Islamist Copy of
Christian Inquisition
The "Arab
Spring" was optimistically named after a season in nature during which life is
reborn and was supposed to promise a renewal of the stagnant political, social
and economic life in the Arab world, but unfortunately it turned instead into a
sectarian season of killing, death and destruction by counterrevolution forces
nurtured financially, logistically, militarily and politically by the most
conservative among the Arab ruling regimes in the Arabian Peninsula and their
U.S. -- led western sponsors and backers.
The sectarian
cleansing in Iraq and Syria committed by the exclusionist sectarian zealots has
become an Islamist modern copy of the European Christian inquisition in the
Middle Ages, with the difference that the old European one was more systematic
and organized by the Vatican institution and its allied states while it is
perpetrated by uncontrolled sporadic and shadowy gangs of terror in the modern Arab
case.
The fact that this horrible phenomenon
came into life only with the U.S. -- led invasion then occupation of Iraq in
2003 and exacerbated with the on - record U.S. campaign for a "regime change"
in Syria could only be interpreted as an outcome of a premeditated policy to
divide and rule in the Arab world.
On last August 24, the Maronite patriarch Bechara Boutros
al-Rai'e told the Vatican Radio: "There is a plan to destroy the Arab world for
political and economic interests and boost inter-confessional conflict between
Sunnis and Shiites," adding, "We are seeing the total destruction of what
Christians managed to build in 1,400 years" in terms of peaceful cohabitation
and coexistence with Muslims.
This
interpretation is vindicated, for example, by the fact that both the sectarian
ruling antagonists, who were brought to power in Iraq by the invading U.S.
army, and the al-Qaida --linked protagonists, whose presence in Iraq coincided
with the U.S. occupation of the country and who are waging a sectarian war of
terror to remove them from power, were both U.S. -- made warriors, the first as
the "democratic opposition" to the national "dictatorship" of late Saddam
Hussein and the second as the "freedom fighters" against the military
occupation of Afghanistan by the former Soviet Union "empire of evil,"
according to the U.S. propaganda terminology.
