“THROW THE RASCALS OUT” –

TOKYO — U.S. midterm congressional elections are pretty humdrum affairs that usually produce low voter turnouts. But this Nov. 7 vote is shaping up as the most exciting and important midterm election in modern American history.

The upcoming vote has generated extraordinary interest around the globe. Polls in Asia, Europe, and Latin America show the widely-expressed hope that American voters will deliver a stinging rebuke to the Bush administration and end its war in Iraq.

This week, a senior State Department official finally spoke the truth about administration policies in Iraq, calling them “arrogant and stupid.” He later retracted his statement, but the damage was done.

Exhibits A & B: The increasingly out-of-touch Vice President Dick Cheney just assured listeners on a recent radio show that the catastrophic war he and the neoconservatives engineered in Iraq was going “remarkably well.” And President George Bush commanded the powerless puppet government the U.S. installed in Baghdad to “get tough” with powerful Shia militias.

Judy Andreas and Paul Fromm

Paul Fromm’s Ordeal

By Judy Andreas

David Duke’s comments: Judy Andreas is a courageous woman of Jewish background who has stood up against the expressions of Jewish supremacism in both Palestine and in America. I trust her sincerity and dedication to truth and freedom. In this article she writes about my good friend Paul Fromm and his struggles with the Canadian authorities simply for speaking out for freedom of speech and defending those who have been jailed and harassed for daring to criticize Jewish extremism.As you read this article you can’t help but realize that even our most basic freedoms are under attack in the West.

The first time I heard Paul Fromm was when he was a guest on Hesham Tillawi’s show Current Issues TV. Mr. Fromm is with the Canadian Association for Free Expression and goes to bat for people accused of “thought crimes”. The whole concept of “thought crimes” boggles my mind. After all, since when are “thoughts” punishable? Is the government now taking up residence in our minds? It makes me wonder whether totalitarianism is still creeping or has it begun galloping. And so, I applauded Mr. Fromm for, what appeared to me, his honorable mission. On October 21st, I met Paul Fromm in New York City when I attended his lecture on Marxism. The talk was scholarly and fair. It was after the lecture, that I learned about Paul Fromm’s ordeal.

I was appalled to learn that on October 9th of this year, Paul Fromm was detained for over two hours by Canada Customs. The incident occurred as he was returning from Seattle for a speaking engagement in Vancouver. His luggage and pockets were searched. The operatives for the Canada Border Services Agency took a book that was on Mr. Fromm’s person; Race, Intelligence and Bias in Academe. Apparently, this book fell into the category of “hate propaganda”. In addition, they cleared and then seized Mr. Fromm’s laptop for further investigation. Fromm recalls: “When I went through primary inspection, the female agent wrote the number “1″ on my declaration. I was immediately signaled over after I had picked up my luggage.” (more…)
