P.S. To John Lacny, and others. This Bill White, I'm sure is an isolated nutcase. I bring up this stuff, more to present "Third Position" and other related ideological currents to those not acquainted with this fascist bilge. Given how the estalishment, is gonna try to "recuperate" and co-opt the less militant and more center-right forces in the anti-globalization movement, it is worth keeping an eye on. Better, the left does than the neo-cons at the ADL or the Southern Poverty Law Center.
