2001-10-12 Islam And The Christian Imperative

As it is, if Islam was not the target when the crisis began, it now is. A country not part of the Middle East imbroglio is bombed out of existence for no reason than that the man the Anglo-Saxons want is in its territory, and who she is asked to hand over without any proof that it is Mr Osama indeed is who planned it all. If those who came on television to tell the world of how convinced they are of Mr Osama's guilt after reading the 70 point indictment, they would have faced multiple charges of perjury if they were in a court of law. At the end of it all, we are told that the Afghan tragedy is acceptable because that is to avenge the death of 6,000 in September that shook the Christian foundations of the United States to its metaphorical roots.

2001-10-10 The Fundamentalist Fanatics Gird For A Crusade In Afghanistan

The one important difference between the protagonists is how the two sides -- the Anglo-American consortium against Islamic "terrorists" and the "terrorists" themselves, Mr Osama bin Laden and his Al-Qaeda network -- view their role: the former is opportunistic and the latter principled. He would not allow the United Nations, as his father, to orchestrate the crisis, but instead went ahead, with Britain in tow, and a listless coalition to justify his move. The original 100 countries who backed, or forced to back, Washington has dwindled to 40, and even that conditionally. In other words, this war against Afghanistan is an Anglo-Saxon attack on Islam, however often this is denied.

2001-09-19 The Colonialism Of The Mind

So thoroughly colonised is one writer's mind that he rewrites history: Malaysia was not a member of SEATO (South East Asia Treaty Organisation), as he imagined, nor did SEATO come to Malaysia's aid during Indonesia's confrontation of Malaysia; it was the Anglo-Malaysian defence agreement that pitted British forces against Indonesia.

1998-02-06 Proposed US attack on Iraq: Three Security Council members disa

It does also appear, on what is known, to have been a Republican move against the Democratic president in what appears to be a tough mid-term congressional and gubernatorial elections this year. The US secretary of state, Mrs Madelaine Albright, scouts around the Middle East for allies, but those allies of the 1991 war with Iraq are giving their reluctance only grudgingly. So, far the two strongest proponents for teaching Iraq a lesson are the two Anglo-Saxon nations, the US and Great Britain.

 About 

This archive was created as a tribute to the late veteran journalist MGG Pillai. We believed his writings are useful to develop a critical thinking analysis. By the way, the original mggpillai.com web site (2001-2006) was actually created by one of us.
