- I was once asked this question on an American
patriot talk show. The assumption was that, as a Jew, I could answer
it. After reading "A Controversy of Zion," by Douglas Reed, I can
venture a reply.
-
- I begin by explaining my perspective. Recently I
borrowed a video on Judaism from the library. I wasn't sure what Jews
believe. I suspect I'm pretty typical in this respect.
-
- The video showed how Jews were persecuted in Egypt
and how God punished the Egyptians. After a few minutes I turned it
off. It seemed the religion of the Jewish people was the Jewish
people. No wonder so many Jews look for religious meaning
elsewhere.
-
- My parents were Poles who survived the war by
passing as Catholics. After they immigrated to Canada, they just
wanted to assimilate. They gave their children Anglicized names. Dad
flirted with the Unitarians. Mom said prayers on the Sabbath. Except
for attending synagogue twice a year, that was it.
-
- Religion is our connection to Eternity. Growing up
without it was growing up in a vacuum.
- At first I sought my "identity" in terms of
community.
-
- I became a Canadian nationalist; then, a Zionist. In
1972, at age 22, I tried to "make aliya" (immigrate to Israel) but
this experience made me realize I could not sacrifice my individual
freedom for "community."
-
- For example, I was picking oranges in a tree on a
kibbutz. My radio was on the ground, tuned to the BBC. Someone came
by, changed the station, and walked off.
-
- I left the Kibbutz and went to Jerusalem but the
attitude was the same. Israel seemed to devour its citizens. It had
many endearing qualities but I couldn't find the spirit of brotherhood
in everyday life. It seemed more "dog eat dog" than Canada. I returned
home but considered myself a Zionist nevertheless.
-
- Douglas Reed's book, "The Controversy of Zion"
(completed in 1956 but published in 1978) has helped me to understand
my ambivalent reaction to both Judaism and Israel. During the 1930's,
Reed was the "London Times" corespondent in Berlin, Vienna and
Budapest. He accompanied Anthony Eden to Moscow in 1935. When his
warnings of Hitler's warlike intentions were spiked, he quit the
newspaper in order to search for the hidden agenda.
-
- The title of Reed's book refers to an age-old
"controversy" between those Jews who believe in a loving God and those
whose image of God is spiteful and tyrannical.
-
- According to Reed, the "House of Joseph" believed
the Divine Principle is love and universal brotherhood. These Jews
were inclined to identify with their gentile neighbors and devote
their energies to the common betterment of humanity.
-
- On the other hand, the "Levites" championed a vision
of a capricious vengeful God ("Moloch") that demanded his followers
segregate themselves ("chosen people") and obey an arbitrary
law.
-
- Obeying the Lord and achieving hegemony over the
gentiles were synonymous. If the Levites didn't obey, they would be
persecuted. If they did, they would destroy the Gentiles and rule the
earth. Persecution, revenge and destruction, was an integral part of
their identity.
-
- Reed cites Deuteronomy as an example: "This day will
I begin to put the dread of thee, and the fear of thee upon the
nations...And when the Lord thy God shall deliver them before thee,
thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no
covenant with them nor show mercy unto them; neither shall thou make
marriages with them...For the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a
peculiar people unto himself above all people that are upon the face
of the earth.."
- According to Reed: "Thus, the itinerant priests
[turned] one small, captive people away from the rising idea of a God
of all men, to reinstate a bloodthirsty tribal deity and racial law,
and to send the followers of this creed on their way through the
centuries with a destructive mission...The end was to be the
triumphant consummation in Jerusalem when world dominion was to be
established on the ruins of the heathen and their kingdoms."
(3-4)
-
- The Old Testament contains both the hateful and
loving image of God, which is very confusing. Jesus championed the
loving image and denounced the priests for making arbitrary laws in
the name of the tyrannical god.
-
- Flash forward 2500 years. The Jews of the House of
Joseph were content to assimilate. The Levites, centered in Russia,
were not. Around 1850, Reed believes the Levites took over the
"Illuminati conspiracy" which eventually controlled Communism (and
possibly Zionism.)
-
- Winston Churchill described this conspiracy in "A
Struggle for the Soul of the Jewish People," (1920). He distinguished
between "national" (House of Joseph) and "international" (Levite)
Jews: "This movement among the [international] Jews is not new. From
the days of [illuminati founder] Spartacus-Weishaupt to those of Karl
Marx, and down to Trotsky (Russia), Bea Kun (Hungary), Rosa Luxembourg
(Germany) and Emma Goldman (United States), this world wide conspiracy
for the overthrow of civilization and for the reconstitution of
society on the basis of arrested development, of envious malevolence,
and impossible equality has been growing steadily."

-
- Reed describes how Zionism and the New World Order
took control of England during WWI. World Zionist leader Chaim
Weizmann lobbied Prime Minister Herbert Asquith and Army Chief Sir
William Robertson to divert soldiers from the Western Front to conquer
Palestine. When the British leaders demurred, Weizmann used money and
control of the press to install Lloyd George and Sir Henry Wilson in
their place.
-
- More than a million men were then diverted to the
Middle East. Palestine was conquered and promised to the Zionists in a
letter to Lord Rothschild in November 1917 (the Balfour Declaration).
During the same week, the Bolsheviks took power in Moscow. American
soldiers replaced the British troops on the Western Front. The
conspiracy was firing on all cylinders.
-
- The other people in Lloyd George's pro-Zionist
government -- Lord Milner, Philip Kerr (later Lord Lothian), Robert
Cecil -- were all members of the "Round Table", Cecil Rhode's secret
society dedicated to world government.
-
- Listen to what Weizmann says (in his autobiography
"Trial and Error") says about Robert Cecil: "To him the
reestablishment of a Jewish Homeland in Palestine and the organization
of the world in a great federation were complementary features of the
next step in the management of human affairs..." (Reed, 249).
-
- How do the Zionists make common cause with British
aristocrats?
-
- The aristocrats were shareholders in the Bank of
England with the Rothschilds. Central bankers wanted the New World
Order to protect this monopoly that allows them to charge billions in
interest for money they create out of thin air.
-
- The bankers and their corporate allies are
consolidating a global system of privilege and oppression. They
hoodwinked atheistic Jews, the product of the barren primitive Levite
tradition, with promises of an egalitarian "brave new world" or
"national home." Reed provides evidence from diaries and biographies
that international bankers and their allies have used Communists and
Zionists, (both Jews and gentiles) to control British, American and
world politics since WWI.
-
- Flash forward to the projected attack on
Iraq.
-
- Given Douglas Reed's perspective, Israel likely has
a secret role in the banker's bizarre NWO. It will be the seat of
world government and religion and will help to "convert" the Moslems
to "modern" ways.
-
- Americans and Israelis, indeed the whole world, are
hostage to fanatics who worship Moloch and are creating an Orwellian
tyranny ruled by a "chosen" few.
-
- Is it Jewish? Many misguided or opportunistic Jews
are part of it. So are many gentiles. The owners of the central banks
and allied corporations are both Jewish and gentile.
-
- The true Jewish tradition, like Christianity and
Islam, believes that God is synonymous with Love, Truth and Justice.
Like me, most Jews identify with the cause of humanity.
-
- God is the only Reality. No worldly power will ever
change this.
