But it's rare that the left exposes the radical left.

Not true. The Left has been exposing the Stalinist Left much this past year. Marc Cooper of the L.A. Weekly exposed ANSWER last year. And this past January, NPR ran several shows exposing the Stalinist Left's role in the peace movement.

The patriotic, pro-American peace movement is working hard to expose its bad apples -- as are the many anti-foreign interventionist libertarians in the movement. See the lp.org sign at: New York Peace Protest.

ANSWER is a godsend to the foreign intervensionist globalists. It creates the illusion that ANSWER = the peace movement, which isn't true.

From your website:

"The peace movement has been accused of being a front for, or dupes of, the Workers World Party/ANSWER coalition. And yes, ANSWER buttons and signs were evident -- but WWP organizers were aggressively selling peace/ANSWER buttons (at $1 each), so it's a safe guess that many protesters arrived empty-handed, and took whatever they were given or could buy, with little thought as to any agenda other than preventing an Iraqi war."

"Yes, the WWP may have done much organizing for the protest, but they neither owned nor controlled it. From the street, it appeared to be the protesters who did. And rather than the Stalinist left, the rank and file marchers appeared to be a cross section of America. Both sexes and every age demo was well represented, from toddler to senior. One man carried a sign promoting the Libertarian Party."

You know what a "front group" does? It moves in the background and forments dissent and moves people in certain directions. Fifth Column.

A.N.S.W.E.R.--Act Now to Stop War & End Racism
Front group for WWP, does not want peace – it wants its heroes to continue threatening peace. It wants victory – victory for Saddam, so he can murder his own people; victory for Kim Jong-il, so he can starve his own people; victory for Milosevic, so his gangsters can continue to benefit from the riches they stole in Serbia, and placed in offshore banks in Cyprus, while their thugs cut the throats of Muslim grandmothers in Bosnia-Hercegovina and assassinated Albanian infants in Kosovo.

Workers World Party (WWP), founded by a miserable, obscure little man named Sam Ballan, based in Buffalo, New York. He was a long-time member of the main Trotskyist group in America – the Socialist Workers’ Party, of which James Burnham was a founder. In the mid-50s, he began to crave a party of his own. He used the political alias “Marcy,” presumably a combination of “Marx” and “Trotsky,” though his heritage more justifies it being seen as a neologism coined from “massacre” and “messy.” WWP was therefore known as “Marcyites.” Messy Marcy began by hailing the suppression of the people of Hungary by the Russians in 1956 – at a time when other leftists, including many Moscow-lining Stalinists, recoiled in horror at the bloodshed in Budapest. He went on to support the Chinese in their brutal attack on Tibet in 1959. WWF backers include North Korea, Saddamite Iraq, and the Yugoslavia of Slobodan Milosevic, Communist butcher of the Balkan Muslims.

You are certainly not doing this by calling ANSWER a "godsend".
