Hate of America

Reader comment on item: Why the Left Loves Osama [and Saddam, Explains Lee Harris]

Submitted by Paul M. Neville (United States), Mar 19, 2003 at 08:32

I think the most important appeal Islamic Facism has for leftists and marxists is its unending hatred of all things American and Western. Since the fall of the Soviet Union and the abandonment of Marxist economic principals by all "socialist" governments except Cuba and North Korea, this hatred is the sole unifying priciple of the left.
