The difference though that Hezbollah's victories over the Israeli infantry even pleased all types of people, that for the Marxists at least, no imperial army can live forever in the face of a will. Hezbollah and Hamas represents the sentiments of a large faction of supporters who had no choice given the other alternative in their lifestyle but to encourage them. Now think of the impact if the Boleshevic ideologies are restored, and mobilize all the people of the region into the common enemy that keeps the Zionists alive, Capitalism and the US Corporations that support the US presidents ... <BR/><BR/>BTW, Renegade, all media here refer to Gaza as the Holocaust over here... I hope you are able to download videos from the BBC or al-Jazeera, much love from Beirut to you dear Comrade...<BR/><BR/>Best Regards<BR/>MFLMarxistFromLebanonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02742943269564177293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24861026.post-42473432639148327342009-01-17T07:02:00.000+02:002009-01-17T07:02:00.000+02:00Graeme moved to Minneapolis.

This weekend Graeme is returning from visiting them in Hanoi and Danang.<BR/><BR/>Tomorrow is a rally against Israel in Minneapolis. The Stalinists (Maoist) only provide the analysis that Hamas is a "serve the people" organization. Coming from a supposed Marxist group, that is criminal. They tale the Islamists.<BR/><BR/>Many of those opposed to Israel's incursion, stupidly call for the UN to help. Those people are supposed "anti-imperialists." Nothing has been as bad as "The Road Map To Peace" for Palestine.<BR/><BR/>Things can change fast. Remember 1905 Russia the working class was led by the church. That didn't last.Frank Partisanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03536211653082893030noreply@blogger.com
