American Democracy?

[Striker9 0]

Democracy, in definition, is a system of government by which the sovereignty is retained by the people. Democratic regimes usually guarantee the full rights and freedom of the person, where a person?s freedom ends at the freedom of another. The United States of America is one of the most democratic countries on the globe, at least that?s what everybody thinks is true? And the USA has been waging wars and intervening in other countries? affairs over the past few years in the name of democracy and the liberation of suppressed people. But the question is how much of the democracy advocated by the USA is applied in states, and is that the real cause behind those devastating wars or there are some hidden causes and benefits?It?s widely known that USA represents a melting of races and cultures, where you can find almost every race, culture, religion, ethnicity, background? etc. In theory, all these diverse groups have equal rights and duties. On the other hand, the American government is indirectly racist against some races and religions; and the most explicit form of discrimination is that against Muslims where you can hardly get into the states if you were a Muslim, and if you got the chance to go there, you will be faced by a sort of religious apartheid! When you complain about this unfairness and bad treatment, the American officials would directly bring up what happened on 9/11 and use it an excuse to literally abase you! But this is not the only form of discrimination practiced by the American government. Despite the fact that slavery is forbidden and illegalized now, the attitude of some officials in the American government and courts indicates that the racist mentality of the white man against the black one is still found in their sick minds! This is clearly obvious in what happened in Jena Six, where 6 black high school students were charged with second degree attempted murder and conspiracy after being judged by an ALL WHITE JURY who took this unfair decision in only 2 days ignoring the racial tension that was going on at that time when a black guy requested to sit under a tree at the school yard where only white students used to sit, to come on the other day and see 3 nooses hanging down from the tree! All that exposes the American government and officials of being racists within their own country, and all their boasting about the democracy they live in relies on no valid and solid grounds. We?ve witnessed and heard all about the American conquest to spread democracy in the Middle East and achieve the scheme of what is called ?The New Middle East?. The question is what?s this conquest all about? The answer is plain and simple and any person with a sense of logic and some analysis abilities could figure it out. George Bush declared war against terror and conquered Afghanistan and killed thousands of people and yet Osama Bin Laden is still alive enjoying his freedom! Then this same American president and his government marched to Iraq, destroyed the whole country, killed more than 200,000 civilians in 5 years, and generated chaos and infighting between different ethnicities and religious cults (Kurds & Arabs ? Sunni?s & Shiites), and all that was to remove the massive destruction weapons from Iraq which were NEVER FOUND YET and end the reign of the tyrant called Saddam Hussein. No one could argue that Saddam Hussein was a tyrant and had to be removed, but killing all those innocent people and messing up a country like Iraq doesn?t that make George W. Bush even a worse tyrant than Saddam?!! Well here comes the simple answer and ?justification? to all that terrorism: petroleum! The Americans have been stealing the Afghani and Iraqi oil in huge amounts ever since they conquered those two countries. And now they are pressuring Iran to give up their right in developing nuclear projects to pave the way, maybe, to an upcoming war hoping to lay their hands on Iran?s oil. The American ?democracy? doesn?t end there, it also continues to Lebanon, Palestine and the whole Middle East. Starting with Palestine, the Americans demanded democratic and fair elections to take place in Palestine, and then once the results were in and Hamas won the elections the Americans refused to admit that this is what the people wants and forced the international body not to cooperate with the new democratically elected authorities? too much democracy, right? Then comes Lebanon which the American government considers as a playground for settling business with Iran and Syria. The Americans keep on intervening in every aspect of the political life of Lebanon cutting down the way for any solution that the Lebanese might reach. Kondoliza Rice, David Welche and other American officials discuss and talk about the Lebanese issues more than the Lebanese themselves, and all that is in the name of ?democracy?! But just in case George Bush and his government didn?t notice, I?d like to draw their attention to the fact that KSA, UAE, Egypt, Kuwait?etc are ALL dictatorship and yet they never lecture them about their so-called democracy, and that?s merely because the Americans literally ?enslave? the kings and leaders of those countries! So how come they keep intervening in Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, Iraq and Iran preaching the people to their fraud democracy while they never preach to that same democracy in all other Arab counties that NEVER witnessed any parliamentary elections?!In the end, all what I can say is that the claimed American democracy is nothing but crap and their preaching to liberation and freedom of speech is mere hypocrisy and no one shall be deceived by their fake slogans. And the clearest evidence which exposes the American hypocrisy is what goes on in Iraq, in Abu Ghoraib prison, in Guantanamo prison where people are jailed without even being on a fair trial, and in their attitude towards the Israeli ? Palestinian situation where they condemn the Palestinian innocent civilians because simply they happen to be in the range of the Israeli artillery and aircraft bombs! But how long would the American reign persist if those corrupted people continue to rule the states and if the Americans do not change their foreign policy that is bringing them nothing but hatred and grudge?
