It’s difficult to imagine they are so blatantly antiAmerican!

See this :

Unholy Alliance: Radical Islam and the American Left

And a review:

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

By  Kat Bakhu (Albuquerque, NM United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Unholy Alliance: Radical Islam and the American Left (Hardcover)
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.

I agree. Bloodshed to preserve the fundamental tenets of Freedom and Liberty will happen in this nation within a couple of decades, IMO.

In the liberal mind everyone (except conservatives) are victims. This relieves guilt and allows them justify themselves by always seeking a “victim” to throw other people’s (usually) money at, or protest for. According to them, man is not sinful by nature, and thus spanking a child must be outlawed, and no war is ever just and necesary, and the one attacked is the victim - unless it is the Pentagon. Public decency laws ar unnecessary, and James Dobson is implicated in the murder of Matthew Shepherd. The real God of the Bible, and any moral authority that seeks to uphold His moral laws, are made to be malevolent.

This is nothing new, as it comes from the devil, the original perpetrator of the “liberal” victim mentality, who basically told Eve she was a victim of a conspiracy by God to keep something from her for no good reason (Gn. 3:1-5). And for which the devil recommended rebellion against God’s good and beneficial law.

He has had many apostles:

“The first requisite for the happiness of the people is the abolition of religion” (Karl Marx)

“I wish to avenge myself against the One who rules above.” (Karl Marx)

“The hellish vapors rise and fill the brain, till I go mad and my heart is utterly changed. See this sword? The prince of darkness sold it to me.” (Karl Marx)

“With disdain I will throw my gauntlet full in the fact of the world and see the collapse of this pygmy giant. Then will I wander god-like and victorious through the ruins of the world. And giving my words an active force, I will feel equal to the Creator.” (Karl Marx)

yesterday, on a street corner in La Jolla CA, about 20 UCSD college students "protested", parading around with "Impeach Bush" and "Worse than Hitler" signs.

Think of the factual ignorance that it takes to make these statement.

Which one the Hitler one? True, Bush is no Adolph. I heard a comedian once say that the only reason the real Hitler was able to sneak into power was because everyone was calling everyone else “Hitler” and no one noticed the real McCoy sneak in right under their noses.

Allowing evil to fester through appeasement is like giving a terrorist a nuclear bomb in mid town Manhattan.............

And, should the unthinkable ever happen, the first words out of their mouths will be, "See? We TOLD you to work harder at appeasing them!"

Actually the NAZI's and Fascists took inspiration from American eugenicists, and were great admirers of Americans like Margaret Sanger.

An earlier poster mentioned Jonah Goldberg's Liberal Fascism and I highly recommend it. He does a wonderful job of tying together much of the common DNA the European Fascists and NAZI's had with the American Progressive movement.

Yes, as soon as you mentioned it I knew you were right. Just orderd the book from Amazon and will give it a read.

I hope you enjoy it. It's been a pretty good year for books (I wish I could say the same for the politics). Liberal Fascism, and M. Stanton Evans's Blacklisted by History are both outstanding. There's a new one out by Daniel Flynn titled A Conservative History of the American Left which might be a good companion to Liberal Fascism. I should have it sometime this week.

“When the British let Hitler have a slice of Czechoslovakia, they were following their historical wisdom: avoid war. War produces results far more horrible than you expected. War is a bad investment. It is not glorious. Don’t give anyone an excuse to start one.”

What the author fails to grasp is that giving Hitler “a slice of Czechoslovakia: was the “excuse to start one.” A war that is. The Sudatenland was the key to Poland. This land was fortified and mountainous. It was the cork in the bottle which once removed Czechoslovakia became undefensible clearing the way for Hitler to take over the entire land. And, the loss of Czechoslovakia opened up the entire southern border of Poland making it’s defeat inevitable. No, the place to stop Hitler was in the Sudatenland.
