Fascinating Analysis of Leftist Goals, August 13, 2006

Reviewer: N. Sincerity - See all my reviews

A former 1960s radical, Horowitz is well-acquainted with the Leftist mindset. In this book, he strives to explain the modern alliance between left wing progressivists and radical Islamofascists. He argues that this alliance is based on a common desire to destroy Western capitalism. Leftist sympathy with Islamofascist ideas makes no sense from an intellectual point of view, given that countries ruled by radical Islamists are among the most racist, sexist, theocratic states in the world today. However, Leftists have recognized that they can benefit politically from destructive terrorist attacks on the Western world. A West under attack can be made to turn on its leaders in fear and desperation (as they did in Spain after the Madrid train bombings). Only once people reject current government structures can the Left execute its anti-capitalist revolution and build a new reality that mirrors the Leftist view of utopia.

The complete and utter idealogical hypocrisy of the Islamofascist-Leftist alliance is distressing, but as Horowitz reminds us,

Leftists radicals truly believe the ends justify the means.

"Is this true? Awesome."

Yeah, bud. CAIR is a 501(c)(3) and their books are public record (if they are indeed valid). When the last year's filing went public a few other writers picked up on it as well:

CAIR by the numbers

Now we just need the Feds to wake up and quit treating them like a valid organization.

Surprise, surprise!

When the book budget opens up, I will read that one. I’ve added it to my list and will check half.com to see what I can get it for. Thanks.

The good news: Their calculus has failed. There is no compelling reason for American Muslims to flock to their attempt to engineer an atmosphere of victimization.

The bad news: They or some other Islamist organization will adjust fire which probably means terrorist attacks inside the United States. That's been the Islamist pattern since 1928, which abuses their own people to further their agenda. They will launch attacks, force a backlash, create fear amongst the American Muslim population driving them to gravitate to Islamist organizations for comfort. Then the never ending cycle begins. Be prepared and let's not fall victim to their cycle of insanity.

I hope the feds are on to them... but not that confident they are. Too many linguine spin-ed liberals entrenched in our government.

"...So, who gives more - Soros or the House of Saud?..."

"...Names, we want names!..."

I'd bet on the Saudis. They've been funding terrorism through surrogates for many many years.

When Iran is knocked out of the picture, and Syria gets slapped around, the Saudis are gonna have to find a new radical-bunch to back.

If the Saudis are ever exposed as the primary bankers for the islamoterrorists, 'islam' would be in serious hurt, and the Saudi family would be trying to buy Switzerland ................... FRegards

Thanks for the ping!

Interesting. Thanks for the PING.

I’d like to see Ibrahaim Hooper on a soup line.

[FormerLib]

Sounds like the Episcopal Church.

Except the gays in CAIR will never be "out."

[agrace]

Hmm, thanks for the perspective. That makes entirely too much sense.

[OKSooner]

"This would make it apparent to me that not all Muslims are kill crazy terrorists. "

No, they're not, but IN MY EXPERIENCE all muslims are sympathetic to the kill crazy terrorists.

Even the mainstream, Americanized ones who speak perfect english and have Master's Degrees and feed you cabbage rolls and tabouli. Get the truth out of them, and they're on the side of the terrorists.

In my experience, mind you.

[Grampa Dave]

If America is ever attacked again by home grown or foriegn Islamofascist Terrorists, CAIR and the ACLU might be very ripe for some heavy damages from civil court cases.

[sheik yerbouty]

This is a tactical move on their part.
