[kj] OT... World Destruction

[Neil Perry]

Not getting involved in this, but feel compelled to butt in regarding
Rwanda - the tragedy there had absolutely nothing to do with capitalism.
It may have had its roots in European colonialism, possibly, but not
capitalism. The deaths - approximately 800,000 - were caused by one ethnic group, the Hutus, attempting to completely wipe out another ethnic group, the Tutsis.

How many have capitalism killed? 500,000 in Rowanda? 1.5 million in Iraq, JUST under Bill Clinton (not to mention the ongoing killilngs by the CIA-installed Hussein)? 2 or more million in Asia during the Vietnam War? 20 million in WWII? etc. etc. Besides, how many lives did the capitalists' main enemy of all time, the evil Stalin, save by stopping Hitler in his tracks?
