You said Zapata couldn't tell Karl Marx from Groucho Marx. Not at all. I said so originally, but when you presented the Millon book, which suggests, implausibly, in my opinion, that Zapata who at best was semi-literate, read turgid Marxist tomes, I specifically said that I would keep open the possibility that he did so in mind. It's not about rehashing Mexican history. It's about backing up claims you haven't retracted despite your knowledge that they are spurious. There is not a shred of evidence to support them. These undefended claims are: had dinner last week with an Hispanic family who, as it happens, gave a lot of material support to victims of the Sandinistas during that era. One of the things that doesn't get brought up much is that they, like the Marxists who took over Mexico and Cuba, were virulently anti-cleric, and killed priests and nuns and others involved with the Catholic Church. Message 21219518 What was the ideological basis for religious persecution in Mexico following the Mexican Revolution if not Marxism? siliconinvestor.com I'll take your dismissal as evidence that you have no proof and that you in fact implicitly retract these statements. Have a nice day, too!
