Re: Re: Re: Canada, Australia, Argentina

so you believe that Eldridge Cleaver's old dictum that "if you're
not part of the solution, you're part of the problem"? So the fact
that the US was "neutral" against the Spanish fascists during the
Civil War there indicates that the US was semi-fascist?


Lots of people refused to aid or tried to harm the Loyalist cause
during the Spanish Civil War (including, IMO, the Soviet Union--much
more interested in smashing Trotskyism than in defeating Franco).
IIRC, only four governments--Switzerland, Sweden, Franco's Spain, and
Peron's Argentina--had failed to join the United Nations by the end
of the war against Hitler.
