The Unlikely Alliance Between Radical Islam and Marxism United Against America

The Enemy of My Enemy: Understanding an Unusual Coalition

The left has formed an alliance between radical Islamic theocratic dictatorships and radical Marxist ideas.

The one thing the left has in common and the one thing Iran has in common is they both hate America. They hate America for different reasons, but they both hate America. This shared antipathy enables them to form an alliance around their mutual opposition, despite having fundamentally incompatible worldviews on nearly every other issue.
