No Mark,I already said he served in Vietnam.

No Mark,I already have been transparent.
Quote:It's hate speech that is the issue Ed.Hate speech that has the capacity to influence the gullible.So what is the target audience for "Veterans Today"?There are probably 25 million veterans in this country,and I can assure you only a very small percentage of them would agree with Gordon Duff's viewpoint and tactics.
That's why I said that Duff should change the name of the webpage.It doesn't reflect at all the viewpoint of the vast majority of veterans.In fact it's a complete turnoff.If Gordon Duff named the webpage something like "The Duff Veterans Report",I wouldn't be saying this stuff,because that means "he owns what is put up there".But Duff plays with words,as the name "Veterans Today",seems to imply that this is how Veterans are and think.Do you understand that Ed?
A turnoff for you maybe but I agree with what he says. So what if his newsletter is called veterans today? He is a veteran. You claim he doesn't reflect the vast majority of veterans, but who made you spokesman for the vast majority of veterans?
And what is this hate speech you speak of? Does criticism of Israel suddenly qualify as hate speech, especially when the facts prove it to be fully justified?
