Rabin presided over the military campaign against the Intifada. As

Hayek's Road to Serfdom is a well reasoned exposition of the progressive
myth. It is a version of that myth, not a critique. If one buys the myth --
as most well socialized Westerners do -- and if you value "rationality"
highly, Hayek's thesis is persuasive.
Those who do not buy the myth of pr
Today I tried twice, unsuccessfully, to unsubscribe from Pen-l.
The reason was the intemperate reply to Tom Walker's "shalom" note on Rabin.
There will be plenty of time to reassess Yitzhak Rabin's contribution to
history. To begin to demonize him on the very day of his funeral, when he

I'm totally against political assassinations, but Rabin himself
said it about a week ago when a leader of Hamas was assassinated
(according to Professor Gary Sick, likely due to Israeli
efforts): those who live by violent means tend to die by violent

For some reason, nothing seems to divide the left so quickly as questions
about Jewish politics. I have been happy to see that subject absent from
pen-l.
Rather than get ourselves immersed in questions of Rabin and his policies,
could we leave it pass.
I will begin by refraining to interject m

Isn't _that_ too bad?
Don't worry -- talk will tail off as soon as the Establishment
signals they want it to end by taking it off

For a well-developed critique of Hayek that implicitly (although not
explicitly) draws on Dewey, see Hilary Wainwright's ARGUMENTS FOR A NEW LEFT.
Dewey viewed the knowledge-creating and -disseminating function of
participative organization to be a fundamental basis for democracy. I will
forgive
People, Yitzhak Rabin was hardly a "warrior of peace" as the bourgeois
media emphasizes. He was, first and foremost, a military man, part of a
command structure, not a "democratic" polity. He knew exactly what he
was doing when engineering Israeli "security" and butchering unarmed
Palestinia

Apologies to Michael perelman, but i think we should be allowed at
least some room to exchange views on this issue. Pen-l is mainly for
economics, yes, but we have gotten to know each other (in my case over
a 3-year period on this list), and on a seldom occasion I feel a need
to express my thought

I guess that I underestimated the level of sophistication of pen-l.
I have seen so much energy wasted by so-called enemies of anti-semitism
that bristle everytime something critical of Israel emerges, that I wanted
to avoid that sort of garbage here.

Wait a minute. Most coverage I have seen makes it clear that he was
militaristic. And no liberals I know dispute the plight of Palestineans, or how
they were placed in their situation.
