Three Jews, One Omission: Surveying Some Self-Pitying Semitic Solipsism

“Two Jews, three opinions.” That’s an old Jewish saying meant to capture the contrarianism of Jews. “We can never agree!” Jews chuckle. “We’re always arguing, already!” Yes, it’s an old saying, but it’s also a dishonest one. It deliberately implies that Jews are divided on everything from trivialities to fundamentals. They aren’t. When they disagree, it’s about tactics, not about targets. Jews do disagree, yes, but they disagree about how best to achieve something they agree is of supreme importance: What’s best for Jews.

Jews are overwhelmingly united on the importance of that. They’re also united in believing that what’s best for Jews entails what’s worst for Whites. And vice versa. That’s why on some topics there has been remarkable unanimity of opinion among Jews. Is Third-World immigration into the West a good thing? Yes, of course it is. Jews and Third-World folk are natural allies. In particular, Jews and Muslims are natural allies. Jews have been uttering those exact words or variants on them for a long time:

• British Jews and Muslims are natural allies, Dr Richard Stone, The Independent, 15th August 2001
• Jews and Muslims are natural allies against religious discrimination, Daisy Khan and Rabbi Burton Visotzky, The Hill, 24th August 2017
• Jews and Muslims ramp up alliances in wake of Trump’s election, The Jewish Standard, 15th November 2016
• Muslims and Jews face a common threat from white supremacists. We must fight it together, Jonathan Freedland and Mehdi Hasan, The Guardian, 3rd April 2019
• Both Feeling Threatened, American Muslims and Jews Join Hands, Laurie Goodstein, The New York Times, 5th December 2015
• Jewish women ‘stand shoulder to shoulder’ with Muslim women over Islamophobic abuse, The Jewish Chronicle, 19th April 2018
• Jewish and Muslim women pledge to work together to combat hate, The Jewish Chronicle, 24th April 2018
• Jews and Muslims should unite in fight against racism, The Jewish Chronicle, 28th March 2018
• Board [of Jewish Deputies] president Marie van der Zyl pledges to be ‘committed ally’ of Muslims at interfaith Iftar, The Jewish Chronicle, 13th July 2018
• Our Jewish community must do more to support Muslims attacked by Islamophobes, The Jewish Chronicle, 8th August 2018
• This young Jewish woman and a young Muslim woman teach schoolkids about racism, The Jewish Chronicle, 7th February 2019

But against whom and what are Jews and Muslims “natural allies”? That part remains unspoken, but the answer is obvious. Jews and Muslims are natural allies against the cruel bigotry and oppression of the White, historically Christian majority. Or so Jews have long thought. Since October 7, 2023, many Jews have had a re-think about that. After the horrifically cruel slaughter, rape and kidnapping inflicted by hateful Hamas on innocent Israelis, Jews in the West expected that their vibrant allies would flood the streets in solidarity. And Jews were half-right. Third-World folk did flood the streets of London, New York and Paris in solidarity, but it was in solidarity with hateful Hamas, not with innocent Israelis.

T.B.G., not W.B.F.J.

Oy veh! Who could have seen that one coming? Well, one highly unusual Jew called Larry Auster did. He was highly unusual because he thought that T.B.G. — Truth, Beauty and Goodness — was more important than W.B.F.J. — “What’s Best For Jews.” This is what Auster wrote more than twenty years ago:

Just the other week I was telling a secular, leftist Jew of my acquaintance, a man in his late sixties, about my idea that the only way to make ourselves safe from the specter of domestic Moslem terrorism is to deport all jihad-supporting Moslems from this country. He replied with emotion that if America deported Moslem fundamentalists, it would immediately start doing the same thing to Jews as well. “It’s frightening, it’s scary,” he said heatedly, as if the Jews were already on the verge of being rounded up. In the eyes of this normally phlegmatic and easy-going man, America is just a shout away from the mass persecution, detention, and even physical expulsion of Jews. Given the wildly overwrought suspicions that some Jews harbor about the American Christian majority who are in fact the Jews’ best friends in the world, it is not surprising that these Jews look at mass Third-World and Moslem immigration, not as a danger to themselves, but as the ultimate guarantor of their own safety, hoping that in a racially diversified, de-Christianized America, the waning majority culture will lack the power, even if it still has the desire, to persecute Jews. (“Why Jews Welcome Muslims,” Front Page Magazine, 22nd June 2004 — note that the article has been removed from FPM)

Auster wrote that in the first decade of the twenty-first century. In the second and third decade of the century, Jews continued to work hard for their dream of “a racially diversified, de-Christianized America.” And a “racially diversified, de-Christianized” Britain, France and Germany too. Oy veh again! After October 7, Jews have begun to realize that their dream has turned into a nightmare. That’s why I can say “Three Jews, One Opinion” of the highly ethnocentric Jews Jonathan Freedland, David Davidi-Brown and Franklin Foer. Freedland and Davidi-Brown are in Britain, Foer is in America, but all three of them are united in dismay at the failure of their “natural allies” to rally to their cause and recognize how hard Jews have worked to undermine Whites and uplift non-Whites:

A faith in immigration — the idea of America as a sanctuary for the refugee, the belief that subsequent groups of arrivals would experience the same up-from-the-shtetl trajectory — was a core tenet of Jewish liberalism. A Jewish poet had written the lines about huddled masses inscribed at the base of the Statue of Liberty. If America was a nation of immigrants, that made Jews quintessential Americans. […] In the old Jewish theory of American politics, the best defense against the anti-Semitism of the right was a united left: minorities and liberal activists locking arms. When I was young, rabbis and elders reverently told us about the earnest young Jews in chunky glasses who had jumped aboard the Freedom Rides; about Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, in his unmissable kippah, marching right next to Martin Luther King Jr.; and about the martyrdom of Andrew Goodman and Michael Schwerner, two Jews who had been murdered alongside James Chaney, a Black Mississippian, for their work registering Black Americans to vote. A coalition of the tolerant pressed the country to live up to its ideals. (“The Golden Age of American Jews Is Ending,” The Atlantic, 4th March 2024)

That’s Franklin Foer in the Atlantic, bemoaning the way in which “The Golden Age of American Jews Is Ending.” Yes, what he calls “the political and cultural ascendance” of Jews is fading as dark forces rise on both right and left. His article is full of Semitic self-pity and Semitic solipsism. But one thing it lacks entirely is Semitic self-critique. The same is true of the articles by Jonathan Freedland and David Davidi-Brown. I can also say “Three Jews, One Omission.” Self-pity and solipsism? All present and correct. Self-critique? Absent without leave. Foer, Freedland and Davidi-Brown refuse to admit that Jews are directly responsible for their own misfortune. Jews have used their “political and cultural ascendance” across the West to do what they thought was best for Jews and worst for Whites. Again, they were half-right. What they did was indeed worst for Whites. But it turned out to be worst for Jews too. For decades, Jews have demonized Whites and the West whilst importing non-Whites, privileging non-Whites, and telling non-Whites that Jews are their “natural allies.” Since October 7, they’ve discovered with dismay that non-Whites in general, and Muslims in particular, regard Jews as hyper-White and hyper-Western, not as “natural allies.”

Murder menaces minority

Larry Auster saw that coming. The vast majority of other Jews did not. That’s because Auster was Semitic, but not solipsistic. Unlike the vast majority of Jews, he didn’t think the Universe revolved around Jews and didn’t assume that non-Jews would accept Judeocentrism as an unquestionable axiom of politics and culture. Indeed, he knew they wouldn’t. Jonathan Freedland still doesn’t know that, which is why he cried out like this in the Guardian: “A British minority faces a murderous threat on our streets. Where are the so-called anti-racists?” Jonny the Jew had reasoned that “Anti-racists stand up for minorities under murderous threat and Jews are a minority under murderous threat. Therefore anti-racists will stand up for Jews.” But anti-racists haven’t stood up for Jews. Jonny the Jew is baffled that his logic had failed:

The demonstrations [against Israel’s war on Gaza] would not need to be policed for hate speech [against Jews] if they were genuinely self-policed. Such a move should come naturally. It’s a good bet that every single person on those protests would call themselves a proud anti-racist. Indeed, they would say that’s a big part of why they’re there in the first place. Surely, then, they would want to be free of even the hint of racism. And yet organisers have never once approached mainstream Jewish groups, seeking guidance on how they might tackle this problem. […]

So if the organisers won’t act, perhaps the wider anti-racist movement will. And this gets to the heart of the matter. Governments can’t eradicate racism; only society itself can do that. But where are those who should be leading that effort? Where are those who are usually so vocal in their opposition to racism, now that one of Britain’s oldest minorities is facing a violent, murderous threat on the streets?

Where are the actors and celebrities who ordinarily waste no time in declaring their solidarity with the oppressed, even those many thousands of miles away, now that British Jews are stabbed in London for no reason other than that they are visibly Jewish? The silence of those otherwise so noisy is remarkable — and we Jews hear it loud and clear. (“A British minority faces a murderous threat on our streets. Where are the so-called anti-racists?,” The Guardian, 1st May 2026)

David Davidi-Brown has displayed the same Semitic solipsism in the same newspaper. A standard solipsist believes only in “Me, Me, Me.” A Semitic solipsist believes only in “We, We, We” — “We Jews are the ones that matter and everyone else should put us and our welfare first.” That’s why Davidi-Brown wrote this in the Guardian: “I have seen how afraid Jews in Britain have become. We need our allies now more than ever.” But have those “allies” flocked to the support of fearful Jews? Oy veh, they haven’t:

Jewish people in Britain are feeling afraid, isolated and, too often, ignored. In recent weeks I’ve been part of conversations where people have said they’re looking to leave the UK, or have already left, largely due to the rise in hatred and violence we face as Jews. I have spoken with parents nervous about their children securing a place in a Jewish school, hoping to protect them from the harassment and bullying experienced by too many Jewish pupils in secular schools.

When friends see my Star of David on show, they ask with surprise why I have not joined those choosing to conceal their Jewishness in public. This attitude should be shocking to all in Britain — and even more so to progressives and anti-racists. Some of what we have seen from those we most expect to confront anti-Jewish racism has added pain and a further sense of alienation to recent events. (“I have seen how afraid Jews in Britain have become. We need our allies now more than ever,” The Guardian, 20th April 2026)

You can see Davidi-Brown’s Semitic solipsism very clearly in the bad logic here: “This attitude should be shocking to all in Britain.” He takes for granted that Jewish welfare should be the central concern of “all in Britain.” But if it were, no-one would be “shocked” by “this attitude,” that is, the desire of Jews “to conceal their Jewishness in public” for fear of anti-Semitism. If “all in Britain” were shocked by Jewish fear of anti-Semitism, where would the anti-Semitism be coming from?

Slick trick for gullible goyim

Davidi-Brown is blinded by his Semitic solipsism to the laxity of his logic. So is Franklin Foer. Recall what Foer wrote in the Atlantic: “If America was a nation of immigrants, that made Jews quintessential Americans.” In fact, no, it didn’t. It simply made Jews “Americans,” not “quintessential Americans.” If American is a nation of immigrants, then immigrant Jews are merely Americans like everyone else, not “quintessential Americans” in a way that others aren’t. Without realizing it, Foer was admitting the falsity of the Jewish claim that “America is a nation of immigrants.” The subconscious logic of his claim goes like this:

1. We Jews know that, in reality, America is a White nation carved from wilderness by White settlers who did so for “ourselves and our Posterity,” that is, for Whites and their descendants, not for Jews and other non-Whites.
2. We Jews were immigrants into this already established White nation that we did nothing to create and make prosperous. Therefore it is Whites who are quintessential Americans, not Jews, who in fact have no American essence at all.
3. Therefore we Jews need to deny the truth about the White nationhood of America and promote the lie that “America is a land of immigrants.” In this way, we elevate immigrant Jews to the status of “quintessential Americans” and strip that status from Whites.

“Nation of immigrants” is a slick trick to play on gullible goyim, I have to admit. That’s why Jews have tried to play it in European nations like Britain too, where Whites have lived for ten thousand years and more. That length of time makes Whites undeniably “indigenous” to Europe, but Jews and the leftists shaped by Jewish ideology refuse to allow Whites that obvious status. No, according to Jews “Britain is a nation of immigrants” too, not a nation of indigenes. And again, if Britain is a nation of immigrants, that makes Jews quintessentially British. More than that, it makes opponents of immigration quintessentially un-British. The same is true, mutatis mutandis, in France and Germany and all other European nations where Jews have used their “political and cultural ascendance” to demonize Whites, deny history, and deploy the mud-flood in their war on the West.

The mud-flood is what I call mass immigration by brown and Black outsiders who neither benefit Whites nor belong in the West. On the contrary: those non-White outsiders blight Whites and benight the West. But that’s precisely why Jews organized and adulated the mud-flood. Mass immigration from the Third World was worst for Whites and therefore, Jews reasoned, best for Jews. Since October 7, more and more Jews realized that they reasoned wrong. Jews have not imported natural allies, but created a golem. In Jewish legend, the golem was a monster created to defend Jews from evil gentiles. But the golem turned on its creators just as Muslims and other non-Whites have turned on their importers. Just don’t expect Jews like Freedland and Foer to admit it. Self-pity and solipsism are definitely Jewish values. Self-critique definitely isn’t. Except for rare Jews like Larry Auster, who believed in T.B.G., not in “We, We, We.”
