Review of Unholy Alliance: Radical Islam and the American Left

by admin

by Harry Antonides

The nature of political doublespeak never changes and its agenda is always the same: Obliteration of historical memory in the service of power…. Only a restored memory can demolish totalitarian myths and make men free.

(David Horowitz, in Big Lies, Center for the Study of Popular Culture, 2005)

David Horowitz, born in 1939, grew up in a Communist household, and at first followed in his parents’ footsteps. He became one of the leading lights of the 1960s revolution.

He was already beginning to question his Marxist faith when in 1974 one of his colleagues, Betty Van Patter – a mother of three children – was brutally murdered by members of the Black Panthers Party for Self-Defense, a ruthless gang of fanatic believers in the socialist revolution.

A Life Mission

Profound soul-searching followed and led to a complete break with his former friends. He became an eloquent and courageous foe of his erstwhile comrades. In scores of essays, books and interviews he has exposed the treachery and hatred that animate the radical Left in America.

Review of Unholy Alliance, All Spelled Out

by admin

by Jay Nordlinger
Originally published October 25, 2004 in National Review

Politically speaking, it’s probably the most explosive suggestion you can make today: that the Left has joined hands with radical Islam. That it is fellow-traveling with it. Such a suggestion will get you branded a McCarthyite, immediately. But is it true (the suggestion, that is)? Afraid so. And this case is powerfully, sickeningly made in David Horowitz’s new book.

At first blush, it may seem an odd alliance: the leftists and the Islamists. After all, Islamists are premodern “conservatives.” Reflecting on a big anti-war rally in London, Mark Steyn pointed out that militant lesbians were marching alongside militant Muslims. Did the former care that the latter would have them dead? Not really.

What unites the Left and Islamism, above all, is a deep-seated hatred of the United States (and, secondarily, Israel). Also, an absolutist, totalist view of the world. Those are enough.
