BLAME everything on the JEWS!!

THE NEW JERUSALEM
The City Besieged

"I have a premonition that will not leave me. As it goes with
Israel so will it go with all of us. Should Israel perish the
holocaust will be upon us."

-Eric Hoffer, Los Angeles Times (May 26,1968)


In 2009 Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel, took to
the podium of the UN General Assembly and observed that he was
speaking just a few days after the president of Iran had claimed
that the Holocaust was a lie. Mr. Netanyahu then explained that
he'd recently visited a villa in Wannsee, a suburb of Berlin, and
been shown the minutes of a meeting held there on January 20,
1942, at which senior German officials formulated precisely their
plan for the extermination of the Jews. "Here is a copy of those
minutes,' the Prime Minister told the UN. "Is this a lie?"'
The day before, he'd been given another photocopy-this time of
the original construction plans, signed by Heinrich Himmler, for
the AuschwitzBirkenau concentration camp, wherein one million
Jews would be killed. "Here is a copy of the plans," Mr.
Netanyahu said to the assembled ranks of world leaders. "Is this
too a lie?"

And so at the dawn of the twenty-first century, one head of
government holds up the documents for the "Final Solution" to
"the Jewish problem" because another head of government insists,
repeatedly, that no such event ever took place. This is the state
to which the United Nations has fallen after six decades posing
as Lord Tennyson's Parliament of Man: a sane man is obliged to
prove to lunatics that the Holocaust actually happened.

One sympathizes with the Israeli Prime Minister, reduced, seventy
years after Neville Chamberlain, to standing before the world
waving pieces of paper from Herr Hitler. But he's missing the
point. Ahmadinejad & Company aren't Holocaust deniers because of
the dearth of historical documentation. They deny it because they
can, and because it suits their own interests to do so, and
because, in the regimes they represent, the state lies to its
people as a matter of course and to such a degree that there is
no longer an objective reality, only a self-constructed one.
And once you're in the business of constructing your own reality,
even internal logic is not required. In Iran, many of the same
people who deny the first Holocaust are planning the second one.
Elsewhere in the Muslim world, I've run into folks who
simultaneously believe (a) that there was no Muslim involvement
in the attacks of September 11, and (b) it was a tremendous
victory for the Muslim people. Incidentally, by "the Muslim
world," I don't just mean the Middle East: according to one poll,
only 17 percent of British Muslims believe there was any Arab
involvement in 9/11, and a majority of British Muslims - 56
percent believe there was no Arab involvement. And yet many
British Muslims have marched in the streets under posters hailing
the "Magnificent Nineteen" who carried out the attacks.
So we already live in a world in which there is insufficient
agreed reality. After America, there will be even less. To be
sure, whatever the president of Iran might believe, there are
plenty of fellows, even at the UN General Assembly, who
understand that, yes, Auschwitz was built and, yes, many Jews
died there. EU prime ministers ostentatiously participating in
the annual Holocaust Memorial Day observances are certainly
aware. Yet even they felt it was not, in diplomatic-speak,
helpful for Mr. Netanyahu to belabor the point with President
Ahmadinejad. The New York Times offered an online analysis in its
dull blog, the Lede: dredging up the Holocaust business was a bit
of artful misdirection from the hardline Netanyahu. As Robert
Mackey explained, "his decision to engage so passionately with
Iran's president ... helped to change the subject from a
conversation that presents difficulties for Israel's leader - how
to make peace with Palestinians without alienating his
supporters."

Ah, so that's why he did it. The whole heads-of-state-who-deny-
the-Holocaust thing was a cunning distraction by the Zionist
Entity.

During Israel's famously "disproportionate" 2006 incursion into
Lebanon, a reader reminded me of an old gag:

One day the UN Secretary General proposes that, in the interest
of global peace and harmony, the world's soccer players should
come together and form one United Nations global soccer team.
"Great idea," says his deputy. "Er, but who would we play?"
"Israel, of course."

Ha-ha. It always had a grain of truth, now it's the whole loaf.
Think of how the Prime Minister of Israel feels at the UN. And
then picture what's left of the United States after global
eclipse. Obama and the leftists notwithstanding, the effect of
American retreat from superpower status will not be a quiet life
but a future as the Zionist Entity writ large - no longer the
Great Satan, but forever the Great Scapegoat. As Richard Ingrams
wrote in Britain's Observer the weekend after 9/11:
Who will dare to damn Israel?

Hey, take a number and get in line. Who won't dare to damn
Israel? And for whatever bugs you. In late 2010, there was a
series of shark attacks in the Red Sea off the Egyptian resort of
Sharm el-Sheikhs. On an official Egyptian government news site,
the governor of South Sinai, Mohamed Abdel Fadil Shousha,
speculated that the fatal attacks in the hitherto peaceful waters
were due to "the Mossad throwing in the deadly shark to hit
tourism in Egypt." Other sources wondered if the Mossad had gone
further and equipped the aquatic predators with GPS. Could be.
Governor Shousha has undoubtedly seen the famous Hollywood film
about a killer shark terrorizing a beach resort Jews. Oh, c'mon,
you're not gonna let a one-vowel typing error in the poster throw
you off what it's really about, are you? Directed by the same
infidel who made Schindler's List, if you get my drift.

The Governor of South Sinai is not the only political colossus to
take the view that the world's troubles are due to a tiny strip
of land that at its narrowest point is barely wider than my New
Hampshire township. Only a few months before the shark attacks,
Bill Clinton had been in Egypt and told an audience of local
"businessmen" that solving the Israeli/Palestinian problem would
"take away about half the impetus for terror in the whole world."
Only 50 percent of global terrorism is all down to Israel? Are
you sure you're not underestimating?

In rationalizing the irrational, you not only legitimize it but
create a self-fulfilling prophecy. After the Bali nightclub
bombings in 2002, Bruce Haigh, a retired Australia diplomat who'd
served in Indonesia, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia, went on TV and
explained why hundreds of his compatriots had been blown up: "The
root cause of this issue has been America's backing of Israel on
Palestine."

So we're conceding that if a fellow in Indonesia is "frustrated"
by Israeli "intransigence," then blowing up Australian tourists,
Scandinavian backpackers, and German stoners in Bali makes some
kind of sense. For centuries, Jews were the handiest scapegoat in
every two-bit duchy and principality across the map. In essence,
the argument of Bill Clinton & Company simply affirms the ancient
paranoia that the Jews are behind everything.

There is an element of humbug about all this. Just as Europe's
rulers, while happy to pander to anti-American sentiment among
the citizenry, are well aware that the United States has been the
guarantor of the Continent's liberty since 1945, so Araby's
rulers, happy to pander to their subjects' Judenhass in public,
are privately rather appreciative of the Zionist Entity.

Diplomatic cables leaked in 2010 revealed that King Abdullah of
Saudi Arabia was publicly urging the bombing of Iran's nuclear
facilities, and had even indicated to the Israelis that come the
big night he'd make sure his kingdom's radar facilities were
switched off so nobody could tip off Teheran. Were Israel to take
up his offer, His Majesty would be the first in a long parade of
Arab potentates and European foreign ministers lining up to
denounce Zionist "disproportion." But it's heartening to know
that, whatever lunacies they subscribe to in public, both Arabs
and Europeans retain a few residual marbles in private.

Not all the scapegoaters are nuts, maybe not even the governor of
South Sinai. Maybe he's just tossing a little red meat, a little
shark bait to the Jew hate crowd. But from Sharm al-Sheikh to the
UN General Assembly, sane men find it politic to string along
with the loons.

As the proverbial canary in the coal mine, Israel knows what
America's in for. Like the United States, it is militarily
superior to its enemies. If it were merely a matter of weaponry,
they would have won decades ago. But, if that's all there is to
it, where's the U.S. victory parade in Afghanistan? The
Palestinians were among the first to realize that, in a media
age, you can win on other battlefields. Stone-throwing youths
have won more victories for Palestine - at least in the European
press and on North American campuses - than the Egyptian, Syrian,
and Jordanian armies ever did.

AND INDEED IT SO GOES AND HAS GONE FOR DECADES NOW - BLAME
EVERYTHING ON THE JEWS. AND THE COMING BEAST ROMAN/BABYLON OF
EUROPE WILL IN THE END BLAME EVERYTHING ON THE JEWS ONCE MORE AND
THEIR PARTENERS THE USA AND THE BRITISH COMMONWEALTH, AND THE YET
TO COME UNION OF ARAB NATION. THIS BEAST POWER OF EUROPE WILL
ATTACK THE AFOREMENTIONED AND RULE THE WESTERN WORLD WITH A ROD
OF IRON. WE SHALL THEN BE IN THE LAST 42 MONTHS OF THIS AGE AND
THE 95 PERCENT PROPHECIES OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION. BUT JESUS
WILL RETURN AND PUT AN END TO THE CRAZY IDEAS OF MEN. THE AGE TO
COME WILL COME, WHERE THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD WILL RULE THIS
EARTH.
