The West achieved the first thing when it pitted Iraq against Iran. Then it attacked Iraq directly in the first Gulf war and destroyed a nation. However, it did not stop here. It later attacked Afghanistan, a land of truly free people, and destroyed it. Then it again attacked Iraq and started to kill its people while it gained complete control of the Iraqi oil. While all of this was going on, the West, on the other hand, went on covertly supporting those people who were oppressing and crushing Muslims elsewhere in the world. So we see that in Bosnia the Serbs were given a free hand to kill tens of thousands of Muslims.
In 1994 Serbs overran the so-called UN safe zones of Srebrenica, Zepa and Bilac killing thousands of Mulsims while the UN soldiers merely watched on. Such type of incidents where the Western controlled UN force did nothing to stop the massacre of Muslims became a common scene in Bosnia. But the duplicity of West doesn’t stop here. In Chechnya, Clinton supported Russia with state of the art military aid. In 1996 his Govt. supplied Russia with sophisticated electronic targeting devices with which Russia killed Chechan President, Dzokhar Dudayev, while he was conducting peace talks with Moscow on his cell phone. It was Clinton who gave Russia the go ahead to launch offensive against Chechnya in 1999.
However, the plan of the Western world to oppress and crush the Muslims is most visible in the case of Palestine, a land that Israel has illegally occupied since 1948. Israel is killing the Palestinians on a large-scale everyday because the Palestinians have the guts to stand up against the illegal occupation of their country. The West is happy that Israel is killing the Muslims mercilessly in Palestine.
Western help to Israel for accelerating the killing of Muslims is clearly visible. Israel with a population of less than six million people is the largest aid receiver of the U.S. From 1949 to 1998 Israel has received a total of 85 billion dollars as aid and loan from the United States of America. Late George Ball, Under Secretary of State in the Kennedy Administration, had estimated the cost of Israel to U.S. at 11 billion dollars per year (This includes aid plus interest cost for U.S to borrow that aid for Israel). And more than that sophisticated military equipment like Apache helicopters are given to the Israelites for finishing off the Muslim Palestinians. And whenever the Muslims raise their voice against such atrocities they are labeled as terrorists and supporters of terrorism.
The media comes in handy for this purpose. It shouts at the top of its voice that Muslims are terrorists (and hence must be eliminated). The media, however, does not say that in reality the West has designs of setting up a global hegemony – a hegemony before which everybody in this world must submit. It also does not say that since Muslims are not ready to submit before the West that’s why they are targeted everywhere and labeled as terrorists.
The second thing that the West wants to achieve is stopping the fast growth of Islam. Now only denouncing and criticizing Islam won’t do. Practicing Muslims the world over are a source of inspiration for other people to accept Islam. So the West decided that the future Muslim generations must be kept far away from the teachings of Islam, as Lord Macualy had realized for the Muslims of the British India (It was against this backdrop that Dar-ul-uloom Deoband was established in 1867). This would achieve two results. First these future generations of Muslims would be in no position to influence others to accept Islam and hence the spread of Islam would automatically get checked. Second these future generations would easily submit to the West and its “world order”.
To achieve this the West realized that its first target should be madrasas- the Muslim religious schools. So the media has been geared up to label these madrasas as “breeding grounds of terrorism”. The media controllers being rabid Islam haters are doing a good job in this regard. Even the Indian media is not behind the others to accomplish this. Outlook in its latest issue (Aug 15,2005) has run a story on British Muslim schools (which are no madrasas in the traditional sense). It labels innocent, small school children who attend them to learn Quran as “products that terrorist groups are likely to search for recruits, given their religious and political grounding.” Such is the way the West aided by the ugly media is attacking the beautiful religion of Islam for its nefarious designs.
The West (U.S. and its cohorts) in their quest to control the resources of the world will stop at nothing but the submission of the whole world towards a Western world order which is nothing but Western hegemony. Muslims are terrorists because they won’t submit towards the Western hegemony. A hegemony that the West wants to establish on the basis of lies and falsehood.
In their hearts is a disease, and Allah increaseth their disease. A painful doom is theirs because they lie. (Holy Quran 2:10)
