"me no big chief …

but we first learn to differentiate between friend and foe.

In the present day world order, it is a dangerous game.
But there is one chilling underlying truth.
America is nobody’s friend.

If America extends hand in friendship, accept it today, pay with your lives tomorrow.

To many Indians,
who are itching to sign on the dotted line of the 123 Indo-US Agreement,
and blaming the communists for disrupting our chance at becoming America’s friend,

I say think again.

America is in debt, the Chinese are the loan sharks.
America needs to buy mercenaries to wage a war with China.
And who best than their age old enemy, the nuclear capable Indians.
Give them more nuclear fuel, let them destroy China
and themselves in the process.

With one signature, America will remove the threat of two emerging superpowers.
So sign today,
be prepared to fight America’s proxy war against the Chinese tomorrow.
But there is one certainty; for us, there will be no day after tomorrow.
Forget we will ever be one of the leading nations in future.

Melodrama? Look at Afghanistan.

On a day we see President Musharraff, “America’s ally” in their “War against Terror”,
fighting for his life, let us look at this document.
Who is responsible for this so called terror?

Title/Description: How Jimmy Carter and I Started the Mujahideen:

Interview with Zbginiew Brzezinksi
Author/Source:
Interview of Zbigniew Brzezinski Le Nouvel Observateur (France)
Date: Jan 15-21, 1998, p. 76*

This is a SHORT interview with Zbginiew Brzezinksi, Jimmy Carter’s National Security Advisor, in a French newspaper in 1998. Under Brzezniski and Carter, the US supported the covert funding of the mujahadeen, the Taliban’s precedessor, and also, to a lesser degree, Osama bin Laden.

Everyone now knows that — but what is amazing about this interview is that:

1) Brzezinski now admits that the US started funding the mujahadeen a full six months before the Soviets invaded Afghanistan (the previous justification for funding the mujahadeen was that it was to stop the Soviets AFTER they had invaded Afghanistan);

2) The explicit purpose of funding the mujahadeen was to draw the Soviets into Afghanistan so that they would get bogged down in a long, unwinnable war — “their Vietnam”;

3) Brzezinski believes that funding the mujahadeen — even at the price of unleashing Islamic fundamentalism (“some stirred-up Moslems”) as a force throughout the Middle East and Central Asia — was well worth the price of defeating the Soviet Union. Of course, he said all this a full three years before the World Trade Center attack.

Now, as we give $100 million to the Northern Alliance to topple the Taliban, we might want to think about who our new found friends are in the war against terrorism because they most assuredly will be our future enemies. All this makes George Orwell’s vision in 1984 look like a pleasant fantasy.

How Jimmy Carter and I Started the Mujahideen

Interview of Zbigniew Brzezinski Le Nouvel Observateur (France),

Jan 15-21, 1998, p. 76*

Q: The former director of the CIA, Robert Gates, stated in his memoirs [“From the Shadows”], that American intelligence services began to aid the Mujahadeen in Afghanistan 6 months before the Soviet intervention. In this period you were the national security adviser to President Carter. You therefore played a role in this affair. Is that correct?

Brzezinski: Yes. According to the official version of history, CIA aid to the Mujahadeen began during 1980, that is to say, after the Soviet army invaded Afghanistan, 24 Dec 1979. But the reality, secretly guarded until now, is completely otherwise: Indeed, it was July 3, 1979 that President Carter signed the first directive for secret aid to the opponents of the pro-Soviet regime in Kabul. And that very day, I wrote a note to the president in which I explained to him that in my opinion this aid was going to induce a Soviet military intervention.

Q: Despite this risk, you were an advocate of this covert action. But perhaps you yourself desired this Soviet entry into war and looked to provoke it?

Brzezinski: It isn’t quite that. We didn’t push the Russians to intervene, but we knowingly increased the probability that they would.

Q: When the Soviets justified their intervention by asserting that they intended to fight against a secret involvement of the United States in Afghanistan, people didn’t believe them. However, there was a basis of truth. You don’t regret anything today?

Brzezinski: Regret what? That secret operation was an excellent idea. It had the effect of drawing the Russians into the Afghan trap and you want me to regret it? The day that the Soviets officially crossed the border, I wrote to President Carter: We now have the opportunity of giving to the USSR its Vietnam war. Indeed, for almost 10 years, Moscow had to carry on a war unsupportable by the government, a conflict that brought about the demoralization and finally the breakup of the Soviet empire.

Q: And neither do you regret having supported the Islamic [integrisme], having given arms and advice to future terrorists?

Brzezinski: What is most important to the history of the world? The Taliban or the collapse of the Soviet empire? Some stirred-up Moslems or the liberation of Central Europe and the end of the cold war?

Q: Some stirred-up Moslems? But it has been said and repeated: Islamic fundamentalism represents a world menace today.

Brzezinski: Nonsense! It is said that the West had a global policy in regard to Islam. That is stupid. There isn’t a global Islam. Look at Islam in a rational manner and without demagoguery or emotion. It is the leading religion of the world with 1.5 billion followers. But what is there in common among Saudi Arabian fundamentalism, moderate Morocco, Pakistan militarism, Egyptian pro-Western or Central Asian secularism? Nothing more than what unites the Christian countries.

When the nuclear dust settles be prepared to see the back of America, as
“without any regrets” they leave us to die in a radioactive India we help create.
The blood of our mutated future generations will be on our hands, so help me god.

Melodrama? Look at President Musharraff.

It has all happened before, so many have fallen for the American carrot
yet we are rushing forward, blind with our eyes wide open.
