Left, er... right... that is, left... er...

Melbourne Indymedia is a:

website produced by grassroots media makers offering non-corporate coverage of struggles, actions and celebrations. Everyone is a witness. Everyone is a journalist.

It's part of the progressive left, offering the following feature sections:

anti-war
migration
climate change
ecology
students
work
health
gender
culture
indymedia
global news
anti-nuclear
anti-racism
civil liberties
anti-corporate
miscellaneous
social movements

It also prohibits:

Posts which use language, imagery, or other forms of communication to promote racism, fascism, xenophobia, homophobia, sexism etc., or any other form of discrimination.

But as a part of the Stop The War progressive left/ radical Islamist alliance it is entirely natural for them to publich a piece by... David Duke, fresh back from the Iranian Holocaust conference where he said gas chambers were not used to kill Jews, and added:

"The Zionists have used the Holocaust as a weapon to deny the rights of the Palestinians and cover up the crimes of Israel," Duke told a gathering of nearly 70 "researchers" in Tehran at Ahmadinejad's invitation.

"This conference has an incredible impact on Holocaust studies all over the world," said Duke, a former state representative in Louisiana who twice ran for president.

"The Holocaust is the device used as the pillar of Zionist imperialism, Zionist aggression, Zionist terror and Zionist murder," Duke told The Associated Press.

It would be wrong to suggest that Duke, who founded the White Youth Alliance in 1970 and the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan in 1974, is a racist, though:

Duke is a self-styled "white nationalist," and he is commonly referred to as a white supremacist. He says he does [not - this is Wikipedia error] think of himself as a racist, however, stating that he is a "racial realist" and that he believes that "all people have a basic human right to preserve their own heritage." He speaks against racial integration and in favor of white separatism

So I guess he doesn't break any Indymedia guidelines. And his non-racist, progressive thoughts for the festive season?

Should Christians Support Israel?

This broadcast is dedicated and directed to my Christian listeners. May we not let “Fear of the Jews” prevent us from doing what’s right -- dd

(yes, you can download them as a podcast, and share them with guests over afternoon tea)

Recently, I have been shocked and appalled by the unqualified support by some Christian televangelists for the most anti-Christian religion on the face of the earth, Judaism. They also support the corrupt, Jewish supremacist, anti-Christian Israeli state. I know that some of you reading this may respond by saying that Islam is really the most anti-Christian religion and that Judaism is a friendly faith. Many mistakenly think that Judaism is a sister religion to Christianity. The term “Judeo-Christian” has entered our modern lexicon to the point where no politician, George Bush on down, would dare even invoke the term “Christian heritage” without adding the prefix, “Judeo” to it. The term “Judeo-Christian” didn’t even come into existence until after the Second World War when Jews became supreme in their influence over major media.

The truth is that there is no such thing as Judeo-Christianity. That would be like saying Satanic-Christianity. The religion now called Judaism did not even come formally into existence until six hundred years after Jesus Christ. It began with the codification of the Babylonian Talmud. In Judaism, the Talmud is the supreme scripture, not the Old Testament. Only Satanism can rival Judaism’s vicious hatred for Jesus Christ. The Talmud even claims that Jesus Christ is being punished in hell by “being boiled in hot semen!”

Another mince pie, vicar?
