TRUMPDOM No. 2. ANTI-SEMITISM EXPLORED

Judeophobia firmly establishes Hellenistic Egypt as the generating source of anti-Semitism, with roots extending back into Egypt's pre-Hellenistic history. A pattern of ingrained hostility toward an alien culture emerges from comments on Jews and their religion in Greek and Roman writings. Two fierce outbursts of hostility in Egypt: the destruction of a Jewish temple in Elephantine in 410 B.C.E. and the riots in Alexandria in 38 C.E. fuelled by deep-seated ethnic resentments based on allegations of impiety, xenophobia, and misanthropy spread first to Syria-Palestine and then to Rome, where it acquired a new element: fear of this small but distinctive community. To the hatred and fear, ingredients of Christian theology were soon added.

Anti-Semitism and antisemitism. The unhyphenated spelling dispels the notion that there is an entity “Semitism" which 'anti-Semitism' opposes. Semitic refers to a linguistic group (Arabic. Ethiopian. Assyrian, Hebrew). There is no such thing as "Semitism" just as there is no such thing as Arabism or Englishism. Semite was used as a euphemism by the upper class for Jew. ‘Anti-Semite’, then, underlines the essentially racial attitude of contemporary Jews in describing themselves, emphasizing inherent and unchangeable inborn qualities (vs anti-Jewish, emphasizing the Jew as a socio-religious construct, a reaction to the dominant society). The use of the term Semite finesses a reasoned, rational objection to Jewish ideas and actions, and sticks to the mantra, "It is because of what we are, not of what we do." Judeophobia is a better term for anti-Jewishness.

At present (2025) Judeophobia is widespread in the world, increasing in vehemence every day. Israel’s mass murder of Palestinians is seen as worse than the Nazi atrocities in sadism and extent. The victims are not just Arabs, Moslem and Christian, but anyone who opposes Israeli actions or helps the victims. The unconscionable support given by the governments of U.S. and Germany to Israel  in its genocide leading to threats of imprisonment to anyone sympathizing with or defending Palestinians has angered the conscience of the world’s peoples who suspect these governments of being controlled by Jewish interests and money.

U.S. politicians vote for millions of dollars every year for Israel and supply it with weapons, which has caused in part U.S. moral and economic decline since the 1960s. President Lyndon Johnson (now considered one of the plotters of John Kennedy’s assassination) overturned Kennedy’s plans to withdraw from Vietnam and keep Israel from developing nuclear weapons. Johnson had Jewish ancestry and an aunt who was a practising Jew, which some authors say account for his censoring knowledge of Israel fighter jets attack on the U.S. Liberty, an unarmed reconnaissance ship monitoring Israel’s secret plans to attack an unsuspecting Egypt to start the 6-day War with Johnson’s knowledge. Israel intended to sink the American-flagged ship and leave no survivors. Many American sailors were killed and wounded but the ship did not sink; Israel planned for Egypt to be blamed. Johnson demanded that no word of the incident be made public. A false flag attack like this is Israeli modus operandi. Israel refuses to acknowledge international courts and sabotages the United Nations. In one of Israel’s attacks on Lebanon, Israeli artillery destroyed a U.N. pillbox harbouring a Japanese soldier and Canadian Captain monitoring the action for the United Nations. The Israelis knew they were killing United Nations’ observers, the news of which infuriated me, especially as Israel suffered no retribution. Indoctrinated into a sense of superiority and self-righteousness from an early age, Jews are easily led to see non-Jews as animals as voiced by Israeli leaders and interpret any anger at Jewish behaviour as part of general Judeophobia. A recent review of Josephine Baker’s memoir, Fearless and Free, related her fury at America’s race policy and by extension her anger at New York Jews who “are reducing coloured people to slaves” in Harlem. “Don’t they see that they’re summoning yet more tragedy onto themselves, onto their children too, that when the time comes, they’ll be more blamed than pitied.” Jews called her anti-Semitic, which she definitely was not. The reviewer, Ms Blume, instead of acknowledging the justification for Baker’s anger, expressed shock at certain “passages” and added that the Anti-defamation League released a study in January that found that around half of the adults across the world hold antisemitic beliefs and deny the “historic facts” of the holocaust. So Baker was at fault for her criticism, which reflected bias against Jewishness!

Thankfully many Jews, horrified by the right-wing Israeli government’s mass killings, protest against it and are aware of the inability of others to understand. Some have rejected their Jewishness and publicly such as the English directors of the Zone of Interest, for which they were condemned by 45 Jewish Hollywood film makers who align themselves with the mass killers.

I have been a critic of the Israeli attacks on Lebanon, the massacres in Palestinian refugee camps but always saw them as the national policy of warlike leaders, not as the will of the Jewish populace until now when Jews and nations under their influence call any criticism of Israel anti-Semitic and attack any sympathy for the besieged people of Gaza. As a result Judeophobia has become understandable, its flare-ups through centuries explainable. In my previous blogs on 9/11, I cited writers who examined Judaism to dig for the source of this hatred of goyim, but apart  from this scholarship, the average citizen complains of unfairness as in being taken advantage of or betrayal in financial matters or political control by Jewish interests, whether justified or not. Nazi hatred of Jews arose from such grievances heightened by propaganda by forces manipulating these suspicions to seize power. There are, however, internet posts and periodicals analyzing Jewish political dominance written by commentators who risk verbal and legal recrimination from Jewish organizations around the world. An interesting example is Stuck in the Muck: Musings and Ramblings About Conservatism These Days, part 1 and part 2 by John Massaro, whose digressions on the American backcountry are amusing because recognizably true. He has traveled widely and in Israel. His warning of Jewish control is powerful—for instance this passage from Part 2. “America is an insane asylum. Its top administrators are Jewish media executives with their own agenda who have created a false and bizarre ‘reality’ of the outside world for the inmates, primarily through the hypnosis of the television screen. Their methods are outright censorship, subtle slanting of what they decide is news, and blatant lies—the Hamas incursion into Israel being an example. Through their unmatched skill for global networking, they control a great deal of the world’s ‘news,’ certainly all of it in the White Western world, and nowhere more thoroughly than in the US. In a very real sense they have turned most American conservatives into Jewish clones who think of America and Israel as one and the same country with identical interests. To most conservatives, unconditional support of Israel is as American as baseball, apple pie and Chevrolet. I love the way they throw the word “terrorist” around. If we can agree that terrorism is the indiscriminate slaughter of innocent civilians in order to achieve an objective, or just for the hell of it, then the US government, which through aerial bombing has killed more noncombatant civilians outside its borders than any nation in history, is the bloodiest terrorist organization of all time. You can hate me or threaten me for saying that, but that’s not going to change objective reality. If you leave this insane asylum and view the US from the outside, from other parts of the world, reality suddenly becomes very different. . . Israel’s track record of aggression and terror against its Arab neighbours, and treachery against the US, its greatest benefactor, is long and damning. There are many books that document this but you won’t find them in your local library or bookstore because of behind-the-scenes Jewish pressure, mainly from the Anti-Defamation League. . . The Zionist Connection, by a brave, renegade American Jew named Alfred Lilienthal thoroughly documents “the other side of the story,” and even though it was published in 1978, it’s still worth reading as it covers events in most of the twentieth century. The ugly history of this impossible country has followed seamlessly in the last 45 years.”

Massaro figures he’s read about forty books on what has long been called the “Jewish Question” [see Karl Marx’s essay] and about the problems in the Middle East. “Most Americans have never heard of these books because of Jewish blacklisting, not even books by prominent historical figures like Martin Luther’s On the Jews and Their Lies (1543), and Henry Ford’s The International Jew: The World’s Foremost Problem (1920). So please excuse my immodesty, but I think I know more about Jewish nature and events in the Middle East than 99.99% of American couch potatoes. I read Adolf Hitler’s Mein Kampf, thinking it would be an excursion to the depths of a profoundly psychotic mind. But before I finished the first ten pages I was mesmerized, realizing this man was a genius, and the further I read I was repeatedly astonished by his clarity of vision, not only about Jews, but his understanding of mass psychology and everything else about the human condition. But I was still repelled by his attempt to exterminate all the Jews in Europe. Enter my third epiphany, my discovery and reading of The Hoax of the Twentieth Century by Arthur Butz, an exhaustively researched book of meticulous scholarship which thoroughly demolished the absurd story that six million Jews died at the hands of the Nazis, mostly in gas chambers.”

Needless to say, I, like most people I know or mixed with, would avoid Mein Kampf as the insidious musings of a madman and, of course, Henry Ford has been thoroughly denounced as a rabid anti-semite. Butz has been called an obscure University professor whose writings have no merit. I have the book online but daunted by its detail I have not tried to read it. Now I will and also Mein Kampf to discover the truth of the propaganda. There are questions about the veracity of holocaust literature which we will discuss in my next blog, including Victor Thorn who revealed official lies about 9/11 and wrote a revelatory book on the holocaust; he was thought a victim of the Mossad, shot while walking in the hills nears home. 

Finally I copy Massaro’s harsh judgment on Jewry, influenced no doubt by Israel’s relentless genocide of its neighbours: “My philosophy is live and let live, and I’d be thrilled to see Israel make peace with its Arab neighbours and to see an end to all this death and suffering. But as a realist and a student of history I know that Jews, taken as a whole, are a unique people who have endlessly subverted and destroyed other nations and have always brought hatred upon themselves no matter where in the world they are because of who they are and what they do. They have never created a normal, viable country of their own as we know it, nor formed a constructive relationship with the people among whom they dwell. Not once, ever. That’s why they were expelled en masse from nearly every country in Europe over the ages — some say 109 times. They are a constant problem. They are the ruin of the world, and now threaten to plunge the Middle East into another catastrophic war, like the two previous world wars they deliberately provoked, not to mention the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian bloodbath in which they have played a major role.” [He speaks of Ashkenazis (see blog 9/11 Belief and Control) not the Sephardic Jews, the original Palestinians, many of whom converted to Christianity and Mohammedanism.] 

A Jew wants to be at one with his neighbours or fellow workers just as anyone. Unfortunately he/she faces a choice when the overworld of politics demands loyalty to a course he/she would not support as an individual. Will conscience or obedience to ideology win out? I raised this problem in Overworld/Underworld. I find that loyalty to religion or race or ideology is stronger than conscience most of the time because independent thought requires character.

New York Times journalist Tom Friedman declared the far-right leadership of Israel to be frightening and unrecognizable to the average Jew, that it is America’s enemy. Observers connect this statement with Trump’s possible break with Netanyahu over attempts to manipulate him on Near East policy using pro-Israeli spies in cabinet that led to dismissals and relocations of high officials in Washington. Trump will face opposition in Congress from politicians wholly owned by Israel such as Senators Graham, Cotton and Cruz if he deals with Iran, ignoring Israel. Also Trump’s intention to occupy Gaza and its rich oil and gas reserves as U.S. territory will bring the full force of the Israeli lobby on him. But as relationships shift, there is general recognition that some U.S. independence of action in its Middle Eastern foreign policy can only be a good thing “as the lopsided relationship with Israel has brought nothing but grief and suffering.”  

 TRUMPDOM. No. 1

In Donald Trump’s first four years of the Presidency of the United States, the reporter Bob Woodward in a telephone interview told him that he wished to interview him to “know” him. Trump replied “You don’t know me.” In other words, “You don’t know what I am capable of.” The world has a greater knowledge in Trump’s second term as President of the depth of evil to which he will descend. His MAGA supporters, many of whom are seniors who believe his promises to make their lives better despite Trump’s reckless cutting of the social benefits they depend on to survive such as medicare and social security, refuse to acknowledge the truth about him as if to do so will leave them bereft of meaning. Trump controls Republican politicians by threats to unseat them or unleash his violence on them and their families through his thuggish supporters and by persuading them that his right-wing policies to make the rich richer will give them power or, at the least, the certainty of lasting control of government. (The veiled autocratic mindset of Republicans may account for their behaviour; recent polling reveals that the Republican voter is very supportive of their representatives.) The change in character and beliefs of Republican Congressmen and voters to obey the dictates of a man whose amorality they despised before converting to his practice of deception and corruption has mystified citizens who believe in the sanctity of their Constitution and the rule of law. The millions of Christian and Jewish worshippers who see in Trump either a saviour or a warrior forwarding their far right ideologies seem like lemmings dashing towards the cliffs of destruction while destroying the lives of everyone else.

Trump had no difficulty in filling his administration’s offices with inexperienced puppets declaring their absolute loyalty to him and helping themselves to the spoils of a criminalized government. Republican Congressmen, who form the majority in Congress, thanks to a duped electorate, applaud Trump’s whims and “unhinged” actions, indifferent to signs of the nation lurching into a more dangerous rogue role than formerly. Years ago, Noam Chomsky, the much respected analyst of world politics, declared Israel to be the most dangerous nation and the United States the second most dangerous. Now the two nations have melded into one and become relentless in genocidal war and obsessed with manufacturing and selling the most powerful weapons that man can devise. 

Trump began his second term with slapping tariffs on all nations exporting to the U.S. This caused chaos and the stock market to lose 10 trillion dollars.1 Citizens protested in the millions his destruction of government agencies and their loss of social supports as his billionaire cronies dismissed thousands of government employees without cause. Trump’s threats to annex nations such as Canada are met with dismay while his alliance with the Russian tyrant Putin against the democratic nations of Europe and especially Ukraine fighting for its life against an invading Russia jolted its allies to mistrust the U.S. and realign themselves against it to safeguard their democracies. Meanwhile Trump creates opportunities to fill his pockets, as exemplified by his encouragement to favoured insider traders during his manipulation of tariffs.

As a Canadian who lived decades in New York City and experienced the U.S. slide into untrustworthy governments intent on plunder by armed force, I see the divorce of Canada from the U.S. as rescuing Canadians from American pressure to join in its mass murders and demolition of ancient cultures. Canadians watch in alarm as lawful Americans struggle to maintain honesty and respect for law against the breakdown of both and Trump’s mad drive to prosecute those who exposed his lies, those who enforced the laws to stop his many criminal activities and those who showcased for public knowledge his treachery in attempting to overthrow the elected government by armed rebellion. The democratic body of citizenry, abandoned by indoctrinated Republicans in Congress and betrayed by Trump’s obsequious organs of justice, must rely formally on the courts to save the nation from autocracy and informally on themselves by mass protests throughout the country. The loss of integrity, the menace of unjust arrest and imprisonment when freedom of speech becomes a crime, the subservience of masses of persons in positions of authority—police, army reserves, etc—the absence of empathy for an unarmed, imprisoned people of Palestine exterminated by ruthless predators using weapons of unimaginable mass destruction and of indiscriminate shooting, torture, starvation, spread of disease, converting those predators into ravenous animals devoid of thought. Americans aware of their predicament but paralyzed to remedy it cannot escape the fate forewarned by writers such as George Orwell and many current writers who have been shouting warnings unheard by a citizenry reduced to watching television in place of reading. Timidity, ideology, whatever enslaves the mind to dismiss the horrors they witness daily must be overcome; otherwise humans become robots and lose the will to honour the truth. The remorseless control of Jewish and Christian Zionists over the media in Western nations, particularly in the United States, Britain and Canada, has deadened the minds of the public so that rather than the citizens rising up as one to throw Trump, Netanyahu and their acolytes out of office and try them as war criminals, they stand by, some approvingly, as innocent young students are rounded up for speaking the truth and immigrants are falsely accused of criminality and sent to prison without due process.

A blog by Rimar Najjar, “The Ugly Israeli Denounced” in June 2024 illustrates the vile character that shapes Israeli and by extension many American lives: “Even before Israel exposed its heart of darkness to the world in the aftermath of Oct 7, the term ‘the ugly Israeli’ was already a thing. According to many reports, Israelis traveling internationally have developed a reputation for unruliness, rudeness, and assertiveness; observed instances of Israelis arguing, yelling, and disregarding rules have led to negative perceptions by airline staff and other travelers abroad, and even to a Ynet news report that wonders, “Are Israel’s tourists the worst in the world?” . . . The Zionist Jewish entity controls not only the content and limits of Jewish identity, but also the content and limits of Palestinian lives. It is their grandiose and self-absorbed national character, their “distance from humanity,” their “millennia-old disdain for non-Jews” (i.e., their racism), shaping the horrendous and unjust world in which Palestinians have lived for more than 76 years, that makes the Israeli public complicit in genocide. . . . Is it really possible that the Israeli public is unaware of the story the whole world is watching with horror, a story of “famished Palestinians killed outside aid trucks on Al-Rashid Street in February; of tent-dwellers in Rafah burned alive in Israeli air strikes; of women and children subsisting on 245 calories a day? Do they honestly believe what Benjamin Netanyahu describes as ‘the victory of Judaeo-Christian civilization against barbarism?’ . . . Like the Nazi regime in Germany, the Zionist regime has been highly effective in its use of propaganda (hasbara), including exploitation of the Holocaust, to shape public opinion, especially the Jewish-Zionist entity’s own public.”

Has the public gone as mad as Donald Trump, vicious, deceitful, cruel and uncaring? Some Americans realize that by being acquiescent they have lost rights that the U.S. Constitution used to ensure and can be arrested on a whim without due process to be sent in chains to a third-world nation eager to imprison them for life if the U.S. pays for their disappearance. U.S. courts, when not corrupted, constrain in vain an executive reflecting Trump’s disregard for their decisions; thus they are alone in upholding the law while the Democrats out of power try to warn the public of the autocracy stripping them of their freedoms. Trump’s readiness to imprison citizens because of thoughts critical of him they might think in the future highlights the lunacy and remorselessness of his governing. These dangers became real within the first fifty days of his rule; what is to come will change that nation and affect the rest of the world in the cruelest way. Anyone, including his supporters, if they annoy him, will be imprisoned as severely as a serial killer, that is if the serial killer is not working for Trump. “The crazies are running the asylum.”

Huge citizen protests of Trump’s policies, angry condemnations of Republican congressmen for supporting them do not restrain Trump from pursuing his agenda for dictatorship and alliance with murderous dictatorships the world over. In the final confrontation brute force will determine our future. Some see nuclear war as inevitable because world leaders of unsound mind and self-importance have seized control. Reason alone confronts them.

LBJ: The Mastermind of the JFK Assassination by Phillip F. Nelson)

“The logistics of the “crime of the century” had been worked out by men who held some of the highest offices of the government and involved about a dozen; they also had access to an assortment of the best equipment available to carry out their mission. But most did not know any more than that which they needed to know to perform their own part. Only three at the top, another three or four in the middle, and as many again at the bottom, including the actual shooters, were aware of the real agenda. The others were part of the loosely accountable, compartmentalized world of covert operations and had no knowledge of the ultimate objective of their assignments. Many were veterans of “Operation Mongoose” and were now actively involved in ZR/RIFLE or “Operation 40,” but this operation was only supposed to be a failed assassination attempt, for vague purposes to them. The only unifying object of their diversionary mission was the promise of being the catalyst for a new and energized retaliatory attack on Cuba to finally achieve the permanent removal of Fidel Castro.

According to an interview conducted by Dick Russell, Gerry Patrick Hemming told him that “none again at the bottom, including the actual shooters, were aware of the real agenda.

The week before the assassination, Felipe Vidal Santiago told my group that some people had approached him to go to a big meeting in Dallas that week,” Hemming said. “We warned him and some other people not to go, that something funny was up. I’d heard of other meetings, where the conversation got steered around toward hitting JFK instead of Fidel. I’m talking about … some “Sometime after the shots were fired, it must have occurred to Oswald that he was being played as a “patsy,” and if he didn’t get out of there immediately, he would probably be shot dead upon capture. A “suspect description” of unknown origin, which loosely matched Oswald, was broadcast as an “All Points Bulletin” about then; Ruby might have been the source. It appears that Ruby had told him to meet him at the Texas Theater as soon as possible that afternoon but he had to go back to his apartment first to retrieve his pistol, for his own self-protection. Oswald headed back to his apartment to get it as well as change his shirt. The plan after that, he had been told, would then be to reconnoiter at Redbird Airport with pilots who would then fly him to Mexico with papers and visa for entry into Cuba to begin preparing for the coming U.S. invasion. Oswald thought that, finally, he would achieve his ultimate lifetime goal: becoming a full-time, well-paid spy just like his hero from I Led Three Lives. Ruby had expected that the police would track him to the theater and kill him “in charge of the operational and logistical end of the plan, took his orders from Bill Harvey who reported only to two men at the highest levels of the CIA, James Jesus Angleton and Cord Meyer.

 “The highest levels of the operation had set the “stage” in many ways, beginning with the virtually complete elimination of the normal protection given to the president. In addition to the absence of more than a few patrolmen, no effort had been made, as was the norm, to see to it that all the windows in the buildings around Dealey Plaza were closed and that normal security checks of personnel within those buildings had been made. The motorcade route—which could have alternately gone straight down Main Street to a temporary crossover onto the Stemmons Expressway and the Trade Mart—would require the limousine to go into a 120-degree turn at the Elm Street intersection, which ensured that the vehicle would slow to a crawl. Shortly after that, the driver would be instructed over the radio to slow down, even stop, at a place in the road next to a man with an open umbrella now marked with a big white X.

Meanwhile, as the limousine lurched to a brief halt, the snipers, including a Corsican sharpshooter and a Mafia hit man—expert shooters using expensive, highly accurate automatic rifles with equally precise telescopic sights—let loose a “a volley of at least five more shots, the first one at almost the same time as the missed shot, hitting Kennedy in the throat, the next hitting him in the back. As Kennedy reacted to that by leaning to his left, another similarly placed shot missed him and hit Connally in the back. The last volley consisted of one from the back, hitting Kennedy in the back of the head and causing his body to jerk forward; within a fraction of a second, the last shot was fired from behind the fence on the grassy knoll. This was the instantly fatal shot, which hit him in the right front side of his head, violently pushing it backward while exploding his skull and causing most of his brain tissue from the right splash backward, hitting the motorcycle policemen riding to the left rear corner of the limousine.*

Lee Bowers, watching from the railroad yard tower, told Mark Lane, “At the time of the shooting … there was a flash of light or, as far as I am concerned, something I could not identify, but there was something which occurred which caught my eye in this immediate area on the embankment. Now, what this was, I could not state at that time and at this time I could not identify it, other than there was some unusual occurrence—a flash of light or smoke or something which caused me to feel like something out of the ordinary had occurred there.”13 There was no question in the mind of Lee Bowers that a shot, possibly more than one, was fired from the area of the wooden stockade fence. It is interesting that Bowers also told of the men’s use of a walkie-talkie.

”

“ It is the insightful observations by people such as Senator Yarborough that lend additional credence to the conclusions formed in this book about Johnson’s absolute control over all aspects of the cover-up operation; he was the final arbiter in the decisions of what evidence would be used and what would be discarded, what would be tagged for rebuilding or fabricating and what would be “inadvertently” lost or destroyed.

This evidence shows that Johnson and Hoover—and probably H. L. Hunt as well, since he had quickly departed Dallas for Washington DC after having been called there by J. Edgar Hoover—participated in directing the Z film alterations throughout the weekend following Kennedy’s murder. Johnson no doubt knew in advance—undoubtedly having even preplanned the general steps—the need for having body alterations made to support the favored “lone nut” theory if that option was selected, which it was, as described below. By the time the photos began coming in, Johnson must have also wished he could have also gotten to the Altgens photo a little earlier, to have his picture pasted into the spot where he should have been. It is obvious that the reason for his dissembling[ “contrived “testimony” to the Warren Commission was due to his absence in that photograph, as evidenced by his claim concerning agent Youngblood’s fictitious act of immediately slamming him to the floor. Based upon these stunning revelations, it should now be clear to all that there were three people—two following the script laid by the other—who were jointly orchestrating this particular vignette. But it was all according to the grand play—a masterpiece of design and execution—which had been developed over a period of nearly four years by the most brilliant, and evil, political force the country had ever seen: Lyndon B. (“Bull”) Johnson, determined at all costs to fulfill his lifelong dream, in the only realistic way possible for him to become president of the United States. P 512

Excerpt From

LBJ: The Mastermind of the JFK Assassination

Phillip F. Nelson

“Dr. Perry to change his testimony.’ Moore said that in threatening Perry, he acted ‘on orders from Washington and Mr. Kelly of the Secret Service Headquarters.’ … Moore [admitted that he] ‘badgered Dr. Perry’ into ‘making a flat statement that there was no entry wound in the neck’ … [and said] ‘I regret what I had to do with Dr. Perry’ … [but] he had been given ‘marching orders from Washington … I did everything I was told, we all did everything we were told, or we’d get our heads cut off.’”66 In April 1992, almost twenty-nine years after the assassination, Dr. Crenshaw finally broke his own silence: 

I believe there was a common denominator in our silence—a fearful perception that to come forward with what we believed to be the medical truth would be asking for trouble. Although we never admitted it to one another, we realized that the inertia of the established story was so powerful, so thoroughly presented, so adamantly accepted, that it would bury anyone who stood in its path … I was as afraid of the men in suits as I was of the men who had assassinated the President … I reasoned that anyone who[ “would go so far as to eliminate the President of the United States would surely not hesitate to kill a doctor.

After Crenshaw’s book rose to number one on the New York Times’ best-seller list, he was attacked mercilessly by people who were not interested in the truth being revealed. Ultimately, it was the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) that leaped into the fray to attempt to discredit one of their members. They first tried to deny that Dr. Crenshaw was even in Trauma Room One with President Kennedy; that scurrilous charge was quickly addressed by records submitted by Dr. Crenshaw, including Warren Commission testimony establishing that five different doctors and nurses specifically mentioned seeing him working with them to revive the president. There is no question that he was there and in 1994, a court agreed, awarding Dr. Crenshaw and his coauthor, Gary Shaw, a sum of money and ordering JAMA to publish a rebuttal article. There is more to the story of JAMA’s egregious attempt to reinforce a discredited theory by attempting to deny the truth, but due to space limitations, and the fact that the point has now been adequately covered, the matter “will be suspended; enough has been said for the reader to ponder who was behind the motivation for the slanderous treatment of Dr. Charles Crenshaw.

But the real reason for the attempt to discredit Dr. Crenshaw had nothing to do with his involvement with other doctors working on John F. Kennedy; it was really about what he said regarding a telephone call received during the time he assisted Dr. Shires in trying to save Lee Harvey Oswald’s life. Dr. Crenshaw stated that Lyndon Johnson personally called the hospital about an hour after Oswald had been admitted, asking him to secure Oswald’s “deathbed confession.” Practically everyone in the country knew about Oswald’s shooting almost immediately after he was shot at 11:21 a.m. (12:21 p.m. in Washington), whether or not they personally saw it on live television in real time on Sunday morning. Johnson had heard about it on his way back from one of his rare appearances in a church, when Secretary of State Rusk informed him. The call which Johnson made to Dr. Crenshaw was made at the full height of his excited reaction to the news that the assassin had been shot, and he thought that “ getting Oswald’s “confession” would help to put a lid on any further investigation. .  . “A quick whisper to his wife to excuse himself for a few minutes for whatever reason (e.g., a restroom stop) would have freed him to go there to use the telephone to make this short call; after Dr. Crenshaw took it, the call was over within half a minute. Johnson wanted Dr. Crenshaw to take a message to the operating surgeon, Dr. Shires. “I want a death-bed confession from the accused assassin. There’s”“a man in the operating room who will take the statement. I will expect full cooperation in this matter,” he said firmly.71 Such a call, made from a telephone in his office at the Capitol Building, would not have been placed through the White House switchboard; therefore no record of it would have existed. Not that the existence of records of Johnson’s telephone calls should matter regardless; he seems to have figured out ways to make calls that never appear in the official logs. For example, one such call, according to William Manchester, was made by him to J. Edgar Hoover at 7:25 p.m. on Friday evening.72 He also conferred with Hoover from 9:10 to 9:25 p.m. that evening.73 However, there is no record of either call in Johnson’s official diary, nor has a tape of either conversation been made public. There is no question but that Johnson and Hoover talked frequently by telephone throughout the first several days and weeks after the assassination and that only a few of their conversations were actually taped. Readers are urged to view the video interview of Dr. Crenshaw on YouTube.com to consider his veracity, as “compared to that of LBJ and his apologists.

 9/11, Cause and Effect.  No 1

We begin a search into the actors and reasons for their actions in causing the destruction of the World Trade Center with references to Nafeez Ahmed’s The War on Freedom; How and Why America was Attacked. September 11, 2001.(published in 2002).

Ahmed was Executive Director of the Institute for Policy Research & Development in Brighton, England. He was a leading political scientist and human rights activist. His book provides a basis for discovering the political motives and exposes the deceptions of the Bush Administration which led to its opposition to any investigation of one of the greatest crimes committed on the nation’s soil.

By asking who benefitted by the attack, Ahmed posits some facts that he developed: (1) Significant elements of U.S. government, military and intelligence agencies had extensive advance warning of the 11th September attacks and were in various ways complicit in those attacks. (2) The war on Afghanistan launched in October 2001 had been planned for at least a year, and in general terms related to regional strategic and economic interests, had actually been rooted in at least four years of strategic planning. . . . All that was required was a trigger for those war plans, which was amply supplied by the tragic events of 11th September.

 (3) The American intelligence community received multiple authoritative warnings, both general and specific, of a terrorist attack  on the U.S. using civilian airliners as bombs, targeting key buildings located in the nation’s capital and New York City and likely to occur around early to mid-September yet no public warnings were given and no appropriate measures were taken. (4) Emergency response systems suffered consistently inexplicable failures on that day, allowing the attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon to continue without an effective air response. A detailed investigation of the actual chronology of events on 11th September strongly suggests that this sort of massive systematic failure was possible only through wilful obstructions from key U.S. government and military officials. (5) It is a documented fact that the Bush administration systematically blocked investigations of terrorists involved or strongly suspected of being involved—including Osama bin Laden, his family and suspect royals who support him—prior to 11th September. Even after 11th September the Bush administration has continued to misdirect investigations and block pertinent inquiries and sealed any inquiry into the complicity of the ISI (Pakistani intelligence).

Ahmed concludes: the Bush administration used the events to justify the consolidation of elite power and profit within the U.S. and throughout the world by exploiting the murder of thousands of innocent civilians to crack down on domestic freedoms while launching a ruthless bombing campaign on the largely helpless people of Afghanistan, directly resulting in the further killing of almost double the number of civilians who died on 9-11. It facilitated the attacks, protected those responsible, blocked attempts to prevent the attacks and maintained close political, financial, military and intelligence ties to key figures who supported those responsible. The role that the U.S. government has played both historically and currently in key events leading up to and after 11th September, strongly suggests U.S. responsibility for those events.

The world economy, in free fall before 9/11, was rescued with the corporate bail-out by Bush, allowing the corporate elite to escape the worst effects of the recession, which, as a result had no negative impact on Bush & Co. The Bush and Obama administrations gave power and riches to the elite and ignored the working classes sinking into poverty. District Attorney Jim Garrison had warned that the U.S. was slowly eroding into a proto-fascist state. “In a very real and terrifying sense, our Government is the CIA and the Pentagon, with Congress reduced to a debating society,” he said years ago. Today, with the threat of losing its democratic way of governing to a proto-fascist autocracy led by Donald Trump, his prophetic words impel us to trace the trail that led us here. “I’ve come to realize that in Washington, deceiving and manipulating the public are viewed by some as the natural prerogatives of office,” Garrison added. He experienced the hypocrisy and opposition of the government when investigating the John F. Kennedy assassination. Younger citizens may consider the 9/11 tragedy as the root of the nation’s decline. Older citizens may blame the government leaders who cast the nation into the Vietnam War with all its lies and disinformation. The many books that I shall refer to will trace that road to perdition by the grace of intelligent, fearless investigators for whom truth is indispensable for living. At the same time we must take into account that the government can spy on its citizens under new powers given it by the Patriot Act which eliminated the checks and balances that gave courts the opportunity to ensure that these powers were not abused. Also Bush Jr. changed the Executive Order governing the release of Presidential records by drastically restricting public access to them. Governments that hide their doings from the people they serve are criminal in nature and destructive in action.

The Kennedy Assassinations

Laurent Guyenol’s The Unspoken Kennedy Truth (2020, 2023) offers a point of departure for our study. Lyndon Baines Johnson is the prime plotter behind the assassinations — an airtight conclusion that Guyenol makes.

What were Johnson’s motives? Johnson’s dream before entering politics was to become president, which seemed quixotic since he came from Texas, a poor and politically weak state. When Jack Kennedy decided to run on the Democratic ticket for president, he was pressured against his will to take Johnson as Vice-president or he would lose the support of powerful politicians in his party. Johnson saw the vice-presidency as his sole path to the presidency. Nearing the end of his first term in office, Kennedy decided to dump Johnson in favour of a running mate who would not undermine him as Johnson often did. Johnson was facing prosecution for various crimes about to be revealed in court by two of his sidekicks so that it was imperative that he be president to quash those cases. Kennedy wanted to close down the CIA and reform the secret services whose deceit about their attacks on Cuba had brought the nation to the brink of nuclear war with Russia. Kennedy fired Dulles and his aides which earned him their enmity and refused to entertain the war mongers comprising his military advisers such as General LeMay, which earned their hatred. Kennedy and Russian president Khrushchev secretly worked together to rid the world of nuclear weapons, which meant defying the militant forces in their governments which expected to earn riches by their manufacture. Johnson sided with these forces to gain their political support. When Kennedy pressured Israel to stop developing nuclear weapons to maintain his goal of a nuclear-free world, Israel saw him as an enemy to be replaced by Johnson whose Jewish background made him a fierce supporter. Kennedy also angered the organized crime element throughout the nation which answered to the Meyer Lansky Jewish mafia because his brother as attorney-general had prosecuted many mafia in an effort to free the nation of their influence in politics and business. Johnson, however, was allied with these criminal elements and depended on their support to win elections. He relied on their cooperation in getting rid of Kennedy and his brother Bobby. Finally, Kennedy intended to withdraw American troops from Vietnam and shortly before his assassination drew up an order to that effect. To avoid the violent blow-back from the military and weapons-makers who would have sabotaged his re-election, Kennedy would make it public after his re-election. Johnson was on the side of the warriors and, if he knew of the order he would have alerted his allies to encourage their cooperation in the planned assassination.

Kennedy distrusted Johnson and may have known some of Johnson’s murderous past. He probably did not suspect Johnson of murdering him, although he was loath to go to Texas to mend the political antagonisms there, which Johnson insisted that he do. Kennedy did remark to friends about the horrors that would descend on the country if Johnson were president. (See LBJ: The Mastermind of the JFK Assassination by Phillip F. Nelson)

 9/11 “Another Nineteen; Investigating Legitimate 9/11 Suspects”. No 9. 

That is the title of a book by Kevin Ryan, who deals exclusively with the 9/11 actors within the United States. Ryan’s exposure of these people is comprehensive and incisive. Rather than summarize it, I recommend reading it and several other books that undress the moles. One important point, however, has to be noticed; it contradicts the official account and the myth of al Qaeda. Abu Zubaydah, called “al Qaeda’s chief of operations,” was tortured for years to provide information about al Qaeda’s involvement until the U.S. government had to admit that he had never been a member of al Qaeda or a supporter of any armed forces allied against the U.S. The public, forced to realize that all the government’s claims about Arab involvement were false, had to question “how much of the War on Terror was built on the torture testimony of a man who clearly could not have known anything about al Qaeda.” 

Ryan writes, “The crimes of 9/11 appear to have been a deception planned and  perpetrated by powerful interests associated with a private network of deep state operatives, some of whom were embedded within U.S. political and military institutions.” Christopher Bollyn in Solving 9-11 wrote, “The facts indicate that the 9/11 cover-up is a Zionist operation in which partisans of the state of Israel have played all the key roles. . . . The evidence of Israeli involvement in 9-11 is so obvious that the senior editors in the controlled media don’t even let their journalists approach the subject. The journalists of the “free press” in the United States are confined to the same ‘Auschwitz of the mind’ as the American public they write for. . . . Likewise, when it comes to tracking the Israeli criminal network that has operated in the United State for decades, the U.S. media is a dog that won’t bark—or hunt.”

An estimate of the cost of the wars resulting from 9/11 was $6 trillion. Deaths from the Iraq War were over a million. Deaths of U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq doubled the victims from 9/11 attacks. Add to these facts “the loss of civil rights reflected in a police state legislation, the moral losses involved in torture and the near total loss of public trust in government.” The wars of Western nations against Libya, Syria, Yemen, Lebanon and the creation of dictatorships such as in Egypt have led to millions of deaths and mass emigrations. The U.S. and Israeli wholesale murder of Palestinians in Gaza and their betrayal of the Ukrainians whom Russia is trying to exterminate are now linked in an evil goal to capture Gaza oil and Ukraine’s minerals.

An admission by Israeli officials in Global Report verifies what I have written about the War on Gaza. “On 7 October 2023, Israel itself killed her own people. Israel’s former defence minister, Yoav Gallant, admitted that Israeli troops were ordered to invoke the “Hannibal Directive” leading to “hundreds” reportedly killed by Israeli forces. The Hannibal Directive, also translated as Hannibal Procedure or Hannibal Protocol, is used by Israel Defence Forces (IDF) to prevent the capture of Israeli soldiers by enemy forces by killing these soldiers. Investigations by independent journalists and international bodies confirm this. The Zionist media in Israel, Britain, the USA, etc. downplayed the IDF’s indiscriminate mass murder of Palestinian people under the guise of eradicating Hamas. The high rate of slaughter of journalists in Gaza was part of the Israeli scheme for controlling media coverage and public perception of the genocide followed by using the media to whip up public antagonism by emphasizing concocted accounts of the rape and baby-killing by Hamas “terrorists”. The actual raping of women and baby-killing is being done by Israeli soldiers as part of the forever war on Palestinians while the U.S. looks away and continues its billion dollar “aid” (pay-off) to Israel.

Thierry Meyssan in Before Our Very Eyes; Fake Wars and Big Lies From 9/11 to Donald Trump reveals the hypocrisy of the national leaders and their misinforming of the public. He wrote, “The reorganization of the world began in the political zone known as ‘The Great Middle East’, that is to say, stretching from Afghanistan to Morocco, with the exception of Israel, Lebanon and Yeman, which already has caused several million deaths.” While new middle classes appeared in the third world and Asian states moved onto the world stage, western middle classes began to disappear. The democratic institutions they built could not survive. Populations of entire regions were crushed, starting with those of the African Great Lakes. This first regional war caused 6 million deaths in Angola, Burundi, Namibia, Uganda, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, and Zimbabwe, which was met with general incomprehension and indifference. The aim of the West was to seize the natural resources of these countries and pay less and less for them, which meant dealing with gangs rather than with the States who had to feed their populations. U.S. armies no longer defended principles or humane interests. They were used to reorganize the world by dividing it into two parts—the states integrated into the globalized economy as against the rest. Suffering from the Western recession caused by the crookedness of the financiers, whose banks collapsed along with their national industries, middle and working classes demanded that their leaders replace the financial system with the productive capitalism of the Cold War or invent a new system, to prevent the West from sinking into a long period of internal chaos. The working classes have to confront the globalized upper class, which in the U.S. is the oligarchy fiercely determined to crush them. This led to cries for a saviour and the election of a hyped manipulator.

As Fintane O’Neil wrote in the New York Review of Books, (12/6/24): “Trump's second coming may not quite herald the end of the world, but it will hand the ship of state over to a motley crew of libertines and libertarians, control freaks and fanatics. It will stage its own spectacles of mass roundups and treason trials for the amusement of the many millions who are, it now seems abundantly clear, entertained by exhibitions of cruelty. It will be a non-stop show, its cacophonous sound track amplified by Elon Musk and the thriving denizens of the digital manosphere.” 

 A criminalizing of the government enriches the privileged while destroying the public services citizens rely upon and frightening them by the brutal assaults of a thoughtless police indifferent to the law and human decency. Backed by Zionist power, which uses U.S. wealth in Israel’s wars, Trump expunges democratic justice. His administration’s lawlessness, his destruction of U.S. government institutions, abetted by “bought” politicians and irresponsible appointees to the nation’s highest offices, awakened many Americans to mistrust Trump’s boasts to improve the lives of the working class. Huge crowds cry foul throughout the United States as they fear totalitarian rule and recognize Trump’s scorn for them. Trump’s traitorous alliance with Russia  and abandonment of Ukraine broke the West apart; Trump and other predatory populists now confront liberal democracies. Trump’s tariff wars against other nations, who were U.S. allies, including Canada, are intended to destroy economies—in Canada’s case leading to its being incorporated into the U.S. by force. 

Enough has been revealed for an observer to connect the dots to see how one manufactured “terrorist event” followed another and were reported falsely to alarm world citizenry to accept a curtailment of civil liberties. The recent release of archived papers relating to the assassination of John F. Kennedy has brought recognition of hidden truths to the surface, the greatest being Israel’s major contribution to his death to end his support of the Palestinians and opposition to Israel’s developing nuclear weapons. Lyndon Johnson, Kennedy’s successor and Israel’s champion, reversed Kennedy’s goals for peace and brought perpetual war and Israeli dominance of American foreign policy to permanency, which the Zionists have abused for Israel’s gains and America’s loss, indeed, for the destruction of all that was good in humanity.

The perpetrators behind the 9/11 tragedy and succeeding criminal events may escape accountability, but they will suffer if and when their conscience breaks free from its state of denial. Of course, some like Biden, Trump and Netanyahu have no conscience.

Having reached this point of existential danger we shall focus on the destruction of social order.

[Regarding Laura Jadczyk’s reference to entire rows of passengers in aircraft seats found in the ruins of the WTC crashes (mentioned in “9/11 Ghost Planes and Continuity of Government”), she was citing a government rumour to question by contrast the government’s claim that “no discernible remains were left” in the crash into the Pentagon. “Rows of dead passengers,” we assume, was a false government statement quickly replaced by the official statement on the WTC crashes, “no remains, just dust.”]

 9/11 The Culprits.  No 8. 

Efforts to identify the main players  in the “attack on America” have brought scores of names to public attention. For such a complicated operation which was planned for years before it took place and required the cooperation of hundreds of complicit people, some carrying out the intentions of the U.S. government and some undermining those intentions to bring about a crisis in which one side gained control over the other, one must understand the aims of both sides. Two forces that cooperated on the government side were secretive: the Continuation of Government committee was begun in President Regan’s administration with Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and CIA Director James Woolsey among others. It met through the following administrations and was activated by Richard Clark to meet the 9/11 crisis. Thierry Meysan in his indispensable book Before Our Very Eyes, Fake Wars and Big Lies from 9/11 to Donald Trump (2019) wrote: “When the Soviet Union collapsed, the US elite believed that a period of commerce and prosperity would follow the Cold War. However, a section of the military-industrial complex imposed rearmament in 1995, followed by a very aggressive imperialist policy as from 2001. This faction which identifies itself with the “Continuity of Government” group stand ready to take over power in case of the destruction of elected institutions. It prepared the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq in advance, although they were  not launched until after 11 September 20001.” When these wars failed, it adopted the British strategy of overthrowing the secular regimes in the Greater Middle East and remodelling the region into small states administered by the Muslim Brotherhood, an organization begun and financed by the U.S. to grow into a formidable armed force in Arab countries. It took control of NATO, the European Union and the U.N. “Several millions of deaths and trillions of dollars later it was challenged in the United States by the election of Donald Trump,” who asked his security adviser General Flynn to  discover who were the members of the Continuity of Government.

The other force comprised neo-cons, following the conservative philosophy of Leo Strauss, who taught at the University of Chicago that politics and philosophy were intertwined. Strauss’s students, many Jewish, were appointed to important posts in the government. They were aligned with Israeli policy and had dual citizenship. They developed the Wolfowitz Doctrine written by one of its members, Paul Wolfowitz. The Doctrine meant to prevent a new Cold War and guarantee the place  of the ,U.S as the world’s policeman. This required a powerful political will. Political and military officials decided George W Bush, son of a former president, would be their leader and tasked the Kagan family to create a lobbying group within the American Enterprise Institute—the Project for a New America Century—to make Bush president. “They were obliged to falsify the Presidential election in Florida—with the help of Governor Jeb Bush, Jr.’s brother—in order to allow W to clamber into the White House . . . . However, the new president was not particularly obedient, which forced his backers to organize a shock for public opinion, which they compared to a ’New Pearl Harbor’, on 11 September 2001.” On that day, George Bush was no long President. Executive power was transferred from the White House in Washington to site ‘R’, the Raven Rock Mountain bunker complex in Pennsylvania near Camp David. Units of the Army and Secret Services “collected” members of Congress and their teams and flew them to a gigantic nuclear bomb shelter, the High Point Special Facility in Mount Weather, Virginia. VP Cheney was taken to the Presidential  Emergency Operations Center in an underground room under the West Wing of the White House. Fire engulfed the White House Annex. Threats of an attack by jet fighters were received. Sharpshooters deployed around the residence were armed with rocket launchers capable of repelling an assault by airborne troops. The Provisional Government, including the Continuity of Government members, kept news of the coup d’état from the public. In order for the legal government to obey the conspirators, it was necessary not only to maintain the illusion that the same team was in power but for the conspirators to be included in it. 

The force threatening the Government who knew the secret codes of the several agencies including Air Force One must have comprised moles in the agencies or received the codes reconstituted by the software Promis that created them. With these codes the traitors, who must have come from the highest levels in government, could usurp the authority of the President. They might have posted snipers within the confines of the US Air Force’s strategic bases which forced Bush to ride in armoured vehicles on the landing fields of Barksdale and Offut to avoid ambushes. The secret codes authenticated their call to the Secret Service and implies parallel negotiations, with both the Provisional Government and George W Bush as a result of which the nation was committed to war on the Middle East and to loss of citizens’ rights under the guise of protecting its people from terrorists.

Israel Prime Minister Ariel Sharon interceded in the crisis and addressed the U.S. nation. He spoke as if he represented the American state and implied that the crisis was over. At the end of the afternoon Bush Jr., who had been handed back the executive power, addressed the nation by television and the members of Congress were freed. The conditions imposed by the Provisional Government such as suspending the Bill of Rights and planning wars to destroy all the uncontrolled states in the Great Middle East as well as assassinations around the world became law but split the elites into two groups depending on whether they supported or pretended to ignore them. A few personalities who openly opposed them, like Senator Paul Wellstone, were “physically eliminated.” The Pentagon intended to redraw the borders of the Near East inherited from the European Empires, create small, independent states and dissolve states which resisted. Meyssan commented, “Although ethnic religious groups in the Middle East are sometimes concentrated in their own areas, they are more often thoroughly commingled, so that dividing the map with a jigsaw is impossible without resorting to huge massacres.” The various “colour revolutions”, manipulating of crowds and media propaganda arranged by the CIA, Britain’s MI6, NATO’s underground cells and so on are explored by Meyssan with the detail that only a close observer and sometime highly-placed government agent would know. The mass killings of innocents, the unlawful tortures of suspected Arab terrorists, practically all of whom were innocent, were supervised by Cheney and his fellow administrators to frighten the nation into believing they were fighting terrorism. Bush also terrorized the Muslim world by supporting the balkanization of borders leaving no state with more than10 million citizens, attacked Afghanistan and Iraq under false pretences, killing at least 3 million innocents and submitted at least 80,000 Muslims to torture.

By identifying the investors who bet on the destruction of the twin towers and the hi-jacking of the planes the FBI could have unearthed paths leading them to the culprits. On the Chicago Stock Exchange insiders made gains of 5 million dollars on United Airlines, 4 million dollars on American Airlines, 1.2 million dollars on Morgan Stanley Dean Winter and Co., 5.5 million on Merrill Lynch. Gains on all the exchanges totalled several hundred million dollars. Put options on Morgan Stanley, for instance, multiplied twelve-fold in the week preceding the attacks; it’s firm occupied 22 floors of the World Trade Center. Deutsche Bank and its American subsidiary Alex Brown handled most of the transactions. Alex Brown had been directed by A.B. Krongard, advisor to the Director of the CIA and since March 2001 the official number three in the hierarchy of the American intelligence agency. Despite all bank transactions being archived in two clearing organizations making it easy to trace capital movements leading to the beneficiaries of the attacks, the F.B.I. closed its investigation. The F.B.I. could have studied the message sent by the attackers to the Secret Service to identify them and should have discovered the source of messages sent to Odiga warning occupants of the attack two hours prior to the crashes into the towers; instead it made clues disappear and silenced testimony. All manipulative operations were managed by Robert Mueller III whom Bush appointed to head the FBI the week before September 11. Meyssan asks, was this pseudo-investigation meant to hide from view domestic American culpability and justify the military operations to follow? These operations, by the way, were treacherous, deceitful, and in the end counter-productive. American lives sacrificed were in the tens of thousands but fewer than the hundreds of thousands of citizens in foreign nations who had no wish to surrender their oil fields and their livelihoods for the benefit of American billionaires.

In a following essay we will point to a few of the blackmailers, a few of the moles, and a few of those covering up the event, although the seizure of the general public’s mind by unceasing propaganda makes such an exercise seem without consequence.
