A reader says:

Dear Mr Barrett,

I value your analyses, but I would suggest that the very telling quotation of Netanyahu in the image you offer, would be even more powerful if you produced references and explanations.

All the best,

R.

Here is a summary, from: https://www.theinteldrop.org/2022/11/14/bibi-trump-assad-saddam-finks-bar-the-shocking-truth-behind-covid-19/

"In 1990, after returning to Israel and after being Israel’s UN ambassador in New York, and before the First Gulf War, Bibi Netanyahu was in Jerusalem at Fink’s Bar – dining and drinking with high level U.S. Embassy staff and others.

"

Bibi and his loyalist group at a Fink’s Bar private table in Jerusalem had just stolen five (5) NSA-developed KG-84A cryptographic devices in Golan Heights (with help from Canadians serving with the United Nations Truce Supervision Organization), giving Bibi, his loyalists and others real-time access to all U.S. State Department, U.S. Navy and NATO communications.

"This is what Bibi Netanyahu said while sitting at the head of that private table in Fink’s Bar (transcribed from a secretly recorded audio of Netanyahu at that meeting )...."

The attendee who transcribed and leaked the audio, possibly with the help of one or more other attendees, is:

"Colonel James Hanke is a VT Director and US Army Special Forces (Ret.) Colonel Hanke is a Former G2 Third Army, NATO Nuclear Weapons Commander, Attache to Israel, A-Team Leader Vietnam, and a Director of Operations, at Adamus Defense Group, Switzerland."

I spoke to Col. Hanke in a group call with Gordon Duff several years ago and he confirmed the story.

I can relate to both Ms. Brown and Simon Whatisheus? When I was as young as Ms. Brown, I was stupid enough to think I was smart. Now I'm smart enough to know I'm stupid. As for Simon, I'm a machinist and worked in manufacturing for 45 years so I understand the contempt people with degrees exhibit, especially to someone with an ski at the end of their name. Living in such a fragile moment is putting demands on all of us that I'm not certain we're capable of dealing with without becoming something we'd rather not, even though that may be the most basic part of what we are.

Interesting from the preface of "The Invention of the Jewish People," by Jewish Israeli historian Shlomo Sand: "In writing this book, in my great naivete, I set out in search of scholarly work on the exile of the Jewish population from ancient Judea/Palestine. I remember hours spent on this pursuit at Tel Aviv University library and on the Internet. As I could not find a single research work on the subject, I approached historians who were specialists in antiquity to ask for their help. Their answer was succinct: there was no book on this subject because the Judeans were not uprooted by force; they simply emigrated and dispersed following the repression of the great revolts. Surprised by this answer, I asked them for a bibliography on the mass emigration. I was told that, given the scarcity of evidence, it was impossible to conduct any research. .... The inhabitants of Judea, being agriculturalists, never abandoned their land, because peasants do not give up their vital resources unless they are absolutely forced to do so by great poverty and famine. There is no evidence of camps of emigrants and refugees clustered on the borders of Judea at the time or of Jewish Aramaic- or Hebrew-speaking colonies on the Mediterranean coast. Unlike the Greeks and Phoenicians, the inhabitants of Judea were not navigators." These passages come after Sand says he'd already been convinced of the historical invalidity of the biblical legends of the exodus from Egypt or the existence of Solomon's great kingdom.

Wow. A double smackdown.

Brown or browne, that is the question. A Gen Ulysses is overdue, if Kentucky fried chicken does not revert to its Colonels roots, Alaska will revert to Rum much sooner than eschatologically forecast.

I agree about Kaitlin. She misses the point and it’s just a rag on the American empire that gains no traction because it doesn’t really deal with the issue, which is the blindness, the incomprehensible blindness of Jewish people. So, I’m watching Oppenheimer movie and he is obsessed with Hitler and can’t seem to comprehend that the communists were a problem. It’s kind of the same thing going on now. I don’t expect any Palestinian or Muslim person to forgive the U.S. for their atrocious policies toward the Middle East. And it doesn’t even matter that there were those of us who opposed them. I realize that is not the way the world is—probably not everyone who followed Mongolians into conquests was bad, bad… no but that made no difference in the end. Israel has dragged us into their conflict for years and that is where we sit. We’ll go down into the abyss with our friend that as Scott Ritter has pointed out and now you, is really not a friend. Oh well...

Sounds like Barry;s been kissing the ass of the mighty Jews in charge, doesn't it?

My great grand mother on my mother's side was Jewish and fled Europe because of the hatred against Jews. Until the little angry Jews understand the anger against Jews comes from what the wealthy Jews are doing, and do something about it, nothing will change.

Having Jewish Voices for Peace call for a ceasefire is only part of the solution, and only part of the problem.

Joe Biden is obviously compromised by his behavior. He took showers with his daughter, so we can only imagine what kind of dirt they have on him. So holding the elite accountable is the real problem, we have. And since Jews run the media and the courts (and cyber insecurity), what can we do Barry other than tell the truth about the big Jews.

That's an interesting coincidence. My mom thinks my great-great grandmother on her side might have been Jewish. She fled Germany due to some kind of presumably political persecution.

I don't think Barry is kissing up to anybody though. I think he just has some very common preconceptions.

First, I am sickened to my depths by what the Zionists have been doing and are now doing in Palestine. But while this piece on Jewish supremacy may cater to Kevin's supporters, supercilious Simus Cognitius is overboard.

He states and restates: "The history of the Jewish Diaspora is a history of Jewish people exploiting the other citizens of the societies they have lived among, until those societies have grown so resentful of being exploited by Jewish people that they have expressed their anger by expelling their Jewish exploiters from their midst, often tragically using deadly violence as a tool to enforce expulsion."

Or more nonsensically: "[T]he tragic history of the Jewish Diaspora is a history of the Jewish people being punished, justly or not, 'for cause', (rather than arbitrarily) . . ." Justly or not? What would unjustly for cause amount to? Rather close to arbitrary, n'est-pas?

More of the same: "Throughout the history of the Jewish Diaspora, Jewish people have worked together, as a culturally insular 'tribe', to gain a hugely outsized degree of social, economic, and political power, in every society they have lived among."

And then: "[W]e are talking about the determination of 16 million Jewish people, who dominate the US Empire, and who openly consider themselves as 'God's favorite people' . . ." I am a Jewish American. I find the notion that Jews are "God's favorite people" to be ridiculous. And I despise the US Empire ever since I devoted myself to opposing the Vietnam War (which war certainly cannot be attributed to Jewish domination).

And then: "What Jewish people have now so successfully done in the US, is exactly what they've done, or tried to do, in EVERY society they've lived among, for all these 2000 years since the Romans recognized the pattern and kicked them out of Palestine. (Can you name a single exception?)"

Can I name a single exception? I need look no further than my own ancestry. All four of my grandparents fled pogroms perpetrated by Cossacks (today's neo-Nazis in Ukraine) in retaliation for the Jews killing Christ or something. Think Fiddler on the Roof. Who, pray tell, were the Ashkenazi Jews in Fiddler on the Roof exploiting? Same question as to the Sephardic Jews under the Spanish Inquisition?

Kevin, you can do better than endorsing the likes of Simus Cognitius.

Well, Barry, I think Simus Cognitius's statements are broad-brush generalizations that obviously don't tell the whole story. But they tell (in broad brushstrokes) part of the story—the part that has been airbrushed out of mainstream Western culture since World War II. I strongly urge you to explore the Unz material I linked: https://www.unz.com/page/jews-nazis-and-israel-articles/ A good place to start is the recent piece: https://www.unz.com/runz/zionism-anti-semitism-racialism/

Again: “Jewish Diaspora is a history of Jewish people exploiting the other citizens of the societies they have lived among, until those societies have grown so resentful of being exploited by Jewish people that they have expressed their anger by expelling their Jewish exploiters from their midst …”

No, Kevin. That’s not broad-brush or any other kind of brush of a valid statement whatsoever. We go from the horror of what Israel is doing in Gaza to Simus’s connecting this evil with millennia of Jewish wrongdoing. Oh, that makes sense – never mind that it has no basis in historical fact. The articles in the Unz Review you linked me to substantiate nothing in Simus’s millennia of Jewish wrongdoing. (Avoid conflating Rothschilds et al with the Jewish people.)

Again, here’s his indictment: “Jewish people have worked together, as a culturally insular 'tribe', to gain a hugely outsized degree of social, economic, and political power, in every society they have lived among."

I will leave it up to you , Kevin, to critique that bit of foolishness.

Here’s the irony. Just as it is invalid to equate anti-Zionism with anti-semitism, so it is invalid to equate Zionist wrongdoing with Jewish wrongdoing.

I think that statement is an exaggeration (EVERY society?!) but it has a basis of truth. What it misses is that the way "Jewish people" have "worked together" has been based on tribal brainwashing inflicted on ordinary Jewish people by their elites. The best historical account is Guyenot's From Yahweh to Zion. It shows how Zionism is a culmination of, and not a deviation from, the 2500 year old Jewish cultural tradition of hatred and exploitation of the Other, created by traumatic mind-control inflicted on ordinary Jews by their elites. That, of course, is not the whole story of Judaism and Jewish identity, but it is a significant part of it. Stuart Seldowitz is hardly atypical. One of my Jewish friends has described how his brother moved to Israel "to kill Arabs" and I've heard the same thing second-hand about other Jewish families having members who did the same thing. That kind of ingrained hatred of the tribal enemy seems to be part of every Jewish holiday, and obviously was around long before Israel existed.
