There is nothing AD HOMINEM about pointing out the political implications of
people's remarks. Andrej states that he agrees with Fleming's statement on
antiwar.com. Fleming blames the war in Kosovo on Milosevich, i.e., the
Serbian people (since Milosevich could hardly have done it himself) refers to
Milosevich as the "new Hitler" (making the Serbs the new Nazis) and approves
US funding for the Serbian "democratic" oppostion. Thus he takes what is in
essence the US government posiktion. When an American does that it is bad
enough. Isn't it worse when a Yugoslav agrees?
Andrej accuses me of making ad hominem remarks because I draw out the meaning
of what he has actually said - that he supports Fleming. Then he suggest my
comments are "a sample of anglo-ameriKKKan radical mindset? "
Andrej, I have spent my life fighting anti-black racism, so comparing me to
the KKK is simnply ridiculous. But you are supporting the statement of a
man, Thomas Fleming, who has slandered the Serbs.
And that has nothing to do with Marxism. The vast majority of Yugoslavs
would agree with my response to a Yugoslav who backs what Fleming has said.
