U.S. presence in Iraqi region could trigger off "nuclear war" Professor warns |

Canada must prevent the prospects of World War III
U=2ES. presence in Iraqi region could trigger off "nuclear war"
Professor warns
by Peter Chang
Should we as human beings be guided by wisdom associated with mutual
respect for human rights and social justice toward peace? Or, should
human beings instead, destroy themselves, by ignoring human rights,
and choosing the path of militarism, over peace? Correspondingly,
should the human race be inspired by the ideals of international law,
associated with United Nations conventions? Or, should the human race
continue to descend into a cycle of retribution associated with
military provocations, that destroys the lives of men, women,
children, and the ecosystems that sustain all life on our planet.
Professor Michel Chossudovsky in a published article about the U.S.,
Iraq, and Iran, warns of such a prospective nuclear war, unless there
is a timely needed correction of dysfunctional U.S. foreign policy
approaches. Michel Chossudovsky implicitly refers to continued
American presence in Iraq as "de-stablising", as corroborated by a
prospects of a worsening context for civil war in Iraq. He implicitly
further presents the continued U.S. presence in Iraq as being an
incentive for the pursuit of nuclear weapons by Iran in the first
place.
According to Chossudovsky, the United States Congress ought to support
a full military withdrawal of Iraq. Such a withdrawal should advisably
be replaced by a "United Nations Peace Force". This "Peace Force"
would be like a multi-national police-like entity, under the
collective responsibility of the United Nations. Such a benevolent
'Peace Force' would remove a U.S. presence that is creating a culture
of worsening violence, and dangerous regional instability.
A timely withdrawal by the United States from Iraq, and introduction
of a United Nations peace making presences, would restore the rule of
international law by the United Nations, toward corresponding Iraqi
law and order, and remove any military incentive by Iran to seek
nuclear weapons. Such a Peace Force would importantly seek to affirm a
climate for human rights, and social justice, based upon a model of
universal access to food, clothing, shelter, and healthcare.
Unfortunately, the Iraq War as reported by many mass-media
organizations, has presented an opportunity for U.S. commercial
interests to unethically seek to profiteer from that Iraqi War, at the
expense of fostering a vital social context that affirms peace.
The result of the apparent neglect to affirm human rights, and social
justice, and a vital climate for full national sovereignty for the
people of Iraq, apparently, according to Chossudovsky, is an ever
worsening regional context of instability. The so-called "War of
Terrorism" according to Chossudovsky and other activists, has become
an apparent "War of Terror". In this "War of Terror", the loss of
lives of Muslims, and other non-whites are being trivialized relative
to the need to pursue a demonized enemy, =E0 la George Orwell's book
'1984'. In turn, Muslim groups (who view themselves as "freedom
fighters" against an unwanted U.S. military presence, rather than
terrorists), demonize all "Americans", and other peoples from
"coalition partner" countries, as 'evil' infidels from barbaric
regimes.
People in 'Western Societies' are being cajoled into surrendering
their rights, to the very oppressive ideologies that these societies
sought to prevent in a World War, that was started at that time by pre-
emptive military invasion by Nazi Germany in World War II.
The worsening conditions for international insecurity ARE being
created by the dysfunctional policy context of the so-called "War
against Terrorism", which in turn is being used to legitimate the neo-
fascist usurpation of human and civil rights in the U.S., and
internationally.
America is a society that has been substantively propelled by great
ideals associated with "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness".
However, the United States was also created from a very violent
Revolutionary war, which a multi-cultural constituency of United
Empire Loyalists, who emigrated to Canada, sought to avoid.
America has enjoyed the principled leadership of many champions for
that nation's constitutional ideals. These leaders sought to provide
international leadership based upon the strength and power of American
idealism, with the use of military force strictly in a defensive
capacity =E0 la World Wars I and II.
The America that re-built Europe after the ravages of World War II,
inspired Americans including Dr. Martin Luther King, and Robert F.
Kennedy toward a society that sought "equality and justice for all".
That America recognized that a better life for all Americans is
secured when the American ideals are defended, with words and passion
rather than coercion and threats. Former President Dwight D.
Eisenhower who had also been guided by these ideals also referred to
the threat of a "military-industrial" complex, against America's
democratic fabric.
The current prevailing America, appears to have given up the multi-
lateral consensus building power of American ideals, in favour of a
path of political confrontation, and the sought use of military power,
as a means to enforcing "unilateralism". In other words, America
appears to be reverting to its violent Revolutionary foundations that
United Empire Loyalists had sought to flee away from into Canada.
Americans collectively have, in the process, failed to protect the
very idealistic values which their Republic was founded upon.
Americans collectively are wilfully giving up their democratic values,
to vested interests that seek to proselytize the cynical Orwellian
demonization of a "common enemy", toward fascist police state social
control.
"Free Speech" today in America, for example, is quickly becoming as
diminished as Cold War Soviet Union, where citizens were also
wiretapped, and subjected to ensuing police state harassment.
Canada is a society that was founded upon the rejection of a culture
of violence that was symbolized by American's Revolutionary 'War of
Independence', toward values of 'Peace, Order, and Good Government',
as expressed in Confederation's founding Constitution.
Canada has traditionally sought to help moderate the tendencies toward
unilateralist foreign policy in the United States. However, the
Stephen Harper-led-Conservative minority government, and is being led
by a group that seeks to turn Canadians away from their national
identity as a socially progressive society, into a path of
corresponding militarism. Such an untimely disastrous break from our
vital national identity as a non-militaristic-peace seeking society,
is removing a vital international check against the reversion of
America into its violent militaristic foundations. It was these
foundations, which made Canada endure multiple attempts by America to
engage in pre-emptive military attacks, toward the take-over of
Canada, that included the War of 1812.
Countries like Iran and other opportunistic political adversaries of
the U.S, rightly or wrongly, now appear to perceive that America will
pursue military action, irrespective of international consensus that
is fostered by United Nations leadership. The result is that the
Middle East, and Iraq as the geo-political epicentre, is becoming an
increasingly dangerous militarized milieu, on the geo-political
borders of five very wary nuclear powers. The perception of American
'unilaterlism' supported by the U.S. foreign policy precedence of the
pre-emptive strike against Iraq, is creating a dangerous foreign
policy prism. The perception that the U.S. will ultimately resort to a
military objective to gets its own way, has created a perception among
U=2ES. potential adversaries like Iran, of an "inevitable" nuclear
'military solution', one way or the other.
The seeking of nuclear technological capability by Iran appears to
many American leaders and other leaders of western Industrialized
societies as a race toward nuclear weapons. However, Professor
Chossudovsky supports the hypothesis that this apparent race for
nuclear weapons is being spawned by the precedence of the U.S. pre-
emptive strike in Iraq based upon alleged weapons of mass-destructive,
and the continued presence of these military forces that is being
perceived as a provocation against the sovereignty of Muslim peoples.
The race to seek nuclear weapons by any country as the result of the
perception of an immediate threat to its sovereignty by a political
adversary, in theory, constitutes threatening conditions for nuclear
war. Iran's reported seeking of nuclear weapons in the face of the
perception of an imminent American military threat, in turn would
theoretically create a very dangerous "jumpiness" among suspicious
regional nuclear powers, like Pakistan, India, China, and Russia; as
well as fanatical groups, with increasingly destructive capabilities,
who are arming themselves against a U.S. presence. The only rational
way to deal with the threat of a country like Iran from seeking to
create nuclear weapons, is to remove the incentive to create nuclear
weapons because of the perception of a U.S. threat to its national
sovereignty.
U=2ES. political elites have expressed concern about the threat that
Iran would pose it was "allowed" to create nuclear weapons. However,
the adoption of a U.S. "military solution" as the apparent perceived
adopted path of achieving ultimate U.S. foreign objectives, is
creating the very conditions toward an Iraqi civil war, that spawns
into a regional war, that draws in already existing and "jumpy"
regional nuclear powers into a horrific Nuclear War, that destroys the
whole of human civilization.
A pre-emptive military strike is EXACTLY how both World War I and
World War II was started. World War II began in a somewhat similar
way, under similar "national security" pretexts, that was used to
justify the pre-emptive Iraqi War; and notably with the destruction of
civil rights, that America is now pursuing, (as Germany had in the
1930's). During both the pre-World War I and pre-World War II eras,
the idea of a situation spiralling into a World War, was generally
unthinkable.
As Professor Chossudovsky suggests, the prevention of conditions for a
World War III would be facilitated by the replacement of the
perception of an exploitative U.S. presence in Iraq, with a calming,
well-organized and benevolent U.N. presence toward Middle East
stablization. Such stablization would make the pretext of the "War
against Terrorism" redundant, because the conditions for spiralling
insecurity as the result of the current U.S. foreign policies would
cease.
Humanity can decide to continue along its current path of
belligerence, fear, and oppression, toward nuclear self-annihilation
as the result of dysfunctional "War against Terrorism" policies.
Alternatively, humanity can choose a context for peace that embraces
civil and human rights, social justice, and mutual respect for
national sovereignty.
