<html><body> <DIV>So the quarrel  is with the CounterPunch website/publication generally. But apparently not with the article posted which was by a former resident of NOLA and whose work  has appeared or has been cited in other forums as well, as no evidence  of poor fact checking or general inaccuracy has been pointed out.  The author is no neo-nazi or conspiracist (judging from his other work and his political affiliation). What it seems to  boil down to is that Woj, Doss and Pugliese don't like Cockburn and Saint Clair, and that fact alone discredits everything they or their contributors say - At least the Spartacist League take more  trouble to address the substance of their opponent's arguments than what I have seen in this thread.
