On the August 4 edition of his CNN Headline News program, Glenn Beck said: "The thing that I do find about [Sen.] Barack Obama is that -- and I think America is starting to catch on to this -- this guy really is a Marxist. He believes in the redistribution of wealth. He believes in the global government and everything else." Beck made his comments while discussing the recently released book, The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality (Threshold Editions), with author Jerome Corsi. As Media Matters for America has documented , the book is filled with false and baseless attacks against Obama. Beck has previously said of Barack and Michelle Obama, "[T]here's a socialist agenda there for America." He has also described other politicians in similar terms, including calling Sen. Hillary Clinton "Comrade Clinton" and characterizing former Sen. John Edwards (D-NC) as "a communist." From the August 4 edition of CNN Headline News' Glenn Beck: BECK: Tell me the role that Saul Alinsky -- who's not a friend of his -- Saul Alinsky plays in his life. And who is Saul Alinsky, in case people don't know? CORSI: Well, when Obama went to Chicago to be a community organizer, he was a Saul Alinsky community organizer. He went into a Saul Alinsky organization. Alinsky was a radical -- going back even to the '30s -- a radical socialist organizer. His main book, Rules for Radicals , Alinsky said was written -- you know, Machiavelli wro ... Source: buzzflash.net --- 22 days ago
Election '08: A plan by Barack Obama to redistribute American wealth on a global level is moving forward in the Senate. It follows Marxist theology. We are citizens of the world, Sen. Obama told thousands of nonvoting Germans during his recent tour of the Middle East and Europe. And if the Global Poverty Act (S. 2433) he has sponsored becomes law, which is almost certain if he wins in November, we're also going to be taxpayers of the world. Speaking in Berlin, Obama said: "While the 20th century taught us that we share a common destiny, the 21st has revealed a world more intertwined than at any time in human history." What the 20th century really showed was a series of totalitarian threats -- from fascism to Nazism to communism -- defeated by the U.S. military. Hitler's Germany, Mussolini's Italy, Tojo's Japan and the Soviet Union offered destinies we did not share. Our destiny of peace and freedom through strength was not achieved by a transnationalist fantasy of buying the world a Coke and singing "Kumbaya." ... Source: www.geo.tv --- 19 days ago
NEW DELHI: Harkishan Singh Surjeet, the pragmatic Marxist leader, who played a key role in keeping BJP out of power in 1996 and helped Congress form a coalition government at the Centre eight years later, died here today after prolonged illness. The former party General Secretary was earlier admitted to the hospital on May six following a severe cardiac arrest and slipped into coma on May 16. He fought back and was discharged on June 3. Despite his Communist background, Surjeet was a consummate player of the democratic political game and was instrumental in the formation of three Indian coalition governments at the Centre. At the height his anti-Congress days, he along with BJP in the pre-Babri Masjid demolition days, helped V P Singh form the National Front government in 1989. Later, he took outside support of Congress to form the United Front government to keep BJP out of power in 1996. Ultimately, again he was in forth front when he brought forth a coalition of parties to help Congress form a government at the Centre in 2004. ... Source: www.colombopage.com --- 14 days ago

* Comrade Surjeet is no more. A flood of memories overwhelms me as I start to write this. I met him first in 1973, 35 years ago. His sharp and, at times, mischievous eyes, and the speed of his speech would often leave me and fellow comrades confused trying to decipher exactly what he had said. He was always quicksilver, thought on his feet, leaving his political adversaries at least two steps behind. * When I came into the Central Committee in 1984 and started working for the party's (…) - August 9, 2008 ...

The View From Steeltown does not often report on issues outside of the Americas but this was too good to pass: A Marxist novel written in 1929 has climbed high on Japan's best-seller lists, reflecting growing anxiety about job security and widening income gaps in the Japanese economy. "I think people are feeling keenly that the economy is starting to slow down and things are getting more difficult," said Sota Furuya, a 27-year-old marketing consultant who recently read the book. Furuya is one of the many Japanese readers who have bought "Kanikosen," or "A Crab-Canning Boat," in recent months. It is near the top of several leading best-seller lists in the country, almost unheard of for a book of this genre. "Kanikosen" tells the tale of a crab boat crew working in harsh conditions under a sadistic captain. It was written by Takiji Kobayashi, a communist who was tortured to death by the police at the age of 29 in 1933. Most of the novel is devoted to the crew's struggle to unite and coordinate a strike, and the story ends with their vow to topple their capitalists masters. The book has long been a favorite of scholars of Marxist literature, but it gained mainstream attention after an advertising campaign linked it with the concept of the working poor, said Tsutomu Sasaki of Shinchosha Publishing, which has reprinted the pocket-sized book. Experts say the novel's popularity reflects anxiety over job security, widening wage gaps and the h ...
By M Rama Rao, India Editor, Asian Tribune Harkishan Singh Surjeet Veteran Marxist Communist leader Harkishan Singh Surjeet, who earned the sobriquet of modern day ‘Chanakya’, died on Friday after a brief illness. He was 92. A life-long fighter against communalism, Surjeet, who started his political innings as a student in pre-partition India, is better known for keeping the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) out of power in Delhi and helping the Sonia Congress to form the present UPA coalition government led by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. Political commentators are unanimous that had he been active the UPA government would not have faced the music it had experienced at the hands of the Communist leaders in July over the issue of nuclear agreement with the United States. read more ...
