Reminds me of that SNL skit with Will Ferrell as the cheerleader singing the song:
'bobby fisher, where is he, i don't know, i don't know'

I knew the guy was ecentric but until I read about what his views on jews and 9-11 were I didn't know he was pretty much a total whack job.

Most genius's are whack jobs. Im guessing he hated his mother, which is his reason for hating Jewish people (as unfounded as that is.) As far as 9/11, he's probably a bit bitter not being able to return home because of a single chess match.

reeks of paranoid skitzo... blind people have trouble with their sight, skitzos have trouble with their reality... he hates almost everyone he's had a close relationship with... the people who took him in, laywers working to help him... everyone (and if he is a PS, that's actually a fairly normal occurance, along with the spy crap)...
he was a master chess player, because he played 18 hours everyday besides being smart, but like many single minded people, he has no social sense and i doubt any real empathy or feelings of self worth, hence the arrogance, hate speech, and conspiracies... sad. |
