SA@Takimag - George Will Leaves the War Party

[jasonkozdra]

You are so right.

How are we, who are destroying our own nation, qualified for 'nation building'? And again, "nation building"--not in the Constitution.

[Mavrilon]

In the last 2,500 years the Persians,the Greeks,the Romans,the Monguls, the Russians,the British and the Soviets have all tried to control Afghanistain, they have all failed !

The War Party,which is just an adjunct of the Military-Industrian Complex would have this nation waring on every country in the world that had some resource they desired.They want to stay in Afghanistan to protect the oil pipe line runnning from the Caucasus to the Indian Ocean ports in Indian and Pakistan. .GREED !

Your concluding twelve seconds is excellent.

And conservative comedians should follow suit, too! lol

The text in your video should be larger, especially when it is your text.

Not best described as neoconservatives. Best described as fascist war mongers.

What exactly is a "fascist"? I hear that term bandied about all the time but I confess I have no idea exactly what a "fascist" is. Is "fascist" simply

an all-purpose epithet with no real meaning beyond indicating that the person being called it

is a bum or does it have a real definition?

Planetaryjim, enquiring minds want to know.

[planetaryjim]

Check out an online dictionary if you have trouble with definitions. A fascist is an advocate of fascism. "A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, stringent socioeconomic controls, suppression of the opposition through terror and censorship, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism." Which covers people like Obama and Hillary as well as Cheney and Bush.

[maxsnafu]

Peoples usage of a term is often at variance with what is found in a dictionary. The definition you

quoted could apply to both Nazism and Soviet

Communism. Are they both fascists?

[planetaryjim]

Yes, with the possible exception that the Soviets were at least nominally in favor of an internationalism that is slightly at variance with fascism per se. The Nazis and Mussolini were more traditional nationalists in this respect. The Soviet Union was excoriated by a great many communist ideologues, and I'm not the first to identify its policies with fascism.

Brilliant!
