I'm sure that Mr. Haber has donated to some organization or another that supports abortion ri--er, the slaughter of millions of children and to read this article makes me culpable in that massacre. If nothing else, I'm sure he's not out saving babies as I type...CHILDREN ARE DYING, MOTHERFUCKERS! Come on, you guys.

During the 50's and 60's, some of its activities were underwritten by clandestine support from the Central Intelligence Agency. So, Alan Haber, the son of an economics professor, just happens to come to campus as a freshman and gets heavily involved in a student protest group that is infiltrated by CIA operatives. So the plot thickens... Was Haber encouraging the inclusion of the communists merely to gather information for the CIA??? What was his role then and what is his role today? Who is Alan Haber??? And what part is Mark M. playing in this current operation??? Why can't Mark K. find any information about Alan on the Internet??? This thread is getting interesting.

This, he says, after calling Haber an "irrelevant pathetic old man." (He misspelled pathetic too.) If you don't know the significance of SDS you have no credibility. “Why the insults?” he says.

I'm asking because I've been searching and not finding anymore then what I posted. Surely with all the good you say Alan has done I'd be able to find something on the net. And why the insults? Do you think that give you more credibility? Edward do you have anything to back that up. I’m asking because I’ve been searching and not finding anymore then what I posted.

It grew to include tens of thousands of students across the country, and lead the way for an unprecedented society-wide push for reform. To say that SDS wasn't influential is to show yourself to be incredibly uninformed. As Haber notes, it may have happened anyway, but anyone in existence during the 60s knew SDS. I know I should ignore you, but I think it's important that others coming to this thread know that not every reader of this site is an angry tea-partying moron with an inflated sense of his own importance.

The only real thing I could find was he was first president of Students for a Democratic Society. Maybe his memory is fuzzy at best. Your hero seems to have pumped himself up a bit. LOL! I come up with more when I google my own name. Really Edward, I googled his name and this was the best I can up with.

Haber is quite clear that LID was angry with him for including Socialists in his activities. And, Mark K, you should look up the meaning of the word irrelevant. This guy built a nation-wide organization from the ground up and contributed toward the passage of the Civil Rights Act, and the ending of the Vietnam War. And he's still contributing today..... By the way, what do you do? Are there videos of you being interviewed anywhere on-line? Watch the videos, EOS. Haber is quite clear that LID was angry with him for including Socialists in his activities.

Did you read Mark's post or at least watch the videos? The League for Industrial Democracy (LID), Haber's group, was formerly known as the Intercollegiate Socialist Society. "Social Democracy?" That's a laugh. Once the State owns all the means of production there's no further need for the Democracy label. It's a tyranny. “Don’t get the socialism infatuation..???”
