WOL Radio  Talk Show Host Questions Bush War on Terrorism
Interview with Dr. Kaukab Siddique on India-Pakistan Confrontation:
It's a Diversion from U.S. Moves
The Real War is Against Islamic Resistance in Kashmir and Afghanistan
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First the latest news (May 28):
1. Pakistan leader Musharref has handed over 
the leader of the Chinese Islamic movement to the Beijing government.
2. Russia has joined NATO in the ongoing attempts to encircle the 
Muslim world.
3.The "zenith of evil" has happened! A Jewish child killed in an 
amateurish attack by an 18-year-old Palestinian. Almost every second day, 
Palestinian children are killed by Israel. 
No Israeli soldier has ever been brought to 
the TV screens as the killer of children. Jewish children are valuable:
they have the entire Zionist media machine waiting to highlight their 
suffering. 
As for the Palestinian children, they remain unknown, mere statistics.

On Sunday, May 26 Wilmer Leon of the "On with Leon" show 
interviewed 
Dr. Kaukab Siddique about his just completed book-writing visit to 
Pakistan. 
The one hour interview on WOL radio was heard in Baltimore on 1010 AM, 
in 
Washington on 1450 AM and in other parts of the country on XM Satellite 
Radio 
Channel 169 "The Power."
The interview was fast moving and conversational. Its main 
points are summarized here.
Wilmer Leon began the show with a commentary on the current 
phase of 
the "war on terrorism". He questioned the methodology of the Bush 
administration which has been issuing totally non-specific and 
generalized 
warnings about the danger of new terror attacks. The Bush 
administration 
seems to be deliberately trying to create panic and using the situation 
to 
erode American civil liberties.
Leon pointed out that the hijackers on 9/11 did not use 
submarines, 
B-52s or Apache helicopters. The Bush military build up, with billions 
of 
dollars, is not relevant to what the hijackers did (used themselves).
Later Leon also brought up the issue of the behind-the-scenes 
issues in 
this war connected to the oil interests in which the puppet Afghan 
leader 
Karzai plays a part.
The following are the main points of Dr. Siddique's responses to 
Leon's questions:
1. America is entering a stage of "questioning" of the events related 
to 9/11 
owing to the realization that the "war on terrorism" has not led to 
victory. 
Mckinney has started the process which could lead to an inquiry into the 
failure of the CIA and the FBI. The question is:
How could the hijackers get 
through the most powerful security network in the world.
1a. The "war on terrorism" has been a failure. Billions of dollars of 
homeland security have netted ONLY ONE SUSPECT, Zakaria Moussoui, and 
he was in prison on 9/11.
2. Pakistani military leader Musharref and India's Vajpayee are playing 
a dangerous game of war. India might try to grab a strategic position on 
the Kashmir frontier and try to use it as a bargaining position.
3. The real target of the Musharref/Vajpayee war games is the Islamic 
resistance in Afghanistan and Kashmir. [The real force behind the show 
is the 
Bush administration.] Musharref has sealed off the border with 
Afghanistan 
and India/USA are bringing him step by step to outlaw support for the 
resistance in Kashmir.
4. Bush put its money on the Musharref regime but this can now be seen 
as a 
serious mistake. MUSHARREF became over-confident and held a REFERENDUM 
to legitimize himself. The move flopped as only FIVE to 10 percent of the 
voters voted for him. 
There was a countrywide and successful boycott of the referendum.
4a. So now the Bush administration is left with an ally whose mistaken 
move showed him to have only 5 to 10 percent of the voters on his side.
5. The Indian build-up on Pakistani borders is meant to convey a 
message to the Pakistani people:
Don't try to overthrow Musharref, otherwise you'll in 
effect be helping India. The missile firing is part of Musharref's 
game:
playing his India card. He is very good at diverting Pakistani 
attention away 
from his cooperation with Bush, to the "Indian threat."
6. (In response to caller Carolyn):
The Pakistani people do not hate America 
or Americans. Pakistanis think America has become hostile to Muslims 
because 
the power structure here has been taken over by Israelis and Jews. The 
Israeli incursions into Palestinian cities have led to intense 
condemnation in Pakistan of Israel and the American Jewish lobby.
7. America's people are being misled by the Zionists who control the 
media 
here. The media here lie on a daily basis about Palestine, Pakistan and 
the "war on terrorism."
8. A Pakistani suggested that Bush's statement that "Sharon is a man of 
peace" should be turned into a sticker to put on TV screens as a form 
of reminder of the flat out falsehoods which come out of the White House.
9. THERE ARE TWO REALITIES IN PAKISTAN/AFGHANISTAN: One, the big money 
world 
of Musharref and Karzai, linked to the World Bank and Bush/Cheyney's 
oil interests. The other is the GRINDING POVERTY of the vast majority of 
the Afghan and Pakistani people.
10. After the fall of the USSR, the oil interests in America (now 
embodied in 
Bush/Cheyney) rushed to Kyrgizistan, and other republics with oil, gas 
and minerals. They need Afghanistan to pump this vast wealth out for 
export. They 
tried to use the Taliban but the Taliban did not like to be pushed 
around.
11. The fear complex being created by the generalized "terror warnings" 
(scuba divers could get you), provides the emerging fascist state happy 
hunting grounds, with Arabs, Pakistanis and "different looking" people 
as 
targets. CITIZENS ARE NO LONGER IMMUNE. Ahmed Abdel Sattar, leading 
Egyptian 
dissident, honest American citizen, has been arrested for allegedly 
talking to opponents of the dictator of Egypt, Hosni Mubarak.
