Introduction:
Semites & Anti-Semites —
The Conflict of the Ages
.
. .Despite the fact that most of the substantive
material within this volume is taken from books by Jewish authors
citing — perhaps actually bragging about — Jewish wealth
and Jewish power, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) of B’nai
B’rith will undoubtedly defame this volume as a work of “anti-Semitism”
if indeed they even dare mention it at all.
. . .Right up front, let it be noted
that we are not here to say that Jewish people in America do not
deserve the massive and unprecedented wealth and the consequential
power that they have accumulated (and which is documented in this
volume).
. . .The fact of considerable Jewish
wealth and power is not the issue.
. . .What is at issue is how the Jewish
community has exercised its wealth and power — in league with
a hard core group of fundamentalist Christian allies — particularly
in the arena of influencing U.S. policy toward Israel and the Arab
world.
. . .The truth is that two of the great
tragedies of our new century — the 9- 11 terrorist outrage
resulting in the deaths of 3,000 Americans and the unnecessary and
disastrous American invasion of Iraq that has resulted in countless
lives being lost and ten times that many being butchered and maimed
— are both a direct consequence of U.S. policy in the Middle
East, a policy that has been dictated by the “Jewish lobby”
in Washington and actively encouraged by the American media monopoly
that is, for all intents and purposes, largely owned by a handful
of families and financial interests who are Jewish supporters of
Israel.
. . .How many more such tragedies will
occur because American Jews have accumulated so much power and have
used it to bend American policy in such a parochial fashion, forcing
America’s elected and appointed officials to carry out policies
that, more often than not, are contrary to America’s interests?
How many more innocent people have to die? How much longer will
an influential special interest group continue to dominate U.S.
foreign policy?
. . .These very serious questions standing
alone demonstrate why a study of precisely what wealth and power
has been captured by the Jewish elite in America is fully within
the realm of thoroughly acceptable and logical public discussion,
despite what the well-funded and often hysterical demonizers at
the ADL might say to the contrary.

To be sure, it is not
only in foreign policy that Jewish influence makes its presence
felt. The influence of Jewish organizations in shaping modern-day
(and most disastrous) U.S. immigration policy was paramount.
. . .Likewise with Jewish influence
in issues such as separation of church and state and the institution
of “thought control” measures that infringe on First
Amendment freedoms. The range of issues is endless.
. . .However, of course, those who
raise questions about Jewish influence are hit with the always damaging
charge of “anti-Semitism.”
. . .And — at least in the past
— those who have been tarred with that ugly label have faced
the most egregious forms of public censure and opprobrium, not to
mention economic sanctions and, on more than one occasion, acts
of terrorism, the last of which is of no surprise considering the
fact that modern-day terrorism has its origins in the activities
of the so-called Jewish “defense” organizations that
drove the British out of Palestine prior to the establishment of
Israel in 1948.
. . .In recent years, however, if groups
such as the ADL are to be believed, anti-Semitism is growing by
leaps and bounds. In the past several years, dozens of books and
thousands of magazine articles have raised the specter of a “new
anti-Semitism.”
. . .And even the esteemed Webster’s
Dictionary has now broadened the definition of anti-Semitism to
include “opposition to Zionism” and “sympathy
for the opponents of Israel” — two categories that would
probably include literally billions of people all across the face
of the planet.
. . .In that regard it is perhaps no
wonder that some years ago, even before the purported “outbreak”
of the “new anti-Semitism,” the most popular song in
Israel was “The Whole World Is Against Us,” reflecting
a mindset that is most revealing, to say the very least.
. . .The fact is that the “anti-Semitic”
bugaboo that the ADL has profited from so immensely has become so
tired and worn that it now seems — if the ADL is to be believed
— that virtually everybody is an anti-Semite (or at least
potentially one)!
. . .History shows that a wide-ranging
array of individuals have been accused by the ADL — or by
like-minded “hater hunters” such as the Simon Wiesenthal
Center — of either being “anti-Semitic” and/or
insufficiently supportive of the demands of the Jewish people and,

ern times, of the state of Israel. And we’re not talking about
Adolf Hitler here! Instead, the list of those standing accused of
“anti-Semitism” is impressive indeed, virtually a catalogue
of some of the most respected personages of their respective eras.
While the list is by no means complete, it is representative.
. . .First of all, there is an extensive
list of former public officials of recent years — liberal
and conservative alike — who have been dubbed as “anti-Semites”
outright, accused of making “anti-Semitic” remarks,
or otherwise charged with hostility to “tiny Israel.”
Those accused include such eminent names as:
• President Richard Nixon |
• President John F. Kennedy |
| • President
Jimmy Carter |
• President
George H. W. Bush |
| • President
Gerald Ford |
• President
Harry Truman |
| • Sen.
Robert F. Kennedy (D-N.Y.) |
• Sen.
J. William Fulbright (D-Ark.) |
| • Sen.
Charles Percy (R-Ill.) |
• Sen.
Jim Abourezk (D-S.D.) |
| • Sen.
Adlai Stevenson (D-Ill.) |
• Sen.
Ernest F. Hollings (D-S.C.) |
| • Rep.
Paul Findley (R-Ill.) |
• Rep.
Pete McCloskey (R-Calif.) |
| • Rep.
Ed Zshau (R-Calif.) |
• Rep.
Mary Rose Oakar (D-Ohio) |
| • Rep.
Mervin Dymally (D-Calif.) |
• Rep.
Gus Savage (D-Ill.) |
| • Rep.
John R. Rarick (D-La.) |
• Rep.
Steve Stockman (R-Texas) |
| • Rep.
Jim Traficant (D-Ohio) |
• Rep.
Earl Hilliard (D-Ala.) |
| • UN Ambassador
Bill Scranton |
• UN Ambassador
Andrew Young |
| • Governor
John B. Connally (D-Texas) |
• Defense
Secretary James Forrestall |
| • Defense
Secretary Caspar Weinberger |
• Secretary
of State James Baker |
. . .At least three current members
of Congress (as of the 2004 elections) have been hit with the smear
of “anti-Semitism” at one time or another:
| •
Rep. Fortney “Pete” Stark (D-Calif.) |
• Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-Ga.) |
| •
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) |
. . .Yes, even Hillary! And do recall
that in the 2004 presidential campaign, no less than former Vermont
Gov. Howard Dean — whose own wife is Jewish—was suspected
of being less than loyal to the interests of Israel.
. . .As a consequence, Dean saw his
hard-driving presidential campaign sabotaged in the Iowa caucuses
by — according to the Jewish newspaper Forward
— a substantial turnout of Jewish voters in favor of Sen.

Kerry (D-Mass.) whose own campaign had, until then, been faltering.
. . .The Jewish elite simply could
not accept the idea that a maverick politician such as Dean —
who opposed the Iraq war that the major American Jewish organizations
(and Israel) supported — could be within striking distance
of winning the Democratic presidential nomination. Thus, the switch
to Kerry who — as we now know — just happens to be of
Jewish extraction himself.
. . .In the past — aside from
the politicians — there have been some rather well-known American
military figures accused of being “anti-Semitic” or
somehow hostile to the state of Israel. They include such notables
as:
•
Gen. George Patton
• Gen. George C. Marshall
• Gen. George Stratemeyer
• Gen. Albert Wedemeyer
• Gen. George V. Strong (Chief of Military Intelligence
– 1942-45)
• Maj. Gen. George Moseley (U.S. Army Asst Chief of Staff)
• Col. Sherman Miles (Chief of Military Intelligence)
• Gen. George Brown (Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff)
• Adm. Thomas Moorer (Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff)
• Gen. Pedro Del Valle (U.S. Marines)
. In
recent years, several well-known entertainers, literary figures,
commentators and others — including at least one Jewish rabbi
and one Jewish newsman — have also been charged with “anti-Semitism,”
or being hostile to Israel, in one form or another. They include:
| • Mel Gibson |
• Marlon
Brando |
| • Michael
Jackson |
• Steve
Carlton |
| • Gore
Vidal |
• Robert
Mitchum |
| • Mark
Lane |
• Alfred
Lilienthal |
| • Rabbi
Elmer Berger |
• Dr.
Billy Graham |
| • Mike
Wallace (“Sixty Minutes”) |
• Peter
Jennings (“ABC News”) |
. . .Several
Black leaders have also been accused (or suspected) of being
“anti-Semitic.” They include:
| • Rev.
Martin Luther King |
• Rev.
Jesse Jackson |
| • Minister
Louis Farrakhan |
• Malcolm
X |

. . .And
note that on April 28, 1993 the San Francisco Weekly
reported that a former ADL official, Henry Schwarzschild, had revealed
that King was one of those under regular surveillance by the ADL,
which then turned the fruits of its labor over to the FBI.
. . .In fact, while the FBI was indeed
engaged in spying on Rev. King, the ADL was doing likewise, considering
King a “loose cannon,” according to Schwarzschild. So
not even an esteemed African-American civil rights leader was immune
from the suspicions of the ADL!
. . .The truth is that anyone —
repeat anyone — who has any substantial point of view on any
subject and chooses to express it in a public forum is considered
subject to surveillance by the ADL, acting as the unofficial “thought
police” for the Zionist elite in America.
. . .To even begin listing the array
of current non-American world leaders who have been charged with
anti-Semitism (in the Webster definition of the word) would belabor
the point, although Malaysia’s world-reknowned former Prime
Minister Dr. Mahathir Muhammed is probably among the best known
of those who have been hit with this smear. And he is just one of
those respected names recently subjected to the charge.
. . .The roll call of notable figures
of the past accused of “anti-Semitism” is worth citing.
The list includes such writers, philosophers, artists, composers
and inventors as:
| • Walt Disney |
• Thomas Edison |
| • Charles A. Lindbergh |
• Henry Ford |
| • H. L. Mencken |
• Theodore Dreiser |
| • Nathaniel Hawthorne |
• Ernest Hemingway |
| • Lord Byron |
• Thomas Carlyle |
| • Henry James |
• Henry Adams |
| • T. S. Eliot |
• George Eliot |
| • Washington Irving |
• Truman Capote |
| • Carl Jung |
• F. Scott Fitzgerald |
| • Jack Kerouc |
• Percy Shelley |
| • Rudyard Kipling |
• H. G. Wells |
| • D. H. Lawrence |
• Franz Liszt |
| • James Russell Lowell |
• Somerset Maugham |
| • Henry Miller |
• Eugene O’Neill |

Oh, the list goes
on and on . . .
.
. . And so the next time you hear someone
charged with being “anti-Semitic” (or something along
those lines), the person being so accused is actually in some fairly
distinguished company. It’s not just those crazy “neo-Nazis”
in funny uniforms who are accused of being less than friendly to
the Zionists. They even said it about Walt Disney!
. . .And as we’ve seen already,
the Jewish elite in America don’t have much to brag about
when it comes to bigotry, as demonstrated by the little- known story
of America’s first Jewish congressman, Lewis Levin, whom we
met in the opening pages of this volume. In his fight to keep Irish
Catholics out of the United States, it was Levin who truly pioneered
very real bigotry in America.
. . .The next time your Jewish neighbor
starts bellyaching about “anti- Semitism,” you might
mention Levin.
. . .You see, it’s not only “the
poor persecuted Jews” who’ve suffered, although sometimes
one might think otherwise, based on what we hear in the media which
often proclaims Jewish suffering “unique.” In fact,
the Jewish elites have helped make others suffer. Their exercise
of power and influence has not always been for the best.
. . .In any case, all of that having
been said, let’s take a look at some cold, hard facts about
Those Who Reign Supreme in America today.
. . .As we’ll see, beyond question,
“the poor persecuted Jews” have actually done pretty
well in America and that’s why it is no stretch of the imagination
to call America . . . The New Jerusalem.
