From The
Idiot Factor:
Not long ago people complained about
the prison camp at Guantanamo Bay .
Back then President George Bush called those prisoners "enemy
combatants." he said they had no rights at all as enemy soldiers. They had
no right to trial.
Today—many years later—where are the
enemy combatants?
The answer is simple—we no longer take
prisoners. We just kill those who violate our western values. Not since
the US Indian Wars was
there such an attempt to exterminate a people as is now being done in Iraq .
If we go back to World War II, our army
captured many troops and leaders of those troops. Out troops took prisoners in
the Korean War. Not today. We are exterminating them.
So what happens to those who actually
surrender to US led coalition troops?, according to Independent UK
News:
"Iraqi security forces kill Isis prisoners because
they believe that if the militants are sent to prison camps they will bribe the
authorities in Baghdad to release them. “That is why Iraqi soldiers prefer to
shoot them or throw them off high buildings,” says one Iraqi source. A former
senior Iraqi official said he could name the exact sum that it would take for
an Isis member to buy papers enabling him to move freely around Iraq ."
"The leader of an ISIS affiliate in Afghanistan was
killed in a U.S. airstrike
on the groups’ headquarters this week, the Pentagon said Friday.
Abu Sayed, the emir of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria in
the Khorasan Province ,
called ISIS-K, died in Tuesday’s airstrike in Kunar Province ,
a region on Afghanistan ’s
northeast border with Pakistan .
Defense Secretary Jim Mattis told reporters on Friday that
when leaders of terror groups like ISIS-K are killed the groups could be set
back a day, a few weeks or a month. "It's obviously a victory on our side,
in terms of setting them back. It's the right direction," he said."
So we see the proud victory of an Army
that takes no prisoners and celebrates every time the kill an important person.
This is nothing less than genocide.
This country has decided to kill all those who don't fit in with their new
global order. In this war the idea is to wipe out the people who may have
differences of opinion.
Another thing missing is any kind of
negotiating. Our military treats that as weakness. But we have no way of moving
out of this war. There can be no solution to these wars but absolute and total
victory for the US Empire who is now relying on their superior
weapons.
This is one more reason to oppose these
phony wars. We know they are not about terrorism, that is a lie. This is about
defending the US empire
against all those who oppose it. The US started
this war, not them. They are extermination campaigns and nothing less.
