Know Your Leftist Enemy
Reading
for Sam’s Saturday Stag meeting January 25 TH - 2 pm
On Jan. 10, 1963,
Congressman Albert S. Herlong Jr. of Florida read a list of 45 Communist goals
into the Congressional Record. The list was derived from researcher Cleon
Skousen’s book “The Naked Communist.” These principles are well worth
revisiting today in order to gain insights into the thinking and strategies of
much of our so-called liberal elite:
1. U.S. should accept
coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.
2. U.S. should be
willing to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war. [Note: These encapsulate the Kennan Doctrine,
which advocated for the "containment" of communism. Establishment
figures supporting the amoral containment policy at least implicitly worked
with the communists in scaring the wits out of the American people concerning
atomic war. President Ronald Reagan undid the doctrine when he took an
aggressive stand against the Evil Empire by backing freedom fighters from
around the world that were struggling against the left-wing communist jackboot.
As a result, the Soviet Union and its satellites imploded, a considerable and
unexpected setback to the international communist edifice.]
3. Develop the illusion
that total disarmament by the U.S. would be a demonstration of "moral
strength." [Note: The nuclear
freeze advocates supported a freeze on American nuclear development only.
Rarely were Soviet nukes or those of other nations mentioned in their
self-righteous tirades. The same advocates now call for reducing American
military might, claiming that there is something immoral about America
preserving its military pre-eminence in the world.]
4. Permit free trade
between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of
whether or not items could be used for war. [Note: Today, there are calls to end the embargo on the slave
island of Cuba, there were complaints about the embargo against Iraq, and the
U.S., not Saddam Hussein, was blamed for the suffering of the Iraqi people.
Would they have advocated for free trade with Hitler and his National Socialist
regime?]
5. Extend long-term
loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.
6. Provide American aid
to all nations regardless of Communist domination. [Note: Such aid and trade over decades
contributed greatly to the left-wing communist liquidation of over 100 million
people worldwide, according to the well-documented "Black Book of Communism."
This aid and trade marks a shameful chapter in American history. Without the
aid and trade, the left-wing international communist behemoth would have
imploded on its own rot a lot sooner and umpteen millions would have been saved
from poverty, misery, starvation and death.]
7. Grant recognition of
Red China and admission of Red China to the U.N. [Note: Not only did President Jimmy Carter fulfill this goal but
he also betrayed America’s allies in Nicaragua, El Salvador, Iran, Afghanistan,
Angola and elsewhere.]
8. Set up East and West
Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev's promise in 1955 to settle
the Germany question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.
9. Prolong the
conferences to ban atomic tests because the U.S. has agreed to suspend tests as
long as negotiations are in progress.
10. Allow all Soviet
satellites individual representation in the U.N.
11. Promote the U.N. as
the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set
up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. [Note: There are still American intellectuals,
and elected members of Congress, who dream of an eventual one world government
and who view the U.N., founded by communists such as Alger Hiss, the first
secretary-general, as the instrument to bring this about. World government was
also the dream of Adolf Hitler and J.V. Stalin. World government was the dream
of Osama bin Laden and the 9/11 hijackers.]
12. Resist any attempt
to outlaw the Communist Party. [Note: While the idea of
banning any political party runs contrary to notions of American freedom and
liberty, notions that are the exact opposite of those held by the left-wing
communists themselves, nevertheless these goals sought to undermine the
constitutional obligation of Congress to investigate subversion. The weakening
of our government’s ability to conduct such investigations led to the attack of
9/11.]
13. Do away with loyalty
oaths. [Note: It is entirely
proper and appropriate for our government to expect employees, paid by the
American taxpayer, to take an oath of loyalty.]
14. Continue giving
Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.
15. Capture one or both
of the political parties in the U.S. [Note: In his book, "Reagan’s War," Peter Schweizer
demonstrates the astonishing degree to which communists and communist
sympathizers have penetrated the Democratic Party. In his book, Schweizer
writes about the presidential election of 1979.]
16. Use technical
decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions, by claiming
their activities violate civil rights. [Note: This strategy goes back to the founding of the American
Civil Liberties Union by Fabian Socialists Roger Baldwin and John Dewey and
Communists William Z. Foster and Elizabeth Gurley Flynn among others.]
17. Get control of the
schools. Use them as transmission belts for Socialism and current Communist
propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers associations. Put
the party line in textbooks.
18. Gain control of all
student newspapers.
19. Use student riots to
foment public protests against programs or organizations that are under
Communist attack. [Note:The
success of these goals, from a communist perspective, is obvious. Is there any
doubt this is so?]
20. Infiltrate the
press. Get control of book review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making
positions.
21. Gain control of key
positions in radio, TV & motion pictures.
22. Continue
discrediting American culture by degrading all form of artistic expression. An
American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from
parks and buildings," substituting shapeless, awkward and meaningless
forms.
23. Control art critics
and directors of art museums. " Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive,
meaningless art."
24. Eliminate all laws
governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of
free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural
standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books,
magazines, motion pictures, radio and TV. [Note: This is the Gramscian agenda of the "long march
through the institutions" spelled out explicitly: gradual takeover of the
"means of communication" and then using those vehicles to debauch the
culture and weaken the will of the individual to resist.]
26. Present
homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural and
healthy." [Note:
Today those few who still have the courage to advocate public morality are
denounced and viciously attacked. Most Americans are entirely unwitting
regarding the motives behind this agenda.]
27. Infiltrate the
churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion.
Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which
does not need a "religious crutch." [Note: This has been largely accomplished through the communist
infiltration of the National Council of Churches, Conservative and Reform
Judaism, and the Catholic seminaries.]
28. Eliminate prayer or
any phase of religious expression in the schools on the grounds that it
violates the principle of "separation of church and state"
29. Discredit the
American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old fashioned, out of step with
modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
30. Discredit the
American founding fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no
concern for the "common man."
31. Belittle all forms
of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the
ground that it was only a minor part of "the big picture." Give more
emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over. [Note: Obliterating the American past, with its
antecedents in principles of freedom, liberty and private ownership is a major
goal of the communists then and now.]
32. Support any
socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture –
education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
33. Eliminate all laws
or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
34. Eliminate the House
Committee on Un-American Activities.
35. Discredit and
eventually dismantle the FBI.
36. Infiltrate and gain
control of more unions.
37. Infiltrate and gain
control of big business.
38. Transfer some of the
powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral
problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand
or treat. [Note: The Soviets used
to send "social misfits" and those deemed politically incorrect to
massive mental institutions called gulags. The Red Chinese call them lao gai.
Hitler called them concentration camps.]
39. Dominate the
psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining
coercive control over those who oppose communist goals.[Note: Psychiatry
remains a bulwark of the communist agenda of fostering self-criticism and
docility.]
40. Discredit the family
as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce. [Note: Done! The sovereign family is the single
most powerful obstacle to authoritarian control.]
41. Emphasize the need
to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute
prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of
parents. [Note: Outcome-based
education, values clarification or whatever they’re calling it this year.]
42. Create the
impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the
American tradition; that students and special interest groups should rise up
and make a "united force" to solve economic, political or social
problems. [Note: This describes
the dialectical fostering of group consciousness and conflict, which furthers
the interests of authoritarianism.]
43. Overthrow all
colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.
44. Internationalize the
Panama Canal.
45. Repeal the Connally
Reservation so the U.S. cannot prevent the World Court from seizing
jurisdiction over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over
domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over nations and
individuals alike.
How To Create A Socialist State
There are 8 levels of control that must be obtained before you are able to create a social state. The first is the most important.
1) Healthcare –
Control healthcare and you control the people
2) Poverty –
Increase the Poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them to live.
3) Debt –
Increase the debt to an unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes, and this will produce more poverty.
4) Gun Control –
Remove the ability to defend themselves from the Government. That way you are able to create a police state.
5) Welfare –
Take control of every aspect of their lives (Food, Housing, and Income)
6) Education –
Take control of what people read and listen to – take control of what children learn in school.
7) Religion –
Remove the belief in God from the Government and schools
8) Class Warfare –
Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to take (Tax) the wealthy with the support of the poor.
Does any of this sound like what is happening to the United States ?

Saul Alinsky has the following list of
"power tactics" Alinsky outlined in his 1971 book Rules for Radicals:
Always remember the first rule of power tactics: Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.
The second rule is: Never go outside the experience of your people. When an action is outside the experience of the people, the result is confusion, fear, and retreat.
The third rule is: Wherever possible go outside the experience of the enemy. Here you want to cause confusion, fear, and retreat.
The fourth rule is: Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules. You can kill them with this, for they can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity.
The fourth rule carries within it the fifth rule: Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule. Also it infuriates the opposition, who then react to your advantage.
The sixth rule is: A good tactic is one that your people enjoy. If your people are not having a ball doing it, there is something very wrong with the tactic.
The seventh rule: A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag. Man can sustain militant interest in any issue for only a limited time, after which it becomes a ritualistic commitment, like going to church on Sunday mornings.
The eighth rule: Keep the pressure on, with different tactics and actions, and utilize all events of the period for your purpose.
The ninth rule: The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.
The tenth rule: The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition. It is this unceasing pressure that results in the reactions from the opposition that are essential for the success of the campaign.
The eleventh rule is: If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its counterside; this is based on the principle that every positive has its negative.
The twelfth rule: The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative. You cannot risk being trapped by the enemy in his sudden agreement with your demand and saying "You're right — we don't know what to do about this issue. Now you tell us."

Both Hillary and Obama were students of Alinsky's
tactics.
