In our second installment of this "Occupied America" series,
we noted that three conditions must obtain for a country to be considered
"occupied." The third condition was that: The occupier must dominate
the political process and must exact tribute.
We will examine whether this condition is satisfied in this third installment.
Trying to understand government policy questions with a rational and "race
blind" world view is crippling. You cannot explain why things happen
the way they do. You miss every time!
"Mr. Friedman, an official of the American Jewish Committee, shows that the history of blacks and whites fighting racial discrimination together was mainly a story of cooperation between blacks and Jews. Former Columbia professor Joel Spingarn, a Jew, chaired the NAACP shortly after its founding in 1909; for decades Jewish attorneys made up the majority of the NAACP's legal committee. A Jewish leftist named Stanley Levison was Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s closest advisor. Two-thirds of the whites who went South as Freedom Riders in 1961 were Jews, as were over half the white volunteers for Mississippi Summer of 1964.The author of the review, Mr. McConnell, then coyly notes:
"Left-wing Jews from the National Lawyers Guild were heavily involved in the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, the civil-rights youth group that emerged in 1960. Liberal Jews such as Allard Lowenstein (later a congressman) went South to volunteer their legal services for the cause of civil rights. And Jewish martyrdom is also part of the story: Andrew Goodman and Joseph Schwerner, two young New Yorkers doing voter-registration work, were assassinated on a deserted Mississippi road in 1964,with a Young black named James Chaney.
"Mr. Friedman writes as an old-fashioned liberal, with undiluted admiration for most of the Jewish activists who combated racism. Indeed, his book is an effective rebuke to black publicists who minimize the Jewish contribution to the civil-rights struggle. Yet there are times when his narrative cries out for a speculative approach."
"These days, the movement that broke down the barriers of discrimination, integrated the schools and created the industry of civil-rights litigation is invariably presented as an unmitigated triumph. Yet black anger and despair remain in many ways deeper than ever.It seems quite clear, in retrospect, that the Jews motives for fomenting the civil rights movement were bad. How do we know?
"This prompts the question whether the path of the modern civil-rights movement was the only good one available to black Americans. Incredible as it may seem, there are still scarcely any black-owned grocery stores serving Harlem or Watts. Might it have been possible for black leaders to place more emphasis on building businesses, less on filing lawsuits against discrimination?"
"A Wirthlin Worldwide poll taken on the evening of Nov. 5 for the Christian Coalition found that married women were split evenly, 44-44, between Messrs. Dole and Clinton. Whatever else, this isn't a "gap." Another poll by the Los Angeles Times showed that married voters as a group were within three points of one another when it came to choosing the President or Mr. Dole. Again, a competitive situation, but no gap. Exit poll numbers collected by the Voter News Service, a consortium of network TV and the Associated Press, are similar. They show married voters, male and female, divided 44 for Mr. Clinton and 46 for Mr. Dole."Indeed, family breakdown and "alternative life styles" produce dependent constituencies that vote for the welfare state, for Israel, and for further cultural decline. Expanding this voting block is "good for Jews." Further, the dumbing down of our population and the decline in literacy automatically yields enormous political power to the electronic media.
"Seen in this context, what was seen as an issue of male vs. female actually emerges as the nuclear family vs. something else. What that something else might be isn't automatically obvious, but some educated guesses are possible. One is that the women who went for Mr. Clinton are living in a condition of relative insecurity or entitlement."
"So how can the average American not get news about the scandals? Because the average citizen doesn't read, listen to or watch any of the above. A study of the 1992 campaign by the University of Michigan's Center for Political Studies found that 50% of voters paid no attention to newspaper articles about the campaign, and 77% paid no attention to magazine articles. This month the Pew Research Center released a survey showing that while the audiences for radio (19%) and on-line services (10%) again television is the leading source for news for a whopping portion of the public, now 72%."Modern election campaigns are won by TV advertising. These campaign techniques are designed to appeal not to policy preferences of the voter, nor to help the voter correlate those policy preferences with actual results produced by the candidate, but appeal instead to "feelings." Our American electorate is being taught to vote for the candidate who displays the right "feelings."
From the Mar. 2, 1978 Wall Street Journal, P 18, article entitled "American Jews and Jimmy Carter" by James M. Perry, we read the following:
"The Jews are the most affluent group in our society. They are the most professional - 20% of the lawyers are Jewish, 9% of the doctors.... Jews are generous with their money. The White House's Mr. Siegel previously a longtime employee of the Democratic National Committee, estimates that as much as 80% of the big gifts that sustain the party, year in and year out, come from Jews."How important is this money?
Lets begin with presidential elections. I will offer up a thesis. Since
1932, the candidate friendliest to Israel always wins. It is the only data
you need to predict the outcome of a presidential election.
The Roosevelt Elections.
Need no comment.
Truman - Dewey - 1948.
Lets start with an example from the foreword to Israel Shahak's "Jewish
History, Jewish Religion" (Pluto Press, 1994) written by Gore Vidal:
"Sometime in the late 1950's, that world class gossip and occasional historian John F. Kennedy, told me how, in 1948 Harry S. Truman had been pretty much abandoned by everyone when he came to run for president. Then an American zionist brought him two million dollars in cash, in a suitcase, aboard his whistle stop campaign train. That's why our recognition of Israel was rushed through so fast' "
"I shall not rehearse the wars and alarms of that unhappy region. But I will say that the hasty invention of Israel has poisoned the political and intellectual life of the USA, Israel's unlikely patron.
"Unlikely, because no other minority in American history has ever hijacked so much money from the American taxpayers in order to invest in a 'homeland'. It is as if the American taxpayer had been obliged to support the Pope in his reconquest of the Papal States simply because one-third of our people are Roman Catholic."
"Four years later, in 1960, the Republicans nominated Nixon. To most Jews, he was the archetypal Jew-baiter, the man who had smeared Helen Gahagan Douglas by calling her 'soft on communism,' whose supporters had reminded voters that the real name of her husband, actor Melvyn Douglas, was Hesselberg."But Kennedy was not much more appealing to Jews. From "The Samson Option" by Seymour Hersh (Vintage Books 1993), p 96:
"It was a rough session. Kennedy had just returned from a brief vacation at the family compound at Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, and it was a prominent Bostonian, Dewey D. Stone, who set the tone with the first question, as recalled by Feinberg: 'Jack, everybody knows the reputation of your father concerning Jews and Hitler. And everybody knows that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.' Kennedy's response was to the point: 'You know, my mother was part of that tree, too.' Ribicoff, who would join Kennedy's cabinet, understood the message: The sins of the father shouldn't fall on the son.' Fortunately for Kennedy, that message was enough for the men at Feinberg's apartment. Kennedy had gone upstairs to a separate room with Ribicoff to await their judgment, Feinberg recalled. The group agreed on an initial contribution of $500,000 to the presidential campaign, with more to come. I called him [Kennedy] right away,' said Feinberg. His voice broke. He got emotional with gratitude."Johnson - Goldwater - 1964.
"John Kennedy, profoundly committed to the principle of nonproliferation, continued throughout 1962 to pressure Ben-Gurion about international inspection (of Dimona, Israel's nuclear weapons plant) and continued to receive the prime minister's bland and irritating assurances that Israel had no intention of becoming an atomic power. The president was far too politically astute not to understand, as he angrily told his friend Charles Bartlett, that the Israeli 'sons of bitches lie to me constantly about their nuclear capability.' "
"By spring of 1963, Kennedy's relationship with Ben-Gurion remained at an impasse over Dimona, and the correspondence between the two became increasingly sour. None of those letters has been made public. Ben Gurion's responses were being drafted by Yuval Neeman, a physicist and defense ministry intelligence officer (Mossad) who was directly involved in the nuclear weapons program. It was not a friendly exchange' Neeman recalled. Kennedy was writing like a bully. It was brutal."Concerning Johnson we read on Page 126:
"Johnson's ties to Israel were strong long before he became President. Two of his closest advisors, lawyers Abe Fortas (later named to the Supreme Court) and Edwin L. Weisl, Sr., while not particularly religious, felt deeply about the security of Israel. Johnson also had known of Abe Feinberg and his fund-raising skills since the Truman years; Feinberg was among those who had raised money for Johnson's successful campaign for Senate.' "In contrast, Goldwater's virulent anti-communism frightened Jews. The fact that Goldwater himself was half-Jewish made matters worse. Goldwater was the kind of uncontrollable person who might get up on the stand on inauguration day and do side-by-sides from Marx and the "Protocols", or translate selected passages from the Sanhedrin (the Talmud). Goldwater posed a severe risk of unwanted disclosure. - of "spilling the beans" and placing on the table in a very public way questions about communism and communist slaughters of gentiles that might become very uncomfortable. He knew too much. Predictably, the media attack on him was utterly merciless. Sort of what you would expect if the Republicans had nominated Israel Shahak in 1996!
"There was a much deeper link, however, that had nothing to do with campaign funds: Johnson had visited the Nazi concentration camp at Dachau while on a congressional fact-finding trip at the end of World War II. His wife, Lady Bird, told a Texas historian years after Johnson's death that he had returned 'just shaken, bursting with overpowering revulsion and incredulous horror at what he had seen. Hearing about it is one thing, being there is another.' There are no photographs of the visit, but Johnson's Congressional archives contain a full set of U.S. Army photos taken two days after the liberation of the death camp on April 30, 1945."
"The Yiddish word, "taam," means Jewish soul. Hubert Humphrey had it. Even Texas's Lyndon Johnson had it." (The Sampson Option, page 117)McGovern - Nixon - 1972. The McGovern - Nixon contest was a classic because no typical American voter of that day would have had a clue what issues were actually driving events. From "Jews and American Politics" by Stephen D. Isaacs (Doubleday, 1974), Page 1:
"This was George S. McGovern's debut at trying to raise "big money" for his attempt to win the Presidency of the United States and he had a right to be nervous. The men seated around that table were big money. Indeed, billions of dollars in personal net worth was represented at the table. Laurence Tisch had invited his friends... Alfred P. Slaner ... Morris L. Levinson ... Preston Robert Tisch ... Robert Bernstein ... Saul P. Steinberg... Arthur G. Cohen ... R. Peter Strauss ..., and Meshulam Riklis..."Page 3:
"He (McGovern) said he supposed that the best way they could all get to know each other would be for him to answer questions. He remained standing and looked around the table. A slight, greying, carefully tailored man, seated several places to his right rose. He spoke with a noticeable Hebrew accent in identifying himself as Meshulam Riklis. ... 'Senator', Riklis asked, just what is your position on Israel?'The hostility of the press and electronic media toward McGovern was surprising. McGovern was the most liberal man ever nominated by the Democratic party. The biased press should have loved him if their biases were purely ideological. But they didn't. It was a simple case of this conservative observer not understanding those biases.
"The only hope for a just and permanent settlement in the Middle East, McGovern answered, looking down the table at Riklis, was not an imposed peace, but a negotiated one, worked out in a world forum like the United Nations."
"With that answer, McGovern blew most of the traditional big money from Jews in 1972, money that was to go first to Hubert Humphrey, then later into the Republican campaign in unprecedented amounts."
"Walter H. Shorenstein, a San Francisco developer who has raised millions of dollars for the Democratic Party and its candidates, isn't sure Jimmy Carter understands the way American Jews feel about Israel.... Not every leader in the American Jewish community is in such despair. But almost all of them are worried about what they perceive to be the administration's hard-line policy opposing Jewish settlements in occupied Arab territories. They are flatly- and emotionally - opposed to the administration's decision to sell advanced warplanes to both Egypt and Saudi Arabia and to cut back on the number of planes it is willing to sell to Israel. And, as a result, some of them are rethinking their commitment to Jimmy Carter."A similar viewpoint comes from a Sep. 22, 1980 Wall Street Journal article on page 1 entitled "Estranged Friends" written by Albert Hunt:
"By contrast, former President Bush and former Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir were barely on speaking terms. Mr. Shamir fought U.S. efforts to broker Mideast peace and Mr. Bush blocked $10 billion in loan guarantees for Israel. As a result, during the 15-year reign of hardline Likud governments in Israel, AIPAC officials often served as go-betweens or referees, defending Israel's government before an often hostile U.S. administration."In contrast, Clinton was and is "the best friend Israel has ever had in the White House".
"U.S. Senator Robert Dole, during an interview while he toured Israel, suggested that the United States should consider cutting its massive aid package to Israel to free up funds for emerging democracies in Eastern Europe and Latin America."Bob, you putz! You just don't talk like that about Israel. Especially if you plan to run for president!
In Occupied America - Part I - I listed the chairman and CEOs of all
of our American electronic media. It is clear that a candidate perceived
as being unfriendly to Israel, or independent of the Israel lobby, cannot
pass through the lenses of these Television Moguls and still win an election.
At least - it has never happened yet!
The sanction is not always money - that can be raised from Goyish business
interests - but rather unrelenting hostile news coverage. Control of the
electronic media is the sine-qua-non of occupation. the correlation between
its displeasure and electoral results at the presidential level is perfect.
And it will remain perfect because the public is unaware of it.
Given our current state of cultural decline and the consistent dumbing down
of Television and education, the mechanics of applying these sanctions are
shockingly simple. All the media barons need do is ensure that their employees
avoid the candidate's planned sound bites, and air his occasional gaffes
and his momentary frowns instead! No need to regale the audience with lots
of complicated arguments about policy, and no need to let the newsroom employees
know the real reason the candidate has been targeted.
It is elegantly simple and wondrously effective.
Now the objection can be raised that it is unfair or illogical to blame
all Jews for the actions of a "few activists." The problem with
this argument is that we know Jews display bloc voting of 80% to 90% for
liberal candidates who support cultural decline, racial antagonism toward
the White majority, and policies that create voting blocks dependent on
government aid. This voting pattern bespeaks hostility and racial polarization.
It is an ethnic characteristic of the group.
A second objection is that we Whites are largely responsible for our own
fate, and that objection is true. We want something for nothing. We do not
want to pay for entertainment. So we watch their "free" Television
and willingly imbibe the cultural toxins. We willingly participate in the
dumbing down of our race. Indeed, we would not be living in an Occupied
America if we simply canceled our cable subscriptions and kept our TV sets
turned off.
In "Occupied America - Part IV - Rays of Hope in an Ugly Trend"
I will sum up and conclude this series.
