I will share with you this email I just sent to Fred. Forgive me if this is out of line or appears paranoid: Fred, Regretfully, I tend to agree with you. Raul sent me a Spanish version of his recent posting, as I requested, because (as I'd said), I couldn't deal with his "English". Coincidently, a professional Spanish-English translator friend happened by and I asked for help (since the AltaVista machine wasn't doing very well). She looked over the Spanish text, but declined to help because, she said, the writer was clearly anti-Semitic. I was amazed. I said I had no trouble with persons being anti-Israel or pro-Palestinian. She said, no, this writer is anti-Semitic. She also said that there's a big problem in Argentina, due to its fascist history, that there are extremist communities that have grown up in "radical" reaction, and that, since Raul had also sent me an email with an Islamic salutation (I mentioned), it's possible that he's from Lebanon, since there is a large Lebanese community in urban Argentina, and Islamic fundamentalism is alive in Argentina. __________________________________________________ Terrorist Attacks on U.S. - How can you help?
