thoughts in and out of season
Does anyone else ever post reviews for some of the new books available on amazon.com? One thing I’ve noticed is that they delete right wing reviews. I recently posted a review for the new book by Paul Gottfried THE STRANGE DEATH OF MARXISM, and within a week it was deleted from their system. Amazon.com is … More ...

For those who want to keep tabs on where things stand, here’s a video (22 min. and 50 MB) of the speech by BNP leader Nick Griffin that’s getting him prosecuted for “using words or behaviour likely to stir up racial hatred.” The speech is more vehement than Enoch Powell’s so-called “rivers of blood” speech … More ...
