VAN JONES MANIFESTO SCRUBBED FROM WEB

It would appear that Obama's Green Jobs Czar, Van Jones, is either not proud of his work from 2004 or has something to hide. Aaron Klein at WND is reporting that a group that Jones led in the 1990's (STORM), published a manifesto in 2004 that has since been scrubbed from the internet.

As Klein Points out, the Manifesto most certainly leans toward hardline communist beliefs:
"We agreed with Lenin's analysis of the state and the party," reads the manifesto. "And we found inspiration in the revolutionary strategies developed by Third World revolutionaries like Mao Tse-tung and Amilcar Cabral."
It has been confirmed that Jones named his son after Cabral as well. I also found it extremely interesting that in light of this document being scrubbed, Cabral is quoted on the "scrubbed" document's 3rd page as saying:
Hide nothing from the masses of the people. Tell no lies. Expose lies wherever they are told. Mask no difficulties, mistakes, failures. Claim no easy victories.
Hmmmm. So how does that square with STORM'S Communist Manifesto being pulled from the internet?

Quintessential communism. Ends justify means. Lies and deceit. When those lies are exposed, communists don't try to defend them. They deny them, hide them, or ridicule their accusers much the same way Saul Alinsky advocated in Rules for Radicals #5, which says:

Rule 5: Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon. It’s hard to counterattack ridicule, and it infuriates the opposition, which then reacts to your advantage.

On page 15 of STORM'S manifesto discusses its Political Education Committee 411, which was formed in 1998. Here are some excerpts from that portion of the document:
411 was important in collectivizing STORM's commitment to Marxist politics.
We began with Marxist "basics," laying a foundation on which to build an understanding of Third World communism.
Later sessions covered more "contemporary" issues, including Marxist feminism, transgender liberation, and the Palestinian liberation struggle.
There's plenty more 'eye-popping' prose in this authorless document. Speaking of this manifesto being authorless, check out the screen shot of its, "Who Wrote This Document" explanation on page 3. Note how they used three parapraphs to identify NO INDIVIDUAL. Here's a link to the ARCHIVED COPY provided by Klein.
