There is apparently no path blazed by George W. Bush that Barack Obama will not eagerly follow. Surges, assassinations, indefinite detention, defense of torture, senseless wars and rampant militarism — in just a few short months, we’ve seen it all.

To this dismaying record of complicity and continuity, we can add an increasing direct involvement in the horrific, hydra-headed conflict in Somalia, whose latest round of fiery hell was instigated by the American-backed invasion of Somalia by Ethiopia in late 2006. Under Bush, U.S. forces were deeply and directly enmeshed in the murderous action, dropping bombs on fleeing refugees, “renditioning” other refugees to the tender mercies of Ethiopia’s notorious prisons, and even sending in death squads to clean up after missile strikes and bombings. (For background, see ”

Silent Surge: Bipartisan Terror War Intensifies in Somalia.“)

The result of that intervention has been the deaths of thousands of innocent people, the displacement and ruination of hundreds of thousands, and the creation of what many experts call the most dire humanitarian crisis in the world today. It has also resulted in the empowerment of violent sectarian groups and criminal gangs, who have stepped forth to fill the gaps of the fledgling state that the American-Ethiopian “regime change” operation destroyed.

So what do we see from the administration of “hope and change”? We see — wait for it — a new “surge” of direct American involvement in the war, with Obama’s most ferocious war hawk — sorry, his top diplomat — Hillary “The Obliterator” Clinton leading the charge. As Jason Ditz at Antiwar.com reports, Clinton has pledged to double the recently announced supply of American weapons to Somalia’s “transitional government” — a weak reed cobbled together by Western interests from various CIA-paid warlords and other factions, and now headed, ironically, by the former leader of the aforementioned fledgling state overthrown by Washington. (Yes, it is hard to tell the players without a scorecard — or even with one. But if you follow the weapons and the money, you can usually tell who is temporarily on which side at any given moment.)

Clinton, bellicose as ever, accompanied the shipment of 80 tons of death-dealing hardware with a heavy dose of the wild fearmongering rhetoric we’ve come to know so well in this New American Century. As AP reports, she declared that the radical faction al-Shabab, now leading the insurgency against the transitional government, has only one goal in mind: bring in al Qaeda and destabilizing the whole entire world.

Yes, dear hearts, once again the survival of the planet — not to mention the sacred American way of life — is under imminent threat from a gang of evil maniacs; a threat requiring the urgent enrichment of the U.S. arms industry — sorry, I mean the urgent intervention of American know-how. For as the history of American foreign policy in the last 60 years has clearly shown us, there has never been an internal conflict in any country of the world that was not actually, deep down, a direct threat to all the sweet American babies sleeping in their cribs.

The interim Somali president, Sheik Sharif Sheik Ahmed — an Islamist who only a few years ago was considered by Washington as, well, an evil maniac in league with al Qaeda — agreed with Clinton, saying that al-Shabab aims to “make Somalia a ground to destabilize the whole world.” This would be the same al-Shabab that Ahmed has spent most of his presidency trying to negotiate a power-sharing agreement with. (Where’s that scorecard again?)

As usual, the AP story buries some of the most blazing, salient facts way down in the uncritical regurgitation of official rhetoric. But credit where it’s due, the story does finally note that the new American assistance is not confined to stuff that can kill more Somalis; it also includes - wait for it again — U.S. military “advisors” to help “train” the forces of the ever-collapsing transitional government.

Clinton also shook a sword at neighboring Eritrea, accusing it of supporting al-Shabab and “interfering” in Somalia’s internal affairs. This, while she was announcing the delivery of 80 tons of American weapons to be poured into Somalia’s internal affairs. This line is of course just an echo of the continual Bush-Obama warnings against “foreigners” interfering in Iraq. The gall of these gilded poltroons — denouncing foreign interference while standing on mountains of corpses produced by the endless American “interference” in other countries — is truly sublime. Clinton said that if Eritrea doesn’t start toeing the imperial line, “we intend to take actions.” (All you future Gold Star mothers and war widows out there better get out your atlases: your loved ones could soon be dying in yet another part of the world you never heard of.)

What will be the effect of this new “humanitarian intervention” of weapons and advisers? Same as it ever was: more death, more ruin, more suffering, more extremism, more hatred, more sorrow — and more money for the war profiteers. That is the point, isn’t it

OTTAWA — Supporters of a Canadian sentenced to life behind bars in
Ethiopia want the Harper government to suspend aid to the African
country over what they consider a politically motivated sham.
 
The Ethiopian High Court ordered Bashir Makhtal, 40, to spend life in
prison yesterday, after convicting him last week of terrorism-related
charges.
 
Lorne Waldman, Makhtal’s Toronto lawyer, has denounced the legal
proceedings as a “kangaroo court” that ignored important evidence.
 
He wants the federal government to pressure Ethiopia by cutting off all
development aid short of humanitarian assistance.
 
The court found him guilty of membership in the political and military
central committees of the separatist Ogaden National Liberation Front;
working to co-ordinate attacks against the Ethiopian army, and working
with the Eritrean government in recruiting and training insurgents.
 
He could have received the death penalty.
 
The Ethiopian-born Makhtal, who settled in Canada as a refugee in 1991
and later moved to Kenya, says he’s innocent. He is appealing the
conviction.
 
In a statement, Foreign Affairs Minister Lawrence Cannon said the
government is “extremely disappointed” by the sentence.
 
Catherine Loubier, a spokesman for Cannon, said government efforts would
focus on the continuing court proceedings — not suspending development
dollars.

OTTAWA, Aug 4 (Reuters) - Canada’s government should consider curbing
foreign aid to Ethiopia to express its unhappiness over the case of a
Canadian jailed for life in the African country, a lawyer for the man said
on Tuesday.

An Ethiopian court jailed Bashir Makhtal on Monday after he was convicted of
membership in a rebel group fighting for independence for an ethnically
Somali part of the country.

Lorne Waldman, Makhtal’s Canadian lawyer, said the charges were baseless and
he called on Ottawa to look at its aid to Ethiopia. In 2006-07, the latest
period for which figures were available, the assistance totaled C$83 million
($77 million).

“We have a lot of leverage because we provide a very generous aid package to
Ethiopia,” Waldman told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp.

“I believe we have the power to influence whatever happens to Bashir Makhtal
and we’re hopeful the Canadian government will be very forceful in its
approaches to the Ethiopians over the next few days,” he said.

Makhtal’s relatives in Canada, speaking after the sentence was handed down,
also called on Ottawa to freeze foreign aid.

Canadian officials did not directly address the possibility of ending aid,
saying they were waiting to see what happened with an appeal promised by
Makhtal’s Ethiopian lawyer.

“This is a hypothetical question linked to the success or failure of the
appeal process. We continue to monitor the case closely,” said Catherine
Loubier, chief spokesman for Foreign Affairs Minister Lawrence Cannon.

“(We) will continue to explore all options for supporting Bashir Makhtal …
any aid decisions are made according to several criteria, with an aim at
helping those in need.”

Waldman said he did not expect the appeal to succeed. Cannon said on Monday
that Canada was “extremely disappointed” by the life sentence.

Makhtal, who was born in Ethiopia but became a Canadian citizen in 1994, was
found guilty last week on three charges related to membership of the Ogaden
National Liberation Front (ONLF). His grandfather was a founder of the
group.

The Ogaden Human Rights Committee (OHRC), which calls itself independent,
said Bashir was not a member of the ONLF and not involved in politics.

“On the basis of available information about his case, the OHRC believes
that there was not credible evidence for his conviction,” the group said in
a statement. “His trial was a travesty. (He is) a victim of a political
vendetta.”

Ethiopia says the ONLF — which wants independence for the eastern Ogaden
region — is a terrorist group supported by rival Eritrea. The ONLF accuses
the Ethiopian military of routinely killing civilians and burning villages.

Foreign oil and gas companies think Ogaden’s huge deserts might be rich in
mineral deposits. The ONLF has warned foreign companies their workers will
be attacked if they attempt exploration in the region.
