Islamic Iran today, in what has surprised many “analysts” made a move to release the 15 British Navy personelle that had accidently trespassed onto Iranian territorial waters just under two weeks ago on March 23, 2007.
Now while some of these so-called “analysts” and “intellectuals” might say this is a massive about turn, this is not the case, Islamic Iran was making a number of points and providing a lesson in ethics to the various “super-” and “pseudo-” powers of the world. A lesson in respect, tolerance, dignity and ethics.
If I can, I would like to try to explain this.
The situation in the Persian Gulf region, since the time that the Bush Administration decided that the Gas pipeline investment project (otherwise known as the Afghan War) wasn’t bearing enough fruit, and that a new campaign had to be enacted, and so when examining which places to invade and colonize, George W Jr, decided that he’d give daddy - George W Snr., a gift by invading - and decimating - the country that had been the bane of G W Snr’s life - namely Saddam’s Iraq.
With this in mind, he got his buddies - Colin Powel, Donny Rumsfeld (an old buddy of Saddam) and other such folks to get together for a late night barbeque at the new home George Jnr had found himself inhabiting - at the expense of the good people of America - where they decided what tricks they’d play on the “international community” (conveniently located in New York - but hey who’s looking!), what lies they’d generate and what theses they’d steal off the internet to justify their claims.
Once the plan was in place, a concerted campaign of demonisation commenced. Iraq is terrible, poor little Iraqi people are so oppressed, they need to be given “democracy”, they need their “freedom”, they need this dictator (notice dictator is not in quotes - cuz Saddam was a worthless lowlife dictator - just like the guy planning the war on him, but anyway) to be removed, they need to stop him from using his “weapons of mass distruction” (in reality more like Weapons of Mass Distraction!! or rather Weapons of Mass Disappearance - since no-once can find them - even today!), and so on and so forth.
Now Islamic Iran is watching this situation and naturally realising that it is getting surrounded. Bush Jr is a bit of a trigger happy guy, who likes shooting his guns left right and center - he’s thinks he’s a Texas Ranger (Walker, Texas Ranger, even!!), and naturally Iran doesn’t like the sort of jibberish that Bush comes out with, his policy of befriending and supporting the Iranian run-a-ways who base themselves out of Los Angeles and other parts of America, and parts of Europe, etc. Perhaps I’ll do a post on the psyche of these Iranian Run-a-ways at some stage, but not now.
Iran is surrounded, you have a puppet government run by ex-Haliburton staff in Afghanistan, with a fair few American and “Allied” troops waltzing over it in their vain attempt to find the mythologically elusive Mr Bin Laden (he’s another crackpot and we’ll discuss him at a later stage, but like the Iranian Run-a-ways now is not the time for that).
You can see how surrounded Iran is, simply by looking at the map to the right, you can see that Islamic Iran is surrounded on all sides, by a very hostile (though admittedly somewhat over stretched) group of fellows - not really the American Forces, since sadly they do little for America except waste a truckload of dollars, but more a Bush Militia, that heads every call of Bush the Junior and his buddies (the ones who were at the barbeque - except a few who’s fallen out of favour with Junior by “not playing with him the games he wanted to play as he wanted to play them”!!!).
Pakistan, Afghanistan, Turkmanistan, Azerbaijaan, Georgia, Turkey, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, the Gulf States. It’s kinda like a playground, where the everyone has ganged up on this one guy who really just wants to get on with doing what he’s doing and who isn’t giving anyone a hard time, but is being picked on.
Now naturally Iran will be a little on edge. You then have the IAEA and the UNSC and other four letter acronyms making all manner of “sanctions” on an already sanction ridden country - a country that was attacked by an American+Gulf States+British sponsered Saddam’s Iraq in 1980 for decided that they wanted a particular form of government, and who were then - even after the ceasefire in 1988, who were forced to endure sanctions and boycotts of many natures just because their style of government was considered backward by the “intellegencia” (or thick idiots to be more accurate) who advised the powers of the time (yeah yeah I mean the “super-” and “pseudo-” powers).
On top of that, after the tragic attacks of September 11, 2001 allegedly by Mr Bin Laden and Co (we’ll discuss him at length another time), attacks that Islamic Iran immediately condemned since such attacks are against Islam and Humanity. Such filthy and ugly acts can only be comitted by the most filthy and barbaric people and are conjoured up in the most evil and ugly minds (perhaps the same mind that can use things like Agent Orange, Sarin, Napalm, Depleted Uranian “Bunker Busters” or drop the only Nuclear Bombs ever dropped, hmm, I wonder?!).
Islamic Iran condemned the attacks of September 11, 2001 vehemently, and explained the Islamic position on such barbarism. But lo and behold, Bush the Junior, decided that Iran was evil, just because he felt like it - or was it because it had more Oil than Texas and the Texas Ranger wants to get his grubby paws on it?
Anyways, I digress.
Islamic Iran is surrounded. It monitors it’s territorial waters very carefully as it should - the Bush Militia are itching to take out Islamic Iran and hand over the Oil to Bush Oil Co Inc (or whatever it masquerades as today - Haliburton perhaps or is it ExxonMobile or Texaco, eh who cares it’s all the same thing!!). The same was as the Bush Militia protected what was previous known as the Iraqi Ministry of Oil (see picture to the left) while they let riots and looting take place all over the rest of Iraq - efffectively rendering the country dysfunctional and impossible to govern.
Naturally Iran is concerned. Iran also has this issue where it wants to use Nuclear energy, which is it’s right, under every law, and everyone is making the unfounded assumption that Islamic Iran wants to make a nuclear bomb. With respect to those who think that, Israel - a far more volitile Middle Eastern player IS a nuclear power, it HAS used nuclear bombs (well depleted Uranian bunker busters - but they are just as bad - see: http://www.bushflash.com/pl_lo.html and for more information see: http://www.cadu.org.uk/ and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depleted_uranium has a right to have both Nuclear Energy as well as Nuclear Weapons, what is the problem with Islamic Iran having Nuclear Energy, when Iran has catagorically stated, and Islamically stated even by the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatullah Khamenei(HA) that Nuclear bombs are an abomination and not permissible under Islamic Law. (See: http://www.khamenei.ir/EN/News/detail.jsp?id=20050321B and various other references).
Now Iran is getting lots of threats from Bush the Junior, and Bush has a new best friend, Blair the Confused, who whenever Bush the Junior says jump, asks how high and proceeds to jump around profusely making himself look like a complete moron and going against the wishes of the good people of Britain, who don’t want a war, but want to get on with their lives with their family and loved ones around them like normal people.
Naturally, this scenario is an uncomfortable one for anyone, imagine you live in a street, where your neighbors used to be okay guys who didn’t give you a hard time, but now you see that everyone around you, to your left and right, in front of you and behind you are all looking at your with malice and hatred, and want to see you ejected from your home, your ancestral home even. How would it make you feel? At the very least a little nervous, anyone who says otherwise is either a pathological liar or plain dumb, fact.
Now you get some of these soldiers (or navy personel in the case) from the group of guys that want you out of the neighborhood, coming very close - even trespassing on your turf, naturally you’re going to ask them to accompany you and question them, and ask them to appologise, this is perfectly natural. There is nothing machevallien about it - it’s normal, plain normal self-preservation.
Go back to the scenario of you in the street where all your neighbors are hostile, one of their people throws something over your back yard and it gets stuck on your fence, they climb over to get it back, and you capture them, invite them into your home, treat them with respect, and show them how you really are - a decent normal person - why would you do this? Perhaps if these guys learn that you’re no threat to them, they will stop giving you such a hard time. Perhaps they’ll give you information on your cousin who went missing as he crossed the road to get the newspaper on Sunday, perhaps they will realise that their fears and concerns about you are misconcienved and that you’re actually a pretty regular person, who means no-one any harm.
On taking the navy personel, Iran gets some crazy statements flung at them by Blair, very confrontational, and then thankfully Mrs Beckett, Blair’s foriegn minister, advises the moron that shouting and screaming the odds is probably not the best idea - just like breaking the windows and causing a racket is not the best idea in our street scenario. Instead a simple phone call (the number’s in the phone book I’m sure!), and a chat, followed by an admission that we should have been messing in your back yard or back fence, will do far more to resolve the scenario and provide a sensible and friendly ending.
This is what has happened. While Blair hasn’t appologised, the navy boys and girl who were arrested - and mind they were treated with respect and dignity, without any harm coming to a single hair on their bodies - fact - not like the lovely treatment people get from the Bush Militia in Guantanamo (an occupied part of the independent Republic of Cuba in fact - who else has bases and does things on occupied land - could it be an ally of the Bush Regime? No never - oh yeah - Israel! another comonality!! But that’s for another day and another entry) and in Abu Ghrayb in what is now Occupied Iraq and also in places like Ansar 1 and other concentration camps run by Israel for Palestinian and Lebonese “terrorists” (men, women and children including farmers and peasents old and young).
Islamic Iran accorded the Islamic treatment and respect to the 15 navy personel. Looked after them, and the only reason their release was delayed - and this clearly mentioned by Doctor Ahmadinejad(HA) in his press conference on Wednesday where he announced that they were to be release as a gift to the British people for the event of Easter and also for the event of the birth of Prophet Muhammad(S).
Islamic Iran didn’t humiliate them, they were asked to expalin themselves and they did, coherently and without any duress or stress being exerted on them. Some say that the “Embassy told them to act like that” and other such jibberish, but this is because they don’t want to realise and accept that Islamic Iran is a country that has a government that is a government of love, of respect and dignity, of true independence and true reliance on ethical and Godly values.
Anyways, this is importnat to realise, there will be more entries, in the many differnet catagories in my blog. I don’t alway talk in defense of Iran and on political matters, but sometimes things need to be said.
Everyone have a good night, and tomorrow is another day.
Warm Regards,
