It is indisputable that since at least the beginning of the Twentieth
Century the American Left has been engaged in a guerilla war against
its own country, while having a love fest with their totalitarian
idols who seek our destruction.

As Dr. Jamie Glazov explains in the Preface to his new book, United in
Hate: The Left’s Romance with Tyranny and Terror (WND Books):
http://www.amazon.com/United-Hate-Ro.../dp/1935071602

"Throughout the twentieth century, the Western Left supported one
totalitarian killing machine after another. Prominent intellectuals
from George Bernard Shaw to Bertolt Brecht to Susan Sontag venerated
mass murderers such as Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Castro, and Ho Chi Minh,
habitually excusing their atrocities while blaming America, and even
the victims, for the crimes.

"After 9/11, when the Islamist death cult made itself the West’s new
worst adversary, history repeated itself. The Left once again gave its
affection to mass murderers and heaped its scorn on America and the
West. The only difference this time around was that the Left’s
favorite murderers were waving not the red flag of proletarian
revolution, but the black flag of Islamic jihad. As they did in the
twentieth century, members of the political faith, like Jimmy Carter,
Noan Chomsky, Michael Moore, and Tom Hayden, once again reached out to
bloodthirsty tyrants bent on human destruction."

That the American Left has been guilty of this moral treason to their
birthright is by now a well known story. Too well known, in fact—as
witnessed by Carter’s abandonment of the Shah of Iran, Chomsky’s
gloating about 9/11, Moore’s paean to the Cuban dictator, and Hayden’s
constitutional treason in North Vietnam. Other equally immoral conduct
by prominent Americans abounds.

What is not as well known, however, is found in the promise of Dr.
Glazov’s Preface’s last sentence: “This book,” he writes, “is
dedicated to exploring the reasons why” (my emphasis). He wants to
understand “the impulses that stimulate the radical mind and that have
led to its love affair with radical Islam”—an assignment which, if
accomplished successfully, will be of inestimable value.

The author’s exploration of this crucially important distinction—
between the that of Americans repudiating individual rights and
democracy, and the why of their aberrant, contra-intuitive behavior—
can provide intellectuals and activists alike with a powerful weapon
in the fight against America’s enemies.

Several themes which explain the why are developed at far greater
length than can be explicated here. For example, in Chapter Two Dr.
Glazov identifies that “the believer’s totalitarian journey begins
with an acute sense of alienation from his own society.” He expands
this identification with the realization that at bottom his
“believers” are collectivists:

"In rejecting his own society, the believer spurns the values of
democracy and individual freedom, which are anathema to him, since he
has miserably failed to cope with both the challenges they pose and
the possibilities they offer. Tortured by his personal alienation,
which is accompanied by feelings of self-loathing, the believer craves
a fairy-tale world where no individuality exists, and where human
estrangement is thus impossible. The believer fantasizes about how his
own individuality and self will be submerged within the collective
whole."

A related theme is how personal alienation, and thus the need to
belong to “something bigger than oneself,” ideally populated by co-
victims, is related to guilt, the need for power, and its worship in
the hands of a strongman: Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Castro, Ho, Pol Pot,
Saddam, Arafat.

In his telling of the why, Dr. Glazov’s narrative covers vast
territory: apologist pilgrims to the hellholes of the Soviet Union,
Red China, North Vietnam and Communist Cuba; their reigning despots’
savage repression of individual rights and human dignity; the nature
and goals of death-cult Islam; twenty-first century terrorism; and
more.

And at the core of the alienation, self-hatred, envy, fear, and other-
hatred are the warped psychologies of the supplicants who through the
years have worshiped at the feet of the modern world’s most monstrous
figures, while the streets are awash with blood and the lands fill
with corpses. All, they say, in the name of peace, brotherhood and a
promised utopia that is to be achieved by mass murder of innocent men,
women and children.

Dr. Jamie Glazov has written a very important, impeccably sourced and
beautifully written book. As promised, it explains the why which
motivates some human beings to eschew life and instead worship death—
all in the name of filling, through death and destruction, the self-
caused void in their own souls.

United in Hate is a cautionary tale. Unless its message is heard, and
acted upon, that death and destruction will continue to metastasize
until freedom is dealt a blow from which it may not recover.
