Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

In this original investigative work, the bestselling authors of The Manchurian President expose one of the most important untold stories of the decade: how a nexus of radical socialist groups have seized political power, shaped Obama’s presidential agenda, and threaten the very future of our country.

For decades, a radical socialist movement has been quietly infiltrating the major institutions of American power: our schools, our military, our economy, our media, and Congress itself. This progressive Red Army is an organized network consisting of numerous specialized groups that target specific policy areas while cooperating more broadly in a concerted decades-long campaign to transform America.

Now, for the first time, investigative reporters Aaron Klein and Brenda J. Elliott not only expose the key players, organizations, and relationships in this radical network but chart their spheres of influence, their nefarious objectives, their role in shaping Barack Obama’s agenda, and their long-term plans for the nation.

Among some of their finds, Klein and Elliott reveal the existence of a powerful “Marxist-socialist” bloc in Congress (explicitly formed as an arm of the Democratic Socialists of America) and examine its far-reaching goals in policy areas that affect all Americans, including the complete socialization of health care and comprehensive immigration reform, which seeks to change the very nature of the American electorate. The authors expose the shocking misinformation campaign behind Obama’s economic policies, discussing the crafting of the massive “stimulus” legislation, as well as his plans for future economic “reform.”

In two chapters that every American must read, entirely new information is laid bare on the left’s unprecedented assault on our already over-liberalized education system. And in just one astonishing discovery, Klein and Elliott bring to light how federal stimulus money was used to fund an education group tied to radical educator (and unrepentant Pentagon bomber) Bill Ayers.

The authors also expose the multipronged policy offensive aimed at disarming America by emboldening our enemies within and without, spurning traditional allies, subjecting us to the authority of foreign tribunals, and systematically dismantling the U.S. military. The authors also detail how elements of the news media not only collude with these radical groups, but are in some cases members of the very same extremist organizations they ought to be investigating.

This radical network runs far deeper than the Obama administration and, if not stopped, will far outlast his presidency. From health care and manufacturing to immigration and environmental policy, Red Army documents how these radical groups are working to spread America’s wealth and transform the country into their vision of a socialist utopia.

5.0 out of 5 stars Full of factual details October 30, 2011

By Sanford Aranoff

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase

This is an important book, discussing details of people and organizations dedicated to anti-American Progressive ideas. It gives vast number of facts and details. As an example, the discussion of Panetta discusses his dangerous ideas. In 1991, I was a computer scientist working for Computer Science Corporation in Monterey, CA. The project was to develop a database of weather data from all points on earth, including oceans. The government was in daily control, and the project was terribly inefficient. I visited my Congressman, Leon Panetta, and complained. My impression was that his office was very busy, but nonsense busy. He just brushed me off, causing me to lose all respect for him. I am certain that anything that he is in charge will fail. Klein's book gives important details about Panetta. Now I understand why he acted this way. His goal was big government, even if it meant things not getting done and problems not being solved. He did not care if this database, vital for weather predictions, would succeed. All that he cared for was big government.

Some reviewers complained that the book could have discussed this or that. Of course. The point is the details for anyone wishing to fight the evil Progressive movement destroying America, my country. This book will help voters fight for freedom.

This book is full of factual details. We need to understand the thinking of Progressives, which is dangerously illogical. Rational thinking requires two things: The thoughts must make sense starting from clearly stated principles. Secondly, the conclusions must agree with empirical evidence. This is the nature of the scientific revolution of the past several centuries. See for example Rational Thinking, Government Policies, Science, and Living.

Progressivism is a rejection of the scientific revolution. The ideas do not make any sense, and there is no evidence to support this nonsense. The book Red Army gives many important facts helpful to anyone who wishes to contribute to the future of America, returning our country to the ideals of freedom that launched our country and have been successful making it great for Americans and, consequently, the rest of the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Red Army October 26, 2011

By Donbo

Format:Hardcover

This is a great book, provides great detail into how the progressives are using the teachings of Salinsky to bring this country down and right in the center of it is Obama. Look for progressives to really attack this book as it exposes so much of their agenda.

5.0 out of 5 stars Groundbreaking expose of Progressive Socialist Movement and take-over tactics October 31, 2011

By Bert Korn

Format:Hardcover

RED ARMY is a ground-breaking expose of the Progressive socialist take-over of America, including the Democratic Party, by Aaron Klein, today's top young investigative journalist.

Since the 2008 campaign, Klein has been breaking stories (from Israel) about Barack Obama's ties to Bill Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, Louis Farrakhan, Rashid Khalidi and other left-wing radicals. When the head of Hamas in Gaza "endorsed" Obama for president, it was with Klein on the John Batchelor Show, and the issue was debated between Obama and McCain in the 3rd 2008 Presidential Debate. Klein is a rising journalistic presence on ABC Radio and FNC, besides his roles as senior writer at WorldNetDaily. He writes only news stories, not opinion pieces.

RED ARMY is a step up for Klein's book-length works, of which this is the fourth in 5 years, because Barricade is an imprint of Harper/Collins.

In this work, Klein shows how the Progressive socialists - through a combination of big-union takeovers, George Soros money, leftist think-tanks and advocacy groups, the Progressive and Black Caucuses in Congress, Alinsky-inspired voter activists and street agitation groups, and mass media spin control and social networking technology, have reached the highest levels of power to effect their "complete transformation of America."
