[Marxism] re: 7 Oaks/Ted Glick Exchange

[M. Junaid Alam]

Ted Glick is an extremely slippery character. He sounds good on paper 
and in his books - even in his correspondence - but after trying to get 
something solid and "real" out of him in terms of the whole Green Party 
debacle,  his essays on what leftists should do, the nature of the war, 
I just got the growing sense that something was not quite clicking and 
requested that we disengage further correspondence. It looks like the 
fine folks at 7 Oaks came to much the same conclusion.

That said, the Iranian leader behaved like a buffoon. He could have made 
a much more eloquent and intelligent presentation of the anti-Zionist 
case, instead of repeating the same Hollywood B-movie stereotypical 
trope usually delivered by "Arab baddies." Once again, we are exposed to 
the very real limits of Islamism as an ideology.
