The sad story of young Kuwaiti man whose detention at Guantanamo propel him to become a suicide bomber. Link
Others have been jailed and tortured and released and have not taken his route. Whether his imprisonment and torture at Guantanamo propelled him to be a suicide bomber we will never know. Anyway it is too late to ask him such questions. But that should not be the question. The question should be whether he should have been sent to Guantanamo and jailed without due process.
Just as I predicted Netanyahu has been selected as the Prime Minister of Israel. And I dread the worst for the region. This man is soaked with arrogance and hatred for anything Palestinians, Arab or Muslim. If Hamas does not recognize Israel’s right to exist in words, Netanyahu believes exactly the same, against the Palestinians right to exist, but with action. He believes that the war crimes committed against the people of Gazza by Israel was not sever enough or should have lasted longer.
So what is next? Well, Israel has practically decapitated its Arab neighbors ability to attack it. Iraq, under Saddam, was the only Arab country that was able to be considered a threat to Israel arrogance in the region. So Israel hired the US to eliminate that danger. Netanyahu believes that Iran is the remaining danger to Israels right to dominate the region. So Israel must strike, with or without the blessing of the USA. When Netanyahu decides to strike Iran, which I predict he will do sooner than later, then expect Iran to retaliate. If the US interfere and help Israel, which I predict it will, remember Obama had wasted no time to appease the Jewish State when he was campaigning for the presidency, then expect Iran to attack strategic locations nearby, the Gulf countries, which I predict it will specially if the US strikes Iran from basis in the region.
And when this happens, which I predict will, then expect the entire region to be in flames.
Petrol prices will go up. Terrorism will go up. American interests, or any country that supports Israel, will be attacked.. specially in the Muslim world.
And the West will not care…. anything to appease the Jewish State. After all, the route to paradise according to certain quarters within the Evangalical Christian community in the US that supports Israel right to kill, will only be open if they do what Israel asks them to do.

An Arab and an Italian singing about their love. Enjoy this beautiful song that reinforces my belief that we were all born to celebrate each other difference. What can I say.. phenomenonal voices.
This will happen. Netanyahu will be the next Prime Minister of Israel. A year from now, Israel will bomb Iran nuclear plants with the logistical help of the US. Iran will get angry, and will create havoc in the gulf specially in Iraq. If it becomes a full scale war, then Iran will have no option but bomb the oil fields of oil rich countries in the gulf. After all, the US Army has its basis there. The US Army will have no other option but reinforce their presence with more troops. The region will be bloodier than ever before. And the winner will be…. The War Industry. And when this happened few years down the road, please remember that you read that here…
Without a doubt, if Iraq is Bush’s Vietnam, Afghanistan will be Obama’s Iraq. If America has no business in Iraq, it has no business being in Afghanistan any more. An alternative strategy is needed. America needs to reformat not reset its foreign policies.
A very interesting article… please help to spread it.. so that the world learns the truth.
So that’s that then, is it? Gaza is done and dusted? Very satisfying, I’m sure, for the Israeli leadership and their devoted allies at the BBC. But not so fast. For the one and a half million traumatised and wounded souls in that small strip, unendurable agony goes on. The very earth they stand on burns and cracks. And I am not here indulging a writer’s tendency to hyperbole or neat metaphor.
