   Modern Marxists, such as the ones here in England who go under the name Stop   
   the War and the Green Party, are addicted to it. Why, one of them is in one   
   of the papers I work on this very week, saying: 'Iran is a civilised,   
   non-nuclear country being bullied and purged in a conspiracy between the   
   Bush diktat and modern capitalism. We must discover our compassionate   
   mutualities to build a diverse and peaceful planet.'   
      
   The man is about 50-55, long grey hair and the bony, smug look of the   
   lifelong middle-class squatter/loafer/druggy/public sector idler. His piece   
   went unremarked until I and a colleague pointed out its manifest nonsense.   
   The journalist who canvassed this man's opinions, has also brought in a   
   prominent Muslim to write, who, on one occasion blithely called - in windy   
   politicalese - for media blackouts if a Muslim was arrested on suspicion of   
   terrorist activity; no other member of society, just Muslims. The   
   journalist, a middle class Communist from Leeds in his 20s, sees nothing   
   wrong in this at all. He, by the look of him, feels rather virtuous.
