Hostage-taking
in Beslan: Islamistic barbarism and imperialist backgrounds
But most of the statements in
the West, suspicuously deflecting the questions, continue to evade the
confrontation with the Islamic-Chechen terror and its international backgrounds,
and often go into the direction of showing the Russian government in an
unfavorable light and of pinning at least part of the responsibility on
it for what has happened. The responsibility of the Islamistic fundamentalist
milieus and their undercover supporters in the international upper classes,
however, is not a subject. This goes from the ever-repeated, more or less
open claims for more concessions to the so-called Chechen struggle for
independence, over the perverse attempts to sollicit pychological empathy
with the mentality of the murderers of children, to the criticism of the
military and police units on-site and their leadership in the Russian
authorities. Sometimes this way of representation borders to what the
terrorists and those behind them are wishing: that a Russian government
which resists them must disappear. In contrast, we must again, as
in the previous cases of barbaric acts of Islamistic terrorism, recall
some backgrounds, which are again being obscured in the present commentaries,
and probably less because of lacking knowledge than because of political
interests: - in the case of the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 in the US and
the resistance against the US’ goverment’s desinformation,
numerous uncoverings were made which proved the decade-long construction
of international Islamistic terrorist networks like Al-Kaeda, for example,
from the part of US secret services themselves for subversive purposes
in many regions of the world. Also the authorities of other countries
as Germany, for example, have substantially taken part in furthering Islamistic
fundamentalism. - It was politically proven,
too, that such terrorist acts as of Sept. 11, which from a superficial
point of view were directed against the US, actually were of no minor
political avail for the US oligarchy’s policy of military intervention,
threat and blackmailing, and are accordingly being instrumentalised. The
US also threatens other countries on the quiet with the possibility of
such teroristic acts, in case they do not comply with the US’ wishes.
Without the Twin Towers’ desaster the US would hardly have got the
military bases in Afghanistan and Central Asia and the destruction of
Iraq within three years. Also for the reorientation of the military policy
of the rest of the NATO countries, Germany included, the so-called war
on terrorism has a fostering role to play. There is some kind of fundamental
teamwork, however loudly the Islamists may shout in public “Down
with the West”. - As for the so-called Chechen
struggle for independence, which has been propagated by Western media
and politicians since the beginning of the nineties, it is obvious that
it is carried by Islamistic-terrorist squads, parts of which have directly
undergone the Afghan school of the CIA and its allies like the Saudis
and Pakistan. Even if it would be only about that,
the forces in the background in the US and also the politicians
and commentators in our country, who time and again have advocated the
“Chechen” cause, bear responsibility for what today has happened.
And furthermore it is obvious that the US and the NATO alliance, remarkably
openly, are since long busy to utilize turmoil in the Caucasus in order
to gain political influence, bases for the military and the secret services
there, and to build strategical positions particularly from this direction
for attacks against Russia in the future. In that it is also about oil,
of course, but actually about much more. However scatty, brutal and corrupt
the Russian forces may be, which are working against this policy in the
Caucasus, basically Russia’s struggle for its territorial integrity
remains justified, and even the miserable social conditions imposed on
the population in the Caucasus, too, by the Russian ruling clique in alliance
with international capitalism are still not as base as the pure gangsterism
of the Islamistisc gangs, as it has shown also in Kosovo under the umbrella
of the West. It must be criticized that Russia’s social and economic
low as of today offers a breeding ground for the gangster regimes of the
Islamists and others, but not that there are still forces in Russia who
do not want to hand over parts of the country to the West and its Islamistic
would-be satraps. The mass murder attacks in Madrid
of March made it clear that the Islamistic gangs also act directly against
the working population of developed countries. Why? Here it is possible
to recall once more the infamous “strategy of tension”, which
has been favored since long by certain undercover NATO circles, for example,
in order to detract from the social struggle and to castigate the population
for too much engaging in social struggle. Which capitalistic-fascist conspirators
were active in the case of Madrid and conceded to the Islamistic murder-addicts
the scope for their crime, probably well overviewed by their own secret
services, is still unclear. But in any case there is something
indispensable in the investigation of such crimes, the basic experience
from so many cases of reactionary political terror of the past decades:
if the shady activities of secret service structures of capitalist countries
are not included in the solution, it can hardly been understood how such
spectacular crimes become possible time and again. FBI and CIA were quite
well informed about the intentions of Al-Kaeda, which trained its pilots
before their very eyes in the US, to recall a detail of this case as an
example. The fascist or Islamistic terrorist gang are only the front characters,
this has always to be kept in mind,
and in every single case it has to be elucidated again. Who works
against this way of putting the questions and refuses it, encourages more
crimes. It is the population, the working
masses in many countries, socially suppressed by the ruling conditions, in our country, too, which
are in danger to become the possible object of such deeds. If one wants
to counter that, one has to pull the political forces behind the scene
into the light, there is no other way. A thorough criticism of such Islamic
mentalities and milieus must be started, which offer a breeding ground
for the criminals, and this criticism is required particulary from the
part of those, too, who include themselves into this culture. It is not
sufficient that this or that Islamic dignitary happens to distance himself,
too. Above all, however, it depends on accounting to ourselves on the
capitalism of our own Western countries, which stops at no crime in order
to beat back revolutionary tendencies and to intrude into foreign territories.
Beslan seems far away, but the
supporters of the gangs which committ crimes like in Beslan or Madrid,
are partly quite near in our countries. Walter
