[A-List] [Imperialist hypocrisy] "Internat'l Day of Refugees"

["Nestor Gorojovsky" <nestorgoro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

["This is where the rocket will come out from, and put the powderkegs 
on fire", said Lord Shuvalov -a rare Austro-Hungarian aristocrat with 
strategic vision- about the areas over which L. Kossuth, the 
Hungarian poet, saw "a bird, prophet of death" soaring.  The place 
was Bosnia-Herzegovina.  The year, 1881.  Less than 30 years later, 
First World War began at the very heart of the region: Sarajevo.  

As from what follows, today's victorious march of European 
imperialists on Central, Eastern and South Eastern Europe may 
forecast a similar future for world capitalism as a whole.  Not 
everybody seems happy with what has been happening during the last 15 
years.]

DELIBERATELY IMPOSED
NON-DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS AND STRATEGIES - 
THE GREATEST CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY AND A MAJOR THREAT
TO CIVILIZED LIFE ON EARTH


June 29th in Bulgaria - like in many other places in the world - was 
more or less widely marked and celebrated as the International Day of 
Refugees. Speeches and talks over TV channels and other media, 
concerts in the parks, cookies, candies and balloons for the children 
were supposed to show understanding and compassion with the dismal 
fate of hundreds of thousands of people from the countries in Africa, 
Asia and elsewhere who are continuously leaving their homes and their 
lands of birth in a search of a safer dwelling and living for 
themselves and their families.

Many words of supposedly good feelings and good intentions were said. 
Meanwhile it was noted that most of the money for the support of the 
refugees in Bulgaria is coming from the so-called NGOs. And the money 
for the WELL-FUNCTIONING NGOs here (as everywhere else!) is coming 
mostly from. various Institutions and Agencies in the USA and the 
West.

How GENEROUS and HUMANE on their side to remember on that day those 
multitudes of forcibly displaced people throughout the world and to 
offer them some verbal or "pocket-money" consolation for their tragic 
lot! And - HOW NOBLE on the part of UN and the other respective 
International Organizations to introduce such a World Refugee Day!

At the same time it brings however also the sad memories of a number 
of other, equally UNHAPPY International Days (and Holidays!) that 
have been somehow instituted and accepted as a kind of a VERY ROUTINE 
practice recently.

The International Day of POVERTY, the International Day of HUNGER, 
the International Day of UNEMPLOYMENT, the international Day of 
CHILDREN'S MORTALITY are just some of the Headlines in a long list 
that can be made even longer.

PEIOPLE WITH MEMORY may also remember times when such HOLIDAYS simply 
DID NOT EXIST! It was not because such phenomena were completely 
ALIEN or even UNKNOWN throughout the history of Humanity or that it 
had been less susceptible, compassionate or capable of understanding 
them.

The FUNDAMENTAL DIFFERENCE between the world of today and the world 
of 40-50 years ago was that in those DAYS THEN there was both a 
WIDESPREAD BELIEF AND DETERMINATION that all those, mildly speaking, 
UNPLEASANT THINGS AND INJUSTICES could be done away with and SHOULD 
BE ERADICATED from the life of Humanity. And there was also the 
necessary POTENTIAL - both economic, technological or human for doing 
so.

What was completely lacking however was the necessary GOOD WILL to 
encourage all those countries and nations of Africa, Asia and 
elsewhere to find their own adequate ways and means of developing 
their own resources and potential for their own good. More than that, 
even more apparent in the course of time, was the strong 
determination on the side of the former colonial masters (and USA!) 
NOT to allow any move towards whatever form of GENUINE SOCIAL AND 
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT in the "newly-liberated countries" from which 
they formally withdrew a couple of decades after the World War II. 
All those nations were not only progressively deprived of their 
riches and natural resources, but also got incorporated into a 
massively destructive NON-DEVELOPMENT "neocolonial" scheme which was 
started almost immediately with their formal independence. As time 
was passing by, the sad results of this DEVASTATING SCHEME were 
becoming - and are getting! - more and more apparent and vivid.

For decades before that practically the same NON-DEVELOPMENT 
"neocolonial" scheme was widely practiced in the "Latin American 
backyard" of the USA. The many FREE AND INDEPENDENT republics of 
that, no doubt rich and large subcontinent, could flutter their 
picturesque national flags and perform their national songs and 
dances as long as they wished. Their puppet armies could majestically 
march on National Day, beat their drums and make operetta-style 
maneuvers in the open. Corrupt ruling "elites" could waste as much of 
the national wealth and assets as possible on parasitic spending both 
for themselves and their families. Most luxurious imported cars, 
shining offices and palaces, overpaid prostitutes - all those EXTRAS 
of Power were lavishly allowed, tolerated and even encouraged.

The only thing UNCONDITIONALLY FORBIDDEN, however, was ANY THOUGHT or 
even intention of a somehow GENUINE DEVELOPMENT of the economy and 
the productive potential of the country that may have lasting 
positive implications on the standards of living and may contribute 
for a more dignified present and future of its people.

In case of a certain VIOLATIONS of this SCHEME, the local puppet army 
would be requested, for example, to HAVE A MARCH from their barracks 
to the President'' office to RESTORE ORDER. If the CASE is GRAVE, 
then a more substantial military intervention of the "Big Brother" 
from ABROAD is willingly organized.

As it was already noted, this SCHEME was successfully practiced in 
the "South American backyard" of the USA for a number of decades 
before World War II. After it that SCHEME was almost as SUCCESFULLY 
spread over most of the so-called "newly-liberated countries" of the 
former colonial empires.

Those who for one reason or another did not follow the NON-
DEVELOPMENT NEO-COLONIALISTIC SCHEME were quickly proclaimed 
"COMUNISTIC" which meant that a WORLDWIDE COLONIAL CAPITALISTIC 
CRUSADE was starting on them. That was the case, for example, with 
President Hecobo Arbens of Guatemala. In 1953 his country did not 
have any relations whatsoever with the USSR of those days. In 1953 
he, however, decided to use for national purposes some of the lands, 
which the USA's "United Fruit Company" failed to cultivate. The 
result was a CIA military intervention and 200,000 civilian 
casualties in this small country.

Patrice Lumumba, the First Prime Minister of FREE Kongo, was killed 
in January 1961, some six months after he declared the Independence 
of the country and . the intention of his Government to nationalize 
the diamond mines of Union Miniere de Katanga (the same Belgian-owned 
monopoly that has moved in Bulgaria in 1997 and took grip of the 
Bulgarian copper-gold producing industry!.)

Aliende in Chile also DARED to start a national production in several 
industries for which he paid with his life in the CIA monitored 
military coup on September 11, 1973.

These are just few of the more than 200 acts of open military 
interventions that the USA and the West in general had initiated in 
various countries of the so-called "Third World". Countries that in 
one way or another had tried to get free from the NON-DEVELOPMENT 
grip imposed on them after they were so LAVISHLY granted their FORMAL 
independence.

All those awful human tragedies - the terrible poverty, the striking 
infant mortality, the thousands and millions of displaced people and 
refugees inside these countries and out of them to the rest of the 
world - are simply the PLANNED AND DESIRED RESULTS OF THOSE SAME NON-
DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES. The STARTEGIES that the RICH, CLEVER AND 
DEMOCRATIC WESTERN POWERS HAD IMPOSED ON THESE COUNTRIES, TAKING CARE 
THAT THEIR VICTIMS IN NO WAY GET RID OF THEM.

After 1989 Eastern Europe (present-day Russia included!) had also 
been incorporated in that very SCHEME. Yugoslavia tried to resist and 
became a target of brutal military aggression. Its President Slobodan 
Milosevic was stained as "ultra-nationalist" and "beast-enemy of 
Humanity", and was criminally abducted to Hague by the criminal local 
servants of the "New World Order".

USA started also a merciless and most inhuman war that is still on 
against the people and the state of Iraq whose Government under 
President Saddam Hussein was following for a number of decades a 
policy of national development of the productive potential of the 
country. Now Iraq is totally destroyed by the WESTERN LIBERATORS and 
the people who dared to initiate such policies are qualified as 
"CRIMINALS". Most probably they will suffer the "mercy of the 
victors" very soon.

Nothing new and everything is logical. It was a commonplace practice 
in ancient Rome and elsewhere. It was a common practice to crucify 
ALL THE PARTICIPANTS after the defeat of a slave revolt: not a shred 
of memory for the Days of Freedom and the possibility of Good Life 
should be left behind!

The SAME OLD PATTERN OF SLAVERY reigns nowadays too! Those who have 
accumulated their riches through SLAVERY in the proceeding centuries, 
obviously have NOT forgotten that SLAVERY is the MOST EFFECTIVE WAY 
of going on being WEALTHY AND SUCCESSFUL in the present-day and near-
future world as well!
