ANSWER: Gandhiji

|
|
|
These demands were met, and he broke his fast. "Let this be my
|
|
last fast," he said. He was gunned down shortly afterwards. It
|
|
is 2002 and not only is Pakistan and India still an open wound,
|
|
so are Afganistan and the US and Israel and Palestine.

PUBLISHER'S COLUMN
|
|
|
|
Rather than a column, this week I turn this section
|
|
over to Shell Stern who wrote an article about the
|
|
SOA many years ago. It means as much this moment as
|
|
it ever did before.
|
|
|
|
SCHOOL OF THE AMERICAS by Shell Stern Feb 6, 1997.
|
|
|
|
|
|
School of the Americas. When I first heard the phrase I tried
|
|
to imagine what this place could be about. Was it an institution
|
|
of higher education that initiates and encourages dialogue between
|
|
our northern and southern neighbors? Was it a non-profit organization
|
|
that taught the true history of our continents? I was pretty optimistic
|
|
with the fairly inclusive title. This did not leave me fully prepared
|
|
for the hidden truths I was soon to discover. All I had to hear was
|
|
the title of the video "School of the Assassins" and I knew I was in
|
|
for some grim news. Once again I learned how our government is undoubtedly
|
|
responsible for the deaths of thousands of people in Latin America. Our
|
|
tax money is going to support torture, rape and murder.
|
|
The school of the Americas (SOA) has been in existence for about 50
|
|
years now; first in Panama to ultimately "combat" communism and today
|
|
in Fort Benning, Georgia to essentially crush socialist thought. It
|
|
wasn't some ignorant soul who one day decided that the "School of the
|
|
Assassins" was a better name for the place, but rather a passionate
|
|
reaction to the discovery that graduates from the school were committing
|
|
disgusting acts of violence on their own people. SOA students aren't
|
|
taking Non-violent Conflict Resolution Skills: 101 or even a mediocre
|
|
leadership course like I might have hoped. These people are taught
|
|
"how-can-I-get-away-with-torturing-raping-killing-entire-villages-of-
|
|
peasants-who-are-becoming-empowered-by-an-honest-liberation-theology-
|
|
driven-church-worker-and-get-away-with-it: 101." Let's face it, with
|
|
former panamanian dictator, Manuel Noriega as an "honored" graduate,
|
|
what more do we need to concur that something is just a little bit
|
|
corrupt with the activities of SOA?
|
|
Oh there are many right-wingers who would want us to believe
|
|
that SOA plays a crucial role in promoting democracy and human
|
|
rights in Latin America (and under their breath mutter something
|
|
about protecting US economic interests.) Hmm, that's odd, why
|
|
then in October, 1996 would Amnesty International launch official
|
|
investigations concerning the training manuals at SOA and urge
|
|
the US government to assume responsibility for human rights
|
|
violations committed by military personell trained there? Is it
|
|
just a fluke that a United Nations Truth Commission report on
|
|
El Salvador stated that over two thirds of the officers cited
|
|
for the worst atrocities were alumni of SOA? These are only two
|
|
examples that aided in the creation of a long list of graduates
|
|
that have taken part in major human rights abuses in many Latin
|
|
American countries. With so many contradictions, can there be
|
|
any legitimate purpose for the School of the America's existance?
|
|
For me this information is completely impossible to ignore.
|
|
In the military's 260 million dollar budget there is 18.4 million
|
|
dollars for SOA. Somewhere in that big stack of 18.4 million worn,
|
|
burnt out dollar bills is at least one that has my name written all
|
|
over it. As tax paying citizens WE are the ones who need to say the
|
|
School of the Americas has to cease operation immediately! Friends,
|
|
I do not believe that five hundred people stormed in on SOA last
|
|
November because it was a great place for a picnic. I also do not
|
|
believe that grandmothers, priests and nuns were getting arrested
|
|
for civil disobedience because they had nothing better to do that
|
|
day. I met a woman who was one of the sixty arrested. Hearing her
|
|
powerful words and non-violent approach, accompanied with the
|
|
contents of the "School of the Assassins" 18 minute video, I was
|
|
determined to begin my own investigation of SOA.
|
|
Every day I discover a new article on SOA and each time I
|
|
reflect on it I realize that we are all called in some way to
|
|
work for justice. Each time I talk to someone else who has read
|
|
about this scandalous school we become even more determined and
|
|
motivated to spread the word. Won't you please join us in the
|
|
struggle to shutdown this school of assassins? This April (date
|
|
to be announced) we will try...

Nazi Germany and USA can never be compared, only contrasted.

The Reichstad building burned to the ground 11sep33. 50 years
|

passed and still no one knows if President Hitler blew it up.
|

The USA have the WorldTrade Building burning down 27feb01 but

history just may yet give all the answers in under four years.
