No, Zinn is worse than an enemy. Having served to to defend America, but to defend socialism. His entire professional career has been an attempt to subvert the very values for which America stands. He is a traitor, every bit as much as X42.

You must understand that many communists served in WWII because the Soviet Union was attacked -- before the Hitler Stalin Pact of 1939 the Communists opposed Hilter, from the Pact through June 1941, they opposed War against Hitler -- their influence being especially baneful in France, but also in the US -- and after Hitler was attacked, they supported the War against Fascism to save the Soviet Union.

I understand your point of view but find it oversimplified. A traitor is not a traitor because he/ she has a different point of view.
