Thanks for your most gracious compliment, Javad. And I might note
that I have been impressed with some of the comments you have made in some
posts lately. You might want to venture over to the downwithcapitalism
list and view some of its postings, as it resembles MLL. That is where I
got the article. Stoller is there, as is Bill Howard, who has been posting
there a lot lately. I am on both. It does have some anarchists and
crypto-Trots, however. And it does have some criticism of Stalin. Lately
I have been in a running debate over Stalin with Stoller. Usually
Stoller's commentaries are pretty good, but he has a mind-bloc when it
comes to Stalin because of having been taken in by a lot of bourgeois
propaganda.
Fraternally,
Klo
