FITNA THE MOVIE IS OUT Geert Wilders' film is out. Just a few preliminary thoughts on this. Quoting the Koran and highlighting some dubious sentences is not really convincing. The Bible too contains some unpalatable stuff. Then we see the WTC attack for the umpteenth time. I still ask myself why the US government did everything to prevent intercepting the 'hijackers'. Too much remains uncertain. Moreover, which countries have wreaked havoc all over the world for decades? Yes, the US and Britain, and they are still going at it. Millions of people have been murdered with the help of the CIA and US governments, from South America to Asia, from Argentina to Vietnam. So what is the main source of violence nowadays? It's the neocon United States. And presidents like George W. Bush also say 'Gott mit uns!'. He calls himself a 'Christian', but allows torture, and thinks he is above national and international law. And that is not typical of just one president. The US is convinced of its droit de seigneur, its right to invade and pillage any country without any accountability to the United Nations and its charter. Guardian: "US courts are not bound by the international court of justice or by direct orders from the president, the supreme court ruled today when it refused to allow a fresh hearing for a Mexican on death row." The US supplied Saddam Hussein with weapons and the Taliban with weapons and extremist propaganda for 'strategic' purposes, and so in fact created them. Now they are fighting the spectre they let loose themselves. It's cynical and mad. 10:44:02 AM
