If the anthrax attack is connected to the 9/11 attack, then the fibbies get to play errand boy for the CIA and military intelligence. If the anthrax attack is internal, then they are in charge and they get to spy on all us right wing extremist hate groups. [...]
What's this 'us' bit? Jim, I don't know what 'right wing extremist hate groups' you may belong to, but don't confuse such groups with the subscribers to this open mailing list, especially to third parties. This is not a 'group', and includes people from every part of the political spectrum. About the only thing that can be said to be in common among subscribers is that they think that crypto is in some way important. Peter Trei

I may be a hate group, but I am NOT a _right wing_ hate group. -- Yours, J.A. Terranson sysadmin@mfn.org If Governments really want us to behave like civilized human beings, they should give serious consideration towards setting a better example: Ruling by force, rather than consensus; the unrestrained application of unjust laws (which the victim-populations were never allowed input on in the first place); the State policy of justice only for the rich and elected; the intentional abuse and occassionally destruction of entire populations merely to distract an already apathetic and numb electorate... This type of demogoguery must surely wipe out the fascist United States as surely as it wiped out the fascist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The views expressed here are mine, and NOT those of my employers, associates, or others. Besides, if it *were* the opinion of all of those people, I doubt there would be a problem to bitch about in the first place... --------------------------------------------------------------------

For the mentally slow, I guess I will have to explain my little joke, thereby spoiling it. Obviously, members of right wing extremist hate groups do not think of themselves or their organizations as right wing, but as centrist or moderate left, nor as hate groups, but as nationalist. Therefore if someone identifies himself as a member of a right wing extremist hate group, this is intended sarcastically. In context, the implication was that the FBI would call cypherpunks a right wing extremist hate group to justify RICO or sedition charges, and the press would report the matter accordingly. Similarly, if someone thinks that Lenin should have gone right ahead with war communism, that Stalin was too soft on the kulaks, and that Pol Pot's economic program would have worked just fine if it had not been sabotaged by the CIA, he does not call himself, or think of himself, as a communist totalitarian extremist, but as an advocate of economic democracy. --digsig James A.
