"Civilians have paid and continue to pay the bulk of the bill for the conflict between the U.S. and organizations that were established under its auspices, chief among them the new Taliban ... Yet
despite this, there are still some among us who trust the Americans!"
Since the election of
President Barack Obama, who began his reign with a "historic" speech
from Cairo University directed at the Arab and Islamic worlds, what has changed
about American policy in the region?
In Palestine, much of the
plan to Judaize Jerusalem has been accomplished and
settlement activity has continued under the pretext of "natural
expansion." Moreover, the blockade of Gaza continued in order to starve
and subjugate our people there. In another context, the Zionist regime
continued to detain 11,000 Palestinian prisoners, among whom are children,
women as well as representatives elected by the people.

That's the situation as far
as Palestine is concerned. But there remain other Arab and Islamic countries
like Iraq where the situation hasn't improved, and that we can say without
misgivings, suffer from the "state-terror" practiced by America. In
some countries like Afghanistan, the situation has grown worse, so that
civilians have paid and continue to pay the bulk of the bill for the conflict
between the U.S. and organizations that were established under American
auspices, chief among them the new Taliban.
In the new era of Obama, America
is entering yet another Islamic country (Pakistan) under the pretense of
fighting terrorism. Having gone so far as violating the very sovereignty of
Pakistan, with American aircraft repeatedly targeting a branch of the Taliban
in Pakistan, there has been an outbreak of violence that is nearly a civil war,
with all of the subsequent humanitarian disasters that come from that!
Yet despite all this, there
are still some among us who trust the Americans and endorse their words!
