I never thought I would see it happen

Today a new policy was announced by Indymedia moderators, one that will see a known Holocaust denier be allowed to publish his "views" free of any ability for others to question or comment upon them.

Because this person writes articles critical of Israel and Zionism he will in future receive a special dispensation from the moderators that will prevent anybody commenting on what he has posted. His opinions can't be refuted, his statements not challenged. the rubicon has been crossed, the line in the sand scrubbed away. everyone crackpot Nazi now knows they have a friend within the Indymedia UK organisation.

I never thought I would see Indymedia stoop so low. I am deeply deeply ashamed of the Indymedia UK newswire
