The Gulf Crisis and New World Order — Page 257
The Gulf Crisis & The New World Order fairplay, one Nasser after another and one Saddam after another will continue to emerge. This is the decree of God and it remai ns immutable! The bombardment on Iraq has been so dreadful and on such a gigantic scale that the bombardment carried out in the entire Second World War pales into insignificance. In the Second World War 2,700,000 tons of bombs were dropped in six years. In Iraq, 150,000 tons of bombs were dropped in less than five weeks. From these figures you can imagine the fury with which Iraq is being smashed. The West makes no attempt to comprehend human nature. The West fails to realize that such a bombardment creates the climate for the germination of more Saddams, not only among young Arabs but also among other non-Arab Muslims. There are many among the younger generation who are watching the situation and as a reaction, have made up their mind about their future actions. So to expect the sweet fruit of peace from such bombardment is the height of ignorance. Hate always begets hate. What is cause of this hatred? So long as the root cause of what it is which creates people like Saddams and Nassers is not determined, and so long as the seed of bated is not uprooted, no peace can exist in this region. ISRAELI MOTIVES As far as I have observed, and facts bear me out that the establishment of Israel is indeed the root cause of the beginning of all this strife and hate. The waging of wars is among the aims in the concept and creation of Israel. I am not saying this on my own; David Ben Gurion, the founding father of Israel, also claims so. I will read to you from 'The Making of Israel' by James Cameron: On page 55 he writes: "For Ben Gurion the word state, had now no meaning other than an instrument of war. I can think ofno other meaning now, he said. . . I feel that the wisdom of Israel now is that to wage war, that and nothing else, that and only that. " This reminds me of two lines by Coleridge in Kubla Khan, when he writes: "And amid this tumult Kubla heard from far ancestral voices prophesying War!" 257
