DS:And it is a fact that the Cubans were training terrorists at Granada. Reagan took those guys down.

Qx:Actually, the Cubans knew that they didn't have a chance. Besides, the use of the word "terrorist" is, as you well know, a very malleable term. When it comes down to it the American government trains many more "terrorists" but you don't want to know that do you?

DS: I wonder how many decent people are alive because of Reagans actions? It is interesting how you guys aren't bothered by commie terrorists killing people in Central America. It seems your concearn is based upon the politics of the victims.

Qx: I wondered how many survived despite Reagan's actions. It is interesting how you aren't even bothered by death squads killing people in Central America. Much more than any "commie terrorists" ever did. It seems their concern was definitely based on the "potential politics" of the victims.

Don: Free market fascist is, of course, an oxymoron.

Qx: No it's not. Just calling it an "oxymoron" doesn't make it an oxymoron. Fascism is an outgrowth of capitalism and it's been shown many times on this bulletin board. Free trade as it is in the real, material world is very compatible with fascism. To understand free trade one should read about it's origins as far as the usage of the term goes.
