I have no idea if Sam Gindin and Leo Panitch have any ties to Socialist
Project but every so often something comes across my Twitter feed from
this outfit that makes me blanch.
Apparently, York University professor Greg Albo, who has worked with
Panitch and Gindin on Socialist Register for many years, appears to be
following the Oliver Stone/Michel Chossudovsky/Diana Johnstone/Eva
Bartlett/Vanessa Beeley school of advanced crypto-Stalinism most
assiduously. Albo is the éminence grise of the Socialist Project, god
help us.
After seeing a link to a Consortium News article in my Twitter feed
titled "Syria’s Survival Is Blow to Jihadists", I wondered if Albo was
on the same junket to the RT banquet as Max Blumenthal. If you go to the
Socialist Project website, you'll find links galore to this kind of
diarrhea.
You only wonder when Socialist Project begins to crosspost articles from
RT or Sputnik on how Myanmar is leading the struggle against jihadism by
driving the filthy Muslim terrorists out of the country.
The author of the Consortium News article is one Alastair Crooke, a
former member of MI6 with zero connection to the left. Apparently one
other outfit is also on board with Crooke's Assadist propaganda:

Maybe Robert Parry, Greg Albo and Lyndon LaRouche can get together and
exchange ideas about how to prosecute the war on Islamic jihadists. I
bet the 3 of them can come up with a doozy of an article for the next
Socialist Register. They better move quickly because LaRouche just
turned 95 and has begun to mistake a toilet bowl for the bathroom sink.
