oaf@mit-vax.uucp recently submitted his article on Don Black.
Interesting reading. It appears that Don is a KGB agent and I never knew
it. This posting is indicative of the worst sort of fact bending and
name calling that I have yet to see on the net. Somehow by virtue of
being on vacation Don has *MURDERED* Samantha Smith. Interesting, how
good is your libel insurance MR. OAF?? I wouldn't be surprised if you
need it soon. Of course Don may or may not be resubscribed at this time,
but don't worry I took the liberty of forwarding it to him. As I have
said before Don is a friend of mine, and while many of you may disagree
with his political views, he still should be accorded a certain amount
of respect and tolerance. But that is beyond you oaf@mit-vax.uucp isn't
it? But let Don or Ken Ardnt attack you and suddenly they are assholes
who are not tolerant of your most noble opinions. Good logic.
Your urban Masshole attitudes show in statements like "Cow Hampshire"
Jealous of the tax base up north perhaps?? I know you servants of the
great state of taxachusits have your burdens don't you?
To belittle Don's service contributions during the Vietnam non-war is also
indicative of the type of person you must be, no doubt *you* were smart
enough to avoid the war, hiding behind your deferment perhaps? Or were
you one of the many brave men who just ran? I don't even care to hear
your answer. It makes no difference.
Don as I have said before may have "rightist" political views, but he
is willing to do what so many of you armchair liberal, non-violent
types are not, he is willing to put his personal welfare aside in favor
of the group, which of course includes you. To attack his service time
by suggesting that he was fighting for the other side is another
indication of how brutally ignorant you must be. If there had not been
people like this in the past we might be speaking German and worshiping
Der Furher. Or we could still be a colony. Good.
Perhaps Mr. Fiengold, you have been angered by Don's constant attacks
^^^^^^^^
on the Jewish Defense League? Maybe you're a member? Why do we need a
Jewish Defense League anyway? Who are you defending and against what?
What does it stand for? What are it's goals? It's contributions? Or is
this actually the American Jewish League to ensure the preservation of
the Israeli State? By any means? The JDL has claimed responsibility for
a fair amount of violence. This lowers it's status to that of the PLO in
my book. Do we also need a caucasion defense league, a lost dog defense
league etc. ad nauseum?? Don's opinion still has merit and his right to
express it is protected by the constitution. As is yours. But wait, this
is about your foolish attack on Don.
Don's definition of freedom is based on interpertation of the
Constitution not a redefinition of it. What's yours?
Well enough for now. Please answer my questions and show us again that
your not OAF@MIT-VAX.UUCP for nothing.

Pretty powerful defense of someone who's probably a figment of our imagination. -- "I was walking down the street. A man came up to me and asked me what was the capital of Bolivia. I hesitated. Three sailors jumped me. The next thing I knew I was making chicken salad." "I don't believe that for a minute. Everyone knows the capital of Bolivia is La Paz." Rich Rosen pyuxd!rlr
