It denounces the thesis of Trump as Unprecedented Evil, as Neo-Nazi Tyrant and other nonsense eternally repeated in the hysterical liberal/leftist echo-chamber.Robbo-Replying to your #208865 ….
As to your second point, the purpose of this part of the definition (‘Denying the Jewish people their right to self-determination’) is almost certainly purely and simply intended to delegitimise any possible rising tide of support for the ‘One-State’ solution. (As opposed to a hypothetical world-universal No-State solution.) But their reply (if any) would be very interesting indeed, yes.
PS: Among self-identifying Jews in the US, support for the One-State solution has according to these figures anyway risen to 13%: https://mondoweiss.net/2020/11/a-biden-presidency-would-bring-huge-pressure-on-liberal-zionists-from-pro-bds-jews/ (About the middle of that page.) And it is reasonably guessed to be around 25% among the young.A much better obituary of Fisk than the Guardian’s.

Paul Mattick’s comment on posts https://www.worldsocialism.org/spgb/forum/topic/the-new-recession-is-arriving/page/12/#post-208177 to https://www.worldsocialism.org/spgb/forum/topic/the-new-recession-is-arriving/page/13/#post-208187 is the following;‘I wish these critics would address the issue in the Rail. They forget, of course, the “oil crisis”, a successful attempt to increase prices by restricting supply, which forced a general.price increase. But it is also generally recognized that increased taxation and interest rates also impelled businesses to raise prices.’There was a US presidential election in which the WSPUS had a presidential candidate (1932?? 1936??). I can’t remember his name and can’t remember where I read it. I thought maybe in Karla’s book but when I went back and looked for it I didn’t find it. Anyone know his name and the year?
