In the garb of free speech!

Ali Ashraf Khan

Tuesday, September 18, 2012 - The Islamic world is up in arms against the US in protest against another blasphemous act initiated on the 11th anniversary of so-called 9/11 with a specific agenda: a film posted on you tube maligning the prophet of Islam (PBUH) and Islam, the Holy Qur’an and Islam itself. This is not the first time the West has tried this. It started with the infamous book ‘satanic verses’ by Salman Rushdie a British author of Indian descent who owns much of his ill-fame to this book which was depicting the prophet of Islam in an outrageous manner that caused the protest of the Islamic world as early as the eighties. More recently we had the incident of the cartoons depicting again the prophet of Islam as a terrorist. This cartoon had to be published for a second time because its publication for the first time in a Danish newspaper did not create the wished upheaval. But after its second publication the wrath of the Pakistani Muslims resulted in the burning down of the Mall in Lahore. We then had more anti-Islamic films of a Dutch and other European origin and now we have this latest provocation against Islam.

The death of US ambassador in Bin Ghazi reminds me of Pakistan’s President Ziaul Haq’s plane crash in which US ambassador to Pakistan was killed with another American and one fails to understand how and why no proper investigations were finalized by US government that Bin Ghazi incident is being probed to link it with Islamists to achieve their hidden agenda. After the fall of the Soviet Union and the ‘second world’ the West lead by the US was in need of a new enemy to justify the enduring existence of large armies and weapons production and an organization like NATO, which has now been turned into a watchdog of the world under US umbrella. The globalization of the capitalist economy which was succeeding in monopolizing the international markets and aiming especially at the monopolization of the energy market as an efficient instrument of control of access to the world market and of the world market itself for those in whose hands this instrument would be.

The world Jewry in its US-Israel connection is aiming to get hold of this instrument to control world economy and world market since the nineteen eighties. We have seen a first Iraq war against Iran, we have seen an Iraq war after the Kuwait crisis we have seen a third Iraq war under the pretense of weapons of mass destruction. We have, and are still seeing the war in Afghanistan and how the West is losing it. And we see the cases of what was called ‘Arab spring’ in Egypt, Tunisia, Libya and Syria where the West has been and is still propping up political opposition with arms, ammunition and training and the support of mercenaries to substitute the same dictatorial regimes which they had been installing and supporting years ago with a new ‘democracy’ not realizing that democracy will never succeed in the Arab or Islamic world. Democracy is the political system of capitalism and capitalism to prosper needs the replacement of the belief in God by the belief in money.

While our ‘leaders’, the Zardari, Musharraf and Bhuttos and Sharifs and others have sold their souls to money instead of God and are plundering the country and the nation mercilessly the majority of Pakistanis and of the Arab and other Muslim societies as well are believers in God. The West never understood that and is now surprised why the people of Benghazi who have been supposedly ‘liberated’ with the help of Western troops and weapons are now killing the US Ambassador!
