Jews are the financial engine of the left

In his book Why Are Jews Liberals?, Norman Podhoretz states that Jews fund the left in America. He states it as a rather obvious truth — so obvious that it doesn’t really require a great deal of research.

And he is not writing simply about explicitly Jewish activist organizations like the ADL, but also to organizations like the ACLU and the $PLC. In fact, in his 1996 book Jewish Power: Inside the American Jewish Establishment, J. J. Goldberg pointed out that “within the world of liberal organizations like the ACLU and People for the American Way, Jewish influence is so profound that non-Jews sometimes blur the distinction between them and the formal Jewish community.”

For example, SUSPS, an environmentalist activist group attempting to influence  the Sierra Club  to oppose immigration, recounts the notorious donations north of $100 million by David Gelbaum to the Sierra Club on condition that they not oppose immigration. As Gelbaum famously said to the president of the Sierra Club, “”I did tell [Sierra Club President] Carl Pope in 1994 or 1995 that if they ever came out anti-immigration, they would never get a dollar from me.”

It turns out that Gelbaum is also a major donor to the ACLU — more than $20 million annually. The New York Times reports that Gelbaum will not be making his donation this year. But the gap will be at least partially filled: “Donors like the Leon Levy Foundation, the Open Society Institute [funded by George Soros], Peter B. Lewis and John Sperling had stepped up with pledges totaling $23 million spread over the next three years.”

The only thing these sources have in common is Jewishness. Sperling, Soros, and Lewis are on an authoritative list of the 139 Jews on the 2009 Forbes 400 list of wealthiest  Americans;  Leon Levy was also Jewish, not making the list only because he died in his 70s with a net worth of around a billion dollars (which would qualify him for the list today). The Times report also notes that donations had been hurt because some foundations had been harmed by the Bernie Madoff fiasco — also presumably Jewish money.

Several implications:

Lists of wealthiest Americans underestimate Jewish wealth because people like Levy don’t appear on lists of wealthy people even though their money is still being used to advance Jewish causes.

Secondly, Jews are very good at using their financial power to advance their ethnic interests. One of the biggest problems for European-Americans is that wealthy non-Jews seem far more interested in funding the opera or getting their name on a building at the local university than in helping their people. A good example is the Chandler family who formerly owned the L. A. Times. They had no interest in the media, and the company is now controlled by Sam Zell, who is Jewish. The family remains wealthy but in general seems to be involved in finding fun and interesting ways to spend their time (one of them flies around the world to attend the opera; another is into building outsize model trains) rather than influencing the world.

Finally, in researching this, I couldn’t help but notice that Lewis, Soros, and Sperling have gotten together previously. The Wikipedia entry for Sperling notes, “Together with George Soros, and Peter Lewis of Progressive Insurance, Sperling raised considerable amounts of money for drug [legalization] and other related causes, especially during the 2004 presidential campaign.” Sperling also exhibits the Jewish tendency for disdain of the traditional culture of America. The Wikipedia entry includes a comment on his book The Great Divide: Retro vs. Metro America: “One America, to judge from the book’s illustrations, … lives in ‘vibrant’ cities with ballet troupes, super-creative Frank Gehry buildings and quiet, tasteful religious ritual; the other relies on contemptible extraction industries (oil, gas and coal) and inhabits a world of white supremacy and monster truck shows and religious ceremonies in which beefy men in cheap clothes scream incomprehensibly at one another.”

Not much doubt what side of the culture wars Sperling (and Lewis and Soros) are on.

    Jews aren’t just the financial engine of the Left, they ARE the Left. The liberal-left would look nothing like it does today without Jews. If there still was a Democratic party, I can’t see it being anything other than a very conservative, maybe even Darwinian, socialist party. No special privileges for minorities–none of that stuff, none of that nonsense would even be on the radar. America would be an entirely different country without Jews. A much better and much more civilized one…in my opinion.

    A more expansive treatment of the subject is needed. I would be particularly interested in learning more about the Jewish financial contribution to the NAACP, Urban League, MALDEF, and NCLR.

    However, Jews also run the neocon right, the anti-Muslim elements of the USA armed forces, etc.

    The Right and the Left are both puppets of plutocracy.

      You are absolutely right. It would be a good topic for a detailed study. I have written about the neocons, but a good study of the general issue would be well worth the time. Kevin M

    Essentially, as a result of the social/cultural, economic and political subversion of historic White America, as outlined by Kmac and others, Anglo America has become an occupied nation, an emasculated, domesticated, de facto Jewish colony.

    The remark about people like Levy not appearing on wealthiest Americans or other lists is interesting, in that it should be pointed out that the jewish banking families, wealthy beyond comprehension because of the fraud perpetrated by the Fed in the US among other criminal machinations, never appear on any “Wealthiest” lists.

      How about a link, Frank? A little explosion now and then is good for the soul.

    Quite right, Kevin, but you pass by Podhoretz’s rather arch profession of surprise and even incomprehension of the leftist bias. He refuses to acknowledge the obvious: Jews, at least their more powerful Zionist congeners, MUST align with the left rather than the rich and conservative right because only under the left’s paternalistic wing can they advance themselves as eternal victims rather than what their intelligence and cunning have made them, perennial opportunists and kingpins.

    Prof. MacDonald: You can access Greg Felton’s lecture by going to google or you tube and putting his name and his book The Host and the Parasite. He can also be found at Rense.com. Frank Martino
