re: #394 Walter L. Newton

I thought you were highlighting what Griffin said because you saw some truth in it. Other than you comment, I don’t know Griffin or even ever heard of him. I was simply bouncing off the 1984 reference.

I already said I was sorry for mistaking your post with any approval on your part for Griffins thoughts.

Again, I’m sorry (I don’t know how clearer I can be).

Hey, apology accepted and don’t worry about it. I wrote about Griffin because the documentary videos gave him ample time to present his case. I’ve have 1984 and Animal Farm, but I haven’t read any other works by Orwell. I think you’re correct in saying nobody here has ever experienced totalitarianism. If there is a country today that fits that description, it’s North Korea. More the horror that something like 1984 can and does exist. That having been said, I can’t think of a literary figure that better characterizes the truth movement’s position on bin Laden better than Goldstein. To the truthers, bin Laden is the nemesis that fuels the perpetual war.
