Diana West: The Rebuttal, Part I



As I understand it, Diana West was studying the Islamic Infiltration of the highest corridors of our government, when she stumbled across some information about Soviet/Communist Infiltration, and decided to follow that route.

Thus, she wrote American Betrayal, which details how the Soviet Communists swayed American policy during from the 1930's onward.

It happened then, and it's happening again. Now, it is Islamic Infiltration.

He who does not know his history is doomed to repeat it, and thus we do.

From Breitbart:

Calumnious charges against my new book, American Betrayal: The Secret Assault on Our Nation’s Character (St. Martin’s Press), originated in a review that appeared at FrontPage Magazine on August 7, 2013. The 7,000-word review by Ronald Radosh was titled “McCarthy on Steroids” (FrontPage editor David Horowitz wrote the title). The Radosh review is referenced as source material for a series of attack-pieces that followed at FrontPage Magazine, Pajamas Media, The American Thinker, National Review, andelsewhere. 
In one of three follow-up pieces Radosh published, he described the original review as a “take-down.” David Horowitz, in one of two pieces written about American Betrayal, wrote, “She should not have written this book. 
Who says that and why? 
I have since come to understand the “take-down” of my book and the ad hominem attacks on my person in terms of a scorched earth policy to preserve and protect the conventional narrative as promulgated by mainstream academia. 
"But FrontPage is a conservative site," I can hear people say. 
This stopped me, too, at first. Then I realized that the books Radosh cites in his “take-down”--not to debate my ideas, but to impugn them--are written by academics from Yale, Harvard, and Stanford. That’s liberal academia. Another source Radosh draws heavily from is a British historian and BBC documentary-maker whose works appear on PBS. More conventional (read: liberal) consensus. 
My book threatens that consensus with arguments that are densely and meticulously documented. My sources are listed in 944 endnotes that draw from a bibliography that conventional historians consistently ignore. Specifically, I draw from the vast bibliography of Soviet espionage and infiltration that conventional historians ignore when writing World War II and even Cold War history. Indeed, the books Radosh cites omit or barely reference the same bibliography American Betrayal draws upon. 
GO READ THE WHOLE THING.
