U S Cultivated Islamic Extremism In Afganistan
Awkward with promoting American interests vs. the Soviet Relationship in the mid-1980s, the Reagan organization promoted Islamic extremism in Afghanistan. In The New American Cultivation, Rodrigue Tremblay describes how the U.S. provided Islamic schools in Afghanistan and Pakistan with free books celebrating Islamic law, kind forward looking Islam, and encouraging jihad vs. infidels (i.e., Russian atheists). According to Tremblay, these books "hidden not in basic terms exhortations to holy war, but as well many drawings transmission soldiers, guns, bullets, grenades, tanks, bombs and antipersonnel mines" (p. 50).Tremblay ins and outs how this "heartfelt aid" congeal, which spread-out in the sphere of the 1990s, used up outstanding 51 million to expand textbooks for Muslim children which "puffed up war and arms." These textbooks would well along be adopted by the Taliban as they rose to power in the mid to late 1990s."Observers series that heartfelt fundamentalism was brilliantly inexistent (sic) in Afghanistan and Pakistan prior the U.S. tenet granted to promote them and to kit out ideological and armed forces arms to raid the Soviets" (p. 51)Many from head to foot neoconservatives procure that America is achievement a war not naively on terrorism but as well on Islamofascism. Plant himself has frequently referred to "Islamic fascists," and be partial to but such as "Islamic extremists" are taking part in in American culture today. Silent, I can't help wondering how many Americans determine that their own tenet had a hand in cultivating "forward looking Islam, Islamic extremism," and the when.Tags: religion, politics, Islam, terrorism, Islamic extremism, heartfelt extremism, America, Coupled States, Afghanistan, PakistanCopyright (c) 2013 Atheist Go.
