History Is Written By Those Who Win

The History Of Other Cultures Is Non-existent Until It Erupts In Confrontation With The United States.

These Actions Were Taken With The Support And Financing Of The United States. How Can You Say This Is Part Of U.s. Adherence To International Law And U.n. Resolutions? The Result Is A Kind Of Schizophrenic Picture Of The United States.

My Argument Is That History Is Made By Men And Women, Just As It Can Also Be Unmade And Rewritten, Always With Various Silence And Elisions, Always With Shapes Imposed And Disfigurements Tolerated.

We Can Not Fight For Our Rights And Our History As Well As Future Until We Are Armed With Weapons Of Criticism And Dedicated Consciousness.

All The Words That George Bush Used In Public During The Early Stages Of The Crisis - "wanted, Dead Or Alive," "a Crusade," Etc. - Suggest Not So Much An Orderly And Considered Progress Towards Bringing The Man To Justice According To International Norms, But Rather Something Apocalyptic, Something Of The Order Of The Criminal Atrocity Itself. That Will Make Matters A Lot, Lot Worse, Because There Are Always Consequences.
