Coincidence?
What do the following people in the news have in common:
1. Victor Khodrokovsky, found guilty in Russia and sentenced to 9 years in
prison for tax avoidance.
2. Mark Felt, former Asst-Dir of the FBI in the USA, revealed as "Deep
throat" in the Watergate affair.
3. Sir Bob Geldoff, sometime singer in the UK and organizer of the 8-AID
concert to benefit Africa.
Of course, all of them are Jewish. What does it mean, I really don't know,
but it raises some thoughts. Is it coincidental that they are all Jewish, I
would say "no", there is a certain logic to it.
1. Khodrokovsky was the richest man in Russia, because like most of the
so-called "oligarchs," he was prepared to take the risk of buying up at
bargain prices the devalued industries of the USSR and converting them into
money making concerns, in his case the oil industry. Is it a coincidence
the man Pres. Putin of Russia chose to put on trial is Jewish? Definitely
not! That is not only my opinion, but Natan Sharansky is quoted in the J'sam
Post this morning that the trial of a Jew was carefully planned by Putin.
Anti-Semitism is endemic in Russia, so that this trial, the outcome of which
was pre-ordained, was just as much a "show trial" as those put on by
Stalin, although not as vicious. The most notorious of these in central
Europe during the 1950's was that of Rudolf Slansky, the Jewish head of the
Czech Communist party. The fact that he was a loyal communist was deliberate.
If he could be arrested anyone could be. This was how Stalin gained the
support of the people, through intimidation and anti-Semitism. Seven of
the 11 people executed with Slansky were Jewish, it was no coincidence.
In effect the suffering of the Jewish people in Europe continued from
1933-1989. Most Russians are jealous of the Jewish oligarchs, who they
believe "stole" their industries, so Putin makes himself popular by making
one of them suffer public humiliation.
2. Mark Felt gave the information to Woodward and Bernstein of the
Washington Post that enabled them to document the Watergate affair that
led to the downfall of Pres. Nixon. This was one of the most
historic events in modern American history. Is it a coincidence that a Jew
was behind the attempt to keep the US a democratic and free country? I
don't think so. It was an intensely patriotic thing to do. If anything the
Jews of America are very aware that the freedom of the US is what protects
them from the kind of attacks that occur in Russia and other countries.
3. Sir Bob practically cries out of emotion when he sees the suffering of
the children in Africa. I presume he is sincere. His is the true liberal
spirit, a Jewish value that even the most irreligious Jews imbibe with their
mother's milk. It is the Jewish basis of Christianity, when stripped of all
the icon worship and ersatz divinity. Can one conceive of any other "rocker"
organizing such an event? I think not.
In these three cases in three different countries Jews are still playing a
leading role. Although as Zionists we are happy to be gathered here into
our own little Jewish country, we are gratified that the Jewish role in the
diaspora remains active and engaged.
PS. This may be my last message for a while. We are going away for a month
to visit our son and family in California. I can still be reached via this
e-mail address.
