Gordon Fitch (related to Bob, Doug's friend, btw?)>Well, now, let's not over-abuse the ghost of the seminarian Dzhugashvili here. There was an ingrained culture of anti-Semitism in Russia and eastern Europe which predated the advent of the Communist regimes by several centuries, and which, according to my ex-Soviet friends and colleagues, has outlived it as well. Fun as it may be to heap the shabby corpse with obloquy, not every gob available belongs upon it.

Duh, another reference, I forget to mention, because it was on the bedstand..."The Black Hundreds, " by Walter Laqueur. On Russian anti-semitism from the far right and neo-Stalinist left (Zyuganov) and their merging in such figures as Alexander Dugin.

Chris Doss, rightly, thinks I hyperventilate on the threat of Russo fascism. Better safe than sorry, though. Michael Pugliese, hiding underneath the bed...
