When an avowedly racist president indulges in unlimited economic terrorism against Iran, blatantly backs Zionist terrorism against Palestinians, openly assists with supply of more lethal arms the Saudi terrorism in Yemen, terrorizes Hispanic migrants to death for seeking better opportunities across the northern borders, and threatens to unleash terrorism on a grand scale in Afghanistan to slaughter at least ten million men, women, and children in a few days; how would white-skinned US citizens with barely suppressed racist terrorism in their veins, act in their own localities?
With frequent outbursts of terrorism, of course.
This was evident in El Paso and Dayton within 24 hours on Saturday/Sunday – the 250th and 251st incidents of mass killings in the US in only 216 days of the current year, making 2019 the deadliest in American history, with 169 days left for election year 2020 and far more deadlier days awaiting the ordinary citizens, especially those of colour, whom Donald Trump criminally derides.
In Dayton, Ohio, at least nine were killed dead and 16 hurt, while in El Paso, Texas, 20 were confirmed killed and 27 injured, and in both cases, a lone gunman indiscriminately sprayed people with gunfire.
Many of the injured are reportedly in critical condition, which means the death toll is likely to rise.
If official figures are to be believed, so far this year, more than 520 people have died in mass shootings and over 2,000 have been injured, all of which indicate the psychopathic nature of the US society from the top to the bottom.
The Dayton terrorist is said to have been killed by police in the entertainment district which he targeted, but his name, identity and motivation – despite the personal cards recovered from him along with the type of the undisclosed weapon – are not being disclosed by the white authorities to the public.
As for the El Paso terrorist who massacred unsuspecting shoppers, he has been nabbed and reluctantly acknowledged to be a white-man venting racist violence on Hispanic people in the town (actually illegally occupied territory like the rest of the southern US states from Florida to California) which is very close to the Mexican border and is frequented by workers and businessmen legally crossing from Mexico.
It is an irony, or more properly injustice on the national scale, that local terrorists – although mainstream media never uses this term for them except in the rare case of a socially-wronged Muslim indulging in violence – are either killed in the shootout with police or put behind bars, but the top notch terrorists, such as President Donald Trump and his team of thugs who promote wars, bloodshed and terrorism around the world, are never denounced, let alone impeached.
Here we take the liberty to reproduce what we wrote in our Viewpoint Column of June 1st on the mass killing that happened on the Virginia Beach Municipal Center on May 31:
"…What has happened in Virginia, and what will happen in other places in the US in the coming days, and what happens routinely all over the country almost every day, with either white skin police psychopaths shooting to death a hapless Afro-American or a lone wolf gunning down shoppers, passersby, students at schools and colleges, and workers, are all proof of the terrorist mentality of the US, from the lower wrung of the society to the topmost echelons of the administration, which is notorious for its policy of state terrorism around the world.
"There is, however, a wide difference between everyday violence and deaths in the US, and the death and destruction the administration in Washington rains down on countries and peoples that do not follow American dictates. The ordinary killer – except for the murderous police personnel – is killed, caught, convicted and jailed, but the mass murderers who destroy entire nations like George Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and others (Trump), are never brought to trial.”
We in the Islamic Republic of Iran express our condolences to the bereaved families of the victims of the Dayton and El Paso acts of terrorism, since we are not uncivilized, uncouth, ignorant, and inhuman like the US president to call the United States of America as a nation of terrorists and psychopaths.
As we go to the press, unfortunately more acts of terrorism might be in the offing in the US, or by the CENTCOM terrorists spread from Afghanistan to North Africa, because, as we said earlier at the start of today’s Viewpoint Column, when the Chief Executive of a country happens to be an avowedly racist terrorist, then the rest of the nation is likely to imitate him, as per their own capabilities and in their own localities.
To sum up, as long as Donald the Dotard is not brought to justice for his crimes against humanity, and as long as US arms manufacturers in league with the greedy politicians continue to exploit the weird gun laws of the country (both for local supplies and export of state-of-the-art military technology), American citizens will continue to be killed – whether at home in shopping malls, clubs, offices, streets and schools, or whether as terrorists meddling in the affairs of Syria, Iraq, the Persian Gulf region, Afghanistan, and other places.
