I never said that you said he was.  Read carefully :smile:

"Just because someone doesn't belive the stories of the holocaust doesn't mean that they are a Nazi. "

Agreed. However, he DOES sympathize with such groups.

Ridiculous. There's more thoughtcrime legislation just passed in the UK:

Quote:


MENACHEM Begin was a magnificent defender of Israel whose spirit lives on in the settlement movement in Gaza. The heroic Palestinians have a just cause for their intifada on the West Bank. The courageous cadres of Chechnya have no alternative but to fight. Down with Robert Mugabe.

The Easter Rising in Dublin is a beacon for Irish liberation from direct rule. Nelson Mandela was a glorious man whose example should be emulated by freedom fighters across the world. Hurrah for the Peshmerga guerrillas and their battle for freedom in Kurdistan!

OK, I?ll come quietly. For I have just broken seven times the new law against glorifying terrorism. Each of these statements are actionable under laws passed by Westminster last week because they glorify contemporary terrorism. They indirectly advocate violent action against presently elected governments.

For example, the Israeli terrorist-turned-premier, Begin, may be long dead, but linking his Irgun guerrilla activities in the 1940s to Israeli settlers indirectly advocates the use of violence against the elected Palestinian authorities

Similarly, applauding the intifada could be interpreted as advocating violence against the Israeli government. The Kurds may be ?on our side? in Iraq, but they also fight for independence against Turkey.

And it goes on. Such is the absurdity of the new laws that it may be impossible for Madonna to use the iconography of Che Guevara in her pop videos. Jenny Tonge, who was sacked from the Liberal Democrats for expressing support for the Palestinians, could find herself in jail.

... Read the rest here

i read that on yahoo news... i thought it was pretty funny... but all jokes aside, i think that it's wrong he has to serve 3 hard years in prison for merely speaking what he believes in. he deserves that freedom to speak his mind just like every one of us.

Who knows? I just find it amusing how you twist it around to suit your own little intellectual crusade agaisnt the supposed horrors of collectivsim as opposed to the rugged nobleness of libertarian individuality.

Its especially funny as you are a collectivist without even admitting it!!

As I said, get that dogma checked!!
