“The Euston Manifesto calls for nothing short of what happened in 1938 Germany. Placed back in that time, this piece of work would have called for support of the actions of Adolf Hitler.”

Well, that picture of him in full regalia shows how hard he tries to be taken seriously….
I like him. I admire his honesty and his ability to sum up, in a concise and straightforward manner, the primary theme underlying the criticism directed towards the EM:-

What can I say fellow EMsters? They’re onto us.
My reading comprehension skills have apparently degraded, and badly, cos I’ve read the EM several times and at no point have I thought “hmm, yes….yes, that does look very facist, now I think about it.” Each time I read it, in fact, I nod my head and say “well, of course….of course…I agree…well, doesn’t everyone?” Because it really does just about sum up my thinking on most topics.

Yeah. He makes it crystal clear to me that I am either Hitler or a clone of thereof.

My ideological Zionist intellectual heart swells at the thought I contributed in some way. […]
