Those meddling Americans

6 June 2004-Those meddling Americans
The same date 40 years ago played a pivotal role in the making of our history.Modern Europe would have had a different outlook had it not been for the intervening Americans. If Hitler had his way,things could have taken a turn for the worse.But today the scenario is entirely different.Iraq is no Europe and certainly Saddam is no Hitler.Yet those meddling Americans fail to believe so.In Washington DC,a large monument was constructed to revere the heroes of the Second World War and those of D-day especially.Took them a long time didn't it?Sixty years to felicitate the soldiers who died in large numbers?Ha!
Even now Mr.Bush disagrees that the entire Iraq episode turned out to be a fiasco.He is persistent,though but arent they all?American today has made a mockery of our history.Their capitalist economy has crippled many countries.In a recent report produced by the BBC I was not surprised to note that hybrid coffee beans that are being newly produced in the USA and GBR has been devastating the economies of the African countries who export coffee.And needless to say,the Americans are poking their noses into the governments of the same countries.How ironic!
And what about Israel-Palestine conflict?They made a so called 'Road-Map for Peace'.An extremely biased one,that.Israel feels that it is morally correct to bomb Palestine homes and incarcerate countless numbers of Palestine'militants' .What do the Americans do about it?Poke their stinking butts into the whole affair and do nothing about it.Almost nothing except for a certain Mr.Powell who would walk out of his furnished office in the WhiteHouse and make a desultory speech about the Road-Map and associated things.Israel is apparently razing Palestine settlements because they want to destroy 'tunnels used for smuugling arms from Egypt'.They found one but never really disclosed the details.Very similar to those non-existent WMDs.
America is has always been a nation that has wanted to be the fastest.But the answer to the questions of where it is going and what route it has been taking all these days have been baffling us...and those Americans too!If American Foreign Policies dont change then events like 9/11 and the Oklahoma Bombings will only become too common in the future.
