Midas Ears

By Israel Shamir

A new spectre haunts America. It enters the well-protected boardrooms of

newspapers and banks, shakes the deep foundations of its towers. It is the

spectre of glasnost: the dark secret of Jewish power is out. Just recently it

was 'third rail', touch-and-die, deadly dangerous to mention, certain end to

a career. Just recently, Joe Public snapped his TV from an eminence with an

Israeli passport to a member of a Jewish think-tank, and muttered to himself:

Surely it is just a coincidence that so many important and largely unelected

people in our country happen to belong to this small minority group. Surely

it is just a coincidence that they belong to different parties but reach the

same conclusions. Surely it is just a coincidence that ninety per cent of

American foreign aid goes to their cousins in prosperous Tel Aviv. Surely it

is just a coincidence that they run our newspapers, television, cinema,

universities. Anyway, we are not allowed to notice this elephant in our

sitting room.

Only rare desperados comment, as Edgar Steele did on Rense.com: "The silence

in America concerning Jews is simply deafening, isn't it? The old adage has

it that, when visiting a foreign country, to ascertain who really runs

things, one need determine only who is spoken about in whispers, if at all."

Judged by this measure, the Jews rule supreme. Indeed, when I referred to

'Jewish media lords' during a UNESCO conference in the summer of 2001, the

audience's hearts missed a beat.

The yet-unfought War on Iraq changed this. The American Ultimatum date was

set on 17 March, the Jewish feast of Purim. Purim, 1991 saw destruction of

Iraqi armies and death of 200,000 Iraqis. Too many coincidences for a purely

American war. The Americans peeped into the bottomless abyss of World War

Three and woke up from their generation-long stupor. Thus the first victim of

the Iraqi War is not truth, but the strongest taboo in the West. A Democrat

member of Congress, usually a most docile specimen, one James Moran, dared to

tell his supporters: "If it were not for the strong support of the Jewish

community for this war with Iraq we would not be doing this."

He was immediately slapped by a Jewish overseer: "It is simply stunning to

hear Representative Moran make such accusations", said National Jewish

Democratic Council Executive Director, Ira N. Forman. "First, a number of the

current leaders of the anti-war movement are Jewish, and Jewish organizations

have clearly not been at the forefront among those groups actively and

stridently supporting a war in Iraq". Forman had spoken, and the media

reported and amplified his view, and Moran duly recanted, slapped. But he is

not the only one.

The secret is out, and like the secret of King Midas and his long ears, it is

being sung now from coast to coast, despite the frantic efforts of the

organised Jewish community to clamp the lid back on the boiling cauldron.

Kathleen and Bill Christison, two ex-CIA experts, exposed the link between

right-wing American Jews and the Bush Administration. Edward Said, the most

celebrated American thinker of Palestinian origin, stated the cause: "An

immensely wealthy and powerful republic has been hijacked by a small cabal of

individuals, all of them unelected and therefore unresponsive to public

pressure."[ii]

He was seconded by courageous Herman, Neumann and Blankfort. These Americans

of Jewish origin object to the un-elected, anti-democratic Jewish power as

they would object to any disproportionate minority power. Their presence, as

they were not afraid of the anti-Semitic label, was instrumental in turning

the tide and saving the intimidated majority from its browbeating.

Edward Herman, the author of Manufacturing Consent (together with Noam

Chomsky), wrote of "the powerful pro-Israel lobby in the United States, which

advances Israeli interests by pushing for U.S. aid and protection to Israel,

and, currently, by pressing for a war against Iraq, which again will serve

Israeli interests. This lobby has not only helped control media debate and

made congress into `Israeli occupied territory', it has seen to it that

numerous officials with 'dual loyalties' occupy strategic decision-making

positions in the Bush administration."

Jeffrey Blankfort, the Californian who defeated ADL in court and made Foxman

pay heaps of dollars for his espionage against activists, took an important

next step and rejected the views upheld by Noam Chomsky, Joel Beinin and

Stephen Zunes, for these older radicals play down the crucial importance of

Jewish power. Jeff Blankfort noticed the roots of the Rupture Evangelicals'

meteoric rise in the US. This obscure sect would never have left its lair in

remote Dixie, but for the Jewish media lords. Jeff noticed that when Black

Entertainment Television was taken over by Viacom, whose owner, Sumner

Redstone (né Murray Rothstein), was recently described in the New York Times

as the world's biggest media owner, he eliminated BET's news program and

began running evangelical Christian infomercials for Israel. Blankfort's list

of 'Jews in media'[iii] enables an understanding of the secret of Jewish

charm, and it can be compared with a similar extensive list by Prof. Kevin

MacDonald of California State University.

The Iraqi War, and even more its linkage with Palestine, became the litmus

test of Jewish power. Organised Jewry pushed for war and at the same time

denied its involvement. Thus in New York City, the City Council rejected an

anti-war resolution, and only 12 of its 51 members were for it. This is not

strange for heavily Jewish New York. Indeed, a Democrat, Rep. Robert Jackson,

said it in a most straightforward way: "New York City is the home away from

home for most Jews; and many members of the Jewish community think [the war

is] in the best interests of the state of Israel." According to Jackson,

several of his council colleagues have been intimidated into silence by the

pro-Israel crowd: "People are not talking about this."

Jackson was certainly right, but a Jewish newspaper[iv] (surprisingly or not,

all newspapers in the New York area are Jewish) condemned him for . racism:

"[He claimed that] not only do the Jews run New York City, but they've cowed

their opponents into silence. Jackson could as well call New York Hymietown."

This response is remarkable for its typically Jewish logic. First, the

opponent's rational argument is perverted and distorted, then it is aligned

with opprobrium; and at the last stage, the opponent is destroyed forever.

That is one of the secrets of Jewish might: the Jews enter a dialogue

berserk-like, with great vehemence, quite foreign to the Socratic style.

While sane people are satisfied with quoting their opponent and fighting his

arguments, madmen (for berserk is a temporarily-mad individual) go for the

jugular.

David Mamet, the Jewish American playwright, provides a good example of this

vehemence as he notices a "Volvo of old, the vehicle of my brethren, the

congenitally liberal. It was festooned, as are its kind, with every sort of

correct exhortation: Save James Bay, Honour Diversity, and so on. A most

interesting bumper sticker read: Israel Out of the Settlements . a slogan

which could best be translated as Hook-nosed Jews Die".

I wonder why Mamet stopped at this, for with equal adequacy the slogan can be

translated as Torture Babies, Denounce America and Burn Apple Pie. Who cares

for the form of the Jewish nose? Mel Brooks noticed long ago that Jewish

girls have the cutest noses, made by the best plastic surgeons.

It is the racist Jewish policies in occupied Palestine that annoy good,

'congenitally liberal' people. But if Mamet were honest, he would not be

Mamet.

Now, Bill Keller of the NY Times read the Riot Act to the Americans. He

kindly allows that 'most of the big Jewish organizations and many donors are

backing the war' but insists that 'the idea that Israel's interests are

driving one of the most momentous shifts in America's foreign policy is

simple-minded and offensive'. Well, Keller is certainly being paid for his

convictions by a Jewish media lord, and one of the nastiest, Arthur

Sulzberger Jr, the owner of the NY Times, the Boston Globe and a host of

other publications. This undermines the possible veracity of Keller's words.

Let something similar be written in a thoroughly non-Jewish newspaper! But

alas, there are no important media outlets in the US that are not owned or

controlled by Jews .

Surely a coincidence? Do not bet on it. A few days ago, in the Hebrew

University of Jerusalem, an important all-Jewish conference on anti-Semitism

took place under the auspicious aegis of the Sasson Centre. The talk given by

the French Jewish historian Simcha Epstein dealt with pre-war France but

pertained more immediately to America. This is what Epstein said:

"The pre-war anti-Semites said that the Jews of France organized a syndicate

secretly bankrolling and subverting the press. And what did the Jews say at

that time? They said: 'Of course not! No, it's a lie, of course not! We are

not engaged in conspiracies!' And what did the historians and the Jewish

historiography coming afterwards say? 'Of course not! It is anti-Semitic

drivel!' But we know now from Jewish sources that before the WWII the Jews of

France secretly financed the press.

"Since the end of 19th century, there was a secret Jewish organization, well

financed, which bought and bankrolled newspapers. Sometimes it took over

existing newspapers, which suddenly became pro-Dreifus because they received

Jewish subsidies. New papers were created especially by the Jews. Two very

important papers of the period, one was called Les Droits de l'Homme, the

Rights of Man, was financed by the Jews, and L'Humanité, which was the

Socialist and then the Communist newspaper of France, was also financed by

Jews. I say this on the authority Jewish sources of course.

"And this brings us to a dramatic dilemma of historiography. Saying this,

saying what I said, is something horrible and unacceptable, because it means

that the Jews organized a conspiracy and secretly bought the media, or part

of the media. That was precisely what the anti-Semites said at that time, and

what they still say today. And we know now from Jewish sources that the

allegations were true, that there was a Jewish clandestine activity of

bankrolling the press." End of quote.

Some people perceive every suggestion that Jews are able to act together as a

mad conspiracy theory. Let them read and re-read this report by a Jewish

historian made at a Jewish conference. If it is proven now beyond any

reasonable doubt that the Jews of France secretly bought and subverted French

media for many years in order to distort the national discourse and

eventually push unprepared France into the horrible and unneeded World War

Two, is it impossible to consider that the Jews of the US have secretly taken

over their national media and are now pushing the US into a horrible and

unneeded World War Three?

Actually there is no need for secrecy. One of the chief Zionist ideologists,

Zeev Hefetz (ex-spokesman of PM Begin), wrote in an American daily:

"Disarming Iraq is only a start in Middle East" as "the Arab and Iranian

(sic!) cultures" are "irrational" and that nothing can be done, short of war,

to "improve the collective mental health of Arab societies". [v]Certainly

this massive 'disarmament' will be carried out by American soldiers, though

the commands will be given by the Jewish chicken-hawks roosting in Pentagon.

As for reasons for the war, they were eloquently stated by a keynote speaker

at a conference on anti-Semitism by Yehuda Bauer, the director of the

Holocaust Memorial Institute Yad va-Shem in Jerusalem:

The Jews are not a nation, neither a religion, he said. They are a

civilisation, and they have their civilising mission. They cannot tolerate

the competing civilisation of Islam, as they could not tolerate Christendom

or Communism. That is why the war with Islam is unavoidable.

But the war is avoidable. Even today, at minutes before H-hour, the war is

avoidable. And if fire is unavoidable, let the Jewish advisers of President

Bush be fired. Let this Purim see the great Exodus of the "Wolfowitz Cabal"

from the Pentagon. Excluding the clinical possibility of his actual

zombification, G W Bush should be able to understand that he has been misled

by this powerful, un-elected minority. They cannot deliver what they

promised. Moreover, their own days at the helm of the Republic are numbered.

They over-estimated their abilities, and pushed too hard. As the frog of La

Fontaine, they can blow up. Bush still can do a U-turn, and save himself and

his country.

In a way, today's America reminds of Russia in 1986, at the beginning of

glasnost. After the Soviet citizens were allowed to learn who rules them and

how, the days of the Soviet regime were counted. Glasnost gave place to

perestroika. Now, for the first time in a generation, Americans are allowed

to see the men in power, the toxic combination of the Right-Wing Democrats of

Lieberman, the Republican neo-liberals, the Neo-Cons and plain Con-men. The

Iraqi War brought them forward and presented them in clear light. Now is the

time to undo their hold.

It can't be postponed for the divisive presidency of G W Bush is perceived as

the period of 'White' Protestant Anglo-Saxon rule, despite the prevalence of

his Jewish advisers. All available contenders for the next elections -

Lieberman, Kelly and even Kuchinich - claim their Jewish connections and

declare their undivided loyalty to Jewry and to the state of Israel. In the

present political setup of America, there will be no real alternative to

Jewish ascendancy. If Bush flops, it will be construed by the media as a WASP

flop. If he succeeds, it will be seen as success of his Jewish advisers.

That is why American patriot forces should not wait for the next elections,

or for the end of war. They must act now, by calling the war off. They have

an enemy, but he is not in Iraq. What is called for is a new American

revolution, on a par with the New Deal and abolition of slavery, with

de-monopolisation of the discourse; that is of media and universities, for

starters. In the beginning of the Twentieth Century, Americans undid the

mighty Standard Oil. They created new anti-monopoly laws and terminated the

threat to democracy. This achievement could be repeated now.

[iii] Here is enough sampling to indicate that it is not:

First of all, Sumner Redstone ( né Murray Rothstein) owns $8 billion dollars

worth of Viacom, which gives him the controlling interest in CBS, Viacom, MTV

worldwide (Brian Graden, president), and most recently he bought Black

Entertainment Television and proceeded immediately to cut down its

public-affairs programming. The president of CBS is Leslie Moonves, the great

nephew of David Ben-Gurion.

Michael Eisner is the major owner of Disney-Capitol Cities, which owns ABC.

David Westin is the president of ABC News. Although it has lost viewers,

Nightline host Ted Koppel is a strong supporter of Israel. Lloyd Braun is

chair of ABC Entertainment. And there is the perennial Barbara Walters.

Neil Shapiro is the president of NBC News. Jeffrey Zucker is the head of NBC

Entertainment and Jack Myers has some important post there, as well.

Although Rupert Murdoch of Fox is not Jewish, Mel Karamazin, the president of

the corporation is, as is Peter Chernin, the second in command at Murdoch's

News Corps.

Sandy Grushow is chairman of Fox Entertainment, and Gail Berman is president.

Murtdoch has received numerous awards from various Jewish charities.

Jamie Kellner is chair and CEO of Turner Broadcasting.

Walter Issacson is the News Director of CNN which also has Wolf Blitzer, host

of Late Edition, Larry King of Larry King Live, Paula Zahn, and Andrea

Koppel, Ted's daughter.

Jordan Levin is chairman of Warner Bros. Entertainment.

Howard Stringer is chair of Sony Corp. of America.

Robert Sillerman is the founder of Clear Channel Communications,

Ivan Seidenberg is chair of Verizon Communications

Terry Semel, former co-chair of Warners is CEO of Yahoo.

Barry Diller, former owner of Universal Entertainment, is the chair of USA

Interactive.

Joel Klein is chair and CEO of Bertelsmann's American operations, the largest

publishing conglomerate in the world.

Mort Zuckerman, the Chair of the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish

American Organizations, owns US News and World Report and the NY Daily News.

Arthur Sulzberger, Jr. publishes the NY Times, the Boston Globe and a host of

other publications.

Marty Peretz publishes the New Republic, which is unabashedly pro-Israel, as

is

William Kristol, editor of the Weekly Standard.

Donald Graham, Jr. is the chair and CEO of Newsweek and the Washington Post.

Michael Ledeen, of Iran-Contra fame, edits National Review.

Ron Rosenthal is the Managing Editor of the SF Chronicle and Phil Bronstein

is the Executive Editor.

David Schneiderman owns the Village Voice and a number of other "alternative"

weeklies.

Columnist William Safire, Tom Freidman, Charles Krauthammer, Richard Cohen,

Jeff Jacoby, are among the most widely syndicated columnists.

There are a number of widely syndicated talk show hosts such as Michael

Savage (ABC) on more than 100 stations, Michael Medved, 124 stations, and

Dennis Prager who has an Israeli flag on his website. Others include Ron

Owens, Ben Wattenberg, and former ZOA official Jon Rothman, all in San

Francisco on ABC.

In Hollywood, which was founded by Jews, there is of course, Stephen

Spielberg, David Geffen, and Jeffrey Kranzberg of Dreamworks, Eisner of

Disney, Amy Pascal, chair of Columbia, and many, many more.

For the intellectuals, we have NPR, with pundit Daniel Schorr and weekend

hosts Scott Simon and Liane Hansen, Robert Segal, Susan Stanberg, Eric

Weiner, Daniel Lev, Linda Gradstein (a well-known speaker at pro-Israel

events) covering Jerusalem, Mike Schuster (whose soft-ball interview with

Ariel Sharon after Sabra and Shatila should have brought him before the court

of Hamarabi). Brook Gladstein.

And that's just for starters. From the boss to the delivery it's an

impressive list. While they certainly can't be put in the same box when it

comes to Israel, they more or less guarantee that there will be limits to any

criticism they may make of Israel".

But, that is a small matter when you consider how the rest of this article distorts truth and rewrites history.
