Jews (American Dissident Voices Weekly Transcripts)

We hope that these weekly articles will offer the reader an opposing viewpoint to the major news media. --------------------------------------------------------------- Jewish Supremacy: Those Who Want to Dominate a Multiracial Society Are Racial Supremacists; Those Who Want to Live in a Healthy, Homogeneous Society Are Racial Separatists. by Kevin Alfred Strom Have you ever noticed the psychological phenomenon in which a person will often call attention to the real or imagined faults in others that he himself suffers from? The name of this phenomenon is projection, and it certainly crops up often in life: the mentally unbalanced man accusing others of being "crazy"; the extremely jealous woman accusing her husband of not trusting her; the habitual schemer accusing his co-workers of plotting against him; the greedy man excoriating his fellows for being selfish; etc. This phenomenon is nowhere more apparent than in the controlled media's readiness to accuse anyone who believes in White survival of being what they call a "White supremacist." This has to be the most egregious example imaginable of the pot calling the kettle black. Actually, it is more like the pot calling the silverware black, since most of those accused of being À "White supremacists," or in illiterate-speak, "White supremists" [sic], are actually White separatists, a very important distinction. It is the largely Jewish masters of the media who are supremacists supreme. A separatist desires that his people should have freedom and independence from domination by other peoples, and to that end he works for the day when his people shall be able to live and provide for themselves in their own nation, without the burden of an underclass or overclass comprised of other peoples. A separatist specifically does not desire to be an overclass. He does not want to rule over any other people. In fact, a separatist does not want a multiracial society at all. A supremacist, on the other hand, wants and demands a multiracial society. In this multiracial society he wishes his race or social group to be the dominant one. The fact that this desire is usually cloaked in pretensions of beneficent intentions and "the greatest good for the greatest number" should not obscure the fact that it is a master/servant relationship that the supremacist wants. White Americans who promoted Black slavery in this country during the first half of the 19th Century could properly be called supremacists. White American businessmen who support increased Third World immigration to provide themselves with cheap labor are essentially supremacists. The White upper class have abandoned their own people, but they daub their unconscionable piggish greed and treason with a fake gilding of "tolerance" which they themselves neither believe nor practice. The world champions of hypocrisy when it comes to ethnic supremacy, however, have to be the organized Jews. Dominant in the Hollywood/New York cultural axis, when anyone challenges their interests they are quick to denounce with the words that they have made into terms of opprobrium: "racist," "White supremacist," etc. In their movies and their newscasts they are zealous in their promotion of the idea of a multiracial, multicultural society in which all live in perfect harmony. In fact, the genesis of this "multicultural" moral and social construct was with the leftist media Jews and their allies, as they themselves admit in private Jewish publications (see previous article, "Yiddishkeit Pathology." But a careful examination of organized Jewry's attitudes towards other races reveals a quite different face from that presented to the public. In fact, it can be fairly said that Jewish religion and Jewish practice exemplify racial supremacy at its most hateful and its most outrageous. In truth, after examining definitive Jewish religious documents one can be forgiven for thinking that racism just might have been invented by the Jews. Let's take a look at the record. A few years ago a friend of mine, after a long evening discussing politics and conspiracy, asked me, "If there really were a Jewish plan to dominate and enslave us as you say, surely someone would have defected and spilled the beans on his fellow conspirators." "Well," I replied, "I agree that would be the very best evidence of all." I can tell you now that such evidence not only exists, but it is plentiful. It is not all in one place, and one has to examine the testimony of more than one individual to get the complete picture, but there are indeed defectors from what my friend called the "Jewish conspiracy." I am not sure how well the word "conspiracy" now applies to a domination presently being conducted more and more out in the open, but a conspiracy it once was, and defectors it has surely had, though not all of them would have claimed that title. Long-time readers will be familiar with the names of a few of these: Benjamin H. Freedman, Alfred Lilienthal, Victor Ostrovsky, Samuel Roth, Marcus Eli Ravage, Noam Chomsky, Israel Shahak. Each provides a piece of truth that the ruling establishment does not wish you to know. Today let us examine Israel Shahak. Israel Shahak is a professor emeritus at Hebrew University and longtime Israeli dissident. Israel Shahak is a liberal Jew who excoriates "Nazis" repeatedly and vociferously in his writings. Israel Shahak is himself a former resident of the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp during World War II. He was raised as an Orthodox Jew. He is a Jew who settled in Palestine in 1945 and was witness to the founding of the state of Israel. And he is a powerful opponent of Jewish hypocrisy. The extraordinary thing about Israel Shahak is that he does not have a double standard for Jews and non-Jews when it comes to racial supremacy. Shahak is against racial supremacy whether practiced by Jews or non-Jews, and he finds that it is practiced extensively by Jews and is in fact part of their religious traditions. Professor Shahak finds this morally disturbing and not in the long-term interests of Jews. Professor Shahak has published a book which examines the issue of Jewish racism in detail, Jewish History, Jewish Religion: The Weight of 3,000 Years. Israel Shahak says that Judaism and its teachings are "poisoning the hearts and minds" of its followers and have been doing so for thousands of years. In a recent forum at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, he acknowledged that Jews have been persecuted in the past, but emphasized that today "it is quite common that a persecuted group becomes the persecutor." One of Shahak's favorite activities is translating the Hebrew press into English for the edification of the rest of us, a practice which has earned him the burning hatred of many in the Jewish establishment. One article he translated recently, by Israeli journalist Tom Segev, relates the writer's random walk through Jerusalem in the company of an Arab lawyer. The lawyer was stopped repeatedly by Israeli guards and his identification papers were demanded. One guard ordered him, "Come here, jump." Then the guard dropped his papers on the road and, laughing, demanded that the Arab pick them up. Aside to the Jewish journalist the guard stated, "These people will do whatever you tell them to do. If I tell him to jump, he will jump. Run, he will run. Take your clothes off, he will take them off. If I tell him to kiss the wall, he will kiss it. If I tell him to crawl on the road, won't he crawl? . . . Everything. Tell him to curse his mother and he will curse her too." The guard continued, offering his opinion that the Arabs are "not human beings." The border guards then searched the lawyer, gratuitously slapping him, and ordered him to remove his shoes, warning him that they could order him to remove all his clothes if they so chose. Segev continues: "My Arab kept silent and sat down on the ground." The border guards laughed and said again, "Really, not humans." This, of course, is a relatively mild example of the attitude of many Jews toward Gentiles, but it suffices to show the mentality involved. Shahak, in an article entitled "The Ideology Behind the Hebron Massacre," gives us some additional recent examples of this widespread Jewish attitude. He translates a few of the statements of a religious group in Israel called the Gush Emunim, which, according to Shahak, "enjoy[s] [Yitzhak] Rabin's friendship and strong influence in wide circles of the Israeli and diaspora Jewish communities." This sect states that Jews are not and cannot be a normal people. One of their leaders, Rabbi Schlomo Aviner, stated,". . . while God requires other normal nations to abide by abstract codes of justice and righteousness, such laws do not apply to Jews. Rabbi Israel Ariel states, "A Jew who kills a non-Jew is exempt from human judgment, and has not violated the prohibition of murder." According to Gush Emunim rabbis, "all Arabs living in Palestine are thieves because since the land was once Jewish, all property to be found on that land really belongs to the Jews." These Jewish fanatics feel invincible. They possess one of the world's most powerful military machines (built up by five billion or more U.S. dollars in annual aid) and have plenty of potential American cannon fodder at their disposal. They state: "Israel need have no fear of future wars, and can even provoke them at will . . . Even if there is peace, we must instigate wars of liberation in order to conquer . . ." In Shahak's article former Knesset member Rabbi Eliezar Waldman, who is now the director of the main Jewish school in Kiryat Arba, expresses the view "that by fighting the Arabs, Israel carries out its divine mission to serve as the heart of the world . . . while Arab hostility springs, like all anti-Semitism, from the world's recalcitrance against being saved by the Jews, . . . or from Arabs seeking to fulfill their collective death-wish." Shahak recounts the answer of a rabbi who was asked by an Israeli soldier if it was proper to kill Arab women and children. The rabbi's answer was a quote from the Jewish holy book, the Talmud "The best of the gentiles . . . kill him; the best of snakes . . .dash out its brains." Some holy book; some religion! Shahak contends that Jews are imbued with such attitudes to the degree that they are immersed in Judaism. In his book he explores the anti-Gentile outlook of Judaism's Talmud. He writes: "According to the Jewish religion, the murder of a Jew is a capital offense and one of the three most heinous sins (the other two being idolatry and adultery). Jewish religious courts and secular authorities are commanded to punish, even beyond the limits of the ordinary administration of justice, anyone guilty of murdering a Jew . . . When the victim is a Gentile, the position is quite different. A Jew who murders a Gentile is guilty only of a sin against the laws of Heaven, not punishable by a court. To cause indirectly the death of a Gentile is no sin at all. "Thus, one of the two most important commentators on the Shulhan 'Arukh explains that when it comes to a Gentile, "one must not lift one's hand to harm him, but one may harm him indirectly, for instance by removing a ladder after he had fallen into a crevice . . . there is no prohibition here, because it was not done directly." "A Gentile murderer who happens to be under Jewish jurisdiction must be executed whether the victim was Jewish or not. However, if the victim was Gentile and the murderer converts to Judaism, he is not punished. Shahak reveals that according to the Talmud: "Sexual intercourse between a married Jewish woman and any man other than her husband is a capital offense for both parties, and one of the three most heinous sins. The status of Gentile women is very different. The Halakhah presumes all Gentiles to be utterly promiscuous and the verse "whose flesh is as the flesh of asses, and whose issue [of semen] is like the issue of horses" is applied to them . . . Therefore, the concept of adultery does not apply to intercourse between a Jewish man and a Gentile woman; rather the Talmud equates such intercourse to the sin of bestiality . . . "According to the Talmudic Encyclopedia: "He who has carnal knowledge of the wife of a Gentile is not liable to the death penalty, for it is written: `thy fellow's wife' rather than the alien's wife . . . and although a married Gentile woman is forbidden to the Gentiles, in any case a Jew is exempted." "This does not imply that sexual intercourse between a Jewish man and a Gentile woman is permitted -- quite the contrary. But the main punishment is inflicted on the Gentile woman; she must be executed, even if she was raped by the Jew: "If a Jew has coitus with a Gentile woman, whether she be a child of three or an adult, whether married or unmarried, and even if he is a minor aged only nine years and one day . . . because he had willful coitus with her she must be killed, as is the case with a beast, because through her a Jew got into trouble." "If a Jew finds property whose probable owner is Jewish, the finder is strictly enjoined to make a positive effort to return his find by advertising it publicly. In contrast, the Talmud and all the early rabbinical authorities not only allow a Jewish finder to appropriate an article lost by a Gentile, but actually forbid him or her to return it . . . "It is forbidden to defraud a Jew by selling or buying at an unreasonable price. However, fraud does not apply to Gentiles, for it is written: Do not defraud each man his brother . . . The Halakhah interprets all such idioms [as each man his brother or neighbor] as referring exclusively to one's fellow Jew. "In 1962 a part of the Maimonidean Code . . . the so-called Book of Knowledge, which contains the most basic rules of Jewish faith and practice, was published in Jerusalem in a bilingual edition, with the English translation facing the Hebrew text. The latter has been restored to its original purity, and the command to exterminate Jewish infidels appears in it in full: "It is a duty to exterminate them with one's own hands." In the English translation this is somewhat softened to: "It is a duty to take active measures to destroy them." But then the Hebrew text goes on to specify the prime examples of "infidels" who must be exterminated: "Such as Jesus of Nazareth and his pupils, and Tzadoq and Baitos [the founders of the Sadducean sect] and their pupils, may the name of the wicked rot." Not one word of this appears in the English text on the facing page (78a). And, even more significant, in spite of the wide circulation of this book among scholars in the English-speaking countries, not one of them has, as far as I know, protested against this glaring deception. Jew Israel Shahak has done the world a great service. He has been intellectually honest and very courageous. In Israel he speaks against Judaism at a very real risk to his life so as to reveal the truth about the most long-standing and utterly hostile racism the world has ever seen: Jewish racism. Israel Shahak's works make it clear that the new religion of "equality" promoted by the Jewish establishment is for Gentile consumption only. Organized Jews promote "equality," but they believe in the very opposite. They believe that they are a special, chosen people, destined to rule all others and to own all the wealth of the world. They are fanatical about preserving their heritage and their identity, their exclusive Jewish schools, and their organizations. The prevailing Jewish world view is a textbook example of the racial supremacy they are so fond of accusing others of having. What can we learn from this? I assure you it is not my purpose to promote hatred or racial supremacy from our side of the racial divide. The very fact that I devote so much space to truth-telling Jewish dissidents should prove that. I think we can learn a lot from an unbiased observation of Jewish activities. First we must acknowledge that they have been amazingly successful at surviving. Surrounded by often hostile majorities, they have preserved their identity, their culture, and the germ of their racial uniqueness through millennia. For that we can credit their intense sense of identity and solidarity and their belief in themselves as a people. I deeply wish that we Europeans could emulate them in this regard, for then our survival would be assured. But I cannot recommend their hypocrisy as an example to be followed. This hypocrisy always leads them to practice a supremacist rather than a separatist way of life. Despite some Zionist denials the Jewish way of life shows every sign of continuing on its perpetual path of living among other peoples as a solid, organized minority and attempting to gain the upper hand in Gentile nations by promoting the poisonous idea of a raceless society. This destructive and hypocritical approach is sure death for the Gentiles, of course, and in the long run always backfires on the Jews. That is precisely what Professor Shahak is worried about. I think that racial separatism, not supremacy, is the only path to independence and freedom for all peoples on this planet. It is also a path that is in harmony with our natural instincts. Our instincts -- all of them -- are there for very important reasons, and we would not be what we are if it were not for the instincts which led us to survive the rigors of Ice Age Europe and to consider ourselves fundamentally different from peoples who developed closer to the Equator.

Newt may be more receptive to encryption now
by Scottauge＠aol.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Given his troubles with this "hay seed" scanner recording democrats, ol' Newt may be more receptive to encryption. Our privacy certainly is getting trashed by this presidency and I am hoping an impeachment is coming down the line. Since the congress is who makes the laws, maybe we all can focus some snail mail to these guys. Perhaps EFF could even draft some laws for our protection (what a joke - just to keep busy body beaurocrats outta our business). What does it matter anyhow, these guys dont read their own 300 - 5000 page laws anyhow.... Hopeless....

Response to my post about Karn case and Judge Ginsberg

Attached is a response. --Declan] ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 15 Jan 1997 10:48:46 From: [Name deleted -DBM] To: Declan McCullagh <declan(a)well.com> Subject: Re: Karn case challenging crypto rules -- oral arguments online I don't know if you're aware of this case, but Judge Ginsberg wrote the most disturbing dissenting opinion on a national security issue that I can think of in recent years. It was a lawsuit involving old FBI COINTELPRO activity from the late 1950s. The widow of a prominent Communist sued the FBI for ruining her husband's career. It seems the FBI planted falsified documents implying that he was an FBI spy where his fellow communists would find them. To prove the case, the plaintiff needed FBI records requested under FOIA. The FBI refused, citing "national security". Two of the judges reviewing the case sensibly noted that dirty tricks on American citizens during the 1950s are hardly a national security issue today. Ginsberg, however, wrote a chilling dissent. He *censored* the key parts of his dissent, because they were based on classified information. The plaintiff was not permitted to see the heart of Ginsberg's justification. That's as close to a secret court as I've ever heard of in the US. The case was settled out of court after the FBI lost the suit, but to this day, I think Ginsberg is the worst judge in the Federal courts. I remember this story from the NY Times, but I'm sure you can find the details yourself if you're interested. At any rate, I would consider Ginsberg highly susceptable to "national security" arguments by the Federal govt.

Well, I can't speak for R.H., but in my own case, my KILLfile entries typically look like /toto/f:=:j which displays the subject lines as it junks the articles. Sometimes I'll see one go by which interests me, so I'll go back and read it anyway. Similarly, people who've been plonked are often quoted in somebody else's message, so I see it anyway.

After following this thread for some time, I have to question whether Americans realise how far behind the rest of the world they are in cellphone technology. Most of the world has been using GSM digital technology for some years now, with automatic international roaming, unless you travel to the USA. No one in their right mind uses an analogue mobile phone any more if they are concerned about eavesdropping. The Newt incident simply could not happen with GSM. Of course in most countries the government controls the federal police, not the other way round. Greg Brisbane Australia

Privacy Issue (ANI in SF Bay Area)
by Ryan Russell/SYBASE 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Here's something cute: Yesterday PacBell turned on ANI on our trunk groups, for local area calls. On their own, mind you, without request from us. If you call anyone here with a display phone, it displays your number, even if you have caller-id blocking on or you do a *70 (for those who don't know, ANI is not caller-id, you can't block your number from being displayed with ANI.) It also grabs your phone number if you leave a voice mail, so even folks without display phones can benefit. I post this thinking it may be of interest. I actually disagree that people ought to be able to block their number. My feeling is that if someone is calling me, they have no right be anonymous. Of course, I realize that this is easy to defeat with call forwarding and such.. In fact, if I call you from my work phone..you won't see my direct dial number...you'll see a number for PacBell's trunk group. Now...I just have to figure out how PacBell is charging us.. if it's .01$ per call like regular ANI...at 100,000 calls per day.. Hmm...first fix is free? A new PacBell marketing program? Our CIO loves the new "feature." Ryan

It was a conference call but over a cellular phone. Martin had hacked his Radio Shack Scanner using a well known technique. He had a radio ham license. I still don't expect a conviction. Lets see a guy gets a tape he believes shows that the Speaker of the house lied to the ethics committee. He hands it to a senior member of the ethics committee of the house despite knowing that in doing so he put himself at risk of prosecution. Does anyone in their right mind expect any jury to convict in such a case? Basically a trial would be open season for the defense to take pot shots at Newt. Q. "Why did you not hand the tape over to the chair of the committee? A. I thought they might try to suppers it. Q. Why did you give the tape to MacDermott? A. I thought it showed that the Speaker had acted illegally. Q. Illegal? How? A [at very great length to be repeated verbatim on CNN twice an hour] As a first time offender the most the Martins could expect to suffer would be a $5000 fine. They could easily recoup that on the chat show circuit. This is the country where Ollie North launched his political career by subverting the constitution and lying to congress and where JO Simpson murdered his wife and got away with it. Don't expect the Martins to be occupying a jail cell any time soon. Newt on the other hand... Phill
