Re: [Marxism] Iran sanctions vote signals a global rift

[dave.walters@xxxxxxxxxxx]

"The opponents of the ANC are delighted by the news that the
South African government voted for these new sanctions, though
opponents of the ANC government aren't exactly known for their
support for Iran in the world. For them it's more like gloating."

Walter, this is basically slanderous toward EVERYONE who has 
criticized the ANC. Since you make no distinction, *ever*,  between
 those that are "opponents" of the ANC and who defend Iran against 
these same sanctions and other imperialism agressors and those 
mythical strawmen you'd like to see who have this made up position 
of yours. In fact "we", people who have real differences with the ANC,
are BETTER defenders of Iran than you could ever be, because you
are intellectually dishonest in your "defense" if Iran.

In fact, thinking about this list, just about everyone who has 
criticized (and I actually can't think of an exception right now) 
the ANC has also defended Iran.

What I would be on is that EVERY critic of the ANC wishes 
that it had NOT jumped on the bash-Iran bandwagon and in 
fact DEFENDED the right of Iran to seek solutions to it's energy crisis.

You have to see how *immature* it is on your part to state 
what you did, and how it exposes you as a syncophant of the 
ANC. Why, Walter, do tell: what do you think of the ANC's 
*betrayal* of the Iranian gov't fight with imperialism? Simply 
an "error" perhaps? Maybe a misunderstanding. I only hopy 
there is no one at all who thinks like you do in S. Africa OR 
Iran. I'm hoping the ANC left, whatever that might constitute, 
tackles this question in the ANC and reverses it.

Perhaps had you askd the question this way, you would not 
come off as you have: Is anyone suprsied that the ANC has 
sided with the US inspired embargo against Iran? That would 
of been a better, more truthful way of poising the question.

So Walter, do tell?

David
