The signing of the Magna Carta.

Tyranny cannot coexist with freedom!

Friends, as the comments show, the initial reaction to my proposal have been encouraging and I am quite excited by what may follow.

So that we have something to hang our hats on as we discuss this proposal, I have come up with a quick list which will surely need many revisions but it is a start.

It may not be the Magna Carta but who would know where it might lead?

DRAFT  CHARTER.

We, the Members of the democratic Anti-American Empire Movement, will, peacefully and to the best of our ability,  work together and try:

1. To stop the further progression of the militaristic American Empire which is a purely selfish entity, one that threatens to bring about a Big Brother world where inequality and endless war reign.

2. To work peacefully to bring the American Empire down before it leads us further into a dangerous arms race, nuclear war, and probable extinction.

3. To use protests, sanctions, marches, boycotts, political pressure, etc, to bring awareness to the world of the dangers of rampant American nationalism and its delusions of grandeur.

4. To expose the  shortcomings of capitalism and greed which the American Empire is built upon, shortcomings which result in economic inequality and injustice for the majority of the world’s people and ultra-wealth for the elitist few.

5. To work to bring down the American Arms Industry and others which fuel endless wars.

DO YOU WANT SICK PEOPLE WHO DO THESE THINGS TO CONTROL YOUR WORLD?

Friends, the citizens of Egypt are doing what they can to break the iron-grip of Mubarak. America sits in the background urging gradual change and transition ‘NOW‘ (surely a contradiction), but the bottom-line is that it does nothing substantial. It just talks the talk!

Meanwhile pro-Mubarak elements, which are probably made up of armed policemen in plain clothes, continue to attack the protesters and many deaths and thousands of injuries have occurred, the exact number of which is unknown. Meanwhile, the Army, supposedly on side with the protesters, sits on its hands and allows the carnage to continue.

The U.S. could stop Mubarak and the Army in its tracks if it wanted to by stopping the 1.3 billion dollars it sends annually. But that would involve Walking the Walk, wouldn’t it?

So as the world and the U.S. procrastinate and delay, people are dying on the streets of Cairo and Alexandria and Suez, bit by bit, Mubarak gains the upper hand using terrorist tactics.

The self-appointed Leader of the Free World, America, is a fraud. It is allowing Mubarak to regain control so that it can retain its grip on the whole of the Middle East and all that oil.

Friends, I have included a link to a NGO which shows that Israel has sent three plane loads of crowd control systems to Mubarak. These systems probably involved gases of various kinds and potency.

This, combined with the attacks by pro-Mubarak flunkies on the protesters in Tahir Square, suggest to me that forces who don’t want any change in Egypt are joining together to prevent the deposing of Mubarak from occurring.

Who are these forces, you ask? The Forces are the U.S., Israel, Mubarak and his henchmen and, behind the scenes, the Egyptian Army which doesn’t want to lose its 1.3 billion dollar armament gift from the Americans each year, the same Army that recently told the protesters to, ‘Go home’.

And I just received an email from Bruce who reports that Blair described Mubarak as “Immensely courageous and a force for good.” So perhaps we can add Britain to the Mubarak Forces as well. And in Europe, there are other nations whose oligarchs are watching the decline of the Egyptian share market with alarm and wish the demonstrators would just disappear so their shares will recover!

The situation in Egypt is clearly showing how the world is largely being run by America and its reprehensible allies and Obama’s urging of  ‘peaceful transition’ is code for ‘let’s get rid of the protesters and hasten slowly, give Mubarak a chance to organize things with a little help from his friends’.

Friends, I am so sickened by what I see, words almost fail me.

This is Mubarak wearing his true colors!

This is what Mubarak, with American help, did to his own people:

bashing, arrest, torture, then indefinite imprisonment!

Friends, the U.S. has been exposed as an immoral, manipulative, imperial power. Why, you ask?

For 30 years it has supported a dictator, Mubarak, who, as dictators go, was even more cruel and brutal than most. And why? Because Mubarak, in exchange for 1.3 billion dollars for arms, supported Israel or at least said he did. So for 30 years the Egyptian people have suffered, nearly 80 million of them, pawns in America’s  imperial game.

Now that the people of Egypt have finally revolted against the oppression, America, the nation that stands for freedom and democracy (when it suits them), is making encouraging noises to the Egyptian people while, behind the scenes, it is trying to manipulate the situation so that a Mubarak-lite government can be formed which means that little or nothing will change.

Why is it doing this? Well, with Jordan and Saudi Arabia, etc, run by American supported dictators of one kind or another, the people there might get similar ideas and, before you know it, American influence in the region will diminish or even cease to exist and Israel may well be treated as it deserves: with contempt.

America has cared nothing for the suffering of the people from all these M.E. nations for all these years. All it cares about is wielding and increasing its power as it tries to gain control of the world. There is no level to which it will not sink in order to achieve this goal. If the little people starve or are tortured or killed, well, who cares? Not the Americans!

Is the outcome of the Egyptian revolution being decided in Washington?

This ex-American Ambassador to Egypt is now in Cairo.

He looks more like a stand-over man than a statesman.

Egypt should frog-march him to the airport ASAP!

Friends, the U.S., following thirty years of supporting the brutal dictator, Mubarak, is now in a difficult position. It is being forced to make noises about wanting to support democracy while being keenly aware of what happened when the Palestinians had democratic elections and Hamas came to power.

Of course, as you know, the U.S. and Israel didn’t approve of Hamas and so they sabotaged the election outcome and got into bed with the PLO and Abbas, the election losers and collaborators. The outcome of that has been the dividing of the Palestinian people and, as recent revelations have shown us, the complete sabotaging of the Palestinian cause.

In Egypt, the U.S. gives over a billion dollars each year to the Egyptian army who appear to be the power-brokers in the current situation. It is the army that will decide whether the revolution leads to an outcome that mirrors the aspirations of the Egyptian people or whether it will be nothing more than a watered down version of Mubarak, Mubarak-lite so to speak.

But it is also the army that probably doesn’t want to put in jeopardy the 1.3 billion dollars each year which gives it the latest in military technology and equipment. Boys and their toys are not easily separated, are they?

Behind the scenes, you can imagine frantic American officials having secret meetings with Egyptian Army Generals and reminding  them of the outcome that America would prefer: that is another Government that will toe the American line and vow to love Israel forever!
