Interrupted On Air; Man Speaks Truth On Iraq/London attack

[TecK NeeX]

While Christiane Amanpour is discussing the London terror attacks a man passing by breaks in and speaks truth to the camera. The man screams "tell the truth about what happened" and then screams "They're in Iraq, that’s why it happened. There were 50 killed in Iraq".

Christiane Amanpour is a true journalist and responded calmly and professionally to the situation. Kudos to the man for trying to get his voice heard on international TV!

What was he talking about? Did the US kill 50 Iraqis in Iraq and this is retalliation?

 

[not really ken]

Jack Straw was on newsnight the other day and was talking a load of shit

Interviewer: Do you think the risk for these attacks has increased since the Iraq war?
Jack Straw: No, that's preposterous! Let me tell the British people something, it is absurd to say that the risk has gone up. I mean 9/11 happened before Afghanistan.
I:But what about Spain then? The terroristssaid that ws in direct retaliation to Iraq.
JS:err, pe, ne,tsk,teech, hopfg *knocked back* the world is a more dangerous place.
lol, whatt he hell is that supposed to mean. He dodged the question outright and was just shouting rallying calls.

I'm glad he tried because I've seen alot of press about how UK is defiant and how they're more determined to be in the war but I'm sure there are a lot who want to leave.

Peace.

What the guy meant was Britain being in Iraq illegaly is what really killed the 50+ Londoners in London

Thank god this man was able to get that out on the air. Finally, the truth. What a revelation. How could everyone have missed that connection? I believe this was a wake-up call for the American and British people.

Your quoting of a senseless and frankely idiotic comment to advance your agenda is asinine. Terrorists bombed London because the United Kingdom is a close ally of the United States in the fight against terror NOT because they're in Iraq. This is simply used as justification by the people such as yourself when in fact the two are very much seperate. When Al-Qaeda bombed US embassies in Tanzania or Kenya was there any military occupation to justify it? Or the attack on the USS Cole? Or 9/11? These attacks were designed to scare civilians and attack the western way of life in order to help further Al-Qaeda's set of twisted theocratic goals, simple as that.

i think he was being sarcastic

NOT because they're in Iraq.

Yes it is

No they're not

LOL this is clear proof of your idiocy, Show me one shred of evidence where Osama bin laden or any Al-Qaeda operative for that matter where they claimed their objective behind those attacks you mentioned was to instill fear upon civilians. This is a fabricated motive to justify invading Arab nations. Osama Bin Laden has repeatedly voiced his motive behind such attacks on numerous occasions and absolutely none mentioned any hate for freedom or to scare civilians.

many Americans wondered why 9/11 happened. The Bush administration was quick to feed the public the idea Osama bin Laden had attacked because of his hatred of American freedoms and his goal to scare Americans. It seems clear that you are among the many victims of this form of brainwashing. This accusation does not stand up to facts that have been ignored or forgotten by the mainstream media.

You and many other Americans continue to ignore Osama's reasons for attacking America.



In the Oct. 7, 2001 tape: Osama stated how Americans could stop terrorism against the United States: "Neither America nor the people who live in it will dream of security before we live it here in Palestine and not before the dozens of American military bases leave the land of Muhammad." These American military bases occupied and continue to occupy more than half of all Arab nations long before any attack on Americans.

American withdrawl of all its military bases occupying Arab land would for a fact put an end to terrorism. This theory can be tested by looking back at how Osama responded to the withdrawal of Russian troops from Afghanistan after their war. Osama hated the Russians. He carried out some of the most heinous attacks against them, but when the Russians withdrew, Osama stopped all attacks against them. It wasn't that Osama so much hated Russians or Russian ideals, he simply hated the fact the Russians were occupying their land and killing them. The same is true with America if they destroy all their military bases from many arab nations occupying them for decades.

The reason America is in the Middle East in the first place isn't a big surprise; America wants their oil. American foreign policy since the 40s has been to maintain control over Middle Eastern oil and to make sure no indigenous people have any real control over it. As stated by former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, "Oil is much too important a commodity to be left in the hands of Arabs." One might hope America has nobler intentions than stealing Middle Eastern oil, but White House officials have, on certain occasions, admitted the obvious. In a 1990 Time magazine article, an advisor to former President George H. Bush explained why America had intervened in the first Gulf War, saying, "Even a dolt understands the principle - we need the oil." As long as American citizens allow American terrorism to continue in the name of oil, we cannot expect peace. We have the power and the duty to stop the illegitimate war being carried out in our name. By stopping America's occupation of the Middle East, American citizens can show they don't believe all the oil in the world is worth one drop of blood.

"scare civilians"

Where did I claim that scaring civilians was the object of those attacks? I asked where was the military occupation to justfiy them. Who's the victim of brainwashing here? The person who believes Osama Bin Laden is a warrior fighting for freedom or the person who believes he's a fanatical murderer who will kill any and all to achieve his twisted goals? Put away your anti-Americanism for a minute and look at the facts.

He has killed and continues to kill innocent civilians, in fact this is very much part of his agenda.

In 1996 he launched war on the U.S., it's civilians and Jews. Therefore these attacks are very much in keeping with his expressed methods.

His confidant Ayman Al-Zawahiri is suspected of helping organize the 1997 massacre of 67 foreign tourists in the Egyptian town of Luxor and was indicted in connection with the bombing of U.S. embassies in Tanzania and Kenya.

I can go on.

Bin Laden and his organization are fanatical extremists bent on destroying western influence in the Middle East and slaughtering any and all to do so.
