Editorial: Iraq's Pandora's Box

THE Blitzkrieg in Iraq has opened the world's modern Pandora's Box that will haunt mankind for years to come.

The invasion forces (Basically English), or Great Britain, the United States and Australia, all trace the same roots. The invasion is a Modern Day effort to expand the waning English or British Empire.

Television footages and newspaper reports are not enough to clarify to the world the ramification of the invasion for all to realize. Suffice it to say that the invasion has placed the existence of the United Nations in Peril.

The United States has opened the floodgates of military adventurism, which a weak United Nation can not stop anymore. The first nation to take advantage of this UN weakness in Turkey who demands that its troop occupy Northern Iraq in return for US use of its bases.

The Turks and the Kurds are mortal enemies and when they clash- no one will be there to stop the orgy.

From its inception as a League of Nations, this gathering of world leaders has failed to stop the wars in Vietnam, the Balkan region, launched by Western powers to control the world.

The Refusal of the United States to abide by UN resolution has set a bad precedent for other power hungry nations to engage in their own adventure to gobble up weak states.

Turkey (of the Ottoman Empire) has started. Other former potential world powers like Germany, France, Spain, Japan are waiting on the sidelines to start their own mini conquests of the world.

All because the United States wanted a shot at the former Babylonian Empire.
