I suspect old people who can't remember what I say of Alzheimer's.  I
suspect younger people of ADD.  In either case I have a principle of
repeating myself seven times and no more.

Sorry, Lawrence, if you can't take the time to repeat or summarize what we
need to do after advocating FIGHTING BACK (your emphasis), then your
position is just empty emotionalism, a vague generalized fear, an obsession,
which you cannot support with specifics.  And what do the capital letters
mean?  Are you referring to a title of a book?  If so, what does its author
advocate?

No, no, Irene.  Capital letters dont mean that at all. They mean the thing
that Ive been saying over and over again since 9/11.  The thing you
shouldnt have to ask me about since Ive advocated it so incessantly.

Hitler as well as Pound admired Mussolini.  Hitler patterned himself on

Mussolini.  Mussolini's Black Shirts were the prototype for Hitler's Brown

Shirts (S.A.).   Hitler had this thing for Mussolini (not the other way

around) and stood by him through Mussolini's 'adventures' in Ethiopia and

Greece.  Their brands of fascism were very similar.  Some historians say

that if Hitler hadn't spent so much energy on bailing Mussolini out of

Greece that he might have succeeded in Russia. 

 

For Lawrence, you said in your post in big letters that we need to be

FIGHTING BACK.  Your emphasis.  Kindly supply specifics of how we are to do

that, i.e., politically, militarily, economically, just how?   Surely if

you're advocating something in capital letters you have some idea of what

you're advocacy looks like?
