The last time I checked, that's what communism is all about. Would calling the person a humanitarian change the fact that he is advocating communist ideology? > Since when is it an insult to point out the curious opposition by extreme left wingers to the liberation of oppressed Muslims, when left wingers constantly claim that they are advocates for the oppressed and call themselves "progressive humanitarians", but are sitting on the sidelines and making excuses for the oppressors? > On second thought, I withdraw the claim that they oppose the liberation of oppressed Muslims, since they also did nothing about the atrocities in Rwanda, Burundi, Kosovo, Somalia, Sierra Leone, Liberia, etc. They only seem to oppose those who oppose atrocities against the oppressed. > These left wingers do not like anyone to shine a light on what they stand for or oppose. > It has become fairly typical for Santosh to try to deflect attention from an issue or try to deter robust debate with pious claims of being abused or insulted.

While desperately, even comically, advocating for questionable enviromental speculation of what is going to happen far into the future and demanding that everyone except India and China reconfigure their entire economies RIGHT NOW, Santosh, who is a medical scientist, ignores an actual medical tragedy caused purely by junk science on DDT which has caused the needless deaths of millions in mostly poor and tropical countries, including India. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Goa - 2005 Santosh Trophy Champions | | | | Support Soccer Activities at the grassroots in our villages | | Vacationing in Goa this year-end - Carry and distribute Soccer Balls | --------------------------------------------------------------------------
