Question:-
I am puzzled with what is going on in Iraq and Afghanistan.
I am fed up with the one-sided news from the Western media.
It does not really make much sense.
Can you tell me what is going on?
Answer:-
I am not in Iraq or Afghanistan and do not have any first
hand knowledge about what is going on there.
But I suspect that people who are in Iraq or Afghanistan
are too close to things to see what is going on.
But speeking from the impressions I have it seems
that in both countries the Americans have set up Puppet governments
and they are pulling the strings.
The people themselves have no say in matters and have no resources
to do anything about it for the most part except that there are
resistance or other groups of various sizes that are unco-ordinated
have different agenda and do not co-operate.
The American and British Policy is to "divide and rule" and in this
they have succeeded, setting Iraqis against Iraqis and Afghans against
Afghans.
The result to be achieved in thorough demoralisation and the collapse of
the social and cultural system so as to create a vacuum which will
allow Westernisation or Americanisation. This, of course involves
the domination of their industries, institutions and perverse values and
purposes.
Muslims being mostly in a degenerate state have fallen for these tactics.
However, there is a longing and even an expectation that a strong
leader will arise who will unite the people, expel the invaders
and solve their problems.
But whether one will arise soon or whether they will recognise and follow
one if he arises is uncertain.
