I've been waiting patiently for Louis to post this article on what's happening in Syria like he posts everything else from the New York Times: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/04/opinion/syrias-crumbling-pluralism.html I can only conclude that his contract with Susan Rice's office precludes him from posting anything that casts a negative light on the Syrian "revolution." (Yes, that was a joke. At least, I hope it was.)
You are a sympathizer of a group that backed Russian tanks in Hungary and Chinese tanks in Tienanmen Square. So no wonder you are trying to figure out ways to make the opposition to al-Assad look bad. If there were no Jihadists in Syria, you'd still find ways to justify the status quo in Syria.
It never fails to amaze me how people with rebellion flowing through every capillary in their body when it comes to the US ruling class can turn into what amounts to worshippers of authority in countries like Syria, China or Iran. They become the counterparts of FOX-TV, which I suppose outlets like rt.com and www.presstv.ir amount to.
I guess I need to reread Junius Scales's memoir. ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: Marxism@greenhouse.economics.utah.edu Set your options at: http://greenhouse.economics.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
