Personally I think it has all to do with EJs views
especially in relation to recent postings and
Johns reply.

I don't think Vienna is deciding what should or should
not be published on this list.

Further more there might be some fruitful discussions
resulting fom Professor Kennedy's views based on
such works by EJ as _Gordische Knoten_ und _Weltstaat_.

I would like to start with:

"Es ist eine alte Streitfrage, ob die despotischen Verfassungen
urspruenglicher sind als die freien, wiw viele annehmen. Auch
Spengler vetritt diese Meinung; er glaubt, dass die Sprache sich
aus einfachen Imperativen wie 'tu das' und 'lass jenes' entwickelt
hat. (p. 402). From _Der gordische Knoten_.

Let's keep our postings on topic, i.e. let's always make a direct =
reference to either Juenger's life or his books or an aspect in his =
philosophy. I don't think America's role in the world or other similarly =
"loaded" issues should be discussed here, at least not without explicit =
reference to Juenger -- there are so many other forums to do that.=20

As someone who's been on the Juenger list from day one I can only say =
that discussing politics just doesn't do this list any good. We've been =
through our flame wars during the Kosovo war and I personally wouldn't =
want to see that happening again.=20
