Anti fascist?

Stephen Schwartz does not seem to much care for Justin Raimondo:

....Referring to the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, he wrote, “one needn’t refer to fiction when the relevant facts are so readily available.” (In other words, the Protocols may be fake, but they tell the truth.) According to Raimondo, “Today, the word ‘fascist’ is the political equivalent of the ‘f’-word, rendered virtually meaningless on account of its degeneration into pure epithet. Yet, Israel in its present trajectory fits the classic definition of fascism.” And: “Israel, far from being our faithful ally, is potentially an enemy.”

Almost as intense as his hatred for the Jewish state is Raimondo’s loathing of democracy. Some may have been taken aback by the volume of his bile when he denounced the “orange revolution” in Ukraine as well as the current democratizing efforts in Lebanon. But not those who have followed Raimondo’s prominent association with the Russian Jew-baiting website, Pravda.ru, and its American contributor, the neo-Nazi Bill White.

There's much more, of course.

I remember when Raimondo was a Libertarian. As I've noted before, he's reduced himself to being a defender of anti-Semitism.

Pity.

Maybe he'll come out of it.

UPDATE (03/19/05): As pointed out by InstaPundit, "Dennis" doesn't have the same ring as, well, Justin.

No wisecracks, please. This name-wringing stuff is very serious business.
