#1 Soros wrote: “A misleading figure of speech applied literally has unleashed a real war fought on several fronts -- Iraq, Gaza, Lebanon, Afghanistan, Somalia -- a war that has killed thousands of innocent civilians and enraged millions around the world…. We can escape it only if we Americans repudiate the war on terror as a false metaphor.”

Since access to high-quality information is no problem for this guy, I can only guess that—with all of his fabulous wealth—Soros is able to afford some extremely powerful drugs.

“you cannot cripple an opponent by outwitting him in a political debate. You can only do so by following Lenin’s injunction: ‘In political conflicts, the goal is not to refute your opponent’s argument, but to wipe him from the face of the earth.’”

While the foregoing may be misapplied in the case of Horowitz, it certainly is worth noting in the context of our current conflict with Islam. Even a dead Lenin stopped clock is right twice a day.

here is a sample of some recent attacks directed at me, which are taken from the Google index: “Fat-assed,” “faux-intellectual,” “a quintessential slobbering lackey,” “neo-con,” “insane,” “Trotskyist turned neo-con scumbag,” “Stalinist,” “Maoist,” “former communist,” “brimming with self-hate,” “hyperventilating about commies,” “traitor,”“anti-education fanatic,” “witch-hunter,” “far-right fanatic,” “far-right wacko,” “Ahmadinejad’s double,” “little Fuehrer,” “right-wing nut,” “Grand Wizard,” “anti-Muslim,” “religious bigot,” “arch- racist,” “Zionist neo-conservative,” “racist Zionist Jew,” “extremist racist Zionist Jew,” “a Nazi mind with a Zionist face,” “a notorious icon of Zionist Islamophobia,” “a blatant Judeo-fascist crusader of Zionism and social regressivism,” “Zionist poof.”

Geez, I guess I've got it pretty easy.

I have been rushed on the stage in such unlikely locations as the Pacific Design Center and the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Los Angeles – both times by members of the Revolutionary Communist Party who were out in force during Islamo-Fascism Awareness week. In both these cases, I had failed to hire security and would have been beaten if members of the audience had not tackled the would-be assailants and wrestled them to the ground.

So much for the Left's idea of free speech. I can only wonder why it is that they feel so threatened by one single person's message. If their entire political house-of-cards is that flimsy maybe it is in serious need of toppling. The political process intrinsically demands that a given platform be robust and able to withstand critical assault. It is an automatic admission of failure if resorting to violence and slander are the only ways of defending your ideas from disproof. That Islam utilizes the Left's exact same tools in projecting its own ideology is neither conincidental nor much of a surprise.

Would any Jew infidel, knowing that there are fanatics in our midst who are incited by their religion to regard us as apes and monkeys, and who see violence as a ticket to heaven, wish to test their forbearance?

There, fixed that. It is also worth noting the precise meme of how violence—something generally condemned in most religions—is specifically exalted in Islam.

“In honor of Islamofascism Awareness Week I am busy rewriting all of my old history books in order to properly show that the danger of some men in caves, along with one moderate regional power are in fact a greater threat to the United States than were the Soviet Union, Nazi Germany, the secessionist Confederacy, and even the Redcoats from our founding days.”

If it weren't so pathetic it would be amusing to see the Left inadvertantly stumble across the truth as they blindly grope after sensationalist smear language.

#2 There have been more than 9,000 terrorist attacks since 9/11, including the murders of Western infidels such as Theo Van Gogh, whose crime was attempting to warn others. A petition is currently being circulated by leftist professors, like Eric Foner, at Columbia, which among other things condemns its president for criticizing the Islamo-fascist, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, when he was a guest at the school.[16] There have been (and will be) no such petitions to condemn the campus radicals who mounted a hate campaign against conservative students and the speakers they invited to discuss the threat from Islamo-fascists like Ahmadinejad. And therein lies the problem for our country.

#3 Soros is a leftist billionaire trying to be what he thinks is relevant.
