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 don?t mean that at all. They mean the thing
that I?ve been saying over and over again since 9/11. The thing you shouldn?t
have to ask me about since I?ve 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?
