I can assure you that I am not anti-semitic in any way, but after reading this college professor's
www.rense.com/general45/protodd.htm take on the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, I am intrigued and want to read this book now.
Not because I am a white supremacist or a nazi or anything like that, it is just things like.... Being killed on site in Russia if you are caught with this book which makes think that there is something to hide. If it is just a forgery, why is the Jewish Association of American pushing Amazon and Barnes & Noble not to sell it?
For many centuries the specter of anti-semitism has plagued the Jewish people; they have tended to be small in number, clannish(understandably), supportive of each other, and talented in money matters. This has, I think at times, fostered a paranoia and a jealousy toward them by other groups. Also, I think they have been thrust into the role of a convenient scape-goat by other powerful groups anxious to shift the focus off themselves.
I.e., Bill Cooper (of "Behold a Pale Horse") and others have espoused the theory that the Protocols may have been written by totally non-Jewish parties, but substituting terms such as "Jewish", "goyim", and "King of Israel" for entirely different names. This was to hide the real writers in the event of discovery, supposedly.
The suggestion made was that the real writers were possibly Dutch Protestant, or Anglo-Saxon upper class wealthy, powerful, aristocratic Caucasians, and the nomenclature is all a
switch. Thence, take out "We Jews" and put in, "We Upper Crust blue-blooded male WASP
High level secret society members" instead. Take out "Jerusalem" and insert "London-Brussels-Paris-Berlin-New York-Moscow." Take out "Messiah" and put in "Whatever Well-Connected White Guy We Pick That Week".
The people who are supposed to understand that it is about White Illuministic Anglo Brethren may understand it; the rest of us, the "rabble" will wrongly take it at face value as referring to the Jews.
Or, it may be some crazy hoax, or forgery, maybe a stunt by some students or some unkind
dabblers. If taken as written, it is more than unflattering to Jews, to be sure.
I don't believe it was written by Jews, likewise I do not believe it is proof of a Jewish conspiracy. If the document is real, I am prone to see it as written secretively by a committee serving the magnificently rich and powerful, people with cash and power from Europe, and partly America, but worldwide wealthy, real globe trotters. Their race and genetics are irrelevant. High level lodge members, mainly white, mainly English, Teutonic, Scandinavian. And probably no Jews involved, or if so, only incidentally. This world wide thing that is happening is not about the Jews; they didn't cause it and they aren't doing it, though I fear they may be being made pawns by others.
The disturbing thing about the documents, is that a number of the tenets are visibly operating today. When it was written in 1898, or whichever year, who could have guessed so accurately of today?
If it's a total hoax, it's an awfully prophetic one.
This document is not well known, even today. Only now with so much web attention, etc, are most Jewish folks even coming to hear about it! I think most of them find it shocking and absurd and certainly in no wise a thing they would endorse. I.e. most Jews don't even know what it is and wouldn't like it one bit.
So how could this be a Jewish document? It's not. It's a handful of rich white patriarchs who own it all and wish to continue doing so. It's all about money, privilege, and how to hang on to it and keep it in the family! And to diffuse the public mind from seeing it, scapegoats and
diversions are employed. Blame it on somebody else. Blame things on minorities, or women, or eastern religions, or gays, or lesbians, or Catholics, or Jews. Or young people, or old people.
Or poor people, or sick people, or undesirable people.
The Elite White Man runs the show, meanwhile everybody else is in there fighting to keep just a piece, a leg up, or just their survival.
OK am I on a soapbox?
The few cats with the 'Mostest' play a game of Divide and Conquer on the Masses.
It is true that among the Jews, some have acquired considerable wealth. This I think came about as a measure to insulate them from the history of persecution and genocide they have faced at certain times in certain cultures. A natural reaction. They have a measure of wealth.
But, the biggest slab of the Wealth pie is concentrated in family lines in which "goy" blood runs, not Jewish. They want to insure this situation for themselves and their progeny into the future.
These hidden WASP controllers are not well known. They are mega-bilionaires (tens of billions of dollars) who control countries, rulers, corporations, and large media outlets. They prosper most when the masses are not looking at them. For them, Anti-semitism might be a way of taking the public eye off of them and onto others.
The Jews are unique as a minority. This may play into the source of this prejudice. Because they have not had a homeland, they have lived in every city on earth. This is truer for them than any other culture. They are historically a small population; everywhere they go they are outnumbered, and so they cling together tenaciously for survival. They promote each other aggressively because there is strength in unity. Hence, everywhere a Jewish person travels, he has compatriots there when he arrives.
Other peoples tend to be competitive, suffer from intense in-fighting, and often splinter off into unfriendly factions and communities. Look at Europe. Look at the history of the nation states of Italy, of the Slavic sates, or the Russian states, of the inner turmoil of Great Britain, their strife with the Irish, Scots, and Welsh. So everywhere in Europe, disunity prevails amongst the different tribes of Celts, Francs, Teutons, Anglos, etc, et al. And this is from the oldest history, before Rome. It continues today.
But the Jews learned that they could not afford the luxury of strife and disharmony.
So, wherever they are, they are a strong league with each other, in all countries, all continents. This is not a conspiracy, and it is not a way of trying to "take over the world."
It is merely so that they can survive.
Look at Great Britain. the population of England itself is, what , 55-60 million strong?
And Ireland? What is it? 5 million? And essentially the same number of square miles? Why are they so few? Why are they so poor? Why are they ruled by Anglo Saxons?
How many Scots are in Scotland? Welsh in Wales? Why is England so strong, so populated, so relatively more affluent than her sister nations she controls on the isles? Because the English system of government makes the people unified. The Scots, Irish, and Welsh have long suffered from disunity:clan wars. Local chieftains at odds with each other. The English Crown ruled with an iron fist and has firm control over most of those peoples. It surprises me that Ireland (excepting Northern Ireland) attained any kind of independence from the Queen.
But it's the same everywhere. Every nation has split factions, and so that is their weakness.
One large nation with many people which is split many ways is like many small weak nations.
The Jews existed with no homeland from late in the first century C.E. until 1948 C.E.. And in those almost 19 centuries they forged strong networks between their far reaching communities. One small nation tightly bonded together is like several strong nations in force.
And so it makes the individual nations they live in either (1) greatly admire or fear them, or (b) resent them in jealousy and become prejudiced.
This is why the prejudice of anti-semitism is a bit different from say, a racist attitude toward people of different skin color, or a hatred of other tribes within ones own country.
No prejudice is "better", no racism is acceptable. But I am seeing that for Jews, it works in a different way I think then other "brands" of it.
Prejudice can be like wildfire; it can start somewhere and spread widely. For the "Swede", he can go home to Sweden and be loved and accepted there, he has a home base. Likewise for a Japanese, a Greek, an African American. There are safe nations for all persons to live in; zones of unconditional acceptance for that person, no matter how bad the prejudice gets in another place.
But the Jew has not had a homeland for many centuries until recently. All these years, if the tide of public opinion went sour, all Jews everywhere were in peril. Terror. Fear.
Imagine the effect on generation after generation of Jews who have had to cope with this?
Where is safe? Where do I go? Where do I belong?
This is tragic, a very sad burden that they have had to face.
And now we have America, the melting pot, the land that was designed for assimilation, for
acceptance, for the common good of the world's people.
The Jews have found the most peace, the greatest success, and first respite from this age old turmoil, at long last, right here, in America.
They are survivors, not conquerors. They have been the vanquished. I think there only "world wide plan" is for global acceptance, not conquest.
English and Dutch Imperialism won financial rule over the world by 1800. They have it today and they want to hold it. The hegemony and fortunes earned by the richest families during the centuries of colonial trade and western expansion; acquisition of natural resources, the heaping to themselves of technology, and the profiteering from capitalistic monopolies in everything from tea, petroleum, rubber, steel, gold, etc, has delivered virtual 100% control of the world's money and land to Rich White Protestants People in Europe and America. THAT'S who "wrote" the Protocols, in a sense, by reflection, they apply to them, [whether in reality or as a peculiarly accurate satire], NOT the Jews.........
OK, OK, most of the Jewish folks I know are
far from broke..........hehe.....but that's not what we're talking about here.
