Subject: Neue Einheit: Against the US' web of lies - organize uncoverings!
*Against the Web of Lies by the US' Propaganda - Organize
the Necessary Uncoverings!*
As to the US' and our media's propaganda about Osama bin
Laden's Islamistic fundamentalist terrorism being the
decisive originator of the monstrous attacks in the US,
only one thing can be said: *it is completely implausible.*
The policy of large-scale imperialist interventionist wars
against real but also alleged supporting countries, and of
reactionary interventions into the inner conditions of many
countries, ours included, as it is being announced now,
must be fought with utmost resolution by the Left if it
does not want to loose any legitimation at all, *and first
of all it is the priority task of the Left to tear up the
web of lies.*
What has one to start from in doing that:
- the Islamistic fundamentalist terrorism of bin Laden and
other groups is a product of the US herself and one of her
important helpers up to today. Since 1985 at the latest the
US herself has directed the equipping of these groups with
modern weaponry, their financing and training as well as
their massive recruitment from a lot of Islamic countries,
with close allies like Pakistan and Saudi-Arabia acting as
go-betweens, in order to at first make use of them in the
Afghan war. Without the US these groups would be almost
nothing. Later such organisations like for example the very
bin Laden organisation turn up in other focal points where
the US is involved but prefers covert operations, as in
Bosnia, in Chechnia and in Albania-Kosovo. As comrades in
arms of the KLA, for example, up to today they immediately
serve the intentions of the US. There have in fact been
also some attacks, as in 1993 on the WTC, on the US
embassies in Africa and on the destroyer Cole which are
said to have been committed by Osama bin Laden against the
US, but they are acts which all the more didn't scratch the
US' regime and were in fact rather of propagandistic value.
For the US' webs of lies by which they mislead about the
true character of the Islamistic fundamentalist terrorism
in its own and her own interest, such acts are even
indispensable. Therefore these occurrences do not
contradict the basic assessment of the very close liaison
between the Islamistic fundamentalist terrorism and the US'
foreign policy.
- That the bin Laden organisation is capable on its own of
such attacks as now is correctly put into doubt for a lot
of reasons. Whereas it does not at all seem out of the
question that people from these circles were involved in
the attacks, a leading role of Osama bin Laden or an
organisation dependent on him is decidedly put into
question by the enormous effort in terms of secret service
work and of general staff work required for the
preparation. It is really too conspicuous that on the one
hand Osama bin Laden as the alleged international top
terrorist is said to have been under search and the most
intense supervision by secret services for years, that from
this direction monstrous attacks are announced and even
concrete warnings are transmitted to the US in time, and on
the other the US government then declares that her secret
services have been abolutely clueless.
- The US apparently uses far-fetched allegiations to get
the interventionist war. This should not come as a surprise
for leftists and anti-imperialists, in the face of the
grave crises of the US and the whole Western capitalism in
general. They have lost control of the situation in the
Middle East and in other regions of the world. The economic
crisis threatens to become a crash, and so it did of course
prior to the attacks. On the other hand the Islamic
fundamentalism, with the regime in Iran as an example, is
confronted by the increasing question of the cheated masses
what are its real achievements. The social crisis in Iran -
and not only there but in the whole realm of Islamic
dominance - is burning, and organisations like Hamas do not
make headway as the US who supports Israel, has at the same
time its fingers in the Islamic fundamentalism, covered
only a little bit.
For the reasons mentioned nobody who thinks politically can
avoid scrutinizing the hypothesis that as well in certain
ultrareactionary forces of the US as in Islamic
fundamentalist forces there is an interest in such
occurrences. For the US as she is seeking a way out in war
hysteria and wars and for that needs reasons, occasions, up
to provocations; for the Islamic fundamentalism as it must
show that allegedly something happens against the "Big
Satan".
The whole Left as well as other forces not interested in
new imperialist wars of intervention must make a public
issue of these and possibly more connections, refute the
lies and do the necessary clearing up.
