A lot of recent media talk indicates a very likely joint US - Israeli miltary strike on Iran. This will be the beginning of another cycle of violence in the middle-east and again initiated by the USA acting as the sole policeman of the world.
What gives the United States of America the right to invade any country under justifications that staisfy only the USA.
What gives the USA the right to interfer in the internal politics of any country and try to topple the regime when that regime does not conform with or acts in favor of US policies.

Examples of the above practices by the USA are so many and I can name a few here for the record. The invasion of Iraq and toppling the regime there was all done under the false allegations that Iraq owns weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and that those weapons will be a threat to the safety of Americans if they fall in the wrong hands of the Al Qaeda opertaives.
The regime of Saddam Hussein was so unpredictable and was not dancing to the tunes coming from Washington. Therefore Washington invaded Iraq with two objectives:
1. To clean up the country from the WMD and destroy any capabilities of producing such weapons in the future.
2. To rid the country from the regime of Saddam Hussein; who was now seen by the white house as a ruthless dictator, and to give the Iraqi people the chance to live under true democracy.

To date, WMD were not found in Iraq and it has become so clear to everyone that the whitehouse had fabricated a lot of the intelligence reports upon which the decision to invade Iraq was based; a decision that was taken against the concensus of The United Nations.

Now in the fourth year after that invasion, an estimated 750,000 Iraqi people have been killed and almost 30% of the Iraqi people have been displaced from their homes or fled their country for safety.
Did the US military find any trace of WMD in Iraq? We all know the answer to that is a big NO!
I am really surprised why the white house adminstration did not place such WMD in a couple of places in Iraq and show that they have found something.
With the way the US went to war unilterally against Iraq, it could fake something like that easily and wouldn't care if anyone found out the truth.

The American invasion on Iraq has destroyed the country and torn the people apart. There is more of a civil war there now than any democracy to write about.

The USA failed in Iraq. It failed to achieve any of the objectives it set for itself as targets to achieve. It destroyed a nation and murdered so many innocent lives and defied the United Nations and what it stands for.

If the underlying cause of invading Iraq is to take control of the oil fields, then this is broad light armed robbery par excellence.

Is it justice to humanity that a nation like that can exist and act in such a way and go unpunished?
How can anyone know all this, read about it daily, see it on TV daily, and just do nothing about it.
Isn't it time that people all around the world should make themselves heard?

Today like never before people from all over the world are interconnected via the internet, and today like never before we can commnicate freely. This is a great intellectual force which we must use to save people against injustice and to save the planet from being abused.

International politics will change in the near future because the world today is no more what it used to be. We are no more isolated countries in divided communities not knowing what is going on in another adjacent city.

Today we are more like a population living in one big place called Planet Earth. We all want to co-operate to make sure that our brothers and sisters living anywhere on the planet are living happily and being treated fairly. We wnat to make sure that they are not living in poverty and being murdered.

Today we have the means of knowing as things and events happen and therfore we can act to stop any injusticwe and inhumane acts. The old days are gone when atrocities and injustice will be committed and the world gets to know only when it is too late to do anything about it.

I call uopn everyone connected via the internet to participate here and call for stopping the horrors that are being committed against humanity in Iraq, Palestine, Sudan, Somalia and other places.
