Mandatory Holocaust Training For the Police

You will notice at the end of the video below that they say this sort of training has been mandatory for the FBI and other federal law enforcement for about a decade. Do you really think it is any different in Canada? To learn more about the Holocaust, see here. (Be sure to scroll down and go through all of the articles.)

"Much of the literature on Hitler's final solution is worthless as scholarship, indeed, the field of Holocaust studies is replete with nonsense... if not, sheer fraud. Given the nonsense that is turned out daily by the Holocaust industry, the wonder is that there are so few skeptics" - Norman Finkelstein

More quotes from Norman Finkelstein:

- There is no way a non-Jew could say what I did in 'The Holocaust Industry' without being labeled a Holocaust denier. I am labeled a Holocaust denier, too.

- The Holocaust industry has always been bankrupt. What remains is to openly declare it so. The time is long past to put it out of business.

- Judging by opinion polls, Israel has bigger problems than me. It is among the most hated countries on the planet. It should stop acting like a lunatic state. Once it carries on like a normal country, I will be happy to redirect my energies elsewhere.

- Insofar as Zionism sought to solve the Jewish question, it must be reckoned not just a failure but a catastrophe: Israel is the main cause of anti-Semitism in the world today.

- Why should these Palestinians, who have lived in Jerusalem for hundreds of years, be evicted from their homes so that Jews from Brooklyn can live in them?

- The Holocaust has proven to be an indispensable ideological weapon. Through its deployment, one of the world's most formidable military powers, with a horrendous human rights record, has cast itself as a "victim" state, and the most successful ethnic group in the US has likewise acquired victim status.

- Israel has come out of the boils of the hell, a satanic state.

- They used to say Palestinians fight like heroes, now they say heroes fight like Palestinians

- The Zionists indeed learned well from the Nazis. So well that it seems that their morally repugnant treatment of the Palestinians, and their attempts to destroy Palestinian society within Israel and the occupied territories, reveals them as basically Nazis with beards and black hats.

- International law says people fighting for self-determination can use force in order to achieve their independence.

Must See Video With George Soros About World War II

Below is an extremely interesting interview video with George Soros who runs the Quantum Fund. Every Jew and Gentile should watch this. This is one of the reasons that I have been putting up information about the Holocaust, the Transfer Agreement, (see here and here) and World War II.

The reality is, we need to know the truth about World War I and World War II. There is a lot of information that is being hidden from people and historians themselves cannot even pry into this too deeply without being labeled "Holocaust Deniers." It has nothing to do with doubting a Holocaust, it is about finding out the truth. Just like every historical event, it should be open to investigation so we get the facts straight. The reality is, some of the workers in Auschwitz were working for I.G.Farben, which was a massive chemical company and a fundamental force for the Nazi war effort. Why was this happening? Why didn't the United States government do something about this? Read below to learn more about the Warburg's who were instrumental in setting up the Federal Reserve in the United States and I.G. Farben. The Warburg family is not as well known as the Rothschilds, but, they are almost as powerful. There are many of these Jewish banking dynasties that few people know about.

Felix and Paul Warburg emigrated to the United States. Felix Warburg married Frieda Schiff, daughter of Jacob H. Schiff, a banker who grew up in Frankfurt. Jacob Schiff was also a major financier of the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia. Schiff financed parts of the American rail system through his investment bank Kuhn Loeb. Schiff's great great grandson Drew married Al Gore's daughter Karenna. Felix Warburg's house in New York City is now the Jewish Museum, and Kfar Warburg in Israel is named for him. His brother Paul Warburg married Nina Loeb, daughter, of Solomon Loeb; they met at the wedding of Paul's brother Felix to Nina's niece Frieda. Paul Warburg was a planner for the U.S. Federal Reserve System which is a collection of private banks, and attended as the American representative, at the Treaty of Versailles conference, where his brother Max was on the German side of the bargaining table.

Beginning in 1933, Max Warburg served on the board of the Nazi Reichsbank, reporting directly to Hjalmar Schacht, before emigrating in 1938.

Before World War II, Max Warburg served on the board of directors of Interessen Gemeinschaft Farben or I.G. Farben, the giant German chemical firm that produced Zyklon B gas used in Nazi internment camps. His brother Paul Warburg served on the board of directors of I.G. Farben's wholly owned American subsidiary, which was also associated with Standard Oil (however, Paul Warburg died in January 1932, before Hitler was elected Chancellor). I.G. Auschwitz, founded in Katowice (33 km northwest of Auschwitz town) had its own corporate slave camp called Buna/Monowitz, where prisoners from Auschwitz were put to work. The Kilgore Committee Report of 1942 claimed that all I.G. Farben board members had precise and prior knowledge that Zyklon B (an insecticide) was being used to murder civilians in concentration camps, with no attempt made to halt production of the insecticide after such murders were understood. I.G. Farben, financed through Wall Street, was instrumental in channeling funds for the rise to power of the Nazi Party (as was Prescott Bush.)

(On a side note; isn't it interesting that Prescott Bush's son George H. W. Bush became the head of the CIA and the Vice President and the President of the United States, and his grandson George W. Bush followed by also becoming the President of the United States? These people are extremely connected individuals, as I said before, intelligence agencies are connected to Wall Street and banking. It always has been.)

I. G. Farben also built up the industrial and war-making capabilities of Germany once the Nazis were in power while simultaneously attempting to restrict industrial production materials to countries marked for invasion by Nazi Germany, all of this to such a degree that all German board members other than Max Warburg were charged after World War II as war criminals. The I.G. Farben factories were carefully avoided by Allied bombers indicating they were protected, as was Max Warburg.

Another interesting bank to look at is UBS, which is a bank that at one time was associated with the Warburgs. It probably still is --- you can look into who the major shareholders of this bank are. See here and here for the controversies with money regarding the Holocaust and World War II.

============================================================================

Modern Israel could not have been established without the story of the “six million.” The creation of the Jewish state depended on the massive influx of Jews from all over the world

The Holocaust story has generated tens of billions of dollars of aid from the United States and even greater amounts from Germany in reparations. Perhaps most importantly, the Holocaust was the fuel
that fired the flame of Jewish Zionism all over the world. Recital of the Holocaust united Jews worldwide and elicited the huge monetary and political support necessary for the establishment and maintenance of Israel. After 50 years of almost unbroken conflict with the Palestinians and her Arab neighbors, Israel still relies heavily upon American and German support. Israel is America’s biggest annual recipient of foreign aid, just as it has been since her establishment. Constant harping on the Holocaust keeps the money flowing from both Jews and non-Jews and forms a subtle excuse for every injustice committed against the Arabs.

Nahum Goldmann, president of the World Jewish Congress, wrote a popular book called The Jewish Paradox, published by Grosset & Dunlap in 1978. Goldmann writes dramatically of the impact of
German reparations for Israel.

The Germans will have paid out a total of 80 billion…without the German reparations that started coming through during the first ten years as a state, Israel would not have half of its present
infrastructure: All the trains in Israel are German, the ships are German, and the same goes for electrical installations and a great deal of Israel’s industry. . . and that is setting aside the individual
pensions paid to survivors. Israel today receives hundreds of millions of dollars in German currency each year. . . . In some years the sums of money received by Israel from Germany has been as much as double or triple the contribution made by collections from international Jewry.

In this amazing book, Goldmann admits that even during the war the Zionists were planning war crimes trials and reparations from Germany.

During the war the WJC (World Jewish Congress) had created an Institute of Jewish Affairs in New York (its headquarters are now in London). The directors were two great Lithuanian Jewish Jurists, Jacob and Nehemiah Robinson. Thanks to them, the Institute worked out two completely revolutionary ideas: the Nuremberg tribunal and German reparations.

The Institute’s . . . idea was that Nazi Germany ought to pay after its defeat, …The German reparations would first have to be paid to people who had lost their belongings through the Nazis. Further, if, as we hoped, the Jewish state was created, the Germans would pay compensation to enable the survivors to settle there. The first time this idea was expressed was during the war, in the course of a conference in Baltimore.

The Nuremberg Trials were presented to the public as an effort by the Allies to levy justice on war criminals. In The Jewish Paradox, Goldmann admits that the Nuremberg Trials and the idea of German reparations were originated not by the Allies but by Zionists before any evidence of a Holocaust, and that the compensation would be vital to the foundation of Israel.

Since the Second World War, the Holocaust story has engendered tens of billions of dollars from the United States and even greater amounts from Germany in reparations. The staggering sum, easily exceeding $150 billion, would certainly provide a powerful motive to Israel and World Zionism to perpetuate the sensationalized Holocaust story.

Anyone who questions even the slightest detail of the Holocaust is a heretic who deserves scorn and derision at the least, but more preferably the loss of his livelihood and his imprisonment. The writings of the blasphemers must be confiscated and burned. If the heretical works somehow, even to a small degree, find their way to the public, the authors and their works must be systematically demeaned and ridiculed.

Not only is the holocaust taking on religious dimensions, it has become a huge world industry generating billions of dollars. The Holocaust story is the source of billions of dollars of reparations from Germany, billions more in American support and billions more in what can only be defined as a huge and powerful blackmail racket.

Norman Finkelstein, whose parents were holocaust survivors, wrote a book exposing the whole process called, The Holocaust Industry. In a recent interview with the magazine Counterpunch he spoke out quite courageously even though he has faced vicious attacks from the ADL
and other powerful Jewish organizations.

A spokesman for the World Jewish Congress suggested that you should be grateful to organizations such as themselves, for the compensation that your parents received. Is there not some truth in that were it not for the awareness raising campaigns of these bodies, holocaust survivors would not have been compensated at all?

These organizations frankly, bring to mind an insight of my late mother, that it is no accident that Jews invented the word "chutzpah". They steal, and I do use the word with intent, 95% of the monies earmarked for victims of Nazi persecution, and then throw you a few crumbs while telling you to be grateful. It is very hard to sink much lower than to turn the colossal suffering of the Jewish people during World War Two into an extortion racket. I really think
that not even Julius Streicher (leading anti-Semitic publisher in 1930's Germany) were he editing Der Stürmer today, could have conjured up the image of Jews huckstering their dead, but that's exactly what this gang of wretched crooks have done. 

They have disgraced the memory of the Jewish people's suffering on the one hand by turning it into an extortion racket. If there were any doubt left, I would point to the recent London Times article headlined 'Swiss Holocaust cash revealed to be a myth', that is all the claims against the Swiss banks were a fantastic concoction of the Holocaust hustlers. But then after turning Jewish suffering into an extortion racket to then deny the actual victims these monies extorted. It is very difficult to imagine sinking any lower on a moral level than that. If they were all put behind bars, it wouldn't be yet, in my opinion, be a just punishment.

Finklestein goes on to point out that if he were not Jewish his book would not have published at all.

Do you think The Holocaust Industry would have been published were you not the Jewish son of Holocaust survivors? (Laughs) No, I have no doubt about that. First of all, it just got
barely published as the son of Holocaust survivors. If I weren't, there would be no chance at all. I would have been buried alive. Just the other day I was speaking to someone who I cannot name for this interview, who met with a high government official in Germany who we both know. My friend asked him about the questions raised in my book concerning the number of surviving slave labourers, and whether the German government knew that the numbers had been grossly inflated to justify the extortion of huge amounts of money. His response was that 'of course we knew what he was saying was true', but a decision was made early on to go on with the blackmail because 'we were afraid of a huge anti-Semitic reaction being unleashed in Germany',

The Holocaust legend lives on, fueling intense ethnic solidarity among Jews and collective hatred toward Gentiles. Among Gentiles, the chronic replay of the Holocaust story destroys our most
elementary psychological defenses against Jewish Supremacism. Actually, the greatest holocaust born of ethnocentrism was the mass murder of tens of millions of Christians by the Jewish-led Bolsheviks in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe.

It seems sadly ironic so little is focused on that Holocaust of Holocausts. In our age, though, events and their significance are defined as supremacist Jews choose to define them. Holocaust terminology remains the exclusive preserve of the Jewish victims of the Second World War. The Jewish Holocaust is sacredly held apart from all other loss of life. There are Jews and then there is all the rest of humanity — the small “g” gentiles of the world.

Lies Elie Wiesel Told Us

For previous articles about Elie Wiesel, see here and here.

Wiesel constantly talked about peace, but he wrote an entire article in the Washington Post perversely arguing that the Western world needed to remove a democratically elected president in Syria.


By Jonas E. Alexis

“You know, I can lie and get away with it. Why should I not fool some people for a season?”

Science historian Nicholas Kollestrom, writes that Elie Wiesel should properly be called a “Messiah of the Holocaust” industry.[1] Gilad Atzmon calls him one of the priests of the Holocaust.[2] These titles are certainly apt descriptions of Wiesel’s entire political weltanschauung, for he was able to fool many people—from Oprah Winfrey to the deluded Christian Zionists. “Through Wiesel,” Jewish theologian and scholar Marc H. Ellis writes,

“Christians became heavily involved in the meaning of Holocaust suffering and support for the state of Israel without regard for the plight of Palestinians. Christians averted their eyes. Christians became corrupted through support of Jewish power against others.”

How did Wiesel, who has been called “a messenger to mankind” by Sara J. Bloomfield of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum,[3] ascend to the political throne? When did he become aware of his messiahship? Did he perform miracles? Was he involved in exorcism? Who crowned him?

Obviously, the media put Wiesel on the throne, not because he was able to produce scholarship and true stories but because he was able to propound one fantasy after another, which eventually became “truth” by the anointed elite and clowns like Obama, Merkel, and Bush. But what was Wiesel’s central message to his devoted followers?

“The Jew,” Wiesel declared, “has never been an executioner; he is almost always the victim.”[4] This messianic statement can never square well with the historical data at all. In fact, it is a bold lie which can only make sense in the minds of impostors like Wiesel.

Wiesel knew very well that the Bolshevik Revolution, a subversive ideology which ended up liquidating more than sixty million people,[5] was a largely Jewish movement.[6] Not even Winston Churchill, who was a thorough Zionist pawn, could deny this fact.[7] Jewish writer Sever Plocker wrote in 2006 that “the greatest Jewish murderer of the 20th Century” was none other than Genrikh Yagoda. Plocker continued:

“Yagoda diligently implemented Stalin’s collectivization orders and is responsible for the deaths of at least 10 million people. His Jewish deputies established and managed the Gulag system. After Stalin no longer viewed him favorably, Yagoda was demoted and executed, and was replaced as chief hangman in 1936 by Yezhov, the ‘bloodthirsty dwarf.’

“Many Jews sold their soul to the devil of the Communist revolution and have blood on their hands for eternity. We’ll mention just one more: Leonid Reichman, head of the NKVD’s special department and the organization’s chief interrogator, who was a particularly cruel sadist… In 1934, according to published statistics, 38.5 percent of those holding the most senior posts in the Soviet security apparatuses were of Jewish origin…

“We cannot escape the Jewishness of ‘our hangmen,’ who served the Red Terror with loyalty and dedication from its establishment.”[8]

Plocker is an honest man. It’s sad that Wiesel never got to meet him. But the Bolshevik Revolution didn’t stop in Soviet Russia. The same revolutionary ideology moved to China under the name of Maoism, and from 1958 to 1962, at least forty-five million people got exterminated.[9]

That’s not all. The revolutionary movement got transported to America under the name of Neoconservatism.[10] Again, what has been the end result? Perpetual wars, which led to massive deaths in the Middle East and massive debt in America.[11] We have also seen how the war in Iraq alone will cost the United States at least six trillion dollars.[12] And the same war is responsible for the rise of terrorist groups all over the region, most specifically ISIS.[13]

Wiesel declared, “To forget the dead would be akin to killing them a second time.”[14] How in the world did this man manage to forget millions upon millions of dead Russians and Chinese and Muslims and Arabs? Was he that blind, or was he just deliberately propounding complete nonsense in order to capitalize on the Holocaust industry?[15]

Moreover, shouldn’t this man be labeled a racist instead of “one of the most important spiritual leaders and guides in an age [of] violence, repression, and racism”[16]? Did he really wage “countless battles for innocent victims regardless of ethnicity or creed,” as the Chicago Tribune has recently posited?[17] Why should this man be called a “heroic humanitarian”[18]? Did the definition of a humanitarian change over the years? Does “heroic humanitarian” mean that you can whine about your own suffering at the expense of everyone else?

Dan Rather, one of the “big three” news anchors in the U.S. during the 1980s and all the way to the 2000s, declared on the day Wiesel passed away:

“Our global moral conscience has lost some of its strength today. The passing of Elie Wiesel is a reminder that arguably mankind’s darkest chapter is receding from the direct memory of those still alive. Wiesel was determined that those alive now, and those still yet unborn, should never forget the horrors of the Holocaust, horrors he witnessed personally and then shared with the world for the rest of his life.”[19]

Well, Mr. Rather, what about other Holocausts? Should we remember them as well? When are we going to build a museum for the Russian peasants, whom the Bolsheviks called “swine,” “dogs,” “cockroaches,” “scum,” “vermin,” “filth,” “garbage,” and even “half animal”?[20] What makes you so discriminatory? Some historians have estimated that between 10 to 20 million Chinese died during World War II.[21] Where is their Holocaust museum?

When Mao for example followed the Bolshevik philosophy, eminent historian Frank Dikotter of the University of Hong Kong tells us that “between 1958 and 1962, China descended into hell.”[22] In 1949, Mao went to Russia in order to learn from the Soviet Union, and from 1955-1956, he started to implement Stalin’s collectivization.[23]

Starvation was so rampant in China that a number of people began to eat human flesh.[24] In the summer of 1958, the famine was so horrible that “some people eventually dug up, boiled and ate human bodies. Soon the practice appeared in every region decimated by starvation, even in a relatively prosperous province such as Guangdong.”[25]

There were also instances where “several children were eaten.” Other terrible acts of cannibalism were widespread in places such as Tongwei, Yumen, Wushan, Jingning, and Wudu, and the communist leaders knew that these acts were taking place.[26]

In one place, for example, “a seventy-year-old woman unearthed the bodies of two small children and cooked them for herself.”[27] Other inhumane acts were widespread, such as tying a ten-year old and throwing him into a bog where he died after a few days.[28] Other people were left in the cold, naked, where many of them died—and even pregnant women were no exception.[29]

In other instances, excrement and urine were used as a punishment to cover people. One individual was forced to swallow excrement, and died a few weeks later.[30] Other punishment such as nailing people’s ears to the wall was also common.[31] Another extreme form of torture was burying people alive.[32]

As a result, in order to escape torture, many ended up taking their own lives.[33] For instance, “In Shantou a woman accused of theft tied her two children to her body before jumping into the river.”[34] So, where is Wiesel when you need him? Was he really interested in the truth?

Wiesel whined that people like him are always the victim, but Wiesel asked Obama to join Benjamin Netanyahu (the man who always tries to find an excuse to grab Palestinian lands[35]) to incite conflict with Iran. “Will you join me in hearing the case for keeping weapons from those who preach death to Israel and America?,” he asked.

A nuclear Iran, Wiesel moved on to say, would be a “catastrophic danger” to the Western world. “As one who has seen the enemies of the Jewish people make good on threats to exterminate us, how can I remain silent?” Wiesel and his brethren live in constant fear because they have abandoned truth and practical reason and have embraced an essentially diabolical system which can never produce peace and harmony in any metaphysical sense.

Moreover, Wiesel constantly talked about peace, but he wrote an entire article in the Washington Post arguing that the Western world needed to remove a democratically elected president in Syria.[36] He lied again by saying that the Assad government was killing its own people, when in fact Assad was and is still fighting ISIS and protecting whatever that is left in Syria. “Day after day,” he wrote, the Assad government and army “humiliate, frighten and kill scores of its citizens. Old and young, educated and ignorant, rich and poor: All have become targets.”[37]

There is one nagging problem here: Wiesel, because he was living in an imaginary universe, could not explain the fact that almost 90% of the population voted for Assad![38] So, the people knew that Assad was killing them, but they voted for him anyway? Does that make any sense at all? And did Wiesel really believe what he wrote? It should pain any rational human being when much of the media and political pawns ignore all these facts. Jewish scholar Norman Finkelstein writes:

“Mention of an Armenian genocide is therefore taboo. Elie Wiesel, Rabbi Arthur Hertzberg, as well as the AJC and Yad Vashem withdrew from the international conference on genocide in Tel Aviv because the academic sponsors, against Israeli government urging, included sessions on the Armenian case.

“Wiesel also sought, unilaterally, to abort the conference and, according to [historian] Yehuda Bauer, personally lobbied others not to attend. Acting at Israel’s behest, the US Holocaust Council practically eliminated mention of the Armenians in the Washington Holocaust Memorial Museum, and Jewish lobbyists in Congress blocked a day of remembrance for the Armenian genocide.”[39]

That’s not all. Wiesel was the man who endorsed a fake book called The Painted Bird, written by half-baked Jerzy Kosinski. As Finkelstein puts it, it was “the first major Holocaust hoax” in the twentieth century.

“In the New York Times Book Review, Elie Wiesel acclaimed The Painted Bird as ‘one of the best’ indictments of the Nazi era, ‘written with a deep sincerity and sensitivity…’ Long after Kosinski was exposed as a consummate literary hoaxer, Wiesel continued to praise his ‘remarkable body of work.’”[40]

Here is more bad news: “The Painted Bird became a basic Holocaust text. It was a best-seller and award-winner, translated into numerous languages, and required reading for high school and college classes.”[41]

So, does Wiesel deserve to be called “one of the great moral voices of our time,” as Obama has said?[42] Shouldn’t he be called one of the greatest jokers of the twenty-first century so far? Should we really honor a man who fabricated many of his stories in books like Night?[43]

Wiesel declared that at the age of eighteen, when he was free from Buchenwald, “I read the Critique of Pure Reason—don’t laugh!—in Yiddish.” Finkelstein writes, “Leaving aside Wiesel’s acknowledgment that at the time ‘I was wholly ignorant of Yiddish grammar,’ The Critique of Pure Reason was never translated into Yiddish.”[44]

---

In short, Wiesel’s stories are nothing but a little bit of truth here and there in a torrent of colossal hoaxes and fabrications. As noted journalist Alexander Cockburn put it after a long investigation:

“Wiesel made things up, in a way that his many subsequent detractors could identify as not untypical of his modus operandi: grasping with deft assurance what people important to his future would want to hear and, by the same token, would not want to hear.”[45]

If Night is “one of the most powerful achievements in Holocaust literature,” as the LA Time has put it,[46] then the Western intellectual tradition and historical scholarship have been completely obliterated.

And if the LA Times, other media outlets and even Benjamin Netanyahu[47] continue to exonerate Wiesel as a saint, Jewish scholar Sara Roy of Harvard, whose parents survived Auschwitz and who has written extensively on the Israeli occupation in the Gaza Strip,[48] is not impressed. After Wiesel defended Israel’s crimes against the Palestinians, Roy wrote in 2014:

“I am appalled by your anti-Palestinian position, one I know you have long held. I have always wanted to ask you, why? What crime have Palestinians committed in your eyes? Exposing Israel as an occupier and themselves as its nearly defenseless victims? Resisting a near half-century of oppression imposed by Jews and through such resistance forcing us as a people to confront our lost innocence (to which you so tenaciously cling)?

“Unlike you, Mr. Wiesel, I have spent a great deal of time in Gaza among Palestinians. In that time, I have seen many terrible things and I must confess I try not to remember them because of the agony they continue to inflict.  I have seen Israeli soldiers shoot into crowds of young children who were doing nothing more than taunting them, some with stones, some with just words. I have witnessed too many horrors, more than I want to describe.

“But I must tell you that the worst things I have seen, those memories that continue to haunt me, insisting never to be forgotten, are not acts of violence but acts of dehumanization.”[49]

The late Christopher Hitchens himself had this to say about this impostor: 

“Is there a more contemptible poseur and windbag than Elie Wiesel? I suppose there may be. But not, surely, a poseur and windbag who receives (and takes as his due) such grotesque deference on moral questions… [Wiesel] was a member of Menachem Begin’s Irgun in the 1940s, when that force employed extreme violence against Arab civilians and was more than ready to use it against Jews.”[50]

Wiesel Words (An Article about Elie Wiesel) by CHRISTOPHER HITCHENS

For another article about the credibility of Elie Wiesel, see here. February 19, 2001 MINORITY REPORT Wiesel Words by CHRISTOPHER HITCHENS IS THERE a more contemptible poseur and windbag than Elie Wiesel? I suppose there may be. But not, surely, a poseur and windbag who receives (and takes as his due) such grotesque deference on moral questions. Look, if you will, at his essay on Jerusalem in the New York Times of January 24. As a Jew living in the United States, I have long denied myself the right to intervene in Israel's internal debates.... My critics have their conception of social and individual ethics; I have mine. But while I grant them their right to criticize, they sometimes deny mine to abstain. Such magnificent condescension, to grant his critics the right. And it is not certain from when Wiesel dates his high-minded abstention from Israel's internal affairs; he was a member of Menachem Begin's Irgun in the 1940s, when that force employed extreme violence against Arab civilians and was more than ready to use it against Jews. At all events, his dubious claim above is only a pompous preface to discarding nonintervention in the present because Jerusalem is at stake, and "the fact that I do not live in Jerusalem is secondary; Jerusalem lives within me." (Again the modesty.) There are, sad to say, serpents in Wiesel's internal Eden, and they too must be patronized: That Muslims might wish to maintain close ties with this city unlike any other is understandable. Although its name does not appear in the Koran, Jerusalem is the third holiest city in Islam. But for Jews, it remains the first. Not just the first; the only. "Might wish." "Ties." "Understandable." "Third holiest." Even these lordly and dismissive gestures clearly cost Wiesel something. After all, he announces that the city is "mentioned more than 600 times in the Bible," which (assuming for a moment that one ought to think like a religious fundamentalist in the first place) would give a Christian Arab -- these being at least 15 percent of the Palestinian population -- quite a strong claim on the old place. (Incidentally, let me ask any reader how often the city is mentioned in the Torah.) But for Wiesel all Arabs are Muslims, and even if they happen to live in Jerusalem, this is nothing to the way that Jerusalem dwells within Wiesel. Indeed, it would evidently dwell more comfortably within him if they did not live in it at all. Do I exaggerate? I don't think so. In a propaganda tour of recent history, he asserts that in 1948, "incited by their leaders, 600,000 Palestinians left the country convinced that, once Israel was vanquished, they would be able to return home." This claim is a cheap lie and is known by Wiesel to be a lie. It is furthermore an utterly discredited lie, and one that Israeli officialdom no longer cares to repeat. Israeli and Jewish historians have exposed it time and again: Every Arab broadcasting station in the region, in 1947 as well as 1948, was monitored and recorded and transcribed by the BBC, and every Arab newspaper has been scoured, and not one instance of such "incitement," in direct speech or reported speech, has ever come to light. The late historian and diplomat Erskine Childers issued an open challenge on the point as far back as the 1950s that was never taken up and never will be. And of course, the lie is a Big Lie, because Expulsion-Denial lies at the root of the entire problem and helps poison the situation to this day. (When Israel's negotiators gingerly discuss the right of return, at least they don't claim to be arguing about ghosts, or Dead Souls.) In a brilliant reply to Wiesel published in Vesti, Israel's largest Russian-language paper, Israel Shamir compares him rather leniently not to Jabotinsky but to the Knight of the Doleful Countenance and his mad quest for purity: Be reasonable, old man. Stay within the frame of the story and within the bounds of common decency. Don Quixote did not drive his jeep into Toboso to rape his old flame. OK, you loved her, and thought about her, but it does not give you the right to kill her children, bulldoze her rose garden and put your boots on her dining-room table. Shamir speaks of the beautiful city that Palestinians centuries ago "adorned with a magnificent piece of jewelry, the Golden Dome of Haram al-Sharif, built their houses with pointed arches and wide porches, and planted cypresses and palm trees." He's wasting his time on Wiesel, who says that Palestine was a desert before he arrived there as one of Begin's thugs, and who slanders the people he helped dispossess, first by falsely saying that they ran away from their beloved ancestral hometown and second by disputing their right even to feel nostalgia for it. In 1982, after Gen. Ariel Sharon had treated the inhabitants of the Sabra and Shatila camps as target practice for his paid proxies, Wiesel favored us with another of his exercises in neutrality. Asked by the New York Times to comment on the pogrom, he was one of the few American Jews approached on the matter to express zero remorse. "I don't think we should even comment," he said, proceeding to comment bleatingly that he felt "sadness -- with Israel, and not against Israel." For the victims, not even a perfunctory word. As I write, it looks as if the same Sharon will become Israel's prime minister. If you recall, he occupied West Beirut in September 1982, after the assassination of the Maronite Prime Minister Bashir Gemayel, on the announced and highly believable pretext that Palestinian civilians would need protection from Phalangist reprisal. He then sent into their undefended camps the most extreme faction of the Phalangist militia and backed up the dirty work of these notorious fascists with flares during the night, and rear-guard cover during the day, for thirty-six hours before having them escorted out in triumph and thanked for their work. In other words, the bulk of US overseas military aid is about to be lavished on a man who stood with hands on hip, in belt and boots and steel helmet and binoculars, and saw a mound of human corpses rise, and who thought it good. For this outcome, the soil has been manured by the beautiful thoughts of Elie Wiesel.
