| Cooper says the Baby Drive site is a one-woman operation, but he declined to identify her. When I ask how he knows her identity, he says that part of the center's work is to monitor the whole range of such movements around the world. The Wiesenthal Center is an international Jewish human rights organization. The Baby Drive, Cooper says, "hearkens back to the Nazi ideology of the 1930s. It's all a rip-off or an update of the Nazi mind-set and policies where a woman was encouraged to have as many children as possible for the state to preserve the Aryan race." Cooper isn't of a mind to see much heart-tugging about the Aryan Baby Drive. "It's not a laughing matter," he says. "They're not a mass movement, but there are thousands of people in the U.S. and elsewhere who really do see life through that prism. Now they're raising their children in a certain way, making sure they don't go to certain kinds of movies and isolating themselves in the most diverse ethnic pot [in Southern California], trying to keep themselves pure." And, at least with their babies, well-clothed. |
