This leaflet was published by the fanatical anti-Semite Arnold Leese. Leese blamed the Jews not only for the Second World War but for everything from ritual murder to fluoridation, so it is easy to dismiss him as a bigot and a nutter, but the claim has more than a grain of truth in it.
This article graced the front page of the Jewish Chronicle for June 21, 1940. Which means that more than a year before Pearl Harbour, and after Leese published his leaflet, British propagandists and Zionist hatemongers were doing their best to drag the United States into a war which, less than a month later, Hitler himself said he could see no reason to continue. One should bear in mind here also that this candid example of hatemongering was in the public domain. Like the proverbial iceberg, ninety per cent of Zionist mendacity is hidden from sight. One can only wonder what machinations went on between the British and Imperial Zion to drag the Americans into a war which not only did the vast majority of them not want, but which they had nothing to gain and everything to lose by entering – the finest flower of their youth. (81)
On September 11, 1941, in an historic speech at Des Moines, Iowa, the famous aviator and Chairman of the America First Committee, Charles Lindbergh, accused the British, the Jews and the Roosevelt Administration of dragging the United States towards war. (82) In that order. His speech was roundly condemned as anti-Semitic, yet no one has ever successfully refuted the main thrust of his claim. Less than three months later, the United States entered the war. (83)
The British would have done well to heed Hitler’s offer of July 19, 1940, because if they had called a temporary cease-fire, the fighting would undoubtedly not have resumed, and the Holocaust, whatever it was, would not have happened, as well as countless Gentile lives being spared on both sides. But of course, if the war had been ended, the Zionists would never have been able to establish their beloved Israel, and just as significantly, Churchill would have been thrown out of office.
In retrospect, Hitler was neither the monster he was subsequently made out to be, nor such a bad guy, his overt anti-Semitism excepted. After rejecting his magnanimous offer and continuing the senseless, bloody, fratricidal conflict, the British got their just reward when, while they were still busy saving the Jews of Europe from the gas chambers, and in the middle of the bloodiest conflict in history, their Zionist buddies double-crossed them and began a campaign of terror and murder in Palestine. And when finally Hitler’s tyranny was defeated by military means – in preference to a negotiated settlement – the Allies carved up Germany and Europe, handing over vast tranches of both to a far worse tyranny, Soviet Communism. A negotiated settlement with Nazi Germany would surely have been preferable because Nazism could have been used as a bulwark against communism, and undoubtedly, Hitler would have seen the error of his ways and the Nazi régime could have been liberalised by the carrot of Western democracy rather than by the stick of a Zionist-inspired boycott. Even if Hitler himself couldn’t have been kicked into line, who is to say he couldn’t have been overthrown by encouraging more moderate elements? US foreign policy since 1945 has consisted of precious little else; it was the CIA who backed Saddam Hussein for instance (see next paragraph), who may be many things, but moderate?
The former scenario – winning the war and losing the peace – has been repeated many times throughout recent history, which prompted American Revisionist Historian Harry Elmer Barnes to coin the phrase perpetual war for perpetual peace. Undoubtedly the most tragic example in recent memory is the Gulf War. In his 1991 study The Death Lobby, Middle East watcher Ken Timmerman reveals how Saddam Hussein, who was once said to have had the fourth most formidable army in the world, was built by Western governments and arms firms. (84) Arms dealers came from far and wide and literally tripped over each other in the lobbies of Baghdad’s shabby hotels.
When George Bush was in charge of the CIA, he treated Saddam as his pet alligator. Saddam was given the green light by the Americans to invade Kuwait, but, after doing so, he was denounced as a new Hitler, and the resultant crushing of Iraq led to a hundred thousand dead, perhaps many more, yet like Hitler, his invasion had been virtually bloodless, a mere handful of people were killed by the Iraqi invasion. (85)
We are still repeating the folly of perpetual wars for perpetual peace. With the demise of the Soviet Union, the United States has taken on the role of the world’s policeman. There can be no doubt that, unlike both the British/Zionist hate campaign against Nazi Germany and the destruction of Iraq, this is a policy the United States has embarked on with the best of intentions, but its results have already borne evil fruit. The loony left, including in Britain the Socialist Workers Party, condemns United States intervention in foreign countries as Imperialism; by the same token it condemns non-intervention – leaving the masses of Africa to starve – as callous indifference, and, of course, racism. But the sin of omission is surely the lesser of evils.
We must include one final example, that of the current conflict in the former Yugoslavia. At the time of writing, November 1994, the United States has just announced that it will no longer enforce the arms embargo against the Moslems. This course of action has been roundly condemned in Europe, but whatever course of action the United States or any country takes, is unenviable. If they continue to enforce this embargo they can be attacked for allowing genocide, (the Moslems are or have been poorly armed). If they don’t enforce it, they can be attacked for prolonging or even promoting the war. And of course, making enormous profits out of it – another example of the evils of capitalism. Finally, if they try to halt the war by sending in a peace-keeping force, as is also happening, innocent soldiers (observers or whatever) of non-combatant nations are put in jeopardy, and indeed are being killed regularly. In such a position there appear to be no lesser evils. But this was not the case with
World War Two, and the continued demonising of Nazism and Hitler and the absolving of both the Zionists and the British (the former under threat of being branded anti-Semitic) does not augur well for the future. Those who cannot remember the past and thereby learn from their mistakes are doomed forever to repeat them.
