Mysterious war by Karl Carlile 26 September 2001 15:17 UTC |

The war that Washington is to wage is a war that we are not just expected to support. It is demanded by Uncle Sam that we support it. Yet this is a war that none of us know anything about --except the Pentagon. We are expected to support is a war the aims, strategy and tactics of which we know nothing. We are expected to put lives at risk and support the loss of lives for a war about which we are told nothing. Many of the states signing up for this war know little or nothing about what kind of war this is going to be. They cannot be even sure as to what the targets are. What a contradiction. What kind of states sign up under such conditions? Clearly they are venal states that dont really concern themselves with the human consequences of such a war. All such states think about is there short term survival even if it means the loss of thousands of civilian lives, mass starvation and dislocation. No doubt some of them have been offered some carrots in return for their co-operation. They are prepared to thousands of civilians put at risk for a carrot or two. It is an indication too of the power of an imperialism that can coerce states into signing up to a war concerning which they know nothing. Clearly this is a cause of concern as much as, if not more, than the attack on the Manhattna WTC.
