IS IT GOOD FOR THE JEWS
For decades, large numbers of American Jews and the vast
majority of their leadership have been practicing the art of national
suicide. Faced with the loss of an elementary
understanding that is possessed by even the most backward and primitive of
people – that vital issues should be judged on the basis of national
self-interest – Jews have consistently vowed fealty to ‘objectivity’, regularly
placed liberal or “humanitarian” concepts over Jewish ones and worked
tirelessly to destroy themselves.
Any normal people realize that groups base decisions upon
self-interest. Any normal people
realizes that democracy is a conglomerate of pressure and self-interest groups
with farmers, consumers, unions, Catholics, Blacks and all kinds of lobbyists
constantly striving to assure that their interests be served. Apparently, the Exile has so warped and
terrified certain Jews that they strive to escape their Jewishness and the persecution
that accrues from it, by becoming citizens of the world and “humans,” thus
gaining love and safety from anti-Semitism.
It is insecurity, fear and drive to assimilate that lead
certain Jews to back causes that are blatantly anti-Jewish. Thus, some Jews become Marxists in face of
the fact that Marxism means the elimination of Jews both as a religion and
nation. Certain Jews become “humanists”
despite – or because of – the subsequent blurring of all division between Jew
and non-Jew. Others, retain their Jewishness, but insist upon being liberals
before Jews and think a liberal world guarantees safety for the Jew. All these groups have been proven wrong a
thousand times over and the fact remains that the Jew can new never purchase
his safety, security and peace at the expense of his own identity, specifically
separate existence. The one way to
assure that identity and the survival of the Jew as a separate entity, is
through Jewish self-interest.
Progress for Blacks does NOT, as we have been assured,
necessarily guarantee Jewish progress.
Liberal support for downtrodden people in no way necessarily assures
Jewish survival. Being a liberal is not
always synonymous with Jewish interests (and the same holds true for being a
conservative).
It is vital for the Jew – if he wishes to survive – to
understand a number of basic axioms:
1. Unless the Jew aids himself there is no one else who will
come to his rescue in time of great and critical need. The fact is so historically true that it is
inexplicable that it is not self-obvious.
2. Jews, in order to survive, must continually gird their
resources and strength for Jewish causes and aims since no one else will.
3. In assessing every issue and politician the Jew should always
use the yardstick: Is it good for the Jews?
This latter point may distress a
great many liberal Jews. It will surely
not upset militant blacks who work along this principle for their own people
continually and who understand the extent of white hostility and the need for
Black power for Black interests. Indeed,
the growing awareness of self within the ranks of ethnics all over the country
gives the lie to the absurd myth of the Melting Pot. No one merits: in the end ethnic and
religious ties – inward national pulls – are far more powerful than
international and supranational movements.
It is little wonder that after 50 years of Soviet rule, Ukrainians and
other groups retain and strengthen their own identity and the Great Russians
retain their strangle hold on the Soviet Establishment. It is not surprising that 27 years of Tito
can do nothing about the rise of Serbian-Croat rivalry and the Communist
Albania and Yugoslavia have an Albanian ethnic problem.
No one melts except frightened
people who attempt to. In the end they
either dissolve completely or are rejected by the host body. The solution to survival and respect in this
world is not to attempt to lose oneself but to find; not to escape from
but to return to the source of one’s beginnings. One who does not know from whence he came
will never know where he is going. Some
day we may build a better world but it will never come until each of us regains
his own separate identity and self-respect.
Only with that self-respect can we respect others and only when others
respect us will they truly accept our hand in friendship.
