To all Americans read this and even other nationals maybe you understand why terrorism is in Usa?

Question

The destruction of the world trade centre and the attack on the pentagon has been described as the greatest act of terrorism.
However history demonstrates that the most horrific acts of Terrorism has been carried out by the freedom loving democratic nation, the United States of America . According to their own Official FBI definition of terrorism: “Terrorism is the unlawful use of force or violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives.”

IRAQ :
From 1991 to the present day the United States Air Force and Navy have slaughtered over 200,000 civilian people in Iraq with Depleted Uranium missiles, cluster bombs, cruise missiles and other so-called “smart bombs.”

During the “Desert Storm” terror campaign the arsenal also included fuel-air bombs and napalm.

177 million pounds of bombs were dropped on the people of Iraq in the most concentrated aerial bombardment in the history of the world. In the 110,000 sorties of the six-week onslaught the cowardly American and British pilots (and to a lesser extent French and Saudi pilots) mass-murdered at least 200,000 people, using depleted uranium missiles, napalm, cluster-bombs, fuel-air bombs, cruise missiles and other so-called “smart bombs.” The slaughter of civilian people in the Amariyah bomb shelter was a Prime example of this American/British state terrorism. Most of them were women, children, elderly, and invalids from a new housing development. Cowardly U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force jet pilots caught one sixty-mile-long column of fleeing Iraqi soldiers and Palestinian civilian families in vehicles on the Kuwait to Basra highway - and pounded them ruthlessly with bombs and machine-gun fire. The road, clogged by four lanes of one-way, bumper-to-bumper traffic, was carpet bombed by B-52s dropping 1,000-pound bombs, and repeatedly hit with laser-guided missiles and “smart” bombs. All the Iraqi soldiers, as well as Palestinian workers and their families, were slaughtered without mercy. The bloodthirsty American pilots gleefully described the massacre as “shooting in a sheep pen.”

During the Desert Storm terror campaign at least 944,000 rounds of Depleted Uranium ammo were fired from American A-10 Warthogs all over Iraq and Kuwait . When a depleted uranium tipped shell strikes a tank or armoured personnel carrier it easily penetrates the armour and burns the crew alive. The impact also vaporizes the depleted uranium, creating an aerosol of radioactive heavy-metal particles which can spread as far as 190 miles on the wind. When inhaled or ingested, the depleted uranium particles cause chemical and radioactive damage to the bronchial tree, kidneys, liver and bones. Cancer often results, and the effects can even include genetic damage.

The Dutch Laka Foundation estimates that the United States terror campaign left behind 300-800 tons of radioactive waste from this ammunition all over Kuwait and Iraq - poisoning the air, the land, the water and the people everywhere. Afterwards, wherever the depleted uranium firing had been concentrated, there were cancer epidemics among Iraqi civilians living nearby. In the ten years since then, sanctions, polluted water and depleted uranium together have killed somewhere between 1,000,000 and 2,000,000 Iraqi civilian people. At least 600,000 of the dead are children. Cancer rates have quadrupled in areas of southern Iraq bombed by the American and British state terrorists. Since it began, thousands of Iraqi babies have been born with horrible birth defects. This is something that has never before been seen in Iraq .

Over the course of only 43 days and nights, approximately 62,000-80,000 air-delivered cluster bombs were dropped on the Iraqi people by the American-led state terrorists. In addition, 10,000 MLRS rockets and 100,000 “Dual Purpose Improved Conventional Munition” artillery shells were fired. All this translates to about 24-30 million “sub munitions” or bomblets. Assuming a dud rate of 5%, it is estimated that the number of Dangerous land-mine cluster bomblets lying on or just under the surface of the ground in Iraq and Kuwait would be from 1.2 to 1.5 million. At least. In the desert, however, the percentage of these duds rose to 30%. So the number of unexploded ordnance still lying in wait for unsuspecting Iraqi children and civilian people could be as high as 7 to 9 million bomblets. A Human Rights Watch report says that of the estimated 24 to 30 million bomblets dropped during the Desert Storm terror campaign, the 1.2 to 1.5 million (at least) that did not immediately explode led to the bloody deaths of 1,220 Kuwaiti and 400 Iraqi people - mostly children - and over 2,500 maimed. And that was in just the first two years after the end of the “war.” So the American/British systematically targeted Iraq 's civilian infrastructure. Schools, hospitals, factories and every industry connected to food production, water purification and irrigation were targeted for destruction. U.S. Air Force and Navy pilots destroyed a baby formula plant, food warehouses, pharmaceutical plants, fertilizer plants, pesticide plants, storage facilities, refrigeration facilities, electrical generation and communication plants and every single grain silo in the country. All these were destroyed in order to intensify the impoverishing effect of the sanctions. In the process, U.S. and British pilots slaughtered at least 200,000 Iraqi men, women and children. And of course all these murdered human beings were dismissed by the Pentagon as “collateral damage.” In the 10 years since that carnage, the United Nations estimates that over one million Iraqi civilians – including 600,000 children below the age of five - have died as a result of American sanctions alone. One of the most important strategies of the 1991 terror-campaign against the civilian Iraqi people was the bombing of numerous water-purification plants. After that, the American sanctions prevented Iraqis from getting enough replacement parts to repair most of the plants.

So, just as the evil U.S. and British governments planned, the lack of clean drinking water in Iraq has caused a massive human catastrophe. It is contaminated water, more than anything else, that is killing Iraqi babies and small children, by the thousands, every month. Because they are the most vulnerable they are dying from diarrhea and dysentery primarily, and also diseases such as typhoid, hepatitis, cholera and polio - all caused by bacteria and viruses within the contaminated water. And just to make the whole diabolical scheme complete, the American sanctions also prevent the Iraqis from acquiring sufficient medicine to treat these deadly diseases. In an interview of Secretary of State Madeleine Albright on CBS's 60 Minutes, correspondent Lesley Stahl asked her if the death of these 600,000 Iraqi children was “worth it.” Albright's reply:

“...we think the price is worth it.” General Colin Powell when asked about the number of Iraqi people who were slaughtered by Americans in the 1991 “Desert Storm” terror campaign: “It's really not a number I'm terribly interested in.” “If they turn on the radars we're going to blow up their goddamn SAMs [surface-to-air missiles]. They know we own their country. We own their airspace... We dictate the way they live and talk.

And that's what's great about America right now. It's a good thing, especially when there's a lot of oil out there we need.” U.S. Brig. General William Looney Washington Post, August 30, 1999 - referring, in reality, to the brutal mass

• murder of hundreds of civilian Iraqi men, women and children during 10,000 sorties by American/British.

PALESTINE :

Since September 29, 2000 the Israeli Army, together with violent gangs of Israeli “settlers,” have launched a massive military assault on the Palestinian people. In this latest onslaught the Israelis have murdered over 600 people so far, including many children, and injured over 15,000, many severely Of these 15,000 people, over 1000 have sustained serious physical or neurological injuries requiring long-term health care. The Israelis have surrounded all Palestinian villages and blocked all exits, refusing to allow those with severe injuries to get medical help outside. Meanwhile the Israeli Army fires into the villages with missiles from Cobra helicopter gunships and with shells and heavy-gauge ammo from tanks.

Israeli invaders of the West Bank , who are given the misleading name of “settlers,” actually live in hilltop fortresses above many of the Palestinian villages. From these fortresses the “settlers” fire at will down on the unarmed Palestinian people below. In addition to murdering people, the Israeli military is extensively targeting infrastructure, with the intention of destroying the Palestinian economy. Under the guise of “retaliation,” “destroying sniper hiding places” or “protecting Israeli settlers,” Israeli helicopter gunships have fired missiles into Gaza TV studios, factories, office suites, police stations and administrative centers of the Palestinian Authority, destroying them all.

VIETNAM :
American Genocide of the Vietnamese People, 1945-1974 “I would like to say that several months ago in Detroit we had an investigation at which over 150 honorably discharged veterans testified to war crimes committed in Southeast Asia. They told stories that at times they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in a fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam, in addition to the normal ravage of war and the normal and very particular ravaging which is done by the applied bombing power of this country.”

John Kerry Navy lieutenant, leader of Vietnam Veterans Against the War in testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee 1971 During the Kennedy and Johnson administrations the number of murderous U.S. military personnel invading Vietnam jumped from 23,000 in 1963 to 184,000 in 1966. During 13 years of America's war against the people of Vietnam 8000,000 Tons of bombs (like Napalm and cluster bombs) and defoliants (Agent Orange) were dropped in total - and at least 3 MILLION Vietnamese people were slaughtered. During the Vietnam Genocide there was even an official CIA program of systematic terror, torture and mass-murder called Operation Phoenix.

CAMBODIA :
The direct American genocide of the Cambodian people lasted from 1969 to 1975. After that the Khmer Rouge, America 's covert clients, took over the job. Estimated civilian deaths:

2,000,000 - 2,500,000 people From the U.S. Air Force carpet
• bombing and the Khmer Rouge combined.

From Derailing Democracy by Dave McGowan:

Not content with the destruction being wrought upon Southeast Asia, the U.S. began a massive covert bombing campaign against Cambodia , resulting in famine, economic chaos, and a staggeringly high death toll. The desperate conditions created by the bombing set the stage for the Rise to power of the Khmer Rouge, resulting in yet another round of death and destruction for the besieged country.

>From Rogue State by William Blum:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^...

Cambodian Prince Sihanouk was yet another leader who did not fancy being an American client. After many years of hostility toward his regime, including assassination plots and the infamous Nixon/Kissinger secret “carpet bombings” of 1969-70, Washington finally overthrew Sihanouk in a coup in 1970.

This was all that was needed to impel Pol Pot and his Khmer Rouge forces to enter the fray. Five years later, they took power. But the years of American bombing had caused Cambodia 's traditional economy to vanish. The old Cambodia had been destroyed forever.

Incredibly, the Khmer Rouge were to inflict even greater misery upon this unhappy land. And to multiply the irony, the United States supported Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge after their subsequent defeat by the Vietnamese.

LAOS :
The United States Air Force dropped the equivalent of a planeload of bombs every eight minutes for nine years on the people of Laos, from 1965 to 1973 - over 2,000,000 tons. This was some of the heaviest aerial bombing in world history. Estimated civilian deaths: 500,000 people The United States dropped an estimated 285 million cluster bomblets all over Southeast Asia during the course of the Vietnam War - seven bomblets for every man, woman and child. By 1973 it was estimated that there were at least nine million unexploded bomblets still lying on Laotian territory. As much as half a million tons of unexploded ordnance (primarily cluster-bombs) remains littered all over the Laotian countryside - 35 years later. Every year, throughout all these past 35 years, hundreds of innocent Laotian children and civilian people are murdered or maimed by American cluster-bombs. Bombs dropped by United States Air Force crews.

>From Rogue State by William Blum:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^...

The Laotian left, led by the Pathet Lao, tried to effect social change peacefully, making significant electoral gains and taking part in coalition governments. But the United States would have none of that. The CIA and the State Department, through force, bribery and other pressures, engineered coups in 1958, 1959 and 1960. Eventually, the only option left for the Pathet Lao was armed force. The CIA created its infamous “Arme Clandestine”- totaling 30,000, from every corner of Asia - to do battle, while the US Air Force, between 1965 and 1973, rained down more than two million tons of bombs upon the people of Laos, many of whom were forced to live in caves for years in a desperate attempt to escape the monsters falling from the sky. After hundreds of thousands had been killed, many more maimed, and countless bombed villages with hardly stone standing upon stone, the Pathet Lao took control of the country, following on the heels of events in Vietnam.

KOREA :
Between 1950 and 1953 the greatest devastation was of course inflicted upon the civilian people of North Korea . The United States Corporate Mafia Government and military were terribly frustrated by the heroic determination of the Korean people and their Chinese allies to be free of American domination. To teach them the “virtues” of the American way, the Pentagon began a deliberate campaign of bloody genocide from the air and on the ground beginning in June 1950, using 20 times more napalm against the Korean people than it used in World War II. It was during the Korean Genocide that American military personnel first started using the term “****.” Many subhuman Americans felt it was okay to slaughter Korean children and rape Korean women because they were all just “gooks.” This sort of bestial racism is a tradition in the bloodthirsty United States military. War criminals always attempt to justify their own evil inhumanity by imagining their victims as being less than human. By the end of America's genocidal assault nearly 3 million civilian people in North Korea had died horribly, either directly from American bombing and massacres or from war-related causes such as starvation and disease. The events in Sinchon County are a typical example of American war crimes in Korea .

SINCHON:
Sinchon was considered a Communist stronghold when American troops occupied the town in September 1950. By the time a North Korean and Chinese counter-offensive was able to drive them out in early December 1950, racist American troops had already managed to mass-murder 35,383 people- one out of every four of the county's 140,000 inhabitants. To this day a local museum carefully chronicles the extent of U.S. war crimes in Sinchon: Americans burned 5,484 dwellings and destroyed 618 factories, public buildings and irrigation facilities, committing the cold-blooded murder of tens of thousands of people in the process. Then, when American troops were forced to retreat, they took revenge on women and children. In order to make the world safe for democracy, American troops murdered 900 helpless civilian people in an air-raid shelter by pouring gasoline into the shelter's ventilation hole and setting it on fire.

In Wonam-ri , North Korea , American troops locked 502 women and their children in two storehouses and then burned them all alive too. This was done in December 1950, while American politicians and military leaders preached from every pulpit about the terrible threat of “Godless Communism.”

“No refugees to cross the front line. Fire everyone trying to cross lines.” 8 th Cavalry Regiment communications log two days before the No Gun Ri massacre. “American soldiers played with our lives like boys playing with flies.” Chun Choon-ja - a 12-year-old Korean girl in 1950 survivor of the No Gun Ri massacre

I TRIED TO EDIT IT BUT COULDNT BECAUSE THE CRIME IS SO MUCH IT DOESNT GET LESS THAN THIS BUT I DID REMOVE THE ONES IN JAPAN AND CAMBODIA

Answer 1

Well, I think I understand what you're conveying, and I am pretty certain I'm right.

The law of nature is that IT IS THES POWER THAT RULES. It's not the justice, right or wrong, but POWER. It is only those with power who can do anything they want and get away with it. If it wasn't US, it probably would have been somebody else.

Another thing is this kind of things you're describing come from "dark side of human nature". All men and women have this dark side no matter what country they belong to. I think that's why Bible says God kept reducing human life span from several hundred years to 120 and then to current average of 70 to 80.

Imagine how the world would be like if murderers, thieves, gamblers and etc were to live hundreds of years. That's why we all have to die for our own good and for good of others. However while we're alive let's understand that we're all mortal with feet of clay and FOLLOW OUR CONSCIENCE AND COMMON SENSE.

I hope those who read my answer understands what I am conveying.

Answer 2

lol! :D Yeah, all of the "Anti-Americans" "American-Haters" really "DO" hate Americans. They really wanna work and be a citizen of the USA, they drink and hang out at Star Bucks (there;s lot of Star Bucks in the world), they also like Mac Donalds, Kentucky Friend Chicken, Pepsi, Coke-Cola, etc. Just name all the American brands. they say it out loud (or not out loud) Americans this and that, but they still use American brands. So weird lol and they hate anything that got to do with the Americans, but they love American based products. Now, that's just strange.... lol

Answer 3

Whew, you said a mouthful. I was not going to address this issue because I know why America gets hit. However, the ignorance displayed by midrash40 pushed me to write.

Those Asian countries whome he says do not sponsor terrorism; they have America by the economic ying-yangs. Not exactly terrorism but, let's wait and see. Our economy is completely dependent on much of Asia.

The Jews have not been in Israel for 3300 years. The Jews had a transient kingdom in the lands of Palestine for approx. 100 years during Biblical times. Even then they aquired the land by commiting genocide (remember the Ca'annanites?).

Islam has not sponsored terrorism for 1400 years. Christian Crusaders have been trying to wrestle Jerusalem from the ARABS for the last 1400 years.

Just some clarification.

Answer 4

I do not support USA in Iraq and think it should get out of there. Right now.

But it is a War. technically it would be decided under war crimes.

Terrorist do not fight an open war.

Answer 5

I see you quote Blum's book. Certainly you must provide some more documentation for such extensive information. I don't want to believe that you read one guys book and decided it was the truth, so please list the other sources that you have used in your research.

Frankly, I am skeptical. Especially, since the way you authored this barrage was incredibly biased. You tried to prove a point by giving adjectives such as coward and evil before any mention of the USA, however, it only damaged the reputation by which we should trust your information. It is obvious you do not have impartial statistics, and therefore, inadequate in supporting your assertion.

Perhaps I should make biased claims on an opposing front, such as the quality of life provided to women in strict Muslim countries. Certainly poor by the majority of the world's standards. So then can I find an author who supports this opinion and begin to copy and paste his literature to ensure a victorious truth? No. It is biased and unfair. Like you.

Answer 6

All I can say is 'thank you' and that I feel immensely ignorant that I did not know of these statistics. You are right in that it should be read by every American - you need to figure out how you can do accomplish this...so for this lovely Friday in Florida I hope that you can have this available for EVERYONE to read, absorb and then weep.
Have a great day -

Answer 7

This information is definitely informative.

But now what???

This is a website dominated by teenage kids and folks asking a lot of basic questions (i.e.How do I make tuna casserole? What's the capital of Australia?) This site is for basics, not in depth consideration.

Please, vote, write your congressman, support political action.
Because little will happen after posting this info.

Answer 8

I don't believe that the United States is to bare the whole blame for everything that you said. Yes our government is to blame for doing hateful things to get their own way but why in Gods name does everyone blame every American for what others have done to them, we are not all bad and we surely don't deserve any more hatred from you or your countrymen either. We are here and have no control over what Bush does or says and who says we believe him anyway? He has lied to all of us just to get his own way and yet you and others are the first to point fingers at all Americans for something they had no control over. Now isn't that stupid of you and so many others to do?
We could turn around and blame you and everyone in Iraq for the terrorist acts against us but we know better, we only blame those who are stupid enough to wear bombs and run or drive into building or crowds of people just for the sake of killing, not that's TERRORISM and we didn't bomb our twin towers did we? We didn't take planes with innocent people on board and fly those planes into buildings and say that we did it for our God did we?
Whose God accepts murdering innocent people and allows those killers into His heaven anyway? If this is what your God allows then I thank my God for being a good God and for keeping your God in Iraq where he belongs with all the real TERRORIST OF THE WORLD.
For all we know you too are a terrorist who is trying to confuse us into believing the crap you want us to believe, well forget it mister and take your terrorist buddies out with you and leave us innocent Americans alone. We did not hurt you so put the blame at Bush's door step and not ours.

Answer 9

Thats not terrorism anymore, its define as war, what al qaeda, Jemaah Islamiah, Hamas, these are terrorist organisation. when a government deploying troops to a foreign soil with the UN consent thats WAR not terrorism. jihadist, IRA, PLO these are act of terrorism. i'm not an american or a muslim eitherno bias

Answer 10

Please next time read though first and remove useless information. Good I skim read. What is your question here? whether or not America is a terrorist ?or Whether America deserves Terrorism?
