A lot of the support for Israel in the general white population likewise might have been because the other side was notably swarthier, giving us the opportunity to root for the lighter side in a conflict, which was receding rapidly at home.

The problem with that is that the civil rights movement didn’t happen ’til the 1950s. In the 1950s, Jews were already in the mainstream. So if marginalization was the motive, then the movement should have started 50 years earlier. …

Well, the idea that one needs to experience marginalization to advocate for the marginalized is obviously false, and is belied by the abolition movement, for example, which was driven by elite WASPs. But, to be fair, elite Jews like Walter Sachs and Henry Moskowitz were involved with the NAACP from its founding in 1909, well before the ‘50s.

I think it was more about the other side being Muslim, and being associated with arguably the nadir of American postwar prestige, the siege of the US embassy in Tehran and the failed hostage rescue.

The more Jews promote their Jewishness, the more that they become a separate thing from whites in the general consciousness. And once that happens, the more people will look at and start to quantify the proportionality of representation in various elite and influential jobs. Blending in more might be the better strategy.

Not in 1967!

Jews, like any group, have group interests. And those interests often are not in alignment with White American interests.

Simple as that.

So there are basically three areas advanced for why Jews would involve themselves in the struggle for racial equality. All three turn out to be false. But the first would be the history argument, that says blacks and Jews share a common history, and therefore Jews empathize with the historical experience of blacks, and therefore they’re willing to help. Right?

When I talk generally with white Jews about why Jews are involved in social justice or civil rights or racial equality, they’ll talk about this shared history of oppression.

And yet, there was little in the way of Jewish sympathy for Blacks in the antebellum era. The movement to end the trans-Atlantic Slave Trade and Abolitionism were Protestant affairs. Indeed, elite Jewish opinion regarding Blacks could even be characterized as hostile:

Diplomat, playwright, and journalist Mordecai M. Noah, the “most important Jew in America” during the 1830s and 1840s, according to his biographer Jonathan D. Sarna, wrote that blacks were “anatomically and mentally inferior to the white” and could find contentment only in servile labor. Noah dreaded the thought of a slave revolt and viciously condemned abolitionists. Emmanuel Hart, the first Jewish congressman from New York in the 1850s, was a leader of the conservative “hunker” Democrats, a faction that opposed any agitation against slavery and worked to uphold the interests of the slaveholding states. Editor Robert Lyon of the Asmonean, a self-described progressive who hired Reform Judaism’s leading proponent, Isaac Mayer Wise, as his literary editor, endorsed James Buchanan in 1856 as a “progressionist,” defended the Fugitive Slave Act, and called abolitionists “the foul Fiend which stalks among us.” Lyon included among the abolitionists both “Frederick Douglass the ******,” and a “heterogeneous stew of fanatics and imposters.” The notion of black suffrage was, he said, “preposterous.”

The third one, the one we get today, is Judaism: that the religion of the Jews argues for social justice, tikkun olam. Prophetic Judaism, the Reform movement, is involved with all of that.

The problem is, if one’s adherence to Judaism informs social justice, one would expect the Orthodox, those for whom traditional Judaism is most present in their everyday life, to be in the lead in racial equality. And in fact it’s the opposite. …

Well said. For the bulk of Jewish history, tikkun olam was seen as a call for proper observance of Jewish Law, not as a cry for social justice among the goyim….

And while the traditional thinking is, you know, Aren’t Jews great because they became Zionist in ’67? as a student of American Jewish history, I’m really curious why the reaction was stronger in ’67 than even in 1948. So when I did the research, I learned that the rise of black nationalism and the purge of Jews from leadership and civil rights organizations, got Jews thinking about their own nationalism.

You know, if blacks can advocate for blackness, then Jews can advocate for Jewishness. And in this sense, the Six Day War occurring in June of 1967 was perfectly timed to capture a whole bunch of young Jews who were nationalists in their proclivities, but didn’t have a place to put it. And there they could put it in Zionism.

Yeah, but that doesn’t take into account the fact that the Six Day War engendered a similar uptick in Jewish nationalism outside the US…..Frankly, I tend to think that the sight of Jews kicking so much Arab ass simply triggered a massive testosterone surge among Jewish men across the globe….

This article’s self awareness is very sanitized. It doesn’t, for example, mention key things like Jews’ experience being slaves didn’t stop them from owning slaves and helping run the slave trade in the Confederacy just as blacks’ experience with being slaves didn’t stop them from getting into the trade when sent back to Africa. But knowing those things is anti Semitic (and racist!)

I think it was more about the other side being Muslim, and being associated with arguably the nadir of American postwar prestige, the siege of the US embassy in Tehran and the failed hostage rescue.

Probably something to that….One could also add the chiliastic enthusiasm for Israel among many American fundamentalists….And there was also the Hollywood pro-Israel propaganda machine:

There has to be a better word than retconning. The only place I’ve ever seen it is here and when I had to look it up.

The split occurred after the 60’s because Jews got rich, and powerful, and blacks stayed poor, and became their useful idiots whenever they needed to stick it to the WASPs. But blacks are violent and unpredictable, so the Jews created a new class of useful idiots, gays and feminists. They are much easier to control.

There has to be a better word than retconning. The only place I’ve ever seen it is here and when I had to look it up.

I think that it works. And it’s used quite a bit in the comics:

The first published use of the phrase “retroactive continuity” is found in theologian E. Frank Tupper’s 1973 book The Theology of Wolfhart Pannenberg:[6][page needed] “Pannenberg’s conception of retroactive continuity ultimately means that history flows fundamentally from the future into the past, that the future is not basically a product of the past.”

The first known printed use of “retroactive continuity” referring to the altering of history in a fictional work is in All-Star Squadron #18 (February 1983) from DC Comics. The series was set on DC’s Earth-Two, an alternate universe in which Golden Age comic characters age in real time. All-Star Squadron was set during World War II on Earth-Two; as it was in the past of an alternate universe, all its events had repercussions on the contemporary continuity of the DC multiverse. Each issue changed the history of the fictional world in which it was set. In the letters column, a reader remarked that the comic “must make you [the creators] feel at times as if you’re painting yourself into a corner”, and, “Your matching of Golden Age comics history with new plotlines has been an artistic (and I hope financial!) success.” Writer Roy Thomas responded, “we like to think that an enthusiastic ALL-STAR booster at one of Adam Malin’s Creation Conventions in San Diego came up with the best name for it a few months back: ‘Retroactive Continuity’. Has kind of a ring to it, don’t you think?”[7] The term then took firm root in the consciousness of fans of American superhero comics.

At some point, “retroactive continuity” was shortened to “retcon”, reportedly by Damian Cugley in 1988 on Usenet. Hard evidence of Cugley’s abbreviation has yet to surface, though in a Usenet posting on August 18, 1990, Cugley posted a reply in which he identified himself as “the originator of the word retcon”.[8] Cugley used the neologism to describe a development in the comic book Saga of the Swamp Thing, which reinterprets the events of the title character’s origin by revealing facts that previously were not part of the narrative and were not intended by earlier writers.

The thing is, some Jews can get prickly about the public self awareness of other Jews. What’s Dollinger’s escape plan?

“And it’s used quite a bit in the comics”

I’m not sure that’s a positive. A good neologism for an important phenomenon should suggest the nature of the phenomenon.

There’s “blackity black black” and there’s “jewity jew jew”

Today marks the 50th anniversary of Robert Kennedy’s assassination in LA. His killer, Sirhan Sirhan, shot him because Kennedy voted to help Israel during the ‘67 Six Day War. That congressional vote cost him his life.

Literally, Kennedy gave his life for Israel.

“And it’s used quite a bit in the comics”

I’m not sure that’s a positive. A good neologism for an important phenomenon should suggest the nature of the phenomenon.

Seeing as how the SJWs (the most enthusiastic retconers) tend to view reality in terms of fantasy, a term derived from the comics seems quite appropriate….

How Fiction Forms Our Politics : The Psychology of Narratives

Comics virtually none. Movies based on 50-year-old comics a lot.

The Jewish-Black coalition had its real foundation
1) before 1945 with Jewish leftist “political entrepeneurs” looking for a bulk of footsoldiers (as a possible alternative to the industrial-worker footsoldiers) – this was one particular strategy of Jewish ascent
2) after 1945 with Jewish Leftists being ashamed and disturbed by the bad image of Communism and looking for a way out in order to reestablish themselves as a political “force for the good”. (And of course, Jewish Leftists felt marginalized even under Eisenhower.)

The “story” here is that a respectable academic is willing to attach his name to information we already knew and that a healthy society would not find controversial. It might be Cofnas’d or they might just under-publicize it. I doubt Dollinger will be Finkelsteined because he won’t be seen as comparably combative or directly threatening.
State legislators are mandating more and more “Holocaust education” and one representative (Ted Deutsch from Florida) is trying to use civil rights anti-discrimination logic to effectively ban “anti-Semitism” (it is hard to see this getting off the ground or surviving a Supreme Court challenge). Between these trends and the increasing discussions about topics that, in the recent past were notable for their controversality, it looks like an elite fumbling their near-totalitarian control. As always with this crowd, had they grasped less tightly, their grip would have been more secure.

Right, what you’re getting here is a more respectable and focused version of the Nation of Islam book. In fact, what Dollinger is really doing is repositioning the Jews as whites just as some thought leaders had begun to proudly reject Jewish whiteness. The slavery connection isn’t just too hot, it’s downright elegant in its elimination of any natural sympathy.

Comics virtually none. Movies based on 50-year-old comics a lot.

All the more fitting, then, that we use a comics derived term…..

With the German Jews of the Francfort School things are rather simple: the more they felt betrayed by the German proles, the more they looked for an alternative “revolutionary class” (but as Germans they had no particular interest in the Blacks – Adorno disdained jazz music).

But how went things in the United States? Did Jewish-Black relations improve because Jewish-“white proles” relation worsened? Were there simply no more interesting slots for young Jews in the labor unions (who in any way were no more apt for a revolution)?

OT This is really good.

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-06-03/modern-civil-war-being-fought-without-guns-so-far

It’s Zero Hedge but the piece is from an Eastern Michigan University professor.

How do civil wars happen?

Two or more sides disagree on who runs the country. And they can’t settle the question through elections because they don’t even agree that elections are how you decide who’s in charge. That’s the basic issue here. Who decides who runs the country? When you hate each other but accept the election results, you have a country. When you stop accepting election results, you have a countdown to a civil war.

The Mueller investigation is about removing President Trump from office and overturning the results of an election. We all know that. But it’s not the first time they’ve done this. The first time a Republican president was elected this century, they said he didn’t really win. The Supreme Court gave him the election. There’s a pattern here.

What do sure odds of the Democrats rejecting the next Republican president really mean? It means they don’t accept the results of any election that they don’t win. It means they don’t believe that transfers of power in this country are determined by elections.

That’s a civil war.

There’s no shooting. At least not unless you count the attempt to kill a bunch of Republicans at a charity baseball game practice.

And there was that “Time’s Up” garbage truck colliding with a congresscritter-loaded train that William Kristol knew about. But that’s just, like, two weird freak incidents. What was it Ian Fleming said? Wait till one more?

Our system of government is based on the constitution, but that’s not the system that runs this country. The Democrat’s system is that any part of government that it runs gets total and unlimited power over the country.

If the Democrats are in the White House, then the president can do anything. And I mean anything. He can have his own amnesty for illegal aliens. He can fine you for not having health insurance. His power is unlimited. He’s a dictator.

But when Republicans get into the White House, suddenly the President can’t do anything. He isn’t even allowed to undo the illegal alien amnesty that his predecessor illegally invented. A Democrat in the White House has ‘discretion’ to completely decide every aspect of immigration policy. A Republican doesn’t even have the ‘discretion’ to reverse him. That’s how the game is played That’s how our country is run. Sad but true, although the left hasn’t yet won that particular fight.

If Tom Wolfe had grown up in the internet age.

The thing that Jews and blacks have in common is they are largely urbanites. Hence, both groups have a general interest in promoting progressive policies which tend to benefit people who live in big cities. However, since there is a big income gap between blacks and Jews, their interests are also likely to clash at times. For example, Clinton-style neoliberalism would no doubt be very popular with most Jews, but wouldn’t be very popular with a lot of poor blacks.

Kudos to this Marc Dollinger fellow for some intellectual honesty.

The notable thing here is just how easily and completely the Jewish narrative falls apart given the least bit of honest scrutiny. It really is that flimsy.

This “Jews are like blacks” propaganda is one of the most ridiculous things imaginable. Other than “minority” they could not be more polar opposites. The blacks were a poor working underclass class, kept separate by the white majority. Jews in contrast were a rich rent-seeking overclass, kept separate by their rejection of integration with the majority. Blacks–at least back in the day–would have been happy to integrate. (Where the barriers were more porous in Latin America, they did and there is a color continum produced by HBD, rather than a color line.) Jews (Ashkenazi) exist because of rejection of integration in favor of tribe. (And developed baroque practices and theology to reinforce such rejection.) The philosophy of Christian universalism underlying the famous “content of their character” lines of Martin Luther King are precisely what the Jews rejected.

The reason for Jewish support of the blacks civil rights movement is easy to understand–minoritarianism. The fundamental principle that no majority people–but specifically and especially white gentiles–can be allowed to have their own stuff–businesses, country clubs, universities, neighborhoods or nations. Cause that means they could/might keep Jews from penetrating and exploiting.

The reason, damn sure wasn’t “integration”. The Jews didn’t suddenly–after 2000 years–have some sort of come to Jesus moment and decide they were historically in the wrong and really want to be besties and integrate with the gentiles and dissolve as a people. And they damn sure didn’t want the blacks to come integrate *their* neighborhoods, *their* country clubs or *their* daughters. Hell no! No this was pretty simple–stop whitey from having his own whitey stuff. Break it up.

Communism, dammit!

Much American Jewish involvement in the Civil Rights movement was “revolutionary,” motivated by the Kremlin propaganda line about American capitalists keeping Negroes down to swell the reserve army of the unemployed and to distract the workers from class struggle by fomenting racial conflict. Jewish Communists and fellow travellers wanted integration to overturn all that and also to gall and provoke the American bourgeoisie and capitalists, to “heighten the contradictions” and thereby promote the revolution.

Later, of course, the Jews like other American leftists almost completely mistook the tactic for the goal– they became so distracted by the amusements of racial conflict that they forgot about class struggle. They do get a lot of satisfaction from galling the bourgeoisie even now. Look at the way they rub Teh Genius Coates in people’s faces all the time.

Jews promoting blacks is a common thing. Was true in the USA, and was even more true in South Africa. The only reasonable explanation that I could find sounds somewhat unreasonable but still excels over others: Jews are possessed with criticism a.k.a. revolutionary spirit.

It must be especially annoying because as constant archeological excavations have shown Jews never were “slaves” in Egypt. In fact it was quite the opposite, to whatever extent Semites occupied Egypt they in fact ruled as “kings” for a period after a successful invasion known as the “Hyksos Period”(1650 BC-1550 BC).

Afterwards the Egyptian Empire Came to occupy Canaan for a period in order to ward off and prevent the many Semitic military invasions from its neighbor until around 1200 BC which is Steve’s favorite period in ancient history known as the Bronze Age Collapse.

The third one, the one we get today, is Judaism: that the religion of the Jews argues for social justice, tikkun olam. Prophetic Judaism, the Reform movement, is involved with all of that.

The problem is, if one’s adherence to Judaism informs social justice, one would expect the Orthodox, those for whom traditional Judaism is most present in their everyday life, to be in the lead in racial equality. And in fact it’s the opposite. …

Reform Judaism is not simply a more relaxed version of Judaism. It is qualitatively different from the Orthodox variety. It also has very heterodox roots and was quite distinct in different places. The leading and first Reform synagogue in Britain, for example, had its entire structure designed around British identity and the more prosaic desire to have a place where your non-Jewish fellows might be invited and not leave with the inpression that you come from a long line of backwards savages.

In Germany, as fits the relative stereotypes, the initial movement was more ideological and was imbued with heady and romantic ideas of miraculous progress and fixing the world.

Of course, the assimilationist desire was always present in both. It must sure have been embarrassing to see the orderly and elegant services of your Christian friends but return to the bizarre bearded shucking and jiving in the klingon-like language of your own tradition. Sadly though, it’s no longer the Victorian age and the assimilationist desire trends more towards the achingly politically correct.

This leads to the strange circumstance of Hebrew and ritual swaying finding its way back into services as the return to the primitive somehow carries the imprimatur of both being more authentic and somehow ‘progressive’.

In this way, one can discern a flight to white (or rather – civilisation) in 19th and 20th Century Reform Judaism with a hesitating and confused 2 steps from, 1 step back, shuffle away today! Unsurprisingly, this is very much driven by trends in society and not some devious plot.

Essentially, whereas your non-Jewish friends would once have been impressed with an orderly service and Amy Waxman’s ‘white bourgeois values’ we are now supposed to not preach what we practice.

Hmmm….you just might be onto something.

I can’t think of even one example of a prominent Jew marrying a schwartze either IRL or on TV/film. How about schwartzes joining Jewish country clubs?

OT-ish, but ultra Steve-bait: Howard Schultz may throw his kippah into the ring for 2020.

Also it’s the 76th anniversary of–the much more world historically significant–American destruction of the Japanese carriers at Midway, which essentially sealed Japan’s fate in the war. Though much more fighting and dying had to occur.

(Personally, as a half-Irish American, i’ll be happy when this Kennedy deification and mythologization has finally burnt out, over and done with and we can stop pretending these crude mediocrities were some sort of great, world historical, American titans.)

Interesting comment Tyrion.

I confess, i’m so annoyed with the cucky Christians–unwilling to fight for their survival–i’ve pretty much lost interest in even polite attendence at Christian services. Attending services of people who want my nation exterminated … definitely not on my agenda.

? Jews are white Americans.

No offense.

Off-topic:

At 51.7% in 2017, we are fast approaching the point where non-white births outnumber white births in America. If it doesn’t happen this year, it looks like it will happen in 2019. I expect members of the intellectual dark web will complain the media isn’t giving Trump the credit he deserves for being in office when non-white babies outnumbered white babies for the first time when the historical milestone is reached!

As has been pointed out numerous times previously, the sensational assertion based on Census estimates that this happened back in 2012 will turn out to merely be six or seven years premature.

The four most populous states in the union are now natally majority-minority. In California, barely one-in-four babies are white. Future president Kamala Harris is California Dreaming this for the entire country.

In Texas, it’s one-in-three. The putatively rock-ribbed Republican stronghold is undergoing a demographic transformation that will turn it purple and then blue. Texas is to my knowledge the only state in the country where whites vote more strongly Republican than non-whites vote Democrat. They do so only marginally, though–the white and non-white votes are essentially the inverse of one another. This means when non-whites reach an electoral majority in the lone star state, it’ll move to the Democrat column. The writing is on the exit polling walls:

Because being fired by Starbucks is the best platform for running for President…

Jews promote blacks in order to increase the probability that white women will mate with black men. It really is that simple.

MLK’s “Letter from a Birmingham Jail” pleaded for clergy to join the Civil Rights Movement. He quoted Old Testament prophets and New Testaments apostles, St. Thomas Aquinas (Catholic), Reinhold Niebuhr (Protestant), and Martin Buber (Jewish). He said he himself would have tried to help Christians in the Soviet Union and Jews in Nazi Germany. He appealed to everybody except Muslims, who were the bad guys then.

Clergy did join the movement in increased numbers, but it’s clear that few really wanted to do it, because MLK had to guilt-trip them into it.

You know, if blacks can advocate for blackness, then Jews can advocate for Jewishness. And in this sense, the Six Day War occurring in June of 1967 was perfectly timed to capture a whole bunch of young Jews who were nationalists in their proclivities, but didn’t have a place to put it. And there they could put it in Zionism.

The possible relationship to black nationism banging around the campus fringe is an interesting angle.

I’ve generally considered the Jewish Six-Day War identity flowering to have two main causes:

1) Everyone loves a winner / bandwagon effect.

2) Jews moving from seeking accomodation/acceptance from the WASPs to being in power. Essentially Jews were finally “out”–“we’re here, we’re Jewish, get used to it!”. But enying/copying the black power thing might have been a piece of this transition.

This paradigm shift just seems to be the way “civil rights” works. I’ve seen it with the gays over my life from “leave us alone” to “we’re here”, to “pride”, to in your face, to “you must accept us”, to we’ll harass you and destroy your career, your business, your life is you don’t think correct thoughts.

When was he fired by Starbucks?

Now we can blame Blacks for Jews becoming Zionist. If Blacks did not purge Jews from leadership and civil rights organizations, Jews would be happily helping Back oblivious to their own ethnic identity and Israel.

That suppose to be Jewish self-awareness? The most effective liars convince themselves first.

Lest ask the question what is it all about? Why the narrative is being changed? Why this new narrative is good for Jews because it must be good for Jews otherwise it would not be produced?

Simple: Blacks taught us how to be Jewish nationalists. Zionism is good. It it just like Black nationalism. Dual loyalty is good.

Another way of looking at it:

Islam was always going to be seen as The Enemy by a predominantly Christian West. Absent a total Third Reich victory in World War II — which even the most optimistic Nazis would probably regard as improbable — there was no alternative historical path in which Muslims and Christians might have joined together in happy shared hatred of the despised Jews. The only question was whether organized Judaism would align itself with the nominally Christian West or the less-nominally Muslim East.

For the most part, Jews chose Western Christendom, however weak it might appear to be. So far their choice seems to have been the correct one.

the more people will look at and start to quantify the proportionality of representation in various elite and influential jobs.

I would be grateful to anyone who who could provide some readily citable statistics for Jewish over-representation in positions of power, influence and wealth in both the public as well as the private sectors. I am trying to raise awareness among my fellow (and not-so-fellow, as the case may be) Jews. I need sources that stand a chance of being considered credible by “normies” and Respectables.

Below is a comment I composed addressing this matter, the latest of several similar comments that I have submitted to a certain Respectable site. Perhaps unsurprisingly, none have made it past moderation.

As we see from [any number of prominent examples], somehow it is considered quite acceptable for Jews to berate white gentiles for “racism” and “white privilege”– even to the point of demanding that persons-of-color and other minorities be favored over whites in the interest of promoting “diversity”. (E.g., Charles Schumer opposing judicial nominees on the grounds of them being white males.)

Meanwhile, the fact is that in just about every area of wealth and influence: business, finance, government, academia, the media, etc., Jews hold positions in numbers that far exceed any proportionality to our percentage of the population. Yet, anyone who so much as notices, much less questions, this salient fact is reflexively denounced as an anti-Semite and forthwith blacklisted and unpersoned.

As a Jew myself, I am not only ashamed of this rank double-standard but also quite apprehensive about where the inevitable increasing awareness and resentment of it may ultimately lead. Enough of the BS already! Either cut the sanctimonious moralizing about “diversity”, etc. or stop demanding that Jewish over-representation be excluded from such discussions. You cannot have it both ways.

And inside-baseball industry jargon from the people who make comics: yet less influence.

Sooner or later it might catch on, as some post-modernist academic jargon has caught on. But that example “begs the question” <wink, where's my Garner>: jargon that goes mainstream tends to waffle and expand and go soft-focus in its meaning. Many use it; few use it correctly or really know what it means.

Not really off-topic. In fact in some ways the only topic.

Yet we have people here imagining that wypipos is coming back.

[Please discard the nearly identical version of this comment that I submitted a few minutes ago (mistakenly using what is my posting handle and email address at a different site) in favor of this one. Thank you and apologies for the bother.]

As per the ‘stepping down from his role as Executive Chairman’ in the article linked to above. So just now.

US Jews went heavily Zionist after the Six Day War because everyone loves a winner – and Americans even moreso than most. Being Zionist in 1948 meant supporting something that might not win, it was a much bigger psychological risk.

A lot of Palestinians and other Levantines are very light skinned, and Mossad has no problem finding agents who make convincing Levantine Arabs. Palestinians Lebanese & Syrians don’t look much like Gulf Arabs.

OTOH Egyptians are often noticeably darker, so there’s that.

Only slightly OT but:

I’ve created a blog to more comprehensively go over a few things that seem to be of interest here. I am not an experienced writer so feedback is welcome. I won’t take it personally.

he first article is on ‘Birthright’ and how it confirmed me in British Nationalism. Somebody sort of requested it. I’ve only written a slightly navel-gazing introduction but I think it is interesting and that was important as the whole thing would be quite long and I’m still searching for the right tone.

The link is now part of my profile here.

Just googled “when was slavery abolished in the usa” and it was 1865. The last convict transported to Oz was 10/01/1868.

Therefore White Australians descended from convicts have more in common with African-Americans than Jews.

Further, I don’t recall Jews ever getting all tikkun olam over us, in fact exactly the opposite: Jews were at the forefront of abolishing the White Australia Policy. A homeland for me and not for thee.

I can’t get a definitive answer as to when “indentured servitude” ended for Whites in the USA, perhaps an iStever can help, but the the life of a White convict or indentured servent was far harsher and brutal than that of a slave in many instances due to the fact that slaves had a monetary value whereas convicts and servants were free and abundant.

Lots of good books on the subject like Sean O’Callaghan’s “To Hell or Barbados: The Ethnic Cleansing of Ireland” wherein the origin of the term redneck is explained, or Michael Hoffman’s “They Were White and They Were Slaves: The Untold History of the Enslavement of Whites in Early America”.

It’s interesting to think about why historic White slavery, whether convict or indentured servants, which lasted longer in the Western world than black slavery is not even considered a thing and that the descendants of those convicts and servants are asserted to owe a moral and financial debt to blacks. It’s also worth pondering that this perverse ahistorical moralism is promoted by the very same Jewish descendants of the majority slave owners, and convict ship transporters, who were Jews!

I wouldn’t say that ended in 1967 or 1972 either. My impression, and that’s all it is, is that as Islam has increased its temporal power in the UK, whether by demography, or rape and bombings by its adherents, so Brits are less bothered about Muslims being mistreated in Palestine.

The media helps this along – the siege of Aleppo got as much coverage in three months as the West Bank gets in a decade.

The old British concern for ‘fair play’ was a product of people comfortable in their skins and in their country – as that comfort lessens, so will that concern.

1967 is a neat explanation for the difference between the first generation of neocons, who often served in the military, and their children. Irving Kristol’s “On the Political Stupidity of the Jews” doesn’t read like anything the neocons would endorse today; the title alone is probably unacceptable today. For those keeping track of these kind of things, Bill Kristol’s mental breakdown can mostly be traced to his father’s death in 2009.

I didn’t press update information. Sorry. Now the link is in.

It is almost as though a PR department was putting a good crisis management spin on a serious issue.

Also worth noting is the capture of 1.3 million Europeans (many of whom were Irish and 2x the number of Africans brought to North America as slaves) by Barbary pirates who subsequently sold them into slavery. For some odd reason that is not mentioned in the discussion of slavery. Nor is the role Britain played in ending African slavery.

Yes. Jews kicked ass in 67 and Jews throughout the world wanted to be on the winning team.

Have you found any other Jews who acknowledge that there is a rather dramatic hypocrisy with Jews condemning white privilege and being far more over represented among the elite and coveted jobs that whites while demanding that Jewish over representation not be noticed? If so, any common denominators among those Jews?

if they stopped counting Arabs, Iranians and North Africans as white we would non-white births outnumber white births in America already.

92 million white babies were born in America from 1950-1980
68 million white babies were born in America from 1980-2010

white people stopped having children , which is the reason there were actually more white people under the age of 55 in 1970 than today.

IIRC, the term isn’t just used to refer to comics, but has its origins with comic readers.

It’s pretty suggestive, IMO: “retroactive continuity.”

“Revisionist history” and “rewriting history” are the closest terms I can think of.

Christians are a bunch of saps, waiting to be told what to think. Don’t abandon that field to Jews.

I don’t think these two events are related at all. Simply, US Jews were happy with creation of Israel in 1948, but not elated. The shadow of holocaust loomed large, but it was generally confined to Jewish circles; also, there was pervasive low key antisemitism in the US, so they naturally resorted to chameleon-like behavior. Basically -don’t stick out too much.

The 1967 war was something completely different. Jewish power in the has US increased dramatically; cultural changes that involved counter-cultural 60s were astonishing; re-ethnicization of American “ethnics” was present everywhere, not only among Jews, but also among Italians, Poles, Greeks, Irish,… Then, the Six Day War was a spectacular success & nothing succeeds like success. It gave US Jews the crucial element of ethnic-cultural-national pride only military victory can bestow & cannot be compensated by all high positions in academia, media or high finances.

The 1967 victorious war was also crucial in re-awakening of Jewish national consciousness in Soviet Union, Poland, France, Hungary, Brazil… so I would say that black nationalism & its distancing from US Jews did not play a significant role in re-Judaisation of American Jews.

“White American interests” is essentially meaningless. There are no interests that all White Americans share that all human beings don’t also share. And there aren’t really that many interests which a majority of white Americans share.

Remarkably ignorant of you.

American Christians, the product of WASP culture (and that has become increasingly true of Catholics as well, starting with assimilation toward the norms set by Mainline Protestants and increasing in pace with Vatican II), naturally would ally with Jews even against Palestinian Christians, not because of skin pigmentation but because of the cultural legacy of a Judaizing heresy: Anglo-Saxon Puritanism.

It’s bible prophecy plain and simple

So Jews should be great political allies with blacks because We Wuz Kangz enslaved their people a few thousand years ago and then fought to destroy the Jewish state in the 60s?

I get that Nixon was smart. I don’t get what he did for the country or for conservatives. He actually pushed a very liberal agenda.

what Dollinger is really doing is repositioning the Jews as whites

Why were Jews in nazi Germany required to wear yellow stars but American blacks were not required to wear any defining marker during anti-bellum slavery?

This paradigm shift just seems to be the way “civil rights” works. I’ve seen it with the gays over my life from “leave us alone” to “we’re here”, to “pride”, to in your face, to “you must accept us”, to we’ll harass you and destroy your career, your business, your life is you don’t think correct thoughts.

I’m sure you’ll be happy to know we’re now trying out a step or two beyond that. It’s homophobic to be straight and transphobic to mind that your woman used to be a man.

I can’t get a definitive answer as to when “indentured servitude” ended for Whites in the USA, perhaps an iStever can help, but the the life of a White convict or indentured servent was far harsher and brutal than that of a slave in many instances due to the fact that slaves had a monetary value whereas convicts and servants were free and abundant.

If memory serves, you could get whipped in the Navy long after slavery ended.

“(Personally, as a half-Irish American, i’ll be happy when this Kennedy deification and mythologization has finally burnt out, over and done with and we can stop pretending these crude mediocrities were some sort of great, world historical, American titans.)”

What a stupendously stupid and spiteful statement.

The assassination of both Kennedy’s had a great effect on the trajectory of the USA and the world in general. JFK’s resulted in the Vietnam war (National Security Memo 273) and Robert’s in Israel going nuclear.

There was an essay on the latter recently at this very site: https://www.unz.com/article/did-israel-kill-the-kennedies/

Btw, there would have been no need for “the much more world historically significant–American destruction of the Japanese carriers at Midway” were FDR (talk about a deified president) to take action when warned about the Japanese plans to attack Pearl Harbour. But, FDR had been goading the Japanese all along to do that very thing. Pearl Harbour was the culmination of the plan. Much like 9/11 (see General Wesley Clark’s statement about plans for the Middle East post 9/11).

But I suppose you reckon 9/11 was 100% kosher and ridgy-didge too.

Yet now the slavers should be invited to live in the homelands of their slaves. It’s only fair, right?

Disturbing. And I agree with Mishra.

Yes, the history of chattel slavery in the US shows rather clearly that because black slaves were owned, they were far more valuable to an owner of a white term slave (an indentured servant was a slave for a term of years). Even more so, the black slave was more much, much valuable to the slave owner than was any white immigrant free man.

The reason has nothing to do with work ability, much less honesty (black slaves are well attested as having stolen a lot of stuff, from their owners as well as from whites other than their owners and from each other – by the 1950s, Leftist academics were interpreting that history as blacks stealing to be social justice revolutionaries, not as blacks being criminally inclined blacks). The reason is that if a rich man in, say, New Orleans (which attracted a large number of penniless Irish immigrants starting after the Great Famine) had a dangerous project (and because of the heat-humidity factor combined with tons of disease carrying mosquitoes, almost all work was potentially very dangerous to health and life), and he used the slaves he owned, he could have lost a small fortune if even 3 dozen slaves died or became permanently incapacitated. But if he had hired immigrant Irish for the work, and 5 dozen died, he would have lose nothing. He could hire 5 dozen more immigrant whites and finish the job.

No owner of black slaves, for example, would have risked losing big bucks having the slaves dig out a coal mine and then later mine the coal. Many men always die in that work; many more get crippled. If your slaves die or become crippled, you lose money. If immigrants die doing your hard, dangerous work, you hire more immigrants and don’t give a damn about safety conditions.

So much as acknowledging things like that is verboten, and has been for a very long time. And the source being protected by the unofficial censorship is much older than the existence of black slaves owned by a very few whites in the USA.

Interesting & entertaining first post.

But “Observe, Orient, Decide and Write?” OODW? What’s up with that?

A conservative congressman said he liked everything about Nixon except his foreign policy and his domestic policy.

In seriousness, he did pursue a number of conservative agenda items, it’s just that these were almost all blocked by the liberal congress or judges.

“White American interests” is essentially meaningless. There are no interests that all White Americans share that all human beings don’t also share. And there aren’t really that many interests which a majority of white Americans share.

I think it’s safe to say that all White Americans now share an interest in slowing, arresting, or reversing the browning of America. First, all available evidence indicates that a browner America will be a less functional, more balkanized, and poorer declining power with less intelligent, less competent, and less well-behaved inhabitants. All White Americans have a vested interest in this – as do all non-white Americans. All White Americans also have a discrete self-interest in not becoming a hated minority in a plurality brown America in which de jure and de facto mistreatment and other pretexts for revenge are assured.

Maybe in an 85%+ White America in the 1970s you could say that White Americans have no definite shared interests, but I don’t think you can say this today in an America quickly degenerating into an all-against-all tribal conflict for diminishing spoils.

As a self-aware Jew, I recommend you read further into Tikkun Olam. The author cited is wrong that Orthodox should be more active with Tikkun Olam. It is much more of a secular Jewish practical and worldly idea rather than what religious Jews would be dedicated too (namely God and torah.)

The origin of Tikkun Olam has a lot to do with a strange branch of Judaism that originated in the 17th century. Too long to explain, but let’s just say that without understanding the story of Sabbatai Tzvi and later Frankism, you can’t really understand what the ((Jews)) are aiming for in the modern world. It represented a sharp break with Jewish ideas that came before. Ultimately contributing to Zionism, Jewish Communism, and modern social justice warriors. It’s never mentioned in the ((media)) but it’s like the Jewish Enlightenment. A major influence on the fate of the 19th century to our day. Hard to underestimate what the failure of supposed messiah Sabbatai Tzvi/Zevi meant to Jews in the 17th century. The crisis was nearly in proportion to the Holocaust two centuries later in terms of affecting Jewish identity. This is the root of the transition of Judaism from religion to ideology. Frankist Jews or children of such are hidden in history but all over European power in important moments of the 19th and 20th century.

See Frankist “purification through transgression” to understand the origin of modern Tikkun Olam and why it us ultimately such an evil idiocy.

Modern secular Jews for the most point don’t realize their ideology is based on a religious principle of committing evil to bring about a messianic good.

I think he is more likely to go the philanthropy route. That is a much simpler, happier life than running for President today. Although if Schultz asks some consultants, they might tell him a convincing enough lie that he has a chance to win as an independent. Mike Murphy and John Weaver have bills to pay.

You make good points, and they’re hard to argue against, but I would say the term “interest” is rather meaningless without an implicit awareness of said interest. In other words, can someone be said to have an interest in something if they’re not even aware of it? Perhaps this is philosophical trivia, but I’m not sure about that.

More concretely, many white Americans have a clear short-term to medium-term self-interest in maintaining the status quo, if not worsening it. This will be true for the foreseeable future.

It’s from OODA loop. It is a bit silly. Any better suggestions?

No one claimed otherwise. But Palestinians are, on average, significantly swarthier than Jews, primarily due to the great deal of non-Semitic European ancestry most Jews have.

> Because if Jews have to go back to ancient Egypt to get the slavery metaphor

For as much as Young-Earth Creationists get made fun of for believing in a literal interpretation of Genesis, I wish more people were aware that Exodus has absolutely zero basis in history. Even very educated people think that the Hebrews built pyramids or were enslaved in Egypt in the third millennia BCE.

In reality, the Hebrews as a linguistic and cultural group only emerged in the 10th century BCE. Fifteen hundred years after the pyramids were built and when Exodus would be dated based on the Bible’s timeline. Furthermore there’s no evidence that the Hebrews were ever enslaved en masse at any point in history. In Egypt or anywhere else. The pyramids were likely built by native freeborn skilled laborers. Pharaoh Egypt never had a large slave population because it engaged in relatively little external wars of conquest.

Lol. Persians are, what, 0.05% of the US population? 0.01? Arabs aren’t more than half a percent either. And they almost all assimilate to whiteness within a generation or two anyway, at least the non-Muslim ones do.

There will be partition, after an amount of bloodletting. Wypipo will come back, but in a smaller geographic area than what we have now. I see an awful lot of CA and TX plates moving to my Whitopia, looking for “good schools” or a safe place to retire.

Did Bobby attend the game at Dodger Stadium? Or did Don’s shutout happen on the road?
Being as ’68 was the ‘Year of the Pitcher’, I assume that Drysdale’s shutout was a complete game.

By the way, Youtube has MLB’s 1965 WS Highlights between LA and MIN, narrated by Vin Scully. What’s striking is the color photography. LA’s uniforms with the pure white and royal blue are iconic (as iconic as the NY pinstripes). Dodger Stadium is truly a jewel. Hopefully it won’t be torn down anytime soon.

I did not realize that Koufax pitched and lost game 2, won game 5 (Complete Game) and THEN on two days rest, pitched game 7 (Complete Game). It’s like, Drysdale pitched game 1 (obviously due to Sandy’s abscence for Yom Kippur), but you’d think that Don would’ve pitched game 7 as he pitched game 4, but nope. There was no doubt in Alston’s mind that Sandy was going to pitch game 7 after having won game 5.

Sandy “only” struck out 10 batters in game 5.

white people stopped having children ,

From the figures you cited, white people did not stop having children.

“Jewish American interests” is essentially meaningless. There are no interests that all Jewish Americans share that all human beings don’t also share. And there aren’t really that many interests which a majority of Jewish Americans share.

Jews having a “come to Jesus” moment after 2,000 yrs.

I see what you did.

Nope. Jews are not “White Americans.”

Perhaps a better way to put it would be to substitute “European Christian Americans” for “White Americans,” if you believe that “White” includes European Christians plus Jews (btw I never hear Jews refer to themselves as “White” except in “Dear Fellow White People” screeds — it’s always “Is it good for the Jews?” not “Is it good for the Whites?”).

Jews I’ve met certainly do NOT list themselves as a subgroup of European Christian Americans. They consider themselves entirely separate.

Perhaps you’d prefer if I changed it to:

Jews, like any group, have group interests. And those interests often are not in alignment with European Christian American interests.

Simple as that.

State legislators are mandating more and more “Holocaust education” and one representative (Ted Deutsch from Florida) is trying to use civil rights anti-discrimination logic to effectively ban “anti-Semitism” (it is hard to see this getting off the ground or surviving a Supreme Court challenge).

It’s hard to see that happening with a lot of things: the overturning of the fundamental meaning of a thousands-of-years-old social institution (marriage), the idea that men and women are no different, the normalization of homosexuality, the acceptance of a small subset of weirdos who mutilate themselves and claim to be members of the opposite sex…………..

And yet all these things have happened or are happening.

“White American interests” is essentially meaningless. There are no interests that all White Americans share that all human beings don’t also share. And there aren’t really that many interests which a majority of white Americans share.

Nonsense. There are plenty of interests they share, as other posters have pointed out downthread. The have those interests even if they are not aware of them. Just as anyone of us has an interest in not dying from some threat of which we are unaware. Those interests they share that all human beings share are best defended as a group, and won’t be defended outside of being in a group. Being a member of a group is the way to defend them.

http://jewishbusinessnews.com/2018/03/07/jews-make-19-forbes-200-worlds-richest-list/

Jews are disproportionately represented on the roster of the richest business people, with 10 Jews among the top 50 (20%), and 38 (19%) Jews among first 200 world’s wealthiest.

As for your efforts, you would have better luck nailing jello to a wall. The problem is status signaling. To break it down to its simplest, not poking the tiger would mean the tiger is more powerful then you. So if you want to show how powerful you are, you gradually escalate to the most nonsensical and harmful position. You can’t stop because if you do, other people will attack you because you aren’t powerful.

A couple of points –

Most all the 67 race riots started in Jewish merchant areas dominated by pawn shops, furniture, auto lots and appliance stores featuring easy credit. See DC and Newark for examples. The exception was Detroit. Most of the Jewish merchants were also involved in low end apartment rental markets as well (AKA Slum Lords). There wasn’t a WASP, Neo Nazi or Confederate anywhere near these areas.

‘Jewish social marginalization’ was the same experienced by Irish Catholic marginalization’. The similarity was the expectation by new arrivals that previous co-ethnics would welcome and help them. For the Jews entering during 1870 through 1920 the established Jewish order in these areas dated from 1690 through 1840 and were primarily German Jews. For the Irish is was the protestant Irish that arrived as early as 1640s through 1770s. For obvious reasons, the earlier settled co-ethnics had on average at least two generations of separation or more from the recently arrived and were for all intents and purposes not pleased to be compared with their less than worthy distant relatives. In both cases the hurt and hatred these recent arrivals felt morphed into a hatred of White Anglo Saxon Protestants. Projection is a real thing.

The most noticeable Jewish behavior it that of projection of the object of hate from a Jew to a Christian white. The same can be seen in Hawaii with the Japanese projecting their behavior onto whites with respect to local Hawaiians and Samoans.

One other feature of large blocs of ethnic and racial subgroup immigration is the phenomena of second generation crazy. First generation immigrants are normally humble and hardworking. For some odd reason their sons and daughters become excessively predatory and violent towards the established majority.

Good point. White fertility is a major reason for the current demographics

And while the traditional thinking is, you know, Aren’t Jews great because they became Zionist in ’67? as a student of American Jewish history, I’m really curious why the reaction was stronger in ’67 than even in 1948.

Probably because the ’67 war was televised. Jews got to see Moshe Dayan with his eye patch dashing across the desert, ordering people around and looking quite the alpha male. It was a narcotic. Jews can be highly influenced by them pitchers. As was mentioned in Kevin MacDonald’s recent story, many Jews decided who they would vote for in the 1980 election merely by looking at the convention attendees on television.

Jews in contrast were a rich rent-seeking overclass,

Bzzt, wrong. There were a handful of rich German Jews who had a 50 year head start on the American dream, but the vast bulk of American Jews came as penniless immigrants from the Russian Empire in the great Ellis Island wave. When they got off the boat they had no money, no education and most of them started off as sweatshop labor in the NY garment industry making pennies per piece.

As time has gone on, the differential in intelligence between blacks and Jews has seen the Jews pull farther and farther away from blacks economically but this is a one or two generation phenomenon for most as Jews were lifted in the great postwar boom. The story of my wife’s family is typical – those in her generation are successful professionals, but growing up they lived modestly in a postwar tract home – their dad couldn’t go back to college after the war because he needed to feed his family which he did with a modest sales job (and pre-WWII even that modest position would have not been open to Jews) and he in turn grew up in ghetto poverty as the son of an immigrant housepainter – constantly moving because they could not pay the rent.

“Rich Jews/ Jewish bankers” (along with Jews as Bolsheviks – somehow Jews are both rich AND Bolshevik) is a favorite anti-Semitic meme going back to the Nazis and before. My grandfather in Poland was neither rich nor a Bolshevik – he was just a poor fisherman trying to scratch out a living like Tevye. And yet somehow he had to pay the price (his life) for all the supposed rich Jews and Bolshevik Jews.

Yes there are a lot of Jews on the billionaires list but the entire billionaires list is only a few hundred people and there are millions of Jews in America, most of whom are neither rich nor members of the rent seeking class. Most don’t live in dysfunctional ghetto poverty like blacks but they are just middle class folks and only a generation or two removed from poverty.

“if blacks can advocate for blackness, then Jews can advocate for Jewishness”

I am very suspicious of the idea that US elites take queues from Blacks. A better explanation is White Elites, exemplified by LBJ Nixon administrations’ inability to withdraw from Vietnam made Jews and everyone noticed the old ‘White’ elite was in a state of decay. Jews just filled a leadership void.

This process happened before, British Americans aka WASPs, completely and corruptly handled WWI and its aftermath. Not exclusively British White Americans were the new elite. So you had Catholic Al Smith running for president.

The war in Vietnam was the end of the White consensus Jews filled the gap. The war on terror will probably have the same effect on Jewish elites as people notice the people who know what they are doing are mostly Asian. I have no prediction if Jews will go down as peacefully as White, WASPS, and Yankees did or if they will go down like the Southern elites did. The Asian vs Jewish collision might be first manifesting itself in the regular accusation of Chinese American spying for China. It sort of reminds me of White America’s suspicion of Jewish spying for the Reds.

Let’s be honest, Jews really never gave a hoot about Blacks and still don’t. It was always about themselves and their interests. In this case, mobilizing Blacks against the Wasp establishment to deal Wasps the final blow and take over.

It may have been sparked there but the dynamic of 1967 Detroit is black versus Hillbillies. Then there were the Poles and other Eastern Europeans who didn’t like blacks in their neighborhoods. Go back a checkout the 1943 Detroit race riot. The 67 versions pale in comparison. It was truly a race war not a race riot. Also check out the reaction to busing in Boston and Detroit that happened somewhere around 1969. They were shooting school buses with the kids in them there. Nothing like this ever happened during the integration of southern schools in 1964.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Basin_Canal

Work commenced the following year. Yellow fever ravaged workers in the swamp in back of town, and the loss of slaves was judged too expensive; so most of the work was done by Irish immigrant laborers. The Irish workers died in great numbers, but the Company had no trouble finding more men to take their place, as shiploads of poor Irishmen arrived in New Orleans. Many were willing to risk their lives in hazardous, back-breaking work for a chance to earn $1 a day. By 1838, after an expense of $1 million, the 60-foot (18 m) wide 3.17-mile (5.10 km) long canal was complete enough to be opened to small vessels drawing 6 feet (1.8 m), with $0.375 per ton charged for passage. Over the next decade the canal was enlarged to 12 feet (3.7 m) deep, 100 feet (30 m) wide, and with shell roads alongside.

No official count was kept of the deaths of the immigrant workers; estimates ranging from 4,000 to 30,000 have been published, with most historical best guesses falling in the 8,000 to 20,000 dead range. Many were buried without a grave marker in the levee and roadway-fill beside the canal.

You know, if blacks can advocate for blackness, then Jews can advocate for Jewishness. And in this sense, the Six Day War occurring in June of 1967 was perfectly timed to capture a whole bunch of young Jews who were nationalists in their proclivities, but didn’t have a place to put it. And there they could put it in Zionism.

This is key to understanding Meir Kahane and all the Brooklyn born right wing settlers who populate the Israeli settlements in Judea & Samaria (aka the West Bank). Pre-1967 the trend among American Jews was toward total assimilation (Kahane himself went by “Mickey King” and had a Catholic girlfriend – when she found out that Kahane already had a wife and family she jumped off the Brooklyn Bridge and killed herself). Philip Roth used to say that in his entire 100% Jewish high school, not one kid wore a yarmulke – keeping your head covered was something that your bearded grandfather did (and maybe even not him) but that was all over with.

But when black nationalism got going in ’60s America (and started pushing against Jewish interests – the Jews in Brooklyn were physically being pushed out/mugged out of their neighborhoods by blacks and there was a brief experiment in NY with school decentralization where the local black controlled school boards tried to get rid of their Jewish school teachers) the lightbulb went on in the heads of some American Jews that they should follow the example of the blacks. Kahane’s “Jewish Defense League” was patterned after the Black Panthers.

He governed in part from the left with affirmative action, wage and price controls, taking us off the gold standard, the EPA. Maybe a lot of it was the spirit of the times.

Also worth noting is the capture of 1.3 million Europeans (many of whom were Irish and 2x the number of Africans brought to North America as slaves) by Barbary pirates who subsequently sold them into slavery.

Any idea what conditions those slaves lived under and how their descendants did? Those would be interesting to compare to Black slaves in the US given their thriving population 150 years later.

My impression, and that’s all it is, is that as Islam has increased its temporal power in the UK, whether by demography, or rape and bombings by its adherents, so Brits are less bothered about Muslims being mistreated in Palestine.

That’s a consequence the deal the Jews are offering the Muslims: “We’re taking Palestine. To compensate we’ll give you access to new territory in Europe and the United States.”

“The fundamental principle that no majority people–but specifically and especially white gentiles”

Except nobody forced Jewish integration on anyone. What’s the Jewish version of Brown v Board of Education, the Civil Rights Act, and the Fair Housing Act? In fact Jewish discrimination wasn’t that extensive and ended because of private social pressure.

We are simply better people than the anti-semites, and we’ve consistently won the affection of the majority of Americans.

True. Pop bids for teen girls always portray White men as dorks and dindus as badass. Look at most watched video Uptown Funk by (((Mark Ronson))). All races of men repped as coil, except White Men, who are shoeshines. Limbic manipulation of dumb, impressionable, m/c White girls, yet the most reproductively valuable demographic.

Um, when have Jews ever NOT advocated for jewishness?

I can’t tell where these blockquotes originate, but they share the assumption common to every other projection of a white minority America: that Hispanics are not, and will never be, white.

That assumption is questionable at the least. Hispanics already self-identify as white by large majorities, and at least a quarter intermarry with non-Hispanic whites. Eliminate the special treatment given to “Hispanic or Latino” ethnicity, and they’ll likely become no more a distinct group than Italian-Americans are.

You know, if blacks can advocate for blackness, and Jews can advocate for Jewishness, then whites can advocate for whiteness.

Is this to say that black slaves in general were better treated than white laboreres? What source is being protected by the censorship?

The idea is to have blacks interbreed with whites so as to weaken white identity and change the white genome.

Blacks and Jews? Blame Abe Saperstein.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abe_Saperstein

I got the impression reading up on it last year that the Detroit riot of 1967 broke out in the formerly Jewish 12th Street (?) shopping area. It seemed like kind of a touchy point, however, so the text wasn’t too clear so perhaps I got this wrong.

Baby boomer Bigelow would’ve buried that tidbit about the Detroit Riots starting in a Jew shopping area in her movie Detroit.

Bigelow is a big, beautiful Saxon type broad but she’s a coward compared to shorty firecracker Foster when it comes to dealing with the Deep State Jews who control Hollywood.

Bigelow is another one with English and German ancestry. Sailer needs to talk more about Krauts and Limeys in the USA.

All Jew talk and very little Kraut and Limey talk misses the big picture.

When they advocated for assimilation. Look at all the pre-WWII Hollywood moguls – they were very careful to disguise their Jewishness. If there were any Jewish movie stars they took non-Jewish names (Issur Danielovich becomes Kirk Douglas). Many of them married non-Jewish wives, had Christmas trees in their house and even raised their children as Christians.

There was in fact a generational shift from the “hide your Jewishness” of pre-1967 (the Holocaust was little spoken of then also, nothing like now) to the “I’m out (as Jewish) and I’m proud mentality of today – Irving Wallace’s kids change their name BACK to Wallechinsky. The Holocaust was Jews as losers, the ’67 War showed that Jews could be winners. Everyone (especially Americans) loves a winner.

In fact Jewish discrimination wasn’t that extensive and ended because of private social pressure.

It depends what you mean by “extensive” – while there was no formal Jim Crow for Jews (and in fact, as Steve has pointed out, local (not Yankee carpetbagger) Jews were even more well accepted in the South than in other regions), private discrimination in the ’20s and ’30s was quite pervasive – not just the proverbial country clubs but ordinary hotels, employment with big corporations, enrollment in universities, eligibility to be on staff at hospitals, etc. When Augusta National was founded, local Jewish industrialists were among its founding members, but later on when it became truly national (and when the great smelly Ellis Island wave lowered the public estimation of Jews) Jews were excluded – the situation of Jews in America actually deteriorated after WWI.

The situation of Jews was better than for blacks and better than it was in Europe but it was far from perfect. It didn’t just mean that a few rich Jews couldn’t join a WASP country club – it had real everyday implications for ordinary American Jews. When you went on a trip you had to be sure to book a hotel that was not restricted. My step FIL was advised to study civil engineering instead of chemical because you could practice the former privately while no big publicly traded chemical company would hire Jews. Jews were certainly able to make a life for themselves in America but certain doors were shut to them and they weren’t just the doors to the country club as Steve would have you believe.

The end of discrimination against Jew was driven in part by the civil rights movement and laws – the same laws that prohibited race discrimination also prohibited religious discrimination. My MIL was able to get a job with Yale & Towne (as a draftswoman) during WWII because Federal contracts (even then) had non-discrimination requirements – before war, Y&T, like most big Philadelphia corporations, would never have hired a Jew. The Civil Rights Act of ’64 put the last nail in the coffin of most forms of discrimination.

Also the Holocaust made anti-Semitism (and eugenics) disreputable. Before WWII, “polite” discrimination (and in the US it was mostly polite – even as discrimination was practiced it was shrouded in euphemism – hotels advertised that they were “restricted” but you were supposed to understand what “restricted” meant) was accepted as being part of the social order – not everyone agreed with it but if you practiced it, that was considered within the range of legitimate opinion. But after the war, anti-Semitism was understood as leading to the Holocaust and its practice by people in the mainstream was no longer seen as tolerable.

“Don Drysdale was 56 when he died of a heart attack at Le Centre Sheraton in Montreal, Quebec, on July 3, 1993”

As far as I know the last great side arm pitcher. He was 6ft 6in.

Nicknamed “Big D” by fans, Drysdale used brushback pitches and a sidearm fastball to intimidate batters,[3] similar to his fierce fellow Hall of Famer Bob Gibson. His 154 hit batsmen remains a modern National League record.

Drysdale was a good hitting pitcher. In 14 seasons he had 218 hits, including 29 home runs. Drysdale was occasionally used as a pinch-hitter, once during the World Series.[5]

That’s a consequence the deal the Jews are offering the Muslims: “We’re taking Palestine. To compensate we’ll give you access to new territory in Europe and the United States.”

Jews have collectively been blind and weak on mass third world immigration and flooding into America. They have no sway on this in Europe. Too many influential Chuck Schumer types are active open borders promoters to make a permanent Democrat majority.

But the Jewish – Muslim “deal” you mention is 100% hallucination. Western Europe obviously has brought in lots more Muslims than America and Jews don’t have much political pull there. Europeans have even caved on polygamous marriages and allowed multiple wife Muslim families to all clamp onto the generous social welfare teat. It would be racist – Islamophobic to do otherwise. (/sarcasm)

Jack Straw? One eighth Jewish or less.

Hard to underestimate what the failure of supposed messiah Sabbatai Tzvi/Zevi meant to Jews in the 17th century. The crisis was nearly in proportion to the Holocaust two centuries later in terms of affecting Jewish identity. This is the root of the transition of Judaism from religion to ideology.

Very, very interesting comment. Please adopt a handle and comment more often.

I wonder if the same thing is playing out in Protestant Christianity. Eschatology figured quite prominently in American Protestantism through the 20th century. I know a surprising number of people who have told me, with some sadness, that they always expected that the Lord would have returned by now. But here we still are, so Protestants now sacralize homosexuality and adopt social justice tropes in their own version of Tikkun Olam.

One of the more famous “The End Is Near” types was Hal Lindsey. He even wrote a book titled, The 1980’s: Countdown to Armageddon. He briefly moved to Israel to be in on the ground floor of the Eschaton. Hal is now 89 years old and still waiting on the Rapture.

All this writing to just hide the simple issue: Jews do what they (as in each Jew) think is best for Jews. They can and often do disagree what is best for Jews, but that doesn’t change that they will do what they think is best for their people. If it’s help black people in the 50’s and then toss them overboard in the 60’s, so be it. This is not complicated.

White people have a really hard time not thinking like White people.

True. If we count people like Senator Rubio, Ted Cruz and their children as white then America will still have a white majority population for another 50 years. Although American Blue eyed Blondes may no longer exist in the year 2100 , most of the mestizos may continue to self identify was white. The bigger concern is the African-American population. Within the next 45 years Blacks will become 20% of the population. Already the youth population of America is 15% Black.

The same can be seen in Hawaii with the Japanese projecting their behavior onto whites with respect to local Hawaiians and Samoans.

Japanese-Americans control Hawaii. Maybe it’s the heat or that Hawaii is a supposed tropical paradise, but these are the most incompetent Japanese on the planet. Japan is governed 100x more competently. Maybe the Hawaiian Japanese just don’t care because they got theirs and the rest of Hawaii can go down down the tubes. The government response to the recent volcano eruptions has been slow and pathetic compared to what is done in Iceland.

And all they elect is Democrat Reps and Senators to go to DC and 99% of the time they are of Japanese heritage. What an Island Freakshow that also spawned Hussein Obama.

Israel in the 1960’s was a David and Goliath story: tiny Israel, constantly warred upon by all the surrounding Arab countries, who were dedicated to the destruction of Israel, stood up and defended itself heroically. This was the exact opposite of the Vietnam War, to which one of course was opposed. One said, “Israel is different.”

“We are simply better people than the anti-semites, and we’ve consistently won the affection of the majority of Americans.”

We consider ourselves better people than the gentiles, and we’ve consistently used our positions of influence to shut down any dissent from the majority of Americans.

FIFY.

He appealed to everybody except Muslims, who were the bad guys then.

Nahh. What Muslims were in 1963 was invisible.

To compensate we’ll give you access to new territory in Europe

Most anti-Semites are delusional to some extent but the idea that the Jews ran the show in postwar Europe to the extent that they had the ability to grant/deny access to Muslims is ESPECIALLY delusional.

Jews had absolutely nothing to do with the decisions that led to millions of Muslims being allowed into Western Europe. None, nada, zilch. If you want to blame someone, blame Hitler and the Kaiser whose decisions led to the slaughter of millions of young European men, leading to postwar labor shortages.

“The assassination of both Kennedy’s had a great effect on the trajectory of the USA and the world in general. JFK’s resulted in the Vietnam war (National Security Memo 273).”

Wrong. JFK’s support for the assassination of President Ngo Dinh Diem resulted in large scale US involvement in the Vietnam War. Even before the deaths of Diem and JFK (within weeks of each other), the number of US military personnel had increased dramatically. From 700 on day 1 of the Kennedy administration to 17,000 in November of 1963.

“and Robert’s in Israel going nuclear.”

Wrong again. CIA and other western intelligence agencies say that Israel’s first usable nuclear device was complete in 1966 (two years before RFK was shot). Construction of the Israeli reactor at Dimona began in 1958.

Crime is extremely low in California. San Diego is the lowest crime city in the USA with more than a million people, San Jose is number two. Simi Valley is the lowest crime city over 100,000 (some years in might trade places with others).

Crime isn’t the reason people leave the state, it is taxes, cost of living, and cultural alienation. Though if you are an elderly middle class retired homeowner, taxes are lower on you than most of the USA due to Prop 13. Typical older retired boomer might have an $800,000 house and pay $750 a year in property taxes. The same house in many parts of NJ or TX they’d pay $10,000-$25,000 a year.

Jews, like any group, have group interests. And those interests often are not in alignment with White American interests.

Most taxonomies of human ethnicity consider Ashkenazi a sub group of white Euro ethnicity. Just like Russian, English, German, and Italian, are all distinct sub-ethnicities of white, Ashkenazi is a sub-ethnicity of white.

Group interests aren’t perfect. Hillary Clinton is white: specifically Dutch, English, Scottish, and Welsh. I certainly feel a closer affiliation to black Republicans than to a white Hillary Clinton or Nancy Pelosi.

Drysdale retired fairly young. He could easily have pitched another five or so more years after ’69, and perhaps as middle reliever during LA’s ’74 NL Pennant winning season.

When you had a big wave of poor Russian Jewish immigrants, sure there was discrimination. That was an issue of numbers, not antisemitism. The same applied to Irish, German, Slavic, and Italian immigrants. The fact that Harvard’s “Jewish quota” still allowed us about a 4x representation over our population share is indicative of the extent of this: not very much.

I see your family anecdotes, and respond I don’t have any at all. As in, I have never heard my family members born 1920-1950 ever complain of even the slightest discrimination.

You can accuse the Jews of many things, but political stupidity is not really one of them. If they were politically stupid then no one would fear making mild criticisms of them. “On the Political Stupidity of White People” could fill up volumes, OTOH. Then again, people would probably fear writing that too since it would contain unpleasant facts about other groups.

1967 is up there with the greatest moments in warfare. It is especially admirable for how quick and relatively clean it was. Kutuzov’s tactical retreat to Moscow, it was not. It is therefore very easy to see how 1967 captured so many people’s imaginations especially as the antithesis to the fact that the West learned all of the wrong lessons from the Holocaust.

If we are not to repeat history we must learn from it, and the twin lessons of the Holocaust are that one should not passively go into the night nor admire/respect others for doing so. Israel is well-placed among developed countries to understand this.

Perhaps we can learn a bit from them?

Not even sophistry, you’ve read the same tweets and headlines I have about how “Jews were never white” and “Dear Fellow White People.” This is easily observed and totally separate from literal skin color.

You’re welcome.

I can’t tell where these blockquotes originate,

Audacious Epigone:

http://anepigone.blogspot.com/

, but they share the assumption common to every other projection of a white minority America: that Hispanics are not, and will never be, white.

An understandable assumption. The overwhelming majority of Latinx in the USA are Mestizo:

 the median Native American ancestry for the Hispanic/Latino group is 38% 
  compared to 0.1% for the European American group (Figure 1B).  

https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2018/05/30/333609.full.pdf+html

That assumption is questionable at the least. Hispanics already self-identify as white by large majorities,

Default choice. There is no racial box for Mestizo. The more important question is: How many actually view themselves as White? I’ve never met a Mestizo who personally (i.e., in a non-census context) identifies as White.

and at least a quarter intermarry with non-Hispanic whites

But will the children think of themselves as Anglo-Whites? Or as Latinx?

. Eliminate the special treatment given to “Hispanic or Latino” ethnicity,

The chances of racial set-asides being eliminated for Latinx are somewhere between slim and none.

and they’ll likely become no more a distinct group than Italian-Americans are.

Italians are European. Latinx are Mestizo/Amerind:

Read it. He foresaw what the Nation of Islam would turn into, as well as the Black Panthers, MOVE in Philly, the LA Riots, Ferguson, etc. …. MLK had his flaws, but his church-goin’ protesters were a thousand times preferable to the militants who followed and supplanted them.

, and cultural alienation.

A huge factor.As I know from personal experience, Living in a neighborhood that is majority Latinx is very depressing.

Japanese-Americans control Hawaii. Maybe it’s the heat or that Hawaii is a supposed tropical paradise, but these are the most incompetent Japanese on the planet.

Selective immigration? Weren’t most of the Japanese who immigrated to Hawaii drawn from the bottom tiers of Japanese society?

no big publicly traded chemical company would hire Jews.

Bullshit, 2, 3, 4, 5.

before war, Y&T, like most big Philadelphia corporations, would never have hired a Jew.

Bullshit.

Well, I want to hope against all facts that it will not come, because they way I understand it to work is literally Sesame Credit for America (you are tagged to all future employers and landlords as a “registered bigot”), but there really are good reasons to doubt it will succeed, for example within the Jewish community there are more and more people who are no longer on the ’67 bandwagon.

If we count people like Senator Rubio, Ted Cruz and their children as white

Cruz and Rubio are Cubans. Cubans are not at all representative of the American Latinx population.

Although American Blue eyed Blondes may no longer exist in the year 2100 ,

Americans with blue eyes and fair hair will still exist in 2100. There will just be far fewer of them.

That last statement is true. Florence King said there was a huge turnaround in anti-Semitism among the good ol’ boys after the Six-Day War. People said things like, “Durn, them Jew-boys sure can fight!” One wanted Moshe Dayan to run for president in the US, because “that one-eyed bastid could wipe the floor with anybody!”

Funny how Sirhan managed to stand 6 feet in front of Kennedy and administer a shot in the head from 6 inches behind.

CIA role claim in Kennedy killing
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/newsnight/6169006.stm
New video and photographic evidence that puts three senior CIA operatives at the scene of Robert Kennedy’s assassination has been brought to light.

The evidence is a result of a three year investigation

The evidence was shown in a report by Shane O’Sullivan, broadcast on BBC Newsnight.

It reveals that the operatives and four unidentified associates were at the Ambassador Hotel, Los Angeles in the moments before and after the shooting on 5 June, 1968.

The CIA had no domestic jurisdiction and some of the officers were based in South-East Asia at the time, with no reason to be in Los Angeles. …..

Jews had absolutely nothing to do with the decisions that led to millions of Muslims being allowed into Western Europe. None, nada, zilch. If you want to blame someone,

That’s not true. Some of the top leadership that pushed the migration into Europe were absolutely Jewish. George Soros, lead Obama staffer Ben Rhodes who is half Jewish (half Episcopalian WASP?), and influential media figures like David Brooks or Bari Weiss, the Jewish writers at Vox, Jon Stewart have all advocated this. However, while these people may be Jewish by ancestry, their passionate tribal affiliation lies more with the political left than with Judaism. Most also side with the Arabs against Israel and oppose the premise of Israel as an ethno-state. The exceptions to that are Brooks and Weiss who have an active tribal affiliation with Judaism and stronger support for Israel.

The other side that spoke critically of this freedom of migration also features many people who happen to be Jewish like Dennis Prager, Mickey Kaus, Ilana Mercer and in France there is Alain Finkielkraut and Eric Zemmour.

I’m pro-Jewish, pro-Israel. I do see anti-Jewish sentiment on these corners of the Internet, I don’t sympathize with that, but there is one criticism I do sympathize with that is reasonable: If white Americans and white Europeans are not supposed to prefer their culture to any other culture, and they aren’t allowed to limit immigration, the same rule should apply to Jews. Most Jews mentioned above are completely consistent on this. The exception is David Brooks, Bari Weiss, and the commentarymagazine types who argue it’s rank bigotry for white people in Europe or the US to keep any type of cultural identity that excludes others, while Jews can have their ethno nation state, and can have Jewish exclusive schools, and Jewish exclusive culture, and attempt to marry other Jews to produce exclusively Jewish children.

If we had “learned the lessons” we would have put an end to “chosen-people” propaganda aimed at estalishing privileges for themselves long ago.

The oppressed become the oppressors: Post WWII Zionists used concentration camps in Palestine
https://www.sott.net/article/387034-The-oppressed-become-the-oppressors-Post-WWII-Zionists-used-concentration-camps-in-Palestine

Declassified documents have revealed that post World War II Jewish Zionists used ethnic cleansing in Palestine in the late 1940’s. Israeli soldiers imprisoned thousands of Palestinian civilians within at least 22 Zionist-run concentration and labour camps that existed from 1948 to 1955. The documents reveal some horrific information regarding the living conditions and health concerns of men, women and children who were forced into these concentration camps. This may not come as a surprise to many historians as the facts have been documented. However, historically many people who have attempted to bring these facts to light have been condemned as anti-Semitic conspiracy theorists. The release of these documents conclusively proves this (once taboo) portion of history has in fact been covered up. [1], [2], [3]. ……

Artificial mass migration as imperial policy has a long history. To illustrate this, we will cite a few historical examples….. In the nineteenth century, Imperial Belgium imported hundreds of thousands of Rwandan Tutsi workers to the Congo to staff their work colonies. This artificial migration policy of Belgian imperialism has played a major role in the context fueling the current ethnic cleansing and ongoing neo-colonial proxy wars being carried out by the US/Israeli and European powers in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where the US /Israeli Tutsi puppet regime of Paul Kagame is murdering and pillaging on behalf of Western corporations. The Wall Street Journal has ironically described Kagame’s Zionist puppet regime ‘The Israel of Africa’……

Rothschild’s “Slaughter Ships”
Coercive Engineered Migration: Zionism’s War on Europe (Part 4 of an 11 Part Series)
https://dissidentvoice.org/2016/01/rothschilds-slaughter-ships/
Austrian intelligence officials have reportedly revealed that US government agencies are paying for the transport of migrants to Europe. On August 5th, 2015 Austrian magazine Infodirekt reported:….

As time has gone on, the differential in intelligence between blacks and Jews has seen the Jews pull farther and farther away from blacks economically but this is a one or two generation phenomenon for most as Jews were lifted in the great postwar boom.

Jack, when I contrasted blacks and Jews, I wasn’t even talking specifically about America, but about their long respective histories of interactions with whites.

That anyone seriously even vaguely equates the experiences of blacks and Jews in the United States is just a pathetic joke. But there you go.

Look, everyone has the hard struggling immigrant ancestor story. You want me to trot out my potato famine fleeing great-grandparents? Yawn. Heck, anyone who is pure WASP–unless they really kept the line assiduously clean–has hundreds of immigrant ancestors some of whom almost certainly came as indentured servants–quasi slaves. Sorry, your ancestors were not “oppressed” in America because they did sweatshop labor. Life was hard for most folks–you didn’t have great skills or rich parents, you worked your ass off. The comfy life of we suburban boomers have had is not the human norm. If your ancestors didn’t like it–go back.

Again here’s the side-by-side I actually said:

Other than “minority” they could not be more polar opposites. The blacks were a poor working underclass class, kept separate by the white majority. Jews in contrast were a rich rent-seeking overclass, kept separate by their rejection of integration with the majority.

Simplified:
Blacks
— historically poor, mostly unskilled, originally slaves
— happy to integrate with whites; refused integration by whites
Jews
— historically rich, mostly skilled, neither slaves nor serfs; free to leave
— refused to integrate with whites; developed an entire ideology to keep themselves separate as a tribe

Again the reason we have all these poor Tevye style Jews by the 18th century is not because Jews were consistently on those patches of land the last 2000 years, scratching out a meager living. Rather, it’s the reverse. It’s because Jews were historically *rich*–from money lending, trading, tax-farming, skilled trades–relative to the median European and had such a large population expansion relative to their gentile neighbors, that they simply outstripped the carrying capacity of their middle-man minority “ecological niche” of those regions and the excess had to spill onto the land. (Contray to conventional wisdom today, we can’t all make a living from “financial services”–trading and rent seeking–someone’s actually gotta work.)

Simply put the Jews as somehow kinda like the blacks of Europe is just utter nonsense. An analogy so ahistorical and ridiculous, it could only thrive in the sort of environment we have today–intense propaganda and blinders strapped on tight to keep anyone from noticing and questioning.

I see your family anecdotes, and respond I don’t have any at all. As in, I have never heard my family members born 1920-1950 ever complain of even the slightest discrimination.

My father discussed his wartime experiences fairly openly (although I now know from reading other survivor accounts from the same camps that things were even worse than he told me about even though what he told me about was already pretty bad – I don’t know whether he repressed the worst of these memories himself or just didn’t want to tell me about them, but either way I understand). But I know of Holocaust survivor families where their parents never said a word to their kids. Nada, nothing, zilch. Families react differently to trauma and how many “stories from the old days” they tell their kids (not that the trauma that American Jews experienced was anything remotely comparable to the Holocaust). If you watch the Skip Gates “Finding Your Roots” shows, most of the time people know little or nothing about their family history (and what they think they know is often wrong).

1950 is casting the net too broadly. Aside from a few snooty clubs that held out until the ’70s and beyond, institutional anti-Semitism in US took a hit after WWII and another hit after the ’64 Civil Rights Act and was largely a dead letter for anyone who was born starting in the Roosevelt Administration and reached adulthood in the ’50s. There are fewer and fewer people left who are still alive and lucid enough to remember adult life before 1945. I am fortunate in that my MIL (born ’22) is still very much alive and kicking and has all her marbles and can speak lucidly about the pre-War period.

Again, as I said before, Jews in America in that period could still have a happy and prosperous life (at least until the Depression) in a sort of separate but equal world where they lived in all Jewish neighborhoods, attended all Jewish public schools, patronized mostly Jewish businesses, went to Jewish doctors, etc. (And this was not that different than the experience of say Italian or Polish Catholic immigrants at the same time). But not all doors were open to them and even doors that had previously been open were later shut or left open only a crack – maybe this was an understandable backlash due to the large # of Jews who arrived at the turn of the century but whatever the cause it was real and is historically documented regardless of whether your family members chose not to speak of it.

I think that the CIA/military/LBJ offed JFK because they thought he was a soft on communism traitor (c.f. JFK and the Unspeakable by James Douglass or various Jacob Hornberger articles) and if that were the case then they would have to take out RFK as well to keep the cover up going once he got close to being elected.

I understand now. Hitler had to murder my poor fisherman grandfather (and his wife and 1/2 his kids and their infant families) because his ancestors were rich tax farmers in 17th century Poland. It’s all clear to me know.

22 J.Ross > The “story” here is that a respectable academic

I do hope that you understand the absurdity of making comparisons to Jim Crow…..

where they lived in all Jewish neighborhoods,

Not hard to find Jews who lived in ethnically mixed neighborhoods….

attended all Jewish public schools,

Dunno. My Jewish grandfather used to talk about all the Irish and Italian kids in his High School……

patronized mostly Jewish businesses,

Lots of non-Jews patronized mostly Jewish businesses during that period….

I was simply pointing out that postwar Europe (especially Germany) was largely Judenrein so they couldn’t possibly be calling the shots. Even now, I don’t think Merkel is taking her marching orders from Bari Weiss if she even knows who Bari Weiss is.

The main motivator for letting in millions of (Muslim) Turks into Germany was not the supposed Jooish desire for open borders but the needs of German industrialists to man their factories in the postwar boom and in the absence of millions of young German men whose frozen bodies are buried on the Russian steppes. Ditto for all the Pakis in Britain, Moroccans in France, etc. You can’t blame Jon Stewart for this.

Attack on US embassy in Persia was 1979-80 12 years after the 67 Arab Israel war. The American sympathy for Israel was due to massive propaganda effort by American Jews. Remember book and movie Exodus?

Plus every public high school and college library was full of WW2 history books emphazing Jewish martyrdom during WW2.

Plus Rabbi Kahane was preparing the ground for a massive jump of Russian Jews from the Bolshevik disaster they created with endless propaganda about his Jews were sooooo abused in Russia.

If Tom Wolfe…

Who is he, Priss?

What a stupendously stupid and spiteful statement.

The assassination of both Kennedy’s had a great effect on the trajectory of the USA and the world in general. JFK’s resulted in the Vietnam war (National Security Memo 273) and Robert’s in Israel going nuclear.

Yawn.

Pat, all US Presidents have some sort of “effect” on history, and ergo assassinated or otherwise dies in office or doesn’t get elected has some sort of “effect” on history. That doesn’t make them “great leaders”.

Your two examples are frankly ridiculous. Lyndon Johnson didn’t drag us into Vietnam courtesy of the advice of all his advisors that he dragged into the White House from Southwest Texas State Teachers College. No we went into Vietnam on the advice of all of Kennedy’s “best and brightest” crew from Harvard. Vietnam was a policy delivered by Kennedy, Harvard and the Democratic party’s policy establishment. Heck, NSAM-273 that you reference was prepared by Kennedy’s people, for Kennedy. Johnson signed it days after assuming office. Citing NSAM-273 is not making your point but disproving it. This was Kennedy administration policy–cooked up by his people for him.

As for Robert Kennedy and Israel nuclearizing … please. What sort of baroque stupidity.

The Israelis developed nuclear weapons … because they work! Nukes are the big swinging dick of “don’t mess with me or else”. Why China, India, South Africa, Pakistan, the Norks, Saddam, Iran … were also interested in getting them, and a bunch of other folks (e.g. Japan) have probably done the work to be “ready” on short order.

~~~

I don’t deify prominent people just because they are of my ethnic group. Heck, swooning and slobbering all over anyone is embarassing. Much of this Kennedy stuff over the years reminds one of teeny boopers swooning over the Beatles. It’s pathetic.

Would America have been “saved” if Kennedy wasn’t assinated? … no. Was Kennedy some sort of exceptional leader with great policies to lead America? … uh … no. Mostly Kennedy had pretty ordinary establishment policies–unsurprising since his background and his team was “Eastern Establishment”. If Kennedy deviated from “what we’d otherwise have gotten”, it was probably for the worse. Bobby would have been worse, with more poorly thought out “liberalism”.

I was speaking of the interwar period, when American anti-Semitism really got going. The situation before the ’20s was different (there were no Jewish quotas for American universities then, etc. either). The Epstein patents are all from 1917 or before . Epstein could get hired by Y&T in 1917 but not in 1937. At the Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons, the percentage of Jewish students fell to 6 percent from 47 percent between 1920 and 1940.

There were always exceptions – you might try to keep Jews out of your corporation as much as possible but a few guys were just too good to turn away – these were businesses after all. But you would be careful to limit the numbers lest your company get a reputation as being a place where a lot of Jews work, which would be undesirable for your broader recruiting efforts. Maybe the Jewish quota was not set at zero but you would set it at some very low number and try to find Jews who were not too “Jewy”. When Feynman applied to Princeton grad school in 1939, the head of the dept. wrote to his buddy at MIT : “Is Feynman Jewish? We have no definite rule against Jews but have to keep their proportion in our department reasonably small because of the difficulty of placing them.” Morse wrote back that Feynman was indeed Jewish, but reassured Smyth that Feynman’s “physiognomy and manner, however, show no trace of this characteristic”.

Is “David X Klein” even Jewish? X usually stands for Xavier which is usually a Catholic name. Klein (small) is a surname found among both Jews and non-Jews.

89 AndrewR > But Palestinians are, on average, significantly swarthier than Jews

if you go to the small city of Rosh ha’Ayin and hang out with the elderly, you can find the original stock of Yemenite-Jew immigrants to Israel. They run short-statured – and dark. Like all the other Yemenites.

Their kids had no particular interest in maintaining the “tribe”. So they all married whoever.

Yemenites used to be the poster-child beloved of the jew-SJW’s of New York….. now it’s the ethiopians who get showered with extra money from America.

I don’t doubt that the ethiopian chicks are proud on their background. On the other hand, no Rosenstein ever lost money by stocking lots of hair-straightener and blonde hair-dye in his bodega in the Ethiopian neighborhood.

Go watch the youtubes of the (Hebrew) local television show, entitled “The heart is full” SJW T.Aviv ashkenazi writers and producers making nice about how loveable the ethiopians are.

please note: I got no problems with the ethiopians. They run low-IQ, and a bit criminal….. but they’re loyal to the State. Like the Filipinos, in many ways.

A little bit of hair-straightening, and the chicks are fuckable.

160 Jack D > my MIL (born ’22) is still very much alive and kicking and has all her marbles and can speak lucidly about the pre-War period

I understand you hate the Irish and are sick of the Kennedys, I understand that with a lot of the iSteve crew but having your President killed, and obviously not by a “lone nut” but as the result of a conspiracy which was deliberately whitewashed in the Warren Commission created by the succeeding Vice President, and then later that President’s brother, who most certainly would have become president, also being murdered should get every red, white and blue Yank righteous to defend his sovereignty.

Don’t let your petty animosities get in the way of a quest for the truth. If you need your history spoon fed by those on the same political aisle as yourself then try reading Roger Stone’s The Man Who Killed Kennedy: The Case Against LBJ.

Hopefully Trump will release everything that he possible can in relation to JFK’s assasination as he promised to do.

In fact Jewish discrimination wasn’t that extensive and ended because of private social pressure.

Lot, you’re argument isn’t with me. As i’ve repeatedly said, no middle man minority in the history of the world has ever been treated better than Jews have been treated by Americans.

But JackD will go chapter and verse with you on his poor put-upon tail of woe.

Or, y’know, that whole Marxist revolution thing that was happening at the time and which contemporary Jews identified with enthusiastically.

Of course they didn’t literally have gates on the ghettos in order to lock the Jews in every night like the Jews of Venice. Even on the Lower East Side, one block might be Jewish and a couple of blocks over it was Little Italy and there might be a borderline block that was somewhat mixed or shifting as immigrant groups came and went (and the local public school might draw from both sides of the line). It was not completely rigid (and yes certain trades were dominated by certain ethnic groups but even in the Hollywood movie clip they recognize that there are Irish pawnbrokers too, even if they close on Yom Kippur as a matter of professional courtesy).

But day to day (and the same is true today in Hispanic areas) you could live such a Jewish/Italian/Polish life that a lot of the old people would never even learn more than rudimentary English (if any).

You’re pretending that you don’t understand the meaning of the term. If academia worked they way you imply then what purpose would there be in hounding Finkelstein out of his job? Why would tenure exist?

Actually “Jewish delis” (many of which served non-kosher food) were, in their heyday, popular among non-Jews as well as Jews. Back in the day a lot of ethnic restaurant were found mostly in ethnic neighborhoods but people of all ethnic groups would journey to those neighborhoods to partake – you might go to Little Italy for “macaroni” (pasta), Chinatown for chop suey, etc. What is different now is that the pizza comes to you instead of you having to go to the pizza.

There is a long list of Jewish politicians in Great Britain that have been pushing for exactly this. Sure some were not Jewish. But it is undeniable they pushed for this and continue to support it.

Modern urban life has pampered British men to the point that they are so effeminate they allowed this to happen and now pimp out their daughters to “grooming gangs” and arrest those who sound the alarm. So to some extent they did it to themselves but they were pushed this way in those shell shocked post wwii years.

Don’t be silly. Nobody is claiming that Trump’s son-in-law is a person of colour. Nor his daughter…

Somehow you’ve decided that you’re smart because you take the dumbest throwaway comments from the stupidest Jews and
decide that they therefore must be true.

This is ridiculous. And pathetic.

Jack, let’s say all your sob stories are true. (And yes, Jews did suffer the cruel lash of Protestants limiting Jewish enrollment in their Protestant unis to 5x Jewish population share rather than letting them become a majority. Those nasty Prods!) So what?

In a free society, people are supposed to be … uh … free. Free to make whatever social arrangements they want. Free to associate or not with people according to their whims.

Stereotypes are–statistically–true. Jews have certain patterns of behavior (pushy, crude, loud, arrogant) that some gentile groups find “unappealing”. As Steve pointed out, the German Jews, generally found the eastern, pale-of-settlement Jews to be rude and crude … and these are their fellow Jews! Heck, certain gentile groups find other gentile groups to be “unappealing”. This is the human norm practiced by Jews, whites, Chinese, Indians, Arabs, Latins, blacks, etc. etc. Someone I get the impression JackD doesn’t knock off work and go knock back a pint with the bruthas of Philadelphia. Why not? Maybe they have some “patterns of behavior” you don’t fancy? Some ethnic stereotyping at play?

Furthermore, it’s particularly ridiculous to get this “you’re discriminating!” crap from Jews of all people–a people who specifically *rejected* integrated with their neighbors in favor of tribal loyalty and down through the centuries enforced that rejection of integration religiously. Jews complaining of exclusion is really the pot calling the kettle black.

Jews having Jewish country clubs, organizations, civil society and doing ethnic networking–Jewish solidarity!
Some gentile groups having gentile country clubs, organizations, civil society and networking–anti-Semitism!

Sorry, no one is under any moral or ethnical obligation to socialize or do business with anyone else. Least of all with Ashkenazi Jews a group whose very existence is a rejection of integration with their neighbors.

“Ditto for all the Pakis in Britain”

Utter nonsense: less than 400,000 UK servicemen died in WW2. compared to 5 million Germans.

And 220,000 Poles stayed in the UK after WW2 rather than return to Poland, together with tens of thousands of others who didn’t want to experience Soviet rule, making up for much of the shortfall.

“Don’t let your petty animosities get in the way of a quest for the truth. If you need your history spoon fed by those on the same political aisle as yourself then try reading Roger Stone’s The Man Who Killed Kennedy: The Case Against LBJ.”

Here’s a vastly better book:

Reclaiming History: The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy
by Vincent Bugliosi

I usually comment with this handle. Realized I forgot to type it in just after I clicked send.

Yes, it’s very interesting. I was not raised religious, but have taken a great interest lately and it’s very, very interesting the role religious beliefs play in today’s non-religious ideologies.

Nobody in media takes religion seriously (like it’s a role-play card game or some weird hobby for freaks) but if you do, you don’t have to be a believer of any sort, but it answers all sorts of questions about today’s social and political climate that can’t fully be explained otherwise.

When I ask liberal friends to explain their social beliefs in depth, they all come down to religious questions. The secular eschatology of all mankind holding hands at some vague point in the future when their ideology is fully implemented. The secular creation story, secular morality. They all have a not-quite-scientific resonance. But whether you believe in one true church, false Gods, or all roads leading to the same truth, the religious history of the West is full of foreshadowing of today’s ideological fights.

How is the question “How many angels dance on the head of a pin?” different than the social reckoning over “How many genders exist.” People actually think about these things. And the angels on the head of a pin is not as frivolous as it sounds. It was really a question about the nature of time, space, and matter brought up by Thomas Aquinas.

Many of the modern interpretations of foolish religious questions come from centuries of Protestants trying to discredit Catholics by making their history look bloodthirsty and intellectual pursuits ridiculous. Most people think the “Inquisition” killed millions. That’s Protestant propaganda. It was the equivalent in deaths of one September 11th taking place over the course of three and a half centuries. And mostly due to the Spanish government, not the Catholic Church.

Jewish religious history is very important to what is going on now. And pay no attention to what 99% of modern Jews say about it. They know nothing. I know I was brought up only believing a) Israel is the greatest and most important achievement of human history, and b) all the stuff Jews believed from the beginning of time until the 1850’s or so was hokum, but we ought to respect it anyway, but not believe a word of it. That’s what most Jews know. I was lucky to meet some scholarly people who could bring me deeper into the real history, of the people, and the thought.

Giraldi Goes Sailing Away T0 Where Sailer’s Going To With The Russia-Russia-Russia Obsession Of The Jews In The Media.

Long title folks.

Giraldi Blog Post titles:

Hating Russia Is a Full-Time Job

Neocons resurrect tribal memories to fan the flames

I understand Sailer’s idea that some Jews are going gaga with the Russia stuff because of real or IMAGINED ancestral difficulties.

But,

I still like the idea that the heavily Jew-dominated Democrat Party is using the accusations of Russian meddling as a pseudo-nationalist mask to cover up the fact that the Democrat Party has gone post-national and transnational.

My concept, which I probably stole from someone else on the internet, says that the Democrats are trying to sound patriotic and nationalistic when they are not. There might also be a baby boomer angle where the moron baby boomers still believe the Russians are coming to get them. These are the same baby boomer arseholes who won’t say a word in public about mass immigration, multiculturalism or Black criminality and Black misbehaviour, but they like the nostalgia of the Cold War.

Trumpy must up the tempo on his psychological warfare against the Democrat Party and their pseudo-nationalist Russia-Russia-Russia meddling horseshit. White Core Americans are finally getting the idea that the Democrats are bullshit artists who push policies that harm Whites and all Americans. Make the Democrats froth at the mouth over Russia, Trumpy! Like a crazed raccoon walking down the middle of the road. It’ll make it easier for the voters to run them over.

Now,

Most of the Republicans are scum, too, and Thursday will be a day where the immigration brawl in the GOP will start. Paul Ryan is a globalizer dirtbag who pushes mass immigration and amnesty for illegal aliens, and that slob from California, Kevin McCarthy, is just as bad on immigration.

I have referred to easily verifiable facts. You haven’t referred to facts of any kind. Whereas I refer to things that Kennedy actually did, your first link goes to a meaningless memorandum describing what he would, supposedly, like to at some indeterminate time in the future. Your second link goes to crank ravings of a French conspiracy theorist.

Towel, Thay was kangs?

Another Dad, I was in an all boys Catholic HS when JFK was assassinated and a senior at a Jesuit College when RFK was assassinated, they had been deified by the teachers and profs at both schools. However, one of the most traumatic days of my life happened in HS, when the priests assembled the student body to go to confession and then communion, the reason being the Cuban Missle Crisis. The dems drag out whatever Kennedy they can find to validate their cause but I wish they would all just go away.

I think the distinction you imagine between Jewish whites, Catholic whites, Evangelical Christian whites and so on fades to insignificance in comparison to the difference between, say, Filipinos and white people in general.

Once upon a time, back in the Old Country, in a completely white world, in which religion was of overwhelming importance, being Jewish was significant.

In the multi-racial mosaic that is modern America, to see being Jewish as separating one from other white people would be as silly as seeing one’s Polish or Italian or Irish ethnicity as making one ‘not white.’

Jews are white. As you say, simple as that.

The American sympathy for Israel was due to massive propaganda effort by American Jews.

This.

So what are you doing to increase the White birth rate Travis? And what are you doing to ensure that affirmative action will end so White children won’t be discriminated against when they grow up and apply for jobs.?

If you don’t have at least 4 White children of your own STFU.

I was simply pointing out that postwar Europe (especially Germany) was largely Judenrein so they couldn’t possibly be calling the shots.

Didn’t the United States have a rather strong influence on postwar Europe (especially Germany)? And what group has disproportionate influence in the United States?

(As an aside, there were still Jews in Berlin at the end of the war.)

What about the role of britons like Hawkins and drake in starting the Atlantic slave trade and the role of Britain in the 300 years of the Atlantic Slave trade?

Personally, I think Britian owes America massive reparations for dumping Africans in America and creating the problem that will never, never end.. America’s biggest problem is Africans in our midst; 12 percent of the population 80% of our problems forever and ever.

Most of the Jews of Poland (where most of the Jews were) were religiously devout (ranging from what today would be called “modern Orthodox” to fanatically Hasidic) and did not identify with Marxism at all, let alone enthusiastically.

Again this is some kind of strange contradiction – 1/2 my family died because they were supposed either, depending on who you ask, rich capitalists (per Another Dad) or Bolsheviks determined to overthrow the rich capitalists (per J. Ross) (when in fact they were neither) – which one were they? Either they loved capitalism too much or not enough. Which was the sin that they deserved to die for?

The famous sharpshooter Annie Oakley was born in 1860. She wasn’t a westerner she was from Ohio. She was an indentured slave in childhood.

Her father died and he mother sold her to a farm family when she was about 8. She was fed so little she never grew to normal adult size and could not have children. She was beaten and abused. She called her owners the monsters all her life.

Mother remarried when she was about 12 and bought her back. She started shouting ducks pheasants and other birds for the local butchers and was in her way to fame.

She was an indentured servant in the 1870s.

There was some form of slavery indentured servitude in Scotland that lasted well into the 1830s.

What you don’t seem to understand (even though George Washington did over 200 years ago) is that the United States doesn’t “belong” to the Protestants. Protestants, Jews, Catholics – etc. have all been here right from the beginning and have equal claim to having stolen the place from the Indians.

Here is Washington’s letter to the Jews of Newport on the occasion of his visit to the Touro Synagogue:

The citizens of the United States of America have a right to applaud themselves for having given to mankind examples of an enlarged and liberal policy—a policy worthy of imitation. All possess alike liberty of conscience and immunities of citizenship.

It is now no more that toleration is spoken of as if it were the indulgence of one class of people that another enjoyed the exercise of their inherent natural rights, for, happily, the Government of the United States, which gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance, requires only that they who live under its protection should demean themselves as good citizens in giving it on all occasions their effectual support.

Washington understood this in 1790 and yet here we are in 2018 and you still don’t get it.

“Least of all with Ashkenazi Jews a group whose very existence is a rejection of integration with their neighbors.”

My ancestry is about 15-20% Levantine Hebrew and 80-85% “old” Euro. There seems to have been plenty of embracing integration going on there.

And speaking of rejection, my German ancestors kept really good records. From 1650 to about 1930, in Prussia, Canada, and in the Midwest, they only married other Prussian Lutherans. No Poles, no Jews, no German Catholics, not even any Germans from areas west of Berlin.

Oswald was convinced that Kennedy was a crazy warmonger – another Hitler – who needed to be stopped before he provoked World War III.

This was actually the consensus opinion of Kennedy in left-wing circles at the time. It was only after his death that he became a “martyr for peace”.

“Any idea what conditions those slaves lived under and how their descendants did? Those would be interesting to compare to Black slaves in the US given their thriving population 150 years later.”

IIRC the usual fate for male slaves captured by corsairs was to be sent to the oars in a Mediterranean galley – a death sentence unless you were ransomed. So the males had no descendants to agitate for civil rights.

Domestic male slaves were routinely castrated, a procedure with a high death rate and again no offspring – so there aren’t large numbers of sub-Saharan blacks in Egypt or Turkey.

The girls (white or black) were used as servants and concubines.

The Turks were not brought to Germany until 1963. By that time all the boys born between 1930 and 1945 were between 33 and 18 years old and fully capable of filling all necessary jobs.

The Turks were brought in for the standard capitalist purpose of keeping a vast army of the unemployed around to keep wages down. They and their descendants were mostly on welfare, not gainfully employed

The shot was in Kennedy’s ear, in the side of his head not the back.

America was supposed to be a special place that granted religious freedom and equality to all citizens and not just another shitty country, even if it was the least shitty country on the list of shitty countries. It was supposed to be a reboot of European history on a clean slate (never mind those Indians). On the Great Seal it says NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM – a new order for the ages. It is an ambitious claim for an ambitious nation. If it had said “We treat religious minorities slightly less shitty than elsewhere” then it wouldn’t be the place that the Founders dreamed of – it would be Canada or Australia or something, not the defining nation of the last 2 centuries.

Again, Washington understood this even if you don’t. Lincoln too. But at certain times in American history Americans have lost sight of this. But usually we come back to our founding principles (our “better angels” as Lincoln put it) eventually.

No Brits “pimp out” their daughters to grooming gangs. But often when they went to the police they were threatened with arrest for ‘hate crime’.

Kennedy was killed by a leftist, and yet it was “rabidly far-right” Dallas that was vilified as the “city of hate” for decades after the massacre. Go figure.

No one ever calls Los Angeles a “city of hate,” even though RFK was killed by a genuine anti-Semite.

I went to that game with two buddies from school, one of whose uncles was Elroy Face, the Pirates pitching coach, whom we stayed late after the game to meet. He invited us back to the Pirates’ hotel to share a late dinner, but we had to get back because we had class the next day. They may have been staying st the Ambassador, but I’m not sure.

Anyway, when I got home an hour later my mom told me about the shooting. It and the game were the only topics of conversation at school the next day.

The next game that Drysdale pitched, against the Phillies, ended the shutout and consecutive scoreless innings streak. The streak will long be remembered for an assist by the home plate umpire in the game against the Giants, when Drysdale hit a batter in the ninth inning with the bases loaded and no outs. The umpire refused to award the batter first base because he had moved into the pitch instead of trying to avoid it. The Giants’ manager went berserk, but to no avail. Drysdale got the next three batters out without allowing a run and the streak was preserved. One of the best games I’ve ever been to.

The other memorable events associated with the streak were the several trips the home plate umpires made to the mound to search Drysdale for a foreign substance that opposing teams were accusing Drysdale of using to “load up the ball.” On several occasions they even ran their hands through his hair, which of course lead to a commercial for some men’s hair grooming product.

I understand now. Hitler had to murder my poor fisherman grandfather (and his wife and 1/2 his kids and their infant families) because his ancestors were rich tax farmers in 17th century Poland. It’s all clear to me know.

Where did he say that? Why did you go straight to hyper-emotionalising and personalising the topic? What does this have to do with the problems that Jews have caused for Europeans or the differences between them and blacks?

How did the family find out that he had been sent to that camp and had perished? Do you have details of how he died?

NPR Jews might be the most sanctimonious prissy hypocrites of the lot.

That’s no small achievement.

Your answer is tendentious & has nothing to do with OP’s assertions, which are mostly true. It is evident that there are many loony antisemites here; but, also, to deny that Jewish historical ethnocentrism is a defining reality, and that in most historical periods from, say, 8th to 19th C Jews had it better in what in now Europe than local populations, with a few exceptions (Crusades, Khmelnitsky pogroms)- it is just blindness.

Various historians have dispelled myths about eternal, unprovoked suffering & there is not much to dispute here. To refuse to acknowledge Jewish “shadow”, to use Jungian term, is, seems, a permanent trait of Jewish national consciousness.

In those days if you were too poor to care for your children they were sent to the poor house. The poor house in turn would farm these kids out to (usually farm) families where extra labor came in handy. Some treated them OK and some treated them as semi-slave labor. There were surplus orphans in the East and these would get put on trains and sent out West:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orphan_Train

The orphan trains ran until 1929.

The Catholic Church in Ireland ran laundries in Ireland where unwed mothers worked in slave labor conditions . THe last one did not close until 1996.

The Epstein patents are all from 1917 or before.

1917-1923, with two from 1910 and 1914 that are lock-related but don’t mention Y&T.

Epstein could get hired by Y&T in 1917 but not in 1937.

Just ask Abraham H Golden, 13 patents with Y&T between 1934 and 1967.

At the Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons, the percentage of Jewish students fell to 6 percent from 47 percent between 1920 and 1940.

Yentl comes to America, marries at 14 and has 8 kids, who go to medical school, marry at 33 and have 1.9.

Medical school attendance tends to be much higher among first than later-generation immigrants. East Asian medical school attendance skyrocketed in the 80’s and 90’s, and is now just as quickly collapsing in favor of South Asians.

There were always exceptions

I thought it was “no” and “never.”

you might try to keep Jews out of your corporation as much as possible but a few guys were just too good to turn away

If there’s one thing that characterizes antisemites, it’s their finely-tuned nuance.

lest your company get a reputation as being a place where a lot of Jews work, which would be undesirable for your broader recruiting efforts.

Who ever wanted to work for Goldman Sachs or Lord & Thomas?

When Feynman applied to Princeton grad school in 1939, the head of the dept. wrote to his buddy at MIT

Did they discriminate against or cause offense to him in any way?

This is an example of “people in the 1930’s say the darndest things” (especially in private letters). You have to remember that back then, Jews were a new thing, like the internet or seeing burkas on the street.

It’s the same as any bleeding heart these days is a heavy heart, thinking back on all their ignorant (no excuse!) past misdeeds, saying “illegal immigrant” or “tranny,” or (unforgivable!) laughing at Apu.

Is “David X Klein” even Jewish?

I can’t establish definitively, but this David X Klein is presumably his grandson and, well, I’ll let you be the judge.

X usually stands for Xavier which is usually a Catholic name.

“X” (just the letter) is also a common Ellis Island middle name, for obvious reasons.

Selective immigration? Weren’t most of the Japanese who immigrated to Hawaii drawn from the bottom tiers of Japanese society?

Were brought in as agricultural laborers as far as I know. But still, my opinion, are from hi IQ stock and civilized by Nippon society.

The main motivator for letting in millions of (Muslim) Turks into Germany was not the supposed Jooish desire for open borders but the needs of German industrialists to man their factories in the postwar boom

The foreigners fighting to migrate to Europe/US are doing so to improve their own lives, not to help out a US/European factory’s balance sheet. The main driver and “motivator” is the interests and living standards of the migrants. Arguing that this culture war over immigration is being fought to serve the interest of factory managers is so unreasonable it is dishonest.

Bari Weiss and Jon Stewart do not directly hold offices of political power, but they are culturally influential people that engage in political advocacy. And one of the issues that they’ve chosen to advocate for is looser restrictions on immigration to the US and Europe. I also don’t see the open border push as a particularly Jewish thing. Many leading figures, like Hillary Clinton or Nancy Pelossi are non-Jewish whites leading that political fight.

Two things: the New Deal and FDR (with Jewish supporters) starting hiving black voters away from GOP. More importantly, Jewish slavery may have been 2000 years old; or was it more recent? Serfdom. Or, closer to post-war, concentration camps and massmurder. Isn’t that more likely to lead to more Jews identifying with communist oppressor philosophy and drifting toward open support for blacks? Tortured explanations about them trying to divide and conquer versus WASP oppression when, hey, blacks were in fact discriminted against, and je s somewhat here, but massively in Germany, Italy, France, at that time quite recently. I am sure most thought they were just doing the decent thing. And many Christian agreed. Doesn’t make them all saps or cucks now.

Tour de force.

“In a free society, people are supposed to be … uh … free. Free to make whatever social arrangements they want. Free to associate or not with people according to their whims.”

Except when those whims interfere with the social arrangements of other groups, as deemed by the society at large.

“Sorry, no one is under any moral or ethnical obligation to socialize or do business with anyone else.”

On one hand, that is a true statement. On the other hand, you are conveniently leaving out the legal aspect here.

In ancient times the Nile was flooded for half the year and the Egyptian peasants had nothing to do until it subsided. There are your pyramid builders – not slaves but unemployed farmers.

The flooding would also have facilitated water transport of stones, workers and other raw materials.

So you’re saying it was Lubavitchers that took over the German government, forced an end to the war, and talked about Bolshevism across Europe. I’m kidding, obviously you’re not. But if everybody was this obtuse and emotional all the time no discussion would be possible. It’s useless to have the motive force of Nazism be mysterious perpetual bigotry unless you’re going to erase Rosa Luxembourg from history.

Simpsons and Futurama writer David X Cohen took it because there was already a David Cohen in the Screenwriter’s Guild.

I agree antisemitic dissent gets shut down in mainstream spaces these days. But it isn’t because of Jewish power, but because Nazi Germany showed the world how evil antisemites are, and what they will do if they reach positions of power. If Jews had a lot of power in America, they would have seen that their cousins in Europe had refuge here or in Mandatory Palestine.

It may also have something to do with the fact that antisemites rarely just have issues with Jews, but quite often extend their hate to our large population of Eastern and Southern European Americans.

This is wrong, though. As a proposition nation — whose proposition is the flowering of English common law tradition in the Constitution — the United States belongs to anyone who signs onto the proposition. Theoretically anybody can do this, but it definitely came from a particular cultural sphere, and anyone plugged into that would have a natural head start. It cannot belong to “all of us” or to holders of geographical claims because then you very easily displace the proposition.

True, and their story was not even in Egypt. Most likely from Yemen! Not a stitch of evidence for Egypt. Another fake!

“I agree antisemitic dissent… blah, blah, blah.”

Any examination of Jewish influence is immediately labeled “antisemitic dissent.” If you dare to question those who consider themselves superior, they’re quick to let you know that you are morally inferior. I didn’t read the rest of your schtick.

it isn’t because of Jewish power

Come on, Lot. Jewish power might not be the only factor, but are you really denying it is a significant part?!

At the Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons, the percentage of Jewish students fell to 6 percent from 47 percent between 1920 and 1940.

Yentl comes to America, marries at 14 and has 8 kids, who go to medical school, marry at 33 and have 1.9.

Medical school attendance tends to be much higher among first than later-generation immigrants. East Asian medical school attendance skyrocketed in the 80′s and 90′s, and is now just as quickly collapsing in favor of South Asians.

This would be a much more convincing explanation if the school officials at that time did not confess (in private, never publicly) that they had imposed actual quotas. For example, the dean of Cornell University Medical College said in 1940,“We limit the number of Jews admitted to each class to roughly the proportion of Jews in the population of the state.”

Occam’s Butterknife posits that this is a much more straightforward and convincing explanation than a non-existent crash in Jewish birth rates.

There’s no point in arguing with him, is there? Just, utter denial.

While Lot, et al, are whining to us White Americans of Christian Heritage about how bad his grampa had it, what I wanna know is, when are the rich Jews in America TODAY gonna start paying the medical and funeral bills and lost incomes of all the WACHs being mowed down TODAY by illegal-alien Mexican drunk drivers that their co-ethnics demanded not to be kept out?

@91 AndrewR: “Lol. Persians are, what, 0.05% of the US population? 0.01? Arabs aren’t more than half a percent either. And they almost all assimilate to whiteness within a generation or two anyway, at least the non-Muslim ones do.”

One might wonder why so many of your comments utilize utterly bizarre and inaccurate numbers and percentages to downplay the dramatic drop in the White proportion of America’s population. Arabs, Persians, and other Mohammedans, last I read, are officially about 1% of the population. I don’t trust official numbers, however, and adding in the illegals and rapid influx of rapefugees in the last few years of Obamantion’s term, I’d say 1.5% conservatively. Jews and half-Jews (and even quarter Jews, who are often Jewier than the 100% ones) are about 3%. Add in those 85-95% White Latinos who lay claim to full European ancestry (these numbers are all based on self-reported census and other surveys, to the best of my knowledge), and Whites of European ancestry are perhaps 45% (the official percent being 51.7 non-hispanic White as of 2017, minus the others I’ve already listed).

As far as “assimilation” goes (a piss-poor and overused word that means whatever the user intends at that moment), most Mohammedans remain Mohammedan and separate from the rest of America socially, culturally, and religiously. Only those Levantines who were/are Christians (primarily Lebanese and Syrian) and who generally arrived between 1880-1925 intermarried and truly assimilated, insofar as “assimilation” applies to any who arrived after the War between the States.

I am completely wrong there.
However Communists in Munich (and horror stories from Russian refugees) probably played more of a role in widespread, reasonable fears of imminent Bolshevism than the historical grievances of unrelated gentiles. One of those things makes logical (although not moral or perfectly correct) the sentiments of the day and one is an emotional appeal that amounts to shifting defamation from one party to another. As long as people are allowed in this topic to just babble — while other people are legally for forbidden to talk — the real popular consensus result will not be an authoritative belief system. Normies will see the seething revisionists and frothing high priesthood and conclude that it is a religious matter, although they will have the sense to steer clear and not (deliberately) offend people.

Actually, the term is now used in almost any fictional work where continuity plays a role: movie series, TV shows, etc.

Even very educated people think that the Hebrews built pyramids or were enslaved in Egypt in the third millennia BCE.

Well, there might not be any extra-Biblical evidence for the Exodus, but you can’t blame the Bible for the foregoing.

The Bible never says that the Hebrews built the pyramids.

Moreover, it does not say that they were enslaved in the third millennia BC. Try second millennia. Based on the Bible’s timeline, it’s usually placed either ~1400 BC or ~1200 BC.
