COnducting a Demonstration anywhere near the NYT is a high risk situation ~ at any moment one of their AlQaida or Hamas allies is liable to lurch out the front door into the midst of the crowd, where she will flip the switch on her suicide belt

You Blue State (or district) FReepers have all the fun! ;)

Whether or not the Times gets indicted for treason, whoever gave them their info is a criminal and the Times's people who know who he is should do hard time until they sing like canaries.

The conceit that journalists are entitled to protect sources is absurd. People who purposely leak classified information have no legitimate shield from the law. And journalists have no more right to shield them than you or I would have.

Be sure to call 800-NYTIMES and cancel your subscription. You don't actually have to have a subscription in order to call an cancel it. Calling and going through the process, however, is a waste of their time and money.

Among his remarks, he said, "We're out here today to make a point not only to the New York Times, but also to the Federal government. We are in a real war; but it's not just being waged in Afghanistan and Iraq -- it's also being fought on the home front."

There is a book,:

Unholy Alliance : Radical Islam and the American Left (Hardcover)

And a review:

Communism is dead. Long live Islam!, September 30, 2004

Reviewer:

Kevin Beckman (Sacramento, CA) - See all my reviews

It sounds absurd: why would Leftists make common cause with a religion that is diametrically opposed to everything the Left stands for? David Horowitz explains that it is really quite logical given the Left's first principle: America is evil and anything or anyone opposed to America is good.

Part I of the book is a brief history of 9/11 through the end of major combat operations in Iraq, and the Left's behavior during this time. Horowitz includes the reaction of Katha Pollitt of The Nation magazine: "The flag stands for vengeance, and jingoism, and war." Anthropology Professor Nicholas De Genova of Columbia University said he hoped for "a million Mogadishus." His colleagues objected, not to the despicable sentiment, but because of the bad publicity it brought their "teach-in." Our tax dollars at work!

Part II is the heart of the book: a history of the American and international Left. Horowitz calls them Neo-Communists or Neocoms. The Neocoms of old believed in the Soviet Union the way religious people believe in God. Those who spied for the USSR didn't see themselves as traitors to their country, but rather loyalists to humanity and an ideal of America that's never existed. When the Soviet Union fell, a few of them stopped for some introspection but most pressed on as if nothing happened. Communist historian Eric Hobsbawm put it nicely: "Without the Revolution, my life and my work are meaningless."

Now that they no longer have to defend an indefensible regime, modern Neocoms are simply nihilists. They know what they oppose but they have no plans for the aftermath of the revolution which they still believe will happen. They don't know what they want, but they know what they hate: the United States, capitalism personified.

So why are they allying with radical Islam? Horowitz says that the Neocoms still believe in Marx's dictum that "religion is the opiate of the masses." Once private property is abolished, the need for religion will vanish, and Islamic radicals will stop being Islamic and radical. The only thing standing in the way is the United States.

Sound insane? It is. They are. I highly recommend this book. Horowitz makes the insanity understandable.

Great report on a fab Freep of the treasonous NYTimes, Albion. I'm sorry that I missed it.

Pinging the DC Chapter...

[maica]

Mark Steyn on Hugh Hewitt's show tonight raised the question:

Where are the NYT investigative journalists going after Osama's secrets, and Al Queda's operation procedures?

[The Spirit Of Allegiance]

Directly challenging the reporters in the necessity of self-restraint, Kincaid continued, "What's going to happen next time? Are you going to be jumping out a window? Are you going to be one of those incinerated?"

Indeed what goes around, can come around, God forbid, amen.

Kincaid continued, "What's going to happen next time? Are you going to be jumping out a window? Are you going to be one of those incinerated?" At this, the tension level rose directly. Reporters wanted to know whether Taylor's and Kincaid's call to prosecute also carried an expectation of the traditional legal penalty for treason, a death sentence. Taylor pointed to the precedent of the Rosenberg case during the last century. Kincaid rejoined, "The question at this point is not about the death penalty, but to ask, "Why are these publishers risking the lives of other Americans?

Great post. Thanks for sharing.
