On Oct 23, 2007, at 4:59 PM, Jerry Monaco wrote: > The paretheses was misplaced. Sorry. Does that defeat the argument? No. But the argument was defeated from the start, since it posits some force, presumably on the left and not in the bourgeoisie, that devotes "every breath" to the criticism of Iran. No such force exists. You would search in vain for any U.S. left outlet - print, electronic, organizational - that devotes more time or space to criticism of Iran than to critici ...

9852 [lbo-talk] fascism week -- rank: 1000
On Oct 23, 2007, at 3:29 PM, Wojtek Sokolowski wrote: > Now, what is wrong with Western liberalism? For me, at least two things: 1) its individualist basis and its limited conception of freedom (absence of constraint rather than providing the capabilities for development) and 2) its frequent suspension in colonial and neocolonial adventures, which are anything but liberal.
