Jews and Other Minorities

In this video, Ann Schaffer, director of the American Jewish Committee’s Belfer Center for American Pluralism, states the basic philosophy of Jews in America:

The Jewish community has always worked on the premise that as a minority, our security, our strength, our well being in America is interdependent with those of other minorities. This is a Jewish issue. It’s very much a Jewish issue.

This is quite correct, but it’s nice to see it so explicitly and baldly expressed. This is from The Culture of Critique: The quote is from Jewish academic activist Earl Raab:

“The Census Bureau has just reported that about half of the American population will soon be non-white or non-European. And they will all be American citizens. We have tipped beyond the point where a Nazi-Aryan party will be able to prevail in this country.

We [Jews] have been nourishing the American climate of opposition to bigotry for about half a century. That climate has not yet been perfected, but the heterogeneous nature of our population tends to make it irreversible—and makes our constitutional constraints against bigotry more practical than ever (Raab 1993b, 23)”

Positive attitudes toward cultural diversity have also appeared in other statements on immigration by Jewish authors and leaders. Charles Silberman (1985, 350) notes, “American Jews are committed to cultural tolerance because of their belief—one firmly rooted in history—that Jews are safe only in a society acceptant of a wide range of attitudes and behaviors, as well as a diversity of religious and ethnic groups. It is this belief, for example, not approval of homosexuality, that leads an overwhelming majority of U.S. Jews to endorse ‘gay rights’ and to take a liberal stance on most other so-called ‘social’ issues.”

The footnote is as follows:

Moreover, a deep concern that an ethnically and culturally homogeneous America would compromise Jewish interests can be seen in Silberman’s (1985, 347–348) comments on the attraction of Jews to “the Democratic party . . . with its traditional hospitality to non-WASP ethnic groups. . . . A distinguished economist who strongly disagreed with Mondale’s economic policies voted for him nonetheless. ‘I watched the conventions on television,’ he explained, ‘and the Republicans did not look like my kind of people.’ That same reaction led many Jews to vote for Carter in 1980 despite their dislike of him; ‘I’d rather live in a country governed by the faces I saw at the Democratic convention than by those I saw at the Republican convention’ a well-known author told me.”

I recall reading that in the 1930s well-meaning Whites advised Jews not to ally themselves with Blacks — obviously to no avail. The Jewish-Black alliance, although a bit shaky at times, has been remarkably strong over the last century, and now the alliances are expanding to other non-White groups. Shaffer goes on to discuss current projects aimed at making alliances with non-Whites, claiming disingenuously that it’s good for “all Americans.”

I think this is going to result in huge management problems down the line for Jews — not the least of which is White anger at the role of Jews in these transformations when they find themselves as a minority surrounded by an alliance of hostile non-White minority groups.

"Fearful suspensed animals trodding into rendering plants for destruction"

The following is from a correspondent. I suspect it reflects the attitudes of quite a few Whites observing their impending dispossession and feeling “empty, afraid and cynical.” It amazes me that such people do nothing but cower in fear aware of their impending doom but doing nothing to change things — terrified even to utter the phrase “White American.” Obviously we have to hope that a significant number of Whites are made of sturdier stuff.

Just finished your article  “The ADL: Managing White Rage“, in which you present the sinister influence and seemingly evident quandary that characterize the academia/political forces that represent the worst of “Zionist” intentions in the U.S.

I don’t think any attempt at scholarly discourse would serve any useful purpose, so I will wisely refrain from doing so.  But rather I would like to present another dimension aside from such.  That being the defeated underbelly of the collected,dispirited ethnic entity which is becoming America’s unrealized embarrassment — homogenized Whites.

Just speaking the words “White American” can cause such a range of unsettling emotions that elicit actions based on negative thoughts that totally surrender all logic and evolved pride of self. I find myself a reluctant observer to a devolvement and dissemination of once proud peoples who like fearful suspensed animals trodding into rendering plants for destruction — likewise unwaveringly plod towards unrepentant impotence.

I read with trepidity various social commentators such as yourself, exposing the beast among us — the judas priests of race if you will. I reflect, intone, and even commiserate your insights and spot-on commentary, but even after the feast of revelations and indictments, I still only feel empty, afraid and cynical for the state and future of affairs that will likely fulfill our destiny.  And I’m afraid the collective conscious that sits next to me in neat rows in deck chairs, oblivious to impending disasterous destiny on the USS Amerika, …maybe have only the dimmest of precognition of the great berg waiting in darkness at the edge of final resolution…..

The Camp of the Holy Ghosts

The incessant flooding of non-White immigrants into Europe and America raises the academic question of cause and effect. Certainly, the ongoing racial and religious changes in America and Europe are already having dramatic effects that will soon result in low intensity urban warfare. However, while it is relatively easy to study the consequences of non-White immigration and put the blame on non-White intruders and their liberal protectors, probing into the causes of the non-White immigration is far more delicate. The suicidal role of churches, especially the Catholic Church in the USA and in Europe needs to be critically examined, as does the opportunistic role toward Islam and Judaism of many White nationalists.

In all European countries, with the exception of Eastern Europe, the experiment with multiculturalism is getting uglier by the day. According to the estimates ofBritain’s Commission for Racial Equality, by the year 2011 the population of the city of Leicester in the United Kingdom will be 50 percent non-White. Non-European Muslim immigrants, mostly from northern Africa and Asia Minor, already make up more than 20 percent of the population in the French city of Marseille, the Dutch city of Rotterdam, or the Swedish Malmo. Referring to dangers presented by Lebanese, Kurdish and Turkish drug gangs, the chief of the Berlin police trade union, Eberhard Schönberg,  admits that “we no longer venture into some parts of the city”.

For fear of Muslims — and token Jews

Among White advocates, especially in America, Islam is often associated with menacing non-Europeans who are perceived to be racially and culturally light years away from any Whiteness. In contrast to ethnocentric Judaism, Christianity and Islam have been reaching out for centuries to different races worldwide. All of these three religions originated in the Near East — not in Europe. If one were, therefore, to follow this logic then one must dispense with Judaism and Christianity too, since these two religions are also non-White by birth.

Race cannot be the synonym for religion. Masses of pious and God-loving Mexican immigrants, streaming daily into North America are very Christian. But they are not White. In a similar vein many recent German converts to Islam, let alone millions of Bosnian Muslims are very European and White.
As long as Christian churches and White advocates and other right-wingers criticize Islam and Muslim immigrants, they can savour some modest success with Jewish opinion makers, or may even be perceived as doing a substitute work for them. Should they venture, however, into critical analyses of modern political beliefs, largely shaped by Jewish think tankers, all hell breaks loose. Therefore,  over the last couple of years, in an effort to gain some credibility, or a piece of the parliamentary pie, European nationalist parties, along with some prominent White Americans, have decide to toe the line of Jewish neocons and Israeli firsters — a gesture which they combine with virulent remarks about Muslim immigrants.
Islam bashing, especially after the events of 9/11, fits well into the agenda of American-Jewish opinion makers, because it deflects concerns about Jewish influence and it provides Israel with additional territorial legitimacy.
Token Jews come in handy for White nationalist effusions, as shown by the BNP posting of the Jewish councillor Pat Richardson on its board.  “I’m in the BNP because no one else speaks out against the Islamification of our country,” said Richardson. “Being Jewish only adds to my concern about this aggressive creed that also threatens our secular values and Christian tradition.”

Similar anti-Muslim and pro-Jewish words can be heard in continental Europe emanating from the influential nationalist party Vlaams Belang, whose chief, Frank Vanhecke said: “They say I’m anti-Semitic when the truth is I am one of Israel’s staunchest defenders in the European Parliament. I invite you to read my queries to the European Parliament concerning its unjust treatment of Israel, and about the support the same parliament is giving to Palestinian murderers.”
Such pathetic comments by the Vlaams Belang or the BNP, and by some American White advocates, won’t help their White constituents in the long run, nor will they appease their Jewish detractors. Quite to the contrary. Scared to death of the dreaded word ‘anti-Semite’, many European and American Whites assume that their anger at the rising tide of non-White immigrants, when couched in the eulogies of Jews and Israel, will give them extra mileage. They are wrong. They seem to forget the hard lesson German mainstream conservatives learned decades ago.  Despite crawling on all fours, bending backwards and forwards with the flurry of pro-Jewish and pro-Israeli disclaimers, Germany is not exonerated from making endless restitution payments to Jews or Israel.

[adrotate group=”1″]

A hundred years ago, a famous scholar and political psychologist, Vilfredo Pareto, described in his thick volumes the non-logical actions of liberal political actors and their desperate methods of rationalizing their aberrant political decisions. His analyses could well fit into the study of the mindset of prominent White advocates and their neurotic attitudes toward Jews. Servility never disarms the tormentor; it only makes the servile victim look more despicable in the tormentor’s eyes.
Another backlash of proxy White identity can be spotted among Whites’ grotesque veneration of Palestinians. This is in particular true among French “identitarians,” who enjoy sporting the Palestinian flag — often as a subterfuge for their condensed anti-Jewish feelings. Many European nationalists like to exhibit bizarre humanitarian emotions for this alien out-group, while neglecting the plight of their own White kinsmen in their own neighbourhoods.

The Palestinian plight must be bewailed and bemoaned by Arabs only — not by White Americans and Europeans. Had the wealthy petro-sheiks from Qatar or Saudi Arabia more integrity and higher IQ, they could easily rock the boat and send oil prices into heaven on Wall Street, and thus help their brethren in Gaza or on the West Bank. Instead, they prefer yachting on the Croatian and the French Riviera on the look-out for White Christian women. The congenial lack of self-discipline among Arabs helps tiny Israel run the show in the Middle East — with the aid of American taxpayers.

Christian–Leftist Holy Wars

But I stand by my statement. Part of the mission of the Roman Catholic Church is to help people in need. It is our Gospel mandate, in which Christ instructs us to clothe the naked, feed the poor and welcome the stranger.

These are the words of the US Cardinal Richard Mahony, from his op-ed piecein The New York Times, although his words could easily be attributed to a leftist militant.

If anybody can break the law with impunity in Europe and America, it is the powerful Catholic clergy. Mahony openly snubbed the House bill against hiring illegal aliens. If one were to replace his words “Catholic Church” and “Gospel” with the words “Party” and the “Five Years Plan” respectively, one could read a carbon copy of the new Communist Manifesto. Frightened at the sight of the vanishing White flock and reeling from the pedophile scandals, the Catholic clergy in America must look now for less intelligent and more credulous faithful, notably among Latin American immigrants.

Almost without exception the French higher and lower clergy is known for its left-leaning, pro-immigration politics. Given that less than 10 per cent of White French attend Sunday mass, the French Catholic Church must search for new sheep among non-White immigrants. It is common to observe the French clergy break the law by providing safe havens on the church premises for non-European immigrants, including Muslims from North Africa. The words by the notorious French bishop, Jacques Gaillot, who is openly pro-homosexual, pro-Muslim, pro-Arab and pro-immigration, as related by the influential French left-leaning weekly Le Nouvel Observateur online forum, says it all:

Undocumented foreigners are honoring us when they knock on the doors of churches. When they come to St Hippolyte and at St Merri they ask the Church to support them and to make their plight known, because they know that the Church has common bonds with foreigners. And sometimes the foreigner evokes the words of Jesus: “I was a foreigner and you welcomed me.” We do not have to imitate what foreign countries could do to Europeans if they were to go to mosques. It is not because Muslim countries would not welcome Europeans that we have to be like them. We have the responsibility to host those who are human beings as ourselves.

Last year in May, Italy passed strict laws against illegal immigrants making it a felony to work and reside in Italy without proper documents. The Pope, however, could not wait to slam the right-wing Silvio Berlusconi government as “racist and xenophobic.”  In January this year, after race riots had broken out in Calabria, in southern Italy, the Catholic clergy promptly sided with the African immigrants.

But what else can one expect from the Catholic Church whose doctrine is based on the dysgenic idea of “love thy neighbor”?   The Pope’s spokesman reiteratedrecently that “the Church had always sought to defend the dignity of immigrants, particularly the weak and the feeble, around the world.“

Such priestly statements must be fine music for the ears of non-European  immigrants, and it would be naive to think that they ignore the consequences of Samaritan gifts provided by their Catholic hosts.

One would think that traditional Catholics affiliated with the Society of Saint Pius have more racial awareness, because, unlike the Vatican,  they resolutely attack the Islamification of Europe. Undoubtedly, the European Catholicintégristes command a certain respect among prominent rightwing French academics and politicians sympathetic to the French Le Front National. Yet the stance of the Society of Saint Pius on non-European immigrants and on race mixing is not much different from the one espoused by the Vatican. How can it be otherwise in view of St Pius branches and supporters scattered in far away non-European countries, such as the Philippines or Latin America?

Although fully obedient to Rome, Catholics in Slovakia, Hungary or Croatia are far more racially aware than their counterparts in Bavaria or Ireland. It is common to hear homilies by Croat Franciscan priests in the Catholic missions inPittsburgh, Sydney or Zagreb, implicitly urging young Croats to marry only within White Christian gene pool. East European Christians, particularly Christian Orthodox Serbs and Roman Catholic Croats have far less political compunctions about criticizing Muslim non-European immigrants than their Western equivalents — as shown by their ugly treatment of  Bosnians Muslims during the recent war in the Balkans. In Serb and Croat national sagas and myths, words like ‘Arab’ or ‘Turk’ are synonymous with evil. However, their own mutually exclusive nationalism, largely due to their past interreligious quarrels, makes any revival of an all-out, across the board White consciousness in Europe, at least for now, risible and far-fetched.

The Catholic Church in Central and Eastern Europe is a projection of local White national identity and not so much the symbol of spiritual salvation. Catholic Poland, Slovakia, Croatia and Hungary take special pride in calling themselves “antemurale cristianitatis”, or “antimurale occidentis — i,e,, the “bulwark of Christianity” and the “rampart of the West” — first against Turkic Islamic invaders, then against godless communism.  Seen in retrospect, communist repression in Eastern Europe strengthened the role of the Catholic Church and the White consciousness of its congregation. By contrast, in Western Europe the liberal system is now quickly turning the Catholic Church into a multiracial clearing house.

Certainly, in the very near future Christian meek shall inherit the old Earth — and the new Gulag.

Christopher Donovan: The Secret to Long Life: "Right Tribe"

Christopher Donovan:  In this video, speaker Dan Buettner reviews three world spots — Sardinia, Okinawa, and Loma Linda, California (home of a community of 7th-day Adventists) — where people regularly live to be 100.

He throws in some political correctness (like claiming that the Adventists are racially mixed, which I question the extent of), but the biggest conclusion is:  You live long by having a connectedness with your fellow humans, as well as a sense of both daily and ultimate purpose.  More than drink, drugs and fried foods, it’s isolation and nihilism that kill.  Never mind the Stairmaster — get some friends.

How is “tribe life” best achieved?  Well, racial homogeniety is an unstated but obvious factor.  Neither Sardinia nor Okinawa are even remotely multiracial or multicultural.

On the basis of studies, demographic movements and a thousand personal anecdotes, I surmise that the most corrosive environments for humans are multiracial societies where everyone’s got their guard up about everyone else — including members of their own race.  Rather than cooperate and blend, they scrap and fight.  In effect, life in a multiracial society — especially for Whites denied any sense of an explicit White community — is de facto isolation.  We know that human racial groups are programmed by evolution to trust in-group members more than outsiders — not because they’re “racist” or morally deficient, but because from primitive to modern times, the outsiders were rightly seen as competitors for resources and power.

It’s not much of a stretch, then, to imagine that a lot of stress reduction comes from living in a racially homogenous setting.  Who knew that we “scary racists” were really just health gurus underneath it all?

Tom Sunic’s "Camp of the Holy Ghosts"

Tom Sunic’s “Camp of the Holy Ghosts” raises a number of important issues. Should White advocates curry favor with Zionists in the hope of getting Jewish support for their aims? Sunic thinks not: “Such pathetic comments by the Vlaams Belang or the BNP, and by some American White advocates, won’t help their White constituents in the long run, nor will they appease their Jewish detractors.”

I suspect that is correct. The only reason the organized Jewish community would really get behind White advocacy in a quid pro quo for support of Zionism would be if White advocacy already had substantial power — which it does not. Jewish power and influence will be directed at supporting their own ethnostate of Israel and dispossessing Whites in the Diaspora for exactly as long as that strategy continues to work. If White activism makes headway, Jews will certainly attempt to participate in order to promote Jewish interests within that new environment.

If this is the case, then it certainly makes sense for at least some factions of White advocacy to continue to document and critique the role of Jewish power and influence in the dispossession of Whites, if only in the interest of historical accuracy. But I also think that Whites who understand Jewish influence are simply more aware of how things work and therefore less likely to succumb to Jewish ideologies like neoconservatism as a solution for White dispossession. For example, it horrifies me that even people like Glenn Beck — probably the most implicitly White mainstream conservative and regarded as an extremist by the ADL — is nevertheless solidly in favor of legal immigration:”I’m not a racist. [Illegal immigration] isn’t to be confused with legal immigration.”

Another important point in Sunic’s article is the contrast between Catholicism in Eastern and Western Europe:

The Catholic Church in Central and Eastern Europe is a projection of local White national identity and not so much the symbol of spiritual salvation. Catholic Poland, Slovakia, Croatia and Hungary take special pride in calling themselves “antemurale cristianitatis”, or “antimurale occidentis — i,e,, the “bulwark of Christianity” and the “rampart of the West” — first against Turkic Islamic invaders, then against godless communism.  Seen in retrospect, communist repression in Eastern Europe strengthened the role of the Catholic Church and the White consciousness of its congregation. By contrast, in Western Europe the liberal system is now quickly turning the Catholic Church into a multiracial clearing house.

Catholicism and Christianity in general have been harnessed to the power of the multicultural left which has reigned supreme since WWII. The power and influence of the multicultural left has permeated all aspects of Western intellectual and political life, including all mainstream Christian sects. But there is nothing inherent in Christianity that implies that it will inevitably cooperate in the suicide of the West. What is needed is to change the secular power structure and to actively encourage ethnically defensive forms of Christianity.

Further Evidence for the Racial Polarization of American Politics

Recent election trends clearly indicate an increasing White disenchantment with the Democrats, especially among the working class. The enraged Whites who are expressing themselves in the tax revolts, tea parties, and town hall meetings of 2009 are middle- and lower-middle class.  Ronald Brownstein points out that their incomes have been stagnating or declining for years, even during periods of economic expansion of the Bush years. Bush did nothing for the White working class, but still only 40% voted for Obama.

The Democratic vote among Whites in 2010 will probably be quite a bit lower than in the next election. In Massachusetts there was a huge shift from 2008 to 2010: In the 2008 presidential election, working class Whites voted overwhelmingly for Obama: 75% for incomes between $30-50K; 65% for incomes between $50-75K. But Brownstein notes that 60% voted for Scott Brown.  Moreover,

Much of the Democrats’ distress among blue-collar whites results from long-term changes that have re-sorted the electorate more along the lines of cultural values than of economic interests. These working-class voters, mostly conservative on cultural and foreign-policy issues, have moved toward the GOP …. But the disaffection from Democrats among blue-collar whites is especially severe now. That is probably because their financial pain has intensified. (The unemployment rate among this group, at 10.4 percent, is well over twice the level for college-educated whites.) Polls suggest that these voters have focused their discontent more at government than at business.

One can’t help thinking that “cultural values” is a code word for implicit Whiteness. No matter what they say to the pollsters, it’s hard to believe that concerns about foreign policy or gay marriage really trump economic issues in a group that has been the most negatively affected by all the economic shifts of recent decades, including mass immigration. Indeed, the shift is apparent in all White groups: “In opinion polls, college-educated white men, always a tough group for the party, are hardening in opposition; college-educated white women, Democrats’ best constituency among whites, are softening in support.”

It’s often said of Jews that they earn like Episcopalians and vote like Puerto Ricans. Now, as ethnic interests become central even for Whites, economic interests are an increasingly poor predictor for everyone. Working class Whites vote Republican just like the Episcopalians— their cultural values are to vote along with people like themselves. Similarly, non-Whites vote Democrat whether they are successful Asians and Jews or Blacks and Latinos at the bottom of the economic ladder. Their cultural values are to vote against the Republicans at least because they see the Republicans as the party of Whites.  These trends have been apparent for some time, but there seems to be increasing polarization now.

Quite a few people anticipated that an Obama presidency would produce an upsurge of White identity — that an Obama Administration would be a clear harbinger of the non-White future of America. They were right. Many Whites got caught up in the emotion of the election — the feeling of moral righteousness of putting America’s racial past behind us. But the party is over and the Obama administration is in shambles. I can’t imagine that anything like amnesty for illegal immigrants would be possible now.

If, as seems likely, the Republicans get 70% or more of the White vote in the 2010 elections, the media is going to have to confront the racial polarization of American politics. It’s definitely not the multicultural future envisioned by the activists on the multicultural left and the mainstream media for the last 40 years. If there is a racially lopsided vote, we’ll hear a lot of talk about racist Whites. But at some point, thoughtful people will realize that it is entirely legitimate for Whites to want to retain control of their country, and explicit expressions of White identity and interests will begin to be heard whether the media wants to hear them or not. And that’s all to the good.

Christopher Donovan: Radical Muslim Shoots Up Fort Hood, But Attention's on Whites?

Christopher Donovan: I try to ignore the Southern Poverty Law Center and its pathetic flailing, but this blog item was irresistable in its stupidity. 

I had been searching for stories on the Fort Hood killings, scrounging up evidence for my theory that the media has buried this story because of the heavily negative implications for multiracialism.  More on that in a second, but here’s the Google news search result for Fort Hood. 

Note that by the fourth story down, the talk is of grand marshals for parades.  I may be on to something. 

Back to the Southern Poverty Law Center.  Incredibly, they manage to flip this story into something about “white supremacists” — never minding that “white supremacists” were about as far removed from the Fort Hood killings as possible.

In fact, pro-whites are vindicated by the story, because it shows the internally destructive nature of mixing all manner of racial, ethnic and religious groups into a fighting force.

But to the SPLC, it’s an example of how we need to be on the lookout for “hate” — “hate” being something only whites are capable of, naturally.

And the SPLC has great official backing — an author of the Pentagon report they cite is Togo West, a black former Army secretary.

What a shocker that he’d come to conclusions approved by the SPLC.  Where does this absurdity end?

To put the attention back where it belongs, let me state the following.  The killings at Fort Hood by a Muslim extremist who somehow managed to become an officer in the U.S. Army is direct proof of:

* the failure of multiracialism generally

* that the military is infected with political correctness to the point of (literal) self-destruction

* the loss of security created by the destruction of white hegemony

* the failure of nerve on the part of whites who know better but fear being called a “racist” for calling attention to an obvious problem

* the ridiculous nature of the American justice system, which extends to a thoroughgoing enemy all the rights and privileges of a Revolutionary-era tavern owner

* the creeping prevalence of the “not guilty” psycho-babble culture, which had commentators wondering if the “stress of war” caused the shooter’s actions (never mind that he never saw combat).

Nidal Hassan, by his actions, repudiated everything the multiracial global elite teaches us:  that all religions and cultures can blend into an American ideal, that culture and background don’t matter, that only native or poor persons are sucked into anti-Americanism, that the military is a uniquely cohesive organization made up of all colors and creeds focused on a single goal (and is capable of overcoming differences that the rest of society can’t).

So it’s not surprising that there’s radio silence on his story.

Up next for consideration:  when and how did the U.S. military become the last pillar of traditionalism to succumb to anti-white political correctness?
