Blaming Arabs

Who created terrorism? Who used jihadists and fed them with hatred towards humanity? Who lit the fire that will burn everything and everybody? Who is driving us into a third world war? Is this the new Middle East that American political books talked about? Did weapons’ prices fall that much to awaken the devils and the evil spirit lying in the hearts of anti-humanity, or were there new weapons they needed to try? What is the next step? Who is the real culprit?

So many questions to answer and maybe the last of them is the easiest, although the answer is two-sided. The first side was always present in the corridors of European security services: “Let’s throw the blame on the Arabs.” As though it is a police case lying in stock, ready to be used for every crime committed against their countries. This answer, however, is wrong.

I think the correct answer is that those who committed this crime and its predecessors are the same party that formed Al-Qaeda, sponsored it, and trained its members. It is the same party that brought “Islamic State” to existence, and helped it spread. It is the same party that offers asylum to dictators committing war crimes, offering them shelter away from the justice of their countries.

It is the Great Satan that threatens the world and seeks to destroy all opposing forces. It is same party that helps its young infant demon that resorts back to its parent when exposed as it has the necessary tools to convince the world of anything but the truth.

A maker of terrorism is ​​known to everyone, whatever the tools used, and whatever the motives are. What happened in Paris cannot be committed by normal organisations.

This accuracy only indicates intelligence devices operating underground, with entities threatening the world. Those intelligence devices push them to commit the world’s worst crimes, for the accusation to eventually land on the weakest link that will be punished without searching for the real actor behind the scene.

The Russian plane crash incident cannot be separated from the explosions in Lebanon or the events in Paris. However, the latest incident will receive the sympathy of the world, because we are – as I mentioned before – the weakest link. Many will not see us. The interests of the people are informed by their media. Those who control the media also control the public that will not see or hear except that which is served to them on a plate in the comfort of their homes, in terms of news and analysis of the crimes committed in the City of Light.

Arabs failed to defend their cases as they failed to attract the interest of the people to the justice of their cause. Moving from one failure to another, they believe they have a just cause, but their voice will not make it past the borders of their countries and will echo nowhere in the world.

In 9/11 they failed to convince the world they are innocent. After the Charlie Hebdo incident, they failed to tell Europe that those are the people sheltered there. They failed to use the information and documents they have to convince the world that Al-Qaeda was created by the US, and that “Islamic State” came from Europe.

Meanwhile, others successfully throw the blame on them, even if documents later indicate that the charges were malicious. Ten years after accusing Iraq of possessing nuclear weapons, they declared they were wrong. France, Britain and the United States all received prior information on the attacks they suffered before they took place. They were nonetheless unable to take counter measures, just as Arabs could not defend themselves and prove to the world they are innocent.

We failed to defend ourselves after the events of Sharm El-Sheikh. We were hit several times, until we were almost knocked out by Russia, yet we stood still despite all the solutions and ideas on the table. We barely absorbed the Beirut bombing to find Paris attracting the world’s eyes towards it and us. What will we do?
