EDITOR'S bibliography bio email

EDITOR'S NOTE: PoetryRepairShop severed all ties to Amazon.Com which has been a sponsor and with which we have been associates. I ask you to do likewise. The reason is simple:

Dear Friends,
As you may know, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is an antisemtic book written by the Czarist secret service early in this century, that has been supremely and fatally successful in spreading the theory of an international Jewish conspiracy to take over the world and harm non-Jews. It is today a best seller among neo-Nazis, and in such countries as Jordan, Syria, Egypt and among the Palestinians. Experts on antisemitism see it as one of the most dangerous books ever written, responsible for the loss of untold jewish life. amazon.com has chosen to sell this book. That is their right, although legitimate booksellers in America do not sell it. What is absolutely immoral and irresponsible, is that they review the book positively, saying that it has not been proven to be a "hoax" -- that is, that it can be read as a valid expose of the Jewish plot to destroy everyone else. The president of Amazon was informed about this problem, and nothing has been done to remove the review.

I would not shop in a store that sells neo-Nazi hate literature.

I will never buy a book from Amazon.com again, and I urge you to do the same, and to let them know why.

p.s. please forward this letter to everyone on your email list. it is vitally imporant that Amazon realize that the American public will not support pandering to neo-Nazis for profit.

I checked Amazon's catalog and found books written AGAINST the theories of the Black Judas and other racists but found NO BOOK BY the Black Judas; Should we be able to read the words of the Black Judas and judge for ourselves? Why is it that Amazon.com cannot bring itself to one policy toward racist, antisemitic, and ALL hate-mongering texts?
