1.3. Since When Have We Known about the Holocaust?
R:Obviously, the definition of the Holocaust that I have given here is only one of
many, and in fact every one of us may see things in a different light, which makes
it difficult, at times, to reach common ground. This is particularly true for our next
topic: When did the world first hear about the Holocaust? The answer will depend
on the definition of this term, and so I will permit myself, at this point, an extension of the definition to which we have just arrived in order to give it a wider
scope.
Let me therefore pose a question: When did the world at large first become aware
of the fact that some six million Jews in central and eastern Europe were either
threatened by death or had already partly been killed? Is there anyone who can answer that question?
L: I am sure that the world knew before the end of the war to some degree what went
on in the territories under German occupation, but no details, nor the extent of the
crimes.
R:But how long have we been talking about the figure of six million victims?
L: I would say that it was only during the Nuremberg trials of 1946 that light was
really shed on this matter.
R:That is the standard view of things, and if considering that an investigation into
what happened in the territories occupied by Germany became possible only after
the war, this seems to be a reasonable assumption. But let’s look into the matter
more deeply.
An analysis of the proceedings of the International Military Tribunal (IMT)5
at
Nuremberg tells us that the figure of six million Jewish victims6 was based neither
on statistical evidence from census data nor on the results of an investigation into
the material evidence connected to the crimes, but merely on hearsay statements
given by two German SS bureaucrats. One of these statements, given by Wilhelm
Höttl7 was produced only in writing; the other, coming from Dieter Wisliceny,
8
was given by him as a witness in court. However, Wisliceny was never cross-examined. Both witnesses assert to have heard the figure of six million mentioned by
Adolf Eichmann, but the latter denied this during his own trial at Jerusalem in
1961.
9
Both Höttl and Wisliceny were originally held in the defendants’ wing of the Nuremberg prison because of their involvement in the mass deportation of Jews to
Auschwitz. Their statements, however, allowed them to be moved to the witnesses’ wing – a life-saving switch in many cases. Whereas Wisliceny and Eichmann
were later tried and hanged, Höttl was never prosecuted, even though he had been
just as active in those deportations. It seems obvious that he was promised leniency for his services, that is to say, for his incriminating testimony, and that the promise was eventually kept, contrary to what happened to Wisliceny. What Höttl
says in his autobiography (Höttl 1997, pp. 77, 412f.), though, where he tries to justify his original statements, clashes with his own earlier statements and makes him
appear a dubious witness (Rudolf 1997a).
L: In other words, Höttl and Wisliceny have tried to save their skins by pleasing the
prosecutors?
R:That is not so easy to say. The only thing that is certain is that the noose was dangling in front of the mental eyes of many prisoners, both in the defendants’ and the
witnesses’ wings of the Nuremberg prison. It is therefore not surprising, for one or
the other to have struck a deal to save his life.
L: Were the witnesses who appeared before the Nuremberg Tribunal also held in the
prison?
R:Yes, at least to the extent that the Allies had an axe to grind with them, i.e. to the
extent that they had themselves been members of an organization regarded as being criminal, such as the German government, German military units, the SA or
the SS, etc. Such witnesses were “forced witnesses” if you like. They could not
decide by themselves whether or not to remain in Nuremberg.
L: That is not very commendable, is it?
R:Quite so. We shall speak later on about the general procedures applying to this and
other trials. But let’s return to those six million. In a monograph on the Nuremberg
Tribunal he published in 1996, David Irving, now black-balled because of his controversial ideas (see Chapter 2.19, p. 139), wondered about some Zionist leaders
who were able, in June 1945 in Washington, D.C. , immediately after the cessation
of hostilities in Europe, to come up with a precise figure for the Jewish victims –
six million, of course – even though it was plainly impossible to do any kind of
census work in the chaotic conditions prevailing in Europe at that time (Irving
1996, p. 61f.).
L: Well, Jewish organizations may have been in touch with local Jewish groups and
had realized that these no longer existed.
R:Possibly. But let me carry on a little further. A year earlier than Irving, the German
historian Joachim Hoffmann, who had worked for decades in the German Federal
Research Office for Military History, noticed that Ilya Ehrenburg, the chief atrocity specialist for the Soviets, had published the figure of six million in the Soviet
foreign-language press as early as December 1944, more than four months before
the war came to an end (J. Hoffmann 2001, pp. 189, 402f.). However, the six-million figure was in Ehrenburg’s mind already earlier than that, as results from a
press release of late November 1944. This press release announced that Ehrenburg
and his co-editor Vasily Grossman were about to publish a book with which they
would document “the German massacre of approximately six million European
Jews” (H. Shapiro 1944). Although the “Black Book” mentioned appeared only
much later (Ehrenburg/Grossmann 1980), the editors must have “known” already
considerably prior to the publication of this press release that six million Jewish
victims were to be bewailed. On May 16, 1944, Zionist activist Rabbi Chaim
Weissmandel, who at that time lived underground in Poland, stated in a letter that
six million Jews of Europe and Russia had been annihilated up to that time
(Dawidowicz 1976, p. 327).
In a war-propaganda article featuring several purely invented atrocity stories, the
Jewish scriptwriter and Zionist propagandist Ben Hecht claimed in early 1943 that
almost a third of the six million Jews threatened by Hitler had already been murdered by that time.
10 A look into the pages of the New York Times shows us that
this was far from being an isolated case, as is borne out by a few quotations (first
quoted by Butz in 1976; 2015, pp. 110-114).
December 13, 1942, p. 21:
“[…] ‘Authenticated reports point to 2,000,000 Jews who have already been
slain by all manner of satanic barbarism, and plans for the total extermination
of all Jews upon whom the Nazis can lay their hands. The slaughter of a third of
the Jewish population in Hitler‘s domain [3×2,000,000=6,000,000] and the
threatened slaughter of all is a holocaust without parallel.’”
March 2, 1943, pp. 1, 4:
[…Rabbi Hertz said] to secure even the freedom to live for 6,000,000 of their
Jewish fellow men by readiness to rescue those who might still escape Nazi torture and butchery. […]”
R:Similar statements can be found in the issues of December 20, 1942, p. 23, March
10, 1943, p. 12, and of April 20, 1943, p. 11.
L: So it was known for a long time that some six million were threatened by extermination. That is not really surprising, for it must have been known how many Jews
were living in the areas that were later occupied by German troops.
R:That is a valuable observation. It would mean that the origin of the figure of six
million was not any kind of factual determination of the number of victims, but rather that is was based on the assumption that all Jews believed to be in the sway of
the Reich were threatened by extermination.
It is not that easy, however. Shortly after the surrender of France, the daily press in
the U.S. published a press release by the Associated Press, for instance. The Palm
Beach Post printed it on June 25, 1940 under the headline “Doom of European
Jews is seen if Hitler wins.” The chairman of the World Jewish Congress Nahum
Goldmann is quoted as having said that “six million Jews in Europe are doomed to
destruction” in case the world makes peace with Hitler. Although in light of subsequent events the opposite would be more accurate, that’s not our topic here. The
six-million figure was mentioned even before the war, hence at a time when Hitler
ruled over only the Jews who were then living in Germany, and when no one
could as yet predict the war and Germany’s initial victories. In 1936, Chaim
Weizmann, then president of the Zionist world organization, appeared before the
Peel Commission, which was envisioning the partitioning of Palestine. In his testimony, Weizmann asserted that six million Jews were living in Europe as if in a
prison and were regarded as undesirable (“The Jewish Case” 1936; Mann 1966, p.
18). Once again, we have the general
totalling-up of all the European Jews,
including those in the Soviet Union. In
1936, one could say that only Germany
and Poland were following a fundamentally anti-Semitic policy, and together those two countries accounted
for some 3½ million Jews. The remaining 2½ million Jews mentioned by
Weizmann certainly did not feel that
they were living in a prison specifically
erected for Jews. The Jews in the Soviet
Union may not have been free, but their
oppression was part of the general policy of the totalitarian regime there, not a
movement directed against them and no
one else.
L: It was still a prison where many different peoples were locked up.
R:I will grant you that, but then this is no
argument for giving the Jews part of
Palestine, and that was after all the
background of Weizmann’s statements
before the Peel Commission. If the oppression of the Jews in the Soviet Union had been sufficient grounds for
conceding them a part of Palestine – i.e.
to take it away from the Arabs living
there – what could the other peoples of
the Soviet Union have claimed for themselves: the Christians, Muslims, Ukrainians, Germans, Georgians, Armenians, Uzbeks, Tadjiks, Mongols, and countless
others? Another part of Palestine? Or other parts of the Arab world?
The fact of the matter is that Weizmann was using this impressive figure of six
million suffering and oppressed Jews in his effort to reach a political goal, a Zionist goal. We also know that, at that time, he failed.
L: Now we are getting away a bit from our original question, because, after all,
Weizmann did not speak of a holocaust or an impending or ongoing extermination. That was said only later, in press accounts during the war.
R:During which war?
L: Excuse me? During the Second World War, of course!
R:That is precisely where you are wrong. In fact, similar accounts were circulated
during the First World War and, in particular, in the immediate postwar period of
WWI.
Many of you are looking at me with astonishment and disbelief. Allow me, therefore, to go a little more deeply into what was happening at that time. I refer to the
results of research done by U.S. author Don Heddesheimer who wrote a book
about this topic. From about 1915 onwards, various American newspapers, especially the New York Times, reported that the Jews in central and eastern Europe in
particular were suffering under the conditions brought about by the war.
Between 1919 and 1927 there were, in the U.S., massive campaigns organized by
Jewish circles to collect money claiming that five or six million Jews in central
and eastern Europe were near death. I will quote a few relevant passages from
those press reports and campaign ads, starting with the latest one (for more examples see Heddesheimer 2017):
New York Times, Nov. 13, 1926, p. 36: “5,000,000 Needy [Jews] in Europe […]
there are 5,000,000 Jews facing starvation in Central and Eastern Europe. […]
Five million Jews are in desperate distress today. […] Men, women, and little
children are suffering and in misery – they are hungry all the time.”
New York Times, Jan. 9, 1922, p. 19: “unspeakable horrors and infinite crimes
perpetrated against the Jewish people. Dr. Hertz declared that 1,000,000 human beings had been butchered and that for three years 3,000,000 persons in
the Ukraine had been made ‘to pass through the horrors of hell’ […].”
L: Is that the same Mr. Hertz you referred to a while ago who claimed on March 2,
1943, in the same newspaper that six million members of the Jewish people were
on the verge of being slaughtered by the Nazis and had to be saved (see p. 25)?
R:Yes, that is the same man.
L: The similarity between the two statements is striking.
R:I shall show you other similarities in a minute. But first, let me produce some quotations from the 1920s and from WWI and the postwar months:
New York Times, May 7, 1920, p. 11: “[…] Jewish war sufferers in Central and
Eastern Europe, where six millions face horrifying conditions of famine, disease and death […].”

The First Holocaust ... Don Heddesheimer pdf

As we all know, roughly six million Jews were killed by National
Socialist Germany during World War II, or so we are told. This genocide is today generally referred to as the Holocaust or the Shoah. But
how do we know that six million Jews lost their lives? And for how
long have we known it?
Whereas it seems that the first question can be answered by demographic research on the Jewish losses during World War Two, the second question has to be directed to historians.
With regard to the first question, while several scholars tried to make
demographic investigations into the question of Jewish population
losses during World War Two – sometimes with quite conflicting results
– it was not until 1991 that a major monograph, published in Germany
by a mainstream publishing house and authored by a group of renowned
authors, addressed this important issue. To nobody’s surprise, the result
of this massive demographic study confirmed what everybody knew
anyway:1
“The bottom line indicates a minimum of 5.29 and a maximum of
just over 6 million [Jewish victims of the Holocaust].”
And even though the six million figure had been called a highly
“symbolic figure,”2
it has now reached almost sacrosanct proportions. It
is clear that the massive social and legal persecution encountered by
everyone in Germany who doubts, denies, or refutes the six million figure3
has resulted in an invisible guideline for this study despite the editor of said tome, Wolfgang Benz, rushing to point out:4
“Of course the purpose of this project also was not to prove any preset figure (‘six million’).”
But considering that the Holy Holocaust is without any doubt the
biggest taboo of our times, is this really a matter of course?
In a comparative analysis of Benz’ study with a major revisionist
analysis of Jewish population losses during World War Two,5
I pointed
out that Benz’ work has so many logical, methodic, and systematic
flaws that its result have to be rejected.6
But if it is true that we do not have a reliable demographic study that
shows without a doubt that six million Jews lost their lives during
World War Two, then why are we confronted with this six million figure? Where does this figure originate? And when was this figure first
propounded?
The late Dr. Joachim Hoffmann was the first mainstream historian
who marveled over this question. In his 1995 study Stalin’s War of Extermination 1941-1945, he pointed out that the chief Soviet atrocity
propagandist, Ilya Ehrenburg, had publicized the six-million-figure in the
Soviet foreign press as early as January 4, 1945, i.e., fully four months before the war’s end.7
At that time, no demographic figures could have
been available to him. Just a year later, British Historian David Irving
emphasized that as early as June 1945, in other words immediately after
the end of hostilities in Europe, some Zionist leaders claimed to be able to
provide the precise number of Jewish victims – six million, of course –
even though the chaos reigning in Europe at that time rendered any
demographic studies impossible.8
Revisionist scholars, on the other hand, have long pondered about the
origin of the six million figure, the most famous and thorough research
stemming from Prof. Dr. Arthur Butz in his epochal work The Hoax of the
Twentieth Century.
9
While analyzing a large amount of New York Times
articles on the persecution of Jews in German dominated Europe during
World War Two, Butz found several articles which clearly indicate that
as early as late 1942/early 1943, Jewish lobbying groups within the
United States were already anticipating a total loss of five to six million
Jews at war’s end. Some of these articles I would like to briefly quote
here, taken from Butz’ book:
NYT, June 30, 1942, p. 7:
“1,000,000 Jews Slain By Nazis, Report Says”10
NYT, September 3, 1942, p. 5:
“A European observer said the Germans planned to exterminate the
Jews not only in Europe, but throughout the world. He declared the Nazis had executed 2,000,000 Jews in the past three years.”11
NYT, December 13, 1942, p. 21:
“[…] ‘Authenticated reports point to 2,000,000 Jews who have already been slain by all manner of satanic barbarism, and plans for the
total extermination of all Jews upon whom the Nazis can lay their
hands. The slaughter of a third of the Jewish population in Hitler’s domain [3×2,000,000=6,000,000] and the threatened slaughter of all is a
holocaust without parallel.’”12
NYT, December 20, 1942, p. 23:
“What is happening to the 5,000,000 Jews of German-held Europe,
all of whom face extermination […].
Early in December 1942 the State Department in Washington gave
some figures showing that the number of Jewish victims deported and
perished since 1939 in Axis-controlled Europe now reached the appalling figure of 2,000,000 and that 5,000,000 were in danger of extermination.”13
NYT, March 2, 1943, pp. 1, 4:
“Immediate action by the United Nations to save as many as possible of the five million Jews threatened with extermination […] was demanded at a mass demonstration […] in Madison Square Garden last
night.
[…Rabbi Hertz said] ‘appalling is the fact that those who proclaim
the Four Freedoms have so far done very little to secure even the freedom to live for 6,000,000 of their Jewish fellow men by readiness to
rescue those who might still escape Nazi torture and butchery. […]’”14
NYT, March 10, 1943, p. 12:
“Forty thousand persons listened and watched […] last night to two
performances of ‘We Will Never Die,’ a dramatic mass memorial to the
2,000,000 Jews killed in Europe. […] The narrator said ‘There will be
Thus, Butz concludes in his book:16
“Another point that should be made here […] is that the six million
figure had its origin apparently in the propaganda of 1942-1943.”
Butz also shows that the origins of these articles were Jewish-Zionist
pressure groups like the World Jewish Congress and the American Jewish Congress. Initially, their claims were not taken seriously in Washington, until Henry Morgenthau of the Treasury department managed to
reduce the influence of the State Department on official U.S. politics.17
But even Butz’ farsighted approach was still a little short. Let me
first go back in time six more years. On November 25, 1936, Chaim
Weizmann, president of the World Zionist Organization, testified in front
of the Peel Commission, which was formed as a reaction of violent
clashes between Jews and Arabs in Palestine and which finally decided to
divide Palestine into a Jewish and an Arab State. In his speech, Weizmann
said:18
“It is no exaggeration to say that six million Jews are sentenced to
be imprisoned in this part of the world, where they are unwanted, and
for whom the countries are divided into those, where they are unwanted, and those, where they are not admitted.”

Did Six Million Really Die ..Harwood ..excerpts ..full pdf

Introduction
Of course, atrocity propaganda is nothing new. It has accompanied every conflict of the
20th century and doubtless will continue to do so. During the First World War, the
Germans were actually accused of eating Belgian babies, as well as delighting to throw
them in the air and transfix them on bayonets. The British also alleged that the German
forces were operating a "Corpse Factory," in which they boiled down the bodies of their
own dead in order to obtain glycerine and other commodities, a calculated insult to the
honour of an Imperial army. After the war, however, came the retractions; indeed, a
public statement was made by the Foreign Secretary in the House of Commons
apologising for the insults to German honour, which were admitted to be war-time
propaganda.
No such statements have been made after the Second World War. In fact, rather than
diminish with the passage of years, the atrocity propaganda concerning the German
occupation, and in particular their treatment of the Jews, has done nothing but increase
its virulence, and elaborate its catalogue of horrors. Gruesome paperback books with
lurid covers continue to roll from the presses, adding continuously to a growing
mythology of the concentration camps and especially to the story that no less than Six
Million Jews were exterminated in them. The ensuing pages will reveal this claim to be
the most colossal piece of fiction and the most successful of deceptions; but here an
attempt may be made to answer an important question: What has rendered the atrocity
stories of the Second World War so uniquely different from those of the First? Why were
the latter retracted while the former are reiterated louder than ever? Is it possible that
the story of the Six Million Jews is serving a political purpose, even that it is a form of
political blackmail?
So far as the Jewish people themselves are concerned, the deception has been an
incalculable benefit. Every conceivable race and nationality had its share of suffering in
the Second World War, but none has so successfully elaborated it and turned it to such
great advantage. The alleged extent of their persecution quickly aroused sympathy for
the Jewish national homeland they had sought for so long; after the War the British
Government did little to prevent Jewish emigration to Palestine which they had declared
illegal, and it was not long afterwards that the Zionists wrested ftom the Government the
land of Palestine and created their haven from persecution, the State of Israel. Indeed, it
is a remarkable fact that the Jewish people emerged from the Second World War as
nothing less than a triumphant minority. Dr. Max Nussbaum, the former chief rabbi of
the Jewish community in Berlin, stated on April 11, 1953: "The position the Jewish
people occupy today in the world — despite the enormous losses — is ten times
stronger than what it was twenty years ago." It should be added, if one is to be honest,
that this strength has been much consolidated financially by the supposed massacre of
the Six Million, undoubtedly the most profitable atrocity allegation of all time. To date,
the staggering figure of six thousand million pounds has been paid out in compensation
by the Federal Government of West Germany, mostly to the State of Israel (which did
not even exist during the Second World War), as well as to individual Jewish claimants.
DISCOURAGEMENT OF NATIONALISM
In terms of political blackmail, however, the allegation that Six Million Jews died during
the Second World War has much more far-reaching implications for the people of Britain
and Europe than simply the advantages it has gained for the Jewish nation. And here
one comes to the crux of the question: Why the Big Lie? What is its purpose? In the first
place, it has been used quite unscrupulously to discourage any form of nationalism.
Should the people of Britain or any other European country attempt to assert their
patriotism and preserve their national integrity in an age when the very existence of
nation-states is threatened, they are immediately branded as "neo-Nazis". Because, of
course, Nazism was nationalism, and we all know what happened then — Six Million
Jews were exterminated! So long as the myth is perpetuated, peoples everywhere will
remain in bondage to it; the need for international tolerance and understanding will be
hammered home by the United Nations until nationhood itself, the very guarantee of
freedom, is abolished.
A classic example of the use of the 'Six Million' as an anti-national weapon appears in
Manvell and Frankl's book, The Incomparable Crime (London, 1967), which deals with
'Genocide in the Twentieth Century.' Anyone with a pride in being British will be
somewhat surprised by the vicious attack made on the British Empire in this book. The
authors quote Pandit Nehru, who wrote the following while in a British prison in India:
"Since Hitler emerged from obscurity and became the Führer of Germany, we have
heard a great deal about racialism and the Nazi theory of the 'Herrenvolk' … But we in
India have known racialism in all its forms ever since the commencement of British rule.
The whole ideology of this rule was that of the 'Herrenvolk' and the master race … India
as a nation and Indians as individuals were subjected to insult, humiliation and
contemptuous treatment. The English were an imperial race, we were told, with the
God-given right to govern us and keep us in subjection; if we protested we were
reminded of the 'tiger qualities of an imperial race'." The authors Manvell and Frankl
then go on to make the point perfectly clear for us: "The white races of Europe and
America," they write, "have become used during centuries to regarding themselves as a
'Herrenvolk.' The twentieth century, the century of Auschwitz, has also achieved the first
stage in the recognition of multi-racial partnership." (ibid., p .14)
THE RACE PROBLEM SUPPRESSED
One could scarcely miss the object of this diatribe, with its insiduous hint about "multiracial partnership." Thus the accusation of the Six Million is not only used to undermine
the principle of nationhood and national pride, but it threatens the survival of the Race
itself. It is wielded over the heads of the populace, rather as the threat of hellfire and
damnation was in the Middle Ages. Many countries of the Anglo-Saxon world, notably
Britain and America, are today facing the gravest danger in their history, the danger
posed by the alien races in their midst. Unless something is done in Britain to halt the
immigration and assimilation of Africans and Asians into our country, we are faced in
the near future, quite apart from the bloodshed of racial conflict, with the biological
alteration and destruction of the British people as they have existed here since the
coming of the Saxons. In short, we are threatened with the irrecoverable loss of our
European culture and racial heritage. But what happens if a man dares to speak of the
race problem, of its biological and political implications? He is branded as that most
heinous of creatures, a "racialist." And what is racialism, of course, but the very
hallmark of the Nazi! They (so everyone is told, anyway) murdered Six Million Jews
because of racialism, so it must be a very evil thing indeed. When Enoch Powell drew
attention to the dangers posed by coloured immigration into Britain in one of his early
speeches, a certain prominent Socialist raised the spectre of Dachau and Auschwitz to
silence his presumption.
Thus any rational discussion of the problems of Race and the effort to preserve racial
integrity is effectively discouraged. No one could have anything but admiration for the
way in which the Jews have sought to preserve their race through so many centuries,
and continue to do so today. In this effort they have frankly been assisted by the story of
the Six .Million, which, almost like a religious myth, has stressed the need for greater
Jewish racial solidarity. Unfortunately, it has worked in quite the opposite way for all
other peoples, rendering them impotent in the struggle for self-preservation.
The aim in the following pages is quite simply to tell the Truth. The distinguished
American historian Harry Elmer Barnes once wrote that "An attempt to make a
competent, objective and truthful investigation of the extermination question … is surely
the most precarious venture that an historian or demographer could undertake today."
In attempting this precarious task, it is hoped to make some contribution, not only to
historical truth, but towards lifting the burden of a lie from our own shoulders, so that we
may freely confront the dangers which threaten us all.

Take the Anti-Semitism Test

Jewish Press ... 2017 You Think There is No anti-Semitism? Take the anti-Zionist Test By David Collier - 16 Adar 5777 – March 14, 2017 0 Share on Facebook Tweet on Twitter tweet Photo Credit: freepik.com {Originally posted to the author’s website, Beyond the Great Divide} This is designed for people who think there is no anti-Semitism in the anti-Zionist, anti-Israel movements. If you know any, ask them to take the test. Before you begin. Imagine: Someone you are connected to continually posts racist memes and comments on Facebook. On his time stream are constant references to racial slurs, using words and phrases that are unacceptable in society. Viscous, vile, offensive posts that draw on awful stereotypes and link back to white supremacy websites. What would you do when you saw them? I hope, as an anti-racist, you would delete him from your friends list or at least confront them about their offensive views. You may now begin the anti-Zionist test. When you have finished, please pass it on to your friends, or other anti-Israel protesters you know. THE ANTI-ZIONIST TEST A few days ago, I posted the result of an investigation into antisemitism inside Palestinian activism in the UK. Since its release, I have received abuse and threats. Some of the more measured criticism has been absurdly to throw the line that ‘anti-Zionism’ is nothing to do with antisemitism. So, I have designed a test to assist in measuring the level of ‘neo-Nazi’ antisemitism ‘IN YOUR ONLINE ENVIRONMENT’. anti-Zionist test part oneThe test starts with an easy exercise in identifying blatant antisemitism. Do you consider any of these comments to be antisemitic? The Jews were behind 9/11 The holocaust is the biggest myth of our time Charlie Hebdo was a false flag carried out by Mossad to make Jews go to Israel Ashkenazi Jews are all fake Jews Kristallnacht was instigated by Jews to promote War against Germany Babylonian Talmud advocates sex with child age three Israel kills people to harvest their organs The answer to this question is ‘all of the above’ and there is little ambiguity here. Israel’s conflict with the Palestinians has nothing to do with any of the above statements. If you have been answering no to the examples above, then you hold blatant antisemitic views and you do not have to participate any further in this anti-Zionist test. If however you answered ‘yes’, then please continue: part two Anti-Zionist testPlease access your Facebook account.Enter each of these words / phrases in turn into the Facebook search bar. Then, by using the left hand menu, filter each of the results to see only posts on the subject made by ‘your friends’ or ‘your friends and groups’: search Mossad Khazar Isis Israel 9/11 Paris False flag Organ trafficking Holocaust Scan the results of each of these words in turn. Your are looking for posts concerning global conspiracy, blood libel or holocaust denial. In this context, use of the word ‘Zionist’ is clearly misplaced. At this stage you can be inventive, mix words, use others connected to historical Jew hatred. Given the research I released last week, your activeness within the anti-Israel organisations is likely to influence the results you see. The more active you are in anti-Israel activity, the more antisemitic posts you are likely to see. If you are highly active and you engage in street protest, your search request will probably be inundate you with antisemitic posts. These are the types of images you are looking for: antisemitic facebook These are only a handful of examples, and I found thousands of related images when doing research into people who claim they are humanitarian, pro-equality and anti-racist. You should be highlighting any posts that imply the mossad / Jews / Israel are connected to some type of global control, conspiracy theory, blood libel or anything that is denying the holocaust. The websites these people link to hard core antisemitic websites. These are just some of the websites that you ought to be looking for: (I am not providing hyperlinks because many of these sites are considered not safe for work). These are not ‘humanitarian’, ‘universalist’ websites who are based on sympathy for Palestinians, but rather ‘neo-Nazi’ sites that push white supremacy, Jewish control and conspiracy theories. Again, these are just some examples: www.solargeneral.org www.mycatbirdseat.com www.redressonline.com www.ihr.org www.dailystormer.com 911 truth websites www.davidduke.com www.theoccidentalobserver.net www.stormfront.org www.vnnforum.com www.theuglytruth.wordpress.com www.veteranstoday.com anti-Zionist test part 3This is a simple exercise. Check your friends list and look for someone who has made this or a similar edit to his Facebook profile picture: truth 9/11 (Note how the Free Palestine flag takes center stage in ‘9/11 truth’ conspiracy theory). Not everyone who pushes 9/11 conspiracy theory is an antisemite, but most of the websites that support the conspiracy theories have tied it back into hard core Jewish global control. As an example, if they are using a version of this profile picture, for them anti-Zionist, is about engaging with a website that thinks Jews control America and Israel is behind both 9/11 and Charlie Hebdo. anti-Zionist test part fourI am quite confident that if you are engaged heavily in anti-Israel discussion, and have dealt with this test sincerely, then you are now fully aware that hard core antisemitism exists even within your own social media circle. A few final questions: Have you deleted any of your friends? Were you surprised at how many you found? How did /would you approach the subject if you confronted them? Did you just excuse it, push it all to one side? If the posts had referred to classic anti-black racism, would you have treated it the same way? Given the history of Jews and antisemitism, imagine a state of Jews. How do you think this state would be viewed by those who hate Jews? As I know how much antisemitism exists on the anti-Israel social media networks, there is clearly something ‘more acceptable’ within left wing groups about antisemitism when compared to other hatreds. Surely this has to change? You can sympathise with Palestinians, without associating with those that hate Jews. Can’t you? Thank you for participating in this anti-Zionist test. Please pass this test on to your friends.
