The Yanks are hypocrites.
Nov 26th, 2011 at 10:38am
 
Obama made a great speech to our nation from our parliament
& talked about how we are all on the side of freedom & democracy.
It was about how good we are.
At the same time the Yanks were selling chemical weapons to Egypt
to be used on peaceful people demonstrating for freedom & democracy!


I watched the chaos in Egypt last night.
The anti-riot gas canisters which have really powerful toxic contents are all made in the USA.
People were in agony from it - really bad stuff - what exactly was it?
I wonder who made this awful poison & what the health consequences of it will be?
Should we have sanctions against the USA for their export of chemical weapons?
I thought chemical weapons were the reason they invaded Iraq?
They only needed to look in the USA & they would have found plenty.
Iraq had none & they went to war over it.
Go figure that one???

the yanks need to sell weapons because that's the only manufacturing industry they have left. Soon they will probably outsource that stuff to china Cheesy LOL

I thought chemical weapons were outlawed by the Geneva Convention?
Doesn't it apply to Yanks?

Nuke carrier leads US strike force into Syrian waters

Meanwhile, America and Turkey are urging their citizens to leave Syria. The US released a statement on Wednesday urging American citizens to “depart immediately while commercial transportation is available.”

It's not hard to see why Obama is ignoring the financial debt crisis of his country.

Go straight to plan B.....war and wars.

Here's some more hypocrisy. Disturbing.
.................................

The Politics Of Gas Pipelines In Asia
By Abdus Sattar Ghazali, 21 November, 2011

In 1997, representatives of the Taliban are invited to the Texas headquarters of Unocal to negotiate their support for the pipeline. Future President George W. Bush is Governor of Texas at the time. The Taliban appear to agree to a $2 billion pipeline deal, but will do the deal only if the US officially recognizes the Taliban regime. The Taliban meet with US officials. According to the Daily Telegraph, “the US government, which in the past has branded the Taliban’s policies against women and children ‘despicable,’ appears anxious to please the fundamentalists to clinch the lucrative pipeline contract.”

It was reported that the Taliban met with Enron officials while in Texas. Enron, headquartered in Texas, had a large financial interest in the pipeline at the time.

Interestingly, the 9/11 Commission later concludes that some State Department diplomats are willing to “give the Taliban a chance” because it might be able to bring stability to Afghanistan, which would allow a Unocal oil pipeline to be built through the country. [9/11 Commission, 3/24/2004]

The TAP project was revived less than one month after the 9/11 attacks when US Ambassador Wendy Chamberlin meets (Oct 9, 2001) with the Pakistani oil minister to brief on the gas pipeline project from Turkmenistan, across Afghanistan, to Pakistan, which appears to be revived “in view of recent geopolitical developments.” [Frontier Post – 10/10/2011]

On May 30, 2002, Afghanistan’s interim leader, Hamid Karzai (who formerly worked for Unocal), Turkmenistan’s President Niyazov, and Pakistani President General Musharraf meet in Islamabad to sign a memorandum of understanding on the trans-Afghanistan gas pipeline project.

Hi Pansi,
We aren't stupid in Australia - we know that the Yanks are  hypocrites but
I suppose we don't have a choice - we have to deal with them.

Just like school kids -
We make friends with the bully in the playground so we don't get bashed by the others.

Water is a chemical. Does that make a garden hose a chemical weapon?

No - but poisonous chemicals such as whatever is in those United States cannisters is.
Have some people died because of it?
I think they have - almost like the Nazis & their gas chambers for Jews.

You 'think' someone might have died? Surely this is a new low in chemical warfare.

I'm not sure FD.
From memory some people went to hospital because of breathing difficulties & died.
I'll try & research it if you want?
How would you like a good dose of it while asking for freedom & democracy?

Sounds better than a bullet in the head. But maybe I'm just being picky.

OK - so you think that peaceful protestors should receive a bullet in the head -

No bobby you got it backwards. A bullet in the head would be worse, not better.
