Bush had all but confessed his sins before announcing the "new strategy". He told that they had committed mistakes in Iraq. He explained that the present situation of Iraq was unstable and he assumed the political responsibility of this.
These confessions and its "new strategy" will neither be able to rescue the US imperialism. The US imperialism, which has spent more than 300 billion dollars for the Iraqi War until now, is face to face with one of the most important defeats of its history. The Iraqi resistance has condemned the occupiers to defeat. The occupant forces which have lost 3 thousand soldiers according to their official data and more than 25 thousand soldiers according to the data of the resistant forces are speaking about the "new strategy" which means new massacres in order to turn the defeat into a "victory". They think that they could make the Iraqi people surrender by sending 20 soldiers more as a new force and by increasing the number of the occupant forces.
The nucleus of the "new strategy" of the US imperialism consists in using intensified violence against everyone who stands against the occupant forces, without making any separation between the Sunnites and the Shiites, or between the groups who are in the active military resistance and who show a passive political resistance. First, the resistant forces will be cleaned out of Capital Baghdad. The districts will not be left after putting the resistant forces away; instead, the economical and political re-construction will begin in those places. After "liberating" Baghdad, the same plan will be implemented in other centres of resistance.
The "new strategy" of the US imperialism includes the strengthening of the Maliki government and the necessity of the implementation different measures by this government and not by the occupant forces. Moreover, an employment plan takes place in the "new strategy" in order to decrease the number of the unemployed and to gain the moderate elements to the ranks of occupation.
Another axe of the "new strategy" is to continue with increasing the tension of the relations with the region's states such as Iran and Syria, contrarily to what was suggested in the Baker-Hamilton Report. USA especially tries to legitimize a military operation against Iran. Iran is as important as the Iraqi resistance as an obstacle in front of the Middle East strategy of the US imperialism. Iran, which is being supported by EU, Russia and China and has an influence upon the Shiites in Iraq, has already turned into one of the greatest nightmares of the US imperialism.
When we look at the wars and occupations carried out by the US imperialism after the Second World War, we see that it is not an invulnerable force and it is not "omnipotent". In the Korean War, it took its lesson and it had to restrain itself with occupying the half of the country. It had to withdraw from Vietnam without looking back any more. It was "successful" only in Grenada with a surface of 344 km square and a population of 100.895 people. The American Army, together with the East Caribbean states, was able to occupy this little island on 25 October 1983.
Having difficulties in Vietnam, the US occupiers had to increase the number of the occupation forces continuously between 1961 and 1968. In 1968, the number of the American soldiers in Vietnam was 500 thousands. The same year, Clark Clifford, new US Minister of Defence of that period, announced that "Washington neither has a concept nor a general plan to win the war in Vietnam". But until that time, the US imperialism had spent a tremendous amount of money in order to make Vietnam surrender and had always spoken about new strategies and tactics.
US imperialism's "new plan" for Iraq reminds Vietnam in some aspects. The process of 1968, where USA was at its strongest period in Vietnam in terms of military, was at the same time the process where it was searching for the ways of leaving this country in a "self-respecting" manner. Now as well, they are trying to form the substructure of such a process. To weaken the resistance by using intensified military force and to strengthen the puppet regime to "leave the administration" to them and to withdraw the occupation forces. This, in some aspects, is the implementation of the plan which was suggested in the Baker-Hamilton report that was refused by Bush, and which is supported by most of the political representatives of the US monopolist bourgeoisie and the US public opinion. But the resistance movement that has achieved its political organisation on the national level and that struggles under a united commandership shows that this plan of the US imperialism is only a dream.
No strategy-making institution and nobody in USA, including Bush, believe that a military victory could be achieved in Iraq. In 2006 in Iraq, the US occupiers have come to the same point that they had come in 1968 in Vietnam.
As the demonstration in many cities of the USA with the participation of ten thousands of anti-war activists show, the Iraqi war has come to a new turning point. The opponents of the Vietnam War have taken the streets again and begun to speak about the similarities between the two situations.
The US imperialism, which has formed its geopolitics for the dream of establishing its world domination and world empire and has acted for this goal after the collapse of the social imperialist Soviet Union and the Revisionist Bloc, depending on its economical and especially military power, has begun to see that it will not be achieve its goal. For two reasons, the US imperialism has now been deeply occupied with keeping and strengthening its present situation: The countries such as Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Ecuador and Bolivia, which resist against neoliberalism and US domination in Central and South America that was defined by it as its "backyard"; the resistance in Afghanistan and Iraq and moreover, the anti-imperialist struggle increasing all over the world turns the plans of US imperialism into an empty dream. Beside this, the imperialist forces such as EU, Russia and China which remained silent for a certain while show that they will not permit that the USA would establish its world domination on its own.
The US imperialism will not be able to save itself from being defeated.
