An Open Letter To Noam Chomsky

Are you thinking what I'm thinking? You really had it in for the New York Times in that lovely film of yours Manufacturing Consent. You held the NYT was the locus of a conspiracy to rig the agenda and subvert democracy. Which I thought excessive. But you know more about these things than I do. Mr Chomsky: Was the New York Times responsible for the Holocaust? in large measure.

Let's recap a few things. Possibly the most problematic event of the 20th Century was the American entry into the First World War, which altered the outcome of the war, necessitating a Second World War. The Holocaust was a prime result of that American intervention.

And there was a Jewish interest in America's entry into WW1. Specifically the Balfour Declaration, committing Britain and France to a Jewish homeland in Palestine, was worked out in 1916 and shown to Jewish leaders for feedback, but not published until 1917 after the American intervention. It is difficult not to see that as a bribe: You get America into the war, and we'll give you Israel.

There were other factors involved of course. But the war hysteria, that led to the American intervention in April 1917, was fanned by the eastern (Jewish) press; unlike the earlier Spanish-American war which was whipped up by the western (Hearst) press. Mr Chomsky: Did the New York Times play a leading role in suckering America into the First World War?

It was so obvious America was suckered into the current Iraq war at least partly in the Jewish interest. There were no weapons of mass destruction. A big part of that intelligence cock-up was due to Mossad, the Israeli intelligence service, on whom the Americans rely for Middle-East intelligence. And something similar happened in the First World War.

All I know for sure is the media focus on the Second World War gets on my nerves. The Holocaust is not settling down as an historical event. There are pieces missing concerning Jewish guilt and responsibility. What were the million+ assimilated German Jews doing? The inventor of Zyklon-B was a Jew. The admiral of the Bismark was a Jew. The prime architect of the Holocaust, Himmler's right hand man, the head of the SS, the uber-Nazi who planned the death camps, the magnificent blond brute with the hips of a woman, Heydrich was a Jew. So many Jews dodged military service in WW1, in popular belief at least, the kaiser government ordered a review. (It's findings were never published. Thanx Amos Elon~The Pity Of It All~a lovely account of German Jewry to 1933.) The German Jews always disowned the ghetto Jews of eastern Europe, who bore the brunt of the Holocaust, while German Jewry came through the Hitler period relatively unscathed.

I would love to see an account of the Jewish-Germans under Hitler. There is so much guilt in the Jewish world today. They are not going to Israel as promised. Hundreds of thousands of Jews got out of Russia in the Brezhnev era saying they wanted to go to Israel~Which everyone respected!~but went to America instead. The Jews in the media are an outrage. And always the Holocaust is played to the last cent. I feel I must stand up to their bullying and manipulation. I hope you're not offended.

When Hitler floated the idea of resettling European Jewry in some gash part of the British Empire, western Canada or western Australia wherever, the Canadian govt did not offer Saskatchewan as a homeland. Even with the benefit of hindsight, we were not in the slightest obliged to offer Hans Island even, not even as a lease. If Jews couldn't help themselves, no power on earth could help them. Which may not be the whole story but it's a big part of it.

Over to you.
