War Could Create Resentment Against Jews

January 25, 2003

Sen. John Kerry 


by Henry Makow Ph.D


Last week, The Boston Globe "outed" Sen. John Kerry's Jewish ancestry.

The newspaper hired an Austrian genealogist who established that Kerry's grandparents were Jewish and changed their name from "Kohn" to "Kerry" in 1902.

Sen. Kerry, a practising Catholic, was amazed. "This is incredible stuff," he said. "I think it is more than interesting; it is a revelation."

A leading contender for the 2004 Presidential nomination, Kerry is often referred to in his home state of Massachusetts as an "Irish American". He said he always tried to correct this impression.

Meanwhile the news didn't alarm another leading Democratic contender, Sen. Joseph Lieberman. According to his assistant, Lieberman who is an Orthodox Jew is the only candidate with "a real lox box."

By the time November 2004 rolls around, being Jewish may or may not be an asset. If the Iraq war goes smoothly and the Muslim world graciously submits to U.S. hegemony, it may be an benefit.

But if the U.S. gets bogged down with heavy casualties on both sides, Americans are going to blame big oil and Zionism for getting them into this mess.

Everybody knows that:

  1. The only country that fears Iraq's WMD's is Israel;

  2. American-Jewish neo-conservatives on the Defence Policy Board (Richard Perle, Paul Wolfowitz) planned this war in 1998 and made it Bush Administration policy;

  3. The purpose of the war is to change the balance of power in the Middle East so Israel can settle the Palestinian issue on its own terms; and

  4. Congress trembles in fear before the Israeli Lobby, "AIPAC."

Whatever the real significance of John Kerry's "outing," the symbolism is clear. At this perilous juncture in US history, there is no effective opposition because Zionist Jews appear to control both parties.

The Jewish "Anti Defamation League" considers it a barometer of anti Semitism to say, "Jews have too much power." But is something anti Semitic if it is true? Anti Semitism is racial prejudice. Zionist power is not a racial prejudice; it is a fact of life. When a special interest group hijacks American foreign policy, it is a patriotic duty to say so.

Lenin banned "anti Semitism" on pain of death. Does Lenin control the USA?

Zionists believe Jews must have a national homeland in Israel. But Israel was not established for the well being of the Jewish people. The British elite planted Jews in the Arab world to help colonize it. This is the way Zionists actually saw themselves. (See Chaim Weizmann's Trial and Error.)

The elite's hidden agenda was to produce the conditions for a possible Third World War leading to "world government." This may be unfolding now.

Zionists leaders belong to a small interlocking network of people who think they have a divine right to rule the world. This includes members of the British and European aristocracy, and the many multinational corporations related to the Rockefeller and Rothschild cartels.

In recent decades, Zionists have succeeded in making support for Zionism synonymous with "Jewish." They have made Israel appear to be a vulnerable country facing annihilation in a sea of bloodthirsty Arabs.

In fact, Israel has 200-400 nuclear bombs and is one of the most powerful nations on earth. It has evaded many opportunities for a just peace because it's secret agenda is to dominate the region.

Israel keeps this quiet because most Jews, including Israelis, did not sign on for that.

I am an assimilated Canadian Jew who lived in Israel in 1972-73 and used to be a Zionist. I no longer believe the Jewish people need a national home.

I do not believe Palestine belongs to the Jews just because God gave it to us in the Bible. After all, the Old Testament is a Jewish document. Who would you expect God to promise it to? In the Koran, He could have promised it to the Muslims. Most Zionists don't even believe in God.

I do not believe a universal spirit of Love would favour the Jews over anyone else. In this matter, I subscribe to the injunction "Thou Shall Not Steal." As philosopher Erich Fromm said, "if everyone claimed the land his or her forefathers had 2500 years ago, we would have chaos."

Israel is the illegitimate child of part of the world's elite. But illegitimate children also have a right to live. I support Israeli statehood within the 1967 boundaries, with generous restitution to the Palestinians. Unfortunately, I doubt if this will satisfy Zionist leaders because I fear their ideology is inherently racist and expansionist.

I suspect the Zionist leadership betrayed the Jews of Europe during the Jewish holocaust. For example, they needlessly provoked the Nazis:

Did you know the term "Final Solution" apparently was first used by American Jews to apply to Germans? In a 1941 book entitled Germany Must Perish, Theodore Kaufman advocated the sterilization of all Germans. The American Jewish Committee endorsed this call for genocide. Needless to say, it enraged the Nazis. (p.14) http://www.indianauniversity.org/11.htm

I suspect that the Jewish holocaust took place partly to justify the state of Israel. World War Two may have been fought between two perverse visions of racial supremacy. Psychologist Kevin MacDonald (The Culture of Critique) has said Zionism and Nazism are "mirror images" of each other. Zionists and their allies largely controlled the governments of USSR, USA and England.

Jewish leaders use anti Semitism to control and exploit the Jewish masses. Jews are taught to see themselves as a vulnerable minority in constant fear of annihilation. This enforces social cohesion, outlaws genuine self-criticism and, of course, commands generous donations and support.

In fact, Zionist leaders are an important part of the elite cabal that is tightening its domination of the world. This is largely done through control of mass media and government. The war on Iraq is an important part of it. Obviously loads of non-Jews are involved. But, as long as Jews do not disown Zionist expansion and the new world order, their role will be a natural source of resentment.

Many Jews like myself primarily identify with the welfare of humanity. I was delighted to discover an exciting new online resource for information on the Jewish legacy and influence.

"WHEN VICTIMS RULE"

"When Victims Rule: A Critique of Jewish Pre-Eminence in America" is a unique 2000 page online data base featuring approximately 10,000 citations from about 4,000 bibliographic sources (117 pages of sources, mainly from the mass media, scholarly books, and Jewish ethnic media sources) addressing the Jewish reality.

It was prepared by the "Crosswinds Collective" an anonymous group "to elicit public discussion... It is against all forms of bigotry. Criticizing the wealthiest ethnic group in America and any expression of its ethnocentrism, in-group solidarity, racism, unethical behavior, dual moral standards, political influence, dedication to a foreign nation, and exertion of power is not bigotry. It is one of our most elemental rights in a free society: to expose the bias, hypocrisy and injustice of influential power elites that affect all our lives."

Using largely Jewish scholarship, this database challenges the fairy tale image of the Jewish people spoon-fed to both Jews and non-Jews. I particularly recommend the review by Israel Shamir, an Israeli and recent Jewish convert to Christianity, who says that Judaism always sought to destroy Christianity: "No study or deconstruction of Jewishness is meaningful unless one understands that Jewry was born in order to fight Christ and Christianity."

He suggests that by becoming secular humanists, we have in effect become Jews: "The Jews represent [a] certain Spirit that can't be defeated but by spirit. The belief that there is no God, that Man is self-sufficient (Humanism), that the World is realizable without recourse to the concept of the Absolute Spirit (God), is the triumph of Judaism over other peoples. On this basis alone these peoples are delivered to Globalism and ordained to destruction." http://jtrarchive.tripod.com/

I will continue to examine these themes in weeks to come. Let's hope that the worldwide outcry against the war in Iraq will prevent this barbaric and immoral tragedy from occurring. I am not optimistic.
