It used to be that “we, as the vicitms of 911, have the responsibility…innumerable American lives.” Now it is because we are the world’s leader that we need to protect human lives. What other enemies do we, as the world’s leader, have the duty to defeat?

And how can DB describe the work of a Jew as non-partisan?

“Here we might mention just a few points on the economics of socialism. One, since ownership is, de facto, the control of a resource, a Nazi, Fascist or other ‘centrally planned’ system is as much ‘socialism’ as a Communist regime that officially nationalizes property.”

p. 830 Man, Economy and State (LA: Nash)

Here it is conceded that the Nazi/Fascist system does not “nationalize property” yet by virtue of “central planning” and thus “control of the resources” it is, in Rothbard’s opinion, a form of socialism.

To your second question, one could indeed say that the only difference between it and Communism is the latter’s denial (rather than mere restriction) of private property, provided one is analyzing things strictly from the standpoint of markets.

Thus, typically libertarians project “free market” at one end of the axis, and both communism and fascism at the other end, the latter perhaps separated from each other by a vertical axis representing a second dimension.

However, there are other perspectives from which to analyze differences. Most notably would be this: Communism professes to analyze social tensions in terms of class differences that span nations, while fascism seeks to further the interests of all classes within its own tribe/nation.

If, for fun, you take the individual or his “voluntary associations” as the new definition of “class,” then you could almost say that libertarianism has something in common with Communism over against fascism. On the other hand, grass-roots free-marketism, with its natural affinity to family and national integrity, has some affinities with fascism over against communism. Then again, grass-roots communism ends up appealing to those same instincts as well.

When the neo-cons call terrorists “fascists” they are not appealing to any denotation of the word at all. They are simply letting their imagination run wild from documentaries they have seen of men marching in goose step and crowds shouting acclaim while performing the Caesar salute, coupled with visions of the “Holocaust.” Thus (somehow) 19 skinny Arab boys that fly airplanes into buildings suddenly are “fascists.”

The real irony is that the cartoon-image of fascism that they are basing their rhetoric on — mind control, demonizing enemies by propaganda, censoring contrary points of view, etc. — actually describes them, the neo-cons themselves.

When do you suppose our leaders will start to talk about judeo-fascism?

During the 2004 elections, Sandlin used to assert that Constitution Party candidate Michael Peroutka advocated national socialism, because Peroutka argued for financing the fed govt by tariff rather than income tax. On his chat room, I posted the request for just one citation from a published economics book that would support that definition of “national socialism.” Naturally, there was no answer. Such a citation does not exist.

For the neo-con, it doesn’t matter if words used in political discourse have a meaning. What is important for them is not in the first place truth, but manipulation. If words get people to do their agenda, they are satisfied.

Islamo-facism would be the merger of Corporate/Business/Government and Religious powers to promote the interest of the Nation/State. Hmmmm…. sounds like the policies of the Royal house of Saud, our so called allies in the Middle East. The Bid Laden family is quite wealthy too so I suspect they would be Islamo-fascist themselves.

So it looks to me like the Christian-fundamentalist of America have aligned themselves with the Islamo-facist of Saudia Arabia to snuff the “out” a rival group of Islamo-facist of Bid Laden family. For the end result to jointly snuff Democracy world wide and establish the great Islamic-Christian fundamentalist-”freetrade-Big Bidness”-facist world wide government of the Corporations, By the Corporations, for the Corporations and supported by the Religious Kooks of the world.
