Muhammad Shamsaddin MegalommatisThe unrepresentative tyrants of Africa who attended the Copenhagen summit must have been an excellent token at the hands of the colonial powers, England and France, that control the US establishment and utilize it in a way to perpetuate their grip on the world’s nations, oppressed peoples, and natural resources.

Although initially siding with China, Brazil and South Africa, the diplomats of many African countries that are mere colonial fabrications became at the end the puppets of Africa’s worst enemies.

An example is offered here:

“After overcoming the African objections in Copenhagen, negotiators appointed pairs of ministers from poor and rich nations to seek solutions to the most contentious issues ahead of the summit.

Ghana and Britain would examine ways to raise billions of dollars in new funds to help the poor, Grenada and Spain would look at disputes about sharing out the burden of emissions cuts by 2020. Singapore and Norway would look at a possible levy on bunker fuels to help raise funds”. (http://propagandapress.wordpress.com/2009/12/14/african-nations-boycott-copenhagen-climate-change-charade/)

In fact, China failed to offer the African peoples a comprehensive interpretation of the climate change and the Chinese stance to environmental matters. Then, the African diplomats turned to their opium, the colonial capitals and diplomats. The reason is simple; China has penetrated the African continent economically but this has little impact on the African policy making because the latter hinges mostly on the complex educational, cultural and political developments that took place in the Black Continent when China was absent.

The African tyrants share the same fate with the African peoples whom they mostly oppress, tyrannize and endanger through a perplex system that China has not even studied. However, the African elites, formed in their outright majority at the colonial capitals, cannot dissociate their interests and their fates from those of their masters who through interference and involvement ensured their socioeconomic and political rise back home. By so doing, the African elites, ignorant of the colonial strategy with respect to Africa (which happens to be most detrimental to all the African nations), actively dissociate themselves from the destiny of the populations they rule, control and oppress.

China’s relationship with the West has been most troublesome as well, for at least the past 170 years, ever since the Opium Wars started. The present leadership of China is aware of the plans of the Western leaderships against Beijing, Moscow, and the rise of an Asiatic landmass alliance; Beijing has also correctly assessed the importance of Africa for the colonial powers.

More recently and more importantly, China actively opposed in Copenhagen the CO2 fallacy that has become the focus of the evil diplomacies of England, France and America. This is greatly significant for the African peoples who have not been taken into account by the schemers who are hidden behind the CO2 fallacy.

Certainly, Africa is the continent par excellence where the climate change can be more evidently attested. But there is no scholarly proof that the CO2 emissions are the principal reason for the devastating environmental collapse. In this regard, recent studies and reports made it clear that the reasons for which the colonial diplomacies support this fallacy are all due to new plans for another bubble in the world’s stock exchanges.

There is no doubt that the Western economies are at the brink of total disintegration and collapse. This is inevitable because of the paranoia that pushed the West’s economic elites to the formation a fake economic circle, namely the derivatives that have been launched in the 80s. For several centuries of capitalist economy, the stock exchanges used to reflect the real economy which evolved around production. The financial products launched in the 80s produced a bubble that exists antagonistically with the real economy, driving it to total dismantlement.

Following the economic contraction, the world’s economic elites put all their hopes for a new lucrative (for them) bubble on a trillion dollar carbon trading system that will use the ecological concerns and the misguided efforts for supposed environmental improvement in order to draw investors to carbon-related derivatives.

One can guess the disappointment of the world’s evil financial elites through many recent publications in the global mass media: http://www.globeinvestor.com/servlet/story/GAM.20091216.IBCREDITS16ART1924/GIStory/.

Carbon ? related derivatives: Ominous for all Africans

As a matter of fact, carbon-related derivatives is the main enemy of all the African nations. The fake financial products will be traded in Derivatives Exchanges allover the world to empower the world’s financers to further persecute the oppressed peoples allover the world and to effectively strengthen local dictators in Africa, Asia and Latin America. It will be the fresh cash that the gangsters of England, France and the pro-colonial, Freemasonic establishment of America simply do not have now!

The Copenhagen-related disappointment of the Canadian media is in this regard great: http://www.inews880.com/News/National/Article.aspx?id=169994. This constitutes a mere example. In fact, the need of the world’s financial elite for fresh cash (in trillions of fake money) is dramatic.

A few days ago, Prof. Michel Chossudovsky underscored the dangers ensuing from the institutionalization of such a trading system that will make the world’s poor poorer and the world’s rich richer. In his ‘Climate Change: What is the Hidden Agenda?’ (www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=16514, December 12, 2009), he wrote:

“We bring to the attention of our readers, an archive of opinion, news, and analysis on the issue of Global Warming, which is currently being debated in Copenhagen under the auspices of the UN Framework Agreement on Climate Change.

The corporate media, in chorus, is calling upon public opinion to endorse the Global Warming consensus, which supports a multibillion dollar carbon trading system.

CO2 emissions are heralded in the editorial as the single and most important threat to the future of humanity.

The evidence that CO2 is the sole cause of Global Warming is questionable, as revealed by numerous scientific studies.

This archive on Climate Change published by Global Research brings together a vast body of critique, analysis and opinion regarding the Climate Change.

What is the hidden agenda behind the Copenhagen CO15 Summit?

The governments of NATO countries act on behalf of the interests of the financial establishment, the oil companies and the defense contractors. The Global Warming consensus is being used to justify a lucrative multibillion carbon trading scheme which seeks to enrich corporations and financial institutions to the detriment of the developing countries.

This carbon trading scheme does not serve the interests of social justice. Quite the opposite.

While we share the concerns of the environmentalists, there is no reason to uphold something which is untrue or questionable to reach stated environmental goals.

Reducing toxic manmade emissions, preserving biodiversity, protecting wildlife and preventing deforestation are objectives in their own right. The implementation of an environmental program geared explicitly towards reducing environmental contamination and pollution at the national and international levels requires neither the Global Warming Consensus, nor a profit driven carbon trading system”.

China

For China it is vital to put as many obstacles as possible to the new financial scheme. Carbon related derivatives will lead to a new wave of American consumerism, which will burden China with an even greater surplus in foreign currency. This does not necessarily mean that China will have the upper hand; on the contrary, the development would make China more dependent on the US. Full dependence of China on America is the Wall Street elite foremost dream.

Averting the trillion dollar carbon scheme is certainly not enough for China! Particularly in view of the ongoing travel of the U.S. Special Envoy to Sudan Scott Gration (http://www.africom.mil/getArticle.asp?art=3797&lang=0) to Khartoum and Juba, the increasing US interest in the Horn of Africa, and the anticipated US ? EU use of the political trickery “Islamic Extremism” in the years ahead, China should greatly reassess and adequately readjust its approach to Africa before Beijing finds itself confronted with the US tactics of faits accomplis.

Beijing must come to terms with the African realities and with the fact that never Chinese influence and penetration will be permanent in a country that has been a colonial fabrication. Meles Zenawi’s willingness to offer his capital city as the location of the AFRICOM headquarters is in this case indicative; for a moment he flirted with China, but then the racist Amhara – Tigray establishment of Abyssinia (fallaciously re-baptized ‘Ethiopia’) turned to Washington again.

It is urgent therefore for China to turn to the real forces of Africa, the tyrannized African nations who struggle for national independence, political freedom and cultural integrity, and not Africa’s colonially enslaved elites. Supporting liberation fronts and helping various African peoples shape independent countries is the only way for Beijing to outmaneuver the catastrophic work carried out by the colonial powers on African soil.

Ogaden

Ogaden is a first example. A sizeable territory (280000 km2) where 6 millions of Somalis have been engulfed, imprisoned and persecuted in all possible manners because of the ominous English colonialism that ended up in ulcerous anti-Somali racism and vicious political practices. In fact, the entire territory of Ogaden became a gift offered to the bloodthirsty and barbaric Amhara Abyssinian despot, Haile Selassie, because of his siding with England in the East Africa colonial game.

With rich soil, great natural resources, and a well educated Ogadeni Diaspora, an independent Ogaden Republic will be China’s key economic and political partner, and more importantly, it will be a partner deprived of tergiversations and hesitations. The brave people of Ogaden, the active Ogadeni Diaspora, and the Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF) are the key for China’s need for peace and national unity in Somalia.

China’s accurate understanding of the Asiatic landmass geopolitical games of England and America must help in shaping China’s new African policy. Afghanistan is a matter of concern for China’s national security. The US-led foreign armies in Afghanistan created a havoc after eight (8) years of inexplicably unending and truly speaking fake war against phantasms of extremism. What brought these armies there? This is known: September 11th. An event that more and more people allover the world refuse to take at face value and consider merely as a scheme of the US militaristic establishment.

Another September 11th may happen at any time. Those who expect it grow more numerous day by day. It can be possibly attributed to the Shabaab of Somalia who control the southern parts of Somalia, having got great help in terms of logistics from the US and their puppet, the tyrannical Kikuyu regime of Nairobi.

Another September 11th would be an excellent pretext for the US forces to occupy on permanent basis part of the geo-strategically very important territory of Somalia. Such a development would not only herald the beginning of the end of China’s penetration in Africa. It would also herald doubts about the possibility of China to effectively defend its national territory from nuclear attacks.

I will expand on this subject in several forthcoming articles but here I merely add two reports on recent demonstrations organized by the Ogadeni Diaspora in Copenhagen.

Members of the Danish Ogaden Community Demonstrate Outside the UN Climate Change Conference

Copenhagen, Denmark ? December 17. Protestors from Denmark’s Ogaden Community demonstrate outside the UN climate change conference on December 17, 2009 in Copenhagen, Denmark. The group were demonstrating against Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi participating in the COP15 United Nations Climate Change Conference, claiming that he has one of the worst environmental records in the history of Ethiopia and that he has no respect for fundamental human rights.

Members of the European Ogaden Community Demonstrate Against Meles Zenawi

Dozens of Ogaden and Oromo communities in Europe demonstrated outside the UN climate change conference on December 17-18, 2009 in Copenhagen, Denmark. The group were demonstrating against Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi participating in the COP15 United Nations Climate Change Conference. Meles Zenawi is one of the worst environmental records in the history of Ethiopia and that he has no respect for fundamental human rights.

Waving the Ogaden National flag, the protestors chanted Meles belongs at the Hague for trial at the International Criminal Court (ICC) instead of being honored as a spokesman for all African nations at the global conference this week. Members of the Ogaden community accused Meles Zenawi of committing genocide in the Ogaden.

Many African countries seek financial compensation for the continent in order to combat climate change. Recently, some African groups opposed a deal between Meles and European leaders.

The Ogaden people are fighting for self-determination. Extra-judicial killings, rape, disappearances, destruction of livelihood and the displacement of thousands of Ogaden people are the daily norm in Ogaden.

There is constant fighting between Ethiopian troops and ONLF forces in the Ogaden region. Human rights organizations accuse the Ethiopian soldiers of violating the human rights by harassing the people in the Ogaden region.

Animals Skinned Alive: Inside The Brutal Chinese Fur-Trade

Tags: , , , , , , , ,


Peta.Org Reports: When undercover investigators made their way onto Chinese fur farms, they found that many animals are still alive and struggling desperately when workers flip them onto their backs or hang them up by their legs or tails to skin them. When workers on these farms begin to cut the skin and fur from an animal’s leg, the free limbs kick and writhe. Workers stomp on the necks and heads of animals who struggle too hard to allow a clean cut.


Pledge to go fur-free at PETA.org.

When the fur is finally peeled off over the animals’ heads, their naked, bloody bodies are thrown onto a pile of those who have gone before them. Some are still alive, breathing in ragged gasps and blinking slowly. Some of the animals’ hearts are still beating five to 10 minutes after they are skinned. One investigator recorded a skinned raccoon dog on the heap of carcasses who had enough strength to lift his bloodied head and stare into the camera.

Before they are skinned alive, animals are pulled from their cages and thrown to the ground; workers bludgeon them with metal rods or slam them on hard surfaces, causing broken bones and convulsions but not always immediate death. Animals watch helplessly as workers make their way down the row. [ READ MORE ]

Palin’s Pathetic Poke At Global Politics: What Has Sarah Learned in a Year?

Tags: , , , , , , ,


Is this woman just cashing in — to make as much money as possible, or is she serious in believing that the SANE section of America can elect a piece of crap like her?

Sarah, The “TURKEY KILLA” went to Hong Kong and gave a speech to “COMMUNISTS,” unless you are stupid enough to think that China will ever let go of Hong Kong.

I don’t care how well this bimbo is coached — the damage is done, and just like in the five colleges she attended before getting her degree in “Journalism“, she will graduate with an “Open Book Open Notes” political degree. American colleges are notorious for manufacturing such “watery” graduates.

The Poison Dwarf

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


   Columnist – John Sammon
Columnist - John Sammon. Click to view larger picture.Why does North Korea do this?

Because it works.

North Korea’s testing of a nuclear weapon is the same old stick and carrot approach North Korea always uses. Again and again. They get away with it. Again and again.

Each time they do, it’s like a repeat, an exact copy of the way they did it before, the last crisis they caused, just the same way. A repeat. Like another little Munich crisis, recalling when gullible European leaders attempted to reason with and appease Hitler, and in selling away the sovereignty of Czechoslovakia, brought them all another step closer to war.

Here’s how it works.

Every time.

A.    North Korea announces to the world it will test a nuclear weapon, or a delivery system for the weapon (missile).

B.    The world, four-fifths of it, protests. Nothing is done.

C.    Despite protests, North Korea tests the weapon, or missile, which works better (more improved) every time.

D.    The world, four-fifths of it, protests again, after the test.

E.    North Korea then threatens war (the stick in the stick and carrot) if economic sanctions are taken against it.

F.    China and Russia veto possible economic embargo action by the UN against their former client state (North Korea).

G.    North Korea gets away with it, and keeps building a bomb and a missile to deliver it.

H.    When things get tense to the breaking point, sometimes, North Korea makes some kind of vague statement about the desire for peace, and renewed talks, even though they have violated past agreements with the precision of a Swiss clock (that’s the carrot in the stick and carrot).

Kim-Jong-il -- Blackmailing The WorldMeanwhile, the idiotic policy of the former moronic president, George Bush, to seek a winless 40-year war in the Middle East by fighting ragged insurgents who don’t have a bomb, and ignore a country that is openly building one in violation of all previous agreements, continues to suck up lives and treasure and focus.

The legacy of the moron Bush was to fixate on the wrong enemy. If we ignore the criminal immorality of his regime and look at it strategically, Bush was the worst strategist since Benito Mussolini.

It makes sense. Doesn’t it make sense? Let’s ignore the gravest threat to world peace in the world and instead waste time, money and lives trying to pry vagabonds out of mountain caves in rural Afghanistan.

North Korea advances step by step.

The trump cards are Russia and China. Just as they did during the Korean War in 1951, Russia and China give North Korea power, by vetoing any attempt at the UN to rein in the mad dog (North Korea) by using economic or embargo sanctions.

Successive presidents starting with Richard Nixon and including Bill Clinton and the Bush boys have deluded themselves that Russia and China are our friends, when they are not. They are dictatorships masquerading as democracies.

They will continue to block any opposition to North Korea in the UN. The lunatic foaming at the mouth in Pyongyang knows this.

What will Obama do? That’s going to be interesting to see.

I predict a new to-the-brink-of-Armageddon crisis over North Korea that will be much like the 1962 Cuban Missile crisis, when the world came within a hair’s breath of turning itself into fused glass. Only this time, the finger on the trigger (the North Korean finger) will be more unstable than Khrushchev was in 1962.

On that note, to readers of Politicalarticles.net, I say, happy Memorial Day.

CNN: S. Korea to join a U.S.-led effort to crack down on trafficking in WMDs, while U.N. Security Council condemns nuclear test as a “clear violation” of U.N. resolutions. Ally China urges North Korea to return to disarmament talks. United States says North Korea’s nuclear test was “grave violation” of law. [ READ MORE ]

China to Reach Out to Somalia’s Islamic Opposition

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


One of the most critical aspects of the Horn of Africa crisis concerns China. In fact, it has little to do with China’s merely quantitative presence in the African continent. The economic – technological presence and significance of China in Africa have already been noticed and commented, but this type of achievement, albeit important at the commercial level, has no political consequences, let alone global dimensions.

China must realize that its presence in Africa, although necessary for the country’s needs in terms of resources, exports, commercial partners, and economic penetration, has not yet reached the level of political influence, military involvement, and determinant geo-political impact.

It is essential for Beijing to understand, when it comes to China’s global presence and prevalence, that this critical affair has little to do with the volume of exports and imports and with a veto in the Security Council votes.

In Africa, China finds itself opposed to ca. 250 years of European colonialism which led to the formation of postcolonial regimes that – in order to be totally submitted to the interests, the plans, and the needs of England and France – are by nature totalitarian, racist, criminal, corrupt, and mostly inhuman.

The interaction of all these corrupt and totalitarian regimes of Africa is – in and by itself – another dimension of colonial involvement and perfidy. Below is an example:

1. England and France (plus the US, as a neophyte in the postcolonial era) are behind the support offered to the criminal state Abyssinia (that colonial English and French scholars explained to the idiotic and ignorant Amhara rulers why it should be renamed as ‘Ethiopia’ in order to contribute to the performance of 14 genocides against the subjugated Kushitic and Nilo-Saharan nations).

2. England and France (plus the US) are behind the destructive work perpetrated since 1991 against the Somali Nation that does not suit the colonial plans for Eastern Africa.

3. Last but not least, England and France (plus the US) are behind the Abyssinian invasion of part of the Somali territory (in December 2006) and behind the withdrawal of the defeated Abyssinian army.

How could China outmaneuver this complot?

Rejecting the false lenses made available by Western mass media of global disinformation is a first critical step to take. China must offer itself an accurate, holistic, balanced and fair perception of the developments throughout the African continent.

Otherwise, every evaluation will hinge on false data and prefabricated images that the perfidious, criminal powers of the Colonial West have done their ingenious best to overwhelmingly diffuse and successfully ensure that their potential challenges (China, India, Russia, Brazil, Japan, Germany, Italy, the Islamic World, African Liberation movements and fronts) never get the entire picture correctly.

China and Somalia in 1900 – Equally Targeted by Perfidious, Colonial England

Demonizing rivals and targets has always been a favorable method of the colonial powers; before 100 years, in the then targeted Somalia (1899 – 1905), Mohamed Abdullah Hassan had become just the “mad mullah“; he was not “mad” and his identity of mullah represents only a minor aspect of his great personality of intellectual, mystic, Islamic theoretician, social transformer and political leader and liberator.

Chinese can understand very well why the great visionary of the Somali Nation Mohamed Abdullah Hassan, honorably called As Sayid by all the Somalis, became a “mad mullah” for the criminal colonial gangsters of England.

Because he opposed the use of khat chewing which was greatly promoted and diffused by the English in order to engulf the local populations to social decay, political decadence, religious digression, and national decomposition.

China was equally targeted by the monstrous, inhuman and criminal gangsters, the English and the French, at those days. To colonize the Chinese, the perfidious colonial powers devised several methods one of which was the diffusion, throughout China, of opium produced in occupied India. China was constrained to defend its national integrity in successive Opium wars (1839 – 42, 1856 – 60); the evil English practice triggered the overwhelming reaction of the Chinese people as evidenced in events such as the Taiping Revolution (1850 – 64) and the Boxer Revolution (1899 – 1901).

To help Somali readership be better acquainted with the English Anti-Chinese hysteria and felony, I merely state here that the aforementioned glorious event is only conventionally called “Boxer Revolution.” In fact, the Boxers were called by themselves after the noble association that they had established, namely “Boxer Revolution” (Yihe tuan). Boxers is a pejorative term that could not have been devised but by a monstrous and criminal elite of gangsters like that of England.

Mohamed Abdullah Hassan: “Mad Mullah” or the Somali Boxer?

For both, Chinese and Somalis, to learn better the common identity of their righteous cause, I can merely say that Mohamed Abdullah Hassan (the ‘mad mullah‘ of the English colonial gangsters) was a …. Somali Boxer.

And the splendid ideals, the humanist goals, the peaceful mind, and the noble vision of the Righteous Harmony Society Movement in China were absolutely identical with those of the Saalihiya Order which was diffused among the Somalis by Mohamed Abdullah Hassan.

Mohamed Abdullah Hassan was criminally labeled “mad” by the English because he did not accept that evil and hypocritical “missionaries”, under the pretext of “help” offered to Somali orphans at Daymoole, should be allowed to attempt to diffuse – in a most immoral, shameful and camouflaged way – their Christian faith.

In the same way, the Boxers’ rightful denunciation of the disastrous work made in China by Western missionaries was labeled by the English as ‘Anti-Christian’.

For the viciously Anti-Christian, Freemasonic regime of England, which caused the greatest possible damages to Catholic Christianity (notably through their Anglican heresy), it is just ludicrous to introduce pejorative terms for other nations, parties and persons who happened to have attempted what the English did try for themselves in the first place, namely to stay apart of foreign control, foreign faith, and external influence.

This is the natural evilness of the English historiographers, intellectuals, diplomats and journalists:

If the “mad” mullah had accepted the duplicitous, concealed and criminal effort of the “missionaries” to Christianize Somalia, he would not be ….. “mad.

Today, this “logic” threatens Somalia, China, and the entire world. It is the same inhuman attitude displayed before 100 years in both, China and Somalia; to speak frankly, it is the paranoia of the rapist who tries to appear as possibly innocent and credibly righteous.

What about today’s English regime of Inhuman Freemasonry?

Will they accept the Somali sheikhs Hassan Dahir Aweys, Hassan Turki, and Mukhtar Robow to …. leave Somalia for a while, move to England, visit the poor, unemployed and needy English, and proselytize them to Islam “that would solve all their problems”?

Just like the “missionaries” at Daymoole, Somalia, who made the local orphans say in 1897 that “they belonged to the clan of the (Christian) Fathers”, today’s impoverished English may wish to belong to the Nation of the Muslims. What about a scenario like this?

The use of the pejorative adjectives was never a matter of sparing concern among the English and the French colonials and within the circle of the world mass media that they have been customarily bribed and unreservedly corrupted.

It is certainly more convenient for them now to avoid the term “mad” and put all the stakes on adjectives and nouns like the following: “hard line”, “fanatic”, “radical”, “extremist” and “terrorist.”

China Cannot Afford Anymore the Fallacious Western Interpretations of Events

Simply, this situation cannot be afforded anymore by China. Because all the Somali “hard liners”, “fanatics”, “radicals”, “extremists” and “terrorists”, namely the sheikhs Hassan Dahir Aweys, Hassan Turki, and Mukhtar Robow, are today’s Somalia’s Righteous Harmony Society Movement.

Today’s Somalia’s Boxers Movement provides for peace, concord, serenity, national integrity, cultural authenticity, resolute commitment to Somalia’s re-edification and rehabilitation. To the full consternation of the English, French, and American colonials.

To focus on some isolated cases of literal implementation of Sharia Law in Kismayu and elsewhere is certainly purposeless.

These people suffered tremendously at the times of the Abyssinian occupation for which the evil colonial regimes of London and Washington are fully responsible.

These people saw the criminal gangster Jendayi Frazer shamelessly consider the Ogaden 2007 Genocide as an internal affair of the monstrous racist regime of Abysssinia; you cannot expect them to react like Confucius or some Greek Stoic philosophers. They view the excesses of their jurisdiction as the much needed underscoring of their opposition to the evil deeds of the Anti-Somali colonials; this is a sentimental stance, not a political approach. It will not continue for long after the so loathed AMISOM soldiers go, and the perspective of free constitutional elections comes closer.

China has many reasons – beyond a definite historical solidarity – to stretch a hand to the Somali Opposition, establish a contact with them, and thus acquire a firm basis in Eastern Africa. This I will extensively analyze in a forthcoming article.
