Six Million vs. the Indecent, Filthy, Uncircumcised
(Who Should Be Made to Attend Anti-Semites Anonymous)
by Stojgniev O’Donnell
This week I viewed a program broadcast on one of the state-owned television networks, known for its bias towards the leftist government and all varieties of political correctness. The program paid homage to Shevah Weiss, current Israeli ambassador to Poland. Weiss, who speaks Polish, was born in 1935 in what was then Poland (today Ukraine) and he emigrated to Israel in 1947. Weiss was shown traveling around Poland, and much of the program consisted of a monologue in which he lectured Poland and Poles on their moral failings.
Since the final decades of the twentieth century, political power in America and the West has been about victimization. As Ambassador Weiss demonstrated in his sermon on Poland, the most skillful practitioners of victimization are the Jews. No one can trump their moral superiority. As the Jews love to remind us and as schools, public institutions, films, books and the news media preach to us, the Jews are not only the “Light of the Nations”, but they are an eternal reminder of humanity’s moral failings. Jews and the rest of the world represent a dichotomy. The Jews are decency, reason, intelligence, temperance, in short, “civilization”, in the face of the rest of mankind’s depravity, backwardness, irrationality, primitiveness, drunkenness. And the latter qualities characterize each and every person who criticizes, opposes, or refuses to support their constant demands for wealth, power and recognition. (Imagine the joy of the Jews if there existed an “Anti-Semites Anonymous,” where all the goyish folk were required to take a deep look inside themselves and meditate on the moral deficiencies of their goyishness, then paraded in public and made to admit loudly “I am an ‘anti-Semite’. I am indecent, dirty, depraved, uncircumcised…”).
Yet the Jewish interpretation of history, which bears witness to the moral superiority of the Jew and the depravity of everybody else, is more parable than historical truth. Jews aren’t interested in historical facts. We frequently hear that the Jews were expelled en masse from many countries of the Old World. We never hear why they were expelled. (It is a coincidence that those nasty, indecent monarchs always picked on the Jews). Jewish disregard for historical truth is seen in their tally of the Jewish victims of the Second World War. The figure of six million, widely accepted today despite the fact that the millions of dollars spent on research have failed to turn up six million names, is nothing but a metaphor for Jewish suffering. Six million, in fact, was the cabalistic number Jews were already using at the start of the twentieth century to refer to the “suffering Jews” of Russia. It has nothing to do with history. I don’t deny the Nazis executed Jews (and other groups as well), but I am outraged that Jews have never shown serious interest in determining the actual number of Jewish deaths, which at any rate, never totaled six million. After all, why do American taxpayers fund “Holocaust museums” and why all those “Jewish Studies” programs at universities? But only someone totally lacking in decency would dare question the number of six million.
No one plays the game of victimization like the Jews. That is seen in Poland, a country that has experienced more than its share of historical tragedy. One of the goals of the Nazis was to wipe their Polish neighbors from the face of the earth and take their country. As anyone who has had dealings with Poles and with Jews understands, however, the Poles weren’t at the top of the Nazis’ list. The Jews were.
In America, where the Jews are very, very powerful and Polish-Americans have practically no power, the Jews have been successful in recent decades, through their “Holocaust museums” and also the schools and the media, in demonizing the Poles. Thus we hear about “Polish concentration camps” (i.e. camps established in Poland during the Nazi occupation where the first victims were in fact Poles, not Jews). Americans have been educated about “Polish collaboration” with the Nazis. One of the most brilliant tools that has been devised in that campaign is the book Neighbors: The Destruction of the Jewish Community in Jedwabne, Poland (Princeton, 2001) by Jan T. Gross. A sociologist who at some point in his career started writing history (the Jewish variety), Gross claims that in 1941, the Polish residents of the Nazi-occupied village of Jedwabne locked 1,600 local Jews in a barn and set the barn afire. Numerous Polish historians have disputed Gross’s claims, and it is a controversial topic in Poland. For Poles, Jedwabne is a provocation, a symbol of the Jews’ traditional perfidy in Poland, a defiling of the memory of Polish suffering during and after the War. In the tradition of The Painted Bird by Jerzy Kosinski (born: Jerzy Lewinkopf) and Claude Lanzmann’s film Shoah, Jedwabne is just the latest in a clever, long-running Jewish public relations campaign to slander Poland.
The Poles had the misfortune to endure not just the Nazis, but also the Soviets. After Poland was betrayed by America and the West, the Soviets occupied postwar Poland. Many of the Soviets who came to Poland were Jewish, just as many Jews during the War had supported the Soviets. In establishing their communist puppet government, the Soviets recruited much of the bureaucracy and the state police from the Jewish population that had remained in Poland. Whereas the struggle with the Nazis had been rather straightforward, under Soviet rule the Poles were subjected to ideological terror. (Near the end of the War the Soviet army approached the capital of Warsaw, giving Poles to believe they were coming to their rescue. And then when the Poles of Warsaw rose up against the Nazis, the Soviet army halted and waited patiently at a distance until the Nazis had decimated the whole city).
Postwar Poles were embittered that in the front ranks of those attempting to destroy their national traditions and their Church were their Jewish neighbors, many of whom had been sheltered during the War by Polish Catholics. As one might expect, Polish resentment towards the Jews was considerable. As soon as the Soviet grip on Poland relaxed, Poles gave vent to their emotions, and many Jews, nearly all connected in some way to the Soviet-imposed communist government, decided to emigrate to Israel. Of course, as “victims of anti-Semitism” who were “driven out” of the country by indecent, hateful primitives. Near tears, Ambassador Weiss reminded his viewers of that. Poles couldn’t emigrate anywhere, and they had to stay and endure the nightmare of a dictatorship they associated with Jews and with the Jewish contempt for their nation. Jewish support of the communists, in Poland as well as in other countries, is fiercely denied by Jews. The topic is taboo in academe, where all the “scholarly studies” published on the topic “prove” that it’s all just another “myth of anti-Semitism.”
Americans don’t like to be confused by a historical plot so convoluted, and most have accepted the version of Jedwabne propagated by Gross and American Jews. On television Ambassador Weiss was near to bawling when he discussed Jedwabne. He didn’t say it, but I suspect he wants Poland and the Poles to pay for Jedwabne, maybe at some opportune date in the future. (The Polish economy is not healthy right now). Yet I am convinced that Jedwabne, the Jewish symbol not the historical truth, causes many Jews to rejoice in their hearts. For it is their ultimate trump of Poland. Jedwabne is “proof” that Poland was not a victim of the War. In fact, Poland was on the same side as the Nazis in that great dichotomy of Jewish morality. Poles can’t be victims, because only the Jews are victims. And for me to deny that is to reveal my indecency in all its goyish crudity. But as one who honors history, I am revolted by Jewish dishonesty and disregard for historical truth. I am convinced that if the gypsies are ever seen by the Jews as a threat, then one day we will hear about a new “scholarly study”, widely praised by academics and the media and written by a brilliant Jewish author who has uncovered some new evidence of gypsy compliance with the Nazis during the War. And lest we forget, we will be reminded then of the six million.
