What The Communitarians Stand Forby Niki Raapana, revised 12/04/05Communitarian QuotesAmitai Etzioni on July 26, 2003 in an interview with Afghan Mania in Germany. "The world needs a new global architecture, additional layers of governance, to deal with issues that neither nations nor traditional forms of intergovernmental organizations can cope with." Amitai Etzioni at September 7th, 2004 conference at the Hague titled, "Europe, A Beautiful Idea"
"The Communitarian Network is a coalition of individuals and organizations who have come together to shore up the moral, social, and political environment. We are a nonsectarian, nonpartisan, transnational association...The Communitarian Network investigates issues and policies such as the balance between rights and responsibilities in society, community justice, multiculturalism, the community's moral voice, and developing global society."

Kurland, President, Center for Economic and Social Justice, Presented at the Fifth Annual Conference of the Center for the Study of Islam and Democracy (CSID), Wyndham Washington Hotel, Washington, D.C., May 28-29, 2004. Intentional Community: An Index of Resources at Progressive Living.org. 262. "Nation in need of community values" by Amitai Etzioni in The London Times, (February 20, 1995), posted at The Communitarian Network. "Communitarian thinking is not an American import. Its roots sprout from ancient Greece and the Old and New Testaments.(I was trained by Martin Buber in Jerusalem.)While each society must evolve its own communitarian answers, the challenges are similar. Man and woman do not live by bread alone; it is unwise to believe that all we need is economic rehabilitation. We require our daily acts to be placed into a context of transcendent meaning and their moral import made clear." Progressive Policy Institute Overview Description. The Politics of Power: a Life History of the Party System explains the Third Way in Great Britain. The Stanford Encylopedia of Philosophy explains how it evolved:"Modern-day communitarianism began in the upper reaches of Anglo-American academia in the form of a critical reaction to John Rawls landmark 1971 book A Theory of Justice. Drawing primarily upon the insights of Aristotle and Hegel, political philosophers such as Alasdair MacIntyre, Michael Sandel, Charles Taylor and Michael Walzer disputed Rawls assumption that the principal task of government is to secure and distribute fairly the liberties and economic resources individuals need to lead freely chosen lives." (Note: Aristotle used logic, Hegel distorted logic, and Marx expanded on Hegel's distortion.)
More good quotes "Bush's inaugural address," said George Washington University professor Amitai Etzioni, a communitarian thinker, "was a communitarian text, full of words like 'civility,' 'responsibility' and 'community.' That's no accident. Bush's advisers consulted on the speech with Putnam." Washington Post Staff Writer Dana Milbank, February 01, 2001 "Needed: Catchword for Bush Ideology, 'Communitarianism' Finds Favor" "The President of the United States of America [Clinton] awards this National Humanities Medal to Robert N. Bellah for his efforts to illuminate the importance of community in American society. A distinguished sociologist and educator, he has raised our awareness of the values that are at the core of our democratic institutions and of the dangers of individualism unchecked by social responsibility."

"The First Amendment's disestablishment clause is not a foreign policy tool, but a peculiarly American conception. Just because the American government is banned from promoting religion within the United States does not mean that the State Department and the Pentagon cannot promote religion overseas in societies that are undergoing profound societal changes. This last point is crucial: Overseas we are participating as a key architect and builder of new institutions; we are in what social scientists call "the design business." This is quite distinct from what we do at home: shoring up a solid social structure designed two centuries ago, careful not to rock the foundations or undermine the pillars on which it stands. In Iraq, Afghanistan, and many other Third World countries, we participate in the ground-breaking, foundation-laying stage, one in which elements we can take for granted at home - such as a thriving religious life within civil society - must be provided." [emphasis added] Amitai Etzioni quoted on Publicradio.org.

Partial list of people associated with the Project For The New American Century. Thousands of communitarian programs and laws have been introduced into American communities, and hundreds of elected representatives embrace the new ideology. Communitarian law is the foundation for international communitarian sustainable development programmes under U.N. Local Agenda 21.
A third choice for Virginians The Virginian-Pilot © November 19, 2004. Communitarian Solutions. Communitarianism and the future of social policy by Gordon Hughs, The Open University. Communitarians balance national laws against the undefinable notion of an international "community." It eliminates U.S. Constitutional Law. U.S. law protects individuals from the state and the majority. Communitarians expand government authority over individuals and grant unrestricted power over individuals to a minority of malcontents. Also referred to as Civil Society (a freemason term) and The Third Way (a Marxist Platform), the entire philosophy is based on vague notions of what constitutes a "good society." The key ingrediant to all communitarian thinking is the use of undefinable words and phrases, Marxist concepts of morality, and conflicting "values." As with everything based in Marxist rhetoric, communitarians change their strategy and propaganda depending on the targeted nationals. The New Golden Rule: Community and Morality in a Democratic Society. - book reviews National Review, March 10, 1997 by John Fonte. "THERE is no doubt that the philosophical outlook called communitarianism has influenced politics in the West. Some of its major tenets have been advanced by Bill Clinton in America and Tony Blair in Britain. Described by its promoters as a "movement" (it's not: it has no popular support or mass membership), communitarianism is a public philosophy developed by a small coterie of academics who have attempted to recast American liberal-Left and European social-democratic ideologies into a new "centrist" mold." Update Oct 3, 2005 -- Where does the Communitarian Network stand on religion?
What interest does the Communitarian Network have in teaching their own version of a Bible Curriculum in American schools? What is the Texas Freedom Network, "a mainstream voice to counter the religious right"? Why does a keyword search for the term communitarian show nothing about it on their website? Their "about" page explains: "Founded in 1995, the Texas Freedom Network is a nonpartisan, grassroots organization of more than 23,000 religious and community leaders. Based in Austin, the Texas Freedom Network acts as the state's watchdog, monitoring far-right issues, organizations, money and leaders." Communitarianism is not nonpartisan (it's the Third Way) and as we've proven, it's definitely not "grassroots." So if they're not communitarians, why is the Communitarian Network featuring their research? Twisting Truth through Group Consensus Using the Bible to promote inter-faith "dialogue" and "common ground" by Berit Kjos, 2001 explores the connections between Charles Haynes and the United Nations and the tricky way the communitarians are enlisting Christian supporters. We'll be getting back to this whole religious aspect very shortly..it deserves a lot more attention. A lot of the links she used are gone but she provides some very easy to understand charts that compare the new global religion to the Bible. Then there's the Sanhedrin courts aspect Rabbi Adin Even-Israel Steinsaltz Elected to Head Sanhedrin 14:51 Jun 23, '05 / 16 Sivan 5765, By Ezra HaLevi, Israeli National News. "Also present at the meeting on Monday, though not seated in the 71-seat semi-circular row of chairs, was famed archaeologist Dr. Vendyl Jones. He is working with the Sanhedrin to establish a system of courts for non-Jews adhering to the Seven Laws of Noah, which the Torah obligates all of humanity to follow. One of those laws is to establish courts of justice. A high court has been established by the Sanhedrin for such purposes, and a subsidiary of that court will soon be established in the United States as well." [emphasis added] Sanhedrin Moves to Establish Council For Noahides 01:39 Sep 29, '05 / 25 Elul 5765, By Ezra HaLevi at IsraeliNationalNews.com. ""Never before in recorded history have B'nei Noach come together to be ordained by the Sanhedrin for the purpose of spreading Noahide observance of laws," Bar-Ron said. "This is the first critical step of bringing about the ultimate flowering of the brotherhood of mankind envisioned by Noach, the father of mankind." "The Seven Laws of Noah are: Shefichat damim - Do not murder. Gezel - Do not steal or kidnap. Avodah zarah - Do not worship false gods/idols. Gilui arayot - Do not be sexually immoral (engage in incest, sodomy, bestiality, castration and adultery) Birkat Hashem - Do not utter G-d's name in vain, curse G-d or pursue the occult. Dinim - Set up righteous and honest courts and apply fair justice in judging offenders and uphold the principles of the last five. Ever Min HaChai - Do not eat a part of a live animal. For more information email the Sanhedrin's secretary at: dbtc@actco.com" Is Jesus Christ considered a false god or idol according to Avodah zarah under the Seven Laws of Noah? And then there's the Catholic opinions, some of whom are also communitarians "In other words, prayer rugs can be purchased with federal funds to accommodate suspected Muslim terrorists in Guantanamo Bay, and Jewish chapels can be built with federal monies, but Christian kids can't sing 'Silent Night' in the classroom. Got it everyone?" JEWISH CHAPEL BUILT WITH FEDERAL FUNDS: NO OUTCRY FROM ADL, ACLU or AU, by Catholic League president William Donohue, September 15, 2005. "In a passage that is notable for its vagueness, Azevedo says that the CEBs should be the basis for a new communitarianism that rejects the two "bankrupt" models and systems "that are now polarizing the world," capitalism and Marxist socialism. This communitarianism is to be "a dialectical synthesis, a new creation, superimposing itself on thesis and antithesis rather than retrieving them." The passage illustrates the controversy in Latin American Catholicism between those who continue to endorse the "third-position-ism" (tercerismo) of Catholic social teaching and those (including all liberation theologians that I know of) who believe that only socialism can be in accord with Christian values." Theology Today-Basic Ecclesial Communities in Brazil: The Challenge of a New Way of Being Church By Marcello deC. Azevedo, S.J.Washington, D.C., Georgetown University Press, 1987. 304 Pp. Obviously, this will require a lot more study since at least one of the key players in this nonpartisan dialectic is on both "sides" of the fence. Family Research Council President Tony Perkins endorses and assists the National Council on Bible Curriculum, while the founder of the Family Research Council, Gary Bauer (Our American Values), was a keynote speaker at the Stand Up for Israel Awards dinner of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews on Wednesday, September 28th in Washington, DC in the ballroom of the JW Marriott hotel. "Bauer gave the best speech of the evening followed in rank order of performance by Joe Lieberman, Eckstein, Guiliani and dethroned House GOP majority leader Tom DeLay "how was your day-I hope better than mine."// Bauer was trenchant on the threat of Islamofacism and the importance of the steadfast friendship between the US and Israel. His send up on the founding Pilgrim fathers anthem of "the two shining cities on the hill"-was magnificent. His closing clarion call resonating with the IFCJ audience: "The way to defeat an enemy who worships death is to rededicate ourselves to a God who tells us to choose life ... He is the author of our liberty." Then there's the whole quietly implemented Judaic (Talmudic) Law Institute issue combined with the much publicized ACLU v. the Ten Commandments decisions just handed down by the U.S. Supreme Court. It all fits neatly into the communitarian agenda, almost like it's part of the same propaganda package. (No wonder I avoided the religious dialectical conflicts for so long.) What is Racial Communitarianism? Daughters of France, Daughters of Allah by Marie Brenner in Vanity Fair, April 2004: "A new code word for anti-Semitism has entered the language— "communautarisme"—and Ramadan has been instrumental in its spread. Last October he submitted an editorial to Le Monde and the leftist newspaper Libération entitled ³Critique of the (New) Communitarian Intellectuals²—meaning Jews. To Americans, communautarisme may sound benign, but it is in fact a new way of labeling and identifying separateness—who is a Jew, who is a Muslim—and that concept goes against every principle of the French Republic. Both newspapers turned Ramadan's editorial down, but he promptly posted it on the Web site Oumma.com, the most important Muslim Web site in the country. It read in part, "There is a phenomenon which muddies the facts. For several years (even before the second intifada), French Jewish intellectuals, who until then had been considered universalist thinkers, started from the national as well as international point of view to develop analyses that were more and more influenced by a communitarian concern, which tends to minimize the importance of defending universal principles of equality and justice." The communitarians cited included some of France¹s most distinguished intellectuals‹philosophers Alain Finkielkraut and Bernard-Henri Lévy and former health minister Bernard Kouchner. During his debate with Ramadan, Sarkozy confronted him on this point. ³My text is not anti-Semitic,² Ramadan said. ³I condemn anti-Semitism with dire resolve.² On the subject of the stoning of women, he was less conclusive: ³I have asked ... for a moratorium to enable a true debate among Muslims,² he said, which caused a furor in the French press."

The Individual and the Community by Tibor R. Machan Published in The Freeman: Ideas on Liberty - September 1991. "Communitarians wish to place community and individual on a collision course, saying there is some kind of balance that is needed between the rights of individuals and the rights of the community. But if we consider that “community” means simply a lot of other people than oneself, this makes for majority rule. And if we consider that such other people usually leave it to a few who will speak out in their behalf, we will have a few com munity representatives dictating to the rest of us what we must do and what our “responsibilities” are. " The New DemocratsThe New Democrats are Third Way communitarians. Here's the list of New Dems in American politics. President Bill Clinton embraced Communitarian values and was elected on a Communitarian platform (although few Americans know this about him). The New Covenant: Responsibility and Rebuilding the American Community, Remarks to Students at Georgetown University by Governor Bill Clinton on October 23, 1991.We post updates on Senator Bayh's Third Way Senate bipartisan group at Bayh Watch. American historian Anton Chaitkin explains the New Democrats/DLC in Why the Democratic Party Failed To Function in This Crisis. The Third Way enjoys favor from both parties. (This partly explains why Democrats like Hilary Clinton and John Kerry support exporting violent overthrowing of foreign governments, and Bush and leading Right Wing Republicans support formerly Leftist programs like Community Service Laws and Faith-Based Initiatives. Senator Bayh's "new" Third Way bipartisan group includes Dem and Republican Senators, and it expands daily. Most American Mayors have embraced Communitarian values. We will experience more confusion as to what each party represents as American voters get closer to the next election, and to the final global solution.) Presidential Supporters of CommunitarianismU.S. Presidents Johnson, Carter, Clinton, Bush Sr. and Bush Jr. helped former USSR President Mikhail Gorbachev (of Green Cross Intl.) and German Prime Minister Gerhard Shroeder fully incorporate the British Empire's (Rothschild's Bank) and Prime Minister Tony Blair's Labour-Zionist-Fabian agenda for rebuilding the world:Clinton-Gore Rebuilding Communities Bush Rebuilding Communities Americans unknowingly adopted the "softer face of communism" under DLC candidate William Jefferson Clinton in 1992.

Community Involvement and Communitarian Theory by James Arthur. In the ACL's opinionHere's the ACL's Orwellian version of the communitarian's new dictionary.We are convinced the current communitarian solution is based on unreasonable premises that created a false dilemma leading to a false conclusion. There is no factual basis or one shread of evidence to support the communitarian theory that humans and society are "constantly evolving." The only verifiable examples of government directed, responsive communitarian societies are the totalitarian states participating in the globalist movement toward creating a world justice system. Socialist Great Britain, communist controlled China, KGB controlled Russia, and "democratic Israel and Iraq" are the leading examples of the necessary changes required under the bogus Hegelian communist theory of natural social conflicts leading humanity directly to Third Way solutions. (This ACL concept is explained in The Historical Evolution of Communitarian Thinking.) President Bush says we are working with Russia and China in ways we never have before, and he calls them both "free societies with the power to lift lives" (Bush State of the Union Speech Jan 2002). Ex-President Clinton told us in 1994, "In the last two years, despite the atmosphere of contentiousness and all the difficulty, more of the DLC agenda (defining the Third Way) was enacted into law and will make a difference in the lives of the American people than almost any political movement in any similar time period in the history of the United States." Many of the DLC's programs and projects have been implemented since 1993, since Clinton created the President's Council on Sustainable Development (PCSD). The PCSD "answered the call" from the Earth Summit at Rio de Janiro in 1992 to use sustainable development laws to implement Local Agenda 21, which would eventually completely eliminate standard U.S. property and privacy rights. Even more incredible, the PCSD was a commitment to replace the U.S. Constitution with the anti-American Earth Charter. Throughout the 1990s, one by one, U.S. federal, state, county and municipal agencies all across America changed their mission statements to support the United Nations ideal called sustainable development. When U.S. agencies adopted their new mission, they gave up our national power to U.N. international sustainable development law, referred to by U.N. speakers as "the environmental Ten Commandments." Third Way laws are based on communitarian ideology that balances the U.S. Bill of Rights against the Communist Manifesto and the Talmud. Before you discount us as conspiracy theorists, try first looking just a little bit further, because ALL of this is easily verifiable, not only via ACL links to internet sources, but also by asking your own local public officals for their mission statements. If any government agency uses the phrases "sustainable, safe and livable, quality of life, prevention or (especially) holistic," you can trace the agency (and often the funding) directly to the communists in the U.N. Use your public disclosure laws to do a little checking around your own area. The harsh truth is, this new law is changing the entire face of formerly free America, perhaps forever. Constitutional U.S. laws that "protect and maintain individual rights" are being balanced into oblivion by communitarians, and independent America is losing its heritage against the bogus theory of world communism. The communitarian "solution" is to CHANGE national laws and overrule national constitutions, and they claim the world is ready for their more moral assumption of power. Yet, and this is the part that makes the whole thing look like a stupid conspiracy theory, nobody is supposed to know it's happening, and the communitarians NEVER tell the regular citizens about it. We're never going to be asked to vote on it or be allowed inside elite academia and invited to debate the new laws. Most Americans really have no idea about the DLC "agenda," and it is the rare American who can pronounce it, let alone explain the theory behind it. These changes to our reinvented government never make it to a public ballot after a full public disclosure and (possibly heated) debate. The communitarians can not withstand laymen's scrutiny, so their modus operandi is usually to discredit the scruntinizers as conspiracy theorists. (In the ACL's case, after all our documentation, they just ignore our direct attempts for public debate. We have no idea why the Communitarian Network links to us, or why Etzioni took us off his blog links.) The communitarians work behind the scenes. Elite communitarian "thinkers" quietly slide their new laws inside projects and programs few regular folks will think (or dare) to question. And, just so you won't look any closer, (or open your mouth to ask one dumb question) the communitarians mask their fascist programs behind all kinds of lovely phrasing. The new phrases work so well that if you do speak up with a debateable question, it means you don't want to live in a "safe and healthy community." And since everyone has to agree in order to reach communitarian consensus, you will be shunned and excluded from the decision making "councils" that control the new districts. Go ahead and try, but the shifty communitarians will NEVER debate you because their programs are based entirely in a lie called communism. Communitarianism is the synthesis in the Hegelian-Marxist dialectic. The Communitarian Platform is presented as the solution to the Marxist induced conflicts between the far-left and the far-right. Like their communist fathers, communitarians mask their fascist-totalitarian agenda behind lovely phrases like "civil society" and The Third Way. For many people, communitarianism is nothing more than an academic moral discussion. But in fact the communitarians have been advising our U.S. presidents since 1979, and their Marxist theories have been balancing national laws since 1993.
