The Hoffman Wire


Dedicated to Freedom of the Press, Investigative Reporting
and Revisionist History


"Revisionist history"? Kinda says it all, don't it. Translation: we
don't like the facts of history, so we're revising them to suit our
prejudices and agendas.
I highlight here a few revisions I noticed in this post:



In the mid-1980s, Bobby Fischer, the world chess champion,


Revision #1: Fischer was no longer world chess champion then. He
resigned the title in 1975.

In their obituary reporting today, both the NY Times and
National Public Radio (NPR)-Morning Edition have omitted
the extent to which Mr. Fischer was harassed by the
Talmudic-vindictive US government.


Revision #2: The US government may at times be vindictive, but it is
hardly "Talmudic." The US Consitution is based on ideas of the
European Elnilghtenment, not on a collection of rabbinical
commentaries.

They are not reporting
the disgraceful fact that at the time of his death, Bobby
was a hunted fugitive, allegedly for playing a chess game
in Yugolsavia [sic]


Revision #3: Fischer "alledgedly played a chess game"? Yo, Hoffman
-- it's an established fact he played a whole match, 30 games, in
Yugoslavia in 19992.

without Bill Clinton's permission,


Revision #4: Bill clinton's permission, or lack thereof, is entirely
irrelevant. In 1992 the US President was George Herbert Walker Bush.

Here is the letter I wrote to the editor of the NY Times
this morning, protesting their whitewashed obituary.


To the Editor


The New York Times' Jan. 18 obituary for Bobby Fischer
makes almost no mention of how the U.S. government hounded
him across the globe,


Revision #5: What "hounding"? AFAIK, after 1992, the US government
undertook no active pursuit of Fischer for over a decade. He was left
alone in self-imposed exile, traveling freely around the world on an
American passport, with no attempts at extradition.

When he died he was a fugitive wanted -- since the
1990s -- by the U.S. government, on trumped up charges
related more to his opposition to Judaism and Zionism than
to his having played chess in Yugoslavia while that nation
was under sanctions.


Riiiight. By that logic, every anti-Semite in the USA (and there are
plenty of them) ought to be under federal indictment. They aren't.

Moreover, you claim that his mother was Judaic. I have a
letter from him stating that he was not of Judaic descent,
an assertion he maintained throughout his life.


Revision #6: Fischer can assert all he wants, but one does not
choose one's parents. His were Regina Fischer and Paul Nemenyi,
*_both_* Jewish. Fischer chose not to practice the Jewish religion,
but that has no bearing on his ancestry.

Michael A. Hoffman II


Here's what the Times (and NPR) omitted (courtesy of AP):


"Fischer played -- and won -- an exhibition rematch against
Spassky on the resort island of Sveti Stefan, but the game
was in violation of U.S. sanctions imposed to punish then-
President Slobodan Milosevic.


Hmmmm ... now the "alledged" chess match is treated as fact. A tad
inconsistent, eh?

America's only world chess champion was jailed for nine
months ... Western
Syphillization ...maintains its power .. .by jailing ...
national chess heroes.


Please list the other "national chess heroes" the USA has jailed.

Disclaimer: The Hoffman Wire is a controversial and
politically incorrect e-mail letter intended only for those
who have requested it.


Translation: The Hoffman Wire is a sewer pipe pumping effluvia into
the minds of those foolish enough to accept it.

We have a strict anti-spamming
policy.


Good. Please observe it, and quit spamming this newsgroup.


Thanks for your interesting comments. But please note that this sewage
was brought to you not by Hoffman but by "Dr" "Jai" "Maharaj", who
specializes in such second-hand spamming. He, of course, has no anti-
spamming policy and will pay no attention to your request.
