Trump has made a U-turn. Instead of his usual TACO [Trump Always Chickens Out], he chose TITS – Trump Illustrates Terrific Sanity, as said an internet wit. He switched off the Purim War Against Iran, like a housewife turning off her gas stove. The wily Iranians followed Trump’s U-turn, ensuring it’s actually done. The most important result of this debacle: the frog of Israel that tried to compete with the ox of Iran had burst, as Aesop predicted. Israel really believed in his own fairy tale of superiority, of its world hegemony, of its control over the US, until reality came into the picture and slapped its face. Israel has actually been forced to cease killing the Lebanese people. This is a great historical turning point, giving us yet another opportunity to wake the world from its Hollywood fantasy of eternal Jewish might and eternal Jewish victimhood.
It’s not the first event of this kind. Many times, Jews have been stopped just at the brink of total victory. “Keshekvar kim’at”, – in the words of an Israeli song: you always ruin it when we’ve almost won. Putin ended the Seven Bankers’ Rule, by jailing the richest and most powerful of them, oil king Khodorkovsky, and exiling two others, media-lords Berezovsky and Gusinsky. Stalin ended the Jewish Terror by imprisoning the head executioner, Interior Minister Yahoda, and dismissing Foreign Minister Litvinov. So much about Jewish dominance in Russia, as some of the readers claim.
Perhaps we should explain the special Jewish role in empires. The Jews were for hundreds of years traditionally compradors or middlemen; meaning they served their foreign masters and extracted goods from the natives. In long gone times, they served their Polish landlords by forcing the Ukrainian peasants to work harder. It was said (by Jewish historians, of course) that Jews squeezed six times more wealth out of the Ukraine than the Poles ever could. When Western Europe was getting recolonised by the US after WW2, Jews switched to serving the US – but still making the natives miserable. When East Europe was subjugated by the USSR (after its liberation from the German rule), the Jews there served the USSR and ruled over the natives on behalf of the Soviets. They were so awful that the natives rebelled, as in Hungary in 1956, or expelled the Jews, as in Poland in 1967. Thus, Jews have always been a subsidiary force that always hoped to seize the commanding heights – and always failed.
All the important countries of Western Europe were subjugated under US rule after the WWII. Along with the US army came the Jews, as the bearers of the new American policies. The Jews added two techniques particular to them in the process of colonisation. One, de-Christianisation, as Jews traditionally are strongly anti-Christian. Two, encouragement of mass immigration. The Jews had a valid reason to prefer it. In the normal European order of things, the Jews (and Gypsies) stuck out as foreign element. However, in multicultural Europe, Jews would be only one of many different communities.
My most charitable understanding of Trump, especially in the Middle East, is the highlighted paragraph above. This appears to be exactly what he has been doing. It’s a classic Trump move. Shamir’s discussion of the Jewish role in Western history is well-stated and not new. It has also served as an ex post facto excuse for bad Jewish behavior, paired as ever with their false claims of victimhood. That said, if Trump’s actions in the ME and elsewhere are signaling a weakening or end to Jewish control over Western policy, we all should rejoice, including all sane Jews. ABN
