WASHINGTON - It seems counter-intuitive that ultra-leftists would find common ground with radical Islamists - the kind of people who automatically sentence homosexuals to death.
The Washington DC-based think tank Center for Security Policy (CSP) is highlighting why those forces that seem so far apart can come together and why some liberals cover up or excuse the violent acts of these jihadists.
What’s strange is these leftists will do it despite the fact that history shows that once radical Islamists gain power, they would likely wipe out their Leftist collaborators - it happened in revolutionary Iran.
“They’re the first to get their throats slit,” said Matthew Vadum at a CSP panel discussion based around his new book “Team Jihad: How Sharia Supremacists Collaborate with Leftists."
Also on the panel was Gregory Angelo, head of the largest GOP gay organization, who pointed out how some Muslims routinely slaughter homosexuals in distant countries overseas
"Where you have ISIS throwing people off of roofs. Where in Iran you are not just imprisoned, but executed for being gay or just suspected of being gay,” stated the leader of the Log Cabin Republicans.
But left-leaning gays won’t call these Muslims out on it, even though ISIS and others would kill them if given the chance. Angelo can’t believe some gays won’t condemn such murderous forces.
“Especially those who seek to eradicate LGBT individuals from the face of the earth,” he said.
"Medieval Totalitarian Butchers"
Vadum added, “Maybe the Left shouldn’t be attaching itself to these medieval totalitarian butchers who will kill them once they assume power."
Even in America, many refused at first to accept an ISIS wanna-be who killed 49 people at Orlando's Pulse nightclub.
“What else could it be when somebody goes into a gay nightclub and starts shooting people at random?” Vadum asked. "I’m guessing it wasn’t Methodists or Amishmen."
Angelo emphasized, “The shooter actually told police, ‘I’m an agent of Islamic State, Allahu Akbar!'”
And yet some on the left blamed the anti-gay hatred of Republican lawmakers or evangelical Christians for leading to such a bloody massacre. Anything but call out and condemn Islamic jihadis.
Refusing to See the Actual Threat
Angelo labelled it, “A liberal tack that sees everything but the actual threat that’s in front of it, and not only that, but seeks to blame everything except for what is truly responsible, and that is radical Islam."
In Vadum’s “Team Jihad,” he suggests the radical Left buddies up with Islamists because “they both have an authoritarian, totalitarian mindset,” and share a common goal: wiping out western democracies’ open form of government.
To radical leftists, Sharia supremacists are people who want to, as Vadum put it, “undermine the United States and western civilization.”
And to Frank Gaffney, CSP head, that means for the leftists, “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
At this panel discussion, Gaffney pointed out it's often the liberal nations who get the worst attacks are the most accommodating and excusing of Islamists’ anti-Western ways.
Sweden's Dozens of "No-Go" Zones
Gaffney cites Sweden, and argued it has been somewhat ripped asunder, or as he put it, “At the edge of or actually in a civil war. With the primarily transplanted populations from the Middle East now taking over something like 61 so-called no-go zones in the country."
Vadum added, “They’re really drinking the Koolaid in Sweden, though I guess in this case it’d be the glogg."
Gaffney spoke of, “Police officers under assault if they dare to go in there and many of them resigning rather than put up with the dangers associated with it. And increasingly parts of the country are simply being lost.”
But many leaning left in the U.S. will ridicule folks like the American terrorism expert who Vadum pointed out recently stating, “There are no-go zones in Britain, which there are obviously in the United Kingdom, especially in London. Or as some people call it, Londonistan."
Europe's "Nothing-to-See-Here" Culture
Islam means “submission,” and these panelists suggested submitting is what many left-leaning groups and even whole nations are doing, especially in Europe.
Angelo bemoaned, “The 'nothing-to-see-here' culture that you’re seeing pervading all of Europe. I have lost count, stopped counting, the number of times where Islamists have attacked people in the public square.”
He listed such diverse horrors as the terrorist attacks at the Ariana Grande concert in Manchester and Paris’ Bataclan concert hall and the Belgian airport bombing and the mowing down of innocents by Islamist terrorists in Nice, France and on bridges in London.
But many leaders are afraid to fight back or even name the threat for fear of being labelled “Islamaphobic.”
These are in the kind of countries that pass laws so that, as Vadum put it, “It would be hate speech to criticize Islam there.”
Choked-Off Speech "Literally Dangerous"
“We are not discussing in the public square what is driving these attacks,” Angelo complained, "but we are also not fighting back against it because we can’t: people are afraid to talk about this. Politicians are afraid."
He concluded, "Even those who would speak out against it feel that they cannot because they would automatically be marginalized. It’s not only chilling. But it is literally dangerous. We are talking life and death hanging in the balance as a result of this.”
Congressional Record--Appendix, pp. A34-A35 January 10, 1963
Current Communist Goals [1963]:
1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.
2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.
3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.
4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.
6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.
7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.
8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev's promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.
9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.
10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.
11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.)
12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.
13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.
14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.
15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
18. Gain control of all student newspapers.
19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.
20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions.
21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.
22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms."
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art."
24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a "religious crutch."
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state."
29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man."
31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the "big picture." Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.
32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture--education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.
36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.
37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business.
38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat].
39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.
42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use ["]united force["] to solve economic, political or social problems.
43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.
44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.
45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction [over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction] over nations and individuals alike.
JOOC, do you believe Golitsyn?
Nothing new here. The left has always aligned themselves with the enemies of America.
Just watch a couple Brigitte Gabriel videos and you’ll be fully educated on Islam’s history.
The sonsabitches are notted up like two dogs in heat.
Well not exactly. Islam is very conservative in their own right. They advocate killing queers where the radical liberal left wants every one to become a queer. Many Hollywood celebrities would be put to death under Islamic law and under the Liberal agenda the more decadent and perverse the better.

The one thing that unites all these various groups, the antifa, the muzz slimes, the commies, the fags...is Christianity.
The fact that Christ, and His followers are considered enemy number one by these folks is all you need to know about who, or what, we are really up against.
The idea that Christians would be the subject of persecution on a global basis seemed ridiculous 30 years ago, and so too the words in Revelation at the time. Now? The improbable is looking inevitable.
Leftist HATE overrides everything! So does Muslim HATE. They have a great deal in common.
The headline is so incredibly stupid, I find myself unable to stomach reading it.
There is no possible “finding” to be had.
Marxism has been publishing plans to ally with Islam to eradicate Judeo-Christian civilization for a century. Materials covering this have been part of the professional reading lists for the various branches of the military since at least the fifties. So it isn’t like this is obscure in any way.
Find?
Find a writer who can research the topic before publishing.
“ultra-leftists would find common ground with radical Islamists - the kind of people who automatically sentence homosexuals to death.”......
If that be the case, California and in particular the Hollywood crowd had better go into hiding or heads are going to roll.
Dennis Prager wrote about this in his 2012 book “Still the Best Hope”. Liberals ally with Muslims to tear down the Judeo-Christian society they’ve been fighting for a century, on the assumption Muslims will convert to liberal secularism as many Christians and Jews have.
They choose to ignore how incompatible and contrary to their views Islam is due to Islam’s perceived ignorant victim status, which coincidentally allows liberals to say the solution is love and education.

That is a scary list given what’s already happened.
“How the radical left and radical Islam find common ground.”
They are 6 of one and a half dozen of the other. Or, they are one in the same, both hate America and Americans who love this country.

It’s not counter-intuitive at all. The Left despises “rednecks.” It will twist itself into a pretzel to take opposite positions on all subjects, even if this means endorsing scientific materialism, fundamentalist islam, and the Australian aboriginal “dream time” simultaneously.
The same goes for the Commies. Other than China under Mao and "Democratic Kampuchea," every Communist country that has ever existed has been super socially conservative, super patriotic (to the "socialist motherland"), and super militarist. There are no hippies in any Communist country. Yet the hippies still support them.
Dang, I thought I got her in there, but I did forget Fakeahauntus. She’s the faker who keeps on haunting us.
