Brainwashing Germany After WWII…and Zionist Implications (Part III)

by Jonas E. Alexis

We have demonstrated that the Soviet occupation of Germany, which included rape on a massive scale and which has been ignored by some of the most celebrated historians,[1] was an unparalleled chapter in the twentieth century.

However, the Soviets began to make sure that the German educational system was firmly planted in their own hands after the war.

The Soviets wanted to establish their own curriculum in schools in Germany, where school officials would have to inculcate a “firm belief in the strength of scientific socialism, in the teachings of Marx-Engels-Lenin-Stalin, [and] in the power and greatness of the Soviet Union.”[2]

Because of these ideologies, the Soviets faced a huge threat, since many teachers were leaving their positions and moving to the West, while others “sought out better-paying jobs in industry and the administration instead of continuing to face hardships in the classroom.”[3]

But even then, the Soviets insisted that “Marxist-Leninist pedagogical theory should be broadly applied” in the schools, “and that the practical accomplishments of the school system in the Soviet Union and the people’s democracies should be studied.”[4]

Even in 1948, “the schools were instructed to engage in some forms of Stalinist pedagogy, including practices of criticism and self-criticism.”[5] This “criticism” or “self-criticism” was largely a one-way street, since “newspapers that praised activists and denounced enemies were to be put up on the walls.”[6]

In other words, anything that made the Soviets look good was to be praised. The Soviets used the Nuremberg proceedings

“to perpetuate the myth that the Nazis were responsible for shooting the twenty-two thousand Polish officers and government officials whom Stalin and Beria ordered to be executed by the NKVD in 1940. The Western judges never challenged this shameful subterfuge, though the indictment against the Nazis for the killing was eventually dropped.”[7]

The fact that Stalin was responsible for killing the Polish officers was well known to historians, but the news only came out to the public in 2010![8] The sad part was that for years they put the blame on Nazi Germany.

The Soviets also rejected the term genocide as applied to political groups, since that would include people the Soviets had exterminated and sought to lay genocide only at the feet of the Nazis.[9]

In general, although the Soviets struggled to gain the confidence of prominent German intellectuals after the war, they eventually

“controlled censorship and printing, museums, galleries, libraries—in other words, every possible outlet for intellectual production. Sometimes that control was imperfect, as in the case of the universities.

“Still, it was virtually impossible for an artist, writer, or intellectual to reach his or her intended audience without the active participation of the cultural agencies supervised by the Soviets.”[10]

This allowed for assertions, flying in the face of incontrovertible evidence, like that of Boris Telpuchovski of the Institute for Marxism-Leninism in the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the USSR, who denied that Soviet soldiers committed any crimes after World War II. “The Soviet soldiers, the pupils of the Communist Party,” he asserted, “behaved humanely toward the German people.”[11]

Assertions like these were needed in order to make the Soviets look good and fashion the Nazis into the only perpetrators. The Soviets also wanted “to seek recompense from the Germans for the huge losses of Soviet industrial potential and material during World War II.”[12]

Stalin made it clear that “he intended to strip German industry as a down payment in kind towards the Soviet Union’s claim for $10 billion in reparations.” The Soviet Union’s task was “the systematic confiscation of German industry and wealth.”[13]

Even Henry Morgenthau, Jewish U.S. Secretary of the Treasury during the Roosevelt administration, set out a plan on how to deal with Germany after the war. In his book Germany is our Problem, Morgenthau postulated that one of the quickest ways to deal with Nazi war criminals was to execute them without a trial.[14]

Moreover, in order to prevent another Third Reich, argued Morgenthau, the country must be divided into four states, with “decentralization, demilitarisation, denazification and democracy” as the primary goals. Both Winston Churchill and Roosevelt gave the idea some thought and seemed to have liked it.[15] Much of the physical maltreatment of German inmates was attributed to Morgenthau.[16]

And when “land reform” began to take place, “Jews and communists were deemed the most trustworthy administrators.”[17] When east Germans were eventually allowed their own police, “they were not encouraged to step in when the crime was being committed by a Soviet soldier.”[18]

Furthermore, when the Red Army took control over a large part of Germany, re-education through propaganda was one of their main goals. Films that depicted Nazis as the most brutal were being produced.[19] The wives of former Nazi officers also suffered tremendously.

“Emmy Goring was living in a hut near her husband’s castle at Veldenstein in Franconia. She was suffering from sciatica and had a high fever. She was nonetheless incarcerated in a rat-infested prison for two weeks along with the wives of Hess, Funk and Baldur von Schirach.”[20]

Henry Morgenthau “was urging the greatest retribution against the German.”[21] Morgenthau proposed a “peace of punishment” for Germany “which involved splitting the country into four states that would be almost entirely agrarian.”

This plan was favored by the army because “it promoted the sort of chaos that suited their strategic aims: it was therefore at the heart of the crucial US Joint Chiefs of Staff document JCS 1067.”[22]

In order to develop his plan for Germany, Morgenthau worked closely with his deputy, Harry Dexter White, who was later proved to be a Communist who had worked for the Soviets for years and “one of the Soviet Union’s most important agents of influence within the United States Government.”[23]

As an agent, White was involved in “providing the Soviets with classified information” about the U.S.[24] Both Roosevelt and Truman ignored this, “in spite of FBI warnings sent to the White House in December 1945 and February 1946 that White was a Communist spy.”[25]

harry-dexter-whiteInstead, Truman promoted White as the executive director of the International Monetary Fund, a move that infuriated many.[26]

A number U.S. officials began to understand that Morgenthau, who supported to Soviet Union, was after the Germans as well. Former prime minister of Germany Konrad Adenauer declared that the plan was a “crime against humanity,” while Secretary of War Henry Stimson labeled it “Jewish vengeance.”[27] Morgenthau, according to his son, was an admirer of the Soviets:

“Morgenthau himself had long harbored an admiration for the Soviets. Like many liberals in the Post-World War I era, he had a rather romantic view of the Soviets as liberators of the Russian people from czarist tyranny…

“My father had taken the lead in negotiating the resumption of US-USSR diplomatic relations.”[28]

Josiah DuBois, a member of the Treasury, recounted to Morgenthau’s son,

“I can tell you how the Morgenthau Plan got started,” DuBois confided. “On the way over in the plane, White and your dad sat together, and though I wasn’t deliberately eavesdropping, it was obvious from the conversation that what they were talking about was the whole notion of how we should get reparations from Germany.

“And by the time we arrived in England, there was no question in my mind that your dad was at this point completely convinced that the approach that the State Department has suggested was the wrong approach…

“So at that point he began pushing what later became known as the so-called Morgenthau Plan for Germany, and wherever he went, whoever he talked to, he would hammer this point home.”[29]

In the early 1900s the Unites States was aware that a number of Jewish moguls were supporting the Bolshevik movement, so they had reason to be suspicious about Morgenthau’s plan for Germany. General George Patton declared that “the Red Army was the real threat and the Germans the real friends.”

Patton also “protested against the pro-Jewish clout in the military government. In his opinion, the early American postwar policies were the result of a conspiracy of international bankers, labor leaders, Jews and Communists, whereas he regarded the Germans as potential allies against the adversary in the East.”[30]

Stalin, of course, was a supporter of the Morgenthau Plan, but by February 1945, the plan was thwarted.[31] Yet before it died, Morgenthau fought tooth and nail to implement it in Germany. When Harry Dexter White suggested that the coal mines of the Ruhr should not be destroyed, Morgenthau raged at him, revealing his true plan for Germany:

“Harry, you can’t sell it to me at all…You just can’t sell it to me…The only thing you can sell me, or I will have any part of it, is the complete shut-down of the Ruhr…Just strip it. I don’t care what happens to the population…

“I would take every mine, every mill and factory and wreck it…Steel, coal, everything. Just close it down…I am for destroying it first and we will worry about the population second.”[32]

Secretary of War Henry Stimson was not happy about what Morgenthau planned to do and responded vigorously to Morgenthau and others who wanted to follow the plan.[33]

Children in Germany being brainwashed

In short, the Talmudic/theological weltanschauung has profound historical, economic, and moral implications. One simply cannot understand history and current events—most specifically the conflict in the Ukraine—without a full grasp of that historical and Talmudic conflict, which says that the goyim ought to serve the dreadful few.

And once again this Talmudic and Rabbinic interpretation has been a recurring theme throughout history, most specifically during the Middle Ages. As Jewish scholar Israel Jacob Yuval of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem has pointed out, Kalonymus ben Yehudah articulated the view that “every drop of blood of Jews killed by Gentiles is recorded in a divine ‘ledger’ in the form of a scarlet garment.”[34]

Moreover, the Midrash tells us that God will pour His wrath upon the nations for every single Jew that the Goyim killed—and many rabbis during the Middle Ages postulated the same thing.[35]

Yuval continues, “every lamentation concludes with a prayer for vengeance against the Gentiles as part of the long-awaited process of redemption.”[36]

The word “redemption” here has been changed to two sophisticated terms in our modern age: democracy and freedom. How was Iraq destroyed? Democracy and freedom. David Horowitz himself wrote,

“This is a war [the Iraq war] whose aims and purposes make it very hard to understand how anyone who is a supporter of human rights, or who believes in freedom, could be against it. In four years, George Bush has liberated nearly 50 million people in two Islamic countries.

“He has stopped the filling of mass graves and closed down the torture chambers of an oppressive regime. He has encouraged the Iraqis and the people of Afghanistan to begin a political process that give them rights they have not enjoyed in 5,000 years.”

How was Gaddafi dragged on the streets of Libya and in the process sexually tortured? Democracy. How does America continue to drop drones and slaughter innocent civilians in places like Afghanistan? Democracy.

How did the Zionist world literally cook up evidence against Assad? Democracy. How is Putin the “New Hitler” and Russia the new evil empire?[37] Democracy. How can Victoria Nuland spend billions upon billions of dollars in the Ukraine supporting neo-Nazis while places like California are littered with poverty?[38] Democracy.

How did the Zionist world literally fake a document saying that Jews were being forced to register in Russia? Democracy. Why does the Muslim world hate U.S. foreign policy? It is because we have democracy and freedom and they do not. As puppet George W. Bush put it in 2001:

“Americans are asking, why do they hate us? They hate what we see right here in this chamber—a democratically elected government. Their leaders are self-appointed. They hate our freedoms—our freedom of religion, our freedoms of speech, our freedom to vote and assemble and disagree with each other.

“They want to overthrow existing governments in many Muslim countries, such as Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan. They want to drive Israel out of the Middle East. They want to drive Christians and Jews out of vast regions of Asia and Africa.”

The awful truth about the three stooges

What we are seeing is that the dreadful few will use just about anything to justify their crimes against the human race. And some dumb goyim will be more than happy to help bring that about.

For example, Rand Paul has recently teamed up with Rupert Murdoch, presumably to help his image during the 2016 presidential election.[39] Caroline B. Glick of the Jerusalem Post, a flaming Zionist, has declared that Paul is a strong supporter of Israel and has lobbied against the Palestinians.[40]

But who is really Rupert Murdoch, and why did Rand Paul invite him for dinner and a cup of tea?

Recall that Murdoch—who purchased the San Antonio Express-News in 1973, the New York Post in 1976 and 20th Century Fox in 1984, which later produced The Simpsons and The X-Files—worked closely with Israelis to destroy rival competitors.[41] Murdoch told a Jewish gathering at the Christians United for Israel (founded by John Hagee) in November of last year,

“You know as I do that as Israel goes, so goes […] our morality and our very existence as freedom loving citizens of the world. This beleaguered nation and its people are beacons of hope and justice…their enemies are our enemies, glorifiers of death, seeking to impose their bloody doctrine through violence.”

Murdoch also bought and/or cooperated with major neoconservative and media outlets such as CBS, the Weekly Standard, etc.

“In late 2003, Murdoch acquired a 34 percent stake in Hughes Electronics, the operator of the largest American satellite TV system, DirecTV, from General Motors for $6 billion (USD).[28]His Fox movie studio would go on to have global hits with Titanic and Avatar…

“On 20 July 2005, News Corporation bought Intermix Media Inc., which held Myspace, Imagine Games Network and other social networking-themed websites, for $580 million USD, making Murdoch a major player in online media concerns.[94]

“In June 2011, it sold off Myspace for US$35 million.[95] On 11 September 2005, News Corporation announced that it would buy IGN Entertainment for $650 million (USD).

“In 2007, Murdoch acquired Dow Jones,[98][99] which gave him such publications as The Wall Street Journal, Barron’s Magazine, the Far Eastern Economic Review(based in Hong Kong) and SmartMoney”[42]

Murdoch, like other Jewish moguls such as Sheldon Adelson, Haim Saban, Goldman Sachs, supported both Democrats and Republicans—so long that they both supported Israel and its policies.

“On 8 May 2006, the Financial Times reported that Murdoch would be hosting a fund-raiser for Senator Hillary Clinton‘s (D-New York) Senate re-election campaign.

“In a 2008 interview with Walt Mossberg, Murdoch was asked whether he had ‘anything to do with the New York Post‘s endorsement of Barack Obama in the democratic primaries.’

“Without hesitating, Murdoch replied, ‘Yeah. He is a rock star. It’s fantastic. I love what he is saying about education. I don’t think he will win Florida… but he will win in Ohio and the election. I am anxious to meet him. I want to see if he will walk the walk.’ Murdoch is a strong supporter of Israel and its domestic policies.

“In 2010 News Corporation gave $1 million to the Republican Governors Association and $1 million to the conservative U.S. Chamber of Commerce.[106][107][108] Murdoch also served on the board of directors of the libertarian Cato Institute.[109] He is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.

“Murdoch is a supporter of more open immigration policies in western nations generally.

“In the United States, Murdoch and chief executives from several major corporations including Hewlett-Packard, Boeing and Disney joined New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg to form the Partnership for a New American Economy to advocate ‘for immigration reform – including a path to legal status for all undocumented immigrants now in the United States.’”[43]

We know that Murdoch’s company was involved in hacking as well,[44] although the Murdoch family denied they were aware of the illegal activity.[45]

Just two days after Murdoch’s son James resigned as chairman of Sky News, the company admitted that they were involved in hacking into emails.

The company admitted that the hacking was illegal, but said it was authorized by its executives,[46] which leads one to conclude that the executives—including Murdoch’s son, James—knew what they were doing.

This was not just one incident, but involved “phone hacking, e-mail hacking and paying bribes to public officials at two Murdoch-owned tabloids, The Sun and the now-defunct News of the World.”[47]

Right after the public was made aware of these activities, protesters outside a London court put out signs which said “End the Murdoch Mafia.”[48]

“On 3 July 2013 Exaro and Channel 4 news broke the story of a secretly recorded tape. The tape was recorded by Sun journalists and in it Murdoch can be heard telling them that the whole investigation was one big fuss over nothing, and that he, or his successors, would take care of any journalists who went to prison.”[49]

It was later discovered that Rebekah Brooks, former head of the Murdoch newspaper and a close friend of Prime Minister David Cameron, was charged “with perverting the course of justice in the phone hacking scandal.”

It was said that Brooks, who has been arrested twice for the same charges, “tried to hide or destroy files and equipment”[50] in order to absolve herself and the company from illegal activities.

Brooks, along with another Murdoch associate named Andy Coulson, was to be charged with paying $160,000 in bribes to public officials.[51] Yet even after all this, Brooks was found “not guilty.”[52] Right after she resigned from her hacking job, Brooks got a whopping $17.5 million exit package.[53]

In other words, if you commit a crime for the Zionists in the Jewish Century, more than likely you will be rewarded for doing so. Bush, Cheney, Rice, and others committed carnage in Iraq, but they all became best-sellers, continuing to cash in on the Zionist system.

Elliott Abrams got caught committing felony,[54] but he got to publish a book with Cambridge University Press. Israel can “steal U.S. secrets under the cover of trade missions and joint defense technology contracts”[55] and can even continue its espionage activities against the U.S,[56] but America continues to give the terrorist state $3 billion every year.

In short, those who really benefits from the Zionist ideology in the Jewish Century are the dreadful few and the dumb goyim and puppet masters who have already given allegiance to the dreadful few.

Some of those dumb goyim, like Tony Blair in particular, really enjoy the Zionist life precisely because they can get money, power, and free sex. For example, in 2011,

“Jurors at Britain’s phone-hacking trial were told…that former Prime Minister Tony Blair allegedly offered to work as an unofficial adviser to Rupert Murdoch as revelations of illegal phone hacking engulfed the mogul’s media empire….

“Brooks also writes that Blair ‘is available for you, KRM (Rupert Murdoch) and me as an unofficial adviser, but needs to be between us.’”[57]

It is said that Blair got $100,000 from Murdoch in 2011, but Murdoch almost got a heart attack when he found out that Blair was flirting with his third wife, Wendi Deng. “I was shocked,” said Murdoch. “And then, you know, a week later I filed. As soon as I could.”

Murdoch discovered too late that the sexual fluidity between Blair and Deng ran deep, and there was nothing old Murdoch could do about it.

“The Australian media mogul also revealed he was ‘shocked’ when he first read his ex-wife’s diary entries in which she described having ‘warm feelings’ comparable to a ‘crush’ on Blair, who allegedly stayed at the ranch with Deng in October 2012 and April 2013 while the 83-year-old was overseas…

“Details of lovestruck Deng’s note, in which she praised Blair’s ‘good body,’ his ‘really, really good legs’ and even his ‘butt’ were revealed by Vanity Fair in February.

“It said staff at Murdoch’s home were uneasy when Blair arrived and tried to find her. The magazine claimed they told him Deng had gone to the master bedroom, but ‘by the time they could tell her, Blair was looking for her, they found Blair walking into the master bedroom and closing the door behind him.’

“On another occasion ‘they were feeding each other during dinner, which made the staff uncomfortable.’”

It was Murdoch who helped put Blair in charge since 1997.[58] Vanity Fair declared that

“through the power of The Sun, and his other London newspapers, the Times and News of the World, Murdoch had virtually put Blair into office….

“From 1997 to 2007, the two men virtually ran Great Britain, as the press lord supported the politician through his various news operations, particularly The Sun, the most powerful newspaper in British elections.

“‘No one could challenge them; they made each other unassailable,’ says a longtime observer. Blair won the elections of 1997, 2001, and 2005, and Murdoch, according to the Daily Mail, became the unofficial ‘24th member’ of Blair’s New Labour Cabinet.

“‘The understanding between New Labour and Blair and News Corp. was that if they were given a pretty fair rein to pursue their business interests, that we would receive political support through those newspapers,’ the Daily Mail quoted Lance Price, a former member of Blair’s communications team, as saying.”[59]

But that amicable friendship came to an abrupt end when Blair showed Murdoch that he could sleep with Deng as well. Blair, like Pentheus in Euripides’ The Bacchae who was obsessed with seeing naked women dancing on the mountainside, fell under Deng’s sexual spell, charm and flattery.

“‘Mr. Blair was reluctant at first,’ says someone who has worked in a Murdoch family home. “They were all mutual friends; there was no reason Mr. Murdoch wouldn’t have welcomed Mr. Blair into his home.

“But one day Mr. Blair arrived and Mrs. Murdoch was sort of being very flirtatious. She was charming him. He asked the staff, ‘When is Mr. Murdoch going to arrive?’ And when he was told, ‘Tomorrow night,’ Mr. Blair rolled his eyes and gave a panicked look.”[60]

Deng, who is currently writing a memoir, declared in her note,

“Oh, shit, oh, shit. Whatever why I’m so missing Tony. Because he is so charming and his clothes are so good. He has such good body and he has really really good legs Butt . . . And he is slim tall and good skin. Pierce blue eyes which I love. Love his eyes. Also I love his power on the stage . . . and what else and what else and what else . . . ”[61]

As it turned out, Murdoch—who said that George W. Bush was “acting morally” and “very correctly”[62] by invading Iraq—was a sort of Jewish political messiah who wanted to establish heaven on earth, and Tony Blair was a kind of John the Baptist in England.

This form of Jewish messianic politics has a long history, and Blair—like Bush, Rice, Cheney, Powell, and Rumsfeld in the U.S.—just happened to be one of the puppets who would help bring that messianic fervor in the Middle East.

And lots of people have to die and cities and countries have to turn into ashes for the Jewish messianic politics to materialize. Back in 2008, Tony Blair’s sister in law, Lauren Booth, said that Gaza is

“the largest concentration camp in the world today. I was startled that the Israelis agreed to this.”

Many neoconservatives are indirectly and subtly saying similar things. For example, Cheryl Benard of the National Interest and adjunct researcher with the RAND Corporation has declared,

“In Iraq, Syria and Egypt, Christians face a relentless campaign of murder, kidnapping, arson, bombings and persecution. In Turkey, Lebanon and Palestine, the anti-Christian violence is less overt, but there, too, intimidation and discrimination have fueled a huge exodus…

“A few decades ago, 20 percent of the Middle East was Christian; today that is down to 4 percent. Iraq alone has lost 80 percent of its Christians during just the last ten years. By any standard, this is ethnic cleansing.

“But the numbers, however dramatic, can’t express the human cost. The sectarian war and the random violence in Iraq and Syria are bad enough, but Christians face special targeting.

“Their churches are regularly mortared and firebombed, congregants killed by suicide bombers or assassins just for attending mass. In Iraq, I met priests who had been kidnapped, tortured and beaten.

“Their teeth had been knocked out with revolver handles and their spines broken with hammer blows, until finally, a ransom was scraped together and they were dumped on the street half-dead.”[63]

But Benard put all the blame at the feet of “Islamic extremists and fundamentalists,” absolving the neoconservatives from any responsibility whatsoever. Benard could never bring herself to the fact that this sort of ethnic cleansing was virtually unknown during Saddam Hussein.

Yet instead of pleading with the neoconservatives to stop their perpetual wars, which is largely the cause of violence in the Middle East, Benard wants the pope to take actions very quickly:

“And what is Rome doing about all of this? Not very much. One almost gets the impression that religious persecution is too messy for today’s modern, ecumenical church.

“Consider how it has sanitized sainthood. Formerly, the path to sainthood was martyrdom—you became a saint by enduring agonizing trials and torments before being killed in horrific ways, all the while holding firm to your faith. Today you can live out your life in comfort, die a natural death, then heal an ailing person from beyond the grave, and be declared a saint.

“That’s much more civilized, but it obscures the harsh fact that Christians are still being hunted, tormented and killed in horrific ways, yet are heroically holding steadfast to the faith. Instead of being an inspiration, one feels that they are seen as a sort of embarrassing blemish on the pretty contemporary face of interfaith dialogue.”[64]

Point well taken. Pope Francis indeed is not doing very much because he has not been going back to the essential teachings of the Church on the Jewish question, which is clearly formulated in Sicut Judaeis non.

According to that teaching, Jews are not to be subjected to violence and hatred, but they are not above the law and they ought not to subvert both the moral and political order by plundering and reducing the goyim into what Civilta Cattolica later called “a kind of moral nothingness, which contradicts the basic principles of natural law.”[65] Sicut Judaeis non declared:

“We decree that no Christian shall use violence to force them to be baptized as long as they are unwilling and refuse, but that if anyone of them seeks refuge among the Christians of his own free will and by reason of his faith, after his willingness has become quite clear shall he be made a Christian without subjecting himself to any calumny.

“For surely none can be believed to possess the true faith of a Christian who is known to have come to Christian baptism not willingly, and even against his wishes.

“Moreover, without the authority of the land, no Christian shall presume to wound their persons, or kill [them] or rob them of their money, or change the good custom which they have thus far enjoyed in the places where they live.

“Furthermore, while they celebrate festivals, no one shall disturb them in any way by means of sticks or stones, nor exact from any of them forced service, except that which they have been accustomed to perform from ancient times.

“In opposition to the wickedness and avarice of evil men in these matters, we decree that no one shall presume to desecrate or reduce the cemetery of the Jews, or, with the object of extorting money, to exhume bodies there buried.

“If anyone, however, after being acquainted with the contents of this decree, should presume to act in defiance of it (which God forbid), he shall suffer loss of honour and office, or he shall be restrained by the penalty of excommunication, unless he shall have made proper amends for his presumption.”[66]

Benard turned out to be right: Pope Francis needs to do something. And if Rome actually picks up where dozens of popes during the Middle Ages left off with respect to the Jewish question, perpetual wars and political subversion will cease to exist.

Perhaps it is high time for Pope Francis to stop taking pictures, stop saying “Who am I to judge?” on important issues, stop landing on the cover of Time Magazine as their “Person of the Year,” and get real.

During his first few months in office, Pope Francis rightly attacked unfettered capitalism as “a new tyranny.” He continued,

“How can it be that it is not a news item when an elderly homeless person dies of exposure, but it is news when the stock market loses 2 points?…

“Human beings are themselves considered consumer goods to be used and then discarded. We have created a ‘disposable’ culture which is now spreading. It is no longer simply about exploitation and oppression, but something new.

“Exclusion ultimately has to do with what it means to be a part of the society in which we live; those excluded are no longer society’s underside or its fringes or its disenfranchised – they are no longer even a part of it. The excluded are not the ‘exploited’ but the outcast, the ‘leftovers.’

“In this context, some people continue to defend trickle-down theories which assume that economic growth, encouraged by a free market, will inevitably succeed in bringing about greater justice and inclusiveness in the world.

“This opinion, which has never been confirmed by the facts, expresses a crude and naïve trust in the goodness of those wielding economic power and in the sacralized workings of the prevailing economic system. Meanwhile, the excluded are still waiting.

“To sustain a lifestyle which excludes others, or to sustain enthusiasm for that selfish ideal, a globalization of indifference has developed. Almost without being aware of it, we end up being incapable of feeling compassion at the outcry of the poor, weeping for other people’s pain, and feeling a need to help them, as though all this were someone else’s responsibility and not our own.

“The culture of prosperity deadens us; we are thrilled if the market offers us something new to purchase; and in the meantime all those lives stunted for lack of opportunity seem a mere spectacle; they fail to move us.

“Today everything comes under the law of competition and the survival of the fittest, where the powerful feed upon the powerless. Such an economy kills.”[67]

So far, so good. But Pope Francis never told us who is really pushing this “disposable culture” in which the dreadful few get to do what they want. Perhaps it will behoove him to read Werner Sombart’s The Jews and Modern Capitalism or even Jerry Z. Muller’s Capitalism and the Jews.

Muller, a Jewish professor, cites throughout the book people like Milton Friedman saying that capitalism has been good for the Jews.

If the dreadful few exert enormous power over the world, the Church is largely to be blamed precisely because she ceases to be salt and light.

Jewish revolutionaries sought to destroy Poland through Communism in the twentieth century, but with the help of the Church, Poland drove Communism out.[68] Even Anne Applebaum of the Washington Post acknowledged back in 2005 that

“the pope [John Paul II] made two contributions to the defeat of totalitarian communism, a system in which the state claimed ownership of all or most physical property—factories, farms, houses—and also held a monopoly on intellectual life.

“No one was allowed to own a private business, in other words, and no one was allowed to express belief in any philosophy besides Marxism.

“The church, first in Poland and then elsewhere, broke these two monopolies, offering people a safe place to meet and intellectually offering them an alternative way of thinking about the world.”[69]

Applebaum declared that it was priests who helped “to create what we now call ‘civil society…’”[70]

Heaven now waits for the Church’s reply. When the Church responds, the dreadful few will cease to have power over us, and double standards will plummet.

Recently, Michael Setiawan, a former New York police officer, was caught on camera spray-painting “anti-Semitic messages on more than a dozen cars and several buildings in Brooklyn.”[71]

The New York Times and other media outlets, of course, were quick to spread the news all over the world. Yet just a few days after the event, the Times of Israel reported,

“The Rumanian Orthodox Church on Hahoma Hashlishit street in Jerusalem was defaced overnight Thursday-Friday, in yet another suspected ‘price tag’ hate crime attack, police said Friday, in the latest incident in a wave of both anti-Christian and anti-Arab graffiti and vandalism that has swept the country in recent weeks.

“The words ‘price tag,’ ‘Jesus is garbage’ and ‘King David for the Jews,’ were found spray-painted on the site’s walls.”

This has been a consistent pattern over the years, and none of that got the attention of the New York Times and much of the Zionist world. In fact, one Oxford scholar by the name of Diarmaid MacCulloch was so upset that he wrote last year,

“At the heart of the problems in the Middle East is seven decades of unresolved conflict between Israel and Palestine, and I notice that when American politicians discuss those matters, they seem to assume that all Palestinians, and indeed all Arabs, are Muslims.

“Not so: there are Christians there too, like the Syriac Orthodox Patriarch. They are the first Christians; once they were the future of Christianity, rather than the Churches of the West, Catholics, Protestants or even Orthodox (because those whom we Westerners call Orthodox Christians officially regard most of the Eastern Churches as Unorthodox!). Why this blindness, why this silence?

“The problem is a Protestant one, going right back to sixteenth-century Reformation. From Martin Luther onwards, many Protestants have eagerly been awaiting an imminent end to the world, the return of Christ in glory.

“Reading the Bible, it’s easy to link this to the idea that a necessary precondition for Christ to return is that his ancient people the Jews convert to the Christian faith; and so many Protestants have sought the right conditions for that to happen.

“It was one of the reasons that the Puritan statesman Oliver Cromwell agreed to the readmission of the Jews to England in the 1650s, after more than three centuries of expulsion; so the English could convert them.

“But by the nineteenth century there was a further thought: the Jews must return to their Promised Land of Israel. In 1846 there was founded a worldwide Evangelical Alliance.

“One of its main concerns was to return Jews to Palestine and convert them there; German and British Evangelicals even backed the setting-up of a new Anglican bishopric in Jerusalem to provide for the conversion (the first bishop was indeed a converted Jewish rabbi).

“This was an unprecedentedly practical attempt to hasten on the Last Days, that recurrent Protestant preoccupation…

“Now American Evangelicals made common cause with the Jewish community in the United States, and they seemed to care little if at all for the opinions or the sufferings of their fellow-Christians in the ancient Churches of the Middle East.

“Israeli politicians have not been slow to exploit this political windfall, caring little for the fact that Evangelical apocalypticism expected the conversion of the Jews to Christianity.

“American foreign policy has for decades seemed locked into hardly questioning its support for the State of Israel, even though the consequences for its relations with the Arab and Muslim world, and with others, are almost entirely negative.

“They have been particularly dire for the traditional Christianities of the Middle East. Christian communities were already generally in steep decline in numbers through the region, and Israel/Palestine in particular, even before the present Syrian and Egyptian crises.

“Caught between the animosities of a politics which has other concerns, Arab Christians have every incentive to leave, whenever they can, for exile in less dangerous lands, ending a connection with homelands which goes directly back to the first generations of the followers of Christ.

“It is easy for them to feel abandoned and betrayed by the Christian-based cultures of the West. When will this Western silence end?”[72]

Right here we can dismiss Raymond Ibrahim’s book Crucified Again: Exposing Islam’s New War on Christians, which propounds ad nauseam that Islam is actually the real cause of Christian persecutions in the Middle East.

As a Jewish ideologue, Ibrahim could never bring himself to the fact that Christians and Muslim lived in peaceful harmony in the past.

In fact, one of Egypt’s major universities, Fuad I University (later called Cairo Univeristy), was founded by Christians and was “the first Western-style educational institution in the Arab world.”[73]

Even today, a small part of the Muslim and Christian population has found a way to co-exist in places like Syria without any bloodshed or physical persecution under al-Assad.[74]

There was also a time that both Jews and Christians lived in peaceful harmony. Whenever Jews were not involved in subversive movements, they were highly praised among society.

Heinrich Graetz declares that in the twelfth century, “During the siege of Worms, Jews fought side by side with Christians, and the rabbi even permitted them to use weapons on the Sabbath for the purpose of defense.”[75]

Jewish historian Robert Chazan writes something quite similar, stating that although Jewish life in Europe was quite complex,

“Some evidence of normal and tranquil Jewish-Christian relations survives, although the sources—as always—tend to highlight disruption rather than tranquility and normalcy…Christians are on occasion depicted as assisting Jewish neighbors at moments of crisis…

“Jewish relations with the authorities were particularly warm…Christian sources preserve a number of references to cordial relations between the Jews and the bishops of various German cities.”[76]

It was actually the neoconservatives—along with Christian Zionism—that actually destroyed that cultural moment and peaceful harmony in the twentieth century in particular.

When Ibrahim starts addressing these issues, we will start taking him seriously. If he is going to dance from one premise to the next without a deep psychological analysis of the neoconservative movement and the Zionist world, then we should treat his book as scholarly and hopelessly worthless.

CITATIONS

[1] Take for example Richard Overy, one of the most prolific and highly praised historians of our time. Yet in his massive book Why the Allies Won, he never mentions the rape problem—not even one time! Richard Overy, Why the Allies Won (New York: W. W. Norton, 1997). Similarly, David Miller avoids this issue altogether in his popular book series Fighting Men of World War II. The word “rape” appears twice in Robert M. Edsel’s book The Monuments Men: Allied Heroes, Nazi Thieves, and the Greatest Treasure Hunt in History, but it never addresses the actual issue. Robert M. Edsel, The Monuments Men: Allied Heroes, Nazi Thieves, and the Greatest Treasure Hunt in History (New York: Hachette Book Group, 2009), 360.
