| Saw Mr. Brooks on 60 Minutes this evening. As arrogant as ever. He's a legend in his own mind and those he's been able to fool over the years. He's had more misses than hits: Life Stinks, High Anxiety, need I list them all? Still harboring all that hatred for Uncle Adolph. Wonder why he doesn't have the same animosity towards Stalin, being the son of Russian jews? Interesting. Where's the movie, satire about the Bolsheviks? Umm, interesting. Don't want to write a satire about the 600,000 Christians murdered by the Bolsheviks? Sounds like good comedy to me! Put your money where your mouth is, Mr. Brooks, and knock off the propaganda and the self-serving whining, it's old and tired! As for trying to understand anti-semitism, here I'll help you out, right out of the mouth of one of your own people: Our major vice of old, as of today, is parasitism. We are a people of vultures living on the labor and the good nature of the rest of the world...What a sorry spectacle the Jews makes on this continent which he pretends to have enriched! Not only does he fail to contribute any glamor [culture and art] to the scene. He does not even contribute man-power. He does not dig wells, plough fields, forge skyscrapers, lay bricks, cut out trenches, spin wheels, bake dough, fell trees, pack tin cans, sweep streets, heave coal, fire furnaces, weave cloth, dig subways, raise ramparts, wall floods, rivet bridges, hinge gates, or fight fires...Towards the man-power of America, Jewry contributes only that which it catches in its own sweatshops, as in so many rat traps - set by itself. It seems to be part of the Jew's unwritten code that he should never work. Unless something happens to change his vision, I venture to add that he never will, either...I cannot find anything of value that the Jews have created in their 250 years residence on the American continent." (Samuel Roth, Jews Must Live, The Golden Hind Press, New York (1934), pp. 56, 101, 108). Shalom! Keke | ||
