Real Axis

The US has just recently made the decision to attend talks with Iran over the 'nuclear' issue, something the US refused to do previously because Iran was said to be part of the Axis of Evil. The Real Axis of Evil is today's western triumvirate of the US, the UK and France. All three have attacked African, Asian and middle-East countries and even some others as well at one time or another or continuously since the end of WW2. Iran is working towards power generation through nuclear fission, and there is no evidence that there is a 'bomb' in the making, so it is extremely evil of the West to judge and condemn the country without a proper 'trial' where the required evidence could be duly presented. The US knows that using lies and half-truths to force its view is not going to work in this particular case, especially now that Afghanistan has started to feature so prominently in US military policy. More troops are needed in Kabul, but sending supplies to meet their needs is beginning to become a vexing problem. The supply routes that go through Pakistan are now getting exposed to increasing militia attacks and the one in Kyrgyzstan is facing closure. So, the White House has now decided to talk with Iran. Perhaps a new supply route could be obtained, one that goes through Iranian territory. What cunning deviousness. The US has never been known for sincere conduct or behaviour in its dealings with others. Obama is really not that much different from Bush. Every country has the right to build a nuclear power plant as long as it could afford to do so. There is no ground for other nations to oppose it and certainly there is even less ground for others to falsely accuse a certain country of trying to build atomic weapons without obtaining proof of it. In Iran's case the accusation was borne put of mere suspicion and bad espionage on the part of the West. In any case, the West should not hide from the fact that they are the ones who are most deserving of criticism in nuclearrelated issues. The West were the ones who pioneered the socalled 'atoms-for-peace' program that helped to raise interest in nuclear power plants. Unfortunately, US political puppets in many areas, including Persia, never lasted as long as the atomic interest. What goes round comes round. Also, the West, especially the US and France, have always been unreceptive to the idea of a world without nuclear weapons. The US is always fearful that without nuclear weapons, the country would surely one day cease to be the bully-boy of the globe as other nations obtained parity in conventional arms. Without that status, the US would no longer be able to dictate terms to the others as it pleased. Even the idea of no-first-use is unacceptable to the Americans. No nation should use a nuclear weapon against another nation except in retaliation for a surprise nuclear attack but this has never been acceptable by NATO. This military monster wants its nuclear arsenal to balance out the supposedly conventional

superiority of its potential adversaries but now, this argument no longer holds water. Today, the West has the world's mightiest conventional war machines. The West ought to be honest with the rest of the world and start the ball rolling. Should the world get rid of all nuclear arsenals and ban the keeping of such weapons in any country ( unlike the smallpox virus) or should the world forbid all countries from ever unleashing a first-strike nuclear attack ? These are the pertinent issues that need to be discussed by the entire world. And not the alleged wrongdoing by Iran. Iran's allies in the Security Council must stand firm against any trickery by the West to paint the country as evil because the real evil is only found within the accuser and no one else. The real axis of evil is made up of Paris, London and Washington. The monsters who threaten world peace truly reside in these cities.
