Product Description
In the Presence of Our Enemies has been meticulously researched, containing facts from years of Congressional investigations, as well as authoritative books written by historians and participants alike of the 20 Century''''s assault on the unique form of government fashioned through, as George Washington described, "a miracle at Philadelphia." To achieve this destruction and planned replacement with a socialist society amalgamated into a global government, it is first necessary to destroy traditional morality, a campaign conducted through every avenue of communication, with particular focus on textbooks and schools. Their legacy marches relentlessly onward.Meet the sociologists, the psychiatrists, the ''''educators,'''' moral degenerates, who banded together from countries around the world focusing on the redistribution of American wealth, and changing the culture which gave them birth. They gained entry into American Schools, colleges, legislative halls, and their descendants still promote a Fabian Socialist World Society supported by American taxes. Nothing has changed since Soviet leader Nikta Khrushchev in 1957, told us what was planned: "I can prophesy that your grandchildren in America will live under socialism...Your grandchildren will....not understand how their grandparents did not understand the progressive nature of socialist society...."

About the Author
Ellen McClay, writer and researcher, now living in Arizona, devoted years to elements of the so-called "cold war." She was a popular speaker and sought-after lecturer on radio and television. Some of her school years were in the Boston area, during an era redolent with the traditions of the Pilgrims, the Liberty Tree, the Boston Tea Party, the battle of Bunker Hill, the ''shot fired heard round the world.'' Inspired by these historical events, for a number of years she wrote monthly legislative analyses, appearing before legislative bodies: local, state and national. She maintains the rewriting of American textbooks which eliminate the truth of U. S. history plus the promotion of "progressive education," the painting of the United States as the "great Satan," were important and too often overlooked elements of the war against Western civilization.Professionally, she served in management positions over more than twenty years in the health food industry, while also associate editor of a health food magazine, contributing feature stories, as well as a regular column, Along the Bumpy Road to Health, plus freelance articles in other magazines. Writing and narrating a TV series locally with a focus on UNESCO, prompted the writing of In the Presence of Our Enemies, her second book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Why we are losing our country, the trumph of Communism in the 21st Century!, July 12, 2008

By	Gene Birkeland (cottonwood, AZ United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The untold story of how American schools were seized by the left during the founding of the U.N. and why society is falling apart now, all these years later. American children are being molded into citizens of the world and taught to despise the origins of the United States in the Revolutionary War, from the time of entering school. This was done through the rewriting of the nation's textbooks, even as sex ed was expanded to fill the gap. UNESCO particularly did not like the exemplary character of George Washington lest children should want to pattern themselves on him, so he was expunged from memor. Not a "professional" educator or historian, the book is written from her participation in Los Angeles in the early '50's to throw UNESCO out of the schools. Apparently successful as the school board voted it out, still the teaching went on, because UNESCO is not a subject, but an attitude and philosophy.
