Hows that he is Jewish. I am sure in their world they would let him live. Does he realise what kind of an asshole he is?

Living example of what is discussed in this book.

*****************************************

A Must Read:

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

**************************************

Vastly Illuminating, September 25, 2004

Reviewer:

Kat Bakhu (Albuquerque, NM United States) - See all my reviews

I had long wondered why people on the Left had the propensity to speak more positively about people who would slit their throats than they do about their own country, which affords them more freedom and opportunity than anywhere else. David Horowitz has answered that question thoroughly and convincingly in his Unholy Alliance. Where I felt bewildered and confused, I now feel crystal clear. Unholy Alliance is such a great book.

It begins with the leftist movements at the beginning of the 20th Century, and works its way up to the present day, exploring the anti-American attitude of these movements in detail. Horowitz shows that the enemies of the US back then are largely the same group today, operating under the same misperceptions, making the same mistakes, and pursuing the same impossible utopia.

Individual chapters are included on the Patriot Act (I was persuaded that it is a GOOD thing); the democratic flip-flop on Iraq once G.W. Bush implemented what they agreed with Clinton needed to be done; the driving components of the current anti-war movement; as well as chapters on individual personalities who are major spokespeople of the Left. Horowitz covers a lot of ground, and he covers it concisely and clearly. Unholy Alliance is richly informative without ever being boring or plodding.

This book is so illuminating that I simply cannot do justice to it here. I love people who reason so clearly that they help me get my own reasoning clear. Horowitz is just that type of person! In the terrain of mindless clichés (no-blood-for-oil, etc.), he is a breath of real fresh air.

Hugh took him apart. Stein sounded like a stammering idiot. It's amazing somebody as inarticulate, ill-informed, and unprepared as Stein is allowed to write for any major publication. He couldn't win a Junior High debate.

Doogle,

I have the same feeling. I wrote the little bastard an email explaining what this veteran {and father of a current officer} thinks about his hissy fit. I kept it clean and without threats, but he better never give me the opportunity.

[ThePoliticalDookie]

I appreciate the candor, as despicable as find it, because it illuminates an unspoken theme among core lib/dems and exposes the ivory tower media perspective that is all too prevalent.

[REDWOOD99]

Should've heard Hugh Hewitt rip this punk up today.

[wardaddy]

No kidding.

I bet Purim with Al Quaeda would be a blast...literally.

They could have him do the Kalashnikov dance to amuse them.

Naivete is fatal.....this chump needs a death camp tour.

I take back my last post after listening to Hugh Hewitt's interview with him

This guy is a Complete idiot ... he couldn't remember anyone's names ??

[MonicaG]

I agree. Hugh waxed this LaSlimes guy just by letting him respond to a few simple questions. The guy was even more of an ignoramus during the live interview, very much along the lines of Letterman having to admit he based his opinions little, if any, research.

Hugh outclassed this guy, and even gave him a reading assignment, in case he should want to educate himself a bit before showcasing his ignorance in future columns.

I tried to read the transcript of Hugh's interview, but this idiot boy was just not worth listening to. That's good, we are truly near the bottom of the barrel now, the point where businesses with staff like this actually start to close.

Thanks, sure that will garner Joel a few notes of appreciation and support.

"to avoid foreign conflicts"

This hasn't and never will never work, because al Qaeda didn't avoid us on September 11, 2001. It's stupid to maintain we can ignore the rest of the world in the age of intercontinental, 1. travel, and 2. ballistic missiles. This guy is living in the eighteenth century.

The net effect of all these a*hole fifth columnists at LA Times is summed up in the 5-year stock chart of the parent company, Tribune:
