NUMBERS: US world #1 threat to planet & US world #1 terrorist state

The US – or more precisely the United States of Israel (USI) – is the world #1 threat to the world, #1 threat to world peace, world #1 terrorist state, and the world #1 rogue state .

Several years ago 1993 Nobel Laureate for Peace and world elder statesman Nelson Mandela declared that the US threatens world peace by its invasions in the Middle East: he specifically condemned United States intervention in the Middle East as "a threat to world peace". http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/2... .

Lord Kelvin argued for the importance of supporting arguments or propositions with NUMBERS – so we should try this approach on 1993 Nobel Prize for Peace winner and world elder statesman Nelson Mandela’s proposition that the US threatens world peace.

"Threatening world peace" ranges from being armed to the teeth to verbally threatening, invading, occupying and mass killing to mass murder of Indigenous women and children.

The US with 4.7% of the world’s population accounts for HALF of the world’s circa $1 TRILLION military expenditure (2004 data).

The US leads the world by far for actually invading and occupying other countries post-WW2 (for details see William Blum’s best-selling book "Rogue State, A guide to the world’s only superpower": http://www.amazon.com/Rogue-State-G... .

A key measure of adverse outcomes is excess death (avoidable death, avoidable mortality, excess mortality deaths that did not have to happen: http://globalavoidablemortality.blo... ) and the following is a list of countries for which the US has been a major foreign occupier in the post-1945 period (excluding Germany and Japan) and the ratio of "1950-2005 excess deaths"/"2005 population" for the US, for each of these victim countries and the total for the victim countries (* indicates others joined in as major occupiers e.g. war criminal UK; see “Body Count. Global avoidable mortality since 1950” (G.M. Polya, Melbourne, 2007: http://mwcnews.net/content/view/137... and http://globalbodycount.blogspot.com/ ).

US [8.455m/300.038m = 2.8%] - Afghanistan* [16.609m/25.971m = 64.0%], Cambodia* [5.852m/14.825m = 39.5%], Dominican Republic [0.806m/8.998m = 9.0%], Federated States of Micronesia [0.016m/0.111m = 14.4%], Greece* [0.027m/10.978m = 0.2%], Grenada* [0.018m/0.121m = 14.9%], Guam [0.005m/0.168m = 3.0%], Haiti* [4.089m/8.549m = 47.9%], Iraq* [5.283m/26.555m = 19.9%], Korea* [7.958m/71.058m = 11.2%], Laos* [2.653m/5.918m = 44.8%], Panama [0.172m/3.235m = 5.3%], Philippines [9.080m/82.809m = 11.0%], Puerto Rico [0.039m/3.915m = 1.0%], Somalia* [5.568m/10.742m = 51.8%], US Virgin Islands [0.003m/0.113m = 2.4%], Vietnam* [24.015m/83.585m = 28.7%], total = 82.193m/357.651m = 23.0%.

Excess deaths in post-1950 US Asian Wars total 24 million, so far including about 2 million in Occupied Iraq and about 3-7 million in Occupied Afghanistan (see: http://mwcnews.net/content/view/208... ) .

The US alone or via US surrogates (Ethiopia, Canada, France, Apartheid Israel etc) currently occupies a swathe of countries: Haiti, Somalia, Palestine, Syria (partly), Iraq, Afghanistan - Occupied countries in which 0.6 million under-5 year old infants die EACH YEAR i.e. ONE EVERY MINUTE due to Occupier war crimes (see “US terror & occupation. War crimes & huge infant deaths”: http://mwcnews.net/content/view/119... ).

Aside from US-backed Israel (which has invaded and occupied all its neighboring countries and still occupies part of Syria and all of Palestine) and Iraq (which was green-lighted by its former backer the US and transiently invaded Kuwait) the only non-European countries actually violently invading and substantially occupying other countries in the post-1950 era are or were all US-backed (Turkey, Ethiopia, and Indonesia).

Notwithstanding Bush-ite, neo-Bush-ite and Zionist "terror hysteria" about peaceful, remote, non-invading, non-occupying Iran, Hamas etc etc , the "Muslim-origin terrorists" have only succeeded in killing 7,000 Western civilians in 40 years (this including 2,000 Israelis and assuming for the purposes of argument no US or Israeli involvement in 9/11 as asserted by former Italian president and intelligence intimate Francesco Cossiga: http://mwcnews.net/content/view/185... ) - as compared to post-invasion excess deaths in US post-2000 Asian wars now totalling about 6-9 million (see “The Big Lie. Falsity of Zionist, neo-con & US terror hysteria”: http://mwcnews.net/content/view/208... ).

For the historical details of the horrendous US invasion, occupation or subversion of most countries in the World see William Blum’s best-selling book "Rogue State" - including a chapter on "How the CIA sent Nelson Mandela to prison for 28 years" and "the US [and Israel] against the world at the UN" (an appalling record of support for racism, violence and Apartheid).

Most Western and indeed Eastern European countries are now in close collaboration with the racist and war criminal US and its racist and war criminal lackey Apartheid Israel – what a disgrace, what a perversion of humanity by the racist, lying, war-mongering Bush-ites, neo-Bush-ites and racist Zionists (RZs).

Decent anti-racist folk should NEVER FORGET that these world-leading terrorist states fanatically supported the racist subjugation of non-Europeans in South Africa for 45 years – just as they CONTINUE to support the horrendous, racist, genocidal subjugation of Asians and Africans TODAY in a swathe of countries from Occupied Haiti and Occupied Somalia, through Occupied Palestine, Occupied Syria and Occupied Iraq to Occupied Afghanistan.

Just as sanctions and Boycotts saved South Africa from racist Apartheid, so Sanctions and Boycotts can save the world from the racist, anti-Arab anti-Semitic, prot-Nazi Bush America, the United States of Israel (USI).

Of course the biggest threat to the World today comes from escalating FOOD PRICES due substantially to US-driven biofuel perversion (food for American cars and not for starving Asians and Africans), global warming and US military-backed globalization. For recent analyses of the biofuel-, climate change- and globalization-driven global food price crisis see "World food price crisis and global famine from biofuel perversion, climate change and globalization”:

CREDENTIALS: Dr Gideon Polya published some 130 works in a 4 decade scientific career, most recently a huge pharmacological reference text "Biochemical Targets of Plant Bioactive Compounds" (CRC Press/Taylor & Francis, New York & London, 2003). He has just published “Body Count. Global avoidable mortality since 1950” (G.M. Polya, Melbourne, 2007: http://mwcnews.net/content/view/137... and http://globalbodycount.blogspot.com/ ); see also his contribution “Australian complicity in Iraq mass mortality” in “Lies, Deep Fries & Statistics” (edited by Robyn Williams, ABC Books, Sydney, 2007): http://www.abc.net.au/rn/science/oc... ). He is currently preparing a revised and updated version of his 1998 book “Jane Austen and the Black Hole of British History” (see: http://janeaustenand.blogspot.com/ ) as biofuel-, globalization- and climate-driven global food price increases threaten a possibly 100-fold greater famine catastrophe (see: http://www.countercurrents.org/poly...) than the man-made famine in British-ruled India that killed 6-7 million Indians in the “forgotten” World War 2 Bengal Famine (see recent BBC broadcast involving me, Economics Nobel Laureate Professor Amartya Sen and others: http://www.open2.net/thingsweforgot... ).
