God to Bobby Fischer: Checkmate!

Several years ago (October 2005, actually), on a now-defunct blog I started called "Letters from Desolation Row", I declared war on the country of Iceland.

At the time of my declaration of war, I was virtually alone in standing against the Scandi Menace. My only overt allies in the Icelandic-war effort were LauraW and Sobek Pundit. Even Ace, who later came around to publicly decry the Nordic Scourge, stood silent.

In the fog of war, I had a moment of clarity. I understood what it was to be Churchill in a blogosphere of Chamberlains.

Why did I declare war on Iceland? I had numerous reasons, but this was on the bill of particulars:

"Third, they are just going out of their way to make it easy to dislike them. Look who their biggest national hero, and newly minted citizen is: noted anti-semitic loon Bobby Fischer, a man who openly advocates the destruction of the United States.

It's rhetoric like this that earns you Icelandic citizenship, apparently:

Here is a taste of the real Bobby Fischer, as profiled by Rene Chun in The Atlantic in 2002: 'The Jews are a 'filthy, lying bastard people,' bent on world domination through such insidious schemes as the Holocaust ('a money-making invention'), the mass murder of Christian children ('their blood is used for black-magic ceremonies'), and junk food (William Rosenberg, the founder of Dunkin' Donuts, is singled out as a culprit)."

Here is an excerpt from a radio interview with Fischer broadcast in the Philippines, hailing the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001: ''This is all wonderful news," Fischer announced. ''I applaud the act. The US and Israel have been slaughtering the Palestinians, just slaughtering them for years. Robbing them and slaughtering them. Nobody gave a [expletive]. Now it's coming back to the US. [Expletive] the US. I want to see the US wiped out."

You've shown your cards, Iceland. Now it's Jack's turn to play. Trust me...it will be easier on you if you just act like France and surrender to me now. The reach of the 'Tower is long. The footsoldiers are legion. And Reykjavik is poised to fall."

And now Bobby Fischer is dead. You will see eulogies to him in the press. You might read obituaries that swoon over his one golden moment in the sun: the 1972 defeat of Boris Spassky. I read one this morning that essentially compared Fischer's victory to the 1980 USA Hockey Team, while merely glossing over the man's vehement anti-semitism and anti-Americanism as "eccentricities."

Please.

I doubt you'll see much more than oblique references to the other side of Bobby Fischer. For all his chess genius, this man was no hero. He was a vile, inhuman, America hating douche. And when no one else in the world would harbor him from American justice, Iceland did so gleefully and triumphantly.

I certainly hope that Fischer was asked to make an accounting for himself today. And I really hope that the last thing his eternal soul heard was God saying "checkmate".

As for Iceland? They can now retreat back into the obscurity from which they emerged.

At least until another chess-playing, jew-hating, anti-american douchetool re-emerges on the scene. In which case, I have no doubt this land of herring-munching, ice-pricks will be more than happy to claim him as a native son.

Oh..and just as an after-thought to upset the Paultards: Apparently Fischer and Ron Paul share the same belief in "America had 9/11 coming blowback". Interesting, that.
