Conspiracy!
Why do some people believe that Jews run the world?
You shall not give false testimony against your neighbour. (Exodus 20:16)
The apostle Paul was languishing in Herod’s Palace in Caesarea, having been sent there by a Roman commander, as a result of accusations by the Jewish authorities in Jerusalem. He was going to have his case heard by Felix, the Governor. But, first, the Jews presented their case:
“We have found this man to be a troublemaker, stirring up riots among the Jews all over the world. He is a ringleader of the Nazarene sect and even tried to desecrate the temple; so we seized him.By examining him yourself you will be able to learn the truth about all these charges we are bringing against him.” (Acts 24:5-8)
This, of course, was complete nonsense. This was false testimony. Today we would call this Fake News. Paul responded to these claims:
You can easily verify that no more than twelve days ago I went up to Jerusalem to worship. My accusers did not find me arguing with anyone at the temple, or stirring up a crowd in the synagogues or anywhere else in the city. And they cannot prove to you the charges they are now making against me … After an absence of several years, I came to Jerusalem to bring my people gifts for the poor and to present offerings. I was ceremonially clean when they found me in the temple courts doing this. There was no crowd with me, nor was I involved in any disturbance. (Acts 24:11-13;17-18)
People have always been quite willing to lie to get their own way. Cain set the tone for this: “Then the Lord said to Cain, ‘Where is your brother Abel?’ ‘I don’t know,’ he replied. ‘Am I my brother’s keeper?’ (Genesis 4:9)
Fake News may have received notoriety in the Trump era, but it has been simmering on the back burner for many years. The Jewish people have been at the receiving end of it ever since Pharaoh panicked his people into thinking that the Hebrews were a fifth column ready to overthrow the kingdom. Here is an excerpt from Outcast Nation:
… And we’re not talking of just one alleged Jewish conspiracy; there’s a whole swathe of them. Whispers are heard of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. Zionism is seen as a front for world domination, with the Israeli secret service (Mossad) pulling the strings. Then there are the Illuminati, the Freemasons, the United Nations, the New World Order, the Communists, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank and the World’s press. Apparently, all have been sucked into the Jewish web! Jews have been put forward as the primary cause of most of the major problems that have weakened European society in the past 200 years such as: World War I, World War II, communism, socialism, liberalism, capitalism, mass immigration, forced integration, racial preference laws, and media bias. Such busy bees, we’ve been!
The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is probably the most well-known weapon in the armoury of anti-Jewish conspiracy nuts. It is also a complete forgery, but why should the truth get in the way of a good yarn? It is claimed to be the minutes of a meeting of Jewish leaders at the first Zionist congress in Basel, Switzerland in 1897 (or, as some say, a graveyard in Prague), when the Jews were hatching an audacious plot to take over the World!
What it actually was is not that easy to follow. It seems to be based on a pamphlet written at the turn of the 20th Century by a Russian forger as a means to discredit reforms in that country and bolster the influence of the Czar. This forger took material from a satire on Napoleon III by Maurice Joly and from a novel by Hermann Goedesche, a 19th Century German anti-Semite. The final form of the Protocols first appeared in Russia in around 1905, becoming a best seller by 1920 and promoted in the USA by none other than Henry Ford, who when he wasn’t building cars was ranting and raving about Jews. It was first exposed as a forgery by Philip Graves of The Times in 1921, not before one Adolph Hitler had a chance to read it and believe it.
Most of the other so-called Jewish conspiracies are simply variations on the theme or strategies to achieve World domination over the last few hundred years. Let’s summarise a few of them:
- in 1775 Jews finance the American Revolution.
- in 1933 Jews conspired against the Germans and caused World War II.
- in 1990 Jews conspired against the Iraqis and caused the Gulf War.
- in 1999 Jews conspired to incite the bombing of Serbs in Serbia (The Serbian Defence League website, is subtitled documenting Zionist genocides on Serbs.)
- in 2001 Jews were the real instigators of 9-11.
- Jews have instigated, supported and financed World War I, the Cold War, the Korean War, the Vietnam War as part of a perpetual Jewish war against the rest of the World.
- Jews control the United States government through an organization known as ZOG (Zionist Occupation Government.)
Finally, the most repulsive, sinister and intellectually corrupt claim of all; the one that affirms that the Holocaust never happened, despite thousands of Jewish (and Gentile) eye witnesses, Nazi documents, newsreels and other photographic evidence. They suggest that the Holocaust was a Jewish conspiracy, a lie simply to engender sympathy from the World for the Jewish plight and yearning for a homeland of their own. One such Holocaust-denier, David Irving, sued an American academic, Deborah Lipstadt, in 2002 for claiming that he is a ‘Hitler partisan’ who twists history to cast the German dictator in a better light. He lost his case and his house and was declared bankrupt …
