The dangerous game of occident
México. - On foot it, in camel or for sea, millions of pilgrims have undertaken per centuries the one in route to ‘La Meca’, when carrying out the trip we go into to the mysteries of the Hajj that over and over again we ignore the non Muslims. This religious manifestation of the heart of the Islam is one of the biggest of the world, and it is the only road to know the sacred territory and to understand what means for the Muslims through the centuries. This Hajj is supposed that all faithful one should make it once in its life, whenever he has health and economical means.

The oldest road used by the pilgrims is ‘the Arab route’ Bagdad-La-Meca, along this road they settled wells, marks, and areas of rest. One of the boy scout that began this route for the Westerners was Thomas Cook, official operator of this religious trip starting from the British Indians and like evidence finds a ticket. Other boy scout of pleasing memories is Richard F. Burton who was able to enter to the disguised ‘La Meca’, and to countersign the success it transformed it into a book. Evelyn Cobbold, a Scotswoman that although it was not officially converted, she obtained the permission of the local authorities in 1933 to make the pilgrimage to the 65 years.

This trip toward the first sacred place of the Islam located in Saudi Arabia, was a true epic poem, by means of the Hajj the pilgrims can they visit a black cube that attracts as imam to thousands of fanatic: the Kaaba cubic sanctuary located in the center of the gigantic patio of the Great Mosque of La Meca. Only to imagine the enormous logistical, social, commercial problems and of security that is to manage with 3 million pilgrims -2010 -. Although we remember some sad events as that of 1990, they perished a thousand 426, most suffocated in an avalanche in a tunnel, and the last event in 2006, where 364 people died squashed in a human stampede.

Main Iran producing of petroleum
The diplomatic, economic offensive and police of West against Iran are developed starting from a logical double: on one hand, the European nations (EU), and United States of America (The States) they look for to liquidate and the minimum thing to subject to a State with independent determination and sovereign; for the other one, to propitiate the emergence of new scenarios pre-warlike and warlike, when the wars against Iraq and Afghanistan are out, in a scenario of economies despaired in the one that the military industry seems to be the only one able to take out to the countries of the European Union of the cliff in which has sunk them the limitless financial speculation.





In this context it becomes relevance the Iranian of Petroleum minister's declaration, Rostam Qasemi who yesterday noticed that its country prepares to interrupt the supply of raw to some countries, presumably that some days ago promoted the European seizure to the exports of hydrocarbons of Iran. On the other hand, Ahmad Qalebani, vice minister of the field and direct of the state company of petroleum, it pointed out that the price of the barrel of petroleum in the international markets can end up being between 120 and 150 dollars the barrel as a consequence of the European prohibition of caring Iran’s oil.

Independently of the possibilities of the clients from Iran of diversifying their sources of supply oil tanker and of an increment of the production of Iraq, Libya and Saudi Arabia, to play with the stability of the markets energy World cups constitutes a serious responsibility of the EU and of The States, since to the rises and fallen drastic of the rates of the petroleum, they usually have disastrous effects for most of the economic segments, particularly for the countries fewer developed and for the salary earners, without it distinguish of nationality and residence; certainly, they are affected by the recession that originates in the south of Europe and that, in the immediate thing, it projects an ominous perspective toward the rest of the world.

Have an accident nuclear
But apart from the negative economic consequences that it can bring harnessed the hostility of Brussels and of Washington against Iran, this pursuit is condemnable because it lacks foundation according to the international normatively, it constitutes an unjustifiable aggression to a sovereign State and it already increases the probabilities of a new warlike conflict in a region desolated by the wars. They aware of this perspective, and in an apparent flirtation with the American conservative vote, Barak Obama's administration increases the military presence of the country of the bars and the stars in the Persian’s Gulf and in the surroundings of the strategic strait of Ormuz, in what constitutes another slope of the dangerous western game.

Such an increase of forces, especially naval, can take in any moment to a skirmish, even accidental that in turn detonates a warlike escalade of consequences are not foregone for the zone. The fence should cease and for it is necessary that the European and American societies make hear its voice before their respective governments, and they discourage them of undertaking a new colonial war that, in spite of the calculations of those who dream of obtaining utility of the destruction and of the death, it would be necessarily disastrous for all.
