Aug 27, 2010 - Damn this guy is great, we hate great people in Pakistan, we hated our first Nobel Prize winner because he was a Ahmadi, and I have never heard of this man and that's assuming its down to him being an Atheist.. yet idiots like Zaid Hamid are capturing the minds of young people..what ignorant society..

Aug 25, 2010 - @robtul12 - I agree he is an educated and eloquent speaker with facts no-one wants to talk about especially in the USA. I am normally appalled by communism but I was impressed with his knowledge. It is important to understand people from different walks of life that is why I believe Education and Many Points of Views / Interpretations - Max Rafael Waller

They can't go across the street to the store without their own people blowing them up.. They never talk about the good things that America has done for that country. Those people are swimming in tons of shit right now, and who's feeding them..? That's right motherfucker, AMERICA. So, kiss my natural black ass..!

Aug 12, 2010 - @kskshghg White Americans voted for a black man (Obama) because they hoped that a black man would be an "outsider" who would free America from the "insider white" corporate forces which control both the Republican and Democratic parties. After winning the election, Hillary Clinton immediately introduced Obama to the shadow government of corporate America and Obama turned into a Bush clone.

kskshghg Says:

Aug 1, 2010 - He has Obama about accurate, but he should be even stronger. Obama is a corporatist robot. Disgusting betrayal.

Jul 4, 2010 - @LaraAnguizola I don't care who you do or don't support because your points are stupid boilerplate histrionic crap focusing on people the US doesn't like.

LaraAnguizola Says:

Jul 4, 2010 - @ahuj89 Who exactly do I support? do you even know? rather reactionary to start assuming who do I support. Everybody has the choice to choose to support ghaddafi's and mugabe's lynch mobs, west, east, north wherever it comes from. I certainly know that Tariq chose the former ones, and what he chose is what matters here. Who knows what you believe in, its not my problem, most importantly, it doesn't even matter, and I am not even going to ask you.

ahuj89 Says:

Jul 3, 2010 - @LaraAnguizola You would have a point if you didn't support similarly or worsely reprehensible people just by living the lifestyle you do and voting for the people that do it. Which is his entire point actually. And the "wine and cheese" thing is just juvenile nonsense but what would you expect from a moralistic liberal.The only thing that distinguishes Mugabe from all the other dictators the West supports is that he tried to do land reform.

LaraAnguizola Says:

Jun 25, 2010 - Isn't it easy? just simply things. Cuba? yeah, just let them rot in there, just as long they sovereign under the Castro Monarchy. Zimbabwe? its all good, just let Mugabe slaughter as many people as he can in the name of battling imperialism, after all, it will all look good in Tariq Ali's guyere cheese with wine academic articles. Wake up ! wake up! wake up!

axlbernard Says:

Jun 16, 2010 - @andyx1205 yeah its cool that we can all go to wikipedia and find stuff out about Tariq Ali but it really doesn't address any of my points. regardless he's a good critic, i just can't stand the smug, self righteous delivery. also i don't see how his oxford education has anything to do with his inability to deliver a speech or lecture without making me want to tug on his high and mighty airs and 'intellectual' moustache.

andyx1205 Says:

Jun 15, 2010 - @axlbernard Tariq Ali is indeed a great communicator. It is not because he is "talking to Marxists," but rather his background. When he was studying at Oxford, he was elected the President of the Oxford Union, which is a debating society founded in the early 1800s. Hence he gets "riled up" easily if we can call it that.
