'Cuban Missile Crisis In Slow Motion'
The Swearing In Of President George W Bush

As Cheney Flirts With
Woolsey's World War IV Option
"Although Downing Street publicly
insists that Bush and Blair remain 'closely in touch' on the Iranian threat, some British
officials are privately concerned that Dick Cheney, the hardline American vice-president, is driving the
administration’s policy on Iran.... One well known US weapons specialist last week
described the Iranian nuclear issue as 'the Cuban missile
crisis in slow motion'.... [there are] reports in Israel that Washington is secretly encouraging Tel
Aviv to strike.... an Israeli
attack would demolish the Middle Eastern peace process and provide Arab terrorist groups
with a potentially lethal recruiting tool.... what British
officials believe is a persuasive argument against a military attack: far from encouraging
Iranian reformers to rise up against their theocratic government, any form of US
intervention might unite the country behind Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the country’s
supreme leader."

"These are the actions of a national
security state, and the United States has to decide if that is what it wants to become.
I've been resisting that idea for 30 years. Once we become a national security state, it's
goodbye to the America that was to be that shining city on the hill."

Will Cheney
And Rice Give Israel The Green Light
To Attack Iran?
".....on the same day that Mr Bush
warned tyrants around the world that he would devote the next four years to destroying
their regimes with an 'untamed fire of freedom', Mr Cheney lost no time to get to the
point. 'You look around the world at potential troublespots, Iran is right at the top of
the list,' the Vice-President said in a television interview. 'Given the fact that Iran
has a stated policy that their objective is the destruction of Israel, the Israelis might
well decide to act first and let the rest of the world worry about cleaning up the
diplomatic mess afterwards.' ..... Condoleezza Rice, the incoming Secretary of State, had
branded six countries — Cuba, Burma, North Korea, Iran, Belarus and Zimbabwe —
as 'outposts of tyranny' during her Senate confirmation hearings this week. ”
Cheney says Iran is priority hotspot
London
Times, 21 January 2005
".... And there [in Iran] the issue is
certainly not tyranny; it's nuclear weapons. And the vice president today in a kind of a
strange parallel statement to this declaration of freedom hinted that the Israelis may do
it and in fact used language which sounds like a
justification or even an encouragement for the Israelis to do it. And I happen to think that this would be very destabilizing in the
region. We would be viewed as complicit. It would intensify the problems that we are
already facing in manifold fashion...."

"[The Bush inauguration speech]
repackages his attitude, instead of talking about fear, which he's been talking a lot
about in the last four years, creating in effect a fear-driven nation. He talks about
freedom. Instead of talking about terror, he talks about tyranny...."

Security Adviser,
PBS News Hour, 20 January 2005
"President Bush's pledge to spread
freedom to the darkest corners of the Earth has been greeted with scepticism at home and
hostility abroad. The day after he vowed to work towards ending tyranny, analysts
questioned how his rhetoric meshed with the realities of US economic and military
interests. In its pursuit of the War on Terror, the US depends economically, logistically
or politically on at least six countries that could fall into the category of
'oppressors': Russia, China, Pakistan, Uzbekistan, Saudi Arabia and Egypt. 'The US is
closing its eyes towards dictators who serve its own interests, but attacks those that
damage it,' Abdul Hussein Shaaban, an Iraqi analyst, said.... The US receives 20 per cent
of its oil imports from Saudi Arabia, a critical strategic ally. Yet the State Department
states that the kingdom is guilty of 'prohibitions or severe restrictions on the freedoms
of speech, press, peaceful assembly and association, and religion; denial of the right of
citizens to change their government; systematic discrimination against women and ethnic
and religious minorities; and suppression of workers’ rights'.”
Will Bush still do business with these 'oppressive' allies?
London
Times, 22 January 2005
"......it now appears as if the United States, in an effort to take the offensive against the fighters in Iraq, is prepared to compound its past mistakes in Iraq by embarking on a new course of action derived from some of the darkest, and most embarrassing moments of America's modern history. According to press accounts, the Pentagon is considering the organisation, training and equipping of so-called death squads, teams of Iraqi assassins who would be used to infiltrate and eliminate the leadership of the Iraqi resistance. Called the Salvador Option, in reference to similar US-backed death squads that terrorised the population of El Salvador during the 1980s, the proposed plan actually has as its roots the Phoenix assassination programme undertaken during the Vietnam war, where American-led assassins killed thousands of known or suspected Vietcong collaborators. Perhaps it is a sign of the desperation felt inside the Pentagon, or an underscoring of the ideological perversity of those in charge, that the US military would draw upon the failed programmes of the past to resolve an insoluble problem of today.... History, on the other hand, treats harshly the occupying power which resorts to
the use of the tools of terror to subdue an occupied people.... Having started the game of politically motivated assassination, the US has once again found itself trumped by forces inside Iraq it does not understand, and as such will never be able to defeat. The Salvador Option fails on a number of levels. First and foremost is the moral and ethical one..... history will condemn the immorality of the American occupation, which has debased the values and ideals of the American people by legitimising torture, rape and murder as a means of furthering an illegal war of aggression. Ethics aside, the Salvador Option will fail simply because it cannot succeed.... If implemented, the Salvador Option will serve as the impetus for all-out civil war.... We not only invaded Iraq on false pretences, but we perverted the notion of liberation by removing Saddam and his cronies from his palaces, replacing them with American occupiers who have not only kept open Saddam's most notorious prisons, but also the practice of torture, rape and abuse we were supposed to be bringing to an end.""In his second inaugural address,
delivered to tens of thousands in front of a snowy Capitol building in Washington, but
pointedly directed at friends and enemies around the world, President Bush dedicated
himself and the next four years to no less than the ending of tyranny on Earth......Of
course, the ambition needs to be measured against uncomfortable reality. Mr Bush hardly
touched on the difficulties that the US is having in creating basic democratic
institutions in Iraq. He did not mention Iraq by name once. Critics will note
unacknowledged inconsistencies. In Pakistan, in Central and East Asia, tyrants can still get a welcome at the White House if they are on
America’s side. Is Russian suppression of dissident
minorities immune? Is Saudi Arabia’s treatment of its people exempt? Indeed, a cynic
might point out that some of the biggest problems that the US has had in the past four
years have been not with tyrannies, but with democracies whose people were unwilling to
sign on to its goals in the Middle East and beyond. "

"If the actions -
rather than the words - of the oil business's major players provide the best gauge of how
they see the future, then ponder the following. Crude oil prices have doubled since 2001,
but oil companies have increased their budgets for exploring new oil fields by only a
small fraction. Likewise, U.S. refineries are working close to capacity, yet no new
refinery has been constructed since 1976. And oil tankers are fully booked, but outdated
ships are being decommissioned faster than new ones are being built."

"I think the claim
can be plausibly made that the potential impact of this research exceeds that of any other
on-going social or psychological research programme. The research has survived a broader array of statistical tests than most research in the field of conflict resolution; I think
this work and the theory that informs it deserve the most serious consideration by
academics and policy makers alike." |

"These studies have
been scrutinized and published in
respected peer-reviewed journals such as Social Indicators Research, Journal of
Conflict Resolution, Journal of Mind and Behavior and Journal of Crime and Justice. This
coherence-creating effect has also been documented on a global scale in a study published
in the Journal of Offender Rehabilitation. ... during [large experimental testing in] the
years 1983-1985, international conflict decreased 33%, terrorist casualties decreased 72%
and violence was reduced in other nations without intrusion by other governments....
Invincible Defense Technology is the only scientifically validated means to prevent
terrorism. There are no peer-reviewed studies that that show that strategies and tactics
such as military bombing prevent terrorism."

"The foundation
of the
film director David Lynch and the US Peace Government
organization are planning to open a Peace University in Moscow. In an interview to
ITAR-TASS news agency, Lynch said that the university plans to open within a year. The
organization plans also to open similar universities in St. Petersburg and Rostov-on-Don
in South Russia. The US Peace Government was established on July 4, 2003 to bring
prevention-oriented, problem-free administration to the U.S. Its mission is to prevent
social violence, terrorism and war, and to promote peace and harmony throughout the world,
its website says. 'Moscow is a very interesting, open city but it is prone to negative
tendencies,' Lynch was quoted by the agency as saying. 'A Peace University is necessary
for it. It is important to try all means in the fight against crimes, terrorism or wars.
We propose to do it with the help of group meditation.' Lynch said he will be among the
professors to give lectures in the university. The first university will be opened in
Washington D.C. in roughly 6 months. The organization also plans to open further
universities in the Middle East, India and Pakistan. The universities will have tuition
fees for its peaceful education, about $2,500 per year for Moscow. 'The time for education
depends on the personal traits of character and talent,' Lynch said." Visit US Peace Government Web Site - Click Here |
