Supremacists on ‘The Wandering Who’

October 7, 2011 in Israel, Jewish influence, Race, Reviews, Revisionism, Uncategorized, Zionism

Pressman’s Comment: The other day we featured Kevin MacDonald’s review of Gilad Atzmon’s latest book. Below is a more recent article by Atzmon where he address both MacDonald’s and Mark Gardner’s recent reviews. We would take issue with the word “supremacist”. This word is rolled out anytime a white person expresses a concern for restoring and enhancing the well being of white people. This is not an act of “supermacism” but one of self protection and care for ones fellow tribal members.

Atzmon also ends this piece with a quote from Sai Baba and a poor one at that, it being littered with myopic inaccuracies. Races exist and do so for a reason. Men are born unequal, live unequal lives and die unequally. The same applies to races. That said, Mr Atzmon raises some good points that expand the view considerably.

Two days ago I referred to a critique of ‘The Wandering Who’ written by Mark Gardner. Gardner is a rabid Zionist and Jewish supremacist who tends to conflate Jewish Nationalism (Zionism) with Jewish ethnicity. However, Gardner’s criticism of my book was, in the main, intelligent and fair, though certainly not free of error.

Yesterday, I found out that The Occidental Observer, a White Supremacist magazine, also published a lengthy review of ‘The Wandering Who’ written by Prof. Kevin MacDonald. Like Gardner, MacDonald also conflates Jewish ideology and culture with ethnicity. His most controversial claim is that a suite of traits that he attributes to Jews, including higher-than-average verbal intelligence and ethnocentrisms, have eugenically evolved to enhance the ability of Jews to outsmart non-Jews in the competition for resources while, at the same time, undermining the power and self-confidence of the white majorities in Europe and America who, he insists, Jews seek to dispossess. Just like Gardner, MacDonald produced an interesting text, though Macdonald’s was somewhat more scholarly.

A Review of Gilad Atzmon’s “The Wandering Who?”

October 5, 2011 in Israel, Jewish influence, Race, Reviews, Revisionism, Zionism

ORIGINAL ARTICLE HERE

Pressman’s Comment: Here at The OFP we provide links to the websites of both Gilad Atzmon and Kevin MacDonald. This review by MacDonald of Atzmon’s recently released book “The Wandering Who?” provides an excellent introduction into the salient points raised by Atzmon and faced by the people’s of the West for many hundreds if not thousands of years. As a primer for this most challenging of topics, it is of the first rank.

Gilad Atzmon, The Wandering Who? A Study of Jewish Identity Politics (Winchester, UK and Washington, DC: Zer0 Books, 2011, 202 pp.)

Gilad Atzmon is one of those rarest of all birds—the sort of person who would be called a “self-hating Jew” by Jewish activists. Except that he doesn’t really hate himself and really doesn’t have much of a Jewish identity at all. He is an honest leftist who happens to be of Jewish origin; or perhaps one should label him a liberal devoted to the values of the Enlightenment, without the typical Jewish blinders. Although he has a few blinders of his own, he sees quite clearly the incompatibility of Zionism with post-Enlightenment Western civilization.

For Atzmon, Zionism is all about Judaism as racial identity politics, ethnic cleansing, and manipulating Western governments via the Israel Lobby. As a child growing up in Israel, “supremacy was brewed into our souls, we gazed at the world through racist, chauvinistic binoculars. And we felt no shame about it either” (p. 2). He began his journey of embracing the West as a result of immersion in jazz. Eventually, “I somehow already yearned to become a Goy or at least to be surrounded by Goyim” (p. 7).

Sometimes it is easy for us to forget that, in the quite recent past, Holocaust revisionism was a thriving movement that exacted some pretty impressive concessions from mainstream historians. The 1970s and 80s witnessed the rise of revisionism as a vigorous network of activists from all walks of life, complete with filmmakers, military personnel, dramatists, clergymen, journalists, and university professors. During this period, revisionists succeeded in forcing mainstream Holocausters to distance themselves from many of their more ludicrous claims. Yet during the past fifteen or so years, revisionism has gone from being an exciting and formidable movement to a scattered, quiet, and frequently depressing jumble of independent publishing ventures that commands scant public attention.
