#59,

Once done, do you think either side will have a problem turning on the other? Ala Hitler and Stalin…

Might not the left calculate that Islam is an easier target than a capitalist American constitutional republic that supports individual liberty?

Does anyone imagine that the hard left, not the liberal useful idiots mind you, would lack the requisite ruthlessness to deal with Islam? Especially as that Left would have ideological ties to both Russia and China…

Or that Islamic radicals, out of cultural ignorance, would have a tendency to underestimate the ruthlessness of the ‘godless atheists’ of the left?
