Re: [Marxism] The Yugoslav "solution" for Venezuela?



As an internationalist, I have a real problem with using the word "traitor" as
a put-down. And as a U.S.-born person of Jewish ethnicity, I am probably
regarded (with some justification) as a traitor both by Zionist Jews and
AmeriKKKan patriots.

OTOH, agents of U.S. imperialism should be dealt with summarily whenever and
wherever anti-imperialists can get at them, regardless of whether they are
traitors to an oppressed nation or patriots of the imperialist fatherland.
