World Blog by humble servant. They can FUEL WHITE PEOPLE RAGE and HATRED. EASY white PEOPLE HATE THEMSELVES they look at them selves in the MIRROR.

Over the years, Washington has presented us with a long list of hate figures, all of them Muslim, whom we have been encouraged to fear, to loathe and, if necessary, to fight: Colonel Gadaffi, Ayatollah Khomeini, Yasser Arafat, Abu Nidal, Hassan Turabi of Sudan, even the pathetic Mohamed Farah Aideed of Somalia have at various times supposedly threatened the national interests of the US. Some, like Khomeini and Abu Nidal, have died; others, like Arafat and possibly Aideed, have been forgiven. Arab dictators who do what we want - maintain the flow of oil, make peace with Israel, buy Western arms - are our allies. Arab dictators who do not play by these rules, or who think that our acquiescence in their abuse of human rights gives them permission to attack the West's interests, are punished. Thus we invaded Egypt when Nasser nationalised the Suez Canal, bombed Gadaffi when he set off explosions in Germany and smashed Iraq when Saddam invaded Kuwait. Nasser was compared by Eden to Mussolini, just as Saddam was later compared to Hitler. But our rules seem to call for the survival of those whom we regard as most evil. Thus thousands of Egyptians were killed in the 1956 Anglo-French-Israeli offensive, dozens of Libyans in the 1986 bombing, tens of thousands of Iraqis in the 1991 assault on Iraq. But Nasser, Gaddafi and Saddam were spare.Arabs are coming to realise that the Israelis will not remove Jewish settlements from the West Bank; will not end their construction of settlements around Arab east Jerusalem; and will not withdraw - only "redeploy" - their troops in occupied land. Watching the humiliation of Yasser Arafat and the embarrassment of King Hussein of Jordan, President Assad of Syria, ultimately Saddam's most implacable Arab enemy, views the whole peace "bulldozer" with increasing distrust. If Assad does not sign up for peace soon, many Arabs are saying, the Israelis will try some military "persuasion" on him, probably in Lebanon.
