[Atzmon]: In March 2014 I gave an interview to larmurerie.fr/ I can’t
trace the original French article but a Google translation of the French
original exists on my site. I was asked by the French Journalist the following
question: Many French people share your opinion. For example, there is a French
thinker, Hervé Ryssen, who uses the same metaphor as you when you talk about
the mirror, saying that when a Jew accuses you of being an anti-semite, you
just have to read the mirror image of the argument to reveal his racism towards
goyim.”
My answer was as follows. “I actually use the word projection, but the
mirror image is no doubt similar. And projection, by the way, is something that
Freud taught us about. You know, we have to admit that some of the most
interesting humanists in the history of the West are Jews: Christ, Spinoza,
Marx were Jews. Why is that?…Now there is something very interesting and it’s
again the first time I’m saying it. The left is devastated by David Duke for
instance. He was in the KKK when he was young. But here is something quite
amazing: I read him and I was shocked to find out that this guy knows more
about Jewish identity than I do! How could a supposedly ‘racist’ Gentile who
probably never entered a synagogue knows more than I do about Judaism? The
reason is in fact very simple: he is a proud white man. He’s interested in
nationalism, in the culture of his own people, so he understands things that I
am not even allowed to think about. Believe it or not, even as a Jew, I wasn’t
allowed to think of myself as a racist. I was a racist, maybe I am still one,
but I was not allowed to acknowledge it. Once he acknowledges that he’s talking
about white people’s rights, in a way he thinks like Avigdor Lieberman! But in
fact, he is way better than Lieberman. David Duke is a humanist because he
says, «I want to celebrate my right and you should celebrate your rights»
whether you are Muslim or black or whatever. He believes that all people should
celebrate their rights, this is his current philosophy. Avidgor Liberman is not
a humanist, because he wants to celebrate his rights at the expense of other
people.”
