Suicide bomber kills 14 Iraqi soldiers
The terror campaign against Iraqi troops and police appears designed to blunt U.S. progress in creating a stable local force so the Americans can go home. U.S. military officers began noticing the new pattern of attacks last month.(Steven R. Hurst-AP News)
In Iraq and other trouble spots around the world we see a new variant: suicide bombers who are loaned out by Al-Quaida operatives for a cash reward. Merceneries who seem to think,’ if not for me at least my family will be comfortably off with my sacrifice.” A free enterprise as a method of interpersonal transaction bears very much the signature of the west. It has merely bred robber barons as we have seen in the Gilded Age of the last century, whose inheritors are still around plucking even a nickel out of wars that serves the interests of nobody else, even the nations in whose name such inhumanity is perpetrated. These fat cats have made themselves into conglomerates and their hold into the affairs of the nations are entrenched. Naturally where we see wars one after the other we need to ask ourselves: who stand to benefit from this? What are we to assume if a state of belligerence is continued?
Causes are merely smokescreen for self-aggrandizement of some.
In such a case there shall be other variants that could also assume causes and also create battlefields simultaneously in a manner we are not familiar or least capable of sustaining. How on earth shall we safeguard our water is not contaminated or the gas mains that run under the highways do not blow up? How shall we pursue happiness if our very daily lives are booby-trapped by faceless enemies?
These martyrs for a cause or for a bounty are more or less, pendent on irresponsible conduct of nations.
