The release of Donald Rumsfield using verses of the bible on top secret briefs detailing the progress of the Iraq War is not startling. The War in Iraq was described as a ‘Crusade’ rather than modern day warfare. The news may seem surprising to many news organisations but to many Muslims this isn’t a shocking revelation. A few years ago anyone who described the War in Iraq as a crusade against Muslims was classed as an extremist or as being absurd. It is clear that are so many hidden truths but it will probably take years before the truth comes out. It seems hypocrisy is now fashionable, countries before used to outwardly pillage and invade just because they could. Nowadays the United States and Britain use the humanitarian mask and the velvet cloth covered by the iron fist to fit in with the current moral nature of the environment we live in today. Of course the mass public become indoctrinated by the ridiculous moral reasoning and when this is all seen as lies it is swept under the carpet and the same reasoning is used in the next invasion.
Before America go around labelling countries or organisations terrorist nations or groups they need to take a good look in the mirror, the fact is fundamentally America seem to be the fundamentalist bending their evangelical views to fit in with a War that was unjustified and morally wrong. The United States are battling a terrorist threat that was created by them, a cancer left to infact a nation already ravaged by war, now that this ‘cancer’ has spread to another nation it is difficult to control.
Afghanistan was left despite the Taliban’s dangerous growth and the Taliban have entered into Pakistan. Iraq was the chosen ‘crusade’ for the Bush government and the Muslim World, who had their suspicions previously have now have there suspicions confirmed.

Poetry is way to describe the indescribable, a way to release pent up frustration, Muslim youth these days are looking for emancipation, and its important we represent ourselves through our speech as the government our acting like a proverbial leech. As a person who disagrees with the conjunction ‘in’ that pollutes the word justice. I think it’s important that society trusts us.
be the metaphorical Salhudin with your pen, and write rhymes for the riotous.
peace.
