The loss of three major cities in Iraq and
the territory around it is a major blow for the US Empire and planned American Century that the US has been trying to create. It
was a real blow is to see US trained puppet soldiers running from battle and
throwing off their uniforms. For anti-imperialists such as I, it was great to see
the US house of cards begin to fall. It was not such a good feeling to see the
people of Iraq subjected to Islamic fundamentalists.
George W. Bush Invaded Iraq, in March 20, 2003. He focused on
non-existent weapons of mass destruction and tried to pretend it has something
to do with 9/11. In reality he tried to put the American Century plan into
action. The American Century was a document that openly championed the US
becoming the major empire in the world and creating a type of one world
government.
Bush’s invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan began the process
of putting that plan into action through brute force. Bush was willing to
conquer entire nations and put into place US style puppet governments to push
US philosophy, politics, economics and even culture. The American Century has
not been refered to in several years. US leaders may have figured that the
policies were to blatantly imperialistic. Yet they have continued to follow
this plan despite the fact that a website put up to promote and explain it has
been taken down.
There is no doubt that this plan was aimed at the
Middle-east since oil and other rich resources are found there. It also
explains why issues of civil war and atrocities in Africa get ignored since
that continent lacks any real resources the US needs, except diamonds which can
come from South Africa.
Right now, extreme Islamic groups are THE major obstacles to
US world domination and for them to take part of Iraq is a real setback—a bloody nose to a world-wide bully. Iraq was the birth place of regime change
and a show place for the phony US style democracy. The plan is for them to
replace dictatorships in the Middle-east. Many pundits on this matter are
citing Syria as the beginning of the problem (See; Jonathan Marcus, BBC). The US
supports the Free Syrian Army, but does not want any of that support to go to
al Qaeda style groups, who have flocked to that country. Now their entire
imperialist plans seem in danger.
For progressives, there is nothing good about a Middle-east
dominated by Islamic fundamentalists. However it is good to see US imperialism
suffer a major defeat.
