LAST CALL for Sunday, Feb. 7


A DAILY WRAP-UP OF SOME OF MY FAVORITE STORIES OF THE DAY
Pre-Game Presidential Propaganda
I didn’t watch Super Bowl XLIV today. The New England Patriots (my team) weren’t playing, so I avoided Katie Couric’s pre-game back-and-forth with President Barack Obama. No doubt it provided a good look at the best that state-run media has to offer. NRB writer [...]

NewsReal Contest: What is the Most Amazing Example of Leftist Condescension?


This morning I sent an email to David Horowitz ranting about one of my friends who was unhappy about me working for the DHFC. Specifically my friend didn’t care for my allegedly destructive, over-the-top, dogmatic rhetoric. He had to set me straight for how I was poisoning the world with my over-the-top denunciations of totalitarianism.
David [...]

Enjoying the Howard Zinn Blowback


Apparently the comment sections were not enough to contain the neo-communist Left’s rage that David Horowitz and NRB would dare to tell the truth about the disgusting positions Howard Zinn dedicated his life to promoting.
Two readers (so far) contacted NRB to express their disgust. Their names will be changed to protect both the ignorant and [...]

Smear Book

Why was a yarmulke photoshopped onto David Horowitz’s head for the cover of a new book
attacking anti-Jihad activists?

Why was a Yarmulke Photoshopped onto David Horowitz’s Head For the Cover of this Smear Book?


At JihadWatch Robert Spencer has a great post taking apart a new self-published book attacking him, David Horowitz, and other anti-Jihad activists.
Why was the jacket photograph of Horowitz from A Cracking of the Heart distorted and a yarmulke inserted? Horowitz is not religious and does not wear yarmulkes. I think I know why.

From the Writings of David Horowitz: February 2, 2010


Isaac Deutscher was my friend and mentor and so I write the following with heartfelt regret. He was a brilliant, innovative thinker and literary stylist, but his life’s work, including his masterpiece on Trotsky, is finally a monument to the intellectual bankruptcy of Marxism itself. When all is said and done, the Trotsky biography must [...]

Horowitz Questions Zinn Legacy on NPR


Mr.DAVID HOROWITZ (Author): There is absolutely nothing in Howard Zinn’s intellectual output that is worthy of any kind of respect.
KEYES: Conservative pundit and author David Horowitz is among critics who fiercely disagree with Zinn’s politics. Horowitz calls “A People’s History of the United States” a travesty.
Mr. HOROWITZ: Zinn represents a fringe mentality which has unfortunately [...]

NewsReal: At FrontPage  we ran a feature highlighting the release of Left Illusions on Kindle. In the piece I noted seven essays from the book which I felt were particularly important and interesting — not an easy task for Left Illusions. Are there any other pieces from the book which you think new readers should [...]

Nowhere Left to Turn
In my view, the problem for Obama is that no matter what he says, no one’s going to believe him — not the right, not the left, not the center. In a year in office has acquired a massive credibility problem, which is not helped by the way by his overexposure. Consider [...]

Another reason why radicals believe that their goals justify criminal means, and also why they can be relied on to lie and steal and, in the right context, either commit actual murder or justify murders when committed by their political friends, is because in their own minds they are engaged in a war for “social [...]
