[lbo-talk] errata corrige (was: US anti-imperialists mourning saddam...Really?)

Sorry, it seems that all the hype here in Italy about this controversial
manifestation was
fabricated: in fact there has never been any fascist involved, but this
framing helped most of the left to escape the issue of the legitimacy of

Sorry for the inconvenience.
