In re Alinsky - The Jewish Standard

Not revealed in last week’s editorial “Primary Concerns” is that Saul Alinsky authored the book “Rules for Radicals.” He taught that radicals do not flaunt their radicalism, but infiltrate the system from within. In 1985, Barack Obama began serving as a community organizer in Chicago working for the Developing Communities Project, which was an Alinskyite group. Alinsky believed that the ends justify the means. How can The Jewish Standard defend this person and his ideas?
