Fascinating Analysis of Leftist Goals, August 13, 2006
Reviewer: N. Sincerity - See all my reviews
A former 1960s radical, Horowitz is well-acquainted with the Leftist mindset. In this book, he strives to explain the modern alliance between left wing progressivists and radical Islamofascists. He argues that this alliance is based on a common desire to destroy Western capitalism. Leftist sympathy with Islamofascist ideas makes no sense from an intellectual point of view, given that countries ruled by radical Islamists are among the most racist, sexist, theocratic states in the world today. However, Leftists have recognized that they can benefit politically from destructive terrorist attacks on the Western world. A West under attack can be made to turn on its leaders in fear and desperation (as they did in Spain after the Madrid train bombings). Only once people reject current government structures can the Left execute its anti-capitalist revolution and build a new reality that mirrors the Leftist view of utopia. The complete and utter idealogical hypocrisy of the Islamofascist-Leftist alliance is distressing, but as Horowitz reminds us, Leftists radicals truly believe the ends justify the means.

"I do not know how to fight for my freedom, I only know how to enjoy it," said a Frenchman recently. He was, at least, honest.
spot on.
Steyn / Sowell '08!
I always thought someday when I retired, I would visit some of the countries of my forefathers. I am to the point now where I never care to see them. I was going to visit Canada for the first time ever on September 11, 2001, but we never made that trip, either.
Carthage...Carthage, now where have I seen that before?

Another great Sowell for the for the file ...
bumping for later...
Wow! I thought the opposite was going on. I wonder if it's feasible for American conservatives to consider living there?
bttt
One day, these Liberals, these Europeans, are going to wake up and find that Muslims are actively invading and pillaging Western Europe, and they will expect us to bail them out .
But will America be around in twenty years,
or will we go the way of the Soviet Union ?
