HARPER: “WE CAN'T WIN IN AFGHANISTAN”


So why in hell are we there?!?!?!

THIS is what they tell the public we are doing in Afghanistan.
Nothing could be further from the truth.


THIS is the REALITY of what CANADIAN 
and AMERICAN troops are doing in Afghanistan. 
And she is one of the "lucky" ones!

Why has Stephen Harper assigned OUR CANADIAN troops 
to be part of this terrorist activity?

must be refreshed with the blood of tyrants. ~ Thomas Jefferson)


Jaweed and his bride-to-be Adedoja just before their marriage. He is perhaps thinking of those who cannot celebrate this rare happy event: his mother and father blown up by NATO last year, his 2 brothers and uncles killed a few weeks before by the Americans, his godson who stepped on a landmine just a week ago. 

 Less than an hour later, 40 of the wedding party were dead,
including the bride and groom, and many hospitalized.
 
Why is CANADA involved in this hell upon earth 
that enemies of all that is good 
are inflicting upon the indigenous population?


Everyone, every single Canadian and American, should be questioning our government representatives about this and not settle for the usual tripe and BS we are sold by the media.

EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US, needs to be aware of these things and, if the party line given is unsatisfactory, tell our individual representatives that, come election, we will use our vote to bring about change ~ and their being voted out is part of that change.

ANYTHING LESS IS COMPLICITY IN THE CRIMES BEING COMMITTED BY OUR “LEADERS” FOR THEIR CORPORATE MASTERS. THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH FREEDOM OR DEMOCRACY. NOTHING!
2010 was the bloodiest year of the now nine-year conflict in Afghanistan and the tribal border regions of Pakistan. Under the command of Gen David Petraeus, a massively expanded US and Nato force is waging a campaign of extermination against various ethnic Pashtun and Taliban-linked movements that have not accepted the foreign invasion of their country.
.

Still justified with threadbare rhetoric about fighting terrorism,
the occupation is in fact a neo-colonial and criminal enterprise
on the grandest scale.

Its motive is to crush resistance and transform Afghanistan
into a US client state in the oil and gas-rich Central Asian region ~
just as they have to Iraq. And hope to do to Pakistan.

It is part of a geopolitical struggle for dominance over territory
and lucrative resources, both in Afghanistan itself
and in surrounding states,
against US rivals such as China, Russia and Iran.
.
Enlarge this thumb and see what is really the plan here.

Obama had made the so-called “AfPak War” a cornerstone of his administration’s foreign policy. Since he took office in January 2009, American troop numbers in Afghanistan have been doubled to close to 100,000.

Thousands of additional troops have also been sent by various Nato states, pushing the overall US-led International Security Assistance Force (Isaf) to more than 150,000. By contrast, the Soviet force that occupied the country in the 1980s never exceeded 110,000.

What if her life was that of your own child?

The escalation of the war led to unprecedented violence and brutality in 2010. Thousands of US marines were sent into major offensives against Taliban strongholds in southern Afghanistan. In areas of Kandahar province, entire villages were razed to the ground, ostensibly to remove insurgent booby-traps.

Kandahar itself, a city of 500,000,
was turned into a maze of concrete blast walls and checkpoints.

Residents are subjected to constant intimidation,
searches and biometric eye scans.

Supplementing the offensives,
there was a major intensification in US airstrikes.

In October, over 1,000 missions were flown
compared with 640 the year before.

Every several days, Isaf is issuing a new press release
hailing the slaughter from the air of another group of alleged insurgents.
.


PNAC and Afghanistan
.
Special forces death squads,
tasked with assassinating or detaining alleged insurgents,
have increased their operations by 600 per cent under Obama.

The US military claimed that between mid-September and mid-December alone, such squads carried out 1,785 raids, killed or captured 880 “insurgent leaders”, killed a further 384 rank-and-file fighters and captured another 2,361 alleged insurgents.

The statistics only convey something of the reign of terror that such a scale of Special Forces’ operations represents.

Villagers across Taliban-held areas of Afghanistan live in daily fear that their family will be the next targeted.

Homes are smashed into in the dead of night,
women and children bailed up with guns
and the men blindfolded, bound and dragged away.
If any resistance is shown, deadly force is used.

They say a cliche is a cliche because it is true.

IF YOU ARE NOT FURIOUS ABOUT THESE THINGS, 
YOU HAVE NOT BEEN PAYING ATTENTION.
