America and Political Hypocrisy
It is true that the world is governed by just one authority: America. It is also true that America has her influence, interests, her own particular agenda and national security. However, American public opinion has its own role and effect on the course of global political events, which is now moving at an accelerated pace and giving rise to the revolutions of the Arab Spring. These have rocked the citadels of the old Arab presidents, with three thrones having fallen to date.
Things have begun to change, and we have no idea what the political events will lead to because they have occurred in swift and sudden leaps. The Arab revolutions, which have been christened the “Arab Spring,” have all been led by ordinary young people who have been deprived of freedom, democracy and social justice; they are eager to see their country offer them the services, progress and prosperity found in Western countries, particularly America. They have made America their only way out from the deprivation in which they live and a symbol of liberation — of emancipation from their slavery!
In the midst of these revolutions and the Arab Spring, the tyranny of authorities and the killing of people they govern with an iron fist, many have forgotten that the American West has had a hand in these tragedies. America was the one that supported these tyrannical leaders even though overnight, she has transformed herself into the people’s savior. They have forgotten that America puts her security and interests above all else and that she looks on things differently when it comes to her interests and national security. So while America gives legitimacy to the Arab revolutions in their revolutionary spring, she denies it to the Kurdish revolutionaries. She describes them as insurgents, rebels and terrorists.
Not only did America give the green light for Turkish Turanians to bomb and eliminate the Kurdish rebels according to her own plan, she also showed support to the Turkish regime and provided the material, moral and logistical facilities to eliminate the terrorist Kurdish rebels. Global satellite networks reported the gravity of the offense committed by the Turkish gendarmes with their bombing of populated border villages. We saw how Turanian military aircraft and helicopters carried out a strike against a Kurdish civilian’s car, killing seven members of one family and leaving torn and charred body parts inside the wreckage of the car.
Faisal al-Dabbagh, the press secretary for the president of the Kurdistan region, told Kurdistan’s AKANEWS, “The United States of America gave Turkey permission to bomb the border areas of the region.” White House spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said in her latest statement yesterday, Wednesday, Aug. 24, “Ankara has the right to defend itself against fighters from the Kurdistan Workers’ Party and has the right to preserve the security of its border regions adjacent to Iraq; but we are prepared to help Turkey with this objective.”*
This was a clear statement of direct American intervention in support of the Turkish army and gendarmerie in their effort to eliminate the Kurdish people in Turkey. According to this statement, which is not devoid of gall and is blatant intervention by the American Yankees in the internal affairs of Iraq, it is all up to al-Maliki’s government: It is incumbent on the local government to submit a complaint to the United Nations and to condemn the American intervention in addition to checking this rampant Turkish tyranny.
Above all else, we, as institutions of civil society and the Kurdish community abroad, must condemn America’s blatant intervention, her decision to stand beside this Turkish tyranny and encourage its terrorist plans to kill the Kurdish people of Turkey. We must also address the American people through their civil society organizations — which influence decision-making in America — to ask for the withdrawal of American support for the terrorist Turkish Turanian regime.
