Re: [Marxism] Has Ahmadinejad ever read Kinsey?



david@xxxxxxxxxxxxx:

It depends. Personally I think we have to apply tactical wisdom here, and
not merely try to "deduce" things from first principles. We need to consider
what happens when we denounce Ahmadinejad.

Quote from Trotsky: "A fresh lesson: after the imperialist 'peace' at Munich",
October 10, 1938:

"Mussolini & his associates, as far as one can gather, are atheists [...] The
King of Britain and his ministers [...] believe not only in the devil but in
the devil's grandmother. Yet this does not mean that a war between Italy and
England would be a war of science against religion [...] In the event of a war
waged by the bey of Tunis against France, progress would be on the side of the
barbarian monarch and not that of the imperialist republic. Hygiene occupies an
important part in human culture. But when a murder is involved, the question of
wheter the murderer washed his hands beforehand is not of decisive importance".
