A. N. FIELD, The Truth About the
Slump, page 208
"The World today, however provides a
spectacle of a great concentration of Jewish power. In New
York there is a concentration of Jewish financial power
dominating the entire world in its material affairs, and
side by side with it is the greates physical concentration
of the Jews ever recorded. On the other side of the globe,
there has taken place in Russia the greatest concentration
of the Jewish revolutionary activity in all history...
The enormously significant thing in the world today is that
both this power of the purse (Theodor Herzl's "terrible
(Jewish) power of the purse") and revolutionary activity are
working in the direction of destroying the entire existing
order of things, and not only are they working in a common
direction, but there is a mass of evidence that they are
working in unison."

POPES, ROMAN CATHOLIC.
SYLVESTER I. Condemned Jewish anti-Christian
activity.
GREGORY I ('The Great'). Protested
wholesale circumcision of Christian slaves by Jewish
traders, who monopolized the slave trade in Europe and the
Middle East and were widely suspected of supplying white
girls to Oriental and African buyers.
GREGORY VIII. Forbade Jews to have
power over Christians, in a letter to Alfonso VI of
Castile.
GREGORY IX. Condemned the TALMUD
as containing "every kind of vileness and blasphemy against
Christian doctrine."
BENEDICT XIII. His Bull on the
Jewish issue (1450) declared:
"The heresies, vanities and
errors of the TALMUD prevent their knowing the
truth."
JULIUS III. Contra Hebreos
retinentes libros (1554) ordered the TALMUD burned
"everywhere" and established a strict censorship over Jewish
genocidal writings - an order that has never been rescinded
and which presumably is still binding upon
Catholics.
PAUL IV. Cum nimis absurdim (1555)
promulgated immediately after his coronation, was a powerful
condemnation of Jewish usury. It embodies a model legal code
to curb Jewish power that was recommended to all
communities.
PIUS IV. Condemned Jewish
genocidal writings.
PIUS V. Hebraeorum gens (1569)
expelled all Jews from the Papal States.
GREGORY XIII. Declared that
Jews
"continue to plot horrible
crimes" against Christians "with daily increasing
audacity."
CLEMENT VIII. Condemned Jewish
genocidal writings.
ALEXANDER VIII. Condemned Jewish
genocidal writings.
BENEDICT XIV. Quo Primum 1751)
denounced Jewish control of commerce and "systematical
despoliation" of the Christian through usury.
PIUS VII. Known generally as an
'anti-Semite' by Jewish writers.
BENEDICT XV. Warned, in 1920,
against
"the advent of a Universal
Republic which is longed for by all the worst elements of
disorder."
This is resented by some Jews because of
their active sponsorship and direction of such projects as
the League of Nations and United Nations. - And in effect,
all Popes who have issued editions of the Index
Expurgatorius, in which Jewish genocidal and anti-Christian
writings are condemned, according to the instructions of the
Council of Trent.
953
GRANT, USYSSES S. 19th century
American general, politician. While in command of the
13th Army Corps, headquartered at Oxford, Mississippi, he
became so infuriated at Jewish camp-followers attempting to
penetrate the conquered territory that he finally attempted
to expel the Jews:
"I have long since believed that
in spite of all the vigilance that can be infused into
post commanders, the special regulations of the Treasury
Department have been violated, and that mostly by Jews
and other unprincipled traders. So well satisfied have I
been of this that I instructed the commanding officers at
Columbus to refuse all permits to Jews to come South, and
I have frequently had them expelled from the department,
but they come in with their carpet-sacks in spite of all
that can be done to prevent it. The Jews seem to be a
privileged class that can travel anywhere. They will land
at any woodyard on the river and make their way through
the country. If not permitted to buy cotton themselves,
they will act as agents for someone else, who will be at
military post with a Treasury permit to receive cotton
and pay for it in Treasury notes which the Jew will buy
up at an agreed rate, paying gold. (Letters to C. P.
Wolcott, assistant secretary of war, Washington, December
17, 1862)
1. The Jews, as a class, violating every regulation of
trade established by the Treasury Department, and also
Department orders, are hereby expelled from the
Department.
2. Within twenty-four hours from the receipt of this
order by Post Commanders, they will see that all of this
class of people are furnished with passes and required to
leave, and anyone returning after such notification, will
be arrested and held in confinement until an opportunity
occurs of sending them out as prisoners, unless furnished
with permits from these headquarters.
3. No permits will be given these people to visit
headquarters for the purpose of making personal
application for trade permits.
By order of Major Gen. Grant Jno. A. Rawlings, Assistant
Adjutant General (General Order Number 11, December 17,
1862)
The expulsion order was immediately countermanded by the
general-in-chief, H. W. Halleck, in Washington. Apparently
the expelled Jews had immediately contacted their kinsmen
there and had pressure brought to bear.
954
ROSS, L. F. 19th century American
military man. As did Generals ULYSSES S. GRANT and
WILLIAM T. SHERMAN, Ross confronted Jewish 'carpetbagging'
cotton traders preying upon captured Confederate areas
during the Civil War. In a letter to General John A.
McClernand, he wrote:
"The cotton speculators are quite
clamorous for aid in the getting their cotton away from
Middleburg, Hickory Valley, etc., and offer to pay liberally
for the service. I think I can bring it away with safety,
and make it pay to the Government. As some of the Jew owners
have as good as stolen the cotton from the planters, I have
no conscientious scruples in making them pay liberally to
take it away."
955
OLMSTED, GREDERICK LAW. 19th century
American architect, historian.
"A swarm of Jews has, within the last ten
years, settled in every Southern town, many of them men of
no character, opening cheap clothing and trinket shops,
ruining or driving out of business many of the old
retailers, and engaging in an unlawful trade with the simple
Negroes, which is found very profitable. (The Cotton
Kingdom. For other views on Jewish involvement in exploiting
the South, see ULYSSES S. GRANT and MARK TWAIN.)
956
TWAIN, MARK (S. L. Clemens). 19th
century American writer.
"In the U.S. cotton states,
after the war... the Jew came down in force, set up shop
on the plantation, supplied all the Negroes' wants on
credit, and at the end of the season was the proprietor
of the Negro's share of the present crop and part of the
next one. Before long, the whites detested the Jew.
(1)
The Jew is being legislated out of Russia. The reason is
not concealed. The movement was instituted because the
Christian peasant stood no chance against his commercial
abilities. The Jew was always ready to lend on a crop.
When settlement day came, he owned the crop; the next
year he owned the farm - like Joseph. (2)
In the England of John's time everybody got into debt to
the Jew. He gathered all lucrative enterprises into his
hands. He was the King of Commerce. He had to be banished
from the realm. For like reasons, Spain had to banish him
400 years ago, and Austria a couple of centuries
later.
In all ages Christian Europe has been obliged to curtail
his activities. If he entered upon a trade, the Christian
had to retire from it. If he set up as a doctor, he took
the business. If he exploited agriculture, the other
farmers had to get at something else. The law had to step
in to save the Christian from the poor-house. Still,
almost bereft of employments, he found ways to make
money. Even to get rich. This history has a most sordid
and practical commercial look. Religious prejudices may
account for one part of it, bit not for the other
nine.
Protestants have persecuted Catholics - but they did not
take their livelihoods away from them. Catholics have
persecuted Protestants - bit they never closed
agriculture and the handicrafts against them. I feel
convinced that the Crucifixion has not much to do with
the world's attitude toward the Jew; that the reasons for
it are much older than that event ...
I am convinced that the persecution of the Jew is not in
any large degree due to religious prejudice. No, the Jew
is a money-getter. He made it the end and aim of his
life. He was at it in Rome. He has been at it ever since.
His success has made the whole human race his enemy.
You will say that the Jew is everywhere numerically
feeble. When I read in the Cyclopedia Britannica that the
Jewish population in the United States was 250,000 I
wrote the editor and explained to him that I was
personally acquainted with more Jews than that, and that
his figures were without doubt a misprint for 25,000,000.
People told me that they had reasons to suspect that for
business reasons, many Jews did not report themselves as
Jews. It looks plausible. I am strongly of the opinion
that we have an immense Jewish population in America. I
am assured by men competent to speak that the Jews are
exceedingly active in politics. ("Concerning the Jews,"
Harper's Monthly Magazine, September 1899)
Twain's opinion on the Jews is probably the best-kept secret
in American literary history. Immediately after his death,
his eccentric daughter Clara married - or was married by -
the Jewish piano player, Ossip Galbrilowitsch. Twain's
publishers were given speedy instructions to delete
"Concerning the Jews" from the collected works, where it had
appeared in the book The Man that Corrupted Hadleybury &
Other Stories. (1) Since Jews provided most of the agitators
and orators who pushed forward the Abolition campaign that
culminated in the Civil War (which Jewish bankers largely
financed, on both sides), it seems a legitimate question
whether there was any preplanning for the wholesale - and
retail - economic looting done by mainly Jewish
carpetbaggers after the war. (2) We have cited a host of
other writers on the terrible economic depredation that
Jewry visited on the people of Tzarist Russia.
957
ERNEST RENAN, French
historian
"The Jews are not merely a different
religious community, but - and this is the most important
factor - ethnically an altogether different race. The
European felt instinctively that the Jew is a stranger, who
immigrated from Asia. The so-called prejudice is natural
sentiment. Civilization will overcome antipathy against the
Israelite who merely professes another religion, but never
against the racially different Jew...
In Eastern Europe the Jew is the cancer slowly eating into
the flesh of other nations. Exploitation of the people is
his only aim. Selfishness and a lack of personal courage are
his chief characteristics; self-sacrifice and patriotism are
altogether foreign to him."
958
GOLDWIN SMITH, Professor of Modern
History at Oxford, wrote in Nineteenth Century, October
1881
"The Jew alone regard his race as
superior to humanity, and looks forward not to its ultimate
union with other races, but to its triumph over them all and
to its final ascendancy under the leadership of a tribal
Messiah."
959
MENCKEN, H. L. 20th century American
writer.
"The Jews could be put down very
plausibly as the most unpleasant race ever heard of. As
commonly encountered they lack any of the qualities that
mark the civilized man: courage, dignity, incorruptibility,
ease, confidence. They have vanity without pride,
voluptuousness without taste, and learning without wisdom.
Their fortitude, such as it is, is wasted upon puerile
objects, and their charity is mainly a form of display."
(Treatise on the Gods)
The fact that what are commonly spoken of as rights are
often really privileges is demonstrated in the case of the
Jews. They resent bitterly their exclusion from certain
hotels, resorts and other places of gathering, and make
determined efforts to horn in. But the moment any
considerable number of them horns in, the attractions of the
place diminish, and the more pushful Jews turn to one where
they are still nicht gewuenscht ... ("not wanted.")
"I am one of the few Goyim who have ever actually tackled
the TALMUD. I suppose you now expect me to add that it is a
profound and noble work, worthy of hard study by all other
GOYIM. Unhappily, my report must differ from this
expectation. It seems to me, save for a few bright spots, to
be quite indistinguishable from rubbish..."
"The Jewish theory that the GOYIM envy the superior ability
of the Jews is not borne out by the facts. Most GOYIM, in
fact, deny that the Jew is superior, and point in evidence
to his failure to take the first prizes: he has to be
content with the seconds. No Jewish composer has ever come
within miles of Bach, Beethoven and Brahms; no Jew has ever
challenged the top-flight painters of the world, and no
Jewish scientist has equaled Newton, Darwin, Pasteur or
Mendel. In the latter bracket such apparent exception as
Ehrlich, Freud and Einstein are only apparent. Ehrlich, in
fact, contributed less to biochemical fact than to
biochemical theory, and most of his theory was dubious.
Freud was nine-tenths quack, and there is sound reason for
believing that even Einstein will not hold up: in the long
run his curved space may be classed with the psychosomatic
bumps of Gall and Spurzheim. But whether this inferiority of
the Jew is real or only a delusion, it must be manifest that
it is generally accepted. The GOY does not, in fact, believe
that the Jew is better than the non-Jew; the most he will
admit is that the Jew is smarter at achieving worldly
success. But this he ascribes to sharp practices, not to
superior ability." (Minority Report: H. L. Mencken's
Notebooks)
960
SHAW, GEORGE BERNARD. 20th century
British dramatist.
"This is the real enemy, the invader from
the East, the Druze, the ruffian, the oriental parasite; in
a word: the Jew. (London Morning Post, December 3, 1925)
This craving for bouquets by Jews is a symptom of racial
degeneration. The Jews are worse than my own people. Those
Jews who still want to be the chosen race (chosen by the
late Lord Balfour) can go to Palestine and stew in their own
juice. The rest had better stop being Jews and start being
human beings. (Literary Digest, October 12, 1932)
961
WAGNER, RICHARD. 19th century German
composer.
"The Jew has never had an art of his own,
hence never a live of art-enabling import... "So long as the
separate art of music had a real organic life-need in it,
down to the epochs of Mozart and Beethoven, there was
nowhere to be found a Jew composer: it was utterly
impossible for an element quiet foreign to that living
organism to take a part in the formative stages of that
life. Only when a body's inner death is manifest, do outside
elements win the power of judgment in it - yet merely to
destroy it.
On one thing am I clear: that is the influence which the
Jews have gained upon our mental life, as displayed in the
deflection and falsification of our highest
culture-tendencies. Whether the downfall of our culture can
be arrested by a violent rejection of the destructive alien
element, I an unable to decide, since that would require
forces with whose existence I am unacquainted. (Judaism in
Music)
962
SOMBART, WERNER. 20th century German
economist.
"Capitalism was born from the money loan.
Money lending contains the root idea of capitalism. Turn to
the pages of the TALMUD and you will find that the Jews made
an art of lending money. They were taught early to look for
their chief happiness in the possession of money. They
fathomed all the secrets that lay hid in money. They became
Lords of Money and Lords of the World...
963
FITZGERALD, F. SCOTT. 20th century
American novelist.
"Down a tall busy street he read a dozen
Jewish names on a line of stores; in the door of each stood
a dark little man watching the passers from intent eyes -
eyes gleaming with suspicion, with pride, with clarity, with
cupidity, with comprehension. New York - he could not
dissociate it from the slow, upward creep of this people -
the little stores, growing, expanding, consolidating,
moving, watched over with hawks' eyes and a bee's attention
to detail - they [were Jews.]
964
EMERSON, RALPH WALDO. 19th century
American philosopher, poet.
"The sufferance which is the badge of the
Jew has made him, in these days, the ruler of the rulers of
the earth. (Fate an essay)
965
BURTON, SIR RICHARD FRANCIS. 19th
century British diplomat, writer. After a sting as
consul at Damascus, Syria, where some years before, a
Catholic priest was allegedly murdered in a blood ritual by
Jews, Burton took an interest in the matter. His
investigations satisfied him that such killings actually
were performed by certain sects of Jews.
"The Jew's hand was ever, like Ishmael's,
against every man but those belonging to the Synagogue. His
fierce passions and fiendish cunning, combined with abnormal
powers of intellect, with intense vitality, and with a
persistency of purpose which the world has rarely seen, and
whetted moreover by a keen thirst for blood engendered by
defeat and subjection, combined to make him the deadly enemy
of all mankind, whilst his unsocial and iniquitous Oral Law
contributed to inflame his wild lust of pelf, and to justify
the crimes suggested by spite and superstition."
966
DREISER, THEODORE. 20th century
American writer.
"New York to me is a scream - a Kyke's
dream of a ghetto. The Lost Tribe has taken the island.
(Letter to H. L. Mencken, November 5, 1922) "
"Liberalism, in the case of the Jew, means internationalism.
If you listen to Jews discuss Jews, you will find they are
mone-minded, very sharp in practice. The Jews lack the fine
integrity which at last is endorsed, and to a certain degree
followed, by lawyers of other nationalities. The Jew has
been in Germany for a thousand years, and he is still a Jew.
He has been in America for all of 200 years, and he has not
faded into a pure American by any means - and he will not.
(Letter to Hutchins Hapgood, The Nation magazine, April 17,
1935)"
967
WELLS, H. G. 20th century British
writer.
"The Jews looked for a special savior, a
messiah, who was to redeem mankind by the agreeable process
of restoring the fabulous glories of David and Solomon, and
bringing the whole world at last under the firm but
benevolent Jewish heel." (The Outline of History)
"Zionism is an expression of Jewish refusal to assimilate.
If the Jews have suffered, it is because they have regarded
themselves as a chosen people." (The Anatomy of
Frustration)
"A careful study of anti-Semitism prejudice and accusations
might be of great value to many Jews, who do not adequately
realize the irritations they inflict." (Letter of November
11, 1933)
Wells was in the habit of referring to KARL MARX as "a
shallow third-rate Jew," and "a lousy Jew" in private
correspondence. (Norman MacKenzie, H. G. Wells)

LINDBERGH, CHARLES. 20th century
American aviator, writer.
Wednesday, August 23, 1939
"We are disturbed about the
effect of the Jewish influence in our press, radio and
motion pictures. It may become very serious.
[Fulton] Lewis told us of one instance where the
Jewish advertising firms threatened to remove all their
advertising from the Mutual system if a certain feature
were permitted to go on the air. The threat was powerful
enough to have the feature removed."
Thursday, May 1, 1941
"The pressure for war is high and
mounting. The people are opposed to it, but the
Administration seems to have 'the bit in its teeth' and is
hell-bent on its way to war. Most of the Jewish interests in
the country are behind war, and they control a huge part of
our press and radio and most of our motion pictures. There
are the 'intellectuals' and the 'Anglophiles,' and the
British agents who are allowed free rein, the international
financial interests, and many others." (The Wartime
Journals)

GENERAL GEORGE VAN HORN MOSELY, in the
New York Tribune, March 29, 1939
"The war now proposed is for the purpose
of establishing Jewish influence throughout the

HERDER, JOHANN GOTTFRIED. 18th century
German philosopher.
"The Jewish people is and remains in
Europe an Asiatic people alien to our part of the world,
bound to that old law which it received in a distant
climate, and which, according to its confession, it cannot
do away with...
How many of this alien people can be tolerated without
injury to the true citizen?
A ministry in which a Jew is supreme, a household in which a
Jew has the key of the wardrobe and the management of the
finances, a department or commissariat in which Jews do the
principal business, are Pontine marshes which cannot be
drained. (Bekehrung der Juden)
For thousands of years, since their emergence on the stage
of history, the Jews were a parasitic growth on the stem of
other nations, a race of cunning brokers all over the earth.
They have cause great evil to many ill-organized states, by
retarding the free and natural economic development of their
indigenous population. ("Hebraer," in Ideen)
971
BONAPARTE, NAPOLEON. French statesman,
general.
"The Jews provided troops for my campaign
in Poland, but they ought to reimburse me: I soon found that
they are no good for anything but selling old
clothes..."
"Legislating must be put in effect everywhere that the
general well-being is in danger. The government cannot look
with indifference on the way a despicable nation takes
possession of all the provinces of France. The Jews are the
master robbers of the modern age; they are the carrion birds
of humanity... "They must be treated with political justice,
not with civil justice. They are surely not real
citizens."
"The Jews have practiced usury since the time of Moses, and
oppressed the other peoples. Meanwhile, the Christians were
only rarely usurers, falling into disgrace when they did so.
We ought to ban the Jews from commerce because they abuse
it... The evils of the Jews do not stem from individuals but
from the fundamental nature of this people." (From
Napoleon's Reflections, and from speeches before the Council
of State on April 30 and May 7, 1806.)
"Nothing more contemptible could be done than the reception
of the Jews by you. I decided to improve the Jews. But I do
not want more of them in my kingdom. Indeed, I have done all
to prove my scorn of the most vile nation in the world."
(Letter to his brother Jerome, King of Westphalia, March 6,
1808)
(1) Every big and small Jew is the peddling trade must renew

Jew can prove that he has obtained the money without
cheating. (Ordinance of March 17, 1808. Napoleonic
Code.)

DE GAULLE, CHARLES. 20th century
French politician. Addressing the Zionist imbroglio in
the Mideast in a news conference of November 27, 1967, he
observed:
"The Jews remain what they have been at
all times: an elite people, self-confident and
domineering."
973
SAND, GEORGE (Amantine Dupin
Dudevant). 19th century French novelist.
"I saw in 'the wandering Jew' the
personification of the Jewish people, exiled in the Middle
Ages. Nevertheless, they are once again extremely rich,
owing to their unfailing rude greediness and their
indefatigable activity. With their hard-heartedness that
they extend toward people of other faiths and races they are
at the point of making themselves kings of the world. This
people can thank its obstinacy that France will be Judized
within fifty years. Already some wise Jews prophesy this
frankly." (Letter to Victor Lorie, 1857)
974
COMMUNITY OF STRASBOURG, FRANCE.
In an address to the ASSEMBLEE in 1790, the city's
revolutionary leaders opposed citizenship for Jews,
because:
"Everyone knew the inherent bad character
of the Jews and no one doubted they were foreigners... Let
the 'enlighteners' stop defaming the Gentiles by blaming
them for what is wrong with the Jews. Their conduct is their
own fault. Perhaps the Jews might eventually give up every
aspect of their separation and all the characteristics of
their nature. Let us sit and wait until that happens; we
might them judge them to be worthy of equality. (Tres Humble
Adresse qui Presente la Commune de la Ville
Strasbourg)
975
ROBERTS, STEPHEN H. 20th century
Australian historian. Though hostile on almost every
point to National Socialism, his The House that Hitler Built
does admit that Jews were a menace in Germany:
"It is useless to deny that grave Jewish
problems existed in Germany. The nation was in the
unfortunate geographical position of being the first stage
in the perennial push westward of the Polish Jews. Unless
forced on, they tended to stop in Berlin and Hamburg, where
they obtained an unduly share of good professional
positions. In Berlin, for example, when the Nazi came to
power, 50.2 percent of the lawyers were Jews. In medicine,
48 per cent of the doctors were Jews, and it was said that
they systematically seized the principal hospital posts. The
Jews owned the largest and most important Berlin newspapers,
and they had made great inroads on the educational
system."
976
FRANCO, FRANCISCO. 20th century
Spanish statesman. In his victory speech in Madrid, on
May 19, 1939, he declared:
"Let us be under no illusion. The Jewish
spirit, which was responsible for the alliance of
large-scale capital with Marxism and was the driving force
behind so many anti-Spanish revolutionary agreements, will
not be got rid of in a day."
877
PRIMO DE RIVERA, JOSE. 20th century
Spanish political reformer (assassinated by the
Communists). He stressed that the instruments of Jewish
domination in the modern world are money and the press, and
that communism is an instrument of international Jewish
capitalism used to smash and afterwards rule the nations.

H. H. BEAMISH, in a New York address,
October 30 - November 1, 1937
"In 1848 the word "anti-Semitic" was
invented by the Jews to prevent the use of the word "Jew."
The right word for them is "Jew" ...
"I implore all of you to be accurate - call them Jews. There
is no need to be delicate on this Jewish question. You must
face them in this country. The Jew should be satisfied here.
I was here forty-seven years ago; your doors were thrown
open to the Jews and they were free. No he has got you
absolutely by the throat - that is your reward."
979
CHRISTEA, PATRIARCH. 20th century
Romanian prelate.
"The Jews have caused an epidemic of
corruption and social unrest. They monopolize the press,
which, with foreign help, flays all the spiritual treasures
of the Romanians. To defend ourselves is a national and
patriotic duty - not anti-Semitism. Lack of measures to get
rid of the plague would indicate that we are lazy cowards
who let ourselves be carried alive to our graves. Why should
we not get rid of these parasites who suck Romanian and
Christian blood? It is logical and holy to react against
them." (New York Herald Tribune, August 17, 1937)
980
HOUSTON STEWART CHAMBERLAIN, world
famed author of Foundations of the Nineteenth Century, Vol.
I, page 337
"The revelation of Christ has no
significance for the Jew! ... I have searched through a
whole library of Jewish books in the expectation of finding
- naturally not belief in the Divinity of Christ, nor the
idea of redemption, but the purely human feeling for the
greatness of suffering Savior - but in vain. A Jew who feels
that, is, in fact, no longer a Jew, but a denier of Judiasm.
And while we find, even in Mohammed's Koran, at least a
vague conception of the importance of Christ and profound
reverence for His personality, a cultured leading Jew of the
nineteenth century (Graetz) calls Christ "the new birth with
the death mask," which inflicted new and painful wounds upon
the Jewish people; he cannot see anything else in Him. In
view of the Cross he assures us that "the Jews do not
require this convulsive emotion for their spiritual
improvement," and adds, "particularly not among the middle
classes of inhabitants of the cities." His comprehension
goes further. In a book, republished in 1880, by a Spanish
Jew (Mose de Leon) Jesus Christ is called a "dead dog" that
lies "buried in a dunghill." Besides, the Jews have taken
care to issue in the latter part of the nineteens century
several editions (naturally in Hebrew) of the so-called
"censured passages" from the Talmud, those passages usually
omitted in which Christ is exposed to our scorn and hatred
as a "fool," "sorcerer," "profane person," "idolater,"
"dog," "bastard," "child of lust," etc.: so, too, His
sublime Mother."
981
ADRIEN ARCAND, Canadian political
leader of the 1930s
"Through their (Jew's) international news
agencies, they mold your minds and have you see the world
not as it is, but as they want you to see it. Through their
cinema, they are the educators of our youth - and with just
one film in two hours, can wipe out of a child's brain what
he has learned in six months in the home, the church or the
school."

NESTA WEBSTER, in her book Germany and

"England is no longer controlled by
Britons. We are under the invisible Jewish dictatorship - a
dictatorship that can be felt in every sphere of

HENRY WALLACE, Secretary of Commerce,
under President Harry Truman, wrote in his dairy that in
1946
"Truman was "exasperated" over Jewish
pressure that he support Zionist rule over Palestine.
Wallace added "Pres. Truman expressed himself as being very
much 'put out' with the Jews. He said that 'Jesus Christ
couldn't please them when he was here on Earth, so how could
anyone expect that I would have any luck?' Pres. Truman said
he hand no use for them and didn't care what happened to
them."
984
WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYANT, three times
the Democratic Party candidate for President said:
"New York is the city of privilege. Here
is the seat of the Invisible Power represented by the allied
forces of finance and industry. This Invisible Government is
reactionary, sinister, unscrupulous, mercenary, and sordid.
It is wanting in national ideals and devoid of conscience...
This kind of government must be scourged and
destroyed."

"One by one, the Jews are capturing the
principal newspapers of America. (Letter of November 1914,
to Sir Edward Grey, foreign secretary. Letters and
Friendships)

CAPOTE, TRUMAN. 20th century American
writer. In an interview, he assailed "the Zionist mafia"
monopolizing publishing today, and protested a tendency to
suppress things that do not meet with Jewish approval.

VOLTAIRE (Francois Marie Arouet) 18th
century French philosopher, writer.
"Why are the Jews hated? It is the
inevitable result of their laws; they either have to conquer
everybody or be hated by the whole human race..."
"The Jewish nation dares to display an irreconcilable hatred
toward all nations, and revolts against all masters; always
superstitious, always greedy for the well-being enjoyed by
others, always barbarous - cringing in misfortune and
insolent in prosperity." (Essai sur le Moeurs)
"You seem to me to be the maddest of the lot. The Kaffirs,
the Hottentots, and the Negroes of Guinea are much more
reasonable and more honest people than your ancestors, the
Jews. You have surpassed all nations in impertinent fables
in bad conduct and in barbarism. You deserve to be punished,
for this is your destiny." (From a letter to a Jew who had
written to him, complaining of his 'anti-Semitism.' Examen
des Quelques Objections... dans L'Essai sur le Moeurs.)
"You will only find in the Jews an ignorant and barbarous
people, who for a long time have joined the most sordid
avarice to the most detestable superstition and to the most
invincible hatred of all peoples which tolerate and enrich
them." ("Juif," Dictionnaire Philosophique)
"I know that there are some Jews in the English colonies.
These marranos go wherever there is money to be made... But
whether these circumcised who sell old clothes claim that
they are of the tribe of Naphtali or Issachar is not of the
slightest importance. They are, simply, the biggest
scoundrels who have ever dirtied the face of the earth."
(Letter to Jean-Baptiste Nicolas de Lisle de Sales, December
15, 1773. Correspondance. 86:166)
"They are, all of them, born with raging fanaticism in their
hearts, just as the Bretons and the Germans are born with
blond hair. I would not be in the least bit surprised if
these people would not some day become deadly to the human
race." (Lettres de Memmius a Ciceron, 1771)

CANNOT, E. 19th century French
reformer. In La Renovation, journal of the socialist
school of CHARLES FOURIER.
"Jews! To the heights of your Sinai... I
humbly lift myself. I stand erect and cry out to you, in
behalf of all my humble equals, of all those whom your
spoliation has brought to grief, who died in misery through
you and whose trembling shades accuse you: Jews! for Cain
and Iscariot, leave us, leave us! Ah, cross the Red Sea
again, and go down there to the desert, to the promised land
which is waiting for you, the only country fit for you; o
you wicked, rude and dishonest people, go there!!!
("Israel")

Jewish Racism
Moses
Maimonides
The Encyclopedia of the Jewish Religion refers to
Moses Maimonides as "the symbol of the pure and orthodox
faith." His Guide to the Perplexed is considered the
greatest work of Jewish religious philosophy, but his view
of Blacks was Hitlerian:
"[T]he Negroes found in the remote South, and those
who resemble them from among them that are with us in these
climes [p;] The status of those is like that of
irrational animals. To my mind they do not have the rank of
men, but have among the beings a rank lower than the rank of
man but higher than the rank of apes. For they have the
external shape and lineaments of a man and a faculty of
discernment that is superior to that of the apes."
991
Philadelphia Jewish
weekly The Jewish Record
of January 23, 1863:
"We know not how to speak in the same breath of the Negro
and the Israelite. The very names have startlingly opposite
sounds p; one representing all that is debased and
inferior in the hopeless barbarity and heathenism of six
thousand years the other, the days when Jehovah conferred on
our fathers the glorious equality which led the Eternal to
converse with them, and allow them to enjoy the communion of
angels. Thus the abandoned fanatics insult the choice of God
himself, in endeavoring to reverse the inferiority which he
stamped on the African, to make him the compeer, even in
bondage, of His chosen people.
"There is no parallel between such races. Humanity from pole
to pole would scout such a comparison. The Hebrew was
originally free and the charter of his liberty was inspired
by his Creator. The Negro was never free and his bondage in
Africa was simply duplicated in a milder form when he was
imported here....The judicious in all the earth agree that
to proclaim the African equal to the surrounding races,
would be a farce which would lead the civilized conservatism
of the world to denounce the outrage."
992
Major Mordecai Manuel
Noah (1785-1851) was considered
the most distinguished Jewish layman in his time. He was
such a prolific proponent of slavery, that the first Black
American periodical, The Freedom's Journal, was
launched in response to Noah's racist propaganda. He
actually defended slavery by calling it liberty:
"There is liberty under the name of slavery. A field negro
has his cottage, his wife, and children, his easy task, his
little patch of corn and potatos, his garden and fruit,
which are his revenue and property. The house servant has
handsome clothing, his luxurious meals, his admitted
privacy, a kind master, and an indulgent and frequently fond
mistress."
He argued that "the bonds of society must be kept as they
now are" and that "To emancipate the slaves would be to
jeopardize the safety of the whole country." The
Freedom's Journal called Noah the Black man's
"bitterest enemy" and William
Lloyd Garrison, the leading White abolitionist, called
him the "lineal descendant of the monsters who nailed Jesus
to the cross."

Elie
Weisel, Hate Teacher
"There is a time to love and a time to hate; whoever does
not hate when he should does not deserve to love when he
should, does not deserve to love when he is able. Perhaps,
had we learned to hate more during the years of ordeal, fate
itself would have taken fright. The Germans did their best
to teach us, but we were poor pupils in the discipline of
hate....Every Jew, somewhere in his being, should set apart
a zone of hate - healthy, virile hate - for what the German
personifies and for what persists in the German. To do
otherwise would be a betrayal of the dead." Legends of
Our Time (1968), pp.177-78:

Robert A.
Rockaway, is a senior lecturer in
the Department of Jewish History at Tel Aviv
University.
"After the first World War, Jewish
Gangsters became major figures in the American underworld
and played prominent roles in the creation and extension of
organized crime in the United States. During Prohibition
fifty percent of the leading bootleggers were Jews, and
Jewish criminals financed and directed much of the nations
narcotics traffic. Jews also dominated illicit activities in
a number of America's largest cities, including Boston,
Cleveland, Detroit, Minneapolis, New York, and
Philadelphia."

About Civil
Rights
A Rabbi,
1956
"What our friends in the North do not fully appreciate is
the fact that there is no difference between most of the
Jews and their Christian neighbors in their attitudes toward
the Negro. This is not a by-product of antisemitism, but an
honest conviction. For these Jews desegregation presents not
merely a school problem, but also a problem of the mixing of
races."

Black Slavery
Marc Lee
Raphael
"Jews also took an active part in the Dutch colonial slave
trade; indeed, the bylaws of the Recife and Mauricia
congregations (1648) included an imposta (Jewish tax)
of five soldos for each Negro slave a Brazilian Jew
purchased from the West Indies Company. Slave auctions were
postponed if they fell on a Jewish holiday. In Curacao in
the seventeenth century, as well as in the British colonies
of Barbados and Jamaica in the eighteenth century, Jewish
merchants played a major role in the slave trade. In fact,
in all the American colonies, whether French (Martinique),
British, or Dutch, Jewish merchants frequently
dominated.
"This was no less true on the North American mainland, where
during the eighteenth century Jews participated in the
'triangular trade' that brought slaves from Africa to the
West Indies and there exchanged them for molasses, which in
turn was taken to New England and converted into rum for
sale in Africa. Isaac Da Costa of Charleston in the 1750's,
David Franks of Philadelphia in the 1760's, and Aaron Lopez
of Newport in the late 1760's and early 1770's dominated
Jewish slave trading on the American continent." Jews and
Judaism in the United States a Documentary History (New
York: Behrman House, Inc., Pub, 1983), p. 14. Raphael is the
editor of American Jewish History, the journal of the
American Jewish Historical Society at Brandeis University in
Massachusetts.

"In Charleston, Richmond and Savannah the large majority
(over three-fourths) of the Jewish households contained one
or more slaves; in Baltimore, only one out of three
households were slaveholding; in New York, one out of
eighteen....Among the slaveholding households the median
number of slaves owned ranged from five in Savannah to one
in New York." "The Jewish Population in 1820," in Abraham J.
Karp, ed., The Jewish Experience in America: Selected
Studies from the Publications of the American Jewish
Historical Society (Waltham, Massachusetts, 1969, 3
volumes), volume 2, pp. 2, 17, 19.

Cecil
Roth
"The Jews of the Joden Savanne [Surinam] were also
foremost in the suppression of the successive negro revolts,
from 1690 to 1722: these as a matter of fact were largely
directed against them, as being the greatest slave-holders
of the region." History of the Marranos
(Philadelphia: Jewish Publication Society of America, 1932),

"The developing coherence of Asian
regional thinking is reflected in a disposition to consider
problems and loyalties in regional terms, and to evolve
regional approaches to development needs and to the
evolution of a new world order." (Richard Nixon, in Foreign
Affairs (October 1967))

"All through the eighteenth century, into the early
nineteenth, Jews in the North were to own black servants; in
the South, the few plantations owned by Jews were tilled
with slave labor. In 1820, over 75 percent of all Jewish
families in Charleston, Richmond, and Savannah owned slaves,
employed as domestic servants; almost 40 percent of all
Jewish householders in the United States owned one slave or
more. There were no protests against slavery as such by Jews
in the South, where they were always outnumbered at least
100 to 1....But very few Jews anywhere in the United States
protested against chattel slavery on moral grounds."
United States Jewry, 1776-1985 (Detroit: Wayne State
University Press, 1989), p. 586.
