Pakistani dictator Pervez Musharraf revealed, in an interview with the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corp.) exactly how the leadership of the Grand Alliance Against Terrorism sees Canada’s role. With some insultingly snide put-downs, he dismissed any concern in Canada about casualties in Afghanistan as cry-baby weakness.
Canadians, when listening to this boorish drivel, should remember exactly what Pervez Musharraf is: he is not the democratically elected leader of anything. He is a murderous gangster, who seized control of a country in a military coup. His regime is brutal, corrupt, and oppressive, especially towards women, for whom he has often demonstrated his contempt. He is a long-time supporter of the Taliban,. who has set up a smoke-and-mirrors show of phony “war-on-terror” hokum, while it is almost certain that he is currently protecting the Taliban and Al-Kaida .… perhaps even arming, training and supplying them again. He is also in posession of nuclear weapons, acquired largely through a network of espionage and theft.
Prime Minister Harper, are you listening? This man, who obviously considers Canadians to be mere disposable peasants, is the man that you have been telling us is a great and noble ally. Musharaff’s arrogant contempt for Canada and Canadians is self-evident. You want Canadians to risk their lives, and die, not for freedom, or peace, or to protect the innocent, but for sickening scum like this dictator.
Canada’s original mission in Afghanistan was to secure liberated zones, protect ordinary Afghans, and help them reconstruct a war-torn and pillaged society. That is what Canadians expected our forces to do. It is Prime Minister Harper who has distorted and subverted that mission so that Canadian soldiers will act as mercenaries for George W. Bush, in a perpetual campaign of warfare that is rigged to never accomplish anything and never end. It cannot succeed or end, because the forces it fights in Afghanistan are safe and protected by Musharraf in Pakistan’s north-western region. The only result will be that Canada will spend money, and Canadians will die. Nobody will be better off, no bad people will be punished, no good people saved. The only people who will benefit will be George W. Bush’s gang of cronies, and vermin like Musharraf, both of whom have clearly demonstrated that they consider us to be their serfs.
