Louis Proyect says I have been "seduced by Murray Bookchin's ideology". I have never read anything by Bookchin. I have read some of Abdullah Ocalan's writings - see my review: http://links.org.au/understanding-abdullah-ocalan-political-thought-kurdistan-womans-revolution-democratic-confederalism/ But what impresses me is not so much his writings (of which I have some criticisms) as the movement inspired by his writings, which is fighting for women's rights, ethnic and religious equality, democracy etc. Of course, it is impossible to build socialism in one country, and still less in part of a country, and still less when under siege and subject to an invasion. The experiment may be crushed militarily or degenerate under pressure. But meanwhile solidarity is essential.
