Ariel70,
I may have been wrong about the innocent intent of your writings! I look forward to reading your rebuttal to my "pernicious racist nonsense"!

The issues raised in our exchange of comments are highly complex, and I consider it far too tedious to attempt to deal with them in a further exchange of comments.
It is in any case doubtful if the responding to comments in an instantaneous, off-the-cuff manner would serve further to elucidate our relative, and conflicting, views on current and historical events.
I have this morning spent several hours trawling thro' the posts on your blog, and I intend to shift this debate out of the relative privacy of our commants sections and into public debate
It is not in my nature to mount personal attacks upon my fellow bloggers, nor do I intend to deviate from this courtesy in your case. But I intend some time soon to write a post in which I shall endeavour to rebut much of the pernicious racist nonsense that you propagate. I shall of course inform you when it is posted, and shall look forward to your response.

Ariel70,
A very well account and it appears that you are in a place where you can feel the spirit of fallen! I don't know why you you not see the parallels! I feel today's conflicts and atrocities will have better visuals for future generations! George Bush and Tony Blair will have the rest of their lives on this Planet to account for this genocide! And eventually they may leave this Planet unjudged but I will not endorse their madness!

Ariel70,
You left some very poignant comments in my writing! I find it very interesting that you see Racism and comparisons to Nazism in my writings! As opposed to seeing a comtempt for the notion of "White or European Supremacy"! It is clear when viewing or witnessing injustice from different perspectives we form different opinions! The Colonialist Manifesto did not save the "Brown Race" from a primitive existence it caused it! See the present day equal: "Bomb Iraq Back Into the Stone Age"!
I do not simplify "complex historical facts"! It is the "White Man" who has slanted history to his advantage! For every "brave" conquest of your ancestors there was an equally or more courageous victim!
You have people like Pat Buchanan claiming European Immigrants to America are ok because they are "good White Folk", while condemning "Brown and Black immigration?? I have to deal with today's so called Leaders of the "Free White World"!
Now let me read your Blog!

Ariel,
I for one would be fascinated by having you convey to us the gritty reality of those events, as seen through the eyes of children, since most of those alive in those days must have been very young. Of course, those men and women, in reaching back to their childhood, must traverse a lifetime of experiences, but it may well be worth the effort.
By the way, thanks for commenting on my sonnet.
