COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE INDEPENDENT
"Noam Chomsky:
Antifa is a gift to the far right and US state repression"
I think that may well be right, Mr. Chomsky.
But the truth is that the situation with Antifa closely
parallels your own.
Your long-standing position in America effectively supports
the terrible abuse and oppression of Palestinians by Israel.
That ghastly situation in the Mideast is an American
imperial creation, but your brand of criticism from the left leaves it
untouched as though it were something entirely unrelated to the America you so
readily criticize for so many other things.
And your position effectively supports the horrible Neocon
wars raging through the Mideast, all of them having to do with reshaping the
Mideast to accommodate Israel, wars having killed a couple of million and made
hopeless refugees of millions more.
