American Double Standard
by Mohammed on Oct 10, 2007 02:07 PM

I fail to understand what the Americans want. First they went after Afghanistan in the name of Osama Bin Laden.( which was actually a ploy so that they can build a pipeline from the Caspian Sea.
"Unocal was one of the key players in the Cent Gas consortium, an attempt to build the Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline to run from the Caspian area, through Afghanistan and probably Pakistan, to the Indian Ocean. One of the consultants to Unocal at that time was Zalmay Khalilzad, now US ambassador to Iraq."
Excerpts taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unocal

Then they go after Iraq.
Now everybody knows that was about the oil and they never found any WMD's
Instead they kept supporting Pakistan and Pervez Musharaf who has been the root to all Jihadis plaguing the world.

When will the world realize this the American double standard .America went to war in Afghanistan & Iraq on the pretext that these were the people involved with the 9/11 attacks.
Tell me what should have we done when we have lost more than 75,000 people in the last 10 years in Kashmir? Has the Americans ever acknowledged that? Or will they ever ? or are they trying to say that American blood is important to the Indian?
I might be angry at this article cause inspite of all this hoo haa%u2026by the Americans telling the world about Pakistan, George Bush and Pervez musharaf would have a cup of tea at the end of the day. And still be buddies in the war against terror.

Its all about securing Energy needs for the Ame
