The Freedom Fighter - Who Do They Fight For? Throughout the sordid history of Man there have been conflicts. In fact the history of Man IS a history of conflicts. The methods and aggressive implements used may have changed, but Man�s nature has not. The �political� ideology, and the vocabulary of justification, may have changed, but Man�s instincts and savage driving forces have not. The following does NOT just refer to those freedom fighters and terrorist organisations with which YOU disagree. It does not exclude those with which you agree. It applies to them ALL.
Superficial Definition It all gives the appearance of an act of selflessness; the offering of oneself to the greater cause of freedom for 'the community'. And, although there is shame in breaking civilised laws - which would normally be a reflection on the morals of the perpetrator - there is no shame in ignoring and breaking laws dictated by the oppressors and inflicted on the oppressed people; laws which maintain their subjugation. Breaking these laws is seen as something to be proud of; defying the will of the oppressor.
True Definition
Combat Who are their enemies? Is it just anyone who does not actively agree with their goal? No. In fact it is anyone who is not a member of that particular faction, and since the goal has become the �god� - the justification for any actions considered �necessary� - individuals, whether innocent, or random, are suitable victims of savage treatment - the terrorist�s obstacle to be overcome and neutralised. These actions cannot be wrong, according to the terrorists, for the criteria by which to judge any other person is supplied by the terrorists themselves. All the terrorist needs to know is that a person is 'in the way' and preventing the terrorists from getting their own way (not necessarily connected in any way with the 'struggle').
Victory - For Whom?
History (general) Truth - REALITY Mao Tse-Tung fought for the freedom of the oppressed in China - or so it seemed! Yet when he got power he kept it to himself at all costs and, because of his petty dictatorial attitude, and his unquestioning certainty of his own mastery of intellect, was the cause of millions upon millions of Chinese deaths and the subjugation of a whole nation. Was he truly a freedom fighter - for the Chinese? - NO! Lenin (and Stalin) fought to overthrow the oppressive rule of the Tsars and as soon as they succeeded they created one of the most despotic, cruel and oppressive systems of dictatorship where countless millions upon millions of Russians died. Is there any fool out there who truly believes that they were fighting for the freedom of the people? Mugabe in Zimbabwe fought for independence from Britain and, like all the other so called fredom fighters as soon as he got power his true motivations were demonstrated. He has now become the selfish petty two-bit tin-pot dictator and the overseer of the starvation of the people of Zimbabwe. Even the most blind among you should be able to see the truth behind all the freedom fighter rhetoric - the dishonest phrases and empty slogans. The Irish Freedom Fighters in the 1920s were fighting for freedom of the people. Yet when they got power some of then were reluctant to give that power to the people. Some thought that the people shouldn't (couldn't) be allowed to decide their future. Eamon de Valera, a 'freedom fighter' rejected the decision of the Dail (the Irish parliament) and subsequently rejected the result of the plebisite and thus started the Irish Civil War in the early 1920s. Fortunately, for the Irish people, the side which considered the people of deserving the freedom to decide their own future won and in Ireland there is a democracy (of sorts). Yet, there are still IRA people who do not recognide the validity of the Irish government and Police force etc - and the only government they will recognise is - THEIR OWN! They consider themselves freedom fighters and yet they are only petty dictators doggedly waiting for the opportunity (which fortunately for us, will never come to pass). The list could include the following: the Taliban in Afghanistan, determined to enslave a nation - and even more if they get a chance. There are other various Islamic terrorists groups eager to use violence to get their own way and to use repressive measures to maintain their control of the people. There were, and still are, numerous other freedom fighters, both left wing and right wing (in fact, there are the 'me-wing') who are determined to fight for the overthrow of oppressive �governments� and yet willing, and even determined, to judge the peasants as being expendable pawns in the struggle for power and to be the guarantors of their (the freedom fighters') lavish lifestyles if they succeed in their greedy endeavours.
For Whom? The answer to the question of whether they were originally fighting for �the people� or merely for themselves is an interestingly simple one - (who ever fought for freedom for others but NOT for themselves?!). The truth can be very easily revealed by their actions after the fighting is over. In most cases one could say that, consciously, they were fighting for what they believed. But, in like manner, when they have gained power they are oppressing others - 'the people' - for �what they believe�. And, as in the case of the United States when they gained their freedom from Britain, it was never for the benefit of ALL peoples. In America independance was not for the benefit of the Blacks, the native Americans, the Mexicans, nor even all the Whites (women weren�t equal) - freedom was for those who were considered, BY THE VICTORS, as deserving freedom. As to how selfless we should judge a freedom fighter to be is to judge how selfless they are AFTER they have gained the power, and what they actually do with that power. The phrase �what they believe in� is actually the definitive phrase. It is not the case of what the people believe in. It is what that particular terrorist believes in. If, in the mind of the freedom fighter, the goal has become heroically deified then any opposition against the terrorist (not the goal), no matter from whom, is seen as a direct attack on that goal. Thus this apparently selfless act should be seen in its true light - A TOTALLY SELFISH ACT. In many situations (not all) the freedom fighter is actually acting AGAINST the wishes of the people.
The Nationalist and Unionist Terrorists in the north of Ireland (1970 onwards) They are the true deciders as to what behaviour is allowed within their region of control. Punishment beatings (vicious attacks with baseball bats with protruding nails etc) are merely their way of controlling behaviour which they decide is not acceptable. To kill a British soldier, or a workman, or a passer-by, or any random, innocent victim is considered as being acceptable - for the goal is seen as being acceptable. To expect them to suddenly truly decide to down their arms for good without the achievement of gaining the ultimate power position is misinterpreting their initial goal. In both the north and the south of Ireland these freedom fighters turned on �their own� with as much hatred and vile loathing one could imagine, for, once within the moral �twilight zone� of freedom fighting the gun becomes the law and getting one�s own way becomes the only aim. The wishes of the majority is a meaningless concept - for the freedom fighters are outside the control of the majority. The IRA (and even Sinn Fein) would say that the freedom fighters (they even use the term �heroes�) were fighting for the freedom from British oppression. That it was all for the benefit of the �people�. But whenever the �people� got in the way, no matter who they were, they were seen as being expendable and were ruthlessly removed. They were not controlled by the people - the people were controlled, and intimidated, by them. When an Irish policeman (Det. Garda Jerry McCabe) who was guarding a cash transporter in the south of Ireland in June 1996 got in the way of an IRA robbery he was brutally and purposefully gunned down and murdered. This was an Irish citizen, working for the Irish government and on behalf of the Irish people brutally killed by members of the IRA. Also, though one can only presume this, there is a good chance that Mr McCabe himself would have wanted a peaceful re-unification of Ireland. But to the IRA he was in their way. They saw him as being totally irrelevant. This demonstrates absolutely and definitively that the IRA were fighting for THEMSELVES - not for the �people of Ireland�. Anyone - everyone - was a suitable target. In 1972 the IRA took a 37 year old woman, Jean McConville, a nationalist, a catholic and a mother of 10 children, from her home and tortured her and finally killed her because they didn�t like the fact that she has helped a British soldier who had been fatally wounded outside her front door. They cold-heartedly dumped her body in an unknown location without any thought for her family. No person, no matter how stupid, slow or ignorant they are, could argue that the killing of that woman was going to increase the chance of a united Ireland. But it didn�t matter at all to the killers - those heroic freedom fighters. The IRA, once they had decided to use force to get their own way, used force on that woman because they disagreed with her behaviour - no matter how disconnected it was with the notion of re-unification. She had merely done something which was laudable and humane but the IRA decided that that they didn�t like it. And what they didn't like they punished and ultimately killed if it suited them. The fact is that most freedom fighters terrorise their own areas - their sphere of influence - their sphere of terror, whether it be the streets of Belfast or (London) Derry, or the jungle areas of Asia or South America, or in Africa etc. The people know that they have to behave according to the rules of that terrorist group. To defy, or confront, or disagree with a member of that terrorist group, even just on a personal level, is to court torture and death. Those noble aims and heroic goals which the freedom fighters hide behind are shown for what they are - meaningless empty slogans. The IRA killers have terrorised their own areas, in the north of Ireland - even after the 'Good Friday Agreement' and end of the violent 'struggle'. They have killed people with whom they had a disagreement. They killed people whom they didn�t like. The people are afraid to speak out and point out the killers because these freedom fighters are known for what they are - KILLERS. They killed Robert McCartney in the north of Ireland and that killing was nothing to do with the struggle for freedom - it was purely a personal matter - a disagreement.
The Taliban in Afghanistan To say that the Taliban were fighting for the freedom of the people is so ridiculous as to be incredible. It is so obviously the case that the Taliban were utterly selfish and despotic in the extreme. Their way was THE only way. Their laws were the only laws. It wasn�t the case of gaining freedom from oppression - it was a case of gaining freedom in order to get one's own way - and thus oppression is the main tool.
TRUTH Freedom fighters (terrorists) fight for themselves. They will kill you, they will kill me, they will kill your relatives, your friends; they will kill ANYONE whom they do not like. This has been proven, beyond any doubt, in Ireland, in Afghanistan, in Zimbabwe, in Russia, China, Cuba and many more countless countries. This is the reality of human behaviour. Leave talk of heros and freedom fighters to children with childish notions.
No doubt this page will alter over time but in most cases it will only be to re-phrase some things, with possibly the addition of more ideas as they come to me, but overall the explanation will stay the same.
If you want to contact me to discuss, or to get me to clarify, a specific point, please only do so AFTER reading this carefully. Thank you.
