Re: [Marxism] Petras on Israel's total war

[nada <dwaltersMIA@xxxxxxxxx>]

I don't have to 'smear' Petras (he does a good enough job himself) but 
rather his inaccuracy in stating that anti-war organizations have not 
endorsed opposition to what is going on in Gaza.

Here:
"...To date the entire human rights and anti-war movements have failed to
even mention, let along challenge..." ...what? The "zioninist controlled 
media"? Please. Every time someone marches for Gaza, or speaks out (is 
Petras doing this or preaching to the converted?) they as "challenging" 
the lies put of by the media.

His paragraph is...what? Useless? It is a self-serving statement frought 
with implied ego on his part that only he could possible challange these 
news organizations. "They will play no restraining role on Israel¹s 
totalitarian policies..." What a sanctimonious piece of shit. I read 
this and I would conclude "do nothing, go a home, read what I write, 
that's enough". He seems to be a writer that revels in, and sees 
pessimism, as a virtue.
