Do Jewish "leaders" want us all to be victims?
By Aaron Zelman
Executive Director of Jews for the Preservation of Firearms
Ownership
Are self-anointed Jewish political "leaders" trying to turn
America into the kind of hell from which our people have
repeatedly been forced to escape for the last two millennia?
Are they going out of their way to prove the truth of the old
Yiddish adage, "Our own Jews will destroy us"?
And do they aim -- through ignorance or ambition -- to destroy
this nation not only for Jews, but for the other 97 percent of
Americans, as well?
Yes. If they have their way, they will.
But it hasn't always been this way. Jews and America have been
good for each other.
Jews have enriched this country through achievements in science,
law, business, arts, and culture. Our contributions range from
the sublime to the ridiculous. Although we are less than three
percent of the population, we constitute 21 percent of all Nobel
Prize winners. We've kept America laughing by producing 80
percent of its comedians from Groucho Marx to Jerry Seinfeld. In
every war since the War Between the States, Jews have fought for
freedom in disproportionate numbers, often with great
distinction.
America, in turn, has blessed the Jews. Our forebears came here
to enjoy the freedom of a nation whose government -- unlike
those from which they fled -- was bound within strict limits.
The Bill of Rights, our chief protector, has stood against the
savagery that might otherwise be perpetrated by prejudiced
individuals, institutions, and governments.
But judging by the mewling of many self-anointed leaders you'd
think the blessings of freedom counted for nothing. In their
minds and in their mouths, it's "victim" this and "victim" that.
These "leaders" depict the U.S. as a nation where helplessness,
mindless violence, and bigotry prevail. They tell us we are
under siege from extremist organizations and hate groups --
often choosing "enemies" so unlikely that a knowledgeable
person is struck with bemusement. For example, one of the
latest groups defamed by the Anti-Defamation League of the
B'nai B'rith is the peaceful but confrontational protest group,
the Tyranny Response Team. Founded by a Jew, Bob Glass, the TRT
has fought harmful legislation by wearing yellow Stars of David
and handing out flyers showing victims of genocide. But because
the legislation they oppose is "gun control," which the ADL
supports, the ADL assigned "hate group" researchers to
investigate them. ADL representatives then reported to the
media that they need to "watch" the group because of the "kind
of people it might attract."
Professional Jewish leaders demand obeisance to a vision of Jews
as helpless and passive by nature -- childlike victims toward
whom the entire world, not just the perpetrators of the
Holocaust, owes groveling remorse. They preach that our entire
nation is populated by similar victims whose sufferings give
them an unquestionable moral claim -- victims of poverty,
disease, racism, government funding cuts, ignorance, sexism,
violence, and a whole host of newly discovered inequities and
inequalities.
And they invariably propose one balm to heal all miseries:
government. And more government. Government unbound, unlimited,
unhindered.
In speeches and votes, Jewish legislators cry for an expansion
of government power so limitless it makes the carnivorous alien
plant in "Little Shop of Horrors" look like a rose in spring.
Politicians are joined in their socialist cry by other Jewish
leaders like Abraham Foxman of the Anti-Defamation League and
Nobel-Prize-winning scholar Elie Wiesel and media voices like
Ed Asner and Barbra Streisand.
In their utopian vision, government is a godlike, all-powerful,
all-seeing, all-knowing, force for good. That is -- for whatever
"good" politically powerful groups can impose by force.
One of the "benefits" Jewish leaders want to impose is
disarmament. Not trusting ordinary men and women to own guns,
they work toward the day when uniformed soldiers, police, and
other agents of the state will hold a monopoly on the legal use
of lethal force.
Have these Jews forgotten their own history?
Have they forgotten that, from Pharoah to Stalin and Hitler,
powerful governments have been their worst tormentors, their
slave masters, their ghettoizers, their inquisitors, their
slaughterers?
They certainly have forgotten that, throughout history, the
"benevolent" government that courts Jews one day turns on us
the next and sends us into exile, suffering, and death. For
two millennia, that's been the reality of Jewish existence.
Do they _want_ Jews to be victims? And worse, do they want us to
become, in reality, the nation of victims that populates their
imaginations?
A history of Jewish heroes
Jews who nowadays crusade for the omni-benevolent, but omni-
controlling Nanny State have forgotten the proud Jewish
traditions of self defense, self reliance, and armed opposition
to tyranny. Thankfully, earlier American Jews had a better grasp
of their history.[1]
Before the U.S. was a nation, Jews like Asser Levy and Jacob
Barsimon demanded their right to bear arms and patrol with the
local militiamen in New Amsterdam colony. They had to overcome
the resistance of Pieter Stuyvesant, the colony's anti-Semitic
governor, who didn't trust them with guns and wanted them to pay
a tax so a Christian could bear arms in their stead.
Haym Salomon, friend to Washington and Lafayette, was an
American for just 13 years, from his immigration to his death.
But in that time, he was the major financier of the Revolution.
He also gave interest-free loans to Madison, Jefferson, and
several generals of the Continental Army -- then died broke
when both public and private debtors defaulted on $638,000
owed him.
While most Christian colonists remained neutral or turned Tory,
the majority of the Jewish community supported freedom from
oppressive government.
And so it has gone through U.S. history. In the War Between the
States, the Union Army had eight Jewish generals and six Jewish
Medal of Honor winners. Confederate Jews fought valiantly for
the states that had respected their individual rights when the
North rejected them. Isadore Busch of St. Louis was one of the
most prominent abolitionists in the Midwest, while Judah P.
Benjamin -- the first practicing Jew ever elected to the U.S.
Senate -- became Secretary of War, Attorney General, then
Secretary of State in the cabinet of Jefferson Davis. He was
known as "the brains of the Confederacy."
Jews rode with Teddy Roosevelt's Rough Riders. In World War I,
Sgt. Ben Kaufman was threatened with a court martial when he
refused to stay in a hospital after being wounded in a gas
attack. Shortly after, in the Argonne forest, he charged a
German machine gun nest, despite his shattered right arm
hanging at his side. Lobbing grenades with his left hand, he
ultimately captured the machine gun by menacing its crew with
an empty pistol. Then he took a German prisoner and went back
to reveal the location of German lines to his commanders.
From Admiral Hyman Rickover, Father of the Nuclear Navy, to the
merest grunt slogging ashore on an embattled beach, Jews have
fought and died -- bearing arms.
They preserved the Bill of Rights. The Bill of Rights in turn
protected their liberties by binding government -- the most
potentially oppressive, murderous human force on earth -- in
the chains of law.
Jewish law and armed defense
By taking up arms, these heroes followed Jewish law and
tradition: A Jew may choose to defend against aggressors, but
when the threat is ominous, a Jew _must_ fight back.
The Talmud, the code of Jewish law, states: "If someone comes
to kill you, arise quickly and kill him."[2] The Sixth
Commandment, poorly translated as "Thou shalt not kill," is more
properly translated from the Hebrew as, "You shall not commit
murder." It does not forbid the righteous taking of life. The
Book of Exodus (22:1)[3] further confirms this, assuring us that
"If a burglar is caught in the act of breaking in, and is struck
and killed, it is not considered an act of murder" (assuming the
intruder is breaking into our home at night, when it is hardest
to judge his intent).
In Genesis 14:11-24, Abraham (Abram), rescues his nephew Lot,
held captive by four kings, by arming 318 servants and hunting
down, violently attacking, and dispersing Lot's royal captors.
Because earlier American Jews followed these traditions of
righteous defense, they enjoyed life and freedom while their
cousins died by the millions at the hands of Hitler and
suffered under Stalin.
How things have changed
Jews have benefited so greatly from America's limited government
that the epithet "statist Jew" should be as unbelievable as
"kosher ham."
Jews have fought so well that when modern Jews sneer at arms
and those who bear them they dishonor the memory of their own
ancestors. What would Judah Maccabee -- the brilliant warrior
who captured Jerusalem from the Greeks and rededicated the
Temple (a man once described as "Arnold Schwartzenegger wearing
a yarmulke")[4] -- think of today's weapon prohibitionists, who
wouldn't have allowed him to bear a sword?
Jews have suffered so grotesquely for their modern inability to
defend themselves that their "leaders'" moral repugnance toward
firearms constitutes suicidal self hatred.
Nevertheless seriously misguided zealots -- "useful idiots" in
communist argot -- continue to lead the charge to strip all but
an elite few Americans of the right to protect themselves and
their loved ones.
Sen. Charles Schumer sponsors or co-sponsors every major victim
disarmament bill. He's followed closely by Sens. Boxer,
Lieberman, Levin, Feingold, and Kohl.
There's almost no expansion of state power that these and other
politically influential Jews don't consistently support:
nationalization of health care; thought-crime laws ("hate
speech"); federal control of education; foreign adventurism;
rent control; tax-paid child care; institutional education for
toddlers; federal management of family life; subsidies for
business; wage-price controls; surveillance and databasing of
the population; subsidy or censorship of art; draconian law
enforcement; and greater spending on any program that creates
more government dependents or partisans.
But to the drive for citizen disarmament, they bring religious
fervor.
Charles Schumer praised prominent anti-gun activist Sarah Brady,
telling her at a Congressional hearing, "You are doing G-d's
work."[5]
But who exactly is Chuck Schumer's god? Certainly not the G-d of
Judeo-Christian teachings -- the G-d who championed righteous
self-defense in the name of life. Does Schumer worship the
golden calf? Or perhaps he was referring to Anubis, the
Egyptian god of death who conducted souls into the underworld.
Or Set, the Egyptian god of chaos who personified evil. For evil
and death will reign in a world where thugs are armed and
disarmed victims bow helpless before them.
Consider the Religious Action Center of the Union of American
Hebrew Congregations (AHC), a Washington, D.C.-based group that
bills itself as the "hub of Jewish social justice and
legislative activity in the nation's capital." This group has
built an anti-gun curriculum for children and adults that makes
hatred for self-defense a religious issue. Its first goal: "To
see the issue of gun control not only as a political issue, but
as a moral obligation."
The AHC adopted a disarmament resolution in 1999 that called
for members to make gun-control one of their highest priorities.
That resolution cited "the biblical injunction that we must not
stand idly by the blood of our neighbor." The bible cite is
ironic, given that the AHC urges policies that ensure that good
people will have no means to defend their neighbors from bloody-
minded thugs.
In ignorance of Jewish law, Rosanne Selfon, vice president of
Women of Reform Judaism, joined the 2000 Million Mom March,
telling the media. "We have a moral obligation that emanates
from Torah and G-d." Ms. Selfon should brush up on authentic
Jewish teachings by consulting Rabbi R. Mermelstein via his
online "Ask the Rabbi" column.[6]
Rabbi Eric M. Lankin, executive director for the New Jersey
Region of the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism, cites
the Jewish tradition of actively doing good and bettering the
world as the reason why gun-control "resonates with the Jewish
community."
Indeed, Jewish tradition says, "Destroy a life, you destroy the
world; save a life and you save the world." Yet these leaders,
in the name of religion, would turn the world over to destroyers
and render life savers powerless to protect their neighbors,
friends, families, or nations.
Some Jewish religious leaders make sincere and thoughtful,
though tragically wrong, arguments. Others often sound as
though they're merely parroting clich�s they've heard on TV --
"gun violence," "for the children," and the well-debunked canard
"43 times more likely to be killed by a gun in your own home."
But it's not until you enter the realm of the _secular_ Jewish
leadership that you encounter the most unthinking prejudices.
Several years ago, Jews for the Preservation of Firearms
Ownership compiled evidence that demonstrated how, in
nation after nation, gun-control laws have preceded mass
slaughters of civilian populations. When JPFO presented
these findings to Elie Wiesel, a survivor of both Auschwitz
and Buchenwald, he refused even to consider its evidence.
Wiesel, who has said, "To remain silent and indifferent is
the greatest sin of all," wrote a two-sentence response: "I
received your recent letter linking 'gun control' laws with
genocide in the twentieth century. Sorry, but I am for gun
control. "Under Abraham Foxman, the Anti-Defamation League
of B'nai B'rith has departed from its mission of defense
against bigotry. Adopting a political party-line agenda, the
ADL itself spews bigotry against gun owners. The ADL calls for
tolerance, but turns around and smears those who oppose its
disarmament goals as "extremists," "paranoiacs," "bigots,"
"gun-nuts," and "haters." Thus the Anti-Defamation League
becomes the Defamation League.
And the toll of freedom-hating Jewish "leaders" goes on.
One step leads to another
In nine major genocides of the twentieth century, at least
74 million people were slaughtered by their own governments.
* 1915 - 1917 Ottoman Turkey, 1 - 1.5 million Armenians murdered
* 1929 - 1945 Soviet Union, 20 million people opponents (or
perceived opponents) of Stalin murdered
* 1933 - 1945 Nazi-occupied Europe, 20 million Jews, Gypsies,
disabled people, homosexuals and political opponents of Hitler
murdered
* 1927-1949 Nationalist China, 10 million political opponents,
army conscripts and others murdered
* 1949 - 1976 Communist China, 20 million political opponents,
rural people or "enemies of the state" murdered
* 1960 - 1981 Guatemala, 100,000 Mayan Indians Murdered
* 1971 - 1979 Uganda, 300,000 Christians and political rivals
of Idi Amin murdered
* 1975 - 1979 Cambodia, 1 million educated people murdered
* 1994 Rwanda, 800,000 Tutsi people murdered.
Each mass murder was preceded by enactment of gun-control laws.
Each murdered population was first disarmed. Leaders of each
murderous government were looking for an unpopular group on
which to pin the blame for persistent problems. The newly
published book _Death By Gun Control_ [7] by Aaron Zelman and
Richard W. Stevens has the details.
What will happen if the U.S. allows itself to fall into that
vicious spiral?
Don't believe "It can't happen here." It can. When powerful
people, seeking to impose perfect solutions from above, find
that every road to Utopia fails, they're all too willing to
take the path that lies over the bodies of the dead or the
enslaved.
Efforts to legislate sweeping, top-down solutions to human
problems always fail, and for two good reasons. First, not all
human problems can be solved. Second, any attempt to impose
universal, one-size-fits-all solutions from above not only
fails but generates a new set of "crises" and abuses.
Try to halt violence by restricting gun ownership and you
won't halt violence. But you will create entire classes of
new criminals -- people who make paperwork errors, violate
technical specifications of law, or rebel against the new
restrictions. And you'll create new bureaus, new enforcement
arms, new prisons to punish them. You'll make hordes of lawyers
and bureaucrats very happy. Organized criminals will be grateful
to the naive moral crusaders ("useful idiots") as they profit
by selling an illegal product. And ordinary street criminals
will bless fools, legislators, and "leaders" for making their
job so much safer.
Look around the world. In the UK, criminal use of handguns
increased 40 percent in the three years after that country
decreed a near-total ban on those weapons. Between March 1999
and March 2000 alone, crimes committed in Britain with handguns
rose by nearly one-third.[8] These are handguns that, according
to the law of wishful thinking, don't exist. A similar ban
enacted in Australia resulted in a 3.2 percent increase in
homicides, 8.6 percent more assaults (especially on the
elderly), and an astonishing 45 percent increase in burglaries,
with the undefended elderly once again the prime victims.[9]
"Gun-control" advocates scoff when we call their aim "victim
disarmament." But unlike their "gun control" -- which controls
nothing except law-abiding people -- victim disarmament is an
accurate term. Deadly reality demonstrates that when the
Schumers of the world say they want our guns, what they're
really saying is, "We don't care if some woman gets raped. We
don't care if old folks are helpless in their own homes. We
don't care if children die from pitchfork-wielding madmen
because we've prevented children from accessing guns. We just
care about having _control_."
If your goal is gang violence and the deaths of women, the
elderly, and the helpless, get in line behind Chuck Schumer,
Abraham Foxman, and the god Anubis on the road to death.
Today's "reasonable gun-control" becomes tomorrow's
catastrophic failure. But the answer, for those who love
control, is never to say, "That didn't work; let's get rid of
it." Instead, when one restriction on firearms possession
doesn't miraculously end all violence, proponents cry for
another and yet another. The result is an endless escalation.
True believers demand ever-greater harshness in enforcement
and seethe with ever-greater desire to punish those who break
the burgeoning laws. Sometimes, as their desperation mounts,
they merely strike out against conveniently identified
"troublemakers."
Jewish leaders forget that, once this kind of mindless spiral
of blame and punishment seizes a society, the Jews often become
its victims.
I say to you self-enthroned Jewish "leaders," you don't lead
_me_, as you lead your followers down this path to destruction.
You don't represent _me_ in any way, nor do you represent many
fine Jews who value _all_ of the Bill of Rights for all
citizens.
But I'm afraid someday I'll have to pay -- as both a Jew and a
freedom-loving American -- for your folly, you Jews who have
sight but no vision.
Now I ask Jewish leaders:
Why, if guns are so evil that their mere possession drives
otherwise peaceful people to violence, do you want police and
military forces to be better armed than you? Have you forgotten
the glowing death's heads, the silver lightning, the sleek black
boots and tailored uniforms of the Nazis who rousted your
parents and grandparents from hiding and drove them like farm
animals to slaughter?
Have you forgotten one of America's open secrets -- that until
recently the upper echelons of the U.S. military were virulently
anti-Semitic? That while Jews were dying in Europe U.S. Army
officers and intelligence agents were (as Joseph Bendersky
documented in _The Jewish Threat_) convinced that Jews were
dangerous, subversive, and malign?
And these are the people to whom you want to grant a monopoly
on the use of armed force?
If your vigilance fails and a genuine hate group really does
take over America, how will you fight them, once you've
disarmed yourself and your countrymen?
Why?
Why is the _Shoah_, the Holocaust, glorified above the memories
of the _heroic_ deeds of Jews? Why not glorify the memories of
unflinching heroes: the Maccabees, and the bold young men and
women of the ghettos of Warsaw and Vilna who took a stand for
life, not death?
Why do Jewish leaders ignore the indisputable fact that Jews
who took up arms against Hitler survived in larger numbers than
their passive brethren?
Why do they ignore accounts like that of Harold Werner, a Polish
Jew who took to the woods with other partisans rather than
submit to the ghettos and camps? In _Fighting Back_, Werner told
not only how he and his fellows bedeviled Hitler, but how, as
Hitler's minions retreated, Jewish partisans used arms to
protect other Jews from beatings and murders by anti-Semitic
civilians.
Is it mere ignorance of history when Jewish leaders disregard
these facts? Is it slavish, propagandistic devotion to police
state policies? Or is it a death wish?
Is it some macabre sense of irony that causes them only to
remember passive death on Holocaust Remembrance Day -- when the
very date was chosen because it fell within the weeks of the
Warsaw Ghetto rebellion, an act of courageous self- and
community-defense that should live in our memory for millennia?
Most Jews in America are just like most other Americans. They
mow their lawns. They pay their taxes. And many of them send
money to groups like the ADL, telling themselves, "It's all
taken care of. The experts know what they're doing."
In their passivity, they make the same mistake ghetto Jews
made when relying on the wisdom of the _Judenrat_, the Jewish
Councils, who in the name of "reason" and civility, betrayed
them to Hitler and the death camps.
Some Socialist-leaning, anti-gun leaders may be passionate but
wrong-headed; a few may be venal, with their main goal to keep
the golden goose laying eggs. Many worship power and value
"connections" and the ability to "get things done in
Washington."
Their desire to curry favor with political establishment is
reminiscent of Jews of the Weimar Republic, who believed
themselves to be assimilated ("more German than Jewish," so the
saying went), but found out how tragically they'd deceived
themselves when Hitler came to power.
Most members of Europe's Community Jewish Councils (called
Jewish Federations in the U.S.) never learned -- even after they
had been shut into ghettos, even after they'd helped select
thousands of fellow Jews to be marched to death camps -- that
appeasers, in the end, share the same fate as those whom they
betray.
American Jewish leaders are na�ve if they believe they can
evade the consequences of history. They are evil if they
knowingly lead us all toward that familiar fate.
How can professional victims like Elie Weisel walk through
death camps, yet deny the need for self defense?
History shows that the biggest murderer of Jews and of other
minorities has not been hate groups but governments that have
become drunk with power.
If you believe "It can't happen here," ask the survivors of the
Branch Dravidian church whose family members were gassed and
cremated. Ask members of the Bonus Army, peacefully protesting
veterans of World War I who, in 1932, were gassed and burned out
of their Washington, D.C., tent city by a military force led by
those all-American heroes Douglas MacArthur, Dwight Eisenhower,
and George S. Patton. Ask the students at Kent State, the WTO
protestors in Seattle, or the veterans of WWII who had to form
an independent army and recapture their Tennessee county by
force of arms from a brutal and corrupt government in 1946.
Ask the Japanese Americans who were forced into what the _New
York Times_ accurately called concentration camps, their
possessions looted, their lands stolen.
Even as they cry remembrance, Jewish leaders have forgotten
these things -- just as they have forgotten the underlying
causes of Hitler's Holocaust.
As Dr. Sarah B. Thompson wrote in "Raging Against Self
Defense,"[10] many who hate guns and believe they can end
violence by banning a tool are suffering a kind of mental
instability. They project their own fears and aggressions
onto others. They imagine threats from inanimate objects,
disregarding the intentions of the possessors of those
objects. Despite clear evidence to the contrary, they deny
that criminals will still get arms and menace innocent people,
no matter how many laws are passed. They identify themselves
as victims and boil with unstated rage against anyone they
imagine has the strength to victimize them. The same amorphous
anxiety that gives an edge to the humor of Jewish comedians
shows itself in Jewish leaders' desperate fear of guns. They
feel threatened, and it's easy to point to firearms and say,
"If _those_ just go away, I'll feel better."
When that false hope of inner peace and security fails, as it
inevitably will, what -- or who -- will political zealots turn
on next?
The challenge
Jews have a reputation for being intelligent. But it's stupid to
destroy the Bill of Rights, the one document that has created a
historic haven for Jews when all the rest of the world has been
against us. If the guardian of the Bill of Rights -- the
uninfringed right of individuals to keep and bear arms -- is
destroyed, how will we defend ourselves when tyrants come to
take our freedom of speech, religion, or trial-by-jury or our
protections against self-incrimination, unwarranted searches,
or cruel and unusual punishment?
I challenge true Jewish leaders to promote Bill of Rights Day
on December 15 instead of giving all their energy to the self-
perpetuating Holocaust industry. Promote that special day and
mean it. Learn the significance of every amendment and support
every shining one of our 10 protectors.
Pursue justice -- by getting off the backs of peaceful people.
Put restrictions only on those who do harm.
Promote self-reliance instead of perennial victimhood. Support
the right of all Americans to make our own decisions, including
the decision to buy, own, and use firearms responsibly.
"Choose life," as our traditions bid us, by living peacefully
but developing the skill to protect your family, friends,
neighbors, and nation from those who choose death and
destruction. You can't choose life by throwing Holocaust
literature at those who wish you evil.
When you cry, "Never again!" tell me how you'll enforce that
cry. Because make no mistake, there are people who will be happy
to push us all into gas chambers again. And if we don't stop
them, then our disarmed and demoralized neighbors certainly
won't -- especially not if they perceive that we were
instrumental in disarming them and destroying their liberties.
I challenge you, Jewish leaders, to do what's best for all
America. Warmly embrace _all_ of the Bill of Rights for all
citizens, In the long run, that's what's best for Jews and
Judaism -- and for the world.

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance�not soap-boxing�please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'�with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds�is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
