You got me. I looked.
Buttplug and Misfud look nothing alike...
(Misfud pics are few.)

LOL! I don’t believe I’ve seen a picture of Buttie’s dad. Mifsud probably has the perfect nondescript intelligence operative face.
I think Buttie Elder came to US - or was at least teaching in US in the 70s. Mifsud was supposedly at the U of Malta in the 80s. They may not have directly been connected, but perhaps had friends/teachers/associates in common. I’m guessing that because the education field is so innundated with Marxist ideology, that Buttie Elder and Mifsud, (education PhD that he is,) shared that Marxist bent.

Dad was 10 years older than Mifsud.
What seems another weird is, 2 guys from Malta separated by a generation both have interests in Ireland ?
