The power that brooks no descent


Subject: The power that brooks no descent.

The power of the Jewish diaspora and its claim of anti Semitic views held by people in the Labour movement is once again given full media coverage. People are invited onto programs to denounce Labour and particularly Jeremy Corbyn, questioning the weight of of his approval or disapproval of the Jewish sector within society.


People have become scared of sticking their head above the parapet in a way that reminds me of McCarthyism in the US in the 1950s when liberals were terrified to speak out for communism. The very debate is frozen by a witch hunt that uses the power of the media to bully and ruin lives.
Jewish people are a very talented race of people who have spread throughout the world whilst maintaining their exclusivity by effecting tight control over who was able to enter their faith and be accepted by their community. From biblical times their interest in the financial control of business and their preponderance in senior positions in the banking industry and boardrooms around the world has led to them being seen as the archetypal money man, a person who succeeds even when the times are hard for everyone  else. This ability to look after money and the wealth it afforded them was one the reasons they were villainised by the Nazi Party who saw the Jews profiting during the harsh Financial Reparation period in Germany after the First World War.
Ken Livingston's crime for instance was to express his opinion about a historical event in the 1930s where for a short period of time the Jewish Guild in Palestine (this was before the state of Israel had come into being in 1947) had started negotiations with the Nazis to assist in transporting Jews back from Germany to Palestine. I myself have read of these negotiations and Livingston repeated that they had taken place. For this he was assailed by the power of the Jewish lobby and forced out of the Labour Party.
In essence this lobby seem to have everyone by the proverbial. Their reach into our society, like their reach into the American society runs deep and perhaps if for no other reason we should be wary of this power and influence. It has no democratic rules of engagement, is proponents are shadowy figures who are well versed in using the media to create a witch hunt, this time against Labour and in particularly Jeremy Corbyn.
Communism and Finance are difficult bedfellows. The Marxist dogma of workers selling their labour to the capitalist and the unequal return labour received from the process was critical in the relationship of communism to capital. In some eyes the Jews in Russia represented the power of capital to distort what was truly the worth of the workers.
People these days avow communism linking it to the failed state of the USSR, without properly understanding that as a political philosophy it was an antidote to unfettered capitalism, where only a few succeed and the majority are left as second class citizens.
People like Corbyn have had a lifetime of arguing the fate of communism and the rampant unfairness of capitalism. The Jews who rank high in the capitalistic hierarchy were always a part of the political dialog he had had and his position on anti semitism is one of distrust as the levers of power now define what you can and can't say about the power of the Jewish influence in this country.
They have become the sacred cow, above debate and criticism, their grip has tightened as yet not on what we think, (that would be Orwellian) but on the commentary. I can think of no other discussion hedged around as much as the the question of Jewish hegemony. It's a mine field in which commentary has been effectively closed down, other than what the Jewish community wish us to think and say.
No wonder Jeremy Corbyn has tussled with his consent to the IHRA (the International Holocaust Remembrance Association) definition of anti - semitism, as a prejudice or discrimination against Jews. Any other society on earth can attract prejudice and discrimination, but not the Jews.
The reason given is their mass extermination in the death camps by the Nazis, a heinous crime but no similar injunction is made when questioning the gypsies who were also singled out for execution or the  millions of Russian Slavs were executed as vermin by the Nazis, no memorial is made for them.
As always, it's a question of where the power lays, and as Jeremy Corbyn has found out to his dismay, this power brooks no dissent from anyone.
