he made clear in his West Point speech, President
Obama is poised to use the escalation of the
Afghan War as an excuse to further escalate the
Pakistan War as well. Since taking office he has
dramatically increased the number and severity of
the drone strikes against northern Pakistan and is
being pressed to expand the strikes into
Baluchistan. According to Webster G. Tarpley, the
most immediate goal of Obama’s Great Game
strategy in this region is the dismemberment of
both Afghanistan and Pakistan by fomenting a

banning minarets a fortnight ago, Switzerland has
turned the spotlight on the double-standards of
lofty Western principles when they are applied to
minorities. The vote was a declaration of hatred,
a pledge of hostility to Islam and Muslims, and an
admission of Europe’s belief that Islam is a
threat. Living as second-class citizens, Muslims
are learning from firsthand experience that
Western democracy can be invoked and manipulated
to deprive them of their rights, identity and

in Oslo. The man who is pursuing two wars of
aggression in Iraq and Afghanistan at the helm of
the most powerful military complex in history,
