(THanks, iHillary, for the graphic.)
That the ACLU has not strayed from its communist roots nor surrendered its fundamental goal of overthrowing the United States is arguable only by those who don’t care for facts. Stop the ACLU and other organizations, along with many private citizens, have awakened to the facts and are doing everything within their power to legally and ethically Stop the ACLU from further weakening the fabric of American society.
In promoting its agenda, the ACLU has allied itself with CAIR, a terrorist appologist/enabling group. And indeed, if the ACLU is not openly allied with Islamic terrorism, it is at the very least a co-beligerant enabler of attacks upon the United States.
Which is strange, if one were to believe the ACLU’s oft-repeated (disingenuous) statements of radical support for free speech “freedom of expression.” (The ACLU has not supported the First Amendment for years, if ever… except when it suits their purposes of destroying American society by supporting the likes of NAMBLA pervs.)
And this is why the ACLU has offered no support for those calling for free speech and free press in the matter of the Mohammed cartoons. Cartoons and “art” denigrating Christianity? Full bore support, of course.
Many are now signing a new manifesto, as at Stop the ACLU and All Things Beautiful. Rather than talk about it much, here’s the manifesto that, IF the ACLU were serious about freedom of speech and the press, should have come from it… (but of course did not):
MANIFESTO: Together facing the new totalitarianism
After having overcome fascism, Nazism, and Stalinism, the world now faces a new totalitarian global threat: Islamism.
We, writers, journalists, intellectuals, call for resistance to religious totalitarianism and for the promotion of freedom, equal opportunity and secular values for all.
The recent events, which occurred after the publication of drawings of Muhammed in European newspapers, have revealed the necessity of the struggle for these universal values. This struggle will not be won by arms, but in the ideological field. It is not a clash of civilisations nor an antagonism of West and East that we are witnessing, but a global struggle that confronts democrats and theocrats.
Like all totalitarianisms, Islamism is nurtured by fears and frustrations. The hate preachers bet on these feelings in order to form battalions destined to impose a liberticidal and unegalitarian world. But we clearly and firmly state: nothing, not even despair, justifies the choice of obscurantism, totalitarianism and hatred. Islamism is a reactionary ideology which kills equality, freedom and secularism wherever it is present. Its success can only lead to a world of domination: man’s domination of woman, the Islamists’ domination of all the others. To counter this, we must assure universal rights to oppressed or discriminated people.
We reject cultural relativism, which consists in accepting that men and women of Muslim culture should be deprived of the right to equality, freedom and secular values in the name of respect for cultures and traditions. We refuse to renounce our critical spirit out of fear of being accused of “Islamophobiaâ€, an unfortunate concept which confuses criticism of Islam as a religion with stigmatisation of its believers.
We plead for the universality of freedom of expression, so that a critical spirit may be exercised on all continents, against all abuses and all dogmas.
We appeal to democrats and free spirits of all countries that our century should be one of Enlightenment, not of obscurantism.
Consider me a signatory.
