A Point in Time: The Search for Redemption in This Life and the Next, by David Horowitz (Regnery, 128 pp., $24.95) Death is every lifes inevitable denouement, but La Rochefoucauld told us that we can no more stare it in the face than we can stare at the sun. For the most part, we continue our daily round in a state of presumed immortality, and because we are so unfamiliar nowadays with death—it having been carefully put out of our sight by a host of professionals—we treat it as an unwarranted intrusion into our affairs rather than as an existential...

On November 19, Glenn Beck spoke at the David Horowitz Freedom Centers Restoration Weekend, where he addressed the current political situation in America, entrepreneurship, Occupy Wall Street, Israel and plenty more. I think the question how much trouble are we in Ill address. But the bigger question that I would like to address today is how much trouble is the Left in?, Beck said at the beginning of his speech. Because America is waking up. And theres only going to be one of us standing in the end. And I have every intention of it being us....

The best explanation of what is happening to America that I have yet seen. This doesnt go far enough and misses the role of the Communist Party USA, Democratic Socialists of America, Institute of Policy Studies, Demos etc, but very good none the less.

An overview of one man and his work. One of the more difficult problems a reviewer faces when dealing with a Horowitz book is how not to go on indefinitely, for each new release takes its place in a qualifying continuum compelling awareness of the whole. In other words, Horowitz has reached the point in time in his career when, as T.S. Eliot said about literature in general in his seminal essay “Tradition and the Individual Talent,” a new work involves the presence of the past. The existing monuments, Eliot writes, form an ideal order
which is modified by the introduction...

Princeton Professor Paul Krugman's ugly New York Times blog on the post 9/11 environment stopped short of accusing Pres. Bush of masterminding the attacks, but it did accuse Bush and his associates of cashing in on the tragedy, of being "fake heroes." If nothing else, the timing was hateful the very week when the former President was called on to emerge from relative obscurity to lend gravity to the memorial ceremonies. Krugman's hate cannot hold a candle to retired MIT professor, and radical anti-American, Noam Chomsky's article in Al Jazeera. Chomsky goes a step further to condemn the US...

According to official letters obtained by The Daily Caller, the gay conservative group GOProud and the ultraconservative John Birch Society wont be co-sponsoring the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in 2012. The decision was reached by a full vote of the American Conservative Unions board of directors. The ACU organizes and hosts CPAC each year. Representatives of GOProud and the John Birch Society were notified of the decision via mail Friday afternoon. The decision comes after GOProuds 2011 sponsorship sparked severe criticism from ACU board members, and prompted several social conservative groups to boycott the event. The controversy reached a...

I was born to Jehovah's Witness parents. When I became a teenager, I began to question that worldview. At the age of 17, I disassociated from the religion and went my own way. Over the years which have followed, my paradigm has developed according to newly acquired knowledge and experience. It continues to develop. I hope it never stops developing. Due to this background, I have a tremendous respect for the humility required to reconsider a publicly established position in light of new evidence. David Horowitz recently did so in a post denouncing nation-building. He expressed well-informed doubts regarding the...

Yesterday the Washington Times published an article on the continuing conflicts over foreign policy within the GOP and the Conservative Movement. NewsReal Blogs Editor-In-Chief David Horowitz was quoted: David Horowitz, a prominent member of the partys neoconservative wing, said his own views are changing and he has come around to Mr. Barbours position. I agree with Haley Barbour and am not surprised that he too has come to this conclusion, Mr. Horowitz said. Afghanistan is now our longest war, in large part because we are trying to remake a nation which has barely emerged from the seventh century, and in...

Listen. Do you hear the Obama lied/People died chants? Look. Can you see the throngs gathering on the National Mall to protest, No Blood for Oil? No? You cant? Well, neither can I. But lefties will protest a Democratic Presidents war as they did a Republican Presidents war, right? The Nobel Peace Prize winner-in-chiefs kinetic military action in Libya has unmoored liberals from their loudly professed convictions. He has sent conservatives back toor at least rethinkingtheirs. Specifically, the Right has reconsidered George W. Bush-era delusions regarding the universality of Western principles, their easy transplantation through nation-building democracy as an antidote...

When George Bush launched the military campaign to remove Saddam Hussein and enforce Security Council resolution 1441 and sixteen other Security Council resolutions he had defied, I was for it. I would be for it today. It was a necessary war and a just war. By toppling a monster who had defied international order and was an obvious threat, Bush did the right thing. When he named the campaign Operation Iraqi Freedom, I was also an enthusiast. It put the Democratic Party, which soon betrayed the war, and the political left, which instinctively supports Americas enemies, on the defensive. When...

On March 10, 2011, David Horowitz spoke at Brooklyn College . He was invited to speak in opposition to the annual Hate-a-Jew Week (aka Israel-Apartheid Week ) and due to the threats from the anarchists on-campus, we had to pass through security before we were permitted to enter the auditorium. The title of his presentation was The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict : Myths and Facts. The video that follows is the complete 60 minute presentation by Horowitz followed by the Q and A. This event was nearly aborted by a lack of support from the Jewish organizations and faculty at Brooklyn College...

Today I decided to return to my old stomping grounds at Brooklyn College in order to witness a lecture delivered by acclaimed polemicist, writer, political and human rights activist, and former leader of the new left, David Horowitz. Invited to speak by student leader Yosef Sobel, and sponsored by Professor Langbert-both of whom can be seen below-Mr. Horowitz delivered an impassioned, but unerringly rational, defense of freedom of speech, pluralism, and diversity, all values under attack in the Middle East and on American campuses-the primary theme of the evening. He began by noting the extreme impediments he-and the people who...

Bill Kristol is entitled to his optimism about democratic revolutions in the Islamic world. Perhaps the elections in Egypt will turn out better than those in Gaza where Hamas now rules a terrorist state; Iraq, which has instituted an Islamic Republic; Lebanon, where Hezbollah now rules a terrorist state; and Afghanistan, which is a kleptocracy wooing the terrorist theocracy in Iran. What he should not be doing as a conservative leader is demonizing Glenn Beck, who has done more to educate Americans about the unholy alliance between the secular left and the Islamic jihadists than anyone else. Kristol needs to...

[Below is a talk given by Stanley Kurtz at the Wednesday Morning Club on January 5, 2011.] David Horowitz: Its been 20 years with the Center trying to tell conservatives that these people are not liberals, that they are leftists and if their dreams are fulfilled they will destroy the United States, and very, very dangerous people. And while conservatives have given me support and given our Center support, they never quite got into their system what I think is the appropriate view of our opponents in these battles. Conservatives, as youve probably heard me say, are far too decent...

Click on the link: http://collive.com/show_news.rtx?id=8982 Eye opening... You will be chilled by the student's final answer. This is David Horowitz speaking at USC in San Diego . A student member of the MSA (Muslim Students Assoc) asks him a question. Listen to her response when he asks HER a question. And she has the "privilege" of attending school in our "free" country! God help us, because this is what our grandchildren's great-great-great, etc. etc. grandchildren will be facing.

Dr. Jamie Glazov and his Canadian publisher, Mantua Books, have just published a new kind of samizdat which is the Russian word for self-publications written by dissidents and passed from hand to hand. Self-publishing (by hand, on typewriters, on printing presses) was a 20th century way of dealing with Soviet government censorship. The Russian authors and readers who were found with such writing in their possession were routinely subjected to harsh imprisonment. Westerners, (and this includes Israel), do not live in a Soviet Gulag and are not subject to political censorship, but we do face a new kind of Orwellian...

Because the conservatives most likely to be employed in academia are of the neo variety, students may not get an accurate picture of conservatism or, for that matter, America. In fairness, because many neoconservatives are reconstructed leftists, they can counter the Campus Left in ways that more mild-mannered conservative Ph.D.s could or would. The neocons have waged a matchless intellectual war against the practices of Americas tenured radicals, C. Bradley Thompson writes in Neoconservatism: An Obituary for an Idea. They have been trenchant critics of the major ideas that have dominated Americas universities since the 1960s, such as nihilism, relativism,...

Where can you find oral sex, drug use, a fondness for big government social programs and addictions to multiple sexual partners? If you immediately thought of the Clinton Presidential Library, youre close, but its not the only library dedicated to debauchery. I have spent the last week reading books and magazines I randomly selected off the public library shelves. I literally closed my eyes and just started grabbing stuff, which makes what I found that much more disturbing. The results of this experiment are filled with leftist brainwashing, explicit sex, foul language, drug use, alcohol abuse, permissive parents, abusive parents...

I found this video, and the three listed in my first comment, at David Horowitz TV. I learned allot watching this video about how trying terrorist in civilian courts neuters our intelligence agencies and how woefully inadequate our civilian courts are in trying them. That's the reason why a terrorist recently was acquitted of almost 250 charges of murder and only a peripheral charge stuck. You'll learn what harm the Obama administration is really causing our country. It's almost as if he does not want us to win the so called war on terrorism.

Radical libertarians insist Glenn Beck is a big government neo-con socialist statist (no decent libertarian would associate themselves with former communist-turned conservative David Horowitz, who exposes libertarian radicalism for the leftism it is), because he considers America the greatest nation on earth. Beck has the gall to list all the great things America has achieved. Such traitorous rhetoric and affiliations does not sit well with radical libertarians. After all, America is a colonizing, nation-grabbing, states rights espousing thief. America should exist without any formal central government, military or police, and Glenn Beck should demand this! Libertarians are none too happy...

Conservative activist and best-selling author David Horowitz tells Newsmax that the Democratic Party has been seized by a religious cult of leftists and will go the way of the 19th-century Whig Party disappearing from the political scene. He also declares that giving terrorist suspects the rights of American citizens and trying them in civilian courts is a form of national suicide and says the tea party movement is a huge development that will keep Republicans true to conservative principles. [Snip] Asked about the political problems the Democrats face in the wake of their poor showing in the midterm elections,...

David Horowitz is one of those rare people who change lives. I know, because he changed mine. When I started snapping out of my Leftist trance three years ago, I had nowhere to turn. I didn't have the foggiest idea why thugs were surrounding Obama. Weren't the progressives the good guys? I turned to my local Borders bookstore for some answers. There I found the writings of David Horowitz, to which I could immediately relate. Like me, Horowitz was a Jew from New York who was hoodwinked by radicalism. But that's where the similarities stopped. My parents were JFK-type liberals...

The Democrats and other leftists are calling the Tea Parties racist. No surprise there. Race-baiting and race mongering have been a second nature to the left for decades. A typical race-baiting tactic is to ask how come the Tea Parties have so few blacks? The answer may be racism but its not the Tea Parties racism. According to recent polls 91% of blacks approve of the job Barack Obama is doing. Only 39% of non-blacks (that includes Asians and Hispanics) feel the same way. Only someone with suicidal instincts would point to these statistics as indication that the racial shoe...

It was primarily Christians who sought freedom of worship by coming to the New World, but since then America has flourished with just about every hybrid of religion you can imagine. And we manage to get along pretty well. Of course we must endure overly nice people with tracts and flowers or those who woo you with green Jell-O. But bottom line, if we dont like it, we ignore it, we shut the door, we abstain. Its our right as Americans because were free to worshipor not. Lately, theres been a new kid on the American block.

AUTHORS NOTE: I had just finished this essay when I heard the terrible news that my friend Christopher had a cancer whose prognosis was dire. My heart and thoughts go out to him, as they would to a brother. I have known Christopher as a man of great courage and decency and have an affection for him that is not adequately expressed in the intellectual argument that follows. It is indeed an intellectual argument, and Christopher, I am sure, will welcome it as a testament to the way in which he has challenged us all just as I am...

Hitchens is a big fan of humour, to be sure, and elsewhere, Horowitz has written about his experiences with the Black Panthers. But what strikes me about the British-born polemicist is that he often (not always) finds the funny in the pain. Indeed, after having lived through a post-Dickensian Dickensian boarding-school experience he casually observes (p. 62): I have just looked up the gleaming new website of Mount House, and realized that if I have set all this down in my turn, it is because I was among the last generation to go through the old school version of Englishness....

We are taught to believe that ideology is the enemy of free thought. But that's not right. Ideology is a mere checklist of principles and priorities. The real enemy of clear thinking is the script. We think the world is supposed to go by a familiar plot. And when the facts conflict with the script, we edit the facts. So, for instance, David Horowitz is a stock villain on U.S. campuses because he deviates from the standard formula of coddling the usual victims and lionizing the usual heroes. Once a committed left-wing radical, Horowitz now resides on the right. Two...

During the Question and Answer period, David Horowitz had a chilling exchange with a member of the MSA, a Student, in which he prodded her to reveal the depraved depths of her Jew-hatred. Whats shocking is not so much that she holds such views, but rather that she was willing to admit it. - 05 10 2010 Link to Youtube Here

Rarely has our country faced a more uncertain future under more troubling circumstances. We have been attacked by an enemy who is inspired by religious hatreds and is able to strike our homeland, something no adversary has been able to accomplish in modern times. Domestically, we are facing the greatest economic collapse in a generation, and our federal government is on its way to bankruptcy. Confronting these crises, we are led by the most inexperienced, radical, and divisive president in our nation’s history, a man who has appeased our enemies and attacked our allies abroad and has authorized a government...

The Rights response to David Frums perceived heresies has inflicted serious intellectual and political damage on the conservative movement. Im a full-spectrum conservative of conviction. But even if I leaned to the left, I still would find it laudatory that, in recent decades, political conservatives in America have been the most steadfast defenders of freedom of speech and the most vigorous champions of free and open intellectual inquiry. Indeed, no graduate of an American college or university in the past quarter century cannot help but notice that the biggest threat to free speech today comes not from the political Right,...

This story at Newsweek made my day today. (How often do we say that at NewsReal Blog?) But as soon as you begin reading the post at the publication's Declassified blog you'll understand why: Senate Intelligence Committee Chair Dianne Feinstein and other prominent Senate Democrats have accused spies at the Homeland Security Department of basing official intelligence reports on dubious open-source material. Inquiries by Declassified indicate that at least some of the data that Feinstein and her colleagues deemed questionable came from a website set up by outspoken conservative activist David Horowitz to catalogue negative information about the political left....

After our very own Editor-in-Chief David Horowitz wrote a post blasting progressive columnist and Professor of literature Eric Alterman, I sent the latter an email, inviting him to respond to Horowitzs post right here, at NewsReal Blog. Why? Well, because we, unlike most progressives, mean it when we say we encourage debate. Alterman emailed me back immediately. The answer was short: No thanks. Its what I should have expected from a leftist, of course, but for some reason, I expected better of Alterman. I thought he would actually be willing to break ranks with the rest of the radical progressive...

Despite the fact that in an act of petty malice and politically-motivated spite, Leon Wieseltier has banned me (or mention of my work) from The New Republic for twenty-five years, I have always regarded the literary pages that he edits as the best back of the book section in the opinion magazine business. No more. The current issue of The New Republic contains a vapid, mean-spirited, and indefensible attack on one of the most important intellectual figures of our time. Alan Wolfes review of Thomas Sowells new book, Intellectuals and Society, is not even a review. Not a single idea...

St. Louis University, a Catholic institution, continues on a path designed to made it a laughingstock in the annals of academic freedom, maintaining its ban on yours truly while proclaiming its commitment to intellectual diversity and academic freedom. From Inside Higher Ed: David Horowitz cant seem to get into Saint Louis University no matter how hard he tries. Six months ago, the university blocked a student organization from bringing Horowitz to the university for one of his talks about Islamo-fascism. Horowitz is a conservative critic of higher education as well as a wide range of other sectors of society. The...

Have you noticed that the further leftists travel off the deep end the more they perceive everyone else to be crazy? DailyKos just conducted a poll to underpin Markos Moulitsas new book describing Republicans as Americas Taliban which is rich, considering its leftists like Moulitsas who are doing everything in their power to help the Taliban and other Islamic Nazis to win their war against the West. Now comes John Avlon at the Daily Beast with a competitive contribution about conservative Wingnuts using Moulitsass poll to promote his own new book. While I would distrust any poll conducted for...

The other day a reporter from NPR called me and asked me for my comments on the death of the lifelong Stalinist and propagandist Howard Zinn. I was a little reluctant because I knew that whatever I said, legions of unscrupulous myrmidons on the left would jump on it and say I had spit on Zinns grave. I also knew that while I was interviewed for ten minutes, out of what I said only a 20 second sound-bite would make it onto the air. I dont begrudge NPR this selection. Thats what their obit was and would have to be,...

Mr.DAVID HOROWITZ (Author): There is absolutely nothing in Howard Zinns intellectual output that is worthy of any kind of respect.

Here's my latest post for NewsReal. When Iranian lovers of liberty and democracy decided that the mad Mullahs had persecuted, tortured and killed them long enough, and organized protest after protest against their rule, you expected America to come out in support of them. After all, the land of the free and the home of the brave has always been an example and inspiration to all those who love freedom. Sadly, no word of support came from the White House. Instead of praising the brave Iranians protesting against the Islamo-fascist thugs who have oppressed them for three decades already, President...

I think its interesting as well as worrying that the left should conform to a historic pattern of appeasement and enabling of our totalitarian enemies. I am referring to the left that extends from the Chomsky supporters of Hamas to the Joshua Micah Marshall-Huffington Post liberals who may despise Chomsky 0r may not but in any case regard Robert Spencer and David Horowitz as the greater threat, regard the term Islamo-fascism as religious hate speech and join the chorus of apologists for Americas enemies. With the liberals acquiescence and active help, Islamo-fascists have penetrated our military and intelligence...

Im trying to come up with a yardstick to measure the incompetence of the Obama administration and failing. And its political incompetence Im talking about. You come into office in the midst of the biggest financial crisis in decades and facing what you at least are telling the public the threat of a general economic meltdown. So what do you do? Focus on the economy? Create jobs? No, you make the centerpiece of your legislative agenda one that has occupied the center of the national stage since July or August a massive overhaul of the healthcare system...

It is time to cast aside all remaining doubt. President Obama is not trying to lead America forward to recovery, prosperity and strength. Quite the opposite, in fact. In September of last year, American Thinker published my article, Barack Obama and the Strategy of Manufactured Crisis. Part of a series, it connected then presidential candidate Barack Obama to individuals and organizations practicing a malevolent strategy for destroying our economy and our system of government. Since then the story of that strategy has found its way across the blogosphere, onto the airwaves of radio stations across the country, the Glenn Beck...
