Images of Terrorism

Id like you all to look at two videos here, many of them most of you have probably seen over and over again, yet many have failed to make the connection, and to take a deeper look at just what exactly they are seeing.

Now this whole war in Iraq and Afghanistan, was started by one act of terror, many people claim it was arab muslims, others say it was the government, it really matters not, it was an act of terror by terrorists.

Im sure weve all seen the footage all too well...

911 attacks

Now, in response to this, our government, went into the Middle East, and started waging a campaign of war (even though Iraq had nothing to do with 911, the government admits that, but thats another story for another time).

Here is a 10 minute clip of the first air strikes on Baghdad in 2003, what the Bush Administration appropriately named "shock and awe". Watch the video, and see what happens.

Shock and Awe

I want people to watch both videos very closely.

HOW CAN ONE WATCH BOTH VIDEOS, AND NOT SAY THAT BOTH VIDEOS DEPICT ACTS OF TERROR!

You see, the 911 attacks, thats "terrorism"

Shock and Awe? That is "fighting terrorism".

911 attacks are EVIL!

Shock and Awe is "fighting for peace and freedom!"

THEY ARE BOTH FRICKEN TERRORISM, AND ITS ABOUT TIME WE REALIZED IT!

The Bush Administration and the American troops, are engaging in terrorism on the Iraqi people, and need to be tried for crimes against humanity. Yes, I went there...

When it comes right down to it, throwing bombs at people is terrorism. It inspires terror and it's done as an act of coercion. It's even more insidious if you take into account the possibility that 911 was an inside job.

Neo-cons claim self-defense. Individually people compete for resources and the same goes for nations. Although our current economic system has created individuals (in the form of corporate personhood) wealthier and more powerful than any nation.

It's easy to imagine that all these conflicts are reflections of somebody's personal interest in wealth, than national security. Some people profited on 911 and somebody is profiting from the military industrial complex.

War is terrorism. There really is enough food to feed everyone now. The disparities in wealth are growing, not shrinking. Hunger is terrorism.

Terrible circumstances either bring out the worst or best in people. One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter, or murder is killing without a license. Wars are won in the hearts and minds....freed or controlled.
Too bad the people don't seem to benefit from whoever is at the helm.
