Re: [Marxism] More Anti-Fidel Crap From Sam Farber

[Shane Mage <shmage@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

"jscotlive" cites an article containing this "anti-Fidel crap":

He also condemned, in 1968, the emergence of various political 
tendencies in Czechoslovakia and supported the USSR's invasion of 
that country on the grounds that, as he tells Ramonet, Czechoslovakia 
"was marching toward a counterrevolutionary situation, toward 
capitalism and into the arms of imperialism?[starting] from the 
[initially] just demands, they arrived at a frankly reactionary 
politics. And we had to approve, bitterly and painfully, that 
military intervention." (522)

I agree.  Crap it is,  and by defending the indefensible the author
quoted by Ramonet is certainly serving to advance anti-Fidel sentiment.
