Jump To Comment: 5 4 3 2 1The whole war on terror is merely a fascist plot by the neo-con administration to take over the world's oil supply- the Muslim religion is a peaceful religion - it is not a religion that makes war unlike the Christian one.
The World Trade Centre "attack" was a "black op" just like the Kennedy assassination
What makes him a "fascist"?
If I were to just see that quote, I would have thought he was an anarchist. He's using the language of radicals to describe things. A self appointed leaders and vanguards? Elitist? Of course this is true, but what he fails to mention is that this describes himself exactly as well.
"Like the ideology of Islamic radicalism, capitalism is elitist, led by a self-appointed vanguard that presumes to speak for the American and European masses. Bush says his own role is to tell Westerners, "You are either with us or against us." And what this man who grew up in wealth and privilege considers good for poor Americans is that they become killers and bombers. He assures them that this road -- that this is the road to "freedom" -- though he never offers to go along for the ride."
"Like the ideology of communism, Islamic radicalism is elitist, led by a self-appointed vanguard that presumes to speak for the Muslim masses. Bin Laden says his own role is to tell Muslims, "what is good for them and what is not." And what this man who grew up in wealth and privilege considers good for poor Muslims is that they become killers and suicide bombers. He assures them that this road -- that this is the road to paradise -- though he never offers to go along for the ride."
Exactly what did he say that makes him a "fascist"?
