Propellerhead Reason 3
U.S.
More than five million dollars has claimed the war in Iraq, which has killed thousands of civilians and soldiers. Civilians have resisted the invasion and purpose of the great economic and military powers to seize the oil of that country remains frustrated. Raimundo Kabchi internationalists and Luis Quintana analyze the situation in that country, five years invasion.

A war that was planned for about 21 days has been extended for five years. The death toll varies according to the organization that disclosed. Iraq Body Count and The Lancet are the most published figures. Lancet
firm in its latest report indicates that 600 000 civilians have died, 400 U.S. soldiers and 170 thousand British soldiers. Meanwhile, Iraq Body Count said that civilian deaths are between 82 thousand and 152 thousand.
For its part, the World Health Organization (WHO) reveals dramatic details about the general situation of the Iraqis. In 2006 the WHO was concerned in a report which describes the following situation: a daily average of 100 people were killed and many more seriously injured as a result of gunshots, shrapnel and burns. "
That same report states that 80% of the population having access to effective sanitation, 40% of people can not enjoy the public distribution system for food. Diarrhoea and acute respiratory infections, exacerbated by high levels of malnutrition, are the cause of death for two-thirds of children under 5 years.
WHO cites figures from the Office of the High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), which indicate that about 2 million Iraqis are displaced internally and up to 2 million left the country. The displaced have moved to neighboring countries, complicating the health situation in the region.
preventive war: the excuse to invade
After September 11, 2001, when there was the attack on the "Twin Towers", the U.S. government launched a security strategy called preventive war. This is a military strike against a target (country or group of countries) considered threats. Of a possible attack or an imminent invasion, real or not, power attacks first. This occurred in Iraq ruled by Saddam Hussein.
After the September 11, Iraq, Iran and North Korea became part of what the U.S. called the "axis of evil", was how Iraq was a threat to its neighbors and for humanity in general .
Before the supposed nuclear weapons development by the government of Iraq, the powers sought to revive UN inspections of its nuclear program is country.
On November 8, 2002 the Security Council issued resolution 1441 which demands that the Iraqi government to fully respect the terms of the resolution and to cooperate immediately, unconditionally and actively with the inspection process. Saddam Hussein
accepted without conditions as requested by the resolution. Han Blix, chairman of the Commission of the United Nations Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission (UNMOVIC), said in a report by March 9, 2003 that "the statement repeats the information that no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and that there is no evidence to present. "
UN reports were not accepted, President George Bush argued that his government had evidence of chemical and biological weapons, which were obtained through the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). The then President of Spain Jose Maria Aznar and British Prime Minister Tony Blair, supported him in his decision to disarm Iraq by military means.
On March 17, 2003 give an ultimatum to Hussein 48 hours to leave the country with his family, Saddam refused and the Security Council withdrew the inspectors. The March 20 bombing started.
Energy resources are the reason for the war
The internationalist Luis Quintana said that the real objective of the invasion of Iraq was to seize its vast oil reserves. "U.S. imperial expansion project at the global level, has provided the usurpation of strategic natural resources of countries, under this concept program for the entire decade of the nineties, military intervention, economic and cultural policy permanently. "
The administration of President George Bush has acknowledged that all premises who argued for invading Iraq were and still are false. Months before the attacks, the government with support from the media created a favorable public opinion, based on the strategy of panic. Quintana said that "this policy remains, but war costs in terms of human lives and financial terms are not yet effective as 60 percent of the population is against the continuance of the troops in Iraq. "
internationalist Counsel Raymond Quintana Chabchi match saying that" before the oil shortage becomes more severe the need for the rule to control the world's reserves. "
also states that "weapons of mass destruction were a story, they are saying the latest reports emanating from the relevant U.S. authorities. They also determined that Saddam had no connection with Al Qaeda ", he said.
Kabchi, who is knowledgeable about Middle Eastern issues, he recalled that the U.S. have indeed had close relationship with Osama Bin Lademan, leader of al Qaeda. "The U.S. made a great leader Bin Lademan as a role model for young Muslims to fight against the Iranian revolution. This man then was active in a group known as the Mudjahidin, and served the American interests in the war in Afghanistan during the Soviet occupation of that country. " According
Kabchi "where there is a country with oil is a problem, and behind the problem is U.S. For one example: Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, Indonesia, Algeria, Libya, Nigeria and, why not say, Venezuela."
The war failed to
When resistance to coalition countries are collapsed the main arguments for the invasion, justified the continuance of the war saying that Hussein was a dictator and had to free the Iraqi people from the tyranny of the regime. They also pledged to give better life to citizens, and finally promised to rebuild the country shattered by missiles and tanks.
Quintana says the failure of the invasion are several reasons but the main one being the Iraqis rejected any form of taxation. "The idea of \u200b\u200bfreedom and democracy behind the neoconservative discourse is a democracy that only adapts to the circumstances of the USA, and can not be projected on an idea of \u200b\u200buniversal value because that democracy has a cultural context related to its development as a power. You can not expect universal idea of \u200b\u200bdemocracy that is also quite narrow and has a liberal. For a people like the Iraqi, who has a history and a different culture, you can not impose overnight the scheme of social and political organization that has nothing to do with them. "
For its part, Raimundo Kabchi asserts that the Iraqis have promised a democratic life "I wonder, under the boots of the invader can be no democracy?, democracy is not just going one day to cast a ballot in a box. You have freedom in the broad conception of the word. And there is no democracy. " Quintana
resistance described as armed and cultural Iraqis "are reluctant to impose power consumption patterns, production and social and political organization that looks nothing like them. Iraqi resistance should be taken as a benchmark of what they are capable of doing the people. "
"The project of controlling the reserves, production and export of crude oil has been effective precisely because they have control over security, a demonstration is which has increased the number of troops, because they have been gradually losing control, their objectives have been or will be met, "said Quintana.
Investment in the U.S. war
the war began sending 158 000 troops, Britain 4 000 100, Georgia 2 000, Poland 900, South Korea 600, Australia 550, Romania 498, El Salvador 380 and Denmark 100 . Also had all the sophisticated weapons such as: 800 M1 Abrams tanks, fighter aircraft like the Jaguar and Harrier, warships, helicopters and AH-64 Apache AH-20 Cobra, aircraft carrier Constellation, Harry S. Truman, A. Lincoln and T. Roosevelt among others.
In five years the investment was $ 526 million, according to figures released by the U.S. Congress. U.S.
does what he wants with the multilateral system
According to Raimundo Kabchi internationalist "the UN is a ministry over the United States and succumb like the League of Nations, will be a ministry for more than U.S. cabinet. "
For his part, Luis Quintana added that the Security Council did not stop the war despite that handles information from non-existence of weapons of mass destruction. "The United States has used the UN, historically, as a lever to promote sus intereses geopolíticos en el mundo”.
A juicio de este especialista, la ONU quedó radicalmente marginada de la posibilidad de interceder por la soberanía de Irak. “El Consejo de Seguridad fue burlado y Estados Unidos demostró que hace con los sistemas multilaterales lo que le da la gana, y solamente acuden a ellos cuando saben que pueden tener la pelea ganada, como por ejemplo las sanciones a Irán”.
Los medios de comunicación hacen el juego al imperio
“Solo una revolución de carácter mundial puede detener a Estados Unidos, puede parar el proyecto imperial y transnacional que va más allá de las fronteras de EEUU porque está presente en Europa and other hegemonic centers of power. "
So says the internationalist Luis Quintana, who also quoted Noam Shomsky in his thesis that the strength of public opinion can stop this expansion project, "but beyond this requires a political mobilization that emerges from all spaces at the global level, and can move the invisibility of which have been subjected by the hegemonic media. "
Quintana alleged that the big media companies are just talking about American soldiers killed in war, and do not report the deaths of Iraqi civilians that majority. Ensures that people are dying both military attacks, as by hunger and lack of basic services needed to sustain life. "We are talking about exterminating a population by means of the economic, lack of basic services and by way of permanent military intervention."
Raimundo Kabchi also discussed the role of media in war, "only speak of the dead Americans, and say they have destroyed the historical and cultural vestiges of a people and that people are going through a difficult situation economic. Each time they refer to the dead Iraqis say they are terrorists associated with Hezbollah, Al Qaeda, Hamas or Taliban, "he said.
Any country that has oil is a possible target
internationalist Luis Quintana Both as lawyer and international analyst Raimundo Kabchi, agree that the attacks received by the government of President Hugo Chávez and the Bolivarian Revolution have to do with interests of U.S. energy resources by both Venezuela and South America.
Quintana says oil has historically been under the control of U.S. and for some time now and it is not, "have passed into the hands of the sovereign people of Venezuela and that has implications for U.S. policy in the region. " Besides Venezuela, Bolivia and Ecuador also advance its policy of nationalization of strategic energy resources, according to Quintana's reading has been given this, from the State Department is that the Bolivarian revolution is a hazard.
"When the leading U.S. government officials: Thomas Shannon, Condoleezza Rice and George Bush openly alleged links to have the government of Venezuela to terrorist groups, which supposedly gives them weapons, they do so in order to pave the way and justify an invasion. "

To Aznar, the war was a good investment. He returned to the White House in 2004 and went converted into power broker and speaker of four stars. A real intellectual, "says the text.
Therefore, even knowing that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and that there was no connection with Al Qaeda, Aznar I would do the same, he concludes.

It general, he said, the multinationals seeking to challenge the jurisdiction of the authorities of each nation and come with their arguments in international arbitration mechanisms.
On this occasion, said the specialist, Petroleos de Venezuela (PDVSA) presented their defense in an institution outside the nation for the purposes of Exxon Mobil to achieve the freeze of assets of about 12 billion dollars.
In such a scenario, based on standards other than the Venezuelan law, the corporation stated its position so convincingly that led to an opinion consistent with the sovereign aspirations, added Silva.
In this regard, said the British court's decision was sound and clear, which excludes the possibility of other interpretations.
Now the case will be discussed under the proposed arbitration, without any pressure and looking for compensation according to the actual operations performed at the former Exxon Mobil Cerro Project Black (current Petromonagas).
However, the U.S. company must respond in damages to PDVSA and the country in the field of demand, which was reflected in legal fees, damages to the price of Venezuelan bonds and various financial indicators.

The resignation of Admiral William Fallon took place months after his highly publicized comments that the continued support from Washington against Iran conflict is not helpful and not useful. These comments were recently reissued in an Esquire magazine profile that described Fallon as the only person able to stop a U.S. attack on Iran.

I said, the current embarrassing situation, public perception of differences between my views and policies of government and that creates distraction from the mission make this right. I approved Admiral Fallon's request to retire with regret and reluctance.
Fallon's resignation is seen by some as a sign of a growing threat to Iran. Fallon is also known that clashed with General David Petraeus on the number of U.S. troops in Iraq.

qualify Protesters Rice a war criminal at the sitting of the House of Representatives While
both on Capitol Hill, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice made a mild criticism of the ongoing construction of Israeli settlements. Rice spoke before an appropriations subcommittee of the House of Representatives, where he said the recent announcement that Israel will build hundreds of new homes in the Occupied Territories is inconsistent and unhelpful.
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, said the United States believes that settlement expansion is contrary to Israel's obligations under the Roadmap and leave that very clear. I also said that it is certainly not helpful to the peace process. I can assure you that we are following this issue closely to ensure that U.S. dollars are not being used to support activities related to the settlements.

Bush vetoes congressional ban on torture
President Bush vetoed a Congressional measure that would have banned the CIA from using interrogation techniques considered by many forms of torture.

In his weekly radio address, Bush said the ban of these techniques would harm national security.
President Bush said: The fact that we were not attacked during the past six and half years is no accident. It is the result of good policies and the determined efforts of individuals carrying them out. We owe our thanks to these guys, and we owe them the skills they need to do their jobs effectively. Our greatest responsibility is to stop terrorist attacks. And this is no time for Congress to abandon techniques that have a proven track record of keeping America safe.
Democrats and human rights groups strongly criticized the veto. Democrats House of Representatives say they tried to construct a new vote next week. Pentagon revises

Legalities Regarding Head Stones
Americas
Since early 2008, have intensified the resistance and alternative constructions of neoliberalism in Latin ours. From Mexico, Venezuela and even Argentina, embrace of solidarity with Cuba, the manifestations of desire and will to change are manifold. There are multiple subjects and multiple identities, all converge primarily around the joint construction of another America, Our America, rooted in their own realities, cultures and interests. Common is the conviction that the future nests elsewhere in ourselves, away from the imperial project that has been exporting from Washington or from Brussels.

I've said time and again, we face a scenario of break with the legacy operating chains of colonialism. Neoliberalism was ultimately a response to the processes that were popular among the sixties and seventies, subverting the order foreign to our interests. Neo-liberalism was the political and economic response to the rebellious insurgents who lived at the time, was the political and economic component of the counterinsurgency strategy that was deployed from Washington. And the bet was extended by a new imperial order, pacified with blood and fire, which was intended to enact the history of class struggle and liberation struggles.
However, to his surprise, the story refused to die and slowly bore everywhere new players of a plurality of struggles, committed to self-determination of the circumstances outside the new neoliberal order, ie, reconstruction from themselves and their indigenous realities of their individual lifestyles, social and political.
However, the neoliberal reaction was immediate. And is that the war is integral to its purpose. Already been demonstrated, for example, in the late seventies in Chile, Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil. For neoliberalism, there is no difference between war and politics. War is the continuation of politics by other means and, in turn, politics becomes war by other means, sometimes silent or low-intensity, sometimes open and high intensity, whatever. The purpose of this permanent war is defense of the neoliberal order. Precisely for this reason, accepting that the history of class struggle has no end, has no end this war. This is how our societies are conceived in a permanent order of battle and war becomes the main source for the articulation and reproduction of the neoliberal order. This requires, to be effective, the criminalization of all forms of resistance and contestation, by the continued use of coercion and violence against women. It also requires a capacity for preventive reaction against the bulbs most emblematic of the challenge to imperial control system is intended to implement.
From this perspective, democracy and the rule of law (especially human rights guarantees and constitutional) barriers that stand neoliberal order needs siding. Instead, it seeks to impose a state of emergency, national and international level, where the material effectiveness of the actions of the Empire becomes the new criterion for the validity or legitimacy. Increasingly it is plunging us into what has been described as "a true legal civil war "between the rule and people. The power law is also a battlefield.
This permanent war we intend to impose the Empire has, in our America, a staunch ally, Colombian President Alvaro Uribe. His most recent adventures warmongers, the violent and illegally invade Ecuador to quell the guerrilla insurgency of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), sought to impose on the region this new strategic framework promoted by the government of George W. Bush. Faced with the principle of territorial inviolability of the sovereignty of nation states, Bush and Uribe attempted to impose a new standard, intervention proactive or unilateral invasion of third countries according to the security interests of the invading country or receiver.
However, the shot met them both for the stock. Uribe's unilateral action only received approval from Washington, while the rest of the international community, particularly Latin America, collectively condemned the Colombian aggression on the sovereignty of Ecuador. Even the Organization of American States (OAS) had found Colombia responsible for the violation of Ecuadorian sovereignty, which was to reaffirm "the principle that the territory of a state is inviolable and can not be subject military occupation or of other measures of force taken by another state, directly or indirectly, any grounds whatsoever, even temporarily. "
Then, in the XX Rio Group Summit held in Santo Domingo, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez was responsible for taking the initiative to stop the dangerous proliferation of a series of diplomatic reprisals and accusations. "The conflict spills, you see the threat this poses to peace, to region," he said.
And he explained: "It is time for reflection and action, we have time to stop a whirlpool which we could repent, not just us but our people, children and communities, we do not know for how long. " He lamented that after this conflict is the U.S. government and the warmongering of the Empire. " "There is an interest rate of wing warmongering U.S. government that does not end this war in Colombia."
"Let us find the path to peace, let us leave the possibility of more war" was the resounding call the Venezuelan president, which was accepted unanimously. Uribe, cornered, he had no alternative but to ask forgiveness and make a commitment not to ever again assault a brother country.
However, beyond the intentions diplomatically expressed at the summit in Santo Domingo, is still to be seen whether Uribe reconsiders in their feast desire to hinder the development of a process of diplomatic negotiations and in policy to immediately proceed with the release of hostages held by FARC and release of prisoners of war and political relations between the Colombian government. If there is anything that showed the current crisis was precisely Uribe's stubbornness preventing the successful mediation of Chavez, especially fearing that acceptance of the proposal made by the Venezuelan president for recognizing the FARC as a belligerent force in order to facilitate and ensure a climate and framework for more reliability and security for future contacts and negotiations. In their stupidity, Uribe has led to increased international pressure for a political solution to the ongoing conflict in war that exists in Colombia for decades.
Washington's claim to impose the war as the only way of doing politics in the current situation in Latin America, has failed so far. Uribe is the instrument to impose the framework of permanent war throughout the region, and disqualification as "terrorists" all those who fight against their imperial pretensions. Latin American Summit in Santo Domingo emphatically denied both. Rejected warmongering venture into the maelstrom a la que le convida Bush y Uribe.
Además, en medio de la crisis, salió a relucir que detrás de las perspectivas geoestratégicas de Wáshington está, entre otras cosas, su interés en las reservas petroleras de la zona. Precisamente, la reducción paulatina de sus propias reservas, así como la disminución constante de la producción petrolera mexicana, le presenta a Estados Unidos el imperativo de reasegurar el abastecimiento del petróleo venezolano. Así, por ejemplo, lo ha advertido recientemente la compañía petrolera angloholandesa Shell. Y esta realidad se le torna más apremiante ante la entrada de la economía estadounidense en una recesión y en que la incertidumbre en Venezuela supplies around in nothing helps to stop the current spiraling oil prices and provide political guarantees to the capital market needs to meet your expectations.
Finally, we can not ignore this logic underestimated and less harmful. Hence, if what it is to open the way to the path of peace, at the same time we take the word in its favor, we must also go to the firm action. Today, word and action are inextricably linked as never before in this ongoing battle order in which we now inhabit. Even the words are trenches from which struggled to give it another meaning to things, away from the vortex's war Empire.

Clearly, the Peruvian government is recovering from ongoing national protests and these are only the most notorious expression of a serious and growing social and political crisis. Endless
have become the legitimate and natural mobilizations as a result of the neoliberal government excluding García, as dogmatic as late in the continent.
Essentially, it is that the right-wing bloc in the government (fujimontesinistas, the leadership of Alan Garcia's APRA and the traditional right direction in that order) have not been a good time to convince most people that neoliberal formula is successful, or even that it is the only possible.

In other words, it has come to impose the truism that Garcia's arrival in government presidential elections a year and half ago was very weak.
Almost half the electorate (about 48%) voted explicitly, through the candidacy of Ollanta Humala, an anti-neoliberal project, and recasting Bolivarian democracy (and that without a low but still significant disorientation of the left called traditional voting no).
Half obtained by Garcia, however, was weak in two ways, first because half of them were provided by the right and second because its half, the APRA, was based on deception, offering a similar program to Humala several essential points, who, one and a half, has been completely and violently betrayed.
Clearly, la apuesta fue: “podemos, a buen tiempo, y con el poder del gobierno y los medios de comunicación de la derecha, imponer una exitosa profundización neoliberal, haciendo pasajera la demanda anti neoliberal y de refundación democrática, arrinconando en la impotencia a la candidatura que la representó”.
La primera parte funcionó; del “matrimonio por conveniencia y de emergencia” la cúpula alanista y las derechas pasaron al “amor verdadero”, se volvieron un bloque estable y su programa ideológico fue por completo el de las segundas. Conjuntamente, todas las lacras políticas peruanas, infiltradas en el movimiento de Humala, hicieron estallar parte de su bancada congresal and its credibility.
The second part, of course, did not work, at least not far enough. It did not matter a disciplined monologue of government, its media and mass media, now turned into undisguised ideological propaganda machine and political oligarchy. For more than cynical and unseemly to repeat that pushes and enforces the deepening neoliberal dependent "because that was the most voted program," the reality of a year and a half has become stubbornly to prevail, even to the point that their own party, the APRA and its historic hinterland show serious signs of disappointment, crisis and opposition.
Lima, one city, whose 3 million voters decided the election (not without fraud, to pass to Garcia to second round), without and against the rest of the provinces, where Ollanta won comfortably, is the latest "strength" of the neoliberal oligarchy and the powers given to foreigners. There, under the repressive delirium risky Garcia, entercan fiercely in implementing the program exclusion, inequality and social protest inevitable generator. Delirium repressive
And the government and right-wing bloc no longer had to go into despair. It is a restless convalescence, full of bad omens, cracks and contradictions.
response, García commitment to forward flight. His character is betrayed once again. In fatal attraction known as the death penalty, so far unsuccessful, said its orders in a hurry and desperate, dubious legal technical consistency, to criminalize social protest and even the mere opposition of legitimate regional authorities.
Among the most "innovative" ways to advance the state decrees and excluding independent judicial inquiry "to blame" the damage that the police and the army made to people with their arms in protest situations regulation or violent strikes.
precursor A single case of "law of impunity" in advance, whose significance is comparable, in her modern era, only the creative institutional initiative of the German Nazis. Another
universal contribution is the consideration of state authorities (especially regional presidents) participating in social protests and strikes as "extortionists" subject to criminal sanction. Both measures, plus others of similar nature, contained in Qualifying and defy orders speak for themselves.
The result, dozens of deaths so far this year and a half in office, all in the midst of legitimate citizen demonstrations of discontent. Everyone
CCB
Now, in a final icing on the cake, made seven illegally detaining citizens in Peru, returning from an international political event in Quito, Ecuador: the Second Bolivarian Congress, which brings together leftist organizations radical for more than twenty countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. According to the official, attending this event is "proof" of terrorism. That is, takes the already famous and discredited policy of persecution of ideas of Pinochet in Chile and Fujimori in Peru.
In delirium, the government Garcia goes over the objective fact that the event done publicly and openly, under the auspices of a legitimate, democratic government, and that no other country involved carried on any action against its citizens in attendance.
Can there be a most evident and most incontestable of the unbearable loneliness of delirium García repressive in the region? Did not know that by this means, implicitly and unequivocally, is accused of "complicity" of the alleged terror to all other governments in the region?
Nobody should be fooled
Regardless of opinions and political differences that may or may not exist with this Bolivarian Congress, this is a move that caps a repressive madness that affects us all, not only Peru, but in Latin America and the Caribbean as a whole.
is at stake, not only the freedom of these citizens illegally detained and charged ridiculously but of all of us, as citizens with rights. Starting with the basic right of opposition, to think without fear, without being reduced to the quality of frightened servant, submitted by the fear of arbitrary punishment.
In this regard, urgent, ethical, critical, life or death, WE ARE ALL CCB.
The strength of the ethics
At this point, one may say in letters, all that the government may have going for them is the inability of opposition forces to support national convergence, broad, generous, overcoming petty and personal interests, group, sector or regional, to unsustainable weak dependent scaffold and impose neoliberal reestablishment of democracy and economic redistribution that require structural crisis.
words can only save it, as happened with Toledo, the smallness and inability of their opponents. It senses the actual Garcia when asked about the disastrous last survey, replied that it was "a very good result compared to Toledo ...." Let's be fair, what other thing can already say?
Will they charge and assume their responsibilities both old and new leaders of the opposition? That remains to be seen.
But all citizens can and must do their part, keep the basic and minimal right to humanity, to ideas, to the opposition. Everyone is facing the crossroads of being cut by fear or be enforced in law. This is essentially an ethical issue, rather than political.
It plays in Peru to bequeath to our children brought back to the dark days of the medieval Inquisition or open to the horizons build freer, human, fairer, more inclusive.
We will make the difference.
