That's a very strong point. It's possible to be opposed to what are 
currently dominant international hegemonic powers, but still be offering an 
even more reactionary alternative. If there had not been a very significant 
Marxist left in Germany in the 1920s, I wonder if some of the same arguments 
might have been used to defend German fascism, in its earlier days, against 
US, British and French imperialism?
