22. How does the "Holocaust" benefit the state of Israel?

Quite simply:

No brainwash cycle - no Holocaust.

No Holocaust - no Reparations or Guilt money.

No money - chances are, no Israel!


A bit of background history, paraphrased here from the various segments of the "Transfer Agreement":

Diplomats from around the world were told in June 1937 that a Jewish state in Palestine would not be in Germany's best interest because it would not be able to absorb all the Jews from around the world. Such a state would only serve as an additional power base for international Jewry, in much the same way that Moscow served as a base for international Communism.

A German Foreign Office circular bulletin of June 22, 1937, further cautioned that, in spite of support for Jewish settlement in Palestine,

". . . it would nevertheless be a mistake to assume that Germany supports the formation of a state structure in Palestine under some form of Jewish control. In view of the anti-German agitation of international Jewry, Germany cannot agree that the formation of a Palestine Jewish state would help the peaceful development of the nations of the world."


Furthermore, an internal memorandum by the Jewish affairs section of the SS warned that the proclamation of a Jewish state or a Jewish-administrated Palestine would create for Germany a new enemy, one that would have a deep influence on developments in the Near East.

Yet another SS agency predicted that a Jewish state

". . . would work to bring special minority protection to Jews in every country, therefore giving legal protection to the exploitation activity of world Jewry."


In January 1939, Hitler's new Foreign Minister, Joachim von Ribbentrop, likewise warned in yet another circular bulletin that

"Germany must regard the formation of a Jewish state as dangerous" because it 'would bring an international increase in power to world Jewry.'"


For those unfortunately borne-out dire warnings, and other policies and actions, the top leaders of the Third Reich were hanged, thanks to the largely fabricated story of a genocidal 'Holocaust'. Shortly afterwards, and to the detriment of many, Israel was formed and achieved statehood in 1948.

.....

It has been a parasite among nations ever since. It has been feeding off World War II's victors as well as its losers. The origins of this parasitic enterprise can be found in several books: "The Transfer Agreement" by Edwin Black, "The Jewish Paradox" by Nahum Goldman, "Germany's Path to Israel and West-German Reparations to Israel" by Nicholas Balabkins, "The German Path to Israel" by Rolf Vogel, and a very recently published volume that only a Jew would have dared to have written, entitled "The Seventh Million" by Tom Segev.

These publications show how the State of Israel came about - by hook and crook, by cunning, conniving and scheming - that is, by peddling fabricated atrocities, inflated numbers of victims, lies about "genocide" etc. This is why the Holocaust is so enormously useful in that it turns two praiseworthy, productive countries, the USA and Germany, into virtual cash cows for Israel's self-indulgent rulers and its spoiled citizenry.

Take just the budget for "Fiscal Year 1997 - U.S. Aid to Israel" as reported in The Washington Report on Middle East Affairs, March 1997, p 39:

Israel has already received over $120 BILLION DM from Germany for crimes Germans never committed - Who will pay reparations to the poor Arab victims of Israeli militarism and terrorism?

According to an article by Donald Neff, (Washington Report on Middle East Affairs, Jan-Feb. 1997, p. 74)

". . . the (US) aid program to Israel has amounted to the largest voluntary transfer of wealth and technology in history, far more than all American aid given to rehabilitate Western Europe under the Marshall Plan after World War II."


The total of outright grants and loan guarantees amounts to $5.6758 billion for 1996 alone! That translates to more than $15,6 million, every day, 365 days a year!

Add to that the reparations already paid by Germany - more than $120 billion Deutsche Mark, and no end yet in sight! - and you can see how valuable a tool the Holocaust has become to Israel.

According to the Canadian Jewish News,

". . . thousands of Jews across Canada, and in other countries as well, receive monthly cheques in varying amounts from the Federal Republic of Germany. These restitution payments - or Wiedergutmachung - are designed to compensate the victims of Nazi persecution.

According to data supplied by the German Information Centre in New York, 99.8% of all claims have been settled by Jan. 1, 1981. The number of successful claimants is 4,344,378. About 40% of the victims live in Israel; 20% in West Germany, and 40% elsewhere.

The funds these people receive are the result of laws enacted in the 1950s. Further legislation providing compensation has been passed by the Bundestag. In 1979, 400 million marks were allocated to Jews whose health was damaged but who, because they were unable to comply with deadline or residency requirements, had not been able to obtain restitution. This year, the Bundestag granted an amount of up 100 million marks for non-Jewish victims of Nazism.

West Germany regards restitution as a "most important and urgent" moral obligation. But it has no illusions that compensation payments can atone for Nazi crimes against humanity. As a government bulletin puts it: "No matter how large the sum, no amount of money will ever suffice to compensate for National Socialist persecution."


Seen from the United States' perspective alone, Washington's interests are constantly downplayed alongside Tel Aviv's. The United States can never find anything wrong in Israel's actions. The massacre at Qana, the shooting by trigger-happy Zionist settlers of six- and seven-year-old children, the burning of Muslim places of worship, the brutal beating of innocent Palestinians condoned by Israeli courts, prisoners held for years without not only a trial but even a charge-all this counts for nothing in the eyes of the US government and its beholden media. Israel's treatment of Arab prisoners as well as of mentally handicapped Arabs would shock Americans, if only they knew. Since Israel's inception, no military court has pronounced a death sentence, or even a life time sentence against a Jew who murdered an Arab!

The bias can also be seen in the new appointments in the governments of many countries, particularly Germany and the United States, of those who put Israel first and their own country second. These countries are oblivious to the abuses committed by Israelis because there was, supposedly, a "Jewish Holocaust."

This is crucial for the world to understand: The Holocaust removes the Zionists from any criticism as a group. It provides a backdrop of victimhood and, hence, a common bond. It is instrumental in huge, world-wide money-raising campaigns supporting Israel.

Much more importantly, for your children and mine, it justifies and even makes obligatory continued, never-ending aid to Israel and keeps key people locked in power in governments and media around the world to make sure that this river of aid keeps on flowing.

And here is the irony of it all: Up until W.W.II, Zionism was pretty much a failure. Besides a tiny core of zealots, Jews were not interested in a Jewish state except on a theoretical, conceptual level. The idea of going to Palestine and actually having to work and plowing the ground as a member of a commune was not very appealing to the sissified merchants and money changers.

The reality is that most Jews who are now in Israel settled there because they had to - not because they really wanted to. When Israel declared its independence in 1948, the reason given for the founding of the Jewish state was the Holocaust; because of the recent persecutions in Europe, Jews needed a "place of refuge". It justified the aid then, and the massive aid that has been funneled into Israel ever since.

Because of its location in a sea of Muslims, practically all of whom hate Israel, its decades of sponging off Europe and the U.S., and its repeated and brutal abuses of human rights against people they consider "inferior', makes their existence very tenuous. Since Israel cannot survive on its own, Israel needs a compelling reason to continue to exist. Otherwise, why should outsiders continue to support and subsidize this parasitic, brutal, dictatorial country?

At the heart of the matter lies the question "Why is there an Israel at all?" and the answer is a ringing "Because of the Holocaust!" Israel is a state sustained by parasitism, yet it hawks itself as a perpetual state of "victimhood."

Therefore, questioning the Holocaust becomes questioning the foundation of Israel. Without the Holocaust there is no reason for Israel.

Zionists know this; this is how Zionists view the matter. Beyond the scams and the gravy train and shake-down of European countries over the Holocaust (remember "Nazi gold"?) this myth is the basis for the Jewish power structure today.

It is at the core of how Jews view each other and outsiders. Taking away the Holocaust for Jews would be like someone coming forward with proof Jesus did not die on the cross for mankind's sins and rise from the dead, but instead was given a light fine and put on probation.

Globally, this needs to sink in big time: The tactic of smearing the Germans and, now ever more broadly, Western Christian civilization as a whole is a coldly calculated one. It has very little to do with "defamation of the dead." The concept of "defamation" is an extremely useful political tool. Israel is a non-viable state if left to its own devices. It could not have survived without German reparations extorted out of a spineless Allied vassal government by the military occupiers of Germany after WWII. The same is true for the United States. "Israel's" senators and congressman have over the years acted as a virtual fifth column against the US best interests - in the Middle East, for example.

Now, many people are wondering if it is indeed in the interest of the US to keep on with the reckless policy of supporting Israel. There is a time bomb called the "Holocaust" that can be heard ticking globally. The Holocaust is first, last and always about modern politics - and above all else, money obtained without labor, extorted under duress for largely non-existent "crimes".

Part of the Revisionist task is to set the record straight and to tell Israel to justify itself through its own self-sufficiency - like every other respected and respectable country does and should.
