Reply #46: there is no conflict, he was told not to go to prague, this is a publicity stunt IMHO

[pitohui]

duke makes a lot of $$$ going to foreign countries, posing as a senator from louisiana (which he never was), and getting funds from anti-semites (such as in syria) and from prominent neo-nazis (he had many neo-nazi supporters who kept him living in the style to which he was accustomed in russia during his time on the lam from the usa federal law)

duke is a thief who didn't pay state or federal income tax for 20 years on money he stole from supporters by spouting neo-nazi hate and then taking the money and gambling it like crazy in the casinos -- yet he ended up serving only a token sentence even though he spent three years on the run

you try not paying taxes for 20 years, you try getting garbage bags full of cash from your supporters at rallies, and then gambling that cash in public casinos where everyone sees you spending many thousands of dollars at a time -- you do that for 20 years, then when you're caught for tax evasion, you run out of the country and live in russia for 3 years and only come back when you've cut a very token short sentence deal in a min. security prison!!!!

you would never get that deal, only this guy with his knowledge of where the bodies are buried (there are lots of hidden racists in this country) could get that deal

duke has just spent A LOT Of time in syria getting money from interests fundamentally opposed to american ideals of equality and fairness, esp. promoting the anti-jewish screed he has written, he is being paid to spread hate against our allies in israel and also spreading propaganda aga. our soldiers fighting in iraq -- you may not like the war in iraq but it crosses a line when you start making out the soldier on the ground there to be a war criminal at a time when they're under a hella lot of stress to begin with

he has gotten away with much too much, and he was even warned (according to what i just read, i've not seen the guy around these parts since his jail sentence) NOT to go to prague to promote his anti-semitic book -- he had EVERY chance to back away -- instead he prefers to grab the attention of his neo-nazi buddies and keep his worthless ass in the news -- he knew the law, he just didn't fucking care

sorry for the rant, but this "person" hardly qualifies as a human being and it just gets my goat that he was allowed to walk away with SO MUCH $$$ for spreading hate

propagandists and those who spread hate, yah, put them in prison, there is no reason to be promoting the views of hitler during a time of war
