#1 This f**kin' nitwit. He's correct about only one thing...Paleos have made no progress in 2000 years. That we can agree on.

#4 Hari believes that the influence of the United States on world history has been, on the whole, malign.

Sadly, he did not answer the necessary question, "Compared to what?"

I no longer take anything he says seriously.

#5 Revisionist vomit.

Hari believes that the influence of the United States on world history has been, on the whole, malign.

I prefer the way Winston Churchill put it:

"It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried."

#6 Oh, for the love of... this is stretching a similie way, way beyond any useful point.

Frankly, after a couple of the more brutal murders committed during the current intifada, I stopped giving a damn about the Paleos at all. And I really am beginning to despise twats like this for banging on endlessly and endlessly about how we really ought to care so deeply about them at all.
I don't, I won't and Johann Hari can go to hell with all of his Poor, Persecuted Paleos, as far as I am concerned. And if he could take George Monbiot with him, that would icing on the cake.

#8 Hell, I mostly don't so much worry about handing over the reins of civilization, except I don't want to hand it over to these idiots. Can't we be beaten by someone better? See dummery below.

#9 When a corrupt ideology is in a "Death Spiral", the stories get taller and taller until all falls under the weight of truth. Such a calamity!
All they will have lived are fables (and not very good ones). Living through dead mens eyes.
