("The founding fathers of Kibbutz Buchenwald prepare themselves for life in `Eretz Yisrael´ by learning agriculture in little German villages") ... in only a few weeks or months - a Jewish Miracle??? - Kibbutz Buchenwald, a Kibbutz of `Jeckim´, Jews of German origin

Members of the Kibbutz (Do they look like battered survivors of any Holocaust or Shoah to you???)

"Kibbutz Buchenwald is the story of a nightmare that became a dream and a dream that became a reality. Liberated from the depths of the concentration camp at Buchenwald (while the Palestinians were never liberated from the clutches of British and Jewish imperialists!) in the spring of 1945, a group of sixteen gaunt and battered young men organized and formed Kibbutz Buchenwald, the first agricultural collective in postwar Germany designed to prepare Jews for emigration to Palestine. (Hitler's Haavarah Agreement with the Zionist Jews!) What caused a handful of survivors to take their fate into their own hands within days (???) of their liberation, at a time when most survivors were passively awaiting orders from the occupying forces? From what wellsprings did they draw the physical and emotional strength to begin life anew as Zionist pioneers in a world that had turned upside down?
Judith Baumel's moving account examines the kibbutz from its creation in Germany until the departure of the founding group for Palestine (Yes, British unlawfully occupied PALESTINE!) in the summer of 1945. She then follows the members of Kibbutz Buchenwald into Palestine, where they eventually established their own independent settlement in 1948. (With what visa and money???) This settlement exists as Kibbutz Netzer Sereni today."

Pictured from left to right are Szymon and Hana Szmulewicz; Wajsman and his bride Rozka; Moniek and his bride Dora; and Gershon and Malka Belkowski.

"Drawing from the diaries of the kibbutz's founding members, Baumel provides a detailed account of an incredible story and places the central narrative in the larger contexts of communal living, European politics after the war, and the link between European Jewry and Israeli postwar nationhood. An afterword briefly describes the later life of each of the original kibbutz members. "

"Kibbutz Buchenwald was founded in June 1945 by survivors of the Buchenwald concentration camp with the support of American army chaplain, Rabbi Herschel Schacter. However, the idea of creating a post-war socialist Zionist collective was hatched by a small group ofr men including Arthur Poznansky, Yechezkel Tydor and Eliyahu Gruenbaum and three Gottlieb brothers while they were still in concentration camp. Schacter helped requisition a farm in Eggendorf complete with animals and equipment, and the first sixteen members took possession on June 3. Kibbutz Buchenwald as founded on principles of tolerance and welcomed members from across the political spectrum. In July the Kibbutz moved to Geringshof, the site of a previous Jewish agricultural school founded in 1923 that managed to stay open until 1941 before its Jewish students were deported. At the war's end, the American military government recovered the farm and permitted it to be reopened for Jewish youth once more. Many of the group immigrated to Palestine aboard the Tel Chai refugee ship in 1946. At first absorbed by Kibbutz Afikim, the members of Kibbutz Buchenwald later split off to found a new kibbutz, Netzer Sereni. The last members of Kibbutz Buchenwald emigrated in 1949."

As Israeli girls run away to Arab villages, Israel's "Anti-Assimilation Organization" and "Pro-Jewish Identity NGO" are on the job

Israel National News reports that a young Jewish teenager fell in love with an Arab, converted to Islam, and decided to marry him, running away from home to do so. The parents, horrified, called the police, and after weeks of searching, located her.

While many parents would quite likely be concerned at a young daughter running off, there is another dimenstion to this story.
It turns out that Israel has something called the "Lehava anti-assimilation organization." The Israel News article reports that this organization was in constant contact with the family, and will now "guide the family on how to treat their daughter." The paper quotes its announcement:

“The organization will continue treating the young woman and help her return to the Jewish people. The organization welcomes the activities of the police and calls on the authorities to handle this phenomenon. We will continue to fight for the return of the daughters of Israel to the people of Israel.
The article reports that the stunned mother bemoaned the fact that “Girls here are exposed to minorities daily, on the way to school and back... It definitely can happen to anyone. My daughter was perfectly normal, full of joie de vivre, surrounded by friends. My daughter was a victim."

She went on to say:

"Unfortunately, there is no immunity to almost anyone. In my worst nightmares I never dreamed it would happen to us.�?
The article reports that a deputy mayor from a nearby village announced with concern that a growing number of Jewish girls are moving into Arab villages, a claim that the paper reports was confirmed by "Israel's pro-Jewish Identity NGO Yad L'Achim."
A related article tells of yet another organization, "The Family Lobby," which responded to the deputy mayor's report by claiming:

"The painful phenomenon of Jewish girls who cross over into Arab society is the direct result of the weakening of the family unit and the deterioration of the status of fathers in the Jewish family in recent decades – due to the activity of militant feminist women's groups.'"

An observer might be forgiven for wondering whether the phenomenon is perhaps connected to something more basic: the self-destructive nature of a colonial system built on ruthless militarism and subjugation of others, an artificially manufactured society whose much-vaunted kibbutz system involved separating children from parents and parents from children – in considerable contrast to the Middle Eastern extended-family culture it sought to displace... but that still exists next door.

KIBBUTZ BUCHENWALD ???
When right after the war a group of Holocaust survivors decide to emigrate to Israel, none of them find it strange or macabre to call their new found community Kibbutz Buchenwald. They come from Poland, Hungary, and Germany, but their homes do not exist anymore. Their common places of origin are the concentration camps they had barely survived (???): Auschwitz, Treblinka, Bergen Belsen, and Buchenwald.

The State of Israel does not even exist when they arrive in Palestine to found the kibbutzim, agricultural communes, where they can finally be free men in a free country??? (Occupied Palestine!). Many of those kibbutzim are actually already founded in the DP Camps (DP???), months before the survivors leave for Palestine. The founding fathers of Kibbutz Buchenwald prepare themselves for life in `Eretz Yisrael´ by learning agriculture in little German villages???. Proudly they hang a banner in big Hebrew letters above the farmhouse where they stayed. It said `Kibbutz Buchenwald´.

Until today Kibbutz Buchenwald has long been renamed Kibbutz Netzer Sereni (???), after a Jewish resistance fighter in the Holocaust. It still is a Kibbutz of `Jeckim´, Jews of German origin. One of last founding members in Aaron Onhaus. Everybody calls him Onni. He had lost (???) his whole family in the concentration camps (???). „ None of us could go back to our homes”, remembers Onni. “We couldn´t go back to Germany, to Poland, Ukraine, Romania, or Hungary (???). So we said: `Let´s go to Eretz Yisrael.´“???

In the park of the Kibbutz a bronze sculpture remembers history: from the ashes of the Holocaust the survivors rise towards a new life. Today Onni and his friends have made peace with Germany???. No other country besides the US has such close relations with the Jewish State, and in the place that once was `Kibbutz Buchenwald´ everybody knows that today´s Germany is not the Germany of the Holocaust anymore.

Lettre aux Juifs de constantinople (1489)


Ces deux lettres d’un intérêt capital, ont été découvertes par hasard à la bibliothèque de Salamanque (Espagne) parmi les archives de Tolède. Elles ne seront rendues publiques qu’en 1583, grâce au courage du gentilhomme Julien de Médrano.
I - LETTRE DES JUIFS D’ARLES A CEUX DE CONSTANTINOPLE :
Honorables Juifs, salut et grâce. Vous devez savoir que le roi de France, qui est de nouveau maître du pays de la Provence, nous a obligés par cri public de nous faire chrétiens ou de quitter son territoire. Et ceux d’Arles, d’Aix et de Marseille veulent prendre nos biens, menacent nos vies, ruinent nos synagogues et nous causent beaucoup d’ennuis; ce qui nous rend incertains de ce que nous devons faire pour la loi de Moïse. Voilà pourquoi nous vous prions de vouloir sagement nous mander ce que nous devons faire.
Chamor, Rabbin des juifs d’Arles, le 13 Sabath 1489.
II - RÉPONSE DES JUIFS DE CONSTANTINOPLE A CEUX D’ARLES ET DE PROVENCE :
Bien-aimés frères en Moïse, nous avons reçu votre lettre dans laquelle vous nous faites connaître les anxiétés et les infortunes que vous endurez. Nous en avons été pénétrés d’une aussi grande peine que vous mêmes. L’avis des grands Satrapes et Rabbins est le suivant :
— A ce que vous dites le roi de France vous oblige à vous faire chrétiens : faites-le, puisque vous ne pouvez faire autrement; mais que la loi de Moïse se conserve en votre coeur.
— A ce que vous dite qu’on commande de vous dépouiller de vos biens : faites vos enfants marchands, afin que, peu à peu, ils dépouillent les chrétiens des leurs.
— A ce que vous dites qu’on attente à vos vies : faites vos enfants médecins et apothicaires, afin qu’ils ôtent aux chrétiens leurs vies.
— A ce que vous dites qu’ils détruisent vos synagogues : faites vos enfants chanoines et clercs, afin qu’ils détruisent leurs églises.
— A ce que vous dites qu’on vous fait bien d’autres vexations : faites en sorte que vos enfants soient avocats et notaires, et que toujours ils se mêlent des affaires des Etats, afin que, en mettant les chrétiens sous votre joug, vous dominiez le monde, et vous puissiez vous venger d’eux. Ne vous écartez pas de cet ordre que nous vous donnons, parce que vous verrez par expérience que, d’abaissés que vous êtes, vous arriverez au faîte de la puissance.

(YUSSUF) V.S.S.V.F.F.
Prince des juifs de Constantinople, le 21 de Casleu, 1489.
Que de chemin parcouru depuis l’application de ces conseils, il y a plus de 5 siècles ! Contrairement aux Français qui ont la mémoire courte, le peuple élu, lui, n’oublie jamais rien et il ignore tout du pardon chrétien.

Not for the faint of heart

. "Famine in Ukraine was brought on to decrease the number of Ukrainians, replace the dead with people from other parts of the USSR, and thereby to kill the slightest thought of any Ukrainian independence."

- V. Danilov et al., Sovetskaia derevnia glazami OGPU_NKVD. T. 3, kn. 2. Moscow 2004. P. 572
The Holodomor, or Hunger plague, was a famine engineered by the Soviet Union as part of a series of actions, including mass executions, designed to destroy the Ukrainian nation. Census data reveal a shortfall of 11,000, 000 in the Ukrainian population by 1937. Before and during 1937 large numbers of Ukrainians would be executed in the Great Terror which, although all the Soviet Union was affected, had a specifically Ukrainian dimension.

  4. Simon, Leon. AHAD HA-AM. London: English Zionist Federation, 1927. Softcover, 12mo, 8 pages. Series: Zionist thinkers and leaders; no. 4. Simon (1881–1965), was an “English Zionist leader, Hebrew writer, and British civil servant. Born in Southampton and educated at Manchester Grammar School and Oxford, in 1904 Simon entered the service of the General Post Office, becoming director of telegraphs and telephones (1931–35) and director of the savings bank (1935–44). For his services, he was knighted in 1944. Simon received a Jewish and Hebrew education from his father, a Manchester rabbi. He was particularly influenced by Ahad Ha-Am, who settled in London in 1907. He was also a member of the group of Zionists who were influenced by Chaim Weizmann and supported his political efforts during World War I that led to the Balfour Declaration (the Hebrew version of the Declaration was written by Simon). Simon was a member of the Zionist Commission that visited Palestine in 1918 and took part in laying the cornerstone of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Later he served as chairman of the university's Executive Council (1946–49) and Board of Governors (1950–53). In 1945–46 he was a member of the Commission of Inquiry into Jewish Education in Palestine, on behalf of the British government. The only Jew on the commission, Simon objected to the conclusion that English should be the language of instruction in higher education…. Simon was a brilliant writer in both English and Hebrew. He published essays and articles in English on Zionism and Hebrew culture and literature. Some of his essays were collected in Studies in Jewish Nationalism (1920). He edited the anthology Aspects of The Hebrew Genius: Essays on Jewish Literature and Thought (1910) and wrote The Case of the Anti-Zionists: A Reply (1917) and Zionism and the Jewish Problem (1918) [sic, 1915]. Together with Leonard Stein, he edited Awakening Palestine (1923). Simon's main work in English is his translation of Ahad Ha-Am's writings, which were first published in journals and later in books (a list of translations and their editions is to be found in Goell, Bibliography, 83–84). In collaboration with J. Heller, Simon wrote a book entitled Ahad Ha-Am: Asher Ginzburg (Heb, 1955; Eng, 1960), and together with I. Pograbinski he edited the second edition of Ahad Ha-Am's letters (6 vols, 1956–60).” He lived in Israel in the 1950s and 60sand held a number of posts in the Israeli government.

  5. (Blowstein, Rachel) Mordecai Newman. THE PIONEER WOMAN [SPECIAL ISSUE] IN COMMEMORATION OF RACHEL BLOWSTEIN. [No Place], 1941. Original Wrappers. Quarto. 8, 9 pages. 32 cm. In English and Yiddish. Printed in blue ink with Yiddish and English covers, includes two photographic illustrations on each title page. The Pioneer Woman in Commemoration of Rachel Blowstein; Chalutzah and Poet of Palestine; Ten Years After her Death. This commemorative publication contains poems “My Motherland” and “Perhaps” by Rachel Blowstein; “Rachel-Her Life and Works” by Shalom Hektin; “Rachel Among Writers” by Rachel Katzenelson; “Rachel the Poetess” by E. Silberschlag; letters and reminiscences from Rachel Blowstein; and “Rachel: In Memoriam” by Mordecai Newman. Rachel (Rachel Blowstein) was born in Russia in 1890. Arriving in Palestine with her sister in 1905, she did agricultural work in Rehovot and at the girls' training farm in what is now kvutzat kinneret. It was in memory of those early pioneering days that she later composed her famous song 'Ve-Ulai' ('Perhaps'). In 1913 she went to Toulouse, France, to study agriculture. At the ourbreak of World War I she was ordered out of France and had to return to her native Russia. In 1919 she was able to go back to Palestine, but poor health prevented her from resuming the farm work she loved and she taught in a Jerusalem school. She died in Tel-Aviv in 1931 and was buried at Kvutzat Kinneret. Her early writings were in Russian but after 1920 she began to write poetry in Hebrew. An anthology of her poems, 'Shirat Rachel' was published posthumously in 1939. Already before her death, Rachel's poetry had become the common possession of the new generation in Palestine. Many of her songs have been set to music and are widely sung. Completely 20th century in her style and mood, creating pearls of beauty out of a simple life of labor and personal frustration, she has answered a deeply-felt need of a pioneering population. Today, this famous Israeli poet is known publicly simply as Rachel or Rachel the poetess. As of March 2011, Rachel Blowstein will most likely be commemorated with a portrait on an Israeli Shekel bill. This commemoration volume is not listed on OCLC or the National Library of Israel database. Subjects: Zionism. Arts, Israeli. Yizkor. Light wear to covers, with lightly bumped and lightly torn edges. Otherwise clean and fresh. Good + condition. (HOLO2-95-19) (ID #29362) $75.00.

From the Jewish Theological Seminary he received his rabbinical degree in 1910 and later a doctorate in Hebrew literature. From Columbia University he received his doctorate in philosophy. After engaging in various communal, educational, and relief activities before, during, and after World War I, he began his long association with the New York Yiddish daily, The Day, in 1922. He served as editor (1926-42), English columnist, and commentator on Jewish events. Margoshes espoused the causes both of Zionism and of Diaspora Jewry. For him the survival and growth of the Jewish people everywhere were of prime importance. The strengthening of the State of Israel, while a necessary means to achieve this objective, was for him not an end in itself. Hence, he emphasized the need for Yiddish as well as Hebrew, and the building of an American center of Judaism as well as the Israel center, both interdependent and influencing each other's development, economically, politically, and spiritually. As vice-president of the Zionist Organization of America, he participated in World Zionist congresses and served on the Zionist General Council for many years" (Liptzin, EJ). SUBJECT(S): Richard J.

  7. (Jacob Israel de Haan) Moshe Yehuda Gleicher. FUN AMSTERDAM BIZ YERUSHALAYIM. Brooklyn, N.Y.: M. Gleicher, 1978. Hardcover, 8vo, 232 pages. In Yiddish. Biography of Jacob Israel de Haan. “From Amsterdam to Jerusalem: The Story of Dr. Yaakov Yisrael De Han Z”L” With photographs. Haan (1881–1924), was a “Dutch poet and novelist, international jurist, and journalist, politically active in Palestine during the early years of the Mandate until assassinated. Born in Smilde, De Haan was the son of a cantor and the younger brother of the authoress Carry van Bruggen. Marked by a complex personality, his life was full of contradictions: extreme generosity opposing cruelty and downright meanness, a lucid rationality versus a strong inclination towards mysticism. A remarkable constancy in his life on the other hand lies in an emotional and at the same time practical sense of justice. A further complicating factor was De Haan's homosexuality...De Haan started his career as a teacher and editor of the children's page of Het Volk, the leading Dutch Socialist newspaper. Having abandoned the Jewish faith he became active in the Socialist movement. In 1904 he published the novel Pijpelijntjes, which depicted candidly and without apology the homosexual relationship between two young men. Its publication led to a scandal and to his dismissal as teacher and editor...In the meantime he began to study law and married a non-Jewish woman. A few years after his marriage he returned to the Orthodox faith and Judaism became the main theme in his poetry. At a time when the Jewish contribution to Dutch literature was significant, De Haan became its main protagonist as a self-styled Poet of the Jewish Song...During these years, as De Haan developed his Jewish poetry, he took to Zionism and became a member of the Mizrachi movement. Disappointment in his legal career, compounded by the spiritual conflict into which his marriage to a non-Jewish woman had brought him, and his growing Jewish-national consciousness persuaded him to go to Palestine to witness and take part in the Zionist experiment. He was appointed Palestinian correspondent for the leading Dutch newspaper Het Algemeen Handelsblad, receiving a handsome salary. Covering thousands of pages, he wrote perhaps the most vivid, humorous and moving chronicle of life in Palestine in the years following World War I. In January 1919 he arrived in Jerusalem an ardent Zionist, watched by the Mandatory government because of his anti-Arab utterances. He also played a part in the legal defense of Zionists who were prosecuted for defending themselves in the anti-Zionist riots in the spring of 1920. Together with Jabotinsky he became lector at the Law School that had been established by the British...Evidently, at the end of his life De Haan was planning to expose more embarrassing failings in the National Home, e. G, the embezzlement of Zionist funds by Chaim Kalvarisky, who administered a program for Arab-Jewish rapprochement. Whatever the real reasons, the highest echelons of militant Palestine Zionism had decided to eliminate him and on June 30, 1924, he was shot to death on the orders of the Haganah, the first known political assassination in the Zionist movement. The news of his death drew worldwide attention, including in the Arab countries. After the hate-campaign against De Haan, his murder deeply embarrassed the Zionist organization, but at the time it could divert suspicion to the Arabs because of the well-known fondness of the deceased for Arab boys. Only in the 1960s was the Zionist responsibility gradually revealed. The enigmas in De Haan's life can be perceived to resonate posthumously. At present he is still regarded as the champion of both Dutch homosexual liberation and international anti-Zionist Jewish Orthodoxy” (Boas & Giebels, EJ, 2007). OCLC lists 14 copies worldwide.

Maimon (1875-1962) was a leader of religious Zionism; after years of work in Eastern Europe, he settled in Israel in 1913. In Israel he helped found Mizrachi, the educational organization, and when he was expelled from Israel by the Turks during WWI, he continued to advance Mizrachi's interests in the United States. He was on the first ship – literally – back to Palestine after the war. After the State of Israel was established, Maimon briefly worked in the government; he was elected to the First Knesset. A "prolific" writer, after his retirement from government service, he devoted himself solely to literary pursuits.

Jabotinsky, Vladimir (Ze'ev; 1880–1940), was a “Zionist activist, soldier, orator, writer and poet; founder of the Jewish Legion during World War I. Jabotinsky greatly influenced a large section of the Jewish people and as head of the Betar movement was the undisputed source of inspiration to masses of Jewish youth, particularly in Eastern Europe…In Turkey's declaration of war on the Allied Powers, he foresaw at once her defeat and the inevitable dismemberment of the Ottoman Empire. It was essential, he decided, that the Zionist movement should abandon its neutral stand in order to achieve its aims in Palestine at the end of the war…The official Zionist leadership, which insisted on remaining neutral in the war, also condemned Jabotinsky's "legionist" propaganda and actually forced him to leave the Zionist Organization. The only public figures who cooperated with him were Pinhas Rutenberg, Meir Grossman, and Joseph Cowan, while Chaim Weizmann gave him discreet support. By 1916 Jabotinsky's lonely but energetic campaign had won him substantial support in Britain, but it was only after the death in June 1916 of War Minister Kitchener, who had determinedly opposed any "eastern front,” that the winds began to favor his efforts. In 1917 the British government consented to the formation of Jewish units. The first to be established was the "38th Battalion of Royal Fusiliers" under Patterson's command in England, which was joined in 1918 by the 39th (American) and 40th (Palestinian) Battalions. These were later consolidated into the "First Judean Regiment" with the menorah as its insignia…Jabotinsky himself joined the 38th Battalion as a lieutenant and was decorated for heading the first company to cross the Jordan. His book The Story of the Jewish Legion (1945), first published in Russian (1928), is a monument to this chapter in Jewish history” (Schechtman, EJ, 2007). OCLC lists 26 copies worlwide.

When Woodrow Wilson was elected president in 1912 on a platform of the New Freedom, he turned to Brandeis for counsel in translating ideas of political and social reform into the framework of legal institutions. In 1916 Wilson nominated Brandeis as a justice of the Supreme Court, precipitating a contest over confirmation in the Senate that lasted more than four months…confirmation was finally voted on June 1, 1916” (Freund in EJ 2007).

He led the opposition against Baron Edmond de Rothschild's officials and, on being expelled by them from Rishon le-Zion, settled in Gederah. In 1889 Belkind opened a private Hebrew school in Jaffa. He was accepted as a teacher at the Alliance Israelite Universelle in Jerusalem in 1892, and there published several textbooks.

Translated from the German by Avraham Kohen. Translation of Die Nationalita¨tenfrage und die Sozialdemokratie. A translation of the Austrian Socialist Otto Bauer's first book, The Nationalities Question and Social Democracy (first published 1907), an extremely influential work on the position of national minorities and the necessity for cultural-national autonomy; written specifically for the conditions of the national minorities and the need for socialism in the Austro-Hungarian empire, this work immediately impacted the debates in the Russian and Polish socialist milieu, and, especially, in the General Jewish Labor Bund and the socialist zionist milieu (rather, the debates with the Bund and socialist zionist milieu created many of the major theoretical distinctions which Bauer drew upon). Lenin extensively criticized this work, and Stalin's work on the National Question is essentially a polemic with all the major ideas put forth in Baeur's text; the debates would immensely impact the conceptions of language, autonomy, and the various ethnically based republics of the soviet union. In Palestine and Israel, the concepts put into place by Baeur were one of the major touchstones for the argument for a binational state argued by Hashomer Hatzair.

One fold-out illustration. “This ‘early Zionist tract, part polemic and part vision’ posits that only in a reconstituted autonomous homeland in the Land of Israel could the Jews be safe from anti-Semitism and be free to develop their spiritual life. In his scheme, American Jews would purchase land for settlers (Karp). There are references to American conditions. E. G. On social-exclusionary anti-Semitism and hotels, see p.15; on Reform, see p.19. The second part contains an anti-Reform polemic (KA). The folded in frontispiece contains an indictment of American Jewry for forsaking Zion. In a poem in the frontispiece, Raphael asked, incorporating a quotation from the Yom Kippur Ne'ilah liturgy, why ‘is every city built on its hilltop while the City of God [Jerusalem] is degraded to the nethermost depth’? He furthermore complained that ‘Israel loves his land [only] for the purpose of digging graves. ’ In the accompanying illustration the traditional immigrant (carrying a Torah scroll) is depicted as en route to America (the Brooklyn Bridge and Lower East Side tenements await him) and having turned his back on Zion. The artist was ‘Schwartz 14 Ann St. N. Y. ’ The addenda/ errata were set in a different type than the main text and are dated later than the imprint date. The imprint place is recorded based on KA. Raphael's manuscript at the Library of Congress.” (Goldman, Hebrew Printing in America, entry #939) “Raphael was born in Kalvarija, Lithuania, in 1856 and he studied in a Lithuanian yeshiva. He immigrated to Pittsburgh in 1871 and practiced the craft of producing fine jewelry from hair. He did not continue his formal studies in America, though, as an autodidact, he studied English, astronomy, the violin and musical composition. Raphael was an active member of Hovevei Zion and it was in his home that Pittsburgh's chapter was reactivated in 1893. The Daughters of Zion was also formed in his house by his daughter Rose and her friends. A supporter of agricultural labor, in 1894 Raphael purchased a farm in Baden (twenty-one miles outside of Pittsburgh). The foreclosure of his mortgage two year later (and ill-health?) forced him to return to Pittsburgh, where he opened a men's clothing store. Raphael contributed to the American Hebrew press and wrote on contemporary issues pertinent to the immigrant community. He attended the 1902 convention of the Federation of American Zionists and convinced the delegates to choose Pittsburgh as the site for the 1903 convention. Raphael died one month before it was convened.” (Goldman #939). Singerman 4578. Subjects: Jewish question; Nahalat avot. Jews - History. Judaism. Zionism. OCLC lists 22 copies.

He began writing for newspapers in the 1870s, particularly about science and current affairs. Though he at first held reservations concerning Zionism, after the First Zionist Congress and meeting Theodore Herzel, Sokolow supported the movement, and was soon the secretary, and then later president, of the World Zionist Organization. After each visit to Palestine, he published his impressions, and along with personal meetings in The U. S, Canada, England and elsewhere, won Zionism many supporters.

These letters of endorsement for the project of setting up Jewish agricultural villages forms the basis of this album of facsimile letters; includes detailed historical biographies of the Rabbis and the communities visited of the time.

  38. Wise, Stephen Samuel. FREE SYNAGOGUE PULPIT: SERMONS AND ADDRESSES: VOLUME IV, 1916-1917. New York: Block Pub. Co, 1917. Softcover, 152- 178 pages, 12mo, 18 cm. This volume only, but complete for 1916-1917, including much on WW I and Zionism. “Wise was born in Budapest in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the son and grandson of rabbis…. In 1900 he launched his career as the rabbi of Congregation Beth Israel in Portland, Oregon; typical of the activists of the Progressive Era, he attacked ‘many of the social and political ills of contemporary America. ’ In 1893, he was appointed assistant to Rabbi Henry S. Jacobs of the Congregation B'nai Jeshurun, New York City, and later in the same year, minister to the same congregation. In 1906, concerning another rabbinical appointment, Wise made a major break with the established Reform movement over the ‘question whether the pulpit shall be free or whether the pulpit shall not be free, and, by reason of its loss of freedom, reft of its power for good’; in 1907 he established his Free Synagogue, starting the ‘free Synagogue’ movement. Rabbi Wise was an early supporter of Zionism, and his support for, and commitment to Political Zionism was very atypical of Reform Judaism, which was historically and decidedly non-Zionist since the Pittsburgh Platform in 1885. He was a founder of the New York Federation of Zionist Societies in 1897, and led in the formation of the national Federation of American Zionists (FAZ), a forerunner of the Zionist Organization of America. At the Second Zionist Congress (Basel, 1898), he was a delegate and secretary for the English language. Wise served as honorary secretary of FAZ, in close cooperation with Theodor Herzl until the latter's death in 1904. Wise, joining U. S. Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis, Felix Frankfurter, and others laid the groundwork for a democratically elected nationwide organization of 'ardently Zionist' Jews, 'to represent Jews as a group and not as individuals'. In 1918, following national elections, this Jewish community convened the first American Jewish Congress in Philadelphia's historic Independence Hall” (Wikipedia, 2010).

First edition. “This pamphlet consists of the revised text of a Lecture recently delivered by the Author in response to an invitation to explain the objects of the League of British Jews. It is, however, published independently of the League.” (verso) “Less than a week after the Balfour Declaration was issued, Claude Montefiore and his colleagues organized a group of their sympathizers at New Court, the headquarters of the Rothschild concerns. The assembly agreed to establish a ‘League of British Jews. ’ A provisional committee was elected, office space was obtained and a campaign plan was agreed upon. In its announcement to the press, the League proclaimed its determination to combat the Zionist caveat that ‘the Jew is an alien in the land of his birth. ’ It called upon all Jewish Britons, regardless of their place of birth, to support its platform: ‘To uphold the status of British subjects professing the Jewish religion. To resist the allegation that Jews constitute a separate Political Nationality. To facilitate the settlement of Palestine of such Jews as may desire to make Palestine their home. ’ Those policies were formally adopted at the inaugural General Meeting of the League of British Jews held in London in March 1918, which was attended by over 400 members. The league vigorously maintained that Judaism was a religion, not a nationality; the attraction of Zionism to anti-Semites, and Zionism’s subordination of Judaism’s larger religious purpose.” (‘The League of British Jews: Challenging Nationalism in Behalf of Jewish Universalism’; Peter Egill Brownfeld) “Laurie Magnus (1872–1933), began his writing career mainly with studies of English poetry. In 1902 he wrote Aspects of the Jewish Question, which revealed him to be an anti-Zionist like his father. Four years later, in Religio Laici Judaici (‘The Faith of a Jewish Layman’), he again propounded the view that Judaism was a religion and not a nationality. For 14 years, from its inception in 1917 to its suspension, he edited the anti-Zionist Jewish Guardian. He was active in Jewish communal life as a warden of the West London Reform Synagogue, a member of the council of Jews' College, London, and president of the Union of Jewish Literary Societies. His most important books were Dictionary of European Literature (1926) and The Jews in the Christian Era and their Contribution to its Civilization (1929). He was also a director of Routledge, the publishers.” (EJ 2008) Subjects: Jews - Great Britain - Identity. Judaism - Great Britain - Apologetic works. League of British Jews. OCLC lists 11 copies.

The conflict between the Revisionists and labor reached its height, since the labor representatives believed that the constant incitement by the Revisionists had created the setting for Arlosoroff's assassination. It was finally decided to establish a committee of inquiry into the tragedy. A special session was devoted to the celebration of Ussishkin's 70th birthday. Sokolow was reelected president of the Zionist Organization. The representation of labor on the Executive increased and included Ben-Gurion and Moshe Shertok, who succeeded Arlosoroff as head of the Political Department.” (EJ 2007) Subjects: Zionism -- Congresses.

The delegations told the story of the disaster which has overwhelmed the Jewish people. Yet they demonstrated that in every land the movement still lives. Almost every European country was represented and some delegates were themselves leaders of the resistance movements in which Zionists played an heroic part. Two of the delegates were serving members of the Jewish Brigade Group and attended the Conference by special permission of the War Office.” (Page 3) A news report of the event describes, the organization’s president, Dr. Chaim Weizmann’s resolve and the political tenor of the conference: “The Zionists will not swerve and will not depart from the original aim of developing Palestine into a Jewish State as intended by the Balfour Declaration, Dr. Weizmann stated. He demanded that the new British Government take definite steps ‘at the present historic juncture’ to implement the Declaration's original purpose. ‘We do not claim in Palestine what belongs to others, ’ he said. ‘But we want an opportunity to create new things. Important development schemes are ready, but their execution depends on new political dispensations. ’” ("Weizmann Opens World Zionist Conference; Appeals to Britain and Allies for Jewish State.” Jewish Telegraphic Agency 2 Aug 1945.)

Original printed wrappers. 4to. 11 pages. 30cm. In German. Compact tabloid format internally, with broadsheet printed covers. Title translates as “The Curse and Inescapable Destiny of the Jews.” Written by Kurt Reiss, under the pseudonym Abraham Cohen. This Antisemitic, millenarian polemic situates itself alongside the numerous Antisemitic conspiracy theories clinging to the fringes of early Nazi propaganda, a kind of millenialist Nazi-Zionism that calls for the Jews to be returned to Palestine to bring about the second coming of Jesus. In this piece, Reiss celebrates Hitler as “the latest confirmation“ that the Jews are the “chosen people”, and sees Hitler as a “guide” and “shepherd” that will prevent the assimilation of the Jewish people and help bring them to Palestine to facilitate the final “salvation”. “Kurt [Reiss] left school at the age of 15 and developed an interest in religion. He believed that the Jews should recognize Jesus Christ as their Messiah. He also attempted to secure patents for mechanical inventions. Kurt convinced the family to emigrate to Canada. According to a family member Kurt suffered from mental illness. He was unable to work and spent his days writing notes about his daily activities and his religious ideas. His sister Lola always took care of him.” (Leo Baeck Institute) OCLC lists 3 copies worldwide. (Yeshiva Univ, National Libr. Of the Czech Republic, Natl. Libr.

Paperback. 16mo. 120 pages. 16 cm. In the series Palestine Pioneer Library number 9. Translated and edited by Meyer Levin with illustrations by Ann Neumann. When the Buchenwald concentration camp was freed by the American Army on April 11, 1945, some of the Jewish survivors formed themselves into a group with the purpose of setting themselves up as an agricultural commune, a kibbutz, in Palestine. The journal of Kibbutz Buchenwald is the collective diary that was kept by the members of this group. It contains letters, sketches, and stories in addition to dated entries, and was written in Yiddish, German, Polish, and Hebrew. It comes to us from Meyer Levin, the American novelist, who learned of its existence in Palestine and translated much of it and arranged for the translation of the rest. The book ends with the members of the Kibbutz Buchenwald having started to live and work in Palestine, where they eventually established their own independent settlement in 1948. This settlement exists as Kibbutz Netzer Sereni today. See Judith Tydor Baumel’s full length book, “Kibbutz Buchenwald: Survivors and Pioneers” (Rutgers, 1997).

First edition. 1 volume. Appendix containing 4 fold out tables with university budget information. The Hebrew University “The first university established in Israel. The establishment of an institute of higher learning in Eretz Israel was first proposed by Hermann Schapira in 1884 at the Kattowitz Conference of the Hovevei Zion, and again at the first Zionist Congress in 1897. A few years later, a group of young Zionists were inspired by Chaim Weizmann, then a teacher at the University of Geneva, to make the foundation of such an institution a primary aim of the Zionist movement. The group, which included Martin Buber and Berthold Feiwel, brought the question before the Congress of 1901, and Herzl submitted a petition to the Ottoman sultan for permission to establish a university in Jerusalem. The Congress of 1913 appointed a committee, including Weizmann and Judah L. Magnes of America, to execute the project, but the outbreak of World War I prevented action. While the war with the Turks was still being waged, Weizmann, who had come to Eretz Israel as head of the Zionist Commission after the issue of the Balfour Declaration, initiated the establishment of the university. On July 24, 1918, 12 foundation stones of the university were laid on Mount Scopus, north of the Old City of Jerusalem. This site, incomparable in beauty and impressiveness, had been acquired before the war by Isaac Goldberg from the estate of an English lawyer, Sir John Gray-Hill. The view commanded on one side the Holy City and Bethlehem, and on the other the rugged landscape of the Wilderness of Judea, the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and the Mountains of Moab. Weizmann, the only speaker at the ceremony, concluded: "Here, out of the misery and the desolation of war, is being created the first germ of a new life. … In this university we have gone beyond restoration; we are creating during the war something which is to serve as symbol of a better future. In the university the wandering soul of Israel will reach its haven.” There was an interval of seven years before any faculty of the university could be opened. The first lecture was given in 1923 by Albert Einstein on his theory of relativity, and he spoke the first sentences in Hebrew, which was to be the language of teaching. He was dedicated to the university, and had accompanied Weizmann to the United States in 1921 to apprise American Jewry of its significance. It was decided that, before undergraduate teaching was initiated, work should be in postgraduate studies and scientific research. Three tiny institutes of research were opened, in Jewish studies, chemistry, and microbiology. The university was to develop in two directions: on the one hand, it should be the center where the Hebrew tradition would be molded in its original language and in the light of general humanities; on the other, it should be a center of research in the natural and medical sciences, which would help the regeneration of the land. The former development was the work of Magnes, who settled in Jerusalem in 1923, and devoted himself to bringing the university into being. Weizmann and committees in England and the United States launched the effort for scientific research. The university was opened on April 1, 1925, by Arthur Balfour, at an impressive ceremony attended by the High Commissioner, Sir Herbert Samuel, General Allenby, Chaim Weizmann, Ch. N. Bialik, Ahad Ha-Am, and Chief Rabbi Kook” (EJ 2007) Subjects: Palestine – Education. Zionism. Hebrew University. OCLC lists 14 copies worldwide. Edgwear and light age toning.

Published at the Haaretz Press in Tel Aviv in 1938, this collection of detailed research on the situation, financing, and development of housing in Palestine, and steps for improvement and proposals to be undertaken, is an interesting period document. Undoubtedly, many of the proposals for settlements, for improved workers housing, and financial prerequisites for continued development, were engaged and undertaken over the next period of years. The Jewish Agency for Israel was a philanthropic agency founded in 1929 to help encourage settlement in Palestine, but also acted in the later 30’s and 40’s as a major broker for state formation. Assistance was given by the Jewish Agency for Israel in helping rescue those immigrating from Nazi Europe, and this assistance was much more pronounced with the situation of immigrant survivors and displaced persons after the war.

In Yiddish. Cover illustrated by S. Raskin. “From New York to Rehovot and Back”, the travel narrative and memoir of Yehoash in three volumes. “YEHOASH (pseudonym of Yehoash Solomon Bloomgarden; 1872–1927), Yiddish poet and translator. Yehoash was born in Virbalen, Lithuania, and as a boy he read maskilic literature as well as studying Torah with his father, briefly attending the yeshivah of Volozhin, only to begin a career as a Hebrew poet. At the age of 17 he took his first Hebrew poems to Warsaw, where I. L. Peretz encouraged him to continue writing Hebrew and Yiddish lyrics. The following year Yehoash immigrated to the U. S. He made no headway either as a Hebrew poet or in various callings – bookkeeping, tailoring, peddling, and Hebrew teaching. For a decade he faced severe privations until he contracted tuberculosis and went to the Denver Sanatorium for Consumptives in 1900 to recuperate. There he remained for almost ten years, maturing as a Yiddish poet, publishing his poems, ballads, fables, and translations in leading dailies, periodicals, and literary almanacs. In his early 30s, he undertook to translate the Bible into a modern Yiddish which would combine scholarly precision with simple idiomatic language, a task to which he devoted the rest of his life. While at work on this translation, he prepared, together with Charles D. Spivak, his physician and the co-founder of the sanatorium, a Yiddish dictionary, first published in 1911, which defined about 4, 000 Hebrew and Aramaic words used in Yiddish and which went through many editions as a basic reference work. Returning to New York in 1909, Yehoash had to struggle to make a living, even though his fame was worldwide and Yiddish periodicals in many lands gladly published his contributions. In January 1914, he left for Erez Israel and settled in Rehovot. He mastered classical Arabic and translated portions of the Koran and Arabian tales into Yiddish. When the Ottoman Empire entered World War I, he returned to New York and published the story of his experiences in three volumes of travel sketches, Fun New York biz Rekhovot un Tsurik (‘From New York to Rehovot and Back, ’ 1917–18; Eng. The Feet of the Messenger, 1923). His sojourn in Erez Israel as well as his knowledge of Arabic proved useful to him in his work on the translation of the Bible. Although he had published a Yiddish rendering of several biblical books including Isaiah and Job in 1910, he realized the inadequacy of this initial attempt and began anew. His more adequate rendering, starting with Genesis, appeared in installments in the New York daily Der Tog from 1922. At the time of his death only the Pentateuch translation had been published, but the rest of the biblical books were printed from his manuscripts. His version was hailed as a contribution of national significance. The translator drew upon idiomatic treasures of various Yiddish dialects, upon the Khumesh-Taytsh (the Old Yiddish, word-for-word translation of Pentateuch), vocabulary used by melammedim in Ashkenazi schools for many generations, and expressions of the Ze'enah u-Re'enah (Tsene-Rene), with its archaic patina. Yehoash was thus able to retain the rhythm and flavor of the Hebrew to a larger extent than preceding Bible translators. The two-volume edition, with parallel Hebrew and Yiddish texts, distributed in tens of thousands of copies, became a standard work for Yiddish-speaking homes throughout the world. In 1949, Mordecai Kosover edited Yehoash's notes to the Bible, which afforded an insight into the translator's many years of wrestling with the sacred text. Yehoash, who also translated Longfellow's Hiawatha and the Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyam into Yiddish, was far ahead of his time in terms of his own poetry. When the first edition of his Gezamelte Lider (‘Collected Poems’) appeared in 1907, he was widely hailed as a first-rank artist. His lyrics were reprinted in anthologies and school texts, and were translated into many languages. An English translation, Poems of Yehoash, by Isidore Goldstick, appeared in 1952, and a Hebrew version (1957) was a cooperative venture by a number of significant Hebrew writers, including Jacob Fichmann and Dov Sadan. Yehoash's two later lyric volumes (1919 and 1921) linked him with Inzikhism, the modernist trend of introspection in post-World War I Yiddish poetry, the leaders of which acclaimed him as their forerunner. Yehoash gave expression in his lyrics to his awareness of a divine force permeating the universe. He re-imagined in verse biblical and post-biblical legends, tales from medieval Jewish chronicles, and hasidic lore, versified fables from the Talmud, Aesop, La Fontaine, and Lessing, and created new fables of his own. He wrote romantic, ghostly ballads, but he also felt the spell of Peretz, his lifelong friend, and strove for classical purity and perfection in rhythm and rhyme. Yehoash also influenced American Jewish poetry in English, notably the modernist work of Louis Zukofsky.” (EJ 2007) Subjects: Yiddish literature - Palestine. Palestine -Description and travel.

Based on this solemn covenant and confident that the civilized world, having fought a war for justice and right, will insist that that covenant be carried out to end the homelessness of the Jewish people, the Jewish women of America represented by Hadassah will continue their unremitting efforts to help recreate Palestine, the Jewish National Home as a democratic Jewish Commonweath.” (Page 32) The Anglo-American Committee was formed to address the many questions and obstacles of Jewish immigration into the British Mandate of Palestine in 1946.

  105. Jewish Agency For Palestine. RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED AT 22ND WORLD ZIONIST CONGRESS. Washington D. C.; Jewish Agency For Palestine, 1946. Staple bound leaves. 4to. 7 pages. 28 cm. Mimeographed report with single-sided pages. Report of resolutions adopted by the congress including information on immigration, “denunciation of ‘unathorized bodies’,” revisionist roles with in the congress, education, and budgetary concerns. “The Congress met in Basle on Dec. 9–24, 1946, after World War II and the Nazi Holocaust, which had exterminated most of European Jewry. The yishuv had participated in the British war effort and had waged an armed struggle against White Paper restrictions. The Revisionists had returned to the Zionist Organization and were represented at the Congress. The Biltmore Program (1942) on the establishment of Palestine as a Jewish commonwealth had been approved as the program of the Zionist movement at the first international Zionist conference after the war (New York, 1945). The Anglo-American commission of inquiry (1946) had recommended, inter alia, the abolition of a number of existing restrictions and the settlement of 100, 000 Jews in Palestine. The British government had refused to accept these recommendations, and the armed resistance of the yishuv had increased. Leaders of the yishuv and the Jewish Agency had been arrested (1946). The Morrison-Grady plan for the cantonization of Palestine and its division into four districts (Jewish, Arab, Jerusalem, and Negev) had been announced. The British had proposed a Jewish-Arab conference in London to reach an agreed solution, and the release of the imprisoned Jewish leaders as a preliminary to this conference. The Congress was therefore faced with the necessity of taking a stand on both the Morrison-Grady proposal and the London Conference. Weizmann stressed the importance of the decision on the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine and the sympathy with which Zionism and the aspirations of the yishuv were regarded by President Truman and American opinion. The Congress approved the political program of the Zionist Organization "to establish a Jewish commonwealth integrated into the world democratic structure,” turned down the plan for the cantonization of Palestine, and also resolved that "in existing circumstances, the Zionist movement is unable to participate in the London Conference.” Weizmann, who was opposed to this last resolution and favored participation in the London Conference, resigned from the presidency, and for the first time in the history of the Zionist Organization the Congress failed to elect a new president.” (EJ 2007) Subjects: Zionism.

Youth oriented pamphlet regarding the biblical history of Judas Maccabeus. Described internally as “one of a series of pamphlets on Jewish History, Zionism, and the Jewish Festivals.” “Founded in 1909 Young Judaea drew its members from Jewish students. The original group was led by Emanuel Neumann. It formulated as its goals the advancement of the cause of Zionism; furthering the mental, moral, and physical development of Jewish youth; and the promotion of Jewish cultural ideas in accordance with Jewish tradition. It was affiliated with the Zionist Organization of America and published a journal, the Young Judaean, originally edited by Henrietta Szold. In 1940 it came under the jurisdiction of the American Zionist Youth Commission, a joint effort of Hadassah and the ZOA and in 1967 became the sole responsibility of Hadassah. The first settlers in Israel from the Young Judaea movement arrived during World War I, among them members of the Jewish Legion. At its peak of membership (1948) Young Judaea had over 30, 000 members, but along with other Zionist groups in the U. S. It suffered a decline in membership following the establishment of the State of Israel. Each year thousands of young people age 8–18 attend its clubs, conventions, activities, and six summer camps including Tel Yehudah, the movement's senior leadership camp in Barryville, New York. Its Year Course program, founded in 1956, brings more than 400 young people annually to Israel during a "gap year" between high school and college, for a 10-month program of study, community volunteering, and intense engagement with Israeli society. A variety of other programs involve visits to Israel for high school and college students. The Hamagshimim program is for college students up to age 30. In 1973 a group of its members founded kibbutz Keturah in the Aravah.” (EJ 2007) Subjects: Judas Maccabeus. Zionism – Youth. Young Judaea. OCLC lists 2 copies worldwide. (Natl. Libr. Israel, HUC.)

Series: Zionist pamphlets; no. 1. Simon (1881–1965), was an “English Zionist leader, Hebrew writer, and British civil servant. Born in Southampton and educated at Manchester Grammar School and Oxford, in 1904 Simon entered the service of the General Post Office, becoming director of telegraphs and telephones (1931–35) and director of the savings bank (1935–44). For his services, he was knighted in 1944. Simon received a Jewish and Hebrew education from his father, a Manchester rabbi. He was particularly influenced by Ahad Ha-Am, who settled in London in 1907. He was also a member of the group of Zionists who were influenced by Chaim Weizmann and supported his political efforts during World War I that led to the Balfour Declaration (the Hebrew version of the Declaration was written by Simon). Simon was a member of the Zionist Commission that visited Palestine in 1918 and took part in laying the cornerstone of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Later he served as chairman of the university's Executive Council (1946–49) and Board of Governors (1950–53). In 1945–46 he was a member of the Commission of Inquiry into Jewish Education in Palestine, on behalf of the British government. The only Jew on the commission, Simon objected to the conclusion that English should be the language of instruction in higher education…. Simon was a brilliant writer in both English and Hebrew. He published essays and articles in English on Zionism and Hebrew culture and literature. Some of his essays were collected in Studies in Jewish Nationalism (1920). He edited the anthology Aspects of The Hebrew Genius: Essays on Jewish Literature and Thought (1910) and wrote The Case of the Anti-Zionists: A Reply (1917) and Zionism and the Jewish Problem (1918) [sic, 1915]. Together with Leonard Stein, he edited Awakening Palestine (1923). Simon's main work in English is his translation of Ahad Ha-Am's writings, which were first published in journals and later in books (a list of translations and their editions is to be found in Goell, Bibliography, 83–84). In collaboration with J. Heller, Simon wrote a book entitled Ahad Ha-Am: Asher Ginzburg (Heb, 1955; Eng, 1960), and together with I. Pograbinski he edited the second edition of Ahad Ha-Am's letters (6 vols, 1956–60).” He lived in Israel in the 1950s and 60s and held a number of posts in the Israeli government.

  140. Brieger, Lothar; Ephraim Moses Lilien. E. M. Lilien, Eine Künstlerische Entwicklung Um Die Jahrhundertwende. Berlin-Wien; Verlag Benjamin Harz, 1922. Original Cloth. 4to. 260 pages. 30 cm. First edition. In German. Cloth with decorative boards and beautiful decorative gilt lettering on spine. This copy is one of 100 luxury editions printed (unnumbered). With 228 black and white plates. Title translates as: “E. M. Lilies, Artistic Development from Beginning of the Century.” This volume constitutes an important documentation and description of the work of Jewish graphic artist and illustrator with his bibliography in the appendix. Ephraim Moses Lilien (1874–1925), “Austrian illustrator and printmaker. Lilien was born in Drohobycz, Galicia. He studied art in Cracow for a short time, but lack of funds forced him to return home. He eventually earned enough as a sign painter to go to the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. In 1895 he worked in Munich as a cartoonist, where he obtained his first commission for the magazine Jugend; three years later he moved to Berlin, where he soon became known as a book illustrator. Lilien was the first artist to become involved in the Zionist movement. He took an active part in three consecutive Zionist Congresses and was a member of the Democratic Fraction, which stressed the need to foster Jewish culture. In 1900 there was published Juda, a volume of ballads on Old Testament themes by a pro-Zionist German poet, Boerries Freiherr von Muenchhausen, illustrated by Lilien. This was followed by Lieder des Ghetto in which social adversity and the rejection of poor Jews were reflected. In 1902 he was one of the founders of the Berlin publishing house, Juedischer Verlag, which he served not only as an illustrator but also as editor, manager, and publicity agent. Between 1908 and 1912 three volumes, of its planned ten, illustrated books of the Bible appeared. He collaborated closely with Theodor Herzl; Lilien's photograph of the Zionist leader on the Rhine bridge, his Herzl portraits, and his decorations for the Golden Book of the Jewish National Fund became familiar to Zionists all over the world. In 1905 Lilien, along with Boris Schatz and others, was a member of the committee formed to establish the Bezalel School of Art in Jerusalem. He taught there for some months in the following year and revisited Palestine three times, on the last occasion as a lieutenant in the Austro-Hungarian army during World War I. In 1908 Lilien turned from book illustration to etching. Many of his etchings are views of Austria and Hungary, while others record his impressions of Palestine, Damascus, and Beirut. His drawings, executed mainly in India ink, show a crisp, elegant line and a strong contrast between black and white areas. Lilien combined biblical and traditional Jewish themes with the motifs and methods of Art Nouveau. His art expressed Jewish hopes and desires in the era of Zionism that looked beyond the exile.” (2007 Encyclopedia Judaica) Subjects: Jewish art and symbolism -- Germany.

  145. Wolfsberg, Oskar. PROFESSOR HAYIM AHARON (HERMAN) STRUCK. Jerusalem; Department Of Youth Affairs World Zionist Organization, 1946. Original Boards. 16mo. 75 pages. 17 cm. Illustrated. First edition. [4] leaves of black and white portraits. In Hebrew. Commemorative biography of Herman Struck, including four reproductions of his portrait etchings. “Struck, born into an Orthodox Berlin family, studied at the Berlin Academy under Max Koner, where Hans Meyer introduced him to the art of etching. Struck joined the Zionist movement at an early age. In 1903, after several study trips throughout Europe, he visited Palestine and, on his way back to Germany, stopped in Vienna and met Herzl. This meeting inspired the famous portrait etching of the Zionist leader. During World War I Struck served with the German army in Lithuania. There he came in contact with East European Jews and was deeply impressed by their way of life. Skizzen aus Litauen, Weissrussland und Kurland (1916) and Das ostjuedische Antlitz (1920) reflect this experience. In 1923 he moved to Palestine and settled in Haifa. Struck's favorite technique was copper etching and its related processes although he did lithographs as well. His early work, done in pure etching, was usually signed with his Hebrew name, Hayyim Aharon ben David. From 1902 he mixed etching with vernis mou and aquatint. A master of his craft and an excellent teacher, Struck taught graphic techniques to such fellow artists as Chagall, Liebermann, Israels, and Corinth. His book Die Kunst des Radierens (19235), a popular guidebook for artists and connoisseurs, provides technical explanations and practical instruction. Struck excelled as a portraitist. Among his sitters were Ibsen, Nietzsche, Freud, and Einstein. He also did landscapes, Jewish types and scenes from Jewish life as well as many ex libris. Struck, who remained an Orthodox Jew, participated in Jewish public life and attended several Zionist congresses as one of the leaders of the Mizrachi Party. He was a member of the London Society of Painters, Etchers and Engravers.” (EJ 2007) Subjects: Biography – Herman Struck OCLC lists 18 copies worldwide.

  147. Charlotte Elizabeth. JUDAH’S LION. New York; Charles Scribner, 1852. Cloth, Publishers cloth. 16mo. 335, [1] pages. 17 cm. Second Scribner printing. This novel is considered to be the first English language ‘Zionist Novel’ (it predates George Eliot’s ‘Daniel Deronda’ by thirty years); the story concerns the return of an English Jew (Alick) to the Holy Land; it binds together English and Jewish history. This was the last novel the author wrote. Charlotte Elizabeth Tonna (1790-1846) wrote on the plight of English factory workers, was well known in her time for her novels and her Orange-Protestant essays and poems, was passionate about gardening, a pioneer of deaf education, and also wrote children’s stories. In her later years she defended the rights of Judaism, and in her last three years was a close friend of Moses Montefiore, owing to her fundraising on behalf of the Jews of Mogador in 1844 (she raised the most money of anyone for the Jewish community in the besieged Moroccan coastal city), her public protest against the policies of Tsar Nicholas I towards Jews, and her 1844 letter to the Bishop of Jerusalem, entitled ‘Israel’s Ordinances. ’ “As Tonna’s health deteriorated rapidly, the Montefiores became devoted friends. When she set out on her final journey to Ramsgate from London, it was Montefiore who bade her farewell at the train station and handed her a basket of grapes.” (Pg. 215; ‘Moses Montefiore: Jewish Liberator, Imperial Hero’; by Abigail Green). Her work, "Days of Old, ’ by Charlotte Elizabeth (Mrs. Tonner)” was part of the sixth volume published by the American Jewish Publication Society in 1847 (Jewish Miscellany no. VI; which also includes two works by Isaac Leeser, “Rachel Levi, A Tale” and “The Jews and Their Religion”), two years after the society was founded by Isaac Leeser (EJ 1906; American Jewish Publication Society).

Charlotte Elizabeth Tonna (1790-1846) wrote on the plight of English factory workers, was well known in her time for her novels and her Orange-Protestant essays and poems, was passionate about gardening, a pioneer of deaf education, and also wrote children’s stories. In her later years she defended the rights of Judaism, and in her last three years was a close friend of Moses Montefiore, owing to her fundraising on behalf of the Jews of Mogador in 1844 (she raised the most money of anyone for the Jewish community in the besieged Moroccan coastal city), her public protest against the policies of Tsar Nicholas I towards Jews, and her 1844 letter to the Bishop of Jerusalem, entitled ‘Israel’s Ordinances.’ “As Tonna’s health deteriorated rapidly, the Montefiores became devoted friends. When she set out on her final journey to Ramsgate from London, it was Montefiore who bade her farewell at the train station and handed her a basket of grapes.“ (Pg. 215; ‘Moses Montefiore: Jewish Liberator, Imperial Hero’; by Abigail Green). Her work, "Days of Old,’ by Charlotte Elizabeth (Mrs. Tonner)” was part of the sixth volume published by the American Jewish Publication Society in 1847 (Jewish Miscellany no. VI; which also includes two works by Isaac Leeser, “Rachel Levi, A Tale” and “The Jews and Their Religion”), two years after the society was founded by Isaac Leeser (EJ 1906; American Jewish Publication Society).

  149. Lamdan, Yitshaq (Isaac). MASADA: PO’EMA. Tel-Aviv: Hedim, 1927. Hardcover, 8vo, 86 pages. 1st edition. In Hebrew. OCLC lists 8 copies of the first edition worldwide (Danish Union Cat, JTSA, UC-Berkeley, UCLA, Northwestern, HUC, Brandeis, Texas-Austin). Lamdan (1899-1954) was a “Hebrew poet and editor. Born in Mlinov, Ukraine, Lamdan received a traditional and secular education. During World War I he was cut off from his family and wandered through southern Russia with his brother, who was later killed in a pogrom. These grim experiences made Lamdan rally to the Communist cause and he volunteered for the Red Army at the outbreak of the Russian Revolution. Disillusionment, however, soon set in because as a Jew he could not feel at home in the revolutionary movement. He left the army and returned to Mlinov, which had been annexed to Poland. There he became a teacher at the local Hebrew school and published his first poem in Ha-Shilo’ah. Immigrating to Erez Israel in 1920, he spent his first years as a halutz, building roads and working on farms. His poetry, now imbued with a Chalutz spirit that grew out of his experience, was published in various literary journals in Erez Israel and aroused great interest since it reflected the hopes and despair of the Third Aliyah and also the struggles and inner conflicts of the individual Chalutz. He later gave up physical labor and devoted himself exclusively to literary work, from 1934 until his death publishing and editing his own literary monthly Gilyonot. He was a member of the central committee of the Hebrew Writers Association for many years. Lamdan’s magnum opus, Massadah [this work], an epic poem in blank verse of six cantos, comprising 35 poems, established his reputation. The poem reflects the spirit of the young pioneers of the 1920s who had left behind them not only the memory of the brutal senseless murders of defenseless Jews, but also their shattered illusions about the possibility of establishing a free, revolutionary society in Eastern Europe. Massadah, the last fortress which continued to hold out against the Romans even after the fall of Jerusalem in 70 C. E, in Lamdan’s poem symbolizes Erez Israel, the last stronghold of the destroyed Eastern European Jewish communities. The voice throughout the poem is the “I” of the poet who embodies both the horror experienced by his generation and its vision for a new future. In the first canto the poet, standing in the midst of the ruins of his home, at the height of the Russian Revolution, receives a message about Massadah: “face of the adverse fate of generations” the sons of Massadah have thrust out their “breasts in revolt and roared ‘Enough! ’” He sets out for the Promised Land in order to join them. His path to Massadah is obstructed by three friends who symbolize the various anti-Zionist or Diaspora-oriented ideologies and who try to turn him back. By an overwhelming act of will, the speaker frees himself from his friends and scales the barriers blocking access to Israel's stronghold. The second canto is a series of short poems in which the different Jewish refugees who came to Massadah describe their tragic experiences. Cantos three, four, and five are movements from joyful hope to despair. Night, “in which the air is heavy with blood,” transforms into a time for kindling fires, dancing, and the renewal of faith. Night thus becomes a symbol of strength and hope while day is a time of despair and disillusionment. The fortress itself weeps for her listless sons. The ecstasy of the early movement is passed, the verve of pioneering among the weaker is spent and they fall to the wayside. Fewer and fewer of those imbued with the spirit of freedom throng to Massadah, and peddlers, longing to engage in commerce, increase. Not only the fires but also the “flames of revolt” brought to Massadah as “holy Sabbath candles in the twilight of the worlds" flicker faintly, yet they are not extinguished. There are always those who stand guard over Massadah watching "every cloud rising somewhere over the horizon.” In the sixth canto the poet turns to these sturdy souls, calling out to them that their sacrifice is not in vain and that all roads trodden by the Jewish people lead to Massadah, none lead away. The poet’s “I” of the first canto, with its clear biographical references, later merges into the collective consciousness of the Jewish people, but even in Canto I it is not intrinsically individual. A symbolic poem of moods and situations, rather than heroes and plot, Massadah is rich in expressionistic images and rings with the cadence of biblical rhetoric” (Katznelson in EJ, 2007).

In Hebrew. With preface by Reuven Brainin, published by Kadimah, printed at the Grayzel Press. “The first Zionist novel in Hebrew (Kressel, 2: 520), it originally appeared under a pen name in Ha-Shahar (Vol. 11) and was published in book form as Nakam Berit (Vienna: Georg Brag, 5644, [1884]). The American edition, which was issued as no. 2 in the Sifriyah Amamit Series, was an important edition because ‘most of the readers of [Ha-Shahar] in Russia never saw this work. It was restricted from public circulation because of censorshiop. ’ (KA).” (Goldman, Hebrew Printing in America, #472) “Perez Smolenskin (1840 or 1842–1885), Hebrew novelist, editor, and publicist. A leading exponent of the Haskalah in Eastern Europe and an early advocate of Jewish nationalism, Smolenskin is best known for the important Hebrew monthly Ha-Shachar which he founded in 1868, and edited – 12 volumes in all – until his death. […] In great measure, Smolenskin laid the foundations for the Zionist movement which gradually took shape in the following two decades. At the same time he anticipated the concept of a spiritual center, which was later to be argued so forcibly by Ahad Ha-Am. Smolenskin's percipience may be discerned in the repeated warnings expressed, in both his articles and stories, that the pogroms in Russia and the antisemitism in Germany were no temporary aberrations, but merely the first manifestations of worse horrors to come. He foresaw danger threatening the entire people, and maintained that only Eretz Israel could offer a real refuge, where all the tribes of the dispersion could be gathered into a single nation. Nekam Berit (in Ha-Shachar, 11 [1883]), a story describing the return of an assimilated youth to his people following the Russian pogroms, remains a veritable testament to Smolenskin's nationalism.” Subjects: Hebrew novels – Zionism – Russia.

Famous Photo of Buchenwald survivors

By Carolyn Yeager – Last updated on May 22, 2013

The following photo analysis is indebted to the two blogs that appeared on Scrapbookpages Blog on March 2nd and March 25, 2010. They can be found at: Scrapbookpages Blog / Famous Photo of Buchenwald survivors and  Scrapbookpages Blog / Famous Photo of Buchenwald survivors revisited. I am also indebted to Winston Smith Ministry of Truth website for the New York Times Magazine May 6, 1945 photo captures.

This famous photo of the Buchenwald survivors is said to have been first published in the New York Times on May 6, 1945 with the caption “Crowded Bunks in the Prison Camp at Buchenwald”. We were always told it looked like this:

Prison Camp 01
However, the actual picture in the May 6, 1945 New York Times looked like this:
Where is the standing man? Not there. I have written about this here.
Things to notice: Besides the missing standing man, we can also see in the above picture that the last two vertical posts are missing the part below the bottom horizontal sleeping shelf.  In other words, the “feet” of the posts, the part that touches the floor, are not there. (This has been noticed and remarked on by Eric Hunt) It begins with the post that is at the end of where figures are seen  in the bunks. The standing man covered up this anomaly – without him, the rest of the bunks receding further into the distance are seen to be completely empty. These are just some of the questions surrounding this piece of propaganda.
The entire page looked like this:

The photograph is said to have been taken inside Block #56 by Private H. Miller of the Civil Affairs Branch of the U.S. Army Signal Corps on April 16, 1945, five days after the Buchenwald camp was liberated (1) by a division of the US Third Army on April 11, 1945. None of the men were identified at that time. It was supposed to represent a typical chance encounter by the photographer in the liberated camp.
However, I have discovered and written about other serious anomalies in this photograph here, here, here and here, indicating that it is anything but a casual encounter with men in a barracks as it appeared in the final version of this photo. It is a major propaganda effort, a composite-photo of yet unknown extent of tampering, but it’s clear that figures have been added into the bunks that were not originally there and many people are misidentified.

Above, you see a traveling exhibit of huge, larger than life size photographs from the National Socialist camps, including Buchenwald, being shown in St. Louis, MO in summer 1945; it was then taken to Washington, DC. The names of the liberated prisoners in the picture were still unknown, with no one asking to know who they were.
NOTE: It’s important to realize that all supposedly known persons in this photo are self-identified, except for the standing man.

Prison Camp 02
Elie Wiesel identifies himself, leading  others to do so

At some later date (we don’t know exactly when), Elie Wiesel, who was 16 years old on April 16, 1945, said that he was the face shown inside the red circle.(2) In October 1983 (when the campaign to get Wiesel a Nobel Prize began) this picture was published in the same high circulation Sunday New York Times Magazine in an article titled “Bearing Witness: The Life and Work of Elie Wiesel,” with this caption:
“On April 11, 1945, American troops liberated the concentration camp’s survivors, including Elie, who later identified himself as the man circled in the photo.”(3)
The exact “later” time has never been pinned down. Once Elie Wiesel identified himself in the famous picture, however, other decided they were in it too. Mel Mermelstein recalled how the picture was taken (4) in his book By Bread Alone, his biographical account of a legal battle with the Institute for Historical Review. He claims to be the face with eyes-only showing in the far upper right corner.
Miklos/Nikolaus Grüner has identified himself as the 16-year-old prisoner in the lower left corner. He is the only one who actually looks his age in that picture and he also resembles the man he is today, as seen here in 2009 holding a Swedish newspaper.

Gruner Photo

According to Scrapbookpages , an October 2008 news article published on the Sun Times news Group website , since removed, reported that Paul Argiewicz identified himself as the man whose face is shown in the circle in the photo below. He stated he was was not quite 15 years old when the photo was taken and had been in Nazi concentrations camps for 5 years!

Argiewicz Photo

Argiewicz says he lied about his age during the “selection for the gas chamber” at Birkenau, claiming that he was 18 years old and was experienced as an electrician so that he would be selected for work, when he was actually only 11 years old and believed he would have been sent to the “gas chamber.” Argiewicz says he could speak fluent German because his mother was from Bavaria. (How could an 11-year-old pass for 18?)
The photo below shows Pawel Argiewicz as he looked in 1946 when his picture was taken for a German driver’s license. He is obviously not the same man as the older one in the famous photo.

Photo Compare
The two faces compared side by side.

Below is Paul Argiewicz in a photo taken March 2009. There is a clear resemblance between him and the face in the driver’s license photo. However, the man in these two photos looks nothing like the man in the photo taken in Block #56 at Buchenwald. Conclusion: Argiewicz is not in the famous photo. Too bad, Pawel, but you’re outed.

Other prisoners mis-identified

Other former prisoners who have been identified can be seen here. Simon Toncman (standing), Helman Leefsma, and Max Hamburger were all from The Netherlands, and had been sent to Buchenwald after they had been captured while working with the Dutch resistance. Strangely (compared to the others who claim to be in this photo), Simon Toncman never talked about being in this picture, according to the photo caption on Flickr – maybe because he wasn’t!
The other two are falsely identified. Leefsma is said to be born in 1924, which makes him 21 years old in 1945. But we can see that he is balding and clearly an older man, possibly even in his 40′s. Max Hamburger is self-identified, but the figure he says is himself is a poorly disguised version of the man 3rd from the left in the 2nd row. I have clearly demonstrated this here and here. Hamburger does not claim to be the man in the 2nd row, but specifically the one in the bottom row.

 

Naftali Furst, also self-identified as the man circled at left, who is  5th from the left  in the 3rd row, is not in this picture either, in spite of the fact he was in the children’s barracks in Buchenwald and was photographed at liberation. He has been exposed here.

                               
     Same man?
I’m also questioning whether the two heads circled in the picture at right, who are  on the far left in rows two and three, are the same person.  They strike me as so similar that I wonder if two shots of the same guy were added to the photo later to make the “crowded bunks” look more crowded? Why would they both be looking to the right instead of at the photographer, as the others were? What would cause them both to hide their face? The sleeping man in the second row could be the same guy.
This famous photograph was most likely elaborately staged and then “added to” as thought necessary. In any case, it is anything but a casual encounter by a liberator-photographer of the actual conditions in the camp on April 16, 1945. It is continuing war propaganda.

The orphans of Buchenwald

We look now at a photo taken on April 27, 1945—eleven days after the famous photo was taken—of Buchenwald orphans marching out of the camp with their caretakers to new lodgings in the former SS barracks. The youths and children in Buchenwald (why were they even there rather than eliminated?) had been housed in Barracks #66 in the Buchenwald “Small Camp.”  Barracks #56 (for adults) was also in the “Small Camp”, which was a special quarantine section for prisoners, mostly Jews, who had recently arrived from other camps, such as Auschwitz-Birkenau.


In the photo above, the boy in front of the tall boy in the left column of boys, third from the front,  (circled in red) has been identified as Elie Wiesel by Prof. Kenneth Waltzer on his Michigan State University website (now taken down). Waltzer teaches German History and directs the Jewish Studies Program at MSU. He has been writing a book for the past 6 years about the orphan boys at Buchenwald. Do the faces below, both purporting to be Elie Wiesel, look like the same person, 11 days apart? No way. Plus, could the man in the barracks be a 16-year old?
Above: man in Buchenwald barracks #56, April 16 — compared to boy in marching group, April 27.
At left  is a picture of Elie Wiesel at age 15, taken before his deportation. Neither of the other two pictures above claiming to be of Elie Wiesel resemble this one at all. Check the shape of the mouth and the height of the forehead. The man in the barracks also has a receding hairline.

In addition to all these problems, Elie wrote in his book Night (and also in his 1995 memoir All Rivers Run to the Sea) that he became sick with food poisoning three days after the Buchenwald camp was liberated on April 11, 1945 and was in the hospital for two weeks. That means that it’s highly unlikely he could be in the photo of the orphans above, only one day after leaving the hospital. And he absolutely could not be in the photo of Block 56 at the top of this page, taken on April 16, unless he’s lying about being in the hospital.

In the book “The Children of Buchenwald” by Judith Hemmendinger and Robert Krell, there are the stories of 31 of the 904 orphan boys at Buchenwald, including the story of Elie Wiesel in Chapter 11.  On page 113 of this book, it is mentioned that Block 66 was the barrack for the orphan boys at Buchenwald.

Jewish professor Ken Waltzer wrote, regarding the orphans at Buchenwald: “Among the older boys was Eliezer Wiesel from Sighet, Rumania, who was protected in block 66 with hundreds of others.” Waltzer also wrote in Harper’s Magazine, Dec. 31, 2008, that “Margaret Bourke White photographed [the 904 orphan boys] as did hundreds of visiting American soldiers.” Why, then, do we not see more photographs of these boys in the camp, and especially Elie Wiesel among them? Or anyone who resembles Elie Wiesel?

Miklos Grüner and Elie Wiesel were both orphans (although there is no record of Elie’s father at either Auschwitz or Buchenwald) who should have been in Block 66, the orphan’s barracks, so how did they get in a photo taken in the adult barrack, Block 56? (5)

Grüner, even though his father died at Auschwitz leaving him orphaned (6), was not sent to France with the others, but to a clinic in Switzerland because he was found to be suffering from tuberculosis. Some of the inmates in the famous photo appear to be sick, while others look healthy and of normal weight.
This suggests strongly that the photo was staged. As already mentioned, this picture was not taken on the day of liberation, but 5 days later. The photographers were setting up pictures that complemented the propaganda that was being prepared for the world. Possibly some sick prisoners were brought in to Barracks 56 to give the appearance that the general population of the camp was starving.
Below is another Buchenwald liberation photo taken on April 14, 1945, two days before the famous photo.
full camp
It shows a barrack full of Buchenwald survivors who appear to be in very good health and are warmly dressed, too. They are fully dressed while in the famous photo the sick men are shirtless to expose their bony frames. The photographer has packed the men above into this barracks to give an impression of overcrowding. Or maybe just to get as many in one picture as possible for souvenir purposes? At any rate, this is a strange comparison with Barrack 56.

Summing up
It is clear from this analysis that
A.  Elie Wiesel has lied about being in this photograph.
B.  Several others have also lied about being in this photograph.
C.  Authorities and ‘historians’ have accepted the identity of many of the persons in this photo without any investigation – simply on someone’s say-so.
D.  Only two people resemble who they say they are and that is Nikolaus Grüner (lower left)  and Mel Mermelstein (upper right).
E.  There are so many anomalies and unanswered questions about this photo that it must be considered 100% post-war United States “Holocaust” propaganda ordered by Eisenhower’s U.S. Army  intelligence branch.
F.  This photo show the level of skill in photo-manipulation that existed in 1945.
Footnotes:
  • Actually, it was ready and waiting to be turned over to the United States military authorities whenever they arrived.
  • The highly regarded British ‘historian’ Martin Gilbert doesn’t mention Wiesel or Mermelstein as being in the picture in The Macmillan Atlas of the Holocaust, published by him in 1982. He writes of it, “The photograph, taken on the day of the liberation of Dachau, shows some of the survivors of death marches and evacuation trains …” :-)
  • Samuel G. Freedman, “Bearing Witness: The Life and Work of Elie Wiesel,” NYT, October 23, 1983.
  • The July 26, 1985 Billings Gazette published an Associated Press photo showing Mermelstein holding the famous photo with the caption: “Mermelstein poses with a photograph showing himself on a bunk in the Auschwitz concentration camp.”
  • In his book Stolen Identity, Grüner gives an questionable explanation on page 28. He writes that as the inmates of Block 66 were being marched toward the gate (before liberation), he faked an emergency need to relieve himself and ran to the first barrack he could reach, which turned out to be #56. There he laid down in a bunk where he remained. No way to verify this, but Elie Wiesel gives no explanation at all for why he was there. Of course, since he says he was gravely ill in the hospital at the time this picture was taken, he could not be in two places at once.
  • He had an older brother and a sister who survived the camps, with whom he was put in contact after liberation. Both moved to Malmo , Sweden . (Stolen Identity, p. 29.)

Auschwitz, Cows and Bigots in Northfield, MN

"He who is not angry when there is just cause for anger is immoral. Why? Because anger looks to the good of justice. And if you can live amid injustice without anger, you are immoral as well as unjust." Aquinas

British soccer team at Auschwitz

by Jim Fetzer

Among the latest absurdities from Northfield, MN, an associate dean, Louis Newman, a professor of political science, Laurence Cooper, and Alan Rubenstein have co-authored an editorial in The Carletonian, the student newspaper of Carleton College, in which they assert that, while I claim to be a professor emeritus a UMD, the university denies it; a self-righteous woman, [name deleted], has declared that I am “not a credible source” because I am insulting the memory of the 6,000,000 Jews who died in the Holocaust; and a local attorney, David Ludescher, has offered to debate me on Sandy Hook, but refuses to read any of my (now more than 33) articles about it because they were published in Veterans Today!
All this in spite of the fact that it would have been effortless to verify that I am not only a professor emeritus at the University of Minnesota Duluth but that I am a Distinguished McKnight University Professor Emeritus, which is the second highest honor that the University of Minnesota can bestow, as Kevin Krein observed in his article in Northfield News. The woman who claims I am insulting the Holocaust–and the parents of the children who died at Sandy Hook–simply takes for granted that she is right and I am wrong about both (with no proof whatsoever); and, as its readers well-know, Veterans Today is the internet powerhouse devoted to covert actions and “false flag” attacks and may be the most credible source.
Contented Cow poll in Northfield, MN
As though that were not enough, a poll in the Northfield News as to whether I should even be allowed to speak has received support from close to half of those who have participated so far, where I regard this poll as an index of bigotry in Northfield, MN.
And the bigots have won, because Norman Butler, the proprietor who invited me to speak, has just released a press announcement that he is canceling Cow Talks because “Our livelihood is threatened, Our staff harassed, Our regulars worried.” Apparently, freedom of speech and freedom of inquiry are not values of Carleton College or of the Northfield community, even though they stand in opposition to the United Nations:

“Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.” ARTICLE 19. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on December 10, 1948, in Paris.

But of course the United Nations was not anticipating the role of bigotry in a small community in Minnesota. As I have previously observed, I was not surprised that there would those who don’t want to hear what I have to say, not because they are opposing falsehoods but because they are suppressing unwanted truths. The “official account”–which clams that 6,000,000 Jews died in gas chambers using Zykon B–cannot be sustained. Research based on the laws of biochemistry and of materials science has falsified it. And no one died at Sandy Hook. We even have the FEMA manual for the rehearsal on the 13th and going LIVE on the 14th. But God forbid that anyone there should actually study the evidence, since I published it in Veterans Today.

Some good has come of it

A columnist, Jon Tevlin, published about it in “Northfield pub puts free speech to the test”, The Minneapolis Star Tribune (21 January 2015), where he published my response to the claim that I am an “anti-Semite” with an explanation of my take on the Holocaust, which I have laid out explicitly in “The Holocaust Narrative: Politics trumps Science”, here in Veterans Today:
But on his website, Fetzer says, “my research on the Holocaust narrative suggests that it is not only untrue but provably false and not remotely scientifically sustainable.”
Fetzer denies he is an anti-Semite. He suggested I describe his skepticism of the Holocaust like this (his words): “Fetzer argues that, if the inmates had been gassed using Zyklon B, then their bodies would have turned pink and the walls of the gas chambers would have turned blue. But we have no reports of pink bodies and the only walls that are blue are those used for delousing, which means the official narrative cannot possibly be correct.”
But when it came to Sandy Hook, Tevlin was not equally open-minded. I explained to him that, in collaboration with three other professors (and a former Florida State Trooper, school principal and nationally-recognized school safety expert), we had established (1) that the school had been closed since 2008; (2) that there was no evacuation (because there were no students to evacuate); (3) that the “iconic” Shannon Hicks’ photograph had been staged; and (4) that we had even discovered the FEMA manual for the event, with a rehearsal on the 13th and going LIVE on the 14th. That was apparently too much for him, where he wrote:
During our chat on the Sandy Hook shootings, I stopped Fetzer to tell him I had cousins living near the town, that they attended the funerals of slain children and their photo at the funeral appeared in several newspapers.
“Funerals are easy to stage,” Fetzer said.
And of course they are easy to fake. They were closed-casket and those in attendance did not display the kinds of grief and emotion one would expect had they been there to mourn the death of a child taken in a bloody massacre. Egad! We even have a copy of the death certificate for his purported son, Noah, provided to Kelley Watt in response to her request to see it, which turns out to be a fabrication! I imagine that Jon Tevlin is unfamiliar with the legal maxim, “Fraud vitiates everything!”, where, should any material aspect of a case be determined to be fraudulent, the entire case is thereby vitiated and rendered null and void. Instead of actually looking at the evidence, he took his cousins’ word for it–and I have it all on tape! A more enlightened contribution, however, has come from Marshall Armstrong.
Norman Butler
Norman Butler likes conspiracy theories. If you’ve got an idea about how something happened that’s different from the accepted idea, he’ll likely listen. It’s for this reason that Butler scheduled James Fetzer, a philosopher of science and conspiracy theorist (Wikipedia) to speak at some of the upcoming “Cow Talks” at “The Contented Cow,” a British style pub that Norman owns in downtown Northfield, Minnesota. “I wanted people to hear an alternate idea,” Butler told me on Jan. 20.
“The Cow talks are an activity that folks can take part in, in the winter,” he said. “Politics and a Pint” was another such group that Norman started for people to specifically talk politics. The Cow Talks are going to be talks and debates on virtually any subject, usually politically motivated, as long as the presenters have some expertise in the area they are speaking on. The first one was to be a debate between Alan Rubenstein, a Northfield resident and Zionist supporter, and Bill McGrath, also a Northfielder, and Palestinian supporter.

The idea for this debate came from a letter to the editor that Rubenstein wrote to the Northfield News saying: “As the director of Northfield’s only Jewish Center, I would like to help coordinate a discussion about Israel in our town that does not take such a radical stance.(sic)” Butler felt that a reasonable debate would be the answer and invited Rubenstein to join. The debate was to take place on January 15th, at 7:30 p.m.. But about a week before that, Rubenstein heard that James Fetzer was scheduled to speak at The Cow some time in February. He let Norman know that unless James Fetzer was canceled, he (Rubenstein) would not participate in the debate and would “take his business elsewhere.” This, dear readers, is where the fun begins. Butler let Rubenstein know that he would in fact, not be canceling the debate and would instead allow the entire hour to be devoted to Bill McGrath who would talk about the history of Palestine and Israel. Rubenstein was “furious,” as Butler recalls and insisted that he cancel the debate. Again, Norman told him he wouldn’t do that.
So Alan Rubenstein started sending out emails. He sent them to friends and family, he sent them to college faculty, (Northfield is home to Carleton and St. Olaf colleges), and he sent them to churches. Denouncing Butler and the Contented Cow, the emails contend that James Fetzer is anti-semitic and his ideas are “noxious.”

Now you might be thinking, “what about free speech.” In a letter that Rubenstein sent to me, he has this to say: “I want to make my own views clear about the free speech aspect of this: Norman Butler has free speech. James Fetzer has free speech. No one is suggesting that they don’t have a right to do what they are doing. But they are exercising their right indecently; And we have rights as well – including the right to speak freely to Norman and his wife Diane, letting them know this is disgraceful… and the right to change where we spend our dollars.”

According to Alan Rubenstein’s own words, Norman and Diane, (co-owners of the Cow) and James Fetzer and are “acting indecently” and “disgraceful” because he doesn’t agree with them. He also states, “we have rights as well-including (sic) the right to change where we spend our dollars.” He uses the word “we,” which in this case means people that he has convinced to take his side and yet in an email he sent to me he stated: “For now, I will say this: I am not organizing a boycott of the Cow.” Hmmm, okay, we’ll just take your word for that, Alan.

For the most part, Bill McGrath, the Palestinian supporter who was to debate Rubenstein, wishes that Rubenstein had not dropped out of the debate. I suggested to Bill that if you played in a famous rock band and were scheduled to play at the Target Center, it wouldn’t make sense to pull out of the concert when you found out that the Target Center was going to feature a rival band sometime in the near future. Wouldn’t you want to make sure that your music was heard and remembered, knowing that your rival will most certainly be playing theirs? Wouldn’t Mr. Rubenstein have an interest in getting his word and opinions out, knowing that a detractor would be coming soon?
Unless he doesn’t feel as strongly about his topic as his words and actions up to this point suggest. Unless maybe he felt he might lose the debate and needed a way out of it and Mr. Fetzer was a convenient excuse.

But these are questions I can’t ask him because he’s clammed up. The Northfield News, the Minneapolis Star and Tribune and I have been trying to reach him for interviews. But he’s not talking.
Hmmm, start trouble for a local establishment, get a lot of people pissed off and then disappear. Well alright then.
When Butler started getting all these emails from friends of Alan Rubenstein, he forwarded some of them to James Fetzer.
Norman told me that he felt that Fetzer was better equipped to deal with the emails than he was. Sending them to Fetzer also let him know what he might be in for when he comes to speak in Northfield.
Fetzer posted some of these emails on a website that he writes for, along with the senders’ names and email addresses. You can read Fetzer’s column here. Unfortunately the friends of Mr Rubenstein started getting “ominous, threatening notes.” When the posting of people’s addresses became an issue Mr Fetzer deleted them.
Now from reading this you might think that controversial figures do not come to speak in Northfield. And you would be wrong.
Ann Coulter a conservative social and political commentator, writer, syndicated columnist, and lawyer (Wikipedia) known for making outlandish statements and claims, spoke at St Olaf College in 1995.
Bill Maher, a comedian and talk show host known for his sarcastic attitude, political satire and sociopolitical commentary (Wikipedia) came to Northfield last year with a plan to oust Congressman John Kline from office. The house was sold out.
Michael Shermer, science writer, historian of science, founder of The Skeptics Society, and Editor in Chief of Skeptic magazine (Wikipedia), with allegations of sexual abuse against him (but no legal trouble as yet) spoke at Carleton’s first convocation address of 2015 on Friday, Jan. 9.
And from the public? Not a peep. No emails, no boycotts, no protests. So why then the uproar over Norman Butler and the Cow?

This story has unfolded like a television melodrama, all due to the efforts of one Alan Rubenstein who has since faded away and will not talk to news sources about it. So you start the fire but when it gets too hot instead of putting it out, you run away? How then do you expect people to take what you say seriously?

The best news to come out of all this is that it is a very small minority that has taken what Rubenstein says to heart. The controversy is already showing signs of blowing over.
Bill McGrath gave an hour long talk about the history of Palestine and Israel, (you can view it here).
James Fetzer will speak at the Cow in February just as he has planned to and I can tell you this much: Before all this began I would probably have gone to hear Mr. Fetzer speak because stuff like conspiracy theories interest me. But now because of all the controversy started by Alan Rubenstein, I wouldn’t miss it if I were dead.










The Cow SignAn Email from Alan Rubenstein

01/25/2015

If you have read the post above titled, “The Cow Conspiracy” as 140 people have so far today, you may remember that I tried and failed to get some comments from Alan Rubenstein on this matter. This evening I and a few others received an email from him. In the interest of clarity from all involved, I am doing as Alan suggests and printing the email here.
Dear All,
Norman’s email might have created some confusion about the sequence of events. Since I know we are all only interested in the truth, please see below the EXACT text of the email that was sent to Diane Burry on January 7th, 2015, stating my reasons for withdrawal from the Jan. 15 CowTalk debate. (If you’d like to see it with the original timestamp, let me know.)
Marshall, maybe you would like to add this as an addendum to your post? It might help to give your readers more context on the reasons for all the outage about the invitation.
Have a good week!
Alan
 Dear Diane,
I have spoken to both Bill and Norman. I am formally withdrawing from the CowTalk debate. For both personal and professional reasons, I can not be part of a series that includes – indeed gives a prominent stage to – such a reckless and irresponsible speaker. Denying the holocaust (or even most of the holocaust) is a desecration of the memories of millions of innocent lives. It disgraces all who participate in it – and I do believe that hosting Mr. Fetzer for 4 events is participating in it even if it is not the explicit theme. As to the explicit themes – accusing America (actually Jews in America’s government) and Israel of bringing the towers down on 9/11 is indefensible hate speech that poses real dangers to Jews and supporters of Israel (as I am proud to be). Calling the Sandy Hook tragedy a hoax is a nightmarish insult to families who suffered unspeakable loss of their kindergarten children. The outrage of this goes on and on. Though I do not know you, I am frankly shocked that you would be a part of this – and Norman and Bill as well.
If you have a change of heart and make this series about real debatable controversies rather than a stage for Mr. Fetzer’s ideas. I’d be glad to return to our plan.
Thank you, Alan Rubenstein
Alan Rubenstein, a bigot's bigot in Northfield, MN
Alan Rubenstein, a bigot’s bigot in Northfield, MN

This man, who not only assists in teaching at Carleton College but is also associated with its “Center for Ethical Inquiry”, has demonstrated beyond any doubt that he is the leading bigot in Northfield, MN. Immediate upon hearing that I was scheduled to speak at The Cow, he broke his agreement to Norm Butler to participate in a debate on the Israel/Palestine controversy, which was both unethical and unprofessional. He demanded that Norm not feature me or allow the debate to go on without him.

Compounding his grossly offensive behavior, he has conducted a vendetta against me and Norman, doing what he can to assassinate my character and run The Cow out of business. And he doesn’t even have his facts right. He co-authored (and no doubt motivated) the editorial in The Carletonian, which implies I am a liar because, while I claim to be a professor emeritus at UMD, the university denies it! And he assails my research on Sandy Hook without bothering to read it, where he claims I am commit “a nightmarish insult to families who suffered unspeakable loss of their kindergarten (sic) children”, when not only is there no proof that anyone died at Sandy Hook but the children who were allegedly killed were in the first grade!
UPDATE (30 January 2015): New information about Alan Rubenstein has come to me from a correspondent that makes this case curiouser and curiouser. According to his linkedin page,

Something is very odd here. Why would Carleton College not have an updated entry on him (especially when an MA in Linguistics would be viewed as a prestigious degree)? If he has a background in AI, then I would expect he would be offering courses related to AI, as I did at UMD? I also find it odd that, when I wrote to Beverly Nagel, Dean of the Collage, asking her about him, she did not reply. So what’s going on here?
A correspondent in Europe who has been following this saga has sent me information from YouTube about Alan Rubenstein I find rather troubling. He has a whole series of videos about the IDF (Israeli Defense Forces), which suggests the real possibility that he might actually be Mossad. Another friend, more expert in this area than I, has told me that Israel has ops (assets or sayanims) on many campuses across the country to make sure they “stay in line” and aren’t allowed exposure to information on 9/11 or the Holocaust, especially, because it would weaken Zionist political influence around the world and in the US. I would like to believe that this is not the case, but his behavior would certainly be consistent with this interpretation. And there is more:

Alan Rubenstein subscribed to IDF
UPDATE (1 February 2015): Further confirmation that this may be the case comes from The 9/11 Toronto Report (2013), which identifies Mitre Corporation as “a private firm doing CIA contract work with the CIA and another private firm, Ptech” [suspected by many to be a key player in the 9/11 attack], where questions about Mitre and Ptech have been raised in the past by Indira Singh, which Peter Dale Scott, The Road to 9/11 (2007), discusses. The following comes from The 9/11 Toronto Report:
Use this version
If Carleton has been harboring a Mossad agent (where we estimate there may be a couple dozen across the nation)–which I certainly hope is not the case–he is not there to assist in teaching the course, “Windows on the Good Life”. Mossad agents are highly trained in psy ops, provocations, demolitions and assassinations. Being situated in a small town in Minnesota could even suggest to some that he might be using that cover to perform other tasks.
There are a half-dozen or more unsolved murders of Milita members in the vicinity and, most recently, the producer of the controversial film, “Gray State”, about FEMA imposting martial law upon the US, was found dead together with his wife and daughter in an alleged “murder / suicide”. The back door was open, where killing women and children has been cited as a trademark of the Mossad. It would be highly unsettling to have an Israeli agent performing black ops in southern Minnesota.
Among the many comments on “The Abdication of Reason and Rationality in Northfield, MN”, perhaps the most insightful came from Rick Carufel * Top Commentator * Writer at Writer, who may have put his finger precisely on the problem:
It’s mental illness, sociopathy. If a normal person sees someone like yourself is going to give a lecture they have no interest in or don’t agree with they simply don’t go to it. If a sociopath sees the same thing they feel they are entitled to try and stop it from happening. This displays several of the delusions from which sociopaths suffer. Namely delusions of importance, superiority, expertise and authority. They falsely believe their opinions are more valid than anyone else’s and they have the right to dictate the behavior of others. This problem is pandemic in America and all the drugs they pump into the population only makes it worse.
There are ironies associated with the charge of “anti-Semitism”, moreover, because anti-Semitism involves discounting or dis-valuing the worth of a person or of their opinions on the basis of their religious orientation or their genetic lineage. Criticism of the policies or actions of the government of Israel is therefore not “anti-Semitic”. New DNA studies, moreover, have shown most of the population of Israel descends from the Khazar region of Ukraine, which means that “the chosen people” are not even genetically entitled to “the promised land”. The Palestinians, by contrast, are Semites, which means that the greatest practitioners of anti-Semitism in the world are the Israelis, suggesting that the term needs to be re-defined, as Mike Harris and Preston James have proposed.

January 26, 2015, 16:45
Vladimir Putin sent his greetings to all those attending the requiem held to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz concentration camp by the Red Army and International Holocaust Remembrance Day.
1 Map of AuschwitzThe President said, in particular, in his message:
“The Holocaust was one of the most tragic and shameful pages in human history. Millions of innocent people fell victim to the Nazis, went through the hell of the death camps and were shot, tortured, and died from hunger and disease. The Red Army put an end to these atrocities and this ruthless barbarity and saved not just the Jewish people but also the other peoples of Europe and the world.
We must always remember firmly that any attempts to rewrite history and our country’s contribution to the great victory would be tantamount to justifying Nazism’s crimes and would open the door to the re-emergence of this deadly ideology. Forgetting the lessons of our common past could lead to a repeat of these terrible tragedies. It is therefore our duty to defend the truth about the events of World War II and stand up for the achievements, dignity, and good name of the living and the fallen. This is our duty and a matter of honour before the generations to come.”

Putin’s statement sounds fine, until your consider that he is endorsing some variant of the “official narrative”. I am relieved that he did not affirm that 6,000,000 Jews were exterminated in concentration camps by being gassed in chambers using Zyklon B. I would like to believe that the President of Russia has too much respect for scientific research and that he does not embrace assertions that would violate the laws of biochemistry and of materials science. Let me close by observing that we should all share a commitment to getting history right, especially in cases such as this one, where false and exaggerated accounts have been deployed for political purposes to advance the political agenda of a single country for its own national benefit, regardless of logic, truth and evidence.

Breaking the Spell

The Holocaust, Myth & Reality

Breaking the Spell
Click on cover to look at excerpts of the book.
By Nicholas Kollerstrom
£20.00
In 1941, British Intelligence analysts cracked the German “Enigma” code. This undermined the German war effort – but also threw new light on day-by-day events in the Nazi concentration camp system. Between January 1942 and January 1943, encrypted radio communications between those camps and the Berlin headquarters were intercepted and decrypted. Oddly enough, historians have largely ignored the information furnished in these intercepts relating to “arrivals,” “departures,” recorded deaths and other events at these camps. The only reasonable explanation for this embarrassing omission is that the intercepted data seriously contradicts, even refutes, the orthodox “Holocaust” narrative. The revealed information does not expose a program of mass murder and racial genocide. Quite the opposite: it reveals that the Germans were determined, desperate even, to reduce the death rate in their work camps, which was caused by catastrophic typhus epidemics.
Nick Kollerstrom introduces his new book 'Breaking the Spell' Watch the author's YouTube presentation on occasion of the launch of this book in London.
Were the British here hoodwinked by the Nazis, as some historians to this day try to claim—or is the truth both simpler and more shocking?
In 1988 and 1991 forensic studies threw light on the question of whether or not the claimed gas chambers at Auschwitz had served as slaughter houses for hundreds of thousands of people. Both studies had concluded that the only facilities where Zyklon B gas had been used were hygienic rather than homicidal, killing bugs rather than Jews. Needless to say that these iconoclastic studies were ignored or in some countries even outlawed, and that their authors were ostracized and even imprisoned.
Dr. Kollerstrom, a science historian, has taken these studies, which are in obvious, stark contrast to the widely accepted narrative, as a starting point for his own endeavour into the land of taboo. After he had published a brief paper summarizing what he thought the data forced him to conclude, he was thrown out of his College where he had been a member of staff for eleven years.
Listen to a presentation by Prof. em. Dr. J.H. Fetzer on this book;
scroll forward to 1:02:00
In his new book Breaking the Spell, Dr. Kollerstrom shows that “witness statements” supporting the human gas chamber narrative clearly clash with the available scientific data. He juxtaposes the commonly accepted ideas about a Nazi extermination policy toward the Jews with a wide array of mostly unchallenged, but usually unmentioned evidence pointing in a quite different direction:
  • Zyklon B is a buzz word for the claimed Nazi mass murder, but all non-anecdotal evidence proves that this chemical was merely used as a pesticide in order to improve the inmates’ health and reduce, not increase, camp mortality.
  • The Auschwitz camp authorities kept meticulous records of who died in the camp and why. A statistical analysis of the data does not match the kind of data to be expected, if the widespread view of what transpired in that camp were true.
  • The UK’s intelligence decrypts prove that the German camp authorities were desperately trying to save their inmates’ lives.
  • Zyklon B applied in delousing chambers formed chemical compounds detectable to this day. No such compounds can be found, but ought to be expected, in the claimed homicidal gas chambers.
  • “Six Million Jews threatened or killed”: read 167 quotes from newspapers with that “news” spanning from 1900 to 1945, with a peak after World War ONE! Yes, one, not two!
  • Germany has paid compensation to millions of Nazi victims, and Israel has implicitly admitted that many million Jews survived the Holocaust.
  • A British archaeological team looked for traces of the claimed 800,000 victims of the Treblinka camp—and came back empty-handed.
  • The Auschwitz camp had for the inmates: a swimming pool, soccer games, theatre, library, choirs, orchestras, hospital with modern surgeries...
Dr. Kollerstrom concludes that the history of the Nazi “Holocaust” has been written by the victors with ulterior motives and that this history is distorted, exaggerated and largely wrong. He asserts that this history is, in truth, a great lie that distorts our common perceived reality and misdirects human history to this very day.

WHY WERE 'HOLOCAUST SURVIVORS' SO WELL-FED?


http://www.scrapbookpages.com/DachauScrapbook/DachauPhotos/OldPhotos/DachauBabies1.jpg
WHY WERE SO MANY 'HOLOCAUST SURVIVORS' SO WELL-FED?
 
By Mike King

We have all seen those gruesome images of emaciated concentration camp inmates described as 'Holocaust TM survivors'. Some of these images were indeed those of victims of various diseases known to have existed in the camps --especially toward the end of the war as conditions deteriorated. Some others are straight-up fakes; and others may even have been images of Germans who were placed in the camps and starved after the war's end. Who can say for sure which photos represent which situation?
But one thing we can say with absolute certainty is that there are numerous images, from numerous internment camps, which reveal happy and healthy inmates at the time of liberation. Indeed, a few of them look downright chubby! In addition to the over-abundance of other evidence to refute the Holohoax, these images add a final finishing touch - a death blow to the fairy tale of "extermination camps". It simply defies all logic and reason to suggest that the Germans would fatten inmates who were destined for "zee gass chambers". 
The fact that so many inmates "survived" is more than enough evidence to debunk the Holohoax -- but the added fact that they were well fed and sheltered, even toward the very end, makes the tale laughable. The following collection of liberation photos speaks for itself. Note the healthy bodies and some of the happy faces. Of course, we would expect the liberated inmates of a detention camp to smile -- but not the traumatized inmates of an "extermination camp" where mass murder and torture were said to have occurred on a daily basis. No sir. Those joyous smiles are out of place, as are the waistlines!

There are plenty more images of newly liberated prisoners who were obviously well-fed -- even after the German guards had fled the camps in advance of the Allied advance. How good of these ruthless 'exterminators' to have fed their intended victims so well -- right up until the very end. Heck -- they even took good care of the pregnant Jewish moms!

ISRAEL ~ BORN OF TERRORISM, NOURISHED BY BLOOD

The West forgets that Israel is founded on blood and terrorism.

THE TERRORIST STATE THAT IS ISRAEL
.
THIS PIECE IS DEDICATED TO ALL WHO SAY HAMAS STARTED THE SITUATION BETWEEN ISRAEL AND PALESTINE ESPECIALLY IN REGARDS TO THIS LATEST HOLOCAUST FROM DECEMBER 28, 2008 ~ JANUARY 18, 2009. THIS IS TO ALL WHO CLAIM HAMAS BROKE THE PEACE FIRE, AND ARE TERRORISTS FROM HADES. I DO NOT DEFEND HAMAS IN THE LEAST, BUT IT WOULD BE GOOD FOR THOSE WHO LIVE IN DENIAL TO LEARN. PRETEND TO BE A PALESTINIAN FOR JUST A SHORT TIME AND IMAGINE YOUR REACTION TO THE THINGS I LIST BELOW GOING ON AND ON WITH NO HOPE FOR AN ENDING!
.
WHEN I BEGAN THIS PIECE, I HAD NO IDEA THAT THE LIST WOULD BE SO LONG! AND IT IS QUITE INCOMPLETE! BUT IF ONE REALLY WANTS TO KNOW THE TRUTH START HERE AND THEN DO YOUR HOMEWORK. WHAT AMAZES ME IS HOW BRITAIN, AMERICA AND EGYPT HAVE FORGIVEN ISRAEL FOR CRIMES AGAINST THEIR OWN PEOPLE, JUST A FEW OF WHICH ARE LISTED HERE.
.


EARLY ISRAELI TERRORIST GROUPS

Soon after the end of World War II, there were three basic para-military Zionist organizations in Palestine, working against the Arab people, with the specific purpose of driving it out of Palestine. These were the Haganah, the Irgun Zvai Leumi, and the Stern Gang.
.
Gaza is full-scale war but just the latest bloodstained episode in Israel’s six-decade reign of terror against Palestinians. Here you will learn about others since 1946, two years before the establishment of a Jewish state. The list is long, VERY incomplete, very disturbing, and shows what Palestinians and so many others in the Middle East have endured for well over 60 years. This extermination policy is much more openly pursued on the West Bank and Gaza, with the heavily controlled international media telling the story as Israel and complicit governments wish it to be told. Always, little Israel is defending itself from the powerful hateful Arabian people.
.
Very interestingly, these participants are proud of their past actions and insist they were not terrorists but merely working towards an honourable goal, the removal of all Arabs from Palestine for the creation of the state of Israel on stolen and confiscated land. To quote one of these men, "We did not mind being called terrorists back then because we used brutal force to get rid of them." Interesting that this nation, built on blood, terrorist nation and rogue, cries foul at small rockets fired by their victims and then uses this as an excuse to erase thousands of civilians because "Hamas" is involved.
.


Before the British Mandate, the Jewish settlers had formed a group of mounted armed watchmen called Hashomar and with the advent of the British Mandate, it became the Haganah (Defense). With a membership of 60,000 Zionist Jews, the Haganah had a field army of 16,000 trained men and a unit called the Palmach, which was a full-time force, numbering about 6000. 
.
The Irgun Zvai Leumi included between 3000 and 5000 armed terrorists, and grew out of the Haganah and its Palmach branch in 1933. The Irgun was not ready to obey the Jewish Agency which sought to dilute the terror of the Haganah in order not to lose its respectability.
.

In 1939, one of Irgun's commanding officers, Abraham Stern, left the parent organization and formed the Stern Gang, numbering some 200 to 300 dangerous fanatics. Future Prime Ministers of Israel began their careers in these gangs.
 .
ZIONIST TERRORIST ACTIVITIES 1939 ~ 2007
 



1939 ~ Haganah blew up the Iraqi oil pipeline near Haifa. Moshe Dayan was one of the participants in the act. This technique was used again in 1947 at least 4 times. 

.
August 20, 1937 ~ June 29, 1939 During this period, Zionists carried out a series of attacks against Arab buses, resulting in the death of 24 persons and wounding 25 others. 
.
1939 ~ Jerusalem Post Office
. November 25, 1940 ~ S.S.Patria was blown up by Jewish terrorists in Haifa harbour, killing 268 illegal Jewish immigrants. The explosion was the work of the Jewish underground army, the Haganah, who had meant only to damage the ship to prevent it sailing but had miscalculated the amount of explosives needed to disable the ship. Many say that this was no miscalculation and was deliberate murder of Jews by Jews, in an attempt to influence British immigration policy to Palestine.
.
February 24, 1942 ~ S.S. Struma exploded in the Black Sea, killing 769 illegal Jewish immigrants. Described by the Jewish Agency as an act of "mass-protest and mass-suicide." 
.
November 6, 1944 ~ Zionist terrorists of the Stern Gang assassinated the British Minister Resident in the Middle East, Lord Moyne, in Cairo.
.


July 22, 1946 ~ Zionist terrorists blew up the King David Hotel in Jerusalem, which housed the central offices of the civilian administration of the government of Palestine, killing or injuring more than 200 persons. The Menachem Begin-led Irgun planned and conducted the massacre of 92 Brits, Arabs and Jews, wounding 58 others.
.
As head of the Jewish Agency, David Ben-Gurion approved the operation. It was to destroy British-gathered evidence that its leaders colluded with the Haganah, Palmach, Irgun and Stern gangs in a wave of terrorist crimes and killings. Bombing the King David Hotel was the most notorious and followed a pattern before and since of brutal Israeli state terrorism.
.



.
October 1, 1946 ~ The British Embassy in Rome was badly damaged by bomb explosions, for which Irgun claimed responsibility. 
.
June 1947 ~ Letters sent to British Cabinet Ministers were found to contain bombs.
.

.
September 3, 1947 ~ A postal bomb addressed to the British War Office exploded in the post office sorting room in London, injuring 2 persons. It was attributed to Irgun or Stern Gangs. (The Sunday Times, Sept. 24, 1972, p.8)
.
By now, PLAN DALETH was in full swing. As expulsions and massacres gathered pace, the Zionist leaders discussed and finally adopted what was known as Plan Daleth which gave clear orders to commanders of the Haganah ~ the Zionists’ main military force ~ on how to deal with Palestinians:
“These operations can be carried out either by destroying villages by setting fire to them, by blowing them up and by planting mines in their rubble, and especially those population centres which are difficult to control permanently; or by mounting combing and control operations according to the following guidelines; encirclement of the villages, conducting a search inside them. In case of resistance, the armed forces must be wiped out and the population expelled outside the borders of the state.”
December 11, 1947 ~ Six Arabs were killed and 30 wounded when bombs were thrown from Jewish trucks at Arab buses in Haifa; 12 Arabs were killed and others injured in an attack by armed Zionists on an Arab coastal village near Haifa. In the city of Haifa, Zionist forces began rolling barrels of explosives into Palestinian neighbourhoods and poured burning oil into the streets. They then machine gunned residents who tried to put out the flames.
.
December 13,1947 ~ Zionist terrorists, believed to be members of Irgun Zvai Leumi, killed 18 Arabs and wounded nearly 60 in Jerusalem, Jaffa and Lydda areas. In Jerusalem, bombs were thrown in an Arab market-place near the Damascus Gate; in Jaffa, bombs were thrown into an Arab cafe; in the Arab village of Al Abbasya, near Lydda, 12 Arabs were killed in an attack with mortars and automatic weapons.
.
December 19, 1947 ~ Haganah terrorists attacked an Arab village near Safad, IN Gallilee, blowing up two houses in the dead of night as the family slept. In the ruins of which were found the bodies of 10 Arabs, including 5 children. Haganah admitted responsibility for the attackas well as other similar attacks at that time. 
.

December 29, 1947 ~ Two British constables and 11 Arabs were killed and 32 Arabs injured, at the Damascus Gate in Jerusalem when Irgun members threw a bomb from a taxi. 
.
December 30,1947 ~ A mixed force of the Zionist Palmach and the Carmel Brigade attacked the village of Balad al Sheikh, killing more than 60 Arabs. 
.
George Galloway interviews
Jewish historian Ilan Pappe about Nakkba.
.
1947 - 1948 ~ Nakhba! ~ Over 700,000 -800,000 Palestinian Arabs were uprooted from their homes and land; since then, they have been denied the right to return or been given compensation for their property. After their expulsion, the Israeli Forces razed to the ground 385 Arab villages and towns out of a total of 475, and obliterated their remains. Eventually, Israeli villages, Kibbutzim and towns were built on the remaining rubble.
.
Newly arrived Jewish women walk through the rubble of their new home.
.
Israel has never acknowledged the right of Palestinian refugees to return because it knows that such a return would spoil its project of maintaining a Jewish majority within its borders. These refugees do not pose a threat to Jewish communities within Israel, but rather to the Israeli state ideology which leaves no room for a non-Jewish identity within Israel. Israel’s goal has never been to be a democracy for its citizens, but rather a Jewish democracy.
.

Note the absence of men who were sent to labor or concentration camps.
.
December 13, 1947 - February 10, 1948 ~ Seven incidents of bomb-tossing at innocent Arab civilians in cafes and markets, killing 138 and wounding 271 others, During this period, there were 9 attacks on Arab buses.

.
September 16, 1982 ~ Sharon sent the Maronite Christian Phalangist murder squads into two Palestinian refugee camps, Sabra and Chatila. With Israeli tanks and troops closely surrounding the camps to prevent anyone from escaping, the murder squads machine-gunned, bayoneted, and bludgeoned Palestinian civilians all that night, the next day and the following night while the Israelis surrounding the camps listened gleefully to the machine gun fires and screams coming from inside.
.
Sharon then sent in bulldozers to hide as much of the atrocity as he could. Some 1500 to 2500 Palestinian men, women and children were butchered. Even after the efforts of Sharon’s bulldozers, many Palestinians remained unburied, and the Red Cross workers discovered entire families, including hundreds of elderly and little children, with their throats cut or disemboweled.

.

Mahmoud Abu Hanoud, murdered because he fought for the two-state
solution which Israel wishes to avoid at all costs. Removal of
moderate leaders will drive Palestinians to the fanatics,
giving Israel its extremist enemy.

November 23, 2001 ~ Mahmoud Abu Hanoud was assassinated when Israelis bombed the car in which he was traveling near Nablus. Upon Hanoud's death it was said, "While the Israelis say they've always gone after 'terrorist' targets, they have, in fact, also gone after those members of the Palestinian leadership who have two important attributes: One, they were interested in a two-state solution, and two, they were the kind of people who were strong enough to be the peace party in Palestinian leadership. Most of these guys have been killed. The Israeli strategy is to kill the moderate Palestinians as well as militants and send this thing careening towards an endgame where Israel has the extremist enemy it wants. Sharon is driving Palestinian society more and more to the right, to the fanatics, which is calculated to create the results he wants. In 1923, radical Zionist Ze'ev Jabotinsky-spiritual father of not only of Menachem Begin but of Meir Kahane-wrote that the "sole way" for Jews to deal with Arabs in Palestine was through 'total avoidance of all attempts to arrive at a settlement' ~ which Jabotinsky euphemistically termed the "'ron wall' approach. Not coincidentally, a picture of Jabotinsky graces Sharon's desk"

.
December 10, 2001 ~ Palestinian activist Muhammad Sidir, 24, was hit by a missile dropped in a crowded intersection. Two Palestinian children died in the attacks and two other children were injured.

The remains of the car bomb that killed Elie Hobeika.

January 24, 2002 ~ Elie Hobeika, a Lebanese national, was a key witness in the Sabra-Chatila war crimes case being pursued in a Belgian court against Israeli prime minister Ariel Sharon. Hobeika was blown up outside his house in Beirut together with three bodyguards and a civilian bystander. The car-bomb was the work of professional assassins in the employ of Mossad. The explosion occurred two days after Hobeika agreed to give evidence against Sharon. Marwan Hamadeh, the Lebanese minister for refugees stated,"My initial evaluation is that of course Israel doesn't want witnesses against it in this historic case in Belgium." Israeli Prime Minister Terrorist Sharon dismissed the charges: "I am simply saying, from our point of view, we have no link to this subject at all, and this is not worthy of a comment," Sharon told reporters.
.
September to December of 2001 ~ Some 200 Palestinian children were killed and 400 injured by the Israeli forces. Sixty Palestinian homes in Gaza were destroyed as part of a collective punishment for the death of 4 Israeli soldiers.

March 30, 2002 ~ Five Palestinian bank guards executed in Ramallah by the Israeli soldiers.
.
April 3-11, 2002 ~ IDF massacred at least 52 Palestinian civilians. So brutal was the Israeli action that the HRW castigated Israel to have “committed serious violations of international humanitarian law, some amounting prima facie to war crimes." Amnesty International, in its November 4, 2002 report on Jenin and Nablus similarly alleged that Israel had committed war crimes. Specifically, the reports stated that unlawful killings occurred; there was a failure to ensure medical or humanitarian relief; demolition of houses and property occurred; water and electricity supplies to civilians were cut; torture or other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment in arbitrary detention occurred; and Palestinians civilians were used for military operations or as “human shields.” In addition, the Amnesty report charged that civilians were not warned before their houses were demolished and hence they were buried in the rubble.

.
July 15, 2006 ~ The IDF, shortly before its invasion of Lebanon, in an official response to the kidnapping of one of its soldiers by the Hamas militants near the Gaza Strip, undertook a severe raid, in which at least 60 civilians were killed and hundreds injured. Israeli planes bombed an electrical power distribution facility, knocking out power to half of the Gaza Strip, and knocking out water pumping stations, leaving much of the Strip without potable water. Bridges linking the northern and southern halves of the Gaza strip were bombed, and border crossings were closed, putting at risk the civilian population of the Strip, which is totally dependent on supplies of food and fuel brought in through the border crossings with Israel.
.
July-August 2006 ~ The Israeli Air Force bombed Lebanon for 34 days, killing some 1,300 civilians. So sadistic was the bombing campaign, Lebanon was dubbed to have been “bombed into the stone age.” Lebanon’s infrastructure was destroyed.
.
November 8, 2006 ~ The IDF shelled a row of houses in the Gaza Strip town of Beit Hanoun, killing 19 Palestinians and wounding more than 40. Italy’s foreign minister Massimo D’Alema called the shelling of the civilians deliberate.
.
The 2007 Amnesty International Report for the year ending in December of 2006 stated, “Increased violence between Israelis and Palestinians resulted in a threefold increase in killings of Palestinians by Israeli forces. The number of Israelis killed by Palestinian armed groups diminished by half. More than 650 Palestinians, including some 120 children, and 27 Israelis were killed. Israeli forces carried out air and artillery bombardments in the Gaza Strip, and Israel continued to expand illegal settlements and to build a 700-km fence/wall on Palestinian land in the Occupied Territories.
.
Military blockades and increased restrictions imposed by Israel on the movement of Palestinians and the confiscation by Israel of Palestinian customs duties caused a significant deterioration in living conditions for Palestinian inhabitants in the Occupied Territories, with poverty, food aid dependency, health problems and unemployment reaching crisis levels. Israeli soldiers and settlers committed serious human rights abuses, including unlawful killings, against Palestinians, mostly with impunity.
.
Thousands of Palestinians were arrested by Israeli forces throughout the Occupied Territories on suspicion of security offenses and hundreds were held in administrative detention.
.
Israeli conscientious objectors continued to be imprisoned for refusing to serve in the army. In a 34-day war against Hezbollah in Lebanon in July-August, Israeli forces committed serious violations of international humanitarian law, including war crimes. Israeli bombardments killed nearly 1,200 people, and destroyed or damaged tens of thousands of homes and other civilian infrastructure. Israeli forces also littered south Lebanon with around a million unexploded cluster bombs which continued to kill and maim civilians after the conflict.”
.


June 1, 2007 ~ Israeli troops shot and killed two 13-year-old Palestinians ~Ahmed Abu Zbeida and Zaher al-Majdalawi ~ near the Gaza-Israel border fence, saying that they were crawling toward the barrier in a “suspicious manner.” The boys had told their families they were going to the beach. (The Guardian, June 1, 2007)
.
In its year-end review of Israeli violence against Palestinian people, the Israeli Human Rights Organization B’tselem stated that in 2007, up to 29 December, Israeli security forces killed 373 Palestinians ~ 290 in Gaza, 83 in the West Bank, 53 among them minors.
.
By comparison, in 2006, 657 Palestinians were killed, including 140 minors: 523 in Gaza, 134 in the West Bank.
.
In 2007, there was an increase of 13 % in the number of Palestinians held in administrative detention without trial, which averaged 830 people. Sixty-six staffed checkpoints and 459 physical roadblocks on average controlled movement inside the West Bank, thus hindering Palestinians’ freedom of movement.
.
Israel continued the freeze policy on family unification, denying tens of thousands of Palestinians the right to a family life. The number of houses demolished in East Jerusalem rose by 38 percent. Palestinians continue to face severe discrimination in the allocation of water in the West Bank, causing serious hardship in the summer.
.
The 2008 Amnesty International Report, in its year-end review for 2007, stated, “The human rights situation in the Israeli Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT) remained dire. Israeli forces killed more than 370 Palestinians, destroyed more than 100 Palestinian homes and imposed ever more stringent restrictions on the movement of Palestinians.
.
In June, the Israeli government imposed an unprecedented blockade on the Gaza Strip, virtually imprisoning its entire 1.5 million population, subjected them to collective punishment and causing the gravest humanitarian crisis to date. Some 40 Palestinians died after being refused passage out of Gaza for urgent medical treatment not available in local hospitals. Some 9,000 Palestinian adults and children remained in Israeli jails, some of whom had been held without charge or trial for years.” During the same period 13 Israelis were killed by Palestinian armed groups.
.
As if this litany of state terrorism is not enough, Palestinians suspected of actively opposing Israel’s occupation of the West Bank or Gaza, have had their homes and families attacked by Israeli tanks, mortars, missiles and bombs. And after their suspect is killed or imprisoned, the Israeli army bulldozes or dynamites their family’s home. Over the years of occupation, thousands of homes have been destroyed in this fashion. Israel has also killed hundreds of Palestinian leaders by assassination. Such attacks often kill innocent bystanders.
.
Police brutality against Arab Israelis is common and well documented. Illegal detention, beatings, personal property confiscations and torture of Arab citizens of Israel are a fact of life. Their homes are routinely invaded and ransacked in the middle of the night, under the pretext of searching for suspects. From 1967 to 1988 more than 600,000 Palestinians have been held in Israeli jail for periods ranging from one week to life. During the first Intifada (1987-1994), Israel arrested some 175,000 Palestinians. According to the B’tselem, some 85% of Palestinian detainees have been tortured during interrogation.
.
The Israeli torture includes everything from choking victims with urine and feces soaked bags tied over their heads to using electric cattle prods for anal rape and mutilation. The brutal torture of prisoners and detainees is recognized as a particularly vicious form of terrorism. Many thousands of Palestinians and Lebanese have died while in Israeli custody.
.
The use of cluster bombs in civilian territories is known to kill unarmed civilians and as such considered a crime, according to most international laws. However, Israel used cluster bombs in its bombing campaigns in Lebanon. Not surprisingly, therefore, that while the rest of the world recently vowed never to under any circumstance “use cluster munitions” nor “develop, produce, otherwise acquire, stockpile, retain or transfer to anyone, directly or indirectly, cluster munitions,” Israel, like the USA, China and Russia have not ratified the treaty banning its use.
.
Notwithstanding the fact that the above list of terrorism is incomplete, what is clear is that many of the leaders of the State of Israel ~ Begin, Rabin, Shamir, Barak and Sharon ~ were terrorists and that, irrespective of who runs the government there, the State of Israel continues to practice terrorism against her dispossessed Palestinians and neighbors. Audaciously, she has also practiced terrorism against the USA, the country which has been her greatest benefactor.
.
Recently, Israel’s latest 11-month blockade of Gaza has been dubbed as “abominable” by Desmond Tutu, the Nobel Laureate for Peace. He denounced the international community by stating that “our silence and complicity, especially on the situation in Gaza, shames us all. It is almost like the behavior of the military junta in Burma."
.
The recent war in Palestine was no war ~ it was a holocaust in which children and women were targeted, as in Lebanon two years prior. The old saw children used as shields for Hamas is given and the media accepts it. It is well documented that Israel blatantly ignored the six month ceasefire and, when Hamas retaliated, Israel fell upon the Palestinians with a heavy and ugly boot. Meanwhile the settlement plans for the West Bank are being doubled as the settlers continue to terrorize and kill Palestinians. The so-called current ceasefire is marked with one breach after another by Israel ~ a young farmer here, a family there, Israel continues its path of expulsion and terror. And always the children.

.
Sadly, many lawmakers in the West who cry out foul about human rights violations in places like Burma and China ~ especially when it comes to Tibet ~ are the most vocal supporters of state terrorism of Israel. Why this double standard? Are all complicit leaders in Europe and the West in agreement with this Zionist genocide or will they ever develop the moral courage to condemn Israel for her monumental records of state terrorism?

  1. You forgot Sept 11 and 7/7! ;-) And Entebbe was recently discovered an Isr-eli hoax from the start.

    Great job putting it all together Barbara, quite the list! I've added it as a page on my site, where I put primary articles of education.

    Have you heard about "Canada Park" in Isr-el? Isr-eli youngsters drive their motorbikes over the remains of destroyed Arab villages where Jesus walked.

  3. Yes this article I'll save, that's how it is, and: Neocons and Israelis urging through the world-press to attack Iraq and Iran. About Lebanon 2006. a criminal war-attack, here in EU was little critique and Gaza recently, all Western media lied, that Hamas was responsible, while Israel broke the truce on Nov.4.08 and killed 5 Pals inside Gaza.
    Debate with Norman Finkelstein:
    http://www.democracynow.org/2009/1/8/former_amb_martin_indyk_vs_author

    But I would not compare this terrorism with WW-2, the picture of "Nazi-Germany" is coming through Tv and Hollywood and is wrong. To who started the war, there is a new book by Pat Buchanan, accusing Churchill, and Victor Suvorov describing Stalin's draw up 1941 to attack Germany with big overpower. The Soviets had not accepted the Geneva Convention and the Bolshevic commissars were using any sort of bloody terror like then the partisans.
    The aggression against Lebanon and Gaza can be compared with the Allied bombing of German civilian cities.
    The Zionists have falsified the history of their war against the Palestinians and also the role of Germany in the second World-war.
    Big thanks for this article that brings the true description of the time.

  4. It would be hard to put together a day by day account in the same way for the atrocities of the Bolsheviks, but are remarkably similar in nature to those of Israel. This is so much the case, that the one collection looks like a continuation of the other.

    Would you mind me pointing out that the same pattern of corruption of a country's government through money power, followed by attempts at dispossession of the country's native citizenry has been going on for the last 1,000 years always using the most brutal methods. The brutality is always attributed to the victims. Curiously the purpetraters frequently seem drawn from the same group.

    The engineered financial crisis may well turn the bulk of the population of many countries into Palestinians desperately fighting against being made into helots.

    Fritz is of course entirely correct with regard to WWII.

  6. It becomes even more coherent if we follow the history of Zionism, that became political with the Balfour declaration 1917 between the banker "Lord Rothschild" and the British minister Balfour about the creation of a Jewish state in the British colony of Palestine in exchange for war propaganda against Germany and Austria, which then led to the dictate of Versailles. (as Benjamin Freedman also declared, eventually at iamthewitness.com /only that they are often disturbed at their site, but Freedman is very serious).
    O.K., it's good to investigate from 1939/45 on more in detail.
    Though cruelties and terror can be used by any other people, that have moral education removed, probably like e.g. Talmudist, Bolshevism, Pol Pot .. But for most people it is hard to understand how the falsified history of Israel is accepted still in the West, and that in our modern age of science and information. The same with Iraq-war, ("Saddam's weapons of mass destruction") - and that made me think again about political history and research more, as probably very many other people too.

  10. What a lot of disinformation and fake propaganda. Maybe you forget that the first one who started the violence were the arabs with their violent protests against who? Against civilians and refugees from the antisemitic Europe. You're real pathethic and I can clearly see your antisemitism disguised as antizionism. Read more about Zionism and less about anti-israeli or anti-semitic arab-made hitlerian-look-like cheap propaganda.
    There's no fucking apartheid in Israel. There's no fucking genocide. The genocide is when you exterminate a people. The Jews in Europe were nearly 10 millions and in WWII died 6 millions. The Arabs so called "palestinians" were 1.5 millions in 1948 and now they are 5 millions in the region (9 millions of people around the world consider themselves as "Palestinians")....increasing a people is a genocide? Is an Holocaust? Your comparisons are really childish and with no sense as hilarious worlds used by ignorant and jealous people like "ziofascism", "zionazism" etc...
    The fact is that you, dumb people, only hates Israel. You just give a shit about civilians (which real oppressors are Hamas islamofascists, using international aid and funds to increase their bank accounts instead protect their own people with bunkers as the israeli do). You don't care about other humanitarian crisis around the world because there's no Israel involved. Pretty hipocrit. Israel is the only democracy in the region (only if you consider more democratic countries where freedom of speech is condemned, infidels are killed, women are considered less than men and minorities are persecuted everyday) and will live for centuries as the Jewish people survived to any extermination plan, and not a bunch of brainwashed islamofascists will break it, nor a bunch of western liberal cunts.

QUOTES BY JEWS

“The Talmud is to this day the circulating heart’s blood of the Jewish religion. Whatever laws, customs or ceremonies we observe – whether we are Orthodox, Conservative, Reform or merely spasmodic sentimentalists – we follow the Talmud. It is our common law.” ~ Herman Wouk
WISE WORDS AND WARNINGS OF WICKEDNESS

"If [Jews] are as wise as they claim to be, they will labour to make Jews American, instead of labouring to make America Jewish. The genius of the United States of America is Christian in the broadest sense, and its destiny is to remain Christian. This carries no sectarian meaning with it, but relates to a basic principle which differs from other principles in that it provides for liberty with morality, and pledges society to a code of relations based on fundamental Christian conceptions of human rights and duties." ~ Henry Ford
“It doesn’t even enter their heads to build up a Jewish state in Palestine for the purpose of living there; all they want is a central organization for their international world swindle, endowed with its own sovereign rights and removed from the intervention of other states: a haven for convicted scoundrels and a university for budding crooks.” ~ Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, Chapter 11

The real God of the Universe does not have “Chosen” in the first place because he is perfect as we understand and predilection is a human weakness. The Jews invented the OT to fool humanity as always. The real God of the Universe does not send any body to kill, destroy his own creation, to rape, to maim, to create misery and havoc on other people. Don’t you get it? the God in the OT is a monster, is another one of the many Gods in the dessert, those sacrifices offered to God are Satanic as their name and the Jews keep offering sacrifices to their God. Last year they immolated thousands of human beings in Gaza to their God Baal, Moloch, Azazel, Satan, Lucifer. ~Isaas, TUT

"I had been asked to sign a pledge for Israel when I first became a candidate for Congress and after refusing to do so my congressional career became trench warfare, hand to hand combat just to remain in the congress.

"Himself a Jew, Marx has around him, in London and France, but especially in Germany, a multitude of more or less clever, scheming, agile, speculating Jews ~ such as Jews are everywhere: commercial or banking agents, writers, politicians, reporters for newspapers of all shades, with one foot in the bank and the other in the socialist movement, and with their arses sitted upon the German daily press ~ they have taken possession of all the newspapers ~ and you can imagine what kind of sickening literature they produce. Now, this entire Jewish world, which glut a single profiteering sect, a nation of blooksuckers, a single gluttonous parasite closely and intimately interlinked not only across national borders, but across all differences of political opinion ~ this Jewish world today stands for the most part at the disposal of Marx and, at the same time, at the disposal of Rothschild.

This may seem strange. What can there be in common between Communism and the largest banks? Ho-ho! The Communism of Marx seeks an enormous centralization of the state, and where such exists, there must inevitably be a central state bank, and where such a bank exists, the parasitic Jewish nation, which profiteers from the labour of others, will always find a way to prevail. In reality, for the proletariat, this would be a barrack regime, under which the working men and the working women, converted into a uniform mass, would rise, fall asleep, work, and live at the beat of the drum." ~ Bakunin (1814-1876)

“We entered the synagogue, which was packed with the greatest stinking bunch of humanity I have ever seen. When we got about halfway up, the head rabbi, who was dressed in a fur hat similar to that worn by Henry VIII of England and in a surplice heavily embroidered and very filthy, came down and met the General (Eisenhower)...The smell was so terrible that I almost fainted and actually about three hours later lost my lunch as the result remembering it." ~ General Patton in Germany, diary entry Sept 17, 1945

The U.S. Congress officially recognized the Noahide Laws in legislation that was passed by both houses. Congress and the President of the U.

They also acknowledged that the Seven Laws of Noah are the foundation upon which civilization stands and that recent weakening of these principles threaten the fabric of civilized society, and that justified preoccupation in educating the Citizens of the U.S. of America and future generations is needed. For this purpose, this Public Law designated March 26, 1991 as Education Day.”

'There is no such thing, at this date of the world's history, in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it.

You know it and I know it and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals for rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men.

WHAT TALMUDICS THINK
Historically, Jews had always thrived in nations and empires with multicultural, pluralistic and tolerant environments, while they fared badly in strong ethnic or nationalistic societies. European Jews have always been the emblematic stranger or ‘other’. Therefore, by definition, a society where the stranger is welcome is good for the Jews, although they have not always appreciated this link. The future of European Jewry is dependent on our ability to shape a multicultural, pluralistic and diverse society. ~ Göran Rosenberg, Jewish author and journalist
**********
American Jews are committed to cultural tolerance because of their belief ~ one firmly rooted in history ~ that Jews are safe only in a society acceptant of a wide range of attitudes and behaviors, as well as a diversity of religious and ethnic groups. It is this belief, for example, not approval of homosexuality, that leads an overwhelming majority of U.S. Jews to endorse ‘gay rights’ and to take a liberal stance on most other so-called ‘social’ issues. ~ Charles Silberman, Jewish writer and journalist

REVENGE OF THE JEWISH RABBIS OF SPAIN
In 1492 CE, Chemor, chief Rabbi of Spain, wrote to the Grand Sanhedrin, which had its seat in Constantinople, for advice, when a Spanish law threatened expulsion (after the fall of Muslim rule in spain).

This was the reply:

” Beloved brethren in Moses, we have received your letter in which you tell us of the anxieties and misfortunes which you are enduring. We are pierced by as great pain to hear it as yourselves. The advice of the Grand Satraps and Rabbis is the following:

1. As for what you say that the King of Spain obliges you to become Christians: do it, since you cannot do otherwise.
2. As for what you say about the command to despoil you of your property: make your sons merchants that they may despoil, little by little, the Christians of theirs.
3. As for what you say about making attempts on your lives: make your sons doctors and apothecaries, that they may take away Christians’ lives.
4. As for what you say of their destroying your synagogues: make your sons canons and clerics in order that they may destroy their churches. [Emphasis mine]
5. As for the many other vexations you complain of: arrange that your sons become advocates and lawyers, and see that they always mix in affairs of State, that by putting Christians under your yoke you may dominate the world and be avenged on them.
6. Do not swerve from this order that we give you, because you will find by experience that, humiliated as you are, you will reach the actuality of power.

(Signed) PRINCE OF THE JEWS OF CONSTANTINOPLE.”
------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ----
The reply is found in the sixteenth century Spanish book, La Silva Curiosa, by Julio-Iniguez de Medrano (Paris, Orry, 1608), on pages 156 and 157, with the following explanation: “This letter following was found in the archives of Toledo by the Hermit of Salamanca, (while) searching the ancient records of the kingdoms of Spain; and, as it is expressive and remarkable, I wish to write it here.” ~ vide, photostat facing page 80. ~ The above was quoted from Waters Flowing Eastward by Paquita de Shishmareff, pp. 73-74

“[1] When the Lord your God brings you into the land that you are about to enter and occupy, and he clears away many nations before you ~ the Hittites, the Girgashites, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations mightier and more numerous than you – [2] and when the Lord your God gives them over to you and you defeat them, then you must utterly destroy them. Make no covenant with them and show them no mercy” (Deut 7:1-2).

"Compassion towards the wicked is really wickedness. It is along these lines that Rabbi Levi opened his speech in honor of Purim: (Talmud, Megillah, 11a): "If you do not uproot the inhabitants of the Land, and allow them to remain - they will become thorns in your sides, and will cause trouble for you in the Land in which you dwell." (Bamidbar 33:55) The mitzvah, then of wiping out Amalek [Palestinians], actually stems from the value of compassion and kindness - compassion on all those whom Amalek threatens to exterminate. This mitzvah is an ongoing one, and valid even today. Today, too, there are those - driven by a deep-seeded anti-Semitism - who desperately wish to kill us. These are the people whom the Torah commanded us to obliterate, to leave no memory of them." ~ Rabbi Zalman Baruch Melamed

Nachman Abramovic demonized Palestinian children stating: “They may look young to you, but these people are terrorists at heart. Don’t look at their deceptively innocent faces, try to think of the demons inside each of them. I am absolutely certain these people would grow to be evil terrorists if we allowed them to grow. Would you allow them to grow to kill your children or finish them off right now? Honest and moral people ought to differentiate between true humans and human animals. We do kill human animals and we do so unapologetically. Besides, who in the West is in a position to lecture us on killing human animals. After all, whose hands are clean?”

The Jewish people as a whole will become its own Messiah. It will attain world domination by the dissolution of other races, by the abolition of frontiers, the annihilation of monarchy and by the establishment of a world republic in which the Jews will everywhere exercise the privilege of citizenship. In this New World Order, the “children of Israel” will furnish all the leaders without encountering opposition. The governments of the different peoples forming the world republic will fall without difficulty into the hands of the Jews. It will then be possible for the Jewish rulers to abolish private property and everywhere to make use of the resources of the state. Thus will the promise of the Talmud be fulfilled in which it is said that when the Messianic time is come, the Jews will have all the property of the whole world in their hands. ~ Baruch Levy in a letter to Karl Marx.

"An example of the use of the Jewish code words Esau and Jacob is found in a sermon preached by Rabbi Leon Spitz during the Purim observances in 1946 (quoted here from the American Hebrew of March 1, 1946) : "Let Esau whine and wail and protest to the civilized world, and let Jacob raise his hand to fight the good fight. The anti-Semite . . . understands but one language, and he must be dealt with on his own level. The Purim Jews stood up for their lives. American Jews, too. must come to grips with our contemporary anti-Semites. We must fill our jails with anti-Semitic gangsters. We must fill our insane asylums with anti-Semitic lunatics. We must combat every alien. Jew-hater. We must Harass and prosecute our Jew-baiters to the extreme limits of the laws. We must humble and shame our anti-Semitic hoodlums to such an extent that none will wish or dare to become (their) 'fellow-travelers'.

This is what Trotsky, a Jew, was preparing for the Russians for the implementation of Communism, which Marx based on the Babylonian Talmud for Gentiles:
"We should turn Her (Russia) into a desert populated with white Niggers. We will impose upon them such a tyranny that was never dreamt by the most hideous despots of the East. The peculiar trait of that tyranny is that it will be enacted from the left rather than the right and it will be red rather than white in color.
Its color will be red literally because we would spill such torrents of blood that they will pale all human losses of the capitalist wars and make the survivors shudder.

Very soon, every American will be required to register their biological property (that’s you and your children) in a national system designed to keep track of the people and that will operate under the ancient system of pledging. By such methodology, we can compel people to submit to our agenda, which will affect our security as a charge back for our fiat paper currency.
Every American will be forced to register or suffer being able to work and earn a living. They will be our chattels (property) and we will hold the security interest over them forever, by operation of the law merchant under the scheme of secured transactions. Americans, by unknowingly or unwittingly delivering the bills of lading (Birth Certificate) to us will be rendered bankrupt and insolvent, secured by their pledges.
They will be stripped of their rights and given a commercial value designed to make us a profit and they will be none the wiser, for not one man in a million could ever figure our plans and, if by accident one or two should figure it out, we have in our arsenal plausible deniability.
After all, this is the only logical way to fund government, by floating liens and debts to the registrants in the form of benefits and privileges. This will inevitably reap us huge profits beyond our wildest expectations and leave every American a contributor to this fraud, which we will call “Social Insurance.”
Without realizing it, every American will unknowingly be our servant, however begrudgingly. The people will become helpless and without any hope for their redemption and we will employ the high office (presidency) of our dummy corporation (USA) to foment this plot against America.” ~ American traitor, the Jew Edward Mandell House giving a very detailed outline of the New World Order plans that were to be implemented gradually over time to enslave the American people ...

You want to know the ingredients? Don't ask if you don't want to know.

"What you get from repression and what you get from hatred is fury, and fury was one of the main trigger points for the great Van Halen.

To tell you the truth, I got the Jew call. I had an office in the Trade Center where I used to do most of my writing. The call came from former New York mayor Ed Koch. “Al,” he told me, “don’t go to work on the twenty-third day of Elul [September 11, 2001.].”

Tell me, do the evil men of this world have a bad time? They hunt and catch whatever they feel like eating. They don’t suffer from indigestion and are not punished by Heaven. I want Israel to join that club. Maybe the world will then at last begin to fear us…Maybe they will start to tremble, to fear our madness instead of admiring our nobility. Let them tremble, let them call us a mad state. Let them understand that we are a wild country, dangerous to our surroundings, not normal, that we might go crazy, that we might go wild and burn all the oil fields in the Middle East, or that we might start World War Three just like that. ~ Ariel Sharon
