   From the Inside Flap   
   In this tour de force on the most important issue of our time, David   
   Horowitz, confronts the paradox of how so many Americans, including   
   the leadership of the Democratic Party, could turn against the War on   
   Terror. He finds an answer in a political Left that shares a view of   
   America as the "Great Satan" with America’s radical Islamic enemies.   
   This Left, which once made common cause with Communists, has now   
   joined forces with radical Islam in attacking America’s defenses at   
   home and its policies abroad. From their positions of influence in the   
   university and media culture, leftists have defined America as the   
   "root cause" of the attacks against it. In a remarkable exploration of   
   the "Mind of the Left," Horowitz traces the evolution of American   
   radicalism from its Communist past to its "anti-war" present. He then   
   shows how this Left was able to turn the Democratic Party presidential   
   campaign around and reshape its views on the War on Terror.   
      
   Horowitz’s Unholy Alliance, writes John Haynes, the noted historian of   
   American Communism, "is an insightful, brilliant examination of the   
   mental world of the radical left. Horowitz shows how today’s radicals,   
   unwilling to reflect on the internal flaws that destroyed Marxism-   
   Leninism from within, have embraced an all-consuming nihilism in its   
   place. This has led them to a hatred of American institutions and a   
   solidarity with Islamic terrorists that makes the radical left more   
   properly regarded as dangerous than loony."   
      
   Unholy Alliance is an eye-opening book that should unsettle   
   conventional assumptions and reveals why intellectuals and political   
   leaders who applaud Michael Moore are no laughing matter. As Harvey   
   Klehr, author of Venona: Decoding Soviet Espionage in America, writes,   
   "The world Communist movement may be moribund, but its habits of mind   
   and ideological fantasies have not disappeared. This is a fascinating   
   and depressing account."
