4.6 奥巴马:十字军骑士与穆斯林世界
4.6 Obama The Crusading Knight And The Muslims World
2009年10月9日,美国总统巴拉克·奥巴马因其在世界和平方面的卓越贡献而被授予诺贝尔和平奖。诺贝尔委员会在声明中表示,他"在国际政治中营造了一种新的氛围……"
On October 9 2009, US President Barack Obama was awarded Nobel Peace Prize for astounding services in the name of world peace. In its statement, the Nobel Committee said he had "created a new climate in international politics....
“只有极少数人能像奥巴马那样引起全世界的关注,并给世界各国人民带来对更美好未来的希望。”xxxiii 该声明接着写道:“他的外交建立在这样一个理念之上:那些要引领世界的人,必须基于世界上大多数人所共有的价值观和态度来行事。”xxxiv 通常,奖项是授予那些取得了切实成就的人,而不是授予仅仅承诺将实现有意义成果的人。就奥巴马而言,他既没有实现和平,也没有为建立世界和平的基础做出努力。恰恰相反,他是一个好战分子和十字军东征者,正在带头发动美国对伊斯兰和穆斯林世界的战争。
Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world's attention and given its people hope for a better future.”xxxiii It continued, “His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world's population.”xxxiv Usually awards are conferred upon people when they have accomplished something tangible and not for mere pledges to achieve meaningful results. In Obama’ s case, he has neither achieved peace nor has he undertaken efforts to establish the foundations for world peace. On the contrary, he is a warmonger and a crusader who is spearheading America’ s war against Islam and the Muslim world.
奥巴马刚领取和平奖,便召集战争会议,商讨如何在阿富汗更好地发动战争。一名政府官员对法新社表示:"总统就阿富汗的安全与政治挑战,以及制定未来战略方针的各种选择,进行了一次深入的讨论。"xxxv 奥巴马将支持的措施之一,是增加部署在阿富汗的美国士兵人数。这还将叠加在五角大楼已雇用的大量私营安保承包商之上,这些承包商造成了大部分的混乱,并屠杀了大量无辜的阿富汗平民。
No sooner had Obama received the prize for peace he convened his war council to discuss how best to wage war in Afghanistan. “The president had a robust conversation about the security and political challenges in Afghanistan and the options for building a strategic approach going forward"xxxv an administration official told AFP. One of the measures Obama will endorse is to increase the number of US soldiers deployed in Afghanistan. This will be on top of the huge number of private security contractors that already work for the Pentagon and are responsible for much of the mayhem and the slaughter of innocent Afghan civilians.
奥巴马的战争委员会也在商讨扩大美国在巴基斯坦战争的方案。美国官员正公开辩论是否要对俾路支省最大的城市奎达发动导弹袭击。如果获得批准,这将标志着美国对巴基斯坦战争的新阶段,并意味着位于伊斯兰堡、堪称穆斯林世界最大规模之一的美国大使馆经过加固后,将成为策划和指挥杀害穆斯林的神经中枢。
Obama’ s war council is also deliberating options to expand America’ s war in Pakistan. American officials are openly debating whether to launch missile attacks on Quetta— Baluchistan’ s largest city. If the nod is given this will mark a new phase in America’ s war against Pakistan and means that fortification of the US embassy in Islamabad—one of the largest in the Muslim world— will be used as the nerve centre to plan and orchestrate the killing of Muslims.
美国还指派了两家美国私人安保公司——黑水公司和InterRisk——去追捕并恐吓巴基斯坦人。
Additionally, America has mandated two private US security firms Blackwater and InterRisk to hound and terrorize Pakistanis.
在伊拉克,奥巴马所谓的"撤军"政策掩盖了一个类似的险恶计划:该计划严重依赖私营安保承包商,以加强美国在该国的军事存在,并弥补美军撤离所留下的缺口。这些私营安保承包商完全不受惩罚地横行,残害穆斯林的鲜血,并羞辱普通的伊拉克人。
In Iraq, Obama’ s so called draw down policy masks a similar sinister plan that relies heavily on private security contractors to strengthen America’ s military presence in the country and to compensate for the withdrawal of US troops. The private security contractors operate with complete impunity, spilling Muslim blood and humiliating ordinary Iraqis.
根据五角大楼今年发布的新统计数据,2009年第二季度,在伊拉克为国防部工作的私营安保承包商人数增加了23%。同期阿富汗的相应数字增长了29%。
According to new statistics released by the Pentagon this year, there has been a 23% increase in the number of private security contractors working for the Department of Defence in Iraq in the second quarter of 2009 . The figure for the same period in Afghanistan is a 29% increase.
总体而言,承包商(包括武装和非武装人员)目前约占“中央司令部责任区(Centcom AOR)总兵力”的50%。这意味着在中央司令部责任区内有242,657
Overall, contractors (armed and unarmed) now make up approximately 50% of the “total force in Centcom AOR [Area of Responsibility].” This means there are a 242,657
在奥巴马总统担任三军统帅期间,承包商参与了这两场美国战争。这一数字超过了目前在伊拉克和阿富汗的兵力,后者分别为132,610人和68,197
contractors working on these two US wars under the leadership of commander in chief Barack Obama. This exceeds the present number of forces in Iraq and Afghanistan which amounts to 132,610 and 68,197

在奥巴马的任内,索马里的内战以惊人的速度蔓延。这场战争由华盛顿通过向处境艰难的美国傀儡政府(谢里夫·艾哈迈德政府)供应美国武器和军火而火上浇油。
Under Obama’ s watch the civil war in Somalia is mushrooming at an alarming rate. The war is fuelled by Washington through the supply of US arms and weapons to the beleaguered US puppet government of Sharif Ahmed.
上个月,奥巴马向军方发出信号,授权其直接介入索马里,对武装分子实施空袭——这与1993年美国对索马里的入侵颇为相似。
Last month, Obama gave the signal to his military to directly intervene in Somalia and conduct air strikes against militants—very much reminiscent of America’ s invasion of Somalia in 1993.
对伊朗,奥巴马并非在倡导和平,而是在敦促实施足以致命的制裁。这些制裁必然会伤害普通伊朗人,并在未来数十年里滋生对美国的怨恨。同样,奥巴马持续支持穆斯林世界的专制统治者,也使许多穆斯林确信,奥巴马与他的前任乔治·布什并无不同。
Against Iran, Obama is not advocating peace, but urging crippling sanctions that will surely hurt ordinary Iranians and incubate resentment against America for decades to come. Likewise Obama’ s continued support for autocratic rulers of the Muslim world has convinced many Muslims that Obama is no different to his predecessor George Bush.
然而,奥巴马未能带来和平,在巴勒斯坦问题上表现得最为明显。在就职典礼前夕,奥巴马明确表示不愿谴责以色列在加沙的残暴行径。事实上,奥巴马拒绝谴责以色列的战争罪行,开创了一种新的标准,使穆斯林的生命、鲜血和尊严变得微不足道。执政期间,奥巴马对犹太国家拒不停止定居点建设的顽固立场无动于衷,致使所有启动所谓和平谈判的努力都告失败。
However, nowhere is Obama’ s failure to deliver peace more pronounced than Palestine. As a prelude to his inauguration, Obama displayed resolute determination not to condemn Israeli savagery in Gaza. In fact, Obama’ s refusal to censure Israel over war crimes has ushered in a new standard that pays pittance to the value of Muslim life, blood and honour. In office, Obama’ s indifference to the Jewish state’ s intransigence to halt settlements has shot down all efforts to commence pseudo peace talks.
显然,奥巴马的和平努力等同于通过战争和流血来瓜分穆斯林国家的领土。奥巴马主政期间的政治环境是一种恐吓与暴政。奥巴马所推崇的价值观建立在欺骗与不公之上。诺贝尔和平奖授予奥巴马,诺贝尔委员会等于宣称,以和平为幌子对穆斯林和伊斯兰发动战争是一项高尚的行为。奥巴马或许赢得了诺贝尔委员会的青睐,但在穆斯林和世界上的许多人看来,奥巴马是一个帝国主义帝国的象征,是人类和世界和平的敌人。
Clearly then, Obama’ s peace endeavours equate to making pieces of Muslim countries through war and bloodshed. The political climate Obama has presided over is one of intimidation and tyranny. The values Obama espouses are based on deceit and injustice. By awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to Obama, the Nobel committee has avowed that waging war against Muslims and Islam under the guise of peace is a noble action. Obama may have captured the hearts of the Nobel committee, but amongst Muslims and much of the world, Obama epitomizes an imperialistic empire that is an enemy of humanity and world peace.
