Young Socialist protester from Detroit speaks out on National Day of Action to Defend Education.
[Thursday, March 4 was... National Day of Action to Defend Education, David Horowitz discusses what the protests were really all about.]
HOROWITZ: [In the 60's] I was a Marxist revolutionary… I was a leader of the new left and edited its largest magazine… What you see in these [education] protests is hundreds of groups… [with basicly] the same agendas, that corporations are evil, we want socialism, we want the government to own everything and control everything and create social justice…
We used to call it the hydraheaded monster… created… to fool people that we had different agendas from what the communists had. [Just] look [at] organizations [who attended the rally]… there’s one, Bail Out the People Movement… [t]his is a front group for International Answer, which is a pro North Korea Communist Party… [Y]ou have… Anakbayan… which means sons and daughters of the people… the movement… support[s] Hamas and Hezbollah, the terrorists… This is what I call the neocommunist core of the progressive movement. The progressive movement[s] fellow travelers…
And then you have SDS… [SDS is where the Weather Underground came from] which is a violent campus organization. [T]hey said we’re going underground and we’re going… to be authentic revolutionaries. We’re not just going to scream revolutionary slogans. We’re going to actually blow things up.
SDS war against the imperialists, June 23, 1969.
Weather Underground Organization was an American radical left organization. It originated in 1969 as a faction of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS)… [t]heir goal was to create a clandestine [def. kept or done in secret] revolutionary party for the violent overthrow of the US government and the establishment of a dictatorship of the proletariat [def. lowest economic and social classes in society]. Marxian theory predicted a transitional phase between the abolition of capitalism and the establishment of communism during which a “dictatorship of the proletariat” would suppress resistance to the socialist revolution by the bourgeoisie [def. the middle class], destroy the social relations of production underlying the class system, and create a new, classless society… [T]he group conducted a campaign of bombings through the mid-1970s… [including] the bombing of the United States Capitol on March 1, 1971.

HOROWITZ: … [I]f you understand how evil it is [Marxism, Communism] and destructive and it wants to destroy America…, you do what I did. I mean, you get out and you denounce them and you work against them.
GLENN: I was in a cab… yesterday and the cabdriver was from Russia, former Soviet Union. And he said, people in America, they don’t understand. We talked for a little while about the code language. He said, even my daughter who is in college now is falling for the code language, and she doesn’t believe me. And I keep telling her, listen, this is the code language of the Soviet Union.
HOROWITZ… I call them neocommunists. We have a term… neoliberals, neoconservatives, neo Nazis. These are neocommunists. Same agendas, different faith… [M]embers of the Communist Party never refer to themselves as communists. They were always progressives. The slogan of the Communist Party at the height under Stalin was peace, jobs and democracy… [I]f you just go down the list of these organizations [who attended the rally]… two communist unions, aside from the teacher unions would be the SEIU and ASME, which is the municipal employees…
There’s a[nother] good one that I like here [sarcasm]: Destroy Industry in Raleigh, North Carolina. I mean, that tells you what they’re about. It’s just terrible.
[w]hat this guy [the Bald Communist, Jed Brandt] is saying is what they believe. You know, there are [legitimate] ways of changing the world… you tell people… we want to create a society where the government controls everything, and you put it up for a vote…. But these people have… hidden agendas and that’s what makes them so dangerous.
[T]he people who were in [our Marxist Revolutionary] movement,… in the Sixties now are running the government and they run the New York Times and the Washington Post. All those people were part of the left, of the Sixties. And their agendas are the same… [but] their tactics are different… They feel he [the Bald Communist] is hurting their cause. [They] want to conceal… the agendas of the[ir] cause. But their agendas are identical…
[T]o defend the free market system, you defend private property, you defend individual rights and you oppose group collective rights… [A]ll these… liberals and progressives, they are against the First Amendment, they attacked the Supreme Court decision [to allows campaign advertising up to election day] which was a basic First Amendment decision …They are for racial preferences that is privileging certain designated groups who they call oppressed… they are for socialism.
…Obviously there wouldn’t be this unbelievable push for a healthcare plan that… a vast majority of people do… not want, if they didn’t have these agendas. They want control. It’s about control.
[If healthcare doesn't pass] I think the potential for violence… is very real… But much more serious is that they are integrated with our terrorist enemies. They have networks and their ideology links them into the Islamic jihad. I actually… have experience of this… I was a very intellectual leftist. I never threw a rock. But as the editor of Ramparts magazine, which is the biggest magazine of the left, I was approached… by a defector from our intelligence services. And we printed national secrets in the magazine and… nothing happened to us… I was advised… by Harvard law professor, still a professor of constitutional law, on exactly how to commit treason.
So this… revolutionary mentality, the idea that you can change the world or change America fundamentally, which is what Obama said, is a very, very dangerous mentality.
