“Karl Hess called ISIL the place where the intellectuals and activists of the libertarian movement met, and myriad new libertarian projects were catalyzed by ISIL, from publishing and distributing libertarian books in countries where libertarianism had never been heard of before, to helping newly-freed countries write their new constitutions. While Vince and I came to disagree about the Iraq War, his opposition to it didn’t stop him from meeting with the Iraqis who were writing their new constitution when he found out that they were doing so at the same hotel in Germany where he was having an ISIL conference. So, in addition to running the conference, he found the time to meet with them to give them the best advice he possibly could about how to make the new Iraq as peaceful, prosperous, and free as possible. Vince knew that liberty was too important not to seize every possible opportunity to promote it.” (07/08)
