No apologies from me. You are, I believe, the one who posted the article, an article singing the praises of, among others, the British National Party. Are you at all familiar with what the BNP is? The American equivalent of the BNP would have David Duke as its perennial candidate. The article, although poorly argued, essentially espouses the positions of the conspiratorial far-right—even farther to the right than Buchanan and his paleo-conservatives. These are the folks who go on at length about the ‘undue influence of the Zionist lobby’ and employ ‘neo-con’ as a commonly understood euphemism for ‘Jewish agents of influence’.

If you agree with the fundamental points of the author then you stand shoulder to shoulder with some of the most dark-hearted elements of the American far-right, which is not at all conservative. It is, in fact, an extremist position with more commonalities with the far-far-left than with any mainstream conservative viewpoint. I mean, come on, the America First Party? A party which takes its name from a pro-nazi movement prior to WWII? A party/movement defined by its rabid antisemitism?

So no, you’ll get no apology from me.

Find the evidence or apologize.

You called me an anti-semite with absolutely no justification at all. You won't find a word in my entire posting history to support your pathetic accusations against me. Several times on this thread alone I've said I don't endorse the writer but thought some of his points were worthy of discussion.

People who believe that the "new conservatives" are taking us down a wrong-headed path of globalism are not anti-semites or anti-zionists. You find no one who supports Israel more than I do. But I don't believe we should be citizens of the world or citizens of North America, and that's where the neocon globalist agenda is headed.

You're flat wrong about what you've said. You're buying into a liberal view of what conservatives believe, projecting on me the perception of conservatives the leftist media wants people to have of conservatives.

But judging from your own words about yourself, it doesn't surprise me that you misunderstand conservative principles and utilize leftist defamation tactics to attack conservatives:

Not too long ago, I was the anti-Freeper: an atheistic, quasi- pseudo-marxist true believer, more radical than liberal, more intellectual than wise.

Find the evidence to support your baseless, false and libelous accusations against me, or apologize.
