  1. He gets to a specific point in this lecture about fascist language, and how it was used as a verbal blanket of diversion agaist the Jewish population - "they are all Bolshevik's," and how this is being used by Israel aganst the Palestinians and Arabs in general. "We can't let them into Europe or the US, they are all Bolshevik's (during the Holocaust)," is the same as "they are all terrorists."

    Tarik is kind by asking the question about why they cannot see Zionists are doing the same thing that the Nazis did with the language of fascism - I am not that kind. It is exactly the same thing and they are using it consciously and purposefully!  Listen to this and tell me this is not the same process -

  2. One might add the blanket description of protesters against Zionist outrages as "anti-semites".

  5. Well, to be simple, we have one of two ways to go with this country - we will either go the way of the people or empire, you cannot go both ways at the same time.  So it is either pull back from all of the international domination bullshit, or what is going on here will turn into a ten plus year depression worse than anything experienced in the 20th century.

  6. :-E   TGIA, you must not have seen my correction when I said I had twins.  That was just a joke for the father's day post to Jehovah, the space banker!  I just politely asked him not to smite innocent children as he is inclined  to do ;) (at least in the Old Testament.)

     But your kindness is on the record. LOL
