Why, they just love Jews! See, they even have a Jewish division." Which is factually true. So what? "Fascist" does not mean "opposed to Jews over all others." Otherwise Kach and Kahane Chai couldn't possibly be fascists either, and Mussolini would have never had a single Jewish supporter. A man who hears of European fascism, and starts his investigation of it by looking for attacks on Jews, is a man living a number of decades ago. If you want to debate with RT.com, the place to do it is their comments section. -- "Hige sceal þe heardra, heorte þe cenre, mod sceal þe mare, þe ure mægen lytlað." ________________________________________________ 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
