Re: <nettime> geertogram III


The strange rants of Chomsky and Gilder together were quite bizarre.
Unfortunately, they did not cancel each other. Gilder seems to be unaware of
the source of Usama bin Laden's money.  While most of it came from his
daddy's exclusive government contracts to spiff up Mecca and Medina, he has
shown himself to be an entrepreneur with his construction business in Sudan
as well as investments in Somalia, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Belgium, and
Netherlands.  Undoubtedly his money is laundered somewhere in Europe or
perhaps S. Asia.  I think he's a pretty astute capitalist, even if his
interpretations of Islam are terribly off-base.
