Unnecessary response to rubbish.

I object to the banning/recall/pulping because such behaviour lends importance/significance to a piece of writing that is poorly researched, poorly analysed and poorly written :/

Yes, I went through it. In pain :/

True. There is a book called "Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion," which professes to be a zionist plot to rule the world, and it was banned worldwide for a long time. All the ban accomplished was to make people wonder what was in it. Finally I found it online, and it was full of asides like "If only the foolish peasants realized that the aristocracy is their best friend, and best defense against our plots!"

...Hello? Sound much like Shakespeare's Richard III to you? Pretty obviously written by someone in the aristocracy, as a Word From Our Sponsor against both zionism and communism. (Oddly enough, they did get some of the international banking plots very nearly correct. But they shot themselves in the foot with their "I shall be the veriest villain!" stuff.)

This one - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Protocols_of_the_Elders_of_Zion ?

Ye gods, even the wiki is boring.

Btw, if you want doniger's bk, let me know. I can send by email. Also, better not buy it, that'd be a huge waste of good money.

That's the one. It's pretty bad, but there's just enough substance in it to make the doubletalk sound like it almost makes sense. ...If it had been called "Notes From Meetings of the International Banking Houses," and if the writing had been less ham-handed, I might have given it more credence. ^_^

Thanks, but no, on the offer to send me Doniger's book. Studiousness and curiosity might have tempted me once upon a time, but I'm less and less inclined to waste my remaining time on stuff that doesn't really repay the effort. ;)

Ah yes, basing the crap on a bit of substance so as to convince the comparatively gullible :(

Well, actually that book of doniger's is a huge giant PitA. I'm trying to recover by reading John Keel. Now that guy wrote well :)
