New Atheism a front for Zionism?

Militant atheism has been around since the Great French Revolution of 1789. The New Atheism is clearly nothing more than a front for militant Zionism. No honest socialist-even if a convinced atheist- will sympathize with this deranged and decadent bunch. They have been accurately described as Islamophobes.

A non-religious socialist will find more inspiration and instruction in a long forgotten book written by that incorrigible atheist and REVOLUTIONARY– Vladimir Lenn, the leader of Russia's Bolshevik Revolution in 1917.  Like Marx Lenin believed that the only cure for religious confusion was a rational social order.

Any honest socialist will oppose Zionism and support the oppressed and downtrodden in every country. The world's Muslims present a truer picture of oppression than comfortable middle class Jews in a nuclear armed and belligerent Zionist Israel.

If Democratic politicians have any sense, they will not be there in the Congress to welcome the prime minister of Israel– war criminal Netanyahu in early March. Nor will they welcome the Catholic Pope unless he too is personally welcomed by the White House first.

Let the Ayn Rand Republicans greet  Mr. Netanyahu. Ayn Rand was a rabid fan of Israel too. So is the Ayn Rand Institute. Ayn was buried under the floral design of a dollar sign. A fitting symbol for global capitalism.

"The Socialist" -Barack Obama or Francois Holland?

A while back I noted in my blog ( http://radicalrons.blogspot.com/ ) that the aging pop singer Pat Boone accused President Obama in a Fox News interview of being a Marxist because  he does not want anybody to get rich. (link to blog article)

In his Jan.19 letter,  Class Divisions won't help America", Lewis A. Prescott thinks Obama is "once again trying to take us down the road to socialism". The Providence Journal editorial Jan.20 "Mr. Hollande's super tax opus" implies that even a very tamed, housebroken socialist is more than a little dangerous and foolish in high office.

The Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky was very familiar with all varieties of bourgeois socialism. He would have dismissed France's Hollande as "the ideal socialist leader for successful dentists."  The fate of the assassinated leader of Chile, Salvadore Allende, proves once again that real socialism can only be established by a powerful mass movement of the WORKING class.

Since the collapse of the Soviet Union the very idea of SOCIALISM has been kept alive by its fanatical ideological opponents. I get a strong dose of anti-socialism any time I turn on Red Eye Radio. Your editorials are more polite: anti-socialism for successful and prosperous used car salesmen.
