Call To Jihad
Syria Satellite TV, Damascus, Syria - 11/14/2006 -
<ANCHOR:> Outgoing US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld is facing charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity, regardless of where and when they were committed.
<REPORTER:>One who is not familiar with the hawk may try to roast it. Let me rephrase the saying. Anyone who is acting like a hawk will eventually be cooked. The aforementioned saying can easily be applied to one of the most harmful hawks of the US administration, Donald Rumsfeld.
Rumsfeld, who was an American hawk not long ago, was recently stripped of his title, and his claws were clipped. Some believe that Rumsfeld was a scapegoat, who was being sacrificed to exonerate his master’s sins at the White House. His day finally came. The hawk lost his wings, so he could no hurt any more victims, especially those locked up birds in the cages of Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib.
After their victory in the midterm elections, regaining control of Congress, the Democrats started capitalizing on the political downfall of their Republican counterparts. Rumsfeld was one of the first big hawks to fall, and others may soon fall as well. Nevertheless, some still believe that Rumsfeld was made the scapegoat, so that others can go free.
Who are the others? Let me give you a hint. Some have played roles in Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib prison scandals. If the walls of Abu Ghraib could talk, they would tell us a real tale from the crypt. The victims were subjected to an elaborate scheme of torture and humiliation in the name of Democracy. Who will heal the wounds and redeem the souls of those sexually assaulted in the name of a free world? History will judge the united States of America and it’s allies for their crimes against humanity in Iraq Afghanistan, and elsewhere. What is next? The killer hawk is still at large. He may not be flying anymore, but he is free. Who will bring him to justice?
Civil rights activists filed a lawsuit Tuesday, asking German prosecutors to open a war crimes investigation of Rumsfeld for his alleged role in allowing torture to take place at US prisons in Iraq and Guantanamo Bay Cuba.”
“The US Administration has been known for deserting it’s fallen hawks, regardless of how big they were. Rumsfeld, or “Don” as Bush used to call him, was one of Bush’s favorite aides, and he was given more latitude than other White House staff. However, he has recently become the punching bag for Washington’s politicians. As he leaves the White House, he leaves unhappy memories behind.”
