I have no sympathy for the imperialist enthusiasm of Oxford cum Harvard and Stanford Professor, Niall Ferguson. I am prompted, however, to come to his defense in the face of a viciously false allegation of white supremacism by a Pankaj Mishra, a cousin-in-law to the pseudo-Conservative and imperialist war criminal British Prime Minister, David Cameron.
Mishra's contemptible smear was
published by the London Review of Books under the guise of a review of Ferguson's book,
Civilization: The West and the Rest.
Mishra is a skilled exponent of defamation by insinuation.
