Some hours ago word got out that Israel had commenced ground operations into northern Gaza. I doubt this is the real start of it; they are probably just going for position and also testing Hamas’ resolve: just how much fight is there in them. There might not be as much as people think: Arabs have never made great soldiers. They are good at irregular operations and taking advantage of an opponent’s weaknesses or mistakes, but in the main their tactical ability and willingness to stand and fight have been limited ever since they emerged from the deserts of Arabia. How long will Hamas fighters stand in the rubble when death stares them in the face? We’re going to find out; but my bet is a lot of the tunnels Hamas has dug are for escape…a way out once the IDF appears. To completely defeat them, the IDF will have to corner them in places where they have no choice but to stand and be destroyed, or surrender.
However it goes, this will be an extended process and Israel will take her losses; if even some of Hamas stands and fights then digging such people out of rubble has always been a difficult process. But it can be done; we lost a lot on Iwo Jima where the Japanese were splendidly dug in but in the end our Marines killed the Japanese at a 3:1 ratio…which is a reversal of normal offensive losses against dug in opponents. You just have to be good and apply firepower liberally.
Immediately upon the news getting out, the Left sprang into action to try to save Hamas – calls for a ceasefire and the usual drivel about an Israeli genocide in Gaza filled social media. This is simply vile but it is also in the nature of things. Make no mistake about it: many people admire what Hamas did on October 7th. And I’m not just talking Muslim Jihadists; plenty on the secular Left in the West clearly feel that the Hamas attackers were he-men, doing what the pathetic, sniveling Western Left only dreams about doing. They are now rising to defend Hamas because Hamas are their heroes. They look forward to stopping the IDF so their guys can do it again.
But in a larger sense, the whole West is really responsible for this state of affairs. I’ve talked many times about the French war in Algeria in the 1950’s and the longer I think about it, the more watershed that conflict becomes. The harbinger of the modern world. While the West flattered itself that post-WWII it had created a rules-based global order where social democracy under their guidance would rule the world, what was really happening was a revival of savagery not seen since the Vandals of the 5th century or Tamerlane’s hordes in the 14th. And it all really started in Algeria.
Sure, there were signs and portents before this – and Hitler’s whole program was based on a belief that savagery would beat civilized weaklings. This was wrong, as he found out just before that bullet ripped through his skull: savagery works against weaklings, civilized or not. It doesn’t work against the brave…and so Easy Company drank Goering’s booze on Hitler’s patio. Hitler had misjudged the time; had he held fire until a decade later, he might have pulled it off. But, then again, it took Hitler and his war to bring about the triumph of the cowards in the West.
Oh, they were there before WWII! Various writers and artists, civil servants and educators; especially in England and France. Basically ridiculing the notions of patriotism and bravery. Mostly, of course, because they were neither patriotic nor brave and so to get the world where their like were on top, they had to play their part in tearing down the old order. And they did – and by the post-WWII world, they were the people in charge of passing out degrees and awarding prizes; and they naturally rewarded their like – who between 1945 and 1965 wormed their way deeply into all institutions. Most of them were to one degree or another Marxists just as most of them were … well, lets just say non-traditional in their sexual attitudes.
It was these people, ensconced in editorial offices, college administrations, entertainment, departments of government, who essentially sabotaged any fight against barbarism. And after WWII they became dominant because it appeared that their class had slain the Nazi beast. It hadn’t; it was a lot of average Joe’s and Jane’s throughout the world who had saved the Ruling Class’ bacon after they nearly handed the world to Hitler. But on VJ day, it looked like the pinheads had done it, and so they carried into the post-war world a sense that they knew what they were doing and it was good. They did, at least in part, know what they were doing – but it wasn’t what was advertised and it was all bad.
Here’s how it would go, time and time again: savages attack. Civilized soldiers respond. The leaders of the Ruling Class pitch a fit about the civilized response. On and on like that. Never, of course, giving more than a passing mention of the savagery except to justify it on their way to tearing apart those trying to stop it. And, in my view, it really got rolling in Algeria.
No matter what complaints some Algerians had about the French – and there were significant complaints to be made – the FLN used absolute barbarism as their primary method of warfare. While at times they would try an attack on a French military target, most of the time what they were doing was going after civilians. French and Algerian. The French for obvious reasons, the Algerians because many of them wanted nothing to do with the FLN. Algerian rebels set bombs in stores; tortured people to death; raped; mutilated. Nothing France had ever done remotely justified such savagery – but the FLN made the bet that they could do this and provoke a French response which would eventually get the upper reaches of French society to give in. In this they were completely correct. As the French army set about the FLN they had to do some quite brutal things of their own (but never as brutal as the FLN did). That was the nature of the fight; that is what the FLN wanted. And they only way to defeat them was to quite ruthlessly go after the enemy.
And here’s the kicker: it worked. The French army won the war. The FLN had alienated a large segment of the native Algerian population (more Algerians served in the French military – by far – than ever served in the FLN) while the French army had pushed them deep into the margins of Algeria, there to be eventually hunted and exterminated. But while the French army was doing this, back home the voices of the cowardly started to dominate. How could we? Aren’t we better than this? Can’t we negotiate? On and on like that – until, politically, the fight could no longer be sustained and France teetered on the brink of Civil War. By the time France called in De Gaulle to rescue the State he saw as his only option to scuttle the French effort in Algeria. And so it was done: the whole country was turned over to the savages…who went on a rampage against anyone in Algeria who hadn’t supported them while a couple million people fled to France.
And that was the lesson the world learned; more importantly, what the savages learned. The more brutal and cruel you are, the more the leaders of the West will justify your actions and undercut their own efforts to fight you. Its all just been a progression from that. And even now, faced with what happened 10/7 (it really was quite horrific) we’re still holding back. Our government is urging restraint. Other Western governments are calling for a ceasefire which would hand outright victory to Hamas. Even the Israelis are going as gentle as they can…perhaps too gentle. We’ll know in a few days if that is the case.
For heaven’s sake: they raped women to death and cut off the heads of babies! If this doesn’t call forth the West’s manhood, what will? It isn’t a matter of becoming cruel like them – we are not beasts – but of becoming quite ruthless about getting after them. We know that civilians are going to die. The enemy wants that. It is just part of their plan: they don’t care about human life. The children of Gaza are just a prop in a morality play to them. The more of them killed, the better. Getting at the enemy will mean going through those the enemy places in front. It is sad. It is terrible. It must be done. And no man should tremble at it: once it is done, there won’t be anyone around who will either cut off an Israeli baby’s head, or use a Palestinian baby as a shield. It is good for the babies of both people that the enemy is utterly destroyed. That is what should be on our minds.
This might well be our last stand; our last chance to stand firm against barbarism, and maybe one day even start pushing it back. I hope the IDF gets the job done, as distasteful as I know it will be for them. You can bet that if I were a 20 year old Israeli the last thing I’d want to do is comb through the rubble of Gaza looking for psychotic killers. But I hope that if I were a 20 year old Israeli, I’d have the courage to do what is necessary…and I hope we here in the USA rediscover that courage.

We’re going to find out; but my bet is a lot of the tunnels Hamas has dug are for escape…a way out once the IDF appears.
The Israelis may have an answer for that.
This sounds like a bigger version of what I use to block rodent access to my buildings, and for the same purpose. I had thought of blocking the tunnels but hadn’t remembered that there are multiple access points. Seems to me that if a household has a tunnel access those people have no right to complain when their house is leveled.
I just wonder it if would be possible to pump some kind of gas, whether lethal or just annoying or even just colored as a signal, under high pressure, into these tunnels. See colored mist coming out of a house, you know there is a tunnel access in there. The sponge bombs sound pretty effective, though they clearly need to fine-tune the detonation process. As I have posted, the Israelis did a lot of research into non-lethal crowd control, and I once read an extensive article on some of their results. My favorite was the “skunk juice” which is such a foul odor it almost always causes instantaneous vomiting and it can’t be washed off. ( I always thought we should send spray drones over riots in the United States and spray this stuff on the thugs involved. Ruin some nice expensive North Face hoodies and make the people unwelcome in any houses or hotels or airplanes and take some of the fun out of it. Make Soros, et al, have to keep buying new riot clothes for the troops.) But I love the idea of sending remote-controlled spray robots into tunnels and then backing them back out as they saturate the walls and floors with this skunk juice.
This administration is so embarrassing. It’s as if everyone in America in position of power is from some Harvard faculty lounge implementing their college thesis on how the world should work. Every time I hear that highly effeminate Antony Blinken mention the “rules based order”, I cringe. Only a faculty member would think this sounds smart. There is no rules based order and more than half the countries in the world don’t give a shit about it. This is just some false construct they believe in, much like climate change and systemic racism.
The West’s problem is that we live in a delusional faculty lounge based world. We need to ground ourselves back in reality and God.
The western media is HIGHLY irresponsible
Trail of destruction left by Israel’s night of rage: Hundreds of buildings in Gaza are turned to rubble by airstrike blitz with IDF troops still inside enclave in ‘rolling start’ to invasion as more tanks line up on border
And here’s the first paragraph:
Images are beginning to trickle out of the Palestinian occupied territory on Saturday following a complete communications blackout that has seen civilians, journalists and aid agencies left in the dark without electricity, internet or phone
It’s as if Israel just exploded in rage and started bombing these poor unsuspecting people who are just trying live a peaceful life. Note the “Palestinian occupied territory” comment … well who in the hell is occupying it??? Palestinians are, that’s who, you fucking morons.
OT, but how refreshing is this?
Johnson could be a transformative Speaker, especially if we keep the House in 2024. And I had to laugh at this headline because no doubt it was meant to be disparaging, but truth be known, Mike is spot on with this comment …
Speaker Mike Johnson claimed legalizing gay marriage would lead to people marrying their PETS and to PEDOPHILES demanding equal wedding rights
Just 10 years or so now into legalizing “gay marriage”, we have public parades of gay nudity, drag queens shoving their junk into children’s faces, fake non binary freaks dehumanizing themselves, and men who want to be women. I can only imagine what the next ten years will bring.
People aren’t yet marrying their pets but they are having sex with people pretending to be animals. Baby steps……..
Worse than “drag queens shoving their junk into children’s faces” is the fact that the mothers of those children took them to the event and stand there laughing as their children are subjected to what, in other circumstances, would be child abuse. Worse than “public parades of gay nudity” are the photos of parents watching this with their children and knowing that some parents actually made the decision to expose their children to graphic degenerate sex acts.
We barely heard of Johnson till he became Speaker, but evidently he has been a strong and quiet voice for conservatism for quite some time. We already know about Jim Jordan and his courageous stands as he has pursued truth and justice through House hearings and testimony. We know about Jim Banks and we are seeing a rising star in Harriet Hageman. While the antics of Boebert and Greene may be annoying, they do call attention to important issues and can’t be bullied into silence. Donalds is great. I think we probably have a lot more quiet heroes than we realize, but we need to elect more like them.
We have a young and strong conservative bench. Compare that to the Dems … AOC? Hakeem Jeffries? Or my favorite that Mfume guy. He’s a real genius lol

An interesting science fiction plot would be the flipping of today’s infantile fatuous British population with the one that survived the Battle of Britain, to see how today’s weenies would handle real adversity and how long the brave and steadfast Brits of the 30s and 40s would put up with the insanity visited upon the nation today.
Mike Pence Calls It Quits in His Bid for the White House in 2024
Mike is setting a good example, and I will follow it by withdrawing my application to be on the U.S Olympic Ski Team. Now that Mike has shown us how important it is to truthfully evaluate a chance to succeed and then withdraw gracefully, it’s easier for me to admit my shot at the ski team had pretty much the same chance of success as his presidential bid, so I will reluctantly—albeit gracefully—step aside.
Just a reminder that even abject stupidity and toxicity can be funny: And yes, I did laugh, as it got funnier and funnier.

Questions that can’t be answered in the Brave New World of Leftist America
Malone has a great collection today.
Such as this, which should be on billboards and campaign literature all over the country.
And the part about Dragon Fruit has me convinced to plant some when I get back to Florida after Thanksgiving. As a high-desert or mountain Westerner, I am amazed at how fast things grow in SW Florida. I have a huge avocado tree that was started from a seed from a neighbor’s tree just a few years ago and I am going to have to cut back all my fruit trees as they have recovered from Hurricane Ian with a vengeance.
Excellent article:
The Founders made one crucial mistake—their “limited government” ideal has now run head-on into the historical reality of the human lust for power. The Democratic Party in America is a believer in the Leftist, socialist, totalitarian government lie. They want power. Totalitarian power. And they are doing everything they can, and too successfully, in destroying the system set up by America’s Founders. Our Constitution was so superbly written that, indeed, the Democrats often struggle to get around it to obtain the power they crave. But human desire for power is one of the greatest realities of history. And no philosophy, no matter how well conceived and constructed, has been, or ever will, counteract and defeat it. Our Founders’ efforts were the best, by far, ever attempted. But those efforts are now being burned on the altar of human megalomania. Philosophy has once again met history.
Yep. But, also, lessons learned, right?
We now can, if we obtain power, plaster over some of the gaps in the system.
Some of the fixes are obvious: An armed population being necessary for a free people, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed under any circumstances. Each State shall maintain a Militia of no less than ten thousand adult citizens per State which may not be called into Federal service except during a declared state of war with the cost of providing all necessary military equipment to the Militia being borne by the federal government.
Others will take a bit more thought: we obviously want to retain the First Amendment but we have to craft it in a way that it doesn’t work out to a suicide pact. My first pass at it:
Congress shall make no law establishing a religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof in any public or private place; or abridging the freedom of speech with the understanding that no person or entity has a right to issue demonstrable falsehoods; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
The others:
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, and against government data collection, searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue or data be collected, but upon probable cause with benefit of doubt given to refusal to issue a warrant, supported by public Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, the persons or things to be seized, or the data to be collected.
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be charged with perjury unless there is an underlying criminal charge, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property prior to conviction in court; nor shall private property be taken for government use, without just compensation.
Excessive bail shall not be required, nor shall any fine or forfeiture be more than one fourth of the convict’s net assets however obtained, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.
The enumerated rights in the Constitution are the bare minimum to be secured under law. When in doubt the government must construe any assertion of rights in favor of the people.
Power resides with the people and the powers not explicitly delegated to the government via the Constitution are prohibited.
All persons born to a citizen of the United States are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
The right of adult citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State except on account of felony conviction or dependency on public assistance.
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration but in no case may income be taxed at more than ten percent.
No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once. No person may be elected to the Senate more than three times, nor to the House more than five times. No person shall be employed by the government for more than twenty years.
Some completely new provisions:
All officers of government, elected and appointed, are required to obey their oath or affirmation to the Constitution. Any such officer convicted of violating their oath or affirmation shall be put to death within seven days of conviction.
Every ninth year from the adoption of this Constitution the people shall by majority vote elect a Censor for a one year term of office. The Censor shall be empowered to audit any and all aspects of government, permanently remove from office any government employee and annul any laws passed since the previous Censorship which in the Censor’s view violates the Constitution. No person elected as Censor may hold any future office of trust or profit in government and former Censors have legal immunity in all cases except those of first degree murder and rape.
I’m sure everyone can come up with their own and such a thing would be a good debate – but here’s the thing we have to wrap our minds around: if we do obtain the power to reform the government, the Left must be excluded for our deliberations.
These all appear to be good clarifications of existing enumeration of rights. I’m a little concerned about the “demonstrable falsehoods” and I think the addition of “nor be charged with perjury unless there is an underlying criminal charge” is important.
I was concerned about the possibility of a runaway Convention of States but when I read the website it appears this has been addressed. People who would want to take advantage of an amendment convention to impost Leftist ideology on our Constitution would have to find the support to mount their own Convention of States. As you say, “if we do obtain the power to reform the government, the Left must be excluded for our deliberations”.
I wish I could think of a way to remove a right to advocate for a political structure antithetical to that of our Constitution, but don’t know quite how to do it without infringing on freedom of speech and the right to criticize our government when it is wrong.
North Gaza has been reduced to sand and gravel, and there are talks now about doing the same to the south.
Airstrikes continue day and night. Three nights ago, there was a 1 hour period where 100 jets delivered over 400 strikes. That’s where Israeli ground forces went in on a large Hamas compound and they withdrew, then nightfall came, and they bombed it to below ground level.
A few incidents are being reported from over the Red Sea today.
The American government wanted the mass shooting to happen to further their gun agenda … I believe that to be fact. Conspiracy theory # (oh hell i’ve lost track)
Cops visited Maine gunman’s home SIX WEEKS before massacre after he warned doctors he was going to ‘snap and commit a mass shooting’
We know the kind of people we’re dealing with in the anti-gun crowd, and no, I wouldn’t put it past them to “break a few eggs” in pursuit of their goal. It pretty much started with Sandy Hook, and I think they learned a lot from that about how to do propaganda. I’m not one who doesn’t believe Sandy Hook even happened, but I don’t believe it happened the way it was portrayed. If you saw any of the videos (that have all been scrubbed), you know there was something fishy about the whole tragedy. The videos of the Coroner when asked about the autopsies spoke volumes.
Well let’s talk about Uvalde. Cops actually stood down while kids were being slaughtered. They were willing to kill people over Covid, and have done nothing to stop Fentynal from killing tens of thousands. The United States Government is a murdering machine
Leftists responsible for killing people? The only response to that is “Well, YEAH!” The main difference is that, unlike Stalin and Pol Pot, et al, the United States is doing it in increments, and hiding it as much as possible.
Much like jackals and coyotes kill their prey by savaging the legs till the prey collapses, the Western Leftists savage the foundations of this country, bleeding off a little here and a little there, but never doubt that the intended goal is the same as that of the jackals trying to take down a prey animal.
Killing children won’t weaken the country, but providing a foundation for disarming the country will.
We can’t point at those cops or those doctors and say “They WANTED people to die!” But we can point at the societal rot that has nurtured the rejection of important stabilizing concepts, so now we as a society are squeamish about “judging” people, or detaining or confining the mentally ill. The claptrap about “inclusion” extends to mental illness, so academics who are in charge of policy demand that we merely “understand” mental illness, and do not “judge” it. They have recast the important elements of detaining and confining the mentally ill as “punishment” and therefore mean and hateful.
Law enforcement is shackled by political correctness. An officer might look at someone like this potential killer and know he is a danger to society who should be taken off the streets but also know that there is no administrative or legal support for doing so.
The lunatics are starting to call themselves “neuro-divergent” so they can claim lunacy is protected under the ADA.
We really have to stop this whole train and reverse course.
It will take some forcible action to do it.
I guess if you can reframe morbid obesity as “gravitationally challenged” you can try “neuro-divergent” to describe a brain that is defective. This is actually more in line with the effort to sanitize pedophilia by referring to it as mere attraction to young people. It’s not WRONG, you see, it’s just ‘different’—-and diversity is ideal.
They’re always “known wolves”.
Who serve a purpose
In the meantime, our enemies are evaluating our weaknesses and using them against us. We know that our border policies, which now seem to be reduced to a welcome basket of cookies and a map, are dangerous to our national security as well as to our economy. We know that we have enriched Mexican drug cartels by creating a whole new source of revenue—that of transporting people to the border, with the added bonus of being able to rape women and girls along the way and set up a side hustle of selling them into sex slavery. But I, at least—no doubt along with the “intelligence” agencies of the nation, so busy with keeping an eye on Catholics who go to Latin Masses and on parents who object to porn in schools—did not realize that at least one Leftist dictator had weaponized illegal immigration to further weaken the United States. Nicaragua is now accepting charter flights of “immigrants” from Haiti, who then move north to the United States.
Nicaragua serves as a jumping point to the United States for migrants from all over the world because it offers visa free travel, the report explained. Upon their arrival, smugglers at the Managua airport greet migrants with passengers’ names and photos to aid in their onward journey to America.
Enrique Martínez, a spokesperson for the group “Platform for Democratic Unity,” an opposition group to Ortega claimed that the number of flights comes at a strategic moment for Nicaraguan leadership.
Martinez said: “Ortega is going to use this migration issue to say to the United States that we’re the ones in control. And if they want to stop this, they´re going to have to negotiate.”
The Cloward and Pivens strategy has expanded beyond merely making the United States more vulnerable to internal Leftist takeover.
Just curious….why are we talking about “antisemitism”, which is apparently a term that has been sanitized, like “socialism” and “gulag” to become acceptable to a certain element, instead of using the standby “racism” to describe the gleeful dedication of the Left to commit genocide and eliminate an entire race/ethnicity?
Why aren’t we calling the Palestinians racists? Why aren’t we calling the Hamas supporters racists? Target a nightclub in Harlem and drag a few black people down the street before cutting off their heads and you know the terminology that would be used. A police officer shooting a black man who is trying to kill him is called a racist, but for some reason a whole demographic openly dedicated to killing everyone of a certain ethnicity is never branded with that epithet.
Just like the black American population serves a purpose for Democrats, Palestinians serve a purpose for globalists. There is zero concern for human life, but there is huge concern for completing the New World Order
I read that Joe Biden plans to run as a “wartime” President, lol no doubt after causing two world wars, but what they don’t understand, America does not want a “wartime” President. Americans want a strong peace time President. Let’s get back to that.
It really illustrates hubris to bring about a war and then try to run as a wartime president. It’s similar to the Hebrew definition of hubris—killing your parents and then asking for mercy from the court because you are an orphan.
Did we read the room wrong? LOL
I’ve always loved the dry humor and quirky outlook of Scott Adams. Now he has revived Dilbert and is posting both new and old Dilberts plus the new Robots series.
Kurt Schlichter writes an article about how to deal with savagery: (which reminds me—why is it, again, that we are not supposed to refer to Middle Eastern terrorists as primitive savages? Why is it, again, that we are supposed to RESPECT them and not say bad things about them?) But I digress. What Schlichter concludes is this: that there is an important learning point for the barbarians. Don’t screw with civilized people, or everybody dies.
While the Western Nazis and terrorism apologists bleat about Israel being targeted because it “occupies” Palestinian land, a Hamas leader says no, that’s not the case at all. It’s not about land disputes.
Hamas leader, Ha-mad Al-Regeb, calls for the genocide of Jews, and prays to Allah to help Muslims behead Jews: “Oh Allah, Enable Us to Get to the Necks of the Jews”.
He explains that the conflict is not related to land disputes, but to the sins of Jews according to Islam. He claims Jews murdered prophets and are also an evolutionary source of “filthy animals” such as chimpanzees and pigs.
So, all you proud and preening supporters of cowardly ambushes, butchering of babies, burning of people alive, torturing civilians, raping and killing children and the elderly and of genocide, stop your blathering about “occupation” and “colonization” because your own people admit that it’s really just about blind insane hatred of an entire race/ethnicity based on an ancient tribal grievance. That is, primitive savagery brought forward into the present to be celebrated by people who, in their hearts, have never progressed farther than that.
The barbarity of the Islam faith is unacceptable. The way they treat their women and little girls is deplorable, and how they use all their resources and time to plan and inflict pain should never be condoned again. The entire world should rise up against radical Muslims, as they did with the Nazi’s.
I think the term “radical Muslims” is increasingly irrelevant, as we have seen the so-called “moderate” Muslims supporting genocide and refusing to condemn the vicious primitive savagery of Hamas, which was enabled and supported by the population of Gaza as well as by Muslims and fellow travelers around the world.
BTW, I have often used the term “fellow traveler” wondering if anyone would pick up on the Cold War reference. So far, none have.
From Wikipedia: The term fellow traveller (also fellow traveler) identifies a person who is intellectually sympathetic to the ideology of a political organization, and who co-operates in the organization’s politics, without being a formal member of that organization.
From Merriam-Webster: a person who sympathizes with and often furthers the ideals and program of an organized group (such as the Communist party) without membership in the group or regular participation in its activities
