Thousands of serious activists are giving thought to all questions related to the development of an anti-war movement that can strike even more powerful blows against this latest round of imperialist wars. This article represents an effort to directly confront the most serious questions related to the development of the anti-war movement.

While listening to the members of the Brea Anti-War group yesterday. I overheard the name "Ben Seatle" several times.

Looks like Socialism is about to attempt use the Anti-War movement to mutate into a new form of the disease.

The college wanna-be "activists" are gobbling up this guys B.S. - hook, line, and sinker.

Environments conducive to the rise of terrorism include international and national environments, as well as subnational ones such as universities, where many terrorists first become familiar with Marxist-Leninist ideology or other revolutionary ideas and get involved with radical groups. Russell and Miller identify universities as the major recruiting ground for terrorists...

The physiological approach to terrorism suggests that the role of the media in promoting the spread of terrorism cannot be ignored in any discussion of the causes of terrorism...

Moreover, in Guttman's analysis, the terrorist requires a liberal rather than a right-wing audience for success. Liberals make the terrorist respectable by accepting the ideology that the terrorist alleges informs his or her acts. The terrorist also requires liberal control of the media for the transmission of his or her ideology...

It's been going on for a while now. Did you see alot of "Jobs Now" signs? Thats the WWP trying to get their agenda off the ground.Also don't forget all of that inner-city busing to get bodies to the protest either.

Disagree with the war all they--or I want--after the decision is made, get behind it. What these folks are talking about is pure treason.

The true wealth and beauty of our fine world will only be visible when the filth and corruption of capitalism is removed. Communism is the torch by which we will be led to freedom- freedom to live and enjoy nature without the scum of a corrupt society obscuring our view.

OMG .. are they for real?

>>OMG .. are they for real?

Apparently so.

This gives me a sick feeling - like if you lean up against a beam in your atic - and it crumbles away because it's infested with termites.

Take care of your children and Teach Them! You can not depend upon the educational system to do it for you.

What, are they shooting for over 1% of the US population?

Yech.....scary stuff.

More proff that the Stalinists are far from dead. Some like me and David Horowitz evolve into conservatives. Other metamorph into dangeorus delusional proto theorists of BS.

I only glanced at the site, but it looks like the same old, same old.

Back in the day, we used to say it took 5% to accept an idea before it became embedded in society and a de facto truth.
That was over 40 years ago and they haven't won yet.

The rank-&-file repeat whatever they hear. This, of course, is why schools are the ideal recruiting ground and why, inside schools, any dissent is demeaned as *conservative rhetoric*. Like any cult, outside influences must be absent for the inculcation to take effect.

OTOH, just from reading FReepers' posts, there are a lot of dissenters of college and even high school age right now. I do not remember that from the 60s/70s. It is a source of hope. I also read a lot of articles and posts from young parents who fully engage in their childrens' education. That is another source of hope.

Free Republic is the best source of hope. It is a terrific source of anti-liberal information (truth) as well as a place to network. It is the peer pressure within the isolated atmosphere of high schools and universities that allows these creeps to inculcate with ease. They can rely on the kids to keep each other in line. Here, they can gain the knowledge & confidence to resist.

The young statists may know this Ben Seattle, but if you query them, I haven't met one who ever heard of Gramsci. They have no idea they are being recruited or inculcated. They really think they have *learned* valuable true information.

This sort of stuff really should be passed on to any LEO with which one may have contacts. Especially now that they are planning to increase the severity of their *resistance*.

These people are not patriots or liberals. They are subversives...extremists that espouse ideas that are not better than the current system. They should be treated that way. I hope the FBI is watching.
