European Union

President Bush He stated having been informed by his Turkish counterpart and supported action to consider part of the international fight against terrorism. The European Union, by the mouth of Javier Solana, expressed the idea that the invasion is not the best answer and that the territorial integrity of Iraq is important, but without daring to go one step further. Well it is true that the U.S. has a shady past that do not want to remove, since anyone could remember him that actions by Kurdish separatists installed in Iraq in little differ from terrorist acts that, in a not-too-distant past, he perpetrated against Nicaraguan, armed, supplied and supported by us from neighboring Honduras. With the difference that the strike was promoted by U.S.

to topple a Government that did not show the due submission to Washington, while to the Kurdish independence movement has its roots in history and the hypocritical and selfish action of the powers that defeated the Ottoman Empire in world war I. Nor Europe has clear conscience: for what the Kurds may not aspire to the same independence that the international community just give generously to the Albanian minority in Serbia, established in Kosovo? Question that only has an answer: because you are not able to exert the force sufficient degree or gain the support of some most powerful country that Yes can exercise it. Answer that leaves no open way to very dangerous and unpredictable impact on the planet. Spain is also not free of guilt: was President of the legitimate Spanish Government who helped trigger the greatest violation of the international order that has become known in recent times: the invasion of Iraq in 2003, whose consequences still ensangrentaran to the world for some years. Nicaragua, Kurdistan, Iraq the list could be expanded much. But, at this point, warn a bug in this column: is in the title. It is not force, as a determining factor in international relations, is returning, because we never had abandoned. The bitter reality is that the international bodies created to preserve succeeding generations from the scourge of war (as literally stated the UN Charter) seems as if they had only served to coat with a slight varnish of apparent progress the violence prevailing in States that mark the direction of the sore tribe of humans.
