...and quite short for a Fisk article - one wonders if it's been filleted - as it stands the article describes little more than a tit for tat scenario. You might argue too that the US is shown in this instance to be retaliating: The death of an American in Baghdad on Friday and the riots outside the US embassy scarcely justify American attacks on this scale And what on earth is this 'but now it’s getting personal' nonsense? No, it's not 'personal' - even when Dubya was saying of Saddam H, 'he tried to kill my daddy', it wasn't 'personal' - no matter whom the personnel involved may be it's not 'personal'; it remains the same old game of maintaining 'war' in the interests of the few whom are so desirous of wealth, power and influence that they would risk the destruction of life on Earth as we know it. Rather than harping on about dispatched CIA operatives in the the ME in the 80s, Fisk in this present article ought to have emphatically outlined the true nature of this latest exhibition of the Empire's lunacy. |
