Garry Kasparov Endorsement for Bigotry

Lindsay Graham and Garry Kasparov, two Neocon Peas in a Pod

It is not Irony. It is an act.
The Neocons wanted the Fascist Bush Dynasty such as Jeb Bush or one of their fellow Neocons, like Hillary to get elected. Americans (Republicans) were so turned off and tuned out to Neocons and their illicit warmongering, that Trump ran on the Republican ticket defrauding Americans that he was opposed to the establishment Neocons. But I knew what would happen: As soon as he was elected, under the guise of opposing Neocons — deceiving Americans, the Neocons would slowly slither back into power. And that is exactly what they've done.
Neocon John Bolton is back to business as usual peddling war on Iran. Neocon Nikki Haley was attempting to rouse hatred and warmongering against Venezuela. The easily duped Americans, are supporting Neocon warmongers… and defrauded into the false belief, “Trump is anti-establishment”. Trump IS the Neocon Establishment, at its worst and ugliest and most deceptive.
Notice the identical rhetoric played out by Neocon Lindsay Graham (SC) and Neocon Kasparov… who used his connections to dispose of his Nemesis, Bobby Fischer… illegally, brutally, unconstitutionally (ILLEGALLY) war criminally… defrauding the American people.

This is not Irony, nor coincidence. It is staged. It is fraud. It is deceit. It is concerted collusion from many fronts to deceive the world... and divert focus off their war crimes and human rights abuses abroad.

Huffington Post: A Reminder That Donald Trump Once Thought It Was Funny To Give Poor Students A Fake $1 Million Bill
“Trump stopped by a bake sale the chess team was hosting to raise money to go to a tournament, The Washington Post and The New York Times first reported. As a joke, he handed a fake $1 million bill to the parents running it.
[…]
Trump’s visit to P.S. 70 did have a happy ending for the chess team. After a woman read about the businessman’s behavior in The New York Times, she donated the remaining $5,000.”

NYTimes: Kasparov is Soundly Defeated
“The candidates crisscrossed the globe in a long, bitter campaign for support. Each side charged the other with trying to secure votes through dirty dealing and bribery, charges that were elevated after secret contracts signed by the candidates were put online this year.
One contract was between Mr. Kasparov and Ignatius Leong, a Singaporean chess official who was the general secretary of the federation and Mr. Ilyumzhinov’s lieutenant. In the contract, Mr. Kasparov, through his foundation, agreed to pay a scholastic chess foundation run by Mr. Leong up to $1 million in return for Mr. Leong’s securing votes for Mr. Kasparov’s election.”

“President Trump ranks right up there with George Washington and Honest Abe Lincoln.”
- Garry Kasparov

Problem is @Kasparov63 does not.

Garry Kasparov your dirty connections and bribery with Neocon politicians will not blur the truth of what you Neocon criminals did to Bobby Fischer. Not even in a million years:

'til the world understands why Robert J. Fischer criticised the U.S./British and Russian military industry imperial alliance and their own Israeli Apartheid. Sarah Wilkinson explains:

Bobby Fischer, First Amendment, Freedom of Speech
What a sad story Fischer was,” typed a racist, pro-imperialist colonial troll who supports mega-corporation entities over human rights, police state policies & white supremacy.
To which I replied: “Really? I think he [Bob Fischer] stood up to the broken system of corruption and raised awareness! Whether on the Palestinian/Israel-British-U.S. Imperial Apartheid scam, the Bush wars of ‘7 countries in 5 years,’ illegally, unconstitutionally which constituted mass xenocide or his run in with police brutality in Pasadena, California-- right here in the U.S., police run rampant over the Constitution of the U.S., on oath they swore to uphold, but when Americans don't know the law, and the cops either don't know or worse, “don't care” -- then I think that's pretty darn “sad”. I think Mr. Fischer held out and fought the good fight, steadfast til the day he died, and may he Rest In Peace.
Educate yourself about U.S./State Laws --

After which the troll posted a string of profanities, confirming there was never any genuine sentiment of “compassion” for Mr. Fischer, rather an intent to inflict further defamatory remarks.

This ongoing work is a tribute to the life and accomplishments of Robert “Bobby” Fischer who passionately loved and studied chess history. May his life continue to inspire many other future generations of chess enthusiasts and kibitzers, alike.

Robert J. Fischer, Kid Chess Wizard 1956March 9, 1943 - January 17, 2008

The photograph of Bobby Fischer (above) from the March 02, 1956 The Tampa Times was discovered by Sharon Mooney (Bobby Fischer Newspaper Archive editor) on February 01, 2018 while gathering research materials for this ongoing newspaper archive project. Along with lost games now being translated into Algebraic notation and extractions from over two centuries of newspapers, it is but one of the many lost treasures to be found in the pages of old newspapers since our social media presence was first established November 11, 2017.
