez' humane idea's very close, it's probably next on the list of the US junta. The CIA's jackals have already been at work for a long time.*
To realize the 'divide and rule' system they'll rape, torture, bomb and kill in every way possible, reproting the fakes too and even filming the disasters which than always are blamed on 'al Qaeda' or something similar and unprovable. But when you ask why in the areas and countries where the US/UN is 'helping' with food etc, the life expectancy everywhere lowers, you won't get an honest answer. In extremely poor countries like Somalia and Ethiopia the US/UN, IMF, World Bank or European Union (all the same 'firm') so called 'humanitarian help' has resulted in a deadly drop from forty-eight (48%) percent to forty-three-dot-eight percent. (43.8%) Those organisations and the US war machine also 'help' them in a premature grave. Like in all countries 'they' have colonized or try to usurp for their fake 'empire' and 'create their own reality' as the Washington 'crazies' say.
UN'S MOONIE: DEATH PENALTY Á LA CARTE?
False information has been and is permanently distributed by global propaganda outlets like CNN, FOX or the BBC, with all global criminally collaborating junta media, and than the by the US 'run' United Nations produces the usual 'fig leaf' for the killing and drilling, some kind of 'UN resolution' asking for ''immediate help to solve this humanitarian problem''. A problem which is one hundred percent made in the U.S.A. and enforced by the junta's spinners. The former Foreign Minister Ban Ki-Moon from US colony South Korea and now installed as the US 'front man' at the helm of the UN yesterday gaffed, said what was on his brainwashed mind and stated: "that every country is responsible for meting out capital punishment". Not true and totally contrary to the UN Charter which he is supposed to upheld.
In a very clumsy way it was later retracted. But that's how he and the US 'crazies' think. The fact that the US democrats tomorrow take the Senate does not make one iota of a difference. There is absolutely no difference whatsoever between republicans or democrats. With only a few and rare exceptions those corrupt demo-rats have voted for all the US junta's wars, shredding the Constitution and $trillions to be stolen from the tax payers.
THE UNTOUCHABLES - REWARDING THE KILLERS OF US TROOPS
The financial group steering the wars* is not interested in human beings, religion or politics: there's only one global goal and that's the control of all natural resources in as much territory as is possible. As my decades old favorite Tom Lehrer always sang: And when in doubt, send the Marines!* Like now again in the Horn of Africa. In Somalia it doesn't even matter to the warmongers to pay former killers of United States and UN troops or other by the people despised characters. As long as they do what the war profiteers say. Because whatever the criminal warlords in Somalia say or think: their global masters 'run' the show and get the profits. And there is no law or court anywhere in this world which can stop them. They are the 'untouchables'. - [BIS - http://tinyurl.com/yj7p5b]
Author Justin Raimondo has a good point when writing: "The failed UN/U.S. intervention of 1993 led directly to the triumph of the warlords, who plundered, raped, and murdered their way through the streets of Mogadishu, the Somalian capital, and reduced the country to Mad Max territory. In response, an "Islamic courts" movement sprang up to impose some sort of cohesion on a rapidly disintegrating social order. The business community and public opinion rallied behind these courts, which were and are all that stand between civilization and savagery in Somalia.
As I’ve pointed out before, the long history of U.S. intervention in Somalia is a veritable case study of how and why American foreign policy always manages to generate the deadliest, most horrific "blowback," as the intelligence professionals put it. Blowback, a concept exhaustively explored in Chalmers Johnson’s classic book of the same title, means the unintended consequences of our bumbling, culturally tone-deaf, invariably unsuccessful efforts to manipulate local proxies to maximize our alleged national interests.
AIDED AND ABETTED BY THE U.S.
In the 1990s, the Americans intervened in the name of "humanitarianism," against the warlords; in the new millennium, we have tossed aside humanitarian concerns in favor of the ruthless pursuit of "terrorists," real or imagined. The former "warlords" hunted by U.S. troops and blamed for Somalia’s shocking degeneration into pure chaos are now aided and abetted by the Americans and their Ethiopian cohorts."
And those according to the Geneva Conventions war criminals apparently are the new 'front people' for the US junta's warlords. Somalian thugs which are the CIA's new 'friends' even if they killed and fought the US war machine before. The 'Black Hawk Down' story does not impress anybody making money out of blood. The US junta's consigliere Heinrich Kissinger, this plague of humanity and war criminal #1, said it aloud: "Soldiers are just dumb animals to be used."
Concerning this the well known Canadian foreign correspondent Eric Margolis writes about the US junta blundering into Somalia and this part of Africa: "The US-backed and financed Ethiopian offensive was clearly designed to crush the first stable government strife-torn Somalia has had in 15 years of civil war and anarchy. The new Islamic regime, known as the Union of Islamic Courts (UIC), recently managed to bring law and order to much of southern and central Somalia. In the north, a secessionist group has proclaimed something called independent "Puntland."
The Union of Islamic Courts ended Somalia’s long civil war by crushing local warlords who were being armed and financed by the CIA. The US claims the Islamic Courts is a second Taliban-style movement containing "terrorists" involved in the 1998 bombings of US embassies in East Africa who will turn Somalia into a hotbed of anti-American subversion. The UIC denies these allegations.
More important, under the Bush/Cheney Administration, any movement that has the audacity to call itself "Islamic" immediately becomes a target of American hostility. The embarrassing total defeat of US-backed Somali warlords by the Islamic Courts militia led directly to Washington’s decision to press Ethiopia to invade Somalia. Ethiopia has one of Africa’s more powerful, well-trained armed forces with over 1,300 tanks and a modern air force that are now increasingly equipped and aided by the United States."*
AS A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN MISSING AN EYE
As an observer of international affairs Eric Margolis is a very good writer who of course in this article on the new quagmire in Africa can not write everything he knows. But here again - like salt in the soup - I miss the words oil, gas and natural resources. It's a very good item, but the article is as a beautiful woman missing an eye.
Because globally the theft of oil and gas - plus the rest - is what this whole 'US junta made misery' is about again. It's definitely not about propaganda stories concerning the abuse of child soldiers, religion, local politics, the US home made bogeyman al Qaeda* or other malicious and US junta made catastrophes.
Whatever 'they' say: it's a sometimes secret terror war for territory and control of the natural resources.
Fuel for the US junta and it's Golem* the war machine.
Nothing else.
