An Urgent Message on Israel
From the Desk of David Horowitz
As I write, Hezbollah rockets are raining down on Haifa in the latest attempt by the Islamic jihad to destroy Israel, the only democracy and non-Muslim state in the Middle East.
This war is the same war America is fighting in Iraq. The enemies are the same- Islamic terrorists backed by Syria and Iran- and the stakes are the same, whether Islamic totalitarianism or democracy will prevail.
Israel is capable of defending herself. But behind Syria and Iran are Russia and China, and therefore she has always depended on her ally, the United States. I'm writing to you today because just as the Fifth Column left in this country has attempted to sabotage America's war in Iraq, so America's support for Israel is being undermined in alarming ways, and I badly need your support to help me fight back.
* Item one: As Israel came under attack last week, the producer of a talk show on a major Washington D.C. radio station declared that because the existence of Israel was bringing us to the brink of nuclear war, he could no longer support Israel's right to exist.
This producer is a left-wing Jew.
* Item two: Around the same time, the website Daily Kos, which is a power in the Democratic Party and is spearheading the campaign to unseat Joe Lieberman, posted an item headed, "Imagine a world without Israel." The subhead read, "Or is that not allowed?" This kind of hate-Israel sentiment is common on the left, and the left's influence is growing, especially in the Democratic Party.
That is why I have called Israel "the canary in the mine." The Islamic terror war against the United States mirrors its terror war against Israel, just as the left's attack on Israel mirrors its attack on America.
Just as Islamists accuse America of being the root cause of 9/11, so the left accuses Israel, a victim of fifty years of Arab wars to destroy it, of being the aggressor in the Middle East.
* Item three: The cover of The Washington Post's magazine last Sunday was headlined, "Is the Israel Lobby Too Powerful?" The idea that Bush-Cheney-Rice and Rumsfeld are manipulated by a bunch of second and third tier Jews in the Administration is a modern-day version of the notorious Protocols of the Elders of Zion which provided a text for Hitler and claimed that Jews ruled the world. But today it is entering the mainstream of liberal thought at an alarming speed.
Part of the reason this kind of anti-Israel, anti-American propaganda has traction is that people are woefully in the dark when it comes to the nature of the enemy we face.
Muslim and radical fanatics and haters of America and Israel operating in the universities and the press, along with their liberal fellow travelers, have been preaching the gospel that the Palestinians and the terrorists are actually victims of the imperialism of the West, and that their heinous acts against humanity are legitimate expressions of hopelessness and despair.
The David Horowitz Freedom Center is dedicated to combating these lies and defending America and Israel, the two pillars of Judaeo-Christian values and freedom in the world today.
Our website magazine, Frontpagemag.com, is devoted to reporting on the war at home and abroad, with a particular focus on the enemies of freedom in our own country who work day and night to undermine the war on terror. The Freedom Center has published hundreds of articles and dozens of books and pamphlets that confront these issues.
One of our publications is Big Lies: Demolishing the Myths of the Propaganda War Against Israel, which we have distributed to 300,000 individuals, including thousands of college students. It's short, readable, and packed with facts that give a true history of Israel and counteract the lies spread by the left.
As the Islamic war against the West intensifies it is urgent that our voice be heard. There is no comparable group that is so unflinching in its willingness to define what this war is about, so fearless in its determination to combat the appeasers and terrorist fellow-travelers in our own camp, and so tireless in its efforts to bring these truths to the widest possible audience.
To help me and the Freedom Center fight this war, we need your contribution to help us print, distribute and promote the antidote to the leftist appeasers and nay-sayers. Will you give a contribution to help? I need contributions of $25, $50, $100 or more, or whatever is possible for you to give. Any amount will help. Follow this link to give.
Every $25 contributor will receive a copy of the Big Lies booklet as well as another booklet, Why Israel Is the Victim in the Middle East. Every contributor of $50 or more will receive a copy of my book, Unholy Alliance: Radical Islam and the American Left. Every contributor of $100 or more will receive an autographed copy of Unholy Alliance.
Please respond right away. We need to get the Big Lies booklet out as soon as possible and to as many people as possible...especially to the media commentators who are shaping opinions, and to members of Congress who are so critical to America's policy on Israel.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Sincerely,
David Horowitz
P.S. Israel is part of a global war, the war of radical Islam against civilization. Right now Israel is doing the work of the rest of the civilized world by taking on the terrorists. It is not only for Israel's sake that we must get the facts out - it is for ourselves, America, for every free country in the world, and for civilization itself. Please respond today!
