Missile Crisis in a Teacup

category international | anti-war / imperialism | other press author Friday July 07, 2006 12:52author by dingo

A considered and balanced view of the media event presently saturating the airwaves, the “North Korean Missile Crisis”, would reveal an hysterical, farcical over-reaction! The Korean so-called long range ICBM explodes on launch – good one, Kim! But notice how quick the coalition of willing criminals are to utilise anything to distract the public attention away from the criminality of Guantanamo Bay, Iraq, Camp Bond Steel (occupation base in the Balkans which utilises the services of East European child sex slaves to service American troops). THIS IS AMERICA, policeman of the world, welcome to ‘freedom’, exploitation and the pollution that is American culture. [The world needs the USA like it needs a hole in the head!]

This is the first I've heard of Child sex slavery at an american camp in Kosovo?, is there a link or any other proof as it were? I know that UN peacekeepers in Africa have had an ongoing similar situation.

are the legacy of ALL American bases. The largest one in Europe (Bondsteel) has impacted severely on the local Albanian, Kosovar, and Serbian cultures. The respective criminal groups vie for the drug and sex trades. As the competition gets tougher the prostitutes get younger. This has been broadcast on various Euro media, however, I think the use of the word "child" is stretching the point -- at least at this stage anyway.

No doubt the largest American base will lay claim to the largest scandal soon enough.
