Which Marx are you referring to? The one who supported Prussia's war against France? The one who wrote sympathetically about England's subjugation of India?

The Marx of the Manifesto? Or the Marx of Capital (this is the Marx I have the most use for)? The Theses on Feuerbach Marx?

You let me know which Marx you're referring to, and I'll let you know if my opinions accord with his.

Because I don't see any satisfactory solution to the conflict which has any possibility of being realistically applied.

If you have some ideas, I'd be interested to hear them, though I would probably have some criticisms as well.

Disregard for what?

If anybody is soliciting my sympathy, I will be happy to give it, but only on a case by case basis.

I was thinking of people blowing themselves up in pizza parlors and on buses.

Am I being vague?
