    Great post, MarkM!
    Keep it up, pretty soon you and Adam, and Anthony, and I will all be
    persona non grata in the MoQ forums. Just kidding... (I hope).

    Best,
    Mark Heyman

    Hi Platt,
    You very seriously need to begin reading 'Deterring democracy' by
    Noam Chomsky.
    For example, are you aware how much the American government approved
    of Mussolini when he came to power? Mussolini was described as, "a
    splendid chap."
    Mussolini was supported, as was Hitler, and both described as
    'moderates' by the US government of the time.
    This is a matter of congressional record. It is there in black and
    white.

    This stance changed considerably, as we both know. But what i wish
    for you to understand is this: If the US government's officially
    declared position is researched prior to the beginning of World war
    2, it is a matter of official documentation that the US preferred
    fascism to democracy in Italy and Germany.
    If you consult a map of Europe, you will note that England and France
    are in close proximity to Germany and Italy. It was England and
    France who had to deal with fascism on their doorstep, and not the
    US, who supported fascism as a matter of official record.

    Unless you are going to tell me that you, Platt Holden, know better
    than your own government's official records, you have no recourse but
    to agree with me.

    Please educate yourself to the facts Platt?
    You may do this a number of ways; the best way would be for you to
    research the congretional archives and disprove Noam Chomsky.

    By the way, Sadham Hussien was also described as a middle Eastern
    'moderate' when it suited the US in the 80's. (About the time he was
    being armed with nerve gas by Donald Rumsfeld.) I suppose we should
    all be thankful to the US for rescuing us from WMD's should we?

    All the best,
    Mark
