.........."The title of Hillary’s thesis was “There Is Only the Fight: An Analysis of the Alinsky Model.” In this title she had singled out the single most important Alinsky contribution to the radical cause - his embrace of political nihilism. An SDS radical once wrote, “The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution.”

In other words the cause - whether inner city blacks or women - is never the real cause, but only an occasion to advance the real cause which is the accumulation of power to make the revolution. That was the all consuming focus of Alinsky and his radicals.

Guided by Alinsky principles, post-Communist radicals are not idealists but Machiavellians. Their focus is on means rather than ends, and therefore they are not bound by organizational orthodoxies in the way their admired Marxist forebears were. Within the framework of their revolutionary agenda, they are flexible and opportunistic and will say anything (and pretend to be anything) to get what they want, which is resources and power."....... 2009 Barack Obama's Rules for Revolution: The Alinsky Model by David Horowitz

The issue is never the issue...here, you see evil giving itself PERMISSION to lie (it’s all for the “cause” doncha know) -

The darkness of heart required to embrace such evil - to “internalize” it - can only be of the devil (the book’s ‘dedication’)...

Is it any wonder that killing babies is their sacrament - or that everything they touch is destroyed?
God help us.
