The Limerick “pogrom”: Creating Jewish victimhood

Andrew Joyce


A very curious article has appeared in the March 14th edition of the UK Daily Mail (“Goldman Sachs’ touch of darkness“), a comment on Greg Smith’s recent indictment of the Goldman Sachs’ culture of greed and client exploitation. The article in question was written by one Alex Brummer, a journalist who writes for both the Daily Mail and the London-based Jewish Chronicle. Brummer’s specialty, it seems, is economic matters and he has a number of strange points to make in relation to the recent revelations that Goldman Sachs has been referring to its clients as “muppets” for some time.  The article begins by stating that the bank has been “sapped of its confidence” following a series of scandals “during and after the great financial panic,” under the chairmanship of Lloyd Blankfein.

If that doesn’t pull at your heartstrings, Brummer goes on to state that “the most enduring image of Blankfein era is that of the great, vampire squid drawn in an excoriating article in Rolling Stone magazine in 2010. What Rolling Stone does not seem to have realised is that this was a rerun of a notoriously anti-Semitic campaign by the late 19th-century polemicist ‘Coin’ Harvey against the Rothschild family. Whatever mistakes Blankfein and Goldman may have made, it does not deserve that.” (Matt Taibbi’s actual words, from his article “The Great American Bubble Machine: From tech stocks to high gas prices, Goldman Sachs has engineered every major market manipulation since the Great Depression“:  ”The first thing you need to know about Goldman Sachs is that it’s everywhere. The world’s most powerful investment bank is a great vampire squid wrapped around the face of humanity, relentlessly jamming its blood funnel into anything that smells like money.”

The crimes of Goldman Sachs include promoting mortgage-backed security investments created by people whom Goldman knew were betting against them, “seeking to assist the Greek government in masking its levels of borrowing in an effort to circumvent euroland deficit rules,” and dumping “billions of dollars of toxic sub-prime mortgage debt on the markets when it knew it to be worthless.” But Brummer frames these crimes as “mistakes”—more like adolescent indiscretions than real crimes, and is horrified that someone like Taibbi would link  Goldman Sachs’ behavior to classic anti-Jewish imagery. (The JTA reminds us how to think about Jews and financial crimes by citing Michael Kinsley’s exculpatory “How to think about: Jewish Bankers “; Kevin MacDonald replies:  ”Does Jewish financial misbehavior have anything to do with being Jewish?“).

The overriding opinion expressed in Brummer’s article is that Goldman Sachs did a few naughty things, but is now “looking in on itself and for a new, more ethical model,” and has since become the victim of anti-Semitic propaganda. The article is a classic example of Jewish strategies which employ the adoption of Jewish victimhood in order to mask Jewish crime or misbehavior. It recalls to my memory an obscure and little known incident – the so-called “Limerick Pogrom.”

Although Jewish settlements had developed in the provinces of Britain and Ireland since the readmission of the Jews in 1656, by the middle of the nineteenth century most of these communities remained small, tightly organised, and inconspicuous. They were rarely, if ever, troubled by their non-Jewish neighbours. The membership of these communities outside London tended to consist of moderately wealthy traders in items such as furs, jewelry, and other imported luxury goods. However, at the dawn of the twentieth-century, many of these communities were transformed by the immigration of large numbers of Jews from Eastern Europe who in varying degrees claimed to be fleeing persecution in Russia, or seeking new economic opportunities. While the majority of these new immigrants settled in London or migrated onwards to the United States, a significant number also fanned out across Britain, or made their way to Ireland.

The draw of new economic opportunities led to the establishment of small communities of Jews in areas that had never previously had Jewish inhabitants. The scale of Jewish immigration, and the entirely alien appearance, language and culture of the newcomers led to calls from some non-Jewish quarters to limit the number of those permitted entry to the country, and the agitation of these ‘restrictionists’ for an ‘Aliens Act’ was a major source of political tension, and strained inter-communal relations throughout the first decade of the twentieth century.

Curiously, despite the heavy concentration of Jewish settlement in London, and the focus of restrictionist propagandists on that city, the only incidents of populist action in the British Isles directed against Jews during the peak immigration period (1880–1911) occurred outside England, in precisely those areas which had hitherto been free of Jews — Limerick, Ireland (1904), and South Wales (1911). Both have gone down in ‘history’ as unprovoked atrocities committed against small communities of blameless and defenceless Jews. This essay seeks to examine the first of these events, in an effort to better understand its true origins and the process by which it was transformed and then utilized to suit Jewish communal interests. The context of anti-Jewish action in Limerick, and the absence of any form of ‘irrational’ religious and racial anti-Semitism in fostering these incidents will also be examined, in an effort to challenge the received wisdom that Jews have historically played little or no role in provoking anti-Semitism.

We should begin with a careful and dispassionate analysis of the incidents which comprised what became known as the “Limerick Pogrom.’ On January 11 1904 Father John Creagh, a Redemptorist priest and Director of the Arch-Confraternity of Limerick, addressed his congregation on what he viewed as a new and pressing problem. The new Jewish merchants who had come to inhabit the city, argued Creagh, had by their business dealings shown themselves to be “leeches,” who were sucking the blood of the Irish by overcharging the poor. His attention to the matter, stated Creagh, had been drawn by a large number of his parishioners, and the problem had reached disastrous proportions. Shortly thereafter, a large crowd had gathered in the Jewish Quarter of the city, known popularly as ‘Little Jerusalem,’ before being quickly dispersed by the Royal Irish Constabulary. No damage or violence was reported.

During his sermon the following week, on January 18, Creagh reasserted his belief that the Jews of Limerick were proving to be a destructive and alien force in the life of the community. He told those present that “the Jews have proven themselves to be the enemies of every country in Europe, and every country has to defend themselves against them.” Following this second sermon, Creagh resolved to organize an economic boycott of Limerick’s Jews. The boycott would last four months, and would result in the departure from the city of the vast majority of its Jews, including its Rabbi. The only incidence of violence during these four months occurred on the morning of April 4th. Three Jews were walking down a side street when a fifteen-year-old youth named John Raleigh threw a small stone, hitting one of them, Elias Bere Levin, the city’s Rabbi. Levin pressed charges against the boy, resulting in Raleigh serving one month in Mountjoy Jail. One may consider these facts: a sermon, a non-violent demonstration, an economic boycott against traders considered to be immoral, and a small stone thrown by a youth, and query their significance. Yet these incidents were embellished then, and have continued to be embellished, to such an extent that the incident has become known as the ‘Limerick Pogrom.’ This essay will now consider how and why.

It is perhaps worth beginning by stressing the minimal role played by religious anti-Semitism in fostering any of the incidents under examination. Admittedly, the Limerick action was precipitated by the sermons of Father Creagh. However, while Creagh occasionally made allusions to the Blood Libel, religious motifs are absent from his arguments. In fact, economic and social grievances were consistently at the core of his addresses. In his first sermon on the issue Creagh stated that

The Jews came to Limerick apparently the most miserable tribe imaginable…but now they had enriched themselves, and could boast of considerable property in the city. Their rags have been exchanged for silk. They have wormed themselves into every form of business. They are in the furniture trade, the mineral water trade, the milk trade, the drapery trade… and traded even under Irish names.

When Michael Davitt, a leading Irish Nationalist and labor leader, publicly expressed his opposition to events in Limerick, Creagh responded with an economic defence of actions against Jews in the city. Creagh argued that if Davitt

were here to see the curse brought upon the poor by the Jewish trade, if he were to see the robbery that is going on by the weekly installment system of the Jews, and the exorbitant prices demanded for wretched goods, if he were here to see the misery and strife caused in the households by the dealings of the woman of the home with the Jews…he might think that they were as bad an evil to Ireland as English landlordism and over-taxation.

Prominent Irish economist Cormac Ó Gráda argues in his Princeton-published socio-economic history of Irish Jewry that the Limerick outbreak was “heavily economic in content,” and did not involve “the destruction of Jewish religious or communal property.” Other contemporary supporters of the boycott stressed that their actions were not driven by religious antipathy, and invoked a range of other motives for supporting measures against Limerick’s Jews. The Nationalist organ The United Irishman, placed Jewish immigration in the context of Irish emigration, asking: “Has Ireland gained or lost by the exchange?” Alarm at the level of difference between Irishman and Jew, devoid of specific prejudice is in evidence in the United Irishman’s assertion that, in the place of the “stalwart men and bright-eyed women of our race…we are getting strange people, alien to us in thought, alien to us in sympathy, from Russia, Poland, Germany and Austria — people who came to live amongst us, but who never became of us.”

By far the most prominent explanation employed by supporters of the boycott was the assertion that it was retaliation against harmful, usurious trading methods which were alleged to be widespread among the Jewish merchants of Limerick. In particular, Jewish traders were accused of preying on housewives, abandoned by husbands who had left to take part in the Boer War — a conflict in which Jewish interests played a prominent role. These women were offered the immediate necessities of life — quick cash, clothing for children etc., but at appalling rates of interest. The hardship of the community and the rapid rise of the town’s Jews, which was built on this hardship, was the central cause of friction. Citizens recalled feeling jealous as they looked on at increasingly ostentatious Jewish weddings (The Spectator, Oct. 11th 1997).

Tensions reached boiling point in late January 1904, when Father Creagh urged his parishioners to cease making payments to Jewish traders. Unable to make a living without these payments, and reluctant to take on other means of employment, the Jewish Chronicle reported that Limerick’s Jews were “waiting, terrified in their homes, almost starving.” Reference was made to the fact that these Jews had not long “escaped the Cossacks.” There was little reference to the Jewish financial abuse of the local Irish, that the Irish too were starving, or that they had often sat terrified in their homes, awaiting the court notice which would enforce the payment of crippling levels of interest.

The story quickly became a piece of fiction, with Jews in the victim role and the citizens of Limerick in the role of rampaging beasts. Unsubstantiated claims were made that the mob was “drunken”, and that “if they walked down the streets they were beaten.” Organised Jewry in Britain ensured that the boycott issue was raised in Parliament. The Board of Deputies of British Jews even put pressure on the lay leader of British Catholics, the Duke of Norfolk to intervene to prevent a “massacre.”

Irish journalists who could see with their own eyes the situation as it truly existed were quick to jump to Creagh’s defense. Dublin journalist and leading Irish Nationalist, Arthur Griffith was blunt in his assertions that the boycott was only directed against the trading methods of the Jews, that the reference to ritual murder was taken out of context and that Creagh’s object was noble. The financial motivation for the boycott and its non-violent nature was such that even the London Times lent its support to the movement by publishing a letter supporting the anti-Jewish drive on April 4th. A number of English people sent moral support to the activists through the correspondence columns of the Limerick Leader.

The Jewish campaign to be acknowledged as the “real” victims carried on unashamedly, irrespective of the fact that no synagogue was destroyed, that there was no destruction of Jewish religious or communal property, or that there were no fatalities.

The boycott quickly took its toll on the Jews. One by one they began to leave Limerick, heading mostly for England. Max Bland, a grocer, one of their leaders, and the rabbi Elias Levin put out feelers to re-establish harmonious relations but were impolitely rebuffed. The boycott continued until October, by which time only half a dozen Jewish families remained in Limerick.

The incident quickly became known as the “Limerick Pogrom,” and false accusations about the nature of the incident were perpetuated in subsequent years by Jewish journalists and historians, who repeated the unsubstantiated accounts of the Jewish Chronicle, smearing Limerick’s citizens with an unwarranted label, and ignoring the circumstances which led to the boycott. It therefore came to be remembered as an example of Jewish victimhood. Only with the recent scholarship of highly respected non-Jewish economic historians and journalists such as Cormac Ó Gráda  has some revision of the incident taken place, and some balance been restored to representations of the actions of the folk of Limerick. This process reached something of a climax when the Israeli ambassador to Ireland, Boaz Modai, admitted to an Irish audience in 2010 that “I think it is a bit over-portrayed, meaning that, usually if you look up the word pogrom it is used in relation to slaughter and being killed. This is what happened in many other places in Europe, but this is not what happened here. There was a kind of a boycott against Jewish merchandise for a while, but that’s not a pogrom.”

Bear this tale in mind the next time you are urged to feel sorry for Goldman Sachs, now “sapped of its confidence,” and the victim of anti-Semitic propaganda, and God help any young boys caught throwing stones at a Goldman Sachs office.

    I wonder if there is in America a bank that has no ties to Jewish Squid? Or is it so perfectly made that each time any transaction takes place Jews get a tiny crumb of it? Just musing,not knowing anything about economy,banking system or connectivity of such complex set-up.Enviable how simple and disciplined Irish boycott smoked them out!

    “even the London Times lent its support to the movement by publishing a letter supporting the anti-Jewish drive on April 4th.”

    I disagree. A newspaper does not endorse the views of a letter simply by publishing it. Most papers print a disclaimer that the views published are those of the author alone, but even without that there should be no assumption of endorsement. How else could newspapers letter columns be a forum of debate between conflicting viewspoints?

    It does if the letter in question is an open letter from the editorial team. This was common for political causes at the time. The Times also published such a letter in support of the British Brothers League, an early British anti-immigrant organization in 1902. You would be surprised at the way in which anti-immigrant sentiment prevailed in the mainstream media during this period. The press was still free to a great extent.

    I don’t fully grasp the scholarship of the piece as it is difficult to imagine that there was only one parish in Limerick whose parishoners implemented the boycott (thank you Ireland for giving the English language this word!) in order for it to have any impact. Surely there was more than one parish in Limerick at the begining of the century?

    What it does demonstrate is the power of Christianity when combined with ethnocentrism. I can’t imagine an atheist pulling this off in such such short time scales.

    I dislike Goldman Sachs for a host of reasons, but to the blame for bubbles in Nasdaq stocks, real estate, commodities and now treasuries is ignorant. They react to the underlying (crooked) incentives, and undoubtedly do so with complete disregard for any ethical standards, but ultimate blame must go to the fractional-reserve banking system, the Federal Reserve who presides over the banking oligopolists, FDIC, GSE’s and the politicians and their laws who have elected to destroy the currency and the country to save banks’ stockholders (and here Goldman Sachs is probably culpable of playing bailout politics, which I believe tantamount to theft from the public purse).

    As for usury, this is one subject where I believe Church doctrine was disastrous to the West. Of course lending at interest is justified. Compensation for foregoing access to one’s money, as well as default risk, and the loss of purchasing power of the money itself must attract a premium in a purely commercial transaction. By barring its flock from money-lending, the Church gave the entire business to Jews, and the rest is history.

    I don’t blame Jews for charging high interest rates per se, that’s a private deal between borrower and lender. If I borrow from Joey Three-Chins the local Mafia hood and the interest rate is known to me at the outset, well that’s my Faustian pact. No one has forced me into this deal. Probably the only reason I’m at Joey’s book is that the banks have got a government licence and won’t take a chance on me, because there are better risks out there for them. I don’t blame Joey, as I know he’s going to break my legs in advance of my default. Mutuo caveo.

    Limerick was the heart of the Redemptorist Order in Ireland. I assure you its influence in the city was significant, and even non-parishioners and those who did not owe money to the Jews could see the damage done, and lend their support. The purpose of the piece is to demonstrate the creation of Jewish victimhood, and that is where its focus lies.

    Jewish power (always destructive to the world) is based on three things : 1) trade and finance, 2) political machinations behind the scenes, 3) mind-control of the masses by control of the mass-media and education. The prime source of their power however is money and this power, no matter how formidable, can be broken by the simple method of boycott. This is the lesson we can draw from this story of the “Limerick Pogrom”. The people of Limerick boycotted the Jews and the Jews had to leave. Boycot is simple, low risk, strictly legal and effective. Boycot Jewish businesses and banks and you starve the Beast.

    As for media control, with the coming of the internet this source of Jewish power is rapidly diminishing. Destructive ideas in education can be combated by either creating educational institutions of our own (homeschooling, courses on the internet) or by offering additional courses in which the toxic ideas of the main stream are neutralized.
    Remains political power. Since this power needs money and media-control as its support , that will eventually wither also.

    What could be done is publishing on the internet the names of Jewish businesses to be boycotted. For WN lists of white businesses could be published. Such businesses still have to be started. The idea has already been suggested on this forum. Also, ways will have to be found to circumvent Jewish banking. I leave it to the economically gifted to come forward with creative ideas.

    All power in this world is ultimately based on money, so means have to be found to simultaneously withhold it from our enemies while increasing it for ourselves. It can be done.

    Curious is the DAILY MAIL as such. Because whenever I read a piece like the Auschwitz Sunday Football team or the maid who tells us that Hitler was a rather decent chap, and even though at the end the usual condemnations are rolled out, I wonder what a fairly objective person must think. Namely that something doesn’t wash here at all. The Goldmn Sucks piece fits nicely into this scheme. Thus thumbs up for the DAILY MAIL.

    There is an under curent of dissent emerging in the British press at the moment. The journalist Peter Hitchen (works at the Dail Mail and brother of the late and ridiculous Christopher) plus the Daily Telegraph are leading the way. The latter is owned by Scottish Catholics.

    What is holding them back is 1) a fear of the enemy 2) a distracting and puerile euroscepticism – as if the Greeks are the real problem here …

    @Franklin Ryckaert:
    The Federal Reserve coincidentally is the biggest employer of monetary economists. This partly explains why “experts” rarely question its necessity, or the thousands of pages of legislation pertaining to banking get added to each passing year. If there were none of this, everyone could get into banking, and the business would resemble the restaurant trade or some other non-politicized sector. Plenty of failures, sure, like any normal commerce, but no way for a comprehensive Jewish takeover.

    But you’re quite right, the majority of economists will have to catch a ride out of town in the same caboose as the bankers, if the yoke is to be cast off. People must first understand the predicament, and internet is the key.

    My pick on this is that Brummer and Smith works are complementary. What is going on is simply the preparation of a woman taking the head of Goldman Sachs. I don’t know if it is going to be Abbey Cohen or another, but that is it. When you do this, you must prepare the culture of change so to set a favorable landscape for the newcomer. It is funny because while we view Goldman Sachs as the core of the culture of corruption, Vance.com puts Goldman Sachs as the financial institution with the biggest Gay|Lesbian|Transgendered positive bias. They favor and encourage positive discrimination in this sense. Now, I have been arguing for a time that the increasing level of corruption in all our institutions is strongly correlated with women experiencing strong vertical mobility in the workplace; and I maintain that this correlation is not spurious. This access by women never comes alone; it always carries with it a Feminisation of the general culture of an institution; which means also a strong bias for Gay|lesbian|transgendered culture and the change to a Matriarchal workplace culture. The Frankfurt School founders would be proud.
    So, for a woman to come and be the “agent of change and purity”, you strategically need 2 things to go on at the same time: you need to criticize the current culture, yet you need to put a basket behind to catch everything that falls. In the current situation Smith applies the first flap of this strategy, Brummer the second one. It is in the same vein as when Obama was very critical of the culture of Wall Street, but when came time to take care of the culprits, he said: “Let’s not look behind us, I want to look forward”…Indeed Mr. Corruption in Chief, he then turned around and made them more powerful than they were before. And therefore, there is only one certainty, don’t expect Goldman to have a more honest corporate culture under this new leadership.

    @monte: ” Thus thumbs up for the DAILY MAIL. ” No ! You need to read the Daily Mail to realise that it is cheap propaganda for Jewish interests. It was threatened with an advertising boycott by Jo Lyons in 1934 when its owner became a little to fond of Oswald Mosley. Since then it has slavishly followed its masters. Nearly daily you have an Auschwitz /Holocaust story and in the last 10 years it has published over 4000 articles on the Holocaust. In that time it has published 2 articles on the Holdomor. It also likes to publish stories along the lines of Hitler ate babys for dinner.
    The Daily Mail knows who is boss and where it gets its money from and it isnt white ethnic interests.

    This is why we have the Johnson Amendment of 1954 where white churches cannot be political or lose their tax status.

    This law is only enforced against white churches and has been very effective in stopping the churches from making any comments that could be regarded as political.

    This has allowed white churches to be politicized from the top down. The inner church concils influences the ministers and the ministers influences the congregation.

    GS, in line with the rest of the financial sector, would be a much smaller entity if the amount of money itself weren’t growing at such a rate of knots, courtesy of the Fed’s various manoeuvres. Without a central bank, fractional reserve banking would see periodic bank runs wipe out banks. Shareholders and depositors would get residuals after the bankruptcy proceedings. Bad bank managers used to get tarred, feathered and run out of town, no bad thing.

    The Fed and the commercial banks work together (and have a nice two-way traffic of employees as you point out) against the interests of the broader community. A pox on their houses!

    On a consumer level, jews have a lock on the payday loan racket, check cashing joints, and the rent to own scam.

    Some really greasy Jews like Gilbert & minyan are upgrading from the consumer rackets to the casino business. Just another form of parasitic activity.

    But, you miss the point on Goldman Sachs, and other big investment bankers, they control things on a macro level, big businesses, not on the consumer level of Jew activity.

    “He [Fr. Creagh] told those present that ‘the Jews have proven themselves to be the enemies of every country in Europe, and every country has to defend themselves against them.’ “

    Was Creagh being less than Christian when he said this? I don’t believe so.

    -Remember the underlying reason that Christ came to earth (according to church theology): Judaism wasn’t working.

    -Creagh was advocating for the poor. Ireland, as I understand it, was the poorest country in western Europe. This was only a couple of generations after the Potato Famine.

    -Creagh did something most Christian preachers in the West have refused to do for a long time – advocate on behalf of their own congregation. Instead, they advocate on behalf of everyone else, then chastise their own people for not doing the same.

    hmmm well I don’t know what to say any more. As Denys Picard points out about a ‘culture of change’ going on, that is certainly true enough. Probably the Occupy movement and Anonymous won’t overcome Goldman Sachs either or manage to change one thing on Wall Street.

    That’s the way it is, I guess, folks. After reading a piece from The Last Ditch website, I think their philosophy is best: just observe it, give a nod to efforts that try to change things back, but don’t expend too much energy on hope, as it’s lost.

    So, for me, reading TOO articles is just an exercise in futility. But they are interesting articles how deep the Jewish M.O. goes. I have to keep wondering: Just who are these Jews anyway? They’ve always been an enigma down through the ages.

    Ah well, what’s to worry? Happy St. Patrick’s Day all!

    Christ was sent, according to scripture/doctrine/theology, “….only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” Later on, the scope of his ministry changed, but “fixing” judaism was the original mission (if you take that statement at face value.)

    Even GOD couldn’t fix judaism. Sobering thought.

    From site ‘ SBPDL’:

    Following is an example of why succession is the way:

    http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/breaking/bs-md-towson-protest-20120309,0,4905021.story

    At Towson State University right outside of Baltimore, the conservative activist group
    Students for Western Civilization caused an uproar by wanting to have a White Pride Day.

    Quoted from the Baltimore Sun:

    The national group’s politics have alarmed civil rights organizations like the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Anti-Defamation League, which have been monitoring the group for several years.
    While not explicitly racist, the group’s language demonizes minorities, gays and lesbians and non-Christian religious groups, said Marilyn Mayo, who studies extremist groups for the Anti-Defamation League.

    “What they’re talking about is preserving white culture when we live in a diverse, multicultural society,” she said.

    There you have it. Someone is talking about preserving white culture. We can’t have that, says our watchdog from the ADL!

    BTW Students for Western Civilization website is down for the second time in 2 months.

    This reinforces the succession concept. Let’s look at the world. Japan is run for the benefit of the Japanese. China for the Chinese. Saudi Arabia for the Saudis. Each group is for themselves. All over the world. Yet we are handcuffed and muzzled and prevented from thinking of our own future. It’s a thought crime to do so. In the US the founding stock is told to step aside. There are 57 muslim nations……………….

    @Jim:

    Even GOD couldn’t fix judaism. Sobering thought.

    LOL Yes, Jim. When their tribal god himself called them a ‘stiff-necked people’, I guess he knows what he’s talking about.

    And when the Ascended Master manifested to see what he could do, he overturned their money-changing tables in the temple and called them the children of the devil, or something similar to that. From the looks of things, looks like the Ascended Master was right about them.

    The Limerick pogrom proves that we can take on Jews in their arena of financial and spiritual war and push back! I wrote a post based on this post here, and put a couple of excerpts below. This is very important because I have never ever seen a case in history where non-Jews waged financial war against Jews and WON. And the people of Limerick won, make no mistake about it. This is a model that could be expanded to the world.

    The “Limerick Pogrom,” a story of successful economic war against YKW
    Posted on March 17, 2012
    The Limerick Pogrom reveals a piece of history of anti-YKW resistance of the sort that I have never seen or heard of; successful economic resistance (boycotts) against YKW.

    ———-

    So there was a functioning spiritual community, and the leader of that community told the people to stop paying, and they did, and broke the back of YKW. And of course YKW called it “persecution” when the Irish start playing the financial game right back. They did not use violence (except one 15 year old who hit a rabbi with a rock but not injuring him, and he did 1 month in jail). They played YKW’s own game, and the next thing you know, YKW is on the backfoot and calls it persecution, and if the boycott is maintained, they would have to leave and seek another host population.

    “. . . if he were to see the robbery that is going on by the weekly installment system of the Jews . . . .”

    The same phenomenon historically was a source of animosity by Blacks against Jewish merchants in America’s inner cities (chalked up by Jews as Black anti-Semitism of course). Jews would sell furniture, for example, on installment to Blacks. If Blacks failed to make a payment on time, the Jews would repossess the furniture and keep all the earlier payments.

    So first we get the ‘Federal Reserve’, then B’nai B’rith, then income tax gets codified into law, then stock market gets crashed, then owning monetary gold becomes illegal, then banksters are handed a collateral sold to the public as ‘Social Security’, then finally dollar ceases being pegged to gold.

    Persian Jews have just about taken over Beverly Hills and Jewish ostentation has reached new levels. The joke in Los Angeles is that they landed in BH in 1979 and are marching west to the sea devouring everything in their path.

    My sister calls Beverly Hills Sopranoville. The Persian Jews make their living in the same mafia criminal ways as the Sopranos and live in Soprano type mansions. The Persian Jews of BH however, live in a far gaudier style than the Sopranos.

    Typical Persian bar bat mitzvah and weddings are in the $400, 000 $500,00 raange. Here is the way the Persian pay for them. They madly apply for new credit cards and use up all the limits on both the new and existing credit cards. Get 25 credit cards with a $15,000 limit and you can have a $400,000 wedding on the credit cards.

    A week after the weddiing, file for bankruptcy. Net result, a $400,000 wedding at no cost to the families. They are unbelievable crooks.

    Here is a typical Persian Jew small business, a print shop. Rent a little store and buy say 10 of those $300,000 copier machines with the minimum down payment.

    As soon as the machines are delivered put them up for sale craig’s list trade magazine ads whatever for say $150,000.
    Sell the ten machines for $100,000 to $150,000 apiece and in a few months the Persian Jews walk away with one million to one million five hundred thousand cash.

    The first thing a Persian Jew does when he comes to this country a poor poor pitiful refugee is to set up corporations in several states. He sets up new corporations every month and keeps transferring all his crooked little business around.

    Here is a favorite Persian Jew trick. Horang calls a company requesting some good or service. Salesperson comes, makes
    the sale, minimal down payment is made and goods and services are delivered.

    All payment stops. Company takes Horang to court. Surprise surprise who shows up in court? Not Horang, the person who bought the goods, but Farzhad.

    I don’t know anything about it says Farzhad. Who is this Horang? It is my business I admit, but that morning I remember I had to take my kid to the Doctor. This Horang must have broken in and taken delivery of the goods.

    A White American contractor I know got sued by a disgruntled customer he had never heard of. Turned out that a Persian Jew masquereaded as the contractor, took as much money as he could get, tore up the house a bit and disappeared.

    This is a typical Persian Jew trick. They look in the yellow pages or internet for lists of contractors. They copy the name and state license number. Then they go to Kinko’s and make up their own stationary, invoices, flyers, cards etc and go into business for a few months.

    They get a few jobs, get as much money as they can tear up the house a bit and disappear.

    It just goes on and on and on the crimes committed by these Persian Jews who turn themselves from penniless refugees to millionaries within 5 years of arrival.

    Like the Asian model minority, the Persian community is full of seniors who get SSI, disability, medicare and medicaid and every possible senior and disability benefit possible.

    The disability fraud is of course implemented by Persian Drs who diagnose perfectly able Persians as disabled. There are also a lot of Persians in their 50′s who use fake Birth certificates to claim they are 65 and entitled to social security and medicare.

    On and on it goes.

    Jewish mony lenders in 1800′s London were charging 400 percent interest rates. That is the reason the poet Shelley’s father disinherited him and arranged for the baronetcy and more importantly the estate to pass to Shelley’s son.

    The poet Shelley was one of the hundreds of thousand of English people who paid 400 percent interest rates to the Jews of London. Had his Father not disinherited him the Jews would have gotten the entire estate worth about 10 million in today’s money upon the Father’s death.

    If you read English historical novels you are sure to come across various characters in debtor’s prison. What is never mentioned is that the money lenders who put people in debtor’s prison were Jews with their 400 percent interest rates.

    Emma, Lady Hamilton was another famous person who died in poverty and debt because she borrowed from Jews at 400 percent interest rates.

    The Irish of Limirick had the same grievances against the Jews as did the early 20th century Harlem blacks, southern blacks, the European peasantry and every middle class person whose town was invaded by Jewish shopkeeper with their consumer fraud, shoddy goods and high interest rates.

    The student loan program has turned into near life long debt for a worthless piece of paper. Lyndon Johnson was controlled by Jews, both marxists and cannibal capitalists.
    The student loan program has turned into a monstrous burden incurred for a piece of paper with little value.

    At least if you buy a car, TV whatever, you get some use out of the thing you pay for.

    The occupy movement was the epitome of the Jewish 2 pronged attack. Young Jews protesting what their baby boomer parents benefited from and what their marxist grandparents foisted on Lyndon Johnson.

    A somewhat parallel case is the propaganda against Cromwell. Read the recent book Cromwell: An Honorable Enemy by Tom Reilly. The claims of atrocities were made up by one man. I suspect the IRA was or became a Jewish front (this idea was dismissed by Hilaire Belloc – but he did mention it). This not only sounds the same modus operandi, but helps explain – among other things – the coincidence of the ‘Easter Rising’ with the Balfour Declaration talks, oddities about de Valera, the failure to prosecute IRA thugs effectively, and their support for race based immigation into Ireland.

    Interesting essay. It probably could have done as a stand alone, without the Goldman Sachs entree. The notion of antisemitism in Ireland is a provocative hook by itself.

    I think it could be very interesting to have some information on the composition of ethnic control of British newspapers from 1850-1950. I realize control can be exercised both through direct ownership and through advertising. Advertising control might be difficult to identify so perhaps ownership would be a start at least.

    @Tom: Without the regulatory framework, which creates the essential oligopoly, Jewish domination of banking is much less likely. And likewise, if banking were open to everyone, then there’s less chance of all high-risk lenders being Jewish. The schemers behind the Federal Reserve (see The Creature from Jekyll Island, http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/5318883) were almost exclusively European Jewish bankers, and that institution marked the defeat of the old America.

    @Free Thinker:

    Without the power of the Jewish money establishment, enabled by the Federal Reserve, the grocery vendor (whom I infer to be Jewish) wouldn’t get preferential treatment in accessing credit. The playing field would be more level.
    As to the Jewish hold over minds and hearts through Hollywood and academe – with regard to the former, I am opposed to any of form of intellectual property regime, key to their vice-like grip on the public discourse. As for the latter, colleges and professions are just like the medieval guilds. Without a piece of paper, you are precluded from practicising a given profession. Only with the licencing and state enforcement of these guilds is any sort of monopoly possible. Attorneys used to be inducted into the profession by working, self-tuition was possible (think Lincoln, for example). The field was too competitive for high salaries, and hence the lobbyists’ urge to formalize training and qualifications, so to reduce the numbers of new entrants. Reduce supply in the face of steady or rising demand, and the price of legal or other professional advice has nowhere to go but up.

    Whilst it’s cathartic to finger the Jews, and justified, it doesn’t provide any insight into how their nepotism achieved almost total dominance, and so how to take back that dominance. They worked the system, and the system must go.

    @mark: that is why for example, insurance companies used to refuse to insure jewish businesses- this is now called ‘anti-semitic’ but think about it.. why would a company NOT want to do business? only because they had been burned enough times.

    Right now, what is manifesting itself is a story repeated hundreds of times over the last millenium – Jewish bankers/financiers engage in exploitive, corrupt behavior, tear at the fabric of society, violate civic trust, and become cruel and ruthless overlords.. the people rise up or a populist leader comes along and expels them.

    Corruption at the top has always been beneficial to these banking houses.. reform and honesty are their enemies.

    But things are a little different this time. There is Israel. there are nukes, and they flooding the west with non-euorpeans in hope of squeching any nationalist resistance, and of creating a fractured, chaotic, despotic society – which, to them, is like a sh*t pool to a pig..

    I also feel sorry for the many honest jews and middle class ones- they are often used by this elite (look at banker/founders of israel who ran off with the savings of middle class german jews) and scared into defending their criminal behavior.

    @Alice Teller: there are many history books available on google books and gutenberg that were written before political correctness. even as late as the 1960s a British historian wrote that Edward I’s expulsion of the jews was a justified last resort- he had tried to get them to reform , tried to get them to engage in honest professions and they would have none of it.

    There is also a history of the Spanish Reconquest written in the 30s, that pretty much justifies expulsion. Even some modern books (Easu’s *(sp) tears, and a couple of others that actually mention the actual reasons behind many expulsions, buried of course, in ‘how horribly anti-semtic’ caveats.

    Its sound like the same modus operandi of Russian Jews at the bringing of the 20th century except there wouldn’t have been as many opportunities to exploit . They used the screen of Marxism as a part of their attack , which is no longer available to them but the old anti-semite canard is pulled out at every opportunity we know .
    A lot of people don’t know the the Australian/Polish/Israeli Frank Lowey (Groceries multi-billionaire ) was half owner of the Twin Towers 6 months before they pulled it . Then miraculously a couple of years later Frank discovers (or the Simon Weissman Center–nug nug wink wink ) a wittiness who saw his pious bible carrying father mugged by Nazis at a train station . Needless to say this became a very big film production with the MSM going bonkers on the story . He even dug out a railway carriage and had it gold plated and donated to Ausherwitz hoax (and the lowly Jews starting fighting over the plaque ! inevitably ) . Do you think anyone is allowed to cross question this witness ? Ofcouse not , thats anti-Semitic . The dumb old goyem could’t imagine anyone telling such a story over a dead mans father (missing body–maybe he died of pneumonia ? Who know ? ) .
    But the lowly Goyem forget the Mossad Jewish motto : By deception we shall wage war . And wage war against us they do , on every possible social level . And Just as in war camouflage is required .
    Jews could never run an autarkic state . Without slaves to look down on and do the work , who would cooperate ? This is the real reason they are forcing multiculturalism on the West because even if they had the whole world as a Jewish State (or the all of the ME) , they wouldn’t be satisfied , ordered or contented .

    @Trenchant: But that is an interesting point as another way of extracting money from a country is to create a monopoly by certification . In feudal Russian Europe they used the King and his court to do this .
    The unpleasant reality is that Rothschild and co have taken over the world. The battle of WW2 was really a battle between International Jewry and the last chance of a free people of Europe . All thats left is the anti-Semitic card these gangsters play as they laugh in our muppet face .
    As I have suggested before part of the solution is to close ranks Europeans /American / Australian/ etc . The International European v’s the International Jew . Who’s market is bigger ? Remember that Russia is not our enemy but our compatriots , Europeans in a large part also . The enemy also seeks to divide and then get the two sides at each others throats .

    Australia doesn’t have in any way the same problems as Americans in a large part because our voting system is compulsory so the Jews haven’t been able to brainwash the 30% of intellectuals that do vote in Britain or America .Partly because we are cynical and harder edged , blunter , the bs doesn’t fly as easily.
    Still now that Australia is stating to look like an important world country of wealth and land (imagine cheap nuclear energy and desalination) and it has been fairly well governed due to the later points (and luck) , Jews will be pilling in (facilitated by international Jewry) , and with this comes all the troubles of the USA etc . As I mentioned a couple of times the ADL has set up here which bodes very very ill for the happiness of our state . For with the ADL comes the free hand of organised crime protected from investigation by the anti-semite/minority/racist canard . Pox on them .

    And you are right legalism is a problem all over the West . I does intact seem conspiratorially arranged . Safety is used to restrict freedom of behaviour , one needs a government licence to do just about anything . This is an effective way to tied people down and socialise them into passivity. So much so the goyem don’t ever have the spiritual vigour to disagree with the laws : “Oh well ” they say thats the rules !

    Europeans have the same right “the right to Life” and to protect it by all the laws to ensure their life, just as the Jews have. No mention in the attached article about the Palestiniens disposession of land thru war, or cause for them to retaliate. It seems as tough only the Jews have the right to life, or to law. Others are disregarded from their perspective. (none-existent) (what a Rabbi, (the ultimate good?) and his talk of evil.

    Yes…prior to this current occasion of, “They’ve done it again,” there were outcries that got them evicted about 80 times. But this time is different, because of their “never again” strategies now in place. They own and run the entire financial system, they own and run the entire communications system, they own nearly every political leader, and they run our military machine as well. How do we even begin to make them adjust their behavior? Any public criticism and they label you an antisemite and ruin your life. They don’t play by our rules; they use deceit and treachery. They clothe what’s good for the Jews in universal rhetoric, while instilling guilt in the white Christians, to the point where we are now in suicide mode. When I read “The Culture Of Critique” I just couldn’t get over the disgusting duplicity and outright malevolence aimed toward us, for no reason that I can fathom, just their fear that we MIGHT one day throw them out. Of course, their horrendous behavior sets in motion the very antisemitism they hope to avoid, but this time they’ve covered their bases and have nearly total control over damn near everything. That’s why I fear that it will come to violence, because the political system was hijacked long ago. We can expect fierce attacks on the Constitution and free speech, as the Jewish police state draws closer and closer.

    @Trenchant: You’ve got exactly the right idea(s). I also dislike Goldman Sachs for a host of reasons, but agree with you concerning their essential blamelessness in CAUSING the financial meltdown. Likewise concerning the usury strictures.

    From the post, it APPEARS Father Creagh was advocating the dishonoring of debt for, among other things, cash and goods advanced to the debtors. This is an incitement to theft and to crime under the law at the time. To call this a boycott (in which participants conspire to refrain from purchasing IN THE FIRST PLACE) is a serious untruth and distortion of what it is.

    If Goldman Sachs’s activities are made illegal, we shall once again shoot ourselves in the foot or someplace more vital. If, on the other hand, we repeal the government laws and regulations that provide the execrable rewards for such activities, we shall cure the problem without societal damage.

    @Trenchant: Right again (re: employer of the majority of monetary economists)! The government has captured the academy.

    Now, as to who has captured the government and even the gullible electorates that over time determine the incumbencies, well, that is adequately covered (everywhere) elsewhere on this site.

    But the “weapon,” so to call it is NOT just different incumbencies nor different laws and regulations. It is FEWER and weaker laws and regulations. Government is the tool of oppression. If Jews have dominated the ranks of the oppressors, that is just because they are better opportunists. Rest assured that in their absence, others would/will quite readily take up the same tool and wield it with at least as much brutality and self-interest. The damage is done by the TOOL, not the particular people who have appropriated in to their use.

    No, you’re wrong. Totally wrong, and KM has covered this. The WASP elites held to the same value system as the rest of us. I have to laugh at the people here who defend GS. You must not know anything about their practices. They would pump and sell financial instruments to PENSION FUNDS, while shorting that very same toxic paper, knowing full well it was JUNK. They demanded billions in bailout money, funneled through AIG, and then gave themselves huge bonuses while the rest of the country suffered job losses and foreclosures. Read Matt Taibbi online, or better yet get a copy of “Griftopia.” The reason why so many point the finger at GS is because they are thought to be one of the owners of the Fed itself, and in any case they have a revolving door relationship with government and have managed to wield insane power over lawmakers, basically gutting all of the post Depression regulations that protected us for so many years. It’s fair to say that GS is the vanguard of everything rotten on Wall St., since nearly all of the major players either work for GS currently or have worked there in the past. Most people don’t even realize that while the meltdown caused us harm (from which we might never fully recover) it caused starvation and calamity in other parts of the world. There is no excuse for the sleazy behavior on Wall St., and they have yet to be held accountable. Sadly, they put Obama into office, so he refused to rein them in, even though he had a huge mandate to do so. The repayment of course is the huge money he has in pocket now for his reelection bid. Romney is no better, since his biggest contributors are also from Wall St.

    Few people have any idea of the magnitude of thievery and financial terrorism that Wall St. perpetrated on this poor country. Some estimate that the FED printed 8 or 10, 12, maybe 14 TRILLION dollars to bail those scumbags out from their bad bets. Nobody really knows all of the details. Hell, the FED had to bailout entire countries to keep the party going! All because of some jerks on Wall St. making bad bets. They could have paid off every mortgage in the USA with one trillion.
    There should have been no bailouts whatsoever. The banks should have been quickly nationalized and the losses eaten by those who took the risks, not the taxpayers.

    I don’t see any defence of GS in my post. It’s the financial architecture that allows them so much power that must be attacked. The swamp drained rather than chasing the rogue alligator (look at all the other red eyes at the water-line before giving chase).

    Re. J Rucker. You chide Trenchant and the Irish priest by using a false definition of boycott. You restrict it to non purchase. This is silly. The term comes from organized non-payment of legally enforceable rents to landowners whose agent was a man named Boycott. It has always been directed towards unconscionable business practices and onerous enforcement of laws that are often unjust. The aim is to attain justice when the law perverts it.

    Like most trolls you try to manipulate the language to ameliorate tribal bad practices. Perhaps you are not malicious and just brain dead ignorant. In either case we are on to you. Find another bridge to live under.

    @Jared White:
    I have often felt as you do. We must not allow them to psych us out completely. All you say is true. but, they are a very small minority. The ownership of so much is based on monopoly money,(Trenchant can explain it far better than I), even if they don’t say so, everyone dislikes them. Jews know all this.

    I used to think that it was a symptom of Jewish paranoia that they live in constant fear of pogroms. Now I see it is a realistic appraisal and prediction of the effect their behavior has on others. They are very sensitive push back, and they do respond.

    We must fight back, everywhere, every way we can. Do not become paralyzed by the awareness that your actions will not solve the entire problem. No matter what, they never gave up. Should we?

    If you do not want to feed the jews, invest in your own business, live frugally and save, and if you must invest outside your own business for some reason, buy common stocks directly from non jew businesses, not mutual funds or through high priced brokers.

    No, nationalization does not mean that taxpayers take it on the chin. Look at Iceland…people took to the streets and demanded reform. So the government seized the banks, protected depositors, and told everybody else to go to hell. The result is that their economy has now turned around, while we are still down a very deep and dark hole. Our crony capitalists followed Japan’s bailout method, and we can expect the same sad results. Despite the media love for Obama and claims of an economic turnaround, we are looking at sustained high unemployment and little to no growth.
    I’m sorry to be so negative regarding their control, but I don’t see how to make any changes. The populace is dumbed down and doesn’t understand that the elites have done an equity extraction on this country, and I suspect that the capital has flown to asia.
    At the time of the bailouts, people should have flooded the streets, pitchforks in hand. Obama did nothing. Oh, a bit of useless talk, but it didn’t amount to much. Theater. He wasn’t about to anger his major donors.
    We should have been smart enough to keep the Hebrews honest. The dismantling of Glass-Steagall and other regulations should never have been permitted. Wall St. is like the wild west, still trading in derivatives and crazy financial instruments, and there is no assurance that another meltdown can be avoided. The deficit continues to swell, and a tsunami of entitlements is heading our way, but the leadership is petrified.
    The financiers are like teenagers, and should have boundaries imposed on them, but everybody is too afraid of them to do anything.
    That’s why I fear that it will eventually come to violence. I’m not advocating violence, but I don’t see how the situation will change otherwise.

    The story quickly became a piece of fiction, with Jews in the victim role and the citizens of Limerick in the role of rampaging beasts. Unsubstantiated claims were made that the mob was “drunken”, and that “if they walked down the streets they were beaten.” Organised Jewry in Britain ensured that the boycott issue was raised in Parliament. The Board of Deputies of British Jews even put pressure on the lay leader of British Catholics, the Duke of Norfolk to intervene to prevent a “massacre.”

    On every occasion that the Jews play their “victim card,” whatever danger they allege to exist should immediately come into being. When the Jews asserted they were in danger from mobs, then those mobs should have sprang into being at once! If the Jews claim to be terrified that the will be massacred, then immediately it should be so, before any possible protective intervention could be forthcoming. Sooner or later, the Jews would come to realize that it does not profit them to lie about the degree to which they are endangered, because the gentiles around them are determined that every one of their lies should become truth, no matter how atrocious the doing might be.

    Very helpful article to me. I needed a real life detailed explanation of exactly why the Jews get kicked out of just about everywhere they try to settle. Much more needs to be written on specific places and examples.

    Just want to mention “libertarianism” is basically “Austrian” school of economics. The founders are like 99 percent or maybe 100 percent people of the” Jewish revolutionary spirit.” [ everyone should read E. Michael Jones' book by that title as well as his upcoming book on capitalism.] Carl Menger,
    Eugen von Böhm-Bawerk, and
    Friedrich Freiherr von Wieser.
    Later Austrian School devotees include…
    Ludwig von Mises,
    Friedrich Hayek,
    Joseph Schumpeter.
    Murray Rothbard,
    Israel Krizner,
    Ludwig Lachmann,

    This
    1. “He [Fr. Creagh] told those present that ‘the Jews have proven themselves to be the enemies of every country in Europe, and every country has to defend themselves against them.’ “

    reminds me very much of

    I Thessalonians 2:15
    New Living Translation (©2007)
    For some of the Jews killed the prophets, and some even killed the Lord Jesus. Now they have persecuted us, too. They fail to please God and work against all humanity
    The plan for the salvation of mankind started in the Garden of Eden, and was not a plan to fix something because Judaism did not work. Genesis 3:15

    15And I will put enmity

    between you and the woman,

    and between your offspring and hers;

    he will crush your head,

    and you will strike his heel.”
    The woman is the Blessed Mother and the Church militant will be the Church triumphant in God’s plan of salvation.

    The DailyMail is not good in my book because they post articles about 9-11 that are based on the “official story” that Muslim hijackers did the “attacks.” Hogwash.

    I did not understand the bit about “Persian Jews” but the information was very interesting.

    Here is a quote from Alexander Solzheitsyn that I love.

    http://www.scribd.com/doc/27424145/The-Gulag-Archipelago

    Page 13 of 482

    Volume I Gulag Archipelago

    “During an arrest, you think since you aren’t guilty, how can they arrest you? Why should you run away? And how can you resist right then? After all, you’ll only make your situation worse; you’ll make it more difficult for them to sort out the mistake. And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say goodbye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! We didn’t love freedom enough. Every man always has handy a dozen glib little reasons why he is right not to sacrifice himself.”
