33197 Anti-Zionism Is Racism -- rank: 1000
LeoCasey at aol.com wrote, long ago: If Zionism is racism, so is every nationalism. Yup. Etienne Balibar: "Racism is not an 'expression' of nationalism, but a supplement of nationalism or more precisely a supplement internal to nationalism, always in excess of it, but always indispensable to its constitution and yet always still insufficient to achieve its project, just as nationalism is both indispensable and always insufficient to achieve the formation of the nation or the project of a 'n ...

33198 Goldman Sachs: scrap the strong dollar policy -- rank: 1000
Amazing news: Goldman Sachs, former home of Robert Rubin, leading architect of the Clinton administration's strong dollar policy, now says: "The time has come to scrap the strong dollar policy. It was appropriate when the US economy was in a boom and dollar appreciation helped to keep inflation pressures in check. But it now works at cross-purposes to the goal of stimulating demand, and it undermines US international trade competitiveness." To quote JFK, this is almost like L'Osservato ...

So Colin Powell, Sarah Jones, Louis Farrakhan, Maxine Waters, Chris Rock, and Charlie Rangel should get together in a room and do this?

Of course. Racial categories exist in consciousness and behavior, and it'd be silly to pretend they don't. The question is what we do about that. I don't think the answer is to embrace some kind of turnab ...

33210 Zionism vs. Black Nationalism -- rank: 1000
Very belatedly... Wow. I wish the white bourgeois mentality were as cosmopolitan as Art McGee seems to think it is. I heard some horrific stories in Australia about the treatment of aborigines - just rounding up people & shooting them en masse. And of course there's the wretched treatment of racial(ized) minorities in the U.S. So where is all this cosmopolitanism? And why is the unit of "self-determination" a racialized group? Why is "Africa" the whole, and not Nigerians, ...
