Security and geopolitics A view from The Bahamas By Bahamian: Dennis Dames Copyright ©2003 Dennis Arthur Dames The complete call was 911, and the uniformity of the moment transformed our world forever. The most powerful nation on earth, the United States of America- received a wakeup call. It was deadly, it was heartbreaking, it was completely destructive, it was an act of war and it will never be forgotten in our lifetime. It should not. The events of September 11, 2001- was executed by a called- stateless network of terrorists. It is therefore sensible, and wise to presume that a state organized terror attack on American soil- would be even more deadly. That is why a war is imminent with Iraq. America has a right to defend itself, and it’s case sounds serious. It is unfortunate that so many political leaders in Europe seem to be ignorant of their not so distant past. Should we wait for millions more to be murdered at the hands of crazy dictators and global terrorists, while some in positions of responsibility pretend that nothing is wrong? It is now becoming evident, that the network of terror transcends all borders. The profile, and the mission of the terrorists are usually related. We are already living in a state of global warfare. The borders are being secured everywhere, and the great armies and navies- are moving into their respective positions. Let us not pretend, that war with Iraq can be averted if the demands of the mighty United States are not met. The future of the United Nations is at great risk in the process. The United States of America is determined not to be a sitting duck again. It has that right. If the forgetful leaders of Europe want to be sitting ducks and encourage their people to be the same, that’s their right too- I imagine. While many of them act like their respective countries, are not under any external terror threats in the day, at night they secretly wheel and deal the next way. It goes with the territory. The issue of national security is a universal phenomenon. The urgency for international security against global and state sponsored terrorism is being severely compromised by the nature of global politics, and economics. It’s the perfect recipe for a troubled world waiting to explode. In the meantime, America and the coalition of the willing will act to disarm Iraq, if Iraq does not do so itself. Remember always now that, America is not in a sitting duck mode, and the United Nations will do or die soon. All parties will have to make a decision shortly, and every individual nation involve- shall forever live or die with their single choice. The room at the middle of the road is slowly thinning. The line has been drawn, so pick which side you are on. The peace and security of the world are under siege. www.Bahamian.web.com
