DESCRIPTION:The Fear Within: Spies, Commies, and American Democracy on Trial\nBook 
 Presentation by Scott Martelle\nScott Martelle in his important new work 
 looks at the massive witchhunts in the US more than 60 years ago. These 
 witchhunts, particularly against the Communist Party, shaped the labor 
 movement and American consciousness.  The primary goal of these 
 anti-communsit witchhunts was to destroy the labor movement of the 1930s 
 and 1940s, and it was prepetrated by Democrats and Republicans together.  
 Martelle looks at the trials and the hysteria and how it affected the 
 people of the United States. He also looks at parallels today in the 
 attacks on free speech, immigrants and Muslim Americans, particularly since 
 the 9/11 Inside Job.\nhttp://www.scottmartelle.com/works.htm\n\nThis is 
 posted in solidarity with all who resisted the horrifying anti-Communist 
 hysteria that was simply replaced by the anti-Muslim hysteria after the end 
 of the Soviet Union in 1991 and the 9/11 Inside Job as the pretext for war 
 and fascism to maximize profits of the capitalist class, the primary goal 
 of capitalism.  It is also posted in memory of Julius & Ethel Rosenberg, 
 executed June 19, 1953, for the false and phony charge of "conspiracy to 
 commit atomic espionage" so as to make Jew, Communist and traitor 
 synonymous to justify Wars of Anti-Communism, just as Nazi Germany 
 perpetrated Wars of Anti-Communism for the same private profit goal.  Never 
 forgive!  Never forget!\nSee
