I was going to pass this one by, but then I would be part of the
problem wouldn't I? To say that someone is responsible for an action
which he neither advocates nor participates in, is rediculous. There are
actions being taken all over the world. How can anyone take actions to
stop all of them? This is obvious. But you protest: "I mean local
actions"? Which of these? And if I don't watch the news am I not
responsible for stopping the actions reported there? This gets
rediculous very quickly. Then there is the question of the actions that
redeem one. Does writing your Congressman fulfill your obligation or
must one run for office, etc?

CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance—not soapboxing! These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
