Janet Levy – Almost forty years ago, KGB defector Yuri Bezmenov warned of an assault on the West via leftist ideological subversion. Borrowing from a classic Sesame Street routine, he asked American leaders to unplug the bananas from their ears. Few heard him. So, our enemies have been able to erode respect for the sacred ideals of the West — individual rights, free enterprise, law and order, national sovereignty and limited government. They have enmeshed us in a non-kinetic World War III. Most citizens of democratic societies don’t even realize it’s taking place.
Over the decades, the fronts in this invisible war have multiplied. This is in keeping with Unrestricted Warfare, a 1999 book on strategy by two Chinese air force colonels that updated Sun Tzu’s maxims on overwhelming the enemy with a profusion of strategies and fronts. Among those identifying to Americans is Kenneth Abramowitz, founder of a remarkable organization called Save The West and author of The Multifront War: Defending America from Political Islam, China, Russia, Pandemics and Racial Strife.
