Spreading Theocracy It is suggested that the Iranian invasion of Mexico in 2003, supported by an alliance of Arab nations including Syria and Lebanon, has now claimed over 2 ˝ million lives. The justification for the invasion as we now know was false – Mexico possessed no weapons of mass destruction and posed no threat to Iran’s ally Venezuela. But three years on the Iranian military, supported by their allies, remain as occupiers within a country crumbling under the relentless violence. With one eye on the occupation and one eye on the surrounding region Iran has recently been caught in a bit of a diplomatic crisis – the recent detention of it’s forces by a hostile neighbour. While it is alleged that Iran has been conducting clandestine operations within the US, Iran’s historic foe, perhaps even so far as supporting extremist groups responsible for numerous deaths, and openly arresting US ‘diplomats’ working within Mexico. The US response to these hostilities and the diplomatic pressure being mounted by Iran to force US nuclear disarmament - the capture of a number of Iranian troops alleged gathering intelligence within US territorial waters and the subsequent parading of the captives on US cable television has been described by commentators as the most ‘hear[t]-rending picture on our screens in recent years.’ |

Jump To Comment: 1 2Extract from 'What If Iran Had Invaded Mexico? - Putting the Iran Crisis in Context' by Noam Chomsky:
"Doubtless Iran's government merits harsh condemnation, including for its recent actions that have inflamed the crisis. It is, however, useful to ask how we would act if Iran had invaded and occupied Canada and Mexico and was arresting U.S. government representatives there on the grounds that they were resisting the Iranian occupation (called "liberation," of course). Imagine as well that Iran was deploying massive naval forces in the Caribbean and issuing credible threats to launch a wave of attacks against a vast range of sites -- nuclear and otherwise -- in the United States, if the U.S. government did not immediately terminate all its nuclear energy programs (and, naturally, dismantle all its nuclear weapons). Suppose that all of this happened after Iran had overthrown the government of the U.S. and installed a vicious tyrant (as the US did to Iran in 1953), then later supported a Russian invasion of the U.S. that killed millions of people (just as the U.S. supported Saddam Hussein's invasion of Iran in 1980, killing hundreds of thousands of Iranians, a figure comparable to millions of Americans). Would we watch quietly?"
worried. Some people in movies get red telephones of the old dial up analog version I suppose they have red mobiles now like sick boy in Irving Welsh's sublime novel "porno". But I just got an effin bleeper tied into the quickest supercomputer on the continent and a bunch of crusaders turned into parchment.
Wake up you bleary eyed one. Iran has invaded Mexico. the Minutemen militia are out of ammo. The weathermen have reformed and infitrated youtube. Dan Brown wants permission to do another book. Ratzinger is talking code. Chomsky is just so relentlessly energetic and it's so hard to keep up. Write that counter-cultural slogan - do a global subvert campaign you've less than one hour. Now what the fk do I do? play the piano? go back asleep? fly the Iranian flag? write to Castro? goto the beach?
shoot a shorter shooting.
It purports to be a ritualised activity this massacre business. But only in very rare cases is is a drawnout and meticulously recorded thing. That sort of person hides away and plans and reads Dante & pops up on your library searches. Yes we've still got an anamolous object. But it is not the only one. Go back to sleep. Marcus will save Mexico. Theyve the right to bear arms and a 5th column as far as Cascadia. Sorry folks but we're not going into armed revolt this week. Wait for Clinton.
