“Creating a terrifying threat - hydra-like, secretive, evil - is an old trick.”
Can you say “global warming?”
The number 1 thing that must be done, which these MScuM and the Democra#s constantly (or at least used to) push: DISARM THE POPULATION!
Seems Naomi is 0 for 10 when you read her non-sequetors.
When whacked out things happen that make you go HUH????, who is behind them? The left.
Which political direction do you go to get closer to Fascism, communism and national socialism? LEFT.
So this is what Naomi Wolf has been reduced to, eh? Kook columns in overseas newspapers? Ha ha!
He’s just taken six years so far. He’ll be able to transfer the project to his cohort in crime in 2008 when the Democrats win the WH by controlling the MSM.
This is ALL I needed to read to know this whole thing was a complete liberal whining session...
(2) It's interesting that the Gruniad singles out Hitler and Pinochet - a non-Communist leftist and a conservative, respectively - and ignores Communist dictators of the past like Stalin, Pol Pot, Ho Chi Minh; Communist dictators who are still with us, like Mugabe and Castro and Communist dictators who are just getting started, like Chavez.
(3) The Gruniad ignores the fact that Hitler and Pinochet, two very different individuals with very different philosophies who made radically different responses, were both confronted not with imaginary enemies but with large and well-armed cadres of enemies who were willing to use force to impose Communist totalitarianism on their countries.
(4) Unlike 1930s Germany or 1970s Chile, 2000s America does not have large cohorts of violent Communists calling for the overthrow of the government.
The Gruniad allows its deep and abiding love for Communist dictatorships and its late-stage BDS to blind it to reality.
I wish one of these clowns would explain how if things are as bad as they claim: WHY THE HELL AREN’T THEY IN A CAMP SOMEWHERE?
Right. Like the press that declared Iraq was a quagmire after 2 weeks. Or that declared that sexual assault was enough to keep a Republican off of the Supreme Court or be removed from the Senate but thought rape by a Democrat was his own personal matter? That press? Or faked documents are evidence but real stolen evidence isn't newsworthy? The list goes on and on.
Ever notice how fascism keeps falling in America but landing Europe?
Support came from a quarter I hadn’t counted on. It was [Gunther] Grass, speaking in English.“For the past hour I have had my eyes fixed on the door here,” he said. “You talk about fascism and police repression. In Germany when I was a student, they come through these doors long ago. Here they must be very slow.”

1 Invoke a terrifying internal and external enemy
Yup, no terrorist and Islamist threat. It's all made up.
Spanish citizens know that they face a grave security threat; what we as American citizens believe is that we are potentially threatened with the end of civilisation as we know it. Of course, this makes us more willing to accept restrictions on our freedoms.
That's because we ARE, and mimicing Spanish appeasement isn't the American way. We've seen how that's worked out for the Spanish and other appeasers throughout history, and we (or at least most of us) want none of it!
What if, in a year and a half, there is another attack - say, God forbid, a dirty bomb?
Huh? I thought the whole threat from the Islamists was just a ploy, namely "Invok[ing] a terrifying internal and external enemy," so GW Bush, who is really Hitler's clone, could take over. Which is it?
Bah, the rest is just as inane -- not worth the time to shred.
What a bunch of BS. Just when you think that the left can’t get any loonier, you read something like this.
Its fascinating to me that the extra authorizations for the national guard noted by Naomi are the result of the hyping of Katrina disaster against President Bush. Ironically, Leftist Bush bashing leads to the very increase in presidential power the Left pretends to be scared of.
Janet Reno sent jackbooted thugs armed with full-auto sturmgewehren to save the Waco children by shooting their parents (see the FLIR project) and burning all survivors by "gasing" them with a flammable mixture of CS gas and its dispersing agent, high winds and open flame stoves/lanterns.
