Honeymoon is over.

for US., British, French, Israel and their Arab Dictators

It appears the honeymoon is over for United States, Britain and France and their medieval style oppressive dictators in the Middle East who deprived their people of basic rights and freedom leave alone the poverty and misery they were subjected to.

 

Popular uprisings have been sweeping   from Yemen to Mauritania, shaking very foundations of   regimes in the region following the Tunisian uprising which overthrew Dictator Ben Ali   –something undreamt of only a month ago.

 

It spread first to Algeria followed by Jordan demanding the removal of their governments. Spontaneous demonstrations in Egypt forced President Hosni Mubarak’s 2son to flee to London last Wednesday and regime is using brute force with United States supplied   tear gas canisters to crush the demonstration though many predict that these demonstrations are yet to gather momentum.

Since the US provides about $1.3 billion in military aid to Egypt a year, the repressive apparatus of the state is seen by many in Egypt as hand in glove with the US.

Hosni Mubarak has become a shameful liability for the Arabs and the Muslims worldwide and thus the people are fighting not only for their political freedom and economic upliftment but also to regain their lost dignity.

 

Mubarak  has been such a great asset to the West and Israel   that Washington Post  citing an Israeli minister   who spoke on condition of anonymity to Israeli media stated  that  Egypt  should  force   to crush the uprising.

Going a step ahead US Vice President Joe Biden said “Mubarak is not a dictator, he shouldn't step down...... and wonders what the Egyptian protesters want”. Certainly Joe Biden needs to go for a refresher course on dictatorship and democracy. 

 

The whole world is watching developments in Cairo, the bastion of the West and Israel   and an active centre for Israel’s secret service Mossad. Thus it is highly unlikely that the West and Israel would allow his fall .Perhaps former UN nuclear chief Mohamed Al Baradi’s arrival in Cairo is an effort   to replace Mubarak and safeguard their interest. 

 

In Yemen a woman activist Karman Tawakul who led student rallies against the government in the capital and sparked a new wave of protests was arrested. She led two protests at Sana’a University, criticizing autocratic Arab leaders and calling on Yemenis to topple President Ali Abdullah Saleh by using text messages and emails.

 On January 27 more than 2200 Arab scholars, politicians, and activists – from over 20 Arab countries – issued an “URGENT APPEAL” in Washington for the defense and consolidation of human rights and democracy in the Arab World.

People throughout the Middle East have been seething with anger for years at the way their rulers suppressed, tortured and subjected them to extreme poverty while the ruling elite live in luxury amidst corruption and collaborate with what the people describe as their sworn enemies-United States, Britain, France and Israel- and help them implement their evil designs on Islam and Muslims.

 

The peoples’; frustration has reached such a stage they think that Israel and the regimes in the region are two sides of the same coin threatening their very survival. Thus the uprising is spreading like wildfire and no one could predict its consequences. Indications are that   Middle East will never be the same and the rulers will not be able to serve their Western masters –US, UK and France- as they did in the past.

 

Carter_Gaza_432_20090616Britain and France, which ruled the Middle East for centuries and claim, together with United States, to be the  guardians of human rights, democracy and freedom, deprive the people in the region even basic human rights.    For example, in the free, fair and rare general elections held in Algeria in 1991 the Muslim party   won the poll with a large majority. Yet the Middle East despots, together with their European proprietors staged a coup, installed a dictator and brutally denied the fruits of democracy and freedom to the people longing to enjoy them.

 

People protested and the armed forces crushed the uprising by killing around 150,000.

 

In the free and fair elections held in January 2006 for the Palestine Authority Parliament, Hamas   won the elections. with   the largest single majority. It was a very clean and peaceful election supervised by former US President Jimmy Carter   The Hamas victory dealt a severe blow to the often repeated Zionist myth that Israel was the only democracy in the Middle East. However the Arab dictators together with their Western masters  Israel crushed this budding democracy and imposed economic blockade punishing the entire 1.5 million Palestinians in Gaza which was turned into an open prison.

 Western conspiracies against Muslim Middle East are not something new. Britain planted Israel in the heart of Middle East to ensure the region remain in turmoil forever. Holding up  the Holy Quran British Prime Minister of the Victorian  age Gladstone  told  the House of Commons that "so long as the Egyptians have got this book ( meaning the Holy Quran) in their hands and that place in Saudi ( meaning  Makkah) , we will never be able to enjoy quiet or peace in that land”.

 

napoleonNapoleon Bonaparte invaded Egypt and introduced a strategy getting Egyptians Muslims to kill each other. This strategy was adopted by both George Bush and Tony Blair when they invaded Afghanistan and Iraq.

 

Thus the endless conspiracies. The ongoing so called war on terrorism demonizing Islam

and Muslims to justify the invasion of Muslim countries is the   continuation of these conspiracies. The statement of    former head of the British armed forces who retired and was appointed as a defense advisor to Prime Minister David Cameron that the war in Afghanistan is a war on Islam confirms this General-Sir-Richard-Danna-001deeply entrenched   anti Muslim policy.

Speaking on the BBC Radio 4 program on 17 May 2010  about Britain’s continued occupation of Afghanistan, Gen (r) Sir Richard Dannatt said: “There is an Islamist agenda which if we don’t oppose and face it off in southern Afghanistan, or Afghanistan, or in South Asia, then frankly that influence will grow. We could see it moving from South Asia to the Middle East to North Africa and to the high water mark of the Islamic caliphate in the 14th, 15th Century. He explicitly said if Muslims adopted Islam’s political ideas and the Khilafah ruling system, this would be unacceptable and warranted a military response from Britain. He had no issues with Muslims praying or enacting spiritual rituals, provided they surrendered political life to Western values”.  

 

This is the deeply entrenched policy of the West towards Islam and Muslims. Now that the people have woken up it is unlikely that Middle East will be same playground for the West.
