From the very beginning, even before there was any
evidence at all, American officials blamed Osama Bin Laden for the
strikes against the World Trade Center’s twin towers and the
Pentagon.
The accusations against the millionaire Saudi
dissident fanned the fires of hatred against Arabs and Muslims who
live in America. In one day, Zionism accomplished what it could not
do in more than 50 years of anti-Arab and anti-Muslim propaganda via
the cinema and through the media.
What happened to the innocents who happened to be on
the hijacked planes or present in the buildings that were hit is a
horrible tragedy. Now, angered beyond belief, Americans are thirsty
for blood…anyone’s blood. They need a scapegoat and the media has
given them all too conveniently the idea that this scapegoat is to
be found in Arabs and Muslims all over the world.
It would not be in good taste to say that these
attacks are the result of the American foreign policy in the Middle
East that is consistently pro-Israel and anti-Arab. No one cares
right now that it is American missiles, bombs, aircraft and bullets
that cut down and murder Palestinians just because they are
Palestinian. No one is concerned about how many Palestinians have
been slaughtered by Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and right
now through his crocodile tears, he is trying to portray himself as
the "good guy."
But think about it. Who would really stand to gain
the most from such an attack against the American people? No one
Arab country would be stupid enough to carry out an attack against
the military might of America and its allies. Any Arab leader,
however impotent he might be, would not be fool enough to bring
about the wrath of the world’s greatest power.
And this is not a case of some disgruntled isolated
patches of people trying to get revenge for various wrongs. What
happened took a lot of money and know-how to carry it through. The
country best enabled to carry out such a humongous feat is not an
Arab or a Muslim one, but Israel.
Israel is the one country that stands the most to
gain from such an unfathomable attack on American institutions and
military. Israel is the one country that has, thanks to US
assistance; the most sophisticated spying devices in the world with
the exception of the US itself. Remember Jonathan Pollard?
Zionists have penetrated every echelon of America.
They are there in the FBI, the CIA, in conglomerates, in Congress,
in the White House and in every neighborhood and at every
workstation throughout America.
Israel would stand most to gain. Even though Sharon
has declared a day of mourning for America’s dead, he sheds false
tears and it is very very likely that in his heart he could not be
happier. In the meantime, he has stepped up his crimes against
Palestinian civilians.
It is not just what American officials are telling
their people, it is what they are not telling them as well that is
very important. Evidence can even be planted to make it look like
Arab and Muslim terrorists carried out the evil deed of killing
thousands of innocent Americans.
By accusing Islamic groups of the attacks on
American people, the media has jeopardized the safety and lives of
Arab Americans and Muslim Americans who reside in the United States.
The hate directed against these ethnic Americans is blind and evil.
What is equally surprising is the response today by
one of Reverend Billy Graham’s sons who said that America must
retaliate with mass weapons of destruction against the perpetrators
of the attack and anyone who harbors them. Even if Osama Bin Laden
is responsible for what happened in New York and the Pentagon, he is
not a country and innocent people should not be slaughtered for
something they have not done. But for a person who should be
preaching about peace and harmony, for forgiveness, for seeking the
roots of the tragedy and trying to eradicate evil in a sane way,
Reverend Graham’s son is advocating death, destruction, murder and
perhaps an Armageddon.
God help us all.
