| Rosecroix spewed,"[I] think it is nice how the morally superior israel and usa condemned all those massacres you speak of. alone they stood for freedom in a whole world of corrupt sceams by arabs and filthy europeans to destroy democarcy and all mankind? - what?? was that wrong? were they quiet too???? you don't say!"
He didn't say. And neither will I. If I may reinforce some of Swhitebull's arguments -
*Syrian forces massacre of 30,000-40,000 people at Hama on February 2nd 1982
-US reaction: The US State Department had placed Syria on its list of nations that sponsor international terrorism 3 years prior to this incident (1979) where it remains to this day. At the time the events of the Hama massacre became known to the world, the United States government issued strong condemnations of Syrian President Hafez Assad, in a vaccuum of virtual silence from the rest of the planet, notably excluding Canada, Great Britain, and Israel. Syrian backed Hezbollah terrorists killed over 250 US Marines in Beirut, Lebanon the following year (1983) with a suicide truck bombing on their barracks. The Marines were there as peacekeepers in a factional civil war which was in part against the illegal Syrian occupation of Lebanon that began in 1976 and continues to this day.
-European / World reaction: In September, 1982, the UN Security Council adopted Resolution 520 condemning the assassination of Lebanese President-elect Bashir Gemayel by Syrian agents and demanding that ALL non-Lebanese military forces depart from Lebanon. Israeli forces eventually departed Lebanon. Some 30,000 Syrian troops continue to illegally occupy Lebanon. Despite this obvious violation of a UN Security Council resolution and Syria's known backing of terrorist groups, Syria was both named to the UN Security Council a month after September 11th (October 2001) and presided over the council last month (August 2003) without protest from the international community. Syria has occupied Lebanon for over 25 years, yet Israel is condemned almost daily for "occupying" a country (Palestine) that has NEVER existed.
*Iraqi Arab massacres of 100,000 Kurds:(Swhitebull's numbers are actually low)
Between March 1987 and August 1988, Iraq made extensive use of chemical weapons against Kurdish villages as part of a campaign aimed at depopulating rural Kurdistan. Iraqi forces used mustard and nerve gases, as well as mass executions, to kill some 100,000 Kurds in the genocidal 1988 Anfal campaign. The commander, Gen. Ali Hassan al-Majid, said of the Kurds, in a taped speech obtained by Human Rights Watch: "I will kill them all with chemical weapons! Who is going to say anything? The international community?" Well, he (Chemical Ali) was mostly right...
-US reaction: Although there was some initial confusion over blame for the deaths of Kurds by poison gas attack during the Iran-Iraq War (Iran and Iraq used chemical weapons against each other), the use of chemical weapons on the Kurds by Iraq AFTER the Iran-Iraq War is both well-established and undeniable. In any case, one may easily find records of the United States condemning both Iraq and Iran for using chemical weapons.
-European / world reaction: What reaction?
*Sudanese Muslims slaughter of more than 500,000 non- Muslims in the Sudan (Swhitebull, update your numbers!)
The Sudan is a hot spot in the Islamic jihad against civilization, with a running total of 2 million dead and over 5 million displaced refugees over the last 20 years of ethnic fighting between government Muslims and rebel Christians and animists.
-US reaction: The United States has been strongly involved in trying to negotiate a peace in the Sudan for the past 20 years, and over the past decade or so has annually supplied several hundred millions of dollars of humanitarian assistance to the Sudanese people, comprising the largest international humanitarian relief effort in WORLD HISTORY.
-European / world reaction: What reaction?
*Egyptian gassing of Yemeni - 1963-1967
During the Yemen War of 1963 through 1967, Egypt evidently used mustard bombs in support of South Yemen against royalist troops in North Yemen. Nasser's adventure in Yemen in 1963 on the side of a military coup began when the Egyptian army fought the Saudi Arabian backed royalist Yemeni tribes was the first time the Egyptian Army fights against Arabs since Ibrahim Pasha campaign against the Wahhabbie rebels in Arabia in the 1820's. The use of chemical weapons against the Yemeni tribesmen was the first use of chemical weapons in the Middle East. During the Yemeni civil war phosgene and mustard aerial bombs killed at least 1,400 people. Some reports claim that Egypt also used an organophosphate nerve agent against Yemeni Royalist forces.
-US reaction: The US and Britain were alone among Western governments that condemned Egyptian interference (incitement, really) of the Yemeni Civil War, while Egypt enjoyed the backing of the Sovie |
