Many are the questions round the attempt in Boston, on April 15th. The incredibility on the official version on the events has been drowned amid a media torrent of unclear waters, aiming for the instilment of an irrationality and phobia security, beyond the USA’s boarders. Besides the differences, the feeling of a déjá vu is inevitable and the analogy regarding September 11, 2001. Mostly, with the terrorist campaign launched by the USA, via the Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda combat myth against terrorism, following the Twin Towers and the Pentagon attempts. Probably, as after September 11, all that follows might answer the classical questions: Who profits with this action? Which interests and agenda does it serve?
This time, the blame does not point out a malignant mind,
operating from the Afghanistan caverns ( the USA and NATO have even planned an evacuation of most of the occupation troops for 2014, leaving behind the minimum indispensable for the control of the Afghani destabilizing focus). But, instead towards a Russian trail - the accused belong to Chechnya origin -, which, on its own, shows the stakes are very high. As in 2001, Putin rushed to claim for cooperation with the USA concerning the fight against terrorism, but reminding the West support unto the Chechnya Islamic groups. The Russian president does not ignore that concerning Boston, voices coming from the core of the USA establishment currently point out the Russian Caucasus as a terrorism nursery. Secure signs of the increasing pressure on Russia, carried out by the financial - military - industrial complex, which determines the USA’s strategic guideline, a few months ahead from the taking place of the Saint Petersburg G-20 Summit. And less than a year from the Sochi Olympic Games ( Winter 2014), just by the Caucasus… On the Russian side, along with the official statements, the press news on the T. Tsarnaiev involvement are not ignored - the main suspect of the Boston attempt, immediately eliminated at the head, by the “investigation” - in CIA destabilizing actions, in the north of the Caucasus, which ought to be lead with Georgia’s support. Washington is aware that, following the USSR dismantlement , the Caucasus’ republics instable situation ( with social and national basis) represents the Achilles heal of the Russian Federation’s own territorial integrity. Therefore, it has always, promoted in the underground, inclusively from the Kremlin’s core, during Yeltsin, Berezovshi and Cia…, separatist terrorism amid the Caucasus.
A framework which achieves a new dimension upon the operation against Libya and mostly with the Syria’s terrorist war in progress. Under terrorism scarecrow cover, Boston has made it kindle, that new signs of militarist escalade are emerging, in a moment when in the pay groups in Syria, suffer losses, in the military front. The provocative accusations, launched by Israel’s intelligence, the use of chemical weapons in Damascus which have an echo in London, Paris and Washington ( besides certain signals of light consistency of a certain distance from the White House…), are amid the perspective which lays down eyes on Iran and issued from the strategic agenda against Russia and China.
Under the background of the aggravating of the capitalism systemic crisis, imperialism will carry on using terrorism carte blanche in its external and home agenda. In order to fight against peoples sovereignty and criminalize the resistance struggle. And in order to install repressive order, the new capitalist exploiting and concentration paradigm demands, with growing impatience.
