I bloc with the Trotskyists (esp. a local pal on the S.F. Labor Council who if he was in France would be in the Daniel Bensiad group, the League Communist Revolutionaire, D.W. not Adam, Thomas!) on this list at yahoogroups.com . Others on the list are self described (I hate that journalistic phrase) Stalinists, Maoists and even fans of Hoxha's Albania. (Like the son of Gunnar Myrdal, Jan, who wrote a book on Albania with Gun Kessle that Monthly Review Press translated in the early 70's. Embarrassing stuff, I read a bit of it a few months ago at the World Affairs Council library in S.F. Jan, btw, dabbles in the Holocaust Revisopnist garbage peddled by two other French ultra-leftists, Serge Thion of the La Vielle Taupe circle and the former PCF intellectual, Roger Garaudy. Garudy can be found on the Radio Islam website, where the Protocols can be found as well...)
Now, where I? Heh! Michael Pugliese --------------------------
This slander of Jan Myrdal is disgusting. Myrdal, like Noam Chomsky, is a defender of free speech. He defended the right of Faurisson's book to be publsihed. He has been an anti-fascist all his life.
