Regime change: Capitalist militarism and Communist propaganda-The Philippines

War
of
Aggression



1975

United
Nations
Invasions, coups, and other military actions against sovereign states after 1975 without international mandate are illegal under the spirit of international law according to the precedent set by the United Nations General Assembly's Resolution 3314

Also note that incidents of warfare post-1945 are also violations of the Nuremberg trials under Principle VI (a) (i) :
"War of aggression"
This, arguably, makes most
US presidential doctrines well-documented evidence of premeditation to commit
crimes against international law

Invasions are the most extreme form of miltary intervention, military coups next, then support with arms trade and supply. These are the Jackals. Finally, the Economic Hitmen threaten and bribe. This deals with other countries, for the most part. Right-wing think tanks propagandize on the US' behalf, but this has far less effect on other countries; it is mostly to control the Congressional committees they report to, and to a lesser extent, for the benefit of the US people. This is the US model of regime change.

The USSR and other communist governments have been painted by history as worse than the US, but when one considers their list of means, a completely different picture is seen. Their most extreme method is backing coups. They may support with arms, and it seems doubtful that they threaten and bribe, or if so, it is impossible for them to have done this to the same extent and depth as the US. What they do, that the US rarely does, is exhort their supporters in other countries with literature. This was the modus operandi of activist organizations furnished with revolutionary literature by a subdivision of the Comintern. What were called "Communist Fronts" during the Cold War are not only not controlled by communist countries, but actually have far less power in their own country than the think tanks that are their counterparts: they do not in the slightest have the ear of Congress.

It would be fair to call the war in the Philippines a "secret war", inasmuch as it has received a relatively tiny amount of coverage, considering it was activated at the same time as the war in Afghanistan, and even goes by the same Operation name: Enduring Freedom. More importantly, it made obvious the War for Inequality; two of its branches, the War for Capitalism and the War against Islam are represented simultaneously.

And this is one rare occasion when the war is not a proactive and unopposed incursion into desired territory by the US, but a reaction to a more communistic state acting on its own in that most nonviolent of all regime change attempts, the propaganda of exhortation of the citizenry. In short, global activism. If we see the US as a violent bully that will not allow itself to be inconvenienced even in the slightest way, then we may say, no wonder Libya, the source of this propaganda, was invaded.

COLONEL GADDAFI'S shadowy international revolutionary organisation Mathaba, established in the Libyan capital of Tripoli and dispensing funds to liberation movements around the world, is run by a most unlikely radical. Tunku Mohammed Hassan di Tiro, a Sumatran prince, fervent Muslim and bitter opponent of Indonesia, is the chairman of Mathaba's political committee.... Hassan di Tiro himself makes the crucial decisions, and runs a personal network of contacts with the liberation movement leaders Libya supports, among them Jacob Prai of the OPM (Free Papua Movement) of West Papua and Yann Ce- tene Uregei of New Caledonia's Kanak radical faction,
In an exclusive interview with Pacific Islands Monthly, at his headquarters in Tripoli, he outlined Mathaba's organisation and aims for the Asia Pacific region. The Mathaba Against Imperialism, Racism, Zionism and Fascism, to give the front its
the various independence movements active across the Indonesian Archipelago, including his own Aceh Sumatra Liberation Front. "We are making advances against Indonesia, both on the ground and diplomatically, with Fretilin (East Timor Liberation Front), the OPM, the Republic of the South Moluccas; we are all one.
