Skip to comments.The Antiwar Right's Bent View of the World
Posted on 12/16/2004 12:57:40 AM PST by kattracks
I first became aware of something deeply askew on the antiwar right shortly after it came into being in the spring of 1999, as an intellectual protest movement against the U.S. war on Serbia. I myself was deeply opposed to the war, seeing President Clinton's initiation of the conflicton March 24, 1999, one month and twelve days after his acquittal by the U.S. Senateas utterly lacking in moral or legal justification, and as leading to the ruin of Kosovo. While the Kosovo war is not the subject of this article, a summary of it (or at least of my view of it) will provide the background for my ensuing discussion of the antiwar right.
The Kosovo disaster
Prior to the NATO intrusion into Serbia and Kosovo in 1999, there had been a low-level civil war going on in Kosovo for many years, and it was a classic zero-sum game: at any point in time, either the Serbs were on top, and oppressed the Albanians, or the Albanians were on top, and oppressed the Serbs. There was therefore no universally "just" solution possible in Kosovo. Either one side would dominate, or the other. In the 1980s, the Albanians had the upper hand and many Serbs fled the country. The New York Timesirony of ironiespublished an article on November 1, 1987 that sympathized with the plight of the Kosovo Serbs under an Albanian reign of terror. Following the election of Slobodan Milosevic as President of Serbia in 1989, which took place in response to the Albanian aggression, the tables were turned and the Serbs became dominant in Kosovo, with Albanian military groups rebelling against them and the Serbs beating the rebels back.
However, instead of accepting this latest reversal of fortune in a zero sum game in a faraway place, the U.S. government saw the prospect of a Serb victory in Kosovo as an intolerable threat to the liberal, pluralist order of Europe. The multicultural paradigm that U.S. foreign policy makers had adopted in the 1990s required that all ethnic groups in a conflict-ridden region or country, even if they are utterly incompatible with each other and are killing each other, must be made to live together rather than being allowed to resolve the conflict through war or mutual separation. Acting on these premises, and backing them up with fraudulent claims that the Serbs were committing "genocide" in Kosovo, the U.S. and NATO under Clinton's leadership issued the so-called Rambouillet Agreementdescribed more accurately as the Rambouillet Ultimatumwhich required Serbia to submit to NATO Rule, not only in the contested province of Kosovo, but within Serbia proper. When Milosevic quite rightly rejected this outrageous and illegal demand, the U.S., as it had previously threatened (which is why the Rambouillet agreement was really an ultimatum), and without the slightest color of legal authorization from either the United Nations or the U.S. Congress, began a massive bombing campaign against Serbia and the Serb forces in Kosovo.
The next, ruinous step was predictableand had been threatened by Milosevic himself. Now that the U.S. and NATO were engaged in an all-out effort to destroy forever the Serbs' hopes of maintaining control over their historic heartland of Kosovo, Milosevic, quite rationally if thuggishly, also decided to play for keeps. He sought to settle once and for all the ancient conflict over Kosovo by expelling all 800,000 Albanians from the province. The resulting humanitarian disaster, of a scope unseen in Europe since World War II, necessitated and justified the continuation of the very bombing campaign that had triggered the expulsion of the Albanians in the first place, since the bombing (combined in its latter stages with a threat of a land invasion) was the only way to force Milosevic to permit the Kosovar Albanians back into their country. Milosevic finally yielded to U.S. demands and the Albanians returned to their ruined land under international protection, at which point the Albanians gained decisive power in Kosovo and forced many of the remaining Serb minority to leave.
Thus, through the illegal, bullying intervention of the United States, all carried out in the name of multiculturalism and pluralism, the Kosovian zero sum game was finally settled in favor the Muslim Albanians against the Christian Serbs, and enforced by a multinational military presence that has remained in Kosovo to this day.
Such was Clinton's Kosovo war, which the Republican leadership and the neoconservatives supported from start to finish.
The antiwar right becomes the anti-American right
George Szamuely, a New York writer who had been associated with the neoconservatives and had worked for the Hudson Institute, was among those who forcefully and eloquently attacked the war. His articles were published at Antiwar.com, a website that had come into existence for the purpose of opposing the U.S. action in Kosovo. I agreed with his arguments, as I agreed with most of the other writings appearing at Antiwar.com at the time. (I also sent money to support the website.) But then something very strange happened with Szamuely, and with Antiwar.com
itself. Not content with merely opposing the U.S.-led war on Serbia, he began retrospectively attacking America's entire effort in the Cold War against the former Soviet Union. He did this by denying that Communism had ever represented a threat that needed to be stopped. It was as though, once he had switched into an oppositional mode against what he saw as the unjustified use of American power in the case of Serbia, he was compelled by some mysterious dynamic to see any use of American power abroad as wrong or imperialistic, even when that power had been used for such a righteous and necessary cause as resisting the spread of Communism, and even though he himself had previously been an anti-Communist and a supporter of the Cold War.
This came as a shock to me. And the shock didn't end there. I soon noticed a similar adversarial stance among other antiwar rightists, a wild denunciatory quality that did not confine itself to particular wrongs committed by the United States, but eagerly embraced any assertion against America, no matter how ridiculous. For example, Antiwar.com repeatedly charged that the Clinton administration was "racist" for arresting the Chinese-American scientist Wen Ho Lee as a suspected nuclear spy. The charge was ridiculous. This, after all, was the administration that had been in bed with the Red Chinese, giving them advanced missile technology in exchange for illegal Chinese contributions to the Clinton re-election campaign. This was the president who made multiculturalism our national policy, this was our "first black president," this was the president who said he eagerly looked forward to the day when America, as a result of continued mass nonwhite immigration, would no longer be a white-majority country. Could anything be sillier than to say that the Clinton administration in arresting Wen Ho Lee was driven by a racial animus against Chinese people rather than by a concern about the theft of nuclear secrets?
Furthermore, why was Antiwar.com, a supposedly right-wing
website (though its editor, Justin Raimondo, is a paleo-libertarian rather than a paleoconservative), trafficking in the kind of trumped-up racism charges that conservatives normally see as a curse on our society? The answer, as I came to realize, was that from the point of view of Antiwar.com, the Clinton administration was imperialistic, therefore it was illegitimate, and therefore it deserved whatever it got. Any crazy charge was ok, so long as it made the U.S. government look bad.
The antiwar right's turn against America, their indulgence in reckless attacks on the good faith of the American government even when it was combating espionage or containing Communism, suggested to me that at bottom many antiwar critics were not motivated by a love of country or a belief in truth, but by resentment. It was exactly the kind of resentment normally associated with the left, the impotent fury at a traitorous father figure or a supposed "oppressor" whom the supposed "oppressed," seeing himself as powerless and therefore not subject to any responsible restraints, feels justified in striking back at in any way he can. One of the typical forms this resentment took was the notion that the oppressor has no rational basis for doing what he's doing, but is acting out of insane or evil motives.
The denial of objective reality
The antiwar right's attack on virtually any use of U.S. power as sinister and irrational, as well as doomed to failure (a failure the antiwar right has often openly wished for), continued into the post 9/11 period. In the midst of the invasion of Iraq, British military historian Correlli Barnett made wildly off-base statements not only against the Iraq war, in which he virtually expressed the desire for an American defeat, but against the Cold War as well. In the April 3, 2003 edition of the Daily Mail, the mouthpiece of Britain's antiwar right, Barnett prophesied that the U.S.-led war to topple the Saddam Hussein regime had not "reached the end of the beginning"; that the Iraqi people were "rallying behind Saddam"; and that America would be humbled before the gates of Baghdad. Of course, within a few days of these dire predictions Baghdad had fallen to the victorious U.S. forces. Almost as though seeking succor for his disappointment over the results in Iraq, Barnett turned to another bad U.S. war, indeed the Mother of All Bad U.S. Wars. Writing in the May 19, 2003 issue of The American Conservative, he gave the following account of President Johnson's decision to send American forces into Vietnam:
Why did he do it? Vietnam had no oil fields, industries, or key raw materialsonly rice fields. The answer lies in America's central motivation in waging the Cold War: ideological hatred of Communism.... American policy-makers did not regard the Soviet Union as simply a rival power block, but an evil empire threatening the free world. Such righteousness justified the global commitments and military adventure. [Italics added.]
In brief, America had no good reason to fear Communism or to try to protect our South Vietnamese allies from being taken over by Communist dictatorship. Not only the Vietnam war, but the entire Cold War was unnecessary, and was brought about solely by America's irrational "hatred."
What we see here is the standard leftist put-down of all non-leftist or conservative positionsnamely that when conservatives are addressing some external threat to society, the threat, according to the left, doesn't really exist but is rather the result some mental sickness or political calculation on the part of the conservatives. If conservatives take a stand against Communism, it is not because of anything wrong with Communism, it's because conservatives are emotionally crippled people who need an enemy. If conservatives think that Clinton is corrupting and defiling America, it's not because of anything Clinton has done, but because of an unreasoning hatred (fed by a twisted sexual Puritanism) that they bear against Clinton. If conservatives are leery of the racial-oppression claims of the organized black movement in this country, it is not because they believe the black complaints to be false and destructive, but because, as Clinton himself repeatedly put it, whites have a sick need to "look down" on blacks. If conservatives are concerned about mass immigration, it is not because they are concerned about the harm immigration is causing to our society, but because they have an irrational "fear of those who are different." And, finally, if President Bush is waging a war against Islamic terrorists, it is not because he seeks to protect America from real harm, but because he seeks political gain through the manipulation of the public's fears. After all, as the Democratic Party's favorite filmmaker Michael Moore says, "There is no terrorist threat."
Such has been the usual left-liberal tactic, employed with increasing regularity throughout the entire post World War II period, aimed at delegitimizing non-liberal positions and preventing them even from being discussed. And now this same type of anti-American, anti-conservative propaganda has found a home in a magazine called The American Conservative. Could anybody have imagined that a publication edited by the inveterate Cold Warrior and Reagan speechwriter Patrick Buchanan would deride as a sick fantasy Reagan's historically important labeling of the USSR as an "evil empire"? Does Buchanan think that Reagan's greatest achievementthe moral condemnation, political isolation, and ultimate defeat of Soviet Communism, was really just paranoid shadow boxing?
Just as the antiwar right, along with the antiwar left, portrays international communism as a fantasy, it does the same with Islamic terrorists. The Islamists are not really enemies at all, the Antiwar Party tells us; rather the belief that they are enemies has been planted in us by propagandists. The following passageand you may want to put on your work gloves before reading itcomes from an article by Neil Clark, a British leftist, in the December 1, 2003 issue of The American Conservative:
Arabophobia has been part of Western culture since the Crusades, with Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden being bogeymen to scare our children. For centuries the Arab, despite bequeathing us the telescope, the pendulum, the watch, soap, chemistry, and modern arithmetic, has played the role of villain, seducer of our women, hustler, and thiefthe barbarian lurking menacingly at the gates of civilization. In the late 20th century, new images emerged: the fanatical terrorist, the stone thrower, the suicide bomber. Now, as the Project for the New American Century suffers it first major setback in the back streets of Baghdad and Basra, Arabophobia, the one form of racism about which Hollywood does not make films, has been given a new lease of life. Scratch a neocon, and you find an Arabophobe.
Leaving aside Clark's lurid construction of a fictional West that historically has only demonized Muslims (to the contrary, as Ibn Warraq shows in his book, Why I Am Not a Muslim, European writers have been casting a romantic, approving aura around Islam and ignoring its dark side for centuries), what Clark is saying here is beyond sick. His main point is that the terrible Islamist phenomena that have so roiled our world in recent yearsMuslim suicide bombers, Osama bin Laden's fatwa to "kill Americans and Jews wherever you find them," Arab crowds dancing in ecstasy at the mass murder of Americans, and all the rest of the hellish spectacle of Islamic radicalismare nothing more than "images" manufactured by "neocon Arabophobes" in the U.S. government in order to advance their own sinister objectives. Beyond singling out the evil neocons as the creators of these terrorist bogeymen, Clark's main aim is to render moot all criticism of and opposition to our enemies, or, rather, his aim to eliminate the belief that our enemies even exist, while sowing bitter hostility against our own side.
This is the kind of leftist poison that a once-distinguished writer at National Review, Joseph Sobran, in a celebrated essay published in 1985, described as alienism: "a prejudice in favor of the alien, the marginal, the dispossessed, the eccentric, reaching an extreme in the attempt to 'build a new society' by destroying the basic institutions of the native." But, in a further sad illustration of my thesis, Sobran, in addition to becoming an outspoken Israel hater in recent years, has turned against the most basic institution of America, of which he was once a foremost champion. Having spent his entire writing career as an indefatigable exponent and defender of the U.S. Constitution against its modern statist distortions, Sobran in 2002 came out as a Rothbardian libertarian anarchist, agreeing with his newly adopted mentor, the late Murray Rothbard, that it's not the liberal perversions of the Constitution that are the problem, but the Constitution itself; that the state is "nothing but a criminal gang writ large"; and that the Framers of the U.S. Constitution meeting in Philadelphia in 1787 were engaged in a "coup d'état."
So, just as former patriots on the right have become anti-Americans, and just as former Cold Warriors on the right have become apologists for Communism, a former leading constitutionalist on the right has become an enemy of the Constitutionindeed, of the very existence of government.
The key to the destructive mindset of the antiwar right, which I hope to explore in future articles, is that their ideas about politics are not the product of rational thought and a concern for the common good. Their ideas are, very simply, the product of burning anger, a sense of perpetual hurt and victimhood. And that is why they have become so much like the left.
Lawrence Auster is the author of Erasing America: The Politics of the Borderless Nation. He offers a traditionalist conservative perspective at his weblog, View from the Right.
Well, this should get the paleos riled up! Shall I make the popcorn?
I come across this anti-war right/libertarian garbage when I'm reading articles at the Von Mises Institute. On economic issues, I'm a strict libertarian, but I separate it from social/foreign policy issues.
I think the real problem here is that the Old Right, which includes most right-wing libertarians, is totally lost on foreign policy. They should follow the voice in their forest, the Ayn Rand Institute (ARI). The ultra-libertarian think-tank, modeled after the great one herself, has an interesting take on the War on Terror.
just like the rest of the anti-war right, ARI claims that the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq were mistakes. But ARI claims thet they were mistakes DID NOT GO FAR ENOUGH: ARI claims that we should have immediately leveled Tehran the epicenter of global terrorism.
Although I am a fan of Rand, I do not read the publications of the ARI. Interestingly enough, when asked over the last few months for my take on the Middle East War(s) over the last few months I have usually replied that I thought we made one mistake: We used the wrong bomb.
Isn't the anti-war right just leftover anti-Federalists???
We all thought they went extinct during the War of 1812, but I guess we were wrong...
What would be the point of rising to the bait, when we are likely to be suspended if we say anything really incisive that disagrees with the general mentality here on Unfree Republic?
Rand was never a libertarian. Rand hated libertarians. Rand believed (foolishly) that libertarians had plagiarized her ideas, and that they were "a random collection of hippies of the right."
ARI claims that the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq were mistakes. But ARI claims thet they were mistakes DID NOT GO FAR ENOUGH: ARI claims that we should have immediately leveled Tehran the epicenter of global terrorism.
ARI also equated Bush's Christian fundamentalist support with Muslim fundamentalism. Furthermore, Piekoff endosed Kerry because Piekoff thought Bush was too religious.
Yes, the ARI would like to purge the world of Islam, because they see it as mindless mysticism. But the ARI would also like to purge the world of Christianity, for the same reason.
Curiously, they also support the "Jewish state" of Israel -- because they see it as non-religious. For that same reason, they support the US, which they clame is the "least religious nation on Earth."
Clearly, the ARI first determines what nation or person it likes, then projects its own fantasies onto it.
Libertarians, OTOH, are neither pro nor anti-religion, but leave it up to the individual. They are, however, consistently individualistic, which means they oppose forcing anyone to support a religion or foreign country, though they permit anyone to do so voluntarily.
From the point of view of Jovial Cad, I am guessing here a little, the article is bait because it criticizes a web-site of which paleocons generally have a high opinion. He probably imagines them "rising" to the bait by posting replies that, if ineffective and stupid, he and others will bash, and, if effective and intelligent, will get the respondents suspended or banned.
Justin-Dennis-Justine Raimondo alert
Does anyone remember Sobran's "Pensées"? I subscribed to NR at the time, but didn't read the article in its entirety. My impression, based on what I did read, was: "This is real boring."
And then, just a few years later, conservatism's new "official philosopher" was booted out of the movement.
Rothbard was vociferously opposed to all efforts to resist Communism (in exact accordance with the Communist line, he applied the phrase "Cold War" exclusively to the actions of the West). Raimondo followed him in this; I confess I find it strange that Mr. Auster was surprised when Antiwar took an a line against the Cold War.
He is mistaken about another point: it is true that in Rothbard's major writings he took a stand for more or less free immigration, but after the fall of the Soviet Union (I think this was the precipitating event) the Rothbardian libertarians reversed their opinion completely.
This ping list is not author-specific for articles I'd like to share. Some for perfect moral clarity, some for provocative thoughts; or simply interesting articles I'd hate to miss myself. (I don't have to agree with the author 100% to feel the need to share an article.) I will try not to abuse the ping list and not to annoy you too much, but on some days there is more of good stuff that is worthy attention. I keep separate PING lists for my favorite authors Victor Davis Hanson, Lee Harris, David Warren, Orson Scott Card. You are welcome in or out, just freepmail me (and note which PING list you are talking about).
While I value your opinion....for your own sake ensure that no one in your family gives you a labelling machine for Christmas.
Consider your health and time lost as you huddle under a lamp at night muttering to yourself and crank out such classics as; "paleo-libertarian,anarcho-capitalist,anti-federalist,"conservatives."perhaps even Arabophobic"
Great article!
""He then turns around and does the exact same thing. The antiwar right is infected with "hate" and surely there is some underlying psychological motivation. Well, while I despise this type of argument, I will join Mr Auster in his hypocrisy and then promise to never do it again""
I think he is right, though.
Here is one way I put it:
On a few website bulletin boards, I have used the term PEACE NAZI to describe the peace movement in general, and one person asked me for an explanation as to what the term means and why I say it. Here is my answer:
It is intentionally derogatory, and I use it because I believe it has to be said.
It has to do with the foundation of the PEACE movement in the US and abroad and their Communist foundation, and how the majority of the signs held and slogans chanted are not about peace or genuine concern for the people of two warring countries, it is about the anti-American attitudes and the violence-inducing signs and slogans calling for violence against American Troops and President Bush.
Carrying signs calling on troops to kill their officers, to bomb Texas, for Bush to choke on a pretzel and die, for troops to shoot their officers, signs that call for communist revolution, starting fights with people who disagree with you while carrying a peace sign, trying to steal my money in Boston while carrying a peace sign and then telling me because you were shamed into giving back the money that means you are ok after all...
Things like that.
I will NOT stop using it. It is intended to make the peace protestor think.
After all the horrors we found in Iraq, you should all be thankful we went in and invaded to remove that madman. Yet, the mantra has changed, it is now against occupation! Still, not one PEACE NAZI has apologized and admitted we were right. All they do is complain that a people that were under slavery for 30 years have gone looting, and who do they blame? Why the US!! We did nothing to stop it! Maybe because we stayed out of the crowd because the PEACE NAZIS would have complained we didnt let them vent their anger??
(As a side note, people who are now called PEACE NAZIS didnt call on the LAPD or Federal Troops to stop the LA riots after the Rodney King riots, did they? They told us all to step back and let them vent their anger, yet all of a sudden, we are supposed to go in and use force to stop rioters in Iraq?)
And to top it off, we are flushing out the terrorists in places like Fallujah, the places where the Murderous Mullahs all take refuge, and the PEACE NAZIS have not ONCE held a rally to decry the beheadings of Americans or Iraqi CARE workers! Not one PEACE NAZI rally held to call for justice for the Killers of Daniel Pearl or any foreigner killed in Iraq!
We never intended to occupy a country like SYRIA has the last 20 years, and where are the PEACE NAZIS and their signs calling on SYRIA to leave Lebanon? They are non existent. The Syrians killed tens of thousands, chasing little children into bedrooms and shooting them point blank.
Did you know there was a Christian Community in Beirut before 1985? Now, they are almost either all killed or fled from the Syrian backed Junta, and not a peep from the PEACE NAZIS, only against American forces sent to Beirut to keep peace. Why arent the PEACE NAZIS arguing for the return of the Christian Community back to Beirut where they lived for 2 Millennium?
Where were the PEACE NAZIS when Israel was blockaded in 1967? Where were the PEACE NAZIS when Israel was attacked on her Holy Day of Yom Kippur in 1973? Where were the PEACE NAZIS when the PLO was shelling Katyusha rockets into Israel in 1982? Oh, Yeah, I remember, they were telling Israel to stop defending themselves!
In fact, there is not a single country that we ever went to war with that we stayed as the government power for more than 10 years! We always returned it to the people.
And that brings up another point: PEACE NAZIS are NOT against war, they are against wars that the US is engaged in to overthrow pro-Communist or PRO-radical Islamic regimes or PRO-Maoist/PRO-Stalinist regimes.
My point here, is simple: These COMMIES are not for peace. If they were, they would have been screaming about Clinton killing innocents to keep his sexual scandals off the tv,
they would have been screaming for the Palestinian Liberation Organization to stop killing Jews,
they would have been screaming for Hamas and Islamic Jihad to stop killing Jews,
they would have been screaming for the Hutus and Tutsis to make peace,
they would have been screaming for that madman Saddam to stop killing Kurds or Iranians,
they would have been screaming for the Turks to stop killing Kurds or Greeks,
they would have been screaming for the Chinese to stop killing Vietnamese in 1982,
they would have been screaming for the Angolan Army to stop killing with the help of the Cuban Army in the 1980's,
they would have been screaming for the Muslims to stop killing Christians in Indonesia
They would have been screaming for the Sudanese to stop the torture and slave trade which continues today
They would have been screaming when the Syrians invaded Lebanon in 1985
They would have been screaming when Pol Pot started a genocide in 1975,
They would be screaming now about Mugabe killing all the white farmers in Africa in Zimbabwe
They would have been screaming at the murders caused by the African National Congress and their necklacing of prisoners and at Winnie Mandela who was convicted of murder, yet the communists are silent
They would have been screaming about Tiananmen Square, but they are silent.
They would have been screaming about the repression in Cuba and why so many people have chosen to flee in rickety little boats, but instead they lionize that dictator, Castro
They would have been screaming about the invasion of South Vietnam in 1975 where the north started a genocide campaign in direct violation of the Paris Peace Accords of 1973 and caused over 2 million Vietnamese to flee in little boats that got picked up by ships like mine in 1981
They would be screaming at the Palestinians for their suicide bombings that intentionally target innocent school age children,
They would be screaming at the Palestinians for their suicide bombings that intentionally target innocent people on buses, or pizza parlors, or weddings, or cruise ships, or Olympic hotels,
Except, the only time they scream is when the US is at war against a tyrant who is support by Russia.
In much of the world, the antics and policies of these PEACE NAZIS would result in jail or worse. Cuba, China and many socialist countries routinely eliminate protests and protesters against the government and its leaders. It seems ironic that the ultimate goal of these protesters is to transform America into the kind of government that tolerates no dissent.
And since NAZI is one of the most vile insults you can give someone in our last two generations, I call them PEACE NAZIS, for they are not for peace, they are for war, they are for the overthrow of my country and into communism and anarchy, and they are a violent bunch who base their foundation on lies and the telling of lies and the repeating of lies.
I would have intervened in almost everyone, with either an embargo or troops of our own or the support of troops indigenous to fight the bad guys.
The PEACE NAZIS dont believe in any of that. Unless it is a war against American Interests.
I like it - I LOVE YOUR Statement of what they are, and I will be copying it for distribution to some of my unfriends here.
Red: you're wrong about being isolationist and non-interventionist. We have no moral choice but to be the best global policeman possible. That clearly does not mean we can or must intervene in each and every case of injustice, but that we must constantly evaluate where and when, much as a good parent chooses when and how to intervene in the lives of their children for their own benefit, but often chooses to let them go their own way for one reason or another.
In the case of Saddumb Hussein, OBL and Afghanistan, we waited far too long for the rest of the world to respond, as we have also in the case of Iran, and Syrian support of terrorism, and I'm quite tempted to say we've waited too long in the case of Saudi Arabia, but I don't know enough about the "behind the scenes" activity there to be certain. Being isolationist and non-interventionist and allowing threats to overcome our allies, and eventually ourselves, is not an effective option for a world superpower, and it is not moral to stand by and do nothing. If anything, I would state that we have errored most grieveously by being as non-interventionist as we have been to our detriment and to the world's, and would contend that we ought to have intervened in the majority of the cases RaceB mentioned in his post.
I think Murray Rothbard was one conflicted dude. I never finished his biography - I couldn't get past teh statement by one of his 'true believers' that Rothbard was only 'consistent in his inconsistency' i.e. he challenged his followers with a firm philosophy - then as his followers began to understand his rational and began to embrace it, Rothbard would 'move beyond' that understanding and embrace the exact opposite! It sounded to me like someone who had a lot of fun playing 'mind-games' on people who were intellectually slower than him. I wasn't interested.
The problem is that humans do not behave that way. Those that find Liberty worth the sacrifice are a minority. People will not defend the Constitution, as Alexander Hamilton predicted.
Any more I see the whole enterprise of the Republic as another well fitted piece in the mosaic of human events, a first half of the 18th Century Whiggishness. Been doomed since "judicial review" or even earlier with Charles River Bridge and the end of the "abridgment of contracts" clause.
Me too.
Not I wrote nation changing - nation building would involve building up what was there before such as a republican Germany and Japan before the Nazis and Jap Generals.
Nation changing involves importing and creating new institutions and ways of thinking into nations that have never known such things such as Iraq.
Example: Maybe Iraq would have been better off as a strong man centralized constitutional monarchy like they had before Saddam and not the system put into place now?
While not a paleo or a Libertarian, I can understand why the new conservativcs set the other side of the right off.
I strongly disagree - and it is not tampering with the original meaning of the Constitution - in the modern world we must not make the error of believing that we can defend ourselves solely by awaiting the enemy with muskets in Concord and Lexington; and though some would, most of the Founding Fathers would not make a case for that position.
The only way that our government can responsibly provide for the common defense is to keep enemies away from our shores.
Not so fast - in the modern world we must not make the mistake that the constitution has a different meaning or application in the modern world than what the constitution meant in the past.
I am sure the paleo answer to that is: "why station the military in Iraq and leave the Mexican border wide open?"
Harry Lime, is that you?
The Constitution did a pretty good job for the first 110 years. The Articles of Confederation broke down in under 10.

387 pages
March 2010
The first section provides general concepts of the synthesis and properties of epoxy polymers and serves as a basis for the subsequent chapters. The second section includes new types of epoxy polymers recently commercialized or not yet present on the market, while the third section includes chapters related to the capacity of generating controlled nanostructures in epoxy-based materials. A fourth section is devoted to innovations in epoxy-based materials such as adhesives, coatings, pre-pregs, structural foams, injection-molded products and self-healing epoxies. Concluding remarks and perspectives are discussed in a short final section.
The result is a one-stop reference source, collecting scientific and technological breakthroughs otherwise spread over hundreds of publications, patents and reports.

Skill Level Appropriate for all
The dock is a powerful tool for accessing not only frequently used applications, but also files and folders as well. In addition, there are some ways that the dock can be customized. Let's take a look at how this works. I'm beginning this video in the finder on my computer. And the dock, by default, is located way down here at the bottom of our screen. Now by default the dock is populated with applications that come when Mountain Lion is installed. And you can see that we've got several applications that are pretty useful, such as Safari and mail and even the app store.
But the dock can be customized to meet the way that you work. So for example, let's say there's an application I use pretty frequently but is not located down here in the dock. What I'm going to do is go to the File menu and chose New Finder Window. And this is also a good time for me to point out that you can also use a keyboard shortcut instead of going to the menu every time. So if I use the shortcut Cmd+N on my keyboard, that will do the same thing as creating a new finder window from the menu.
Now, what I'm going to do is over here on the sidebar, I'm going to go to my applications folder. So let's say I use the chess application quite a bit. And I want it to be down here in the dock. So I'm going to drag that chess application down. And as I drag it down there, the other applications will slide out of the way, making room for that application. So maybe I'll move it over here next to the calendar. And when I release the mouse button, now the chess application is available inside of the dock.
If you wanted to add another one, let's say maybe we use the calculator a good bit, we can drag this down, maybe we'll drop this down over here to the left of the contacts app. And now you see that we can access that application as well. I'm going to go ahead and close this window and then to launch an application it's really as simple as hovering your cursor over the application, clicking on the icon and then the application will launch. Now you can use this as you see fit. I'm going to go ahead and quit this.
If you decide that you no longer need an application in your dock you can click on that object and drag it up, and when you let go with your mouse, it will disappear into a puff of smoke. I'll go ahead and do that to the chess application as well. Now in addition, we can customize some other aspects of the dock. One way that I can do that is to come up here to the Apple menu, come down to Dock, and choose Dock Preferences. This will open up my dock preferences that allows me to adjust the size of the dock.
So as I drag this slider to the right it gets bigger, to the left it gets smaller. And then you can also turn magnification on. Within that category you can also drag the slider to control how large the icons are magnified. So to show you how this works, when I hover over the dock, you can see that as I hover over the applications they get magnified so that I can see them a little bit better. I'm going to go and turn magnification off. And then I'll drag the size up a little bit to make it easier to see.
You can also position the dock on the left side of your screen, on the right side of your screen, and then also at the bottom. In addition, the minimize windows using allows me to choose an effect that is applied when I minimize the window. To show you what I mean, if I click on this yellow button, it's going to minimize that window to the dock. And if you saw that interesting effect that's created when you minimize and maximize it, that's what's referred to as the Genie Effect.
I'm going to show this to you in slow motion for a second. And now you can see what the Genie Effect looks like. Again, when you expand it, it does the same thing which is referred to as the Genie Effect. You can also change to just the Scale Effect which is just going to scale that down in more of a simple manner. Same thing with scaling it up. Now we can also choose to double-click a windows title bar to minimize the window. So if I turn this option on, and I double click on the toolbar, it's going to minimize the window that way as well.
So I'll turn that off. You can also minimize the windows into the application icon instead of over here in the dock. So if I turn that on when I minimize this, instead of it taking up space on the right side of the dock, it actually puts it here underneath the actual application icon. So I'll turn that off again. Animate opening applications basically just causes the application to bounce down here in the dock. So if I were to open up an application you'll see that the dock icon bounces a little bit when I do that.
Go ahead and close the app store. The other feature that's pretty powerful is to automatically hide and show the dock. If I turn that on the dock actually disappears until I move my cursor way down to the bottom and then the dock will appear so I can launch an application. When I move out of the way it'll hide it again. So I'll turn that off as well. And then show indicator lights for open applications, you can see that when an application is open, so in this case we're in the system preferences application.
You can see that there's a little light way down, here, below the icon. Which is a quick and easy way to tell when an application is open. I like that, so I'm going to keep that option checked. Some I'm going to set this back to the Genie Effect, and I can go ahead and quit system preferences. In addition I wanted to show you that if you wanted to change the size of your dock you can also do so by hovering your cursor on this divider line. And then as I drag down or up I can scale the dock in a more visual manner as well. Last but not least the dock is not reserved only for applications. We can also put files and folders there as well. You can actually see, to the right of this divider line, we have the documents folder that is already there by default, as well as the downloads folder. So let's create a new finder window.
And I'm going to go to the pictures folder. And I'm going to show you how we can add the, Fun Pics folder to our dock. So if I drag this down, you're going to notice that down here the icons are not moving out of the way because the left side of the dock to the left of this divider line is reserved for applications. However, if I move over to the right of that divider line, now these icons will get out of the way and allow me to drop a new folder there to access.
So now if I close this finder window and I want to get to my Fun Pics folder very quickly, I can just hover over this icon, click, and it's going to open up that folder in this heads up display. If I click the Open in Finder button, it'll actually open it in a finder window, so it's a pretty powerful tool. And you can do the same thing in here with documents as well. I'm going to go ahead and close that window, and as you've seen, there's a lot that the dock can do. I encourage you to customize the dock to your liking, so that it becomes an even more valuable tool than it already is.

Hi Marcus,
I don't know if this is a similar issue to dokauai's in the forum below.
I've got a multisite setup with subdomains and domain mapping running on WP 3.1.3. I've been using Event Manager for a good few months and it's been fine. Note that I'm only using EM on some sub-sites, not on the mainl site, so it's not network enabled.
After a successful upgrade on a standalone (i.e. non-multisite) install I had a go at this multisite and it's failed.
The upgrade is from EM v3.0.97 to 4.0.6
Initially I got a red banner in the Dashboard saying "Events Manager upgrade not complete, please upgrade to version 3.0.96 or higher first from here first before upgrading to this version. We made a screencast to help you out.". My events also disappeared from the EM dashboard and from the website - I'm sure they're in the database, but I can't see them.
I then saw your screencast and discovered the database upgrade trigger problem. A de-activate and re-activate of the plugin (at sub-site level) didn't help and the options.php showed dbem_version 3.0.95.
SO...I downgraded to v3.0.98, did the de-activate and re-activate and everything was OK again. I then re-did the upgrade to 4.0.6, followed by a de-activate and re-activate. I'm in a slightly better place: there's no red banner message on the Dashboard, but I still can't see any events.
I've just tried a downgrade to v4.0.4 as you suggested to someone else but I'm still in the same state.
Any thoughts on how to get my events to display again?

Book of Job
Death Theme
Book of Job Theme of Death Quotes
Pretty much everyone in the Book of Job dies except the main characters. But this story is about more than just mass destruction. Don't get us wrong, the mourning rituals we get after Job's entire family dies are fascinating, and we love seeing that not-so-mild mannered Hebrew Bible God. But the physical destruction in the story leads to some major philosophical musings. Suddenly, Job is thinking about how fragile and meaningless human life is. Heavy stuff. But hey, it's Job—we expect nothing less.
Questions About Death
- In the Book of Job, what is God's role in human death? Is he responsible for the death of Job's whole family?
- Speaking of which, poor Job's family. They seem to get the short end of the stick. Are they just casualties for some larger purpose?
- Is Job any wiser after his family dies?
- Do evil people and good people die as equals in the text? Or is that up for debate?


text: Just for kicks and giggles, thought I'd say that I'm still using WP 1.53 beta after all these years. Still going strong and no "gotta get the latest this or that". Thanks to everyone who wrote 1.53. The frantic pace of upgrading to the latest whatever was just too much. Hope y'all are still having fun.

The following month that was another draw on his checking account. This time for $24.98 - we didn't know what this charge was for. The people at the bank verfied it was a charge from GGW Video. My son said that the person on the phone when he ordered told him that he would have the option of viewing future videos. We still haven't received this additional video or any information with a phone number or address.
When/if this video arrives, we intend to send it back as they thought the first set was a ripoff. How do we contact GGW Video to stop future shipments??? I spoke to someone who said his friend received at least 15 of this shipments.
My son is nineteen, attending college and only works part time. He cannot afford to get these shipments and lose $25 every 3 weeks. He hopefully has learned a lesson about ordering stuff on a whim from these infomercials.

To hear Andrew Harrison tell it, the Kentucky Wildcats were comfortable when they were down 13 and without Willie Cauley-Stein, who was lost for the rest of the game with a left ankle injury. They were comfortable when Luke Hancock hit back-to-back 3-pointers, James Young fouled out and momentum was swinging in Louisville's favor. They were comfortable down seven to the defending national champions with 4:33 left in the game.

Sorry, this product is no longer in stock.
Nice procuct
Posted by Reviewer1233916 on Nov 04, 2008
Too soon to tell if this is doing anything, but it does keep my skin nice and moistuized. I like the way it absorbs into my face quickly.
Posted by Reviewer2490036 on May 20, 2009
Has slight smell that soon fades on the skin. It smooths on easily but you must be careful not to apply too much on any area as it will make the skin tight in any patches where you have more than a dot of serum. Very nice for the face.
excellent serum
Posted by Reviewer3309223 on Nov 11, 2010
I am slowly changing over to this whole range as it is great for sensitive skin. A pity there is no eye cream as yet.
Not good under makeup
Posted by Reviewer2416146 on Dec 17, 2009
I really like this serum, but it doesn't work so well under makeup. I let the serum dry, and then when I apply makeup the serum flakes a bit, and I have to rub it off. I do like using it before bed though.
Not Bad.

I'd like to change the blue line that runs the width of the page, too.
I see this, but I don't know what to do with it...
/* These are used for Themonic Main Nav Bar li background colors - for colorful menu */
.bluem{ background-color:#157D92; padding:5px; }
.orangem{ background-color:#FF811A; }
.greenm{ background-color:#8AC327; }
.redm{ background-color:#F96234; padding:10px;}
Any suggestions?
Thank you very much!

Attempting to access my PayPal account only produced a screen requesting that I fax them my ID and evidence of the company address. This I did the same day with many more documents than they had requested, including Photo ID on a MoD unescorted Pass (very hard to get) a UK full Driver Licence, Company tel bills and invoices, etc. After several days I eventually received an auto respond email from PayPal (do not respond ...) subject "Status Change"
Now trying to access my account requested my Credit Card details (their 500 limit without verification was nowhere near being exceeded). There was and is NO WAY that I would give this bunch of fly by nights my credit card details after this saga and discovering and reading many other victims' reports on this website.
I have dispatched orders to all those people that paid me via PayPal and I will pay the vendors for items I purchased AGAIN. This means that I will have paid twice for some items and will not have been paid myself for some that I dispatched.
BUT, the money is not important. We are an old and established company with an unblemished reputation. I was LUCKY my whole business is not based on PayPal and Ebay nor on any ONE OTHER FACTOR. My financial losses are small compared to many PayPal victims. PayPal robs from the honest people to compensate for their huge losses to fraudsters.
They, PayPal are Robin Hood in reverse and I would like to REVERSE them for OBVIOUS FRAUDULENT ACTIVITY back to whatever manure heap they crawled out from. PayPal have now started to "conquer" Europe and the UK! Let them be warned that this is where they get their just deserts! England is a Small Island and we have 10,000 plus past customers names in our database.
All have been warned of PayPal's CRIMINAL activities. I have updated both my websites www.pclaptopgarage.co.uk AND www.laptop-chargers.co.uk with NOPAYPAL icons and links to this excellent website (www.ripoffreport.com) We, the small people cannot do much BUT we can do something and if that something saves just one person from suffering the PayPal plight then it will have been worth it. I am intending to launch my own PayPal UK Victims Website soon and welcome emails from any UK residents that have become PayPal victims. I have instituted legal actions against PayPal both in the Civil High Court and the Criminal Court.
Unlike some PayPal victims (who unknowingly receive a fraudulent payment), I never even received a fraudulent payment from anybody and never added a credit card to my account fraudulent or otherwise! Apparantly, I have been told, that if you use your PayPal account more than a few times in one day, then their "very sophisticated" software (it's certainly very sophisticated, I don't think!)Freezes your account(s), charges back everyone that you have paid (sending them an email alleging FRAUD against you)and leaves you only with a hard to connect to fax number to fax all your personal documents. After several days you receive another automated email (with no reply option)informing you of "Status Change" BUT no email sent to your cliens who have had their payments REVERSED. This email requests that you check your account. There you will find a little box and the action required to activate your account is enter your credit card detail.
I am also informed that when you fax all your personal ID and details on their 08707 303 194 number the fax goes to INDIA! This must be very useful to TERRORISTS and FRAUDSTERS! IF I had known this I would never have faxed my documents to them and now feel like I have been duped TWICE! Enter my Credit Card Details and get ripped off for a THIRD TIME not on your nelly.
I will do ALL that I can to bring these activities to the attention of the British Public and the British Authorities.
If you can help in any way then please do not hesitate to contact me.
Many Thanks and DO NOT FORGET TO CLOSE YOUR PAYPAL ACCOUNT!

The whole humour in Allo Allo is based on the British cast executing extremely bad French and German impersonations. In The Monuments Men acclaimed actress Cate Blanchett pulls off one of the most hilarious stunts in her career by pretending to be French while Matt Damon hits the nail on the head with a purposely bad French accent.
Gravity is simply beautiful to look at, a galactic ballet, if you like. Tears float like bubbles and flames curls like tendrils of golden ringlets, and all the while planet Earth is spread out before the astronauts, an awe-inspiring tableaux. Meanwhile, Jonas Cuaron's script ups the ante at every turn, keeping us hooked and fully invested in the story all the way.
A few things will happen while watching Gravity. Your palms will become sweaty, then they may seek comfort at the sides of your face. You'll feel isolated, alone. Little wonder your breathing will become shallow. With your body empathising with the characters, this is clearly not the sort of film you can ignore.
Clooney believes that coffee production represents an exciting opportunity to "change South Sudan so that they can help themselves and not rely on aid from people who they really don't want to have aid from' and encourage "the sort of national dignity which can help a young, struggling country succeed".

Photos: Sushant-Baba Sehgal perform Adda song at IPL match
Hyderabad: The IPL match between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Sunrisers Hyderabad on Sunday evening rocked to greater heights with Telugu film Adda leading stars actor Sushant, Shwetha Bharadwaj and Baba Sehgal live performance that enthralled the packed stadium.
The audience at the stadium got the first feel of the title track from the soon to be released Telugu film Adda sung by Baba Sehgal. Talking to Oneindia, actor Sushanth said, "It's awesome to perform in front of such a charged up cricket fans. It raises our adrenaline to dizzy heights. I am sure they loved as much as we loved it."
Swetha Bharadwaj, who did the special song with Sushanth, was super excited performing the title song live with Sushanth. It was a scintillating song and dance combo that electrified the match ambiance. It is the second time Baba Sehgal is singing for Sushanth after 'Chori chori' song he sang for his first film Kalidasu.
The title track of Adda has been composed by Anoop Rubens, who belted out hit albums one after the other like Ishq and Lovely. He has also given the background score to the Bollywood film Buddah Hoga Tera Baap. Talking about his music, Sushanth said, "The music is novel and the choreography is superbly done. I'm super excited with the response we got from this huge cricket frenzy people in the stadium. I hope it will stir the same vibrancy in theatres too."
