The Caravan and Obama

By azadi, 18 December, 2008
Language
English

The election of Obama as US president blows a kind of hope into the dreams of simple minded people as if there will be some changes just to say that the US-regime may not be too bad and that there even exists so much democracy as to even allow a black man to become president. And a black president who even has somehow some relationship to Islam and Muslims may do a lot of good things!! Even if not doing anything good, at least his election can be regarded as a victory for black population!!!

Many people are really simple minded. They even don’t know that in this integrated world in the era of universal communication at least some months later than an Excellency person like Obama they haven’t heard anything about general cries in the world financial system. This simple minded people don’t know even when they (the big powerful states) cut down social services and limit them to harder qualifications and reasoning that they are not able to give those kinds of social services because of lack of money. So how can it be that all of a sudden the Bush administration is able to locate 700 billions of dollars and in the same way Merckel administration locates 500 billions euro to help the giant monsters of the world, the big financial companies.

The most pity point here is the sympathy and lining up of black and colored people with the victory of Obama. We are used to say that we are here (wandering and seeking asylum) because they are destroying our lands. So what about our regimes in our home lands? Are not they the lackeys of these big powers? Did we not escape our lands exactly because of the threats and dangers of these same native regimes? It is not funny to admire Obama while hundreds of thousands of Africans escaping their home because of the danger given by black governments in Africa. Many of them could not have even the chance to reach alive to a safe point? But some do not see this brighter than day light fact. Just when millions escape Iran because of the danger caused by the Islamic Republic of Iran threatening their life, there are some people who defend the Islamic Republic of Iran under the excuse of fighting against bigger powers, especially the USA. They neglect those who were tortured and defend torturers of the people under mentioned excuse that those torturers are the head of weaker country or because they are Muslims???

Public Media and different papers around the world are talking and writing about the victory of Obama. They are admiring him and discus about changes there were to come, and Obama enteres the stage like a hero. Perhaps, the people of the world have forgotten that at the same time when black people’s entrance to the restaurants of whites was forbidden, black waiters and servants at the doors were very dear for the clients, these black servants were the symbol of the high degree of the restaurant, beside that these servants were proud of having better situation than their fellow people.

In a public joined by the Caravan for the rights of refugees and migrants, in Bremen in Germany, which was about police brutality, the head of the police department also participated. His argument about this problem was to employing more foreigners in the police department!! The activist of Caravane were opposing his argument, and were discussing that there must not exist such laws which open the door for such brutality. In fact it is not important who wears that uniform, the point is the apparatus defending and fighting for the interest of which kinds of “people”.

Many are used to the gamble house of Capitalism. They work from morning till evening and evening till morning, but in the hope to become a millionaire they even use a mayor part of their income for buying lotto’s or playing other kind of bet. Oh yes, one out of thousands wins to be a rootless millionaire but at the cost of misery of others. Those who are addicted to the gamble casinos of capitalism do not see this simple fact.

The worst part of this comic tragedy is that in spite of the fact that we toiler people building this world, but always our eyes looking to the sky to those who are sitting over our shoulder, one hero, one king, one prophet…must decide for our fates??

Dear friends, capitalism has lost its legitimacy, because of reactionary wars and merciless exploitation and its result is this financial crisis. In this respect the Obama show is how they currently try to buy some credit for themselves. Don’t let them deceive the people in order to continue their dirty bloody system.

Der Kampf von Flüchtlingen braucht Geld!

Die Karawane ist maßgeblich auf Spenden angewiesen. Unsere Organisation besteht überwiegend aus Flüchtlingen, die (wenn überhaupt) nur über sehr geringe finanzielle Mittel verfügen. Aus diesem Grunde haben wir 2008 den „Förderverein Karawane e. V.” gegründet. Unser Verein ist als gemeinnützig anerkannt und kann deswegen auf Wunsch Spendenquittungen ausstellen, so dass sie steuerlich absetzbar sind. Wenn bei der Überweisung die Adresse mit angegeben wird, verschicken wir die Spendenbescheinigung automatisch spätestens am Anfang des Folgejahres.
