...Alaskan, I have a ringside seat at the tragedy that is unfolding here [June 2]. Men of greed will exploit and plunder this beautiful land. I am not against progress, but based on man's past performance I can only see disaster looming...
...leaders only help the process along. Since 1965, we have seen increasing black self-pride, and cultural dignity, increasing identification by American blacks with the struggle in Africa and the rest of the Third World, and increasing solidarity between Third World peoples in general. The victims of international capitalist plunder are coming together on a world scale, uniting against their common enemy.

The Palestinian terrorists belong to this second group--under the cover of revolutionary jargon they commit atrocities reminiscent of those committed against the Jewish People by another group of degenerative revolutionaries--the Nazis. To equate Israel's punitive and deterrent raids with the nazi-like bestiality of Palestinian terrorists is patently ridiculous. Though the loss to humanity may be similar, there is a true difference in the aims, rationality, and justification of such...
