There was a booklet put out maybe about 3 years ago by David Horowitz and FrontPage Magazine titled, "who is behind the Anti-War Left" or something approximately like that.

It is of a piece with what you provided. Thanks for posting your article. 'Pod

No one has expressed this truth better than bin Laden himself when he said: The interests of Muslims and the interests of the socialists coincide in the war against the crusaders.

The money line.

Either you are with us or against us in the War on Terrorism and the Dems are slowly but surely drifting to the side of the terrorists. It is their Socialist, Anti-Capitalist and Anti-American roots that draw them there. They cannot be trusted with the security of this country.

I followed his description and documentation of the antiWar protestors as being far more than they are being characterized in the media.

For sure these people are NOT simple peace protestors. I wish the media would get that straight. To call them peace protesters is grossly misrepresenting the obvious truth, especially for anyone who has FReeped/attending one of their rallys. They are angry subversives seeking the downfall of America as we know it!

But the author then seemed to go on and on once he started to pin the blame on 9/11. After he started pinpointing 9/11 as the genesis of all our troubles I kinda lost interest in his point.

According to Drudge last night, the good news is that they called for massive rallies this weekend, and pratically noone showed up. And, Cindy Sheehan got herself arrestd recently in NYC before an audience of 20 people.

When you boil it down, it always comes back to Marxism... socialism.

Domestic treason is a greater danger to this country than any foreign terrorists ever spawned.

Kinda preaching to the choir here at FR, however the message needs repeating.

I just wish the above article were made into a 5 minute major news segment on CBSNBCABCCNNPBS. I'm not holding my breath.

Never trust an opponent that does not have an alternative plan for the issue at hand.

The Democrats, dedicated liberals, mainstream media and political commentators all offer only criticism of the current state of affairs.

Hence, their agenda must be suspect.

No one should be deceived about their real objective, which is not peace, but the protection of those who have the ability to destabilize the United States by terrorist subversion. By organizing large-scale protests, they try to weaken the government’s resolve to defend the system they themselves seek to undermine. The peace crusade – backed by nearly all of this country’s radical groups – is nothing more than a deliberate attempt to pursue their anti-American agenda under a veil of moral righteousness.

I've been shouting this from the rooftops for years. We need to stop calling them 'peaceniks', 'peace protesters' and the like. They have nothing to do with 'peace', except where it coincides with American capitulation.
