Jews as a Necessary Condition

May 9, 2014/2 Comments/in Featured Articles, Jewish Influence/by Kevin MacDonald

This video of John Mearsheimer (available also in our video archive) is a good discussion of how to conceptualize not only Jewish involvement in the Iraq war but Jewish influence generally.

The argument is that :

1. The neoconservatives were the main force behind the war.

2. The neoconservatives are a key component of the Israel Lobby, are “deeply committed to Israel,” and are involved in a variety of pro-Israel organizations such as the American Enterprise Institute and the Washington Institute for Near East Policy.

3. Other components of the Israel Lobby, notably AIPAC, were also deeply involved. Read more

Reflections on Some Aspects of Jewish Self-Deception: Part 1. Introduction

May 8, 2014/4 Comments/in Featured Articles, Jewish Self-deception/by Andrew Joyce, Ph.D.

‘Reality denied comes back to haunt.’
Philip K. Dick, Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said

Introduction

A persistent theme at TOO, and in the works of anyone objectively dealing with Jewish historiography, culture and politics, is that of self-deception. A couple of hours spent reviewing the TOO archive reveals more than thirty articles which deal directly with the subject, in addition to countless more which touch upon the obvious and undeniably negative consequences of the phenomenon on our culture and our people. An entire chapter of Kevin MacDonald’s Separation and Its Discontents: Toward and Evolutionary Theory of Anti-Semitism [1] (hereafter SAID) is devoted to the subject, and self-deception forms a major component of MacDonald’s analysis of Jews and the Left in the third chapter of The Culture of Critique (hereafter CofC).[2] Diverse examples of Jewish self-deception have also featured as a topic of discussion, though to a lesser extent, in Gilad Atzmon’s The Wandering Who? A Study of Jewish Identity Politics,[3] and Albert Lindemann’s Esau’s Tears: Modern Anti-Semitism and the Rise of the Jews.[4]

In the sixth chapter of CofC, MacDonald, noted the scale of the problem, pointing to “a general tendency for self-deception among Jews as a robust pattern apparent in several historical eras and touching on a wide range of issues, including personal identity, the causes and extent of anti-Semitism, the characteristics of Jews (e.g., economic success), and the role of Jews in the political and cultural process in traditional and contemporary societies.”[5]

Put simply, Jewish self-deception is of great and central importance to the problem we face in resisting Jewish influence in the West. Read more

Review of Mjolnir: Magazine for the Creative Arts

MJOLNIR

Mjolnir: Magazine for the Creative Artss
Issue 1: Blast Off
David Yorkshire, Editor

“Leftism is the lie writ large. In any case, the right knows that equality itself is a fabrication and can only be achieved and maintained by holding back those who strive for excellence. The opposite of equality is quality. So it is with art. Quality is known instinctively: go into any art gallery and answer honestly which you prefer, Ian Davenport or J M W Turner. Mjolnir stands for quality; Mjolnir is therefore elitist and promotes spiritual elitism in all its forms.”

—Mjolnir Magazine

Reading like a Searchlight international list of traditionalist writers, reviewers, and artists, Mjolnir’s table of contents includes David Yorkshire (editor of Mjolnir, writer for Western Spring), Jez Turner (the founder and chairman of the IONA London Forum) reviewing A K Chesterton’s Leopard Valley, Gina Hunt reviewing David Hamilton’s Culture Wars, Boris Nad (Serbian author, artist and revolutionary thinker.), Dragoš Kalajić (“one of the most significant artists, visionaries and Traditionalists of our European culture in the last quarter of the 20th century” –Open Revolt.info), southern traditionalist writer Patrick McClary, Yorkshire romantic-realist landscape artist J W Foster, a pseudonymous Australian poet going by the handle Clarence Cadel , and H P Lovecraft. Oh, and me*. Read more

We Hate Ukip: Turning Britain into a Roche Motel

May 7, 2014/2 Comments/in Featured Articles/by Tobias Langdon

You can trust someone who always tells the truth. But you can also trust someone who always lies. Mainstream British politics falls into the latter category. We have a Conservative party that hates tradition, a Labour party that hates the working class and a Liberal Democrat party that hates democracy. You can trust these three to lie endlessly in service of the rich businessmen who fund them.

Accordingly, if you want to know whether something is bad for Britain, just ask: do the Big Three say it’s good for Britain? If they do, they’re lying, so it must be bad. Which brings me to Ukip, the UK Independence Party that wants to leave the European Union and drastically cut mass immigration. The Big Three and their media allies have long worked to smear Ukip as racist and xenophobic. And now, as Ukip looks set to win the up-coming European elections, they’re working even harder:

The first cross-party campaign to condemn Nigel Farage’s party as racist is to be launched this week amid fresh polls showing Ukip may come first across England in the European elections in May.

The campaign is led by the former Labour immigration minister Barbara Roche, who claimed: “Ukip’s campaign needs to be exposed for what it is, a racist campaign. The party is practising what is in effect a form of ‘Euracism’. They are deploying the same language and tactics used by openly racist parties like the BNP, but instead of targeting migrants from Africa and Asia they are targeting migrants from within the EU.”

Labour and Tory jitters over the rise of Ukip — which led European election opinion polls for the first time over the weekend — are manifesting in an increasingly public debate in both parties about whether to attack it or oppose its anti-immigration policies.
