The Sick Alliance between the Left and Muslim Extremists
RCP ^ | 15 Oct 2023 | Charles Lipson

Posted on 10/22/2023 3:52:37 PM PDT by Rummyfan

The virulent anti-Israel protests across America and Europe throw a glaring light on the bizarre alliance between left-wing activists and militant Muslims. That odd combination has been the bedrock of political activism at universities and in the streets for years. It began in universities, where it now dominates political discourse, threatens Jewish students, and intimidates anyone brave enough to voice their dissent. We can now see how it has spread far beyond the campus.

What makes the alliance so strange are the deep-seated differences between leftists and Muslim fundamentalists over core beliefs.

The left supports women’s rights and full equality in the workplace and public sphere. Militant Muslims oppose them.

The left supports gay rights and gay marriage. Militant Muslims toss gays off buildings. None would dare hold a public march in Pakistan, Iran, or Saudi Arabia.

It comes down to one thing, IMHO....The Enemy of My Enemy is My Friend.

The Orange Man and the people that support him are the Enemy of both.

They are an alliance of convenience against what both hate: Freedom and the people who embrace it.

You think the elites care what the igigi, their foot soldiers and cannon fodder, believe?

It was the One True God who fashioned man in his image, unlike the elites’ igigi.

They say one thing and believe another. They're deceivers, just like their spiritual father. They've always been on the side of "Palestine" instead of Israel because Palestinians are liars and murderers, like they are.

The Islamist world view and the Liberal world view are quite funamentally incompatible. Great Pain will occur when they both come to realize that — and they will: they must, eventually.

Beck outlined this over a decade ago.

From 2006:

The bestselling Unholy Alliance-now in paperback! Former Leftist radical David Horowitz blows the lid off the dangerous liaison between U.S. liberals and Islamic radicals. With America's battle against the disastrous force of terrorism at hand, Horowitz takes us behind the curtain of the unholy alliance between liberals and the enemy-a force with malevolent intentions, and one that Americans can no longer ignore.

What a world when we see Black Lives Matter, neo-nazis, Commie Socialists and Queers for Palestine all walking in lockstep in support of Hamas.

The replies here capture pieces of the puzzle. It can’t be that homosexual rights etc groups are seriously trying to push change within those countries who oppress and kill guys. There’s no obvious sign of that. Virtue signaling to each other here instead? Taking perverse fun in trying NH g to irritate those here who oppose the Hamas side and believe in tolerating but not celebrating homosexuality? Feigning relevance by inserting themselves into headline news items?

They both detest anything rooted in Judeo-Christian beliefs and morality.

Both these groups would use the devil to achieve their goals. They believe that they can deal with the other group later. Buy popcorn.

The Muslim Brotherhood, the founding modern mohammedan terror organization, was funded, trained and armed by the USSR.

Fellow travelers.
