IF FISCHER, WHY NOT MANY OTHERS?
By Larry Parr
A witch hunt. Bobby Fischer is to lose his membership because of
his support for terrorist actions.
What about Indonesian members, if the USCF has any, who support the
Aceh separatists? What about Jewish USCF members who support the Irgun and
the blowing up of innocent English civilians in the Hotel David? What about
Jewish USCF members who favor the terrorist organizations uncovered among
Israeli settlers in the occupied territories? What about Palestinian or
Arab members, if we have any, that support suicide bombings in Israel as a
way to end the 35-year occupation of their land? What about American
USCFers who, in retrospect, support the destruction of the property and
persons of loyalists who supported Goerge III? What about Irish members who
support the IRA?
What about this writer and others who favor the United States
getting out of the Middle East because we are ASKING FOR such terrorist acts
by playing the role of imperialist?
What about Jerry Bibuld? An old Stalinist, who has supported
(publicly) terrorists throughout Black Africa?
