21. How does the "Holocaust" story benefit the Jews today?

Ernst Zündel

replies to Q/A # 21:

In one plain phrase - by brainwash cycle after brainwash cycle!

For a
start, we will let a former diplomat, Ian MacDonald, now
in retirement in Canada, summarize a few thoughts for Nizkor that will shed
light on how colossally useful the Holocaust has been for the politically
organized, largely Zionist-dominated Jewry planet-wide.

These thoughts
were summarized in two Letters to the Editor at the Globe & Mail. These
letters were, of course, not published, since the thoughts expressed run counter
to what special interests will have us believe.

They were written five
years apart and with regard to Canada, but they apply to many other countries,
including Germany and the United States:

In July of 1990 Mr. MacDonald
wrote:

"For the past 45 years the 'Holocaust' and other alleged Nazi war crimes
have been the subject of countless news reports, editorials, articles, radio
programs, TV docudramas, movies, books and what have you.

So intense
has been the media campaign that the alleged extermination of European Jewry
and suffering of the (paradoxically plentiful) 'survivors' have become, ex
post facto, the perceived central issue of World War II, overshadowing all
other aspects of the conflict, including even victory itself.

The
claim that Six Million Jews had perished in Nazi Gas Ovens surfaced only after
the war had ended but soon gained acceptance as historical fact. Though
unproven and demographically implausible, the figure was cited often as the
'most documented' statistic of the Second World War, if not of all time.
Canadian school children all learned that Six Million Jews had died-but were
told little about Canadian casualties or about Canada's role in the conflict.

Now comes the really startling news: it wasn't Six
Million after all, or anything near it. Prof. Yehuda Bauer, the leading
Israeli historian, as well as researchers from the Auschwitz Museum now say
that Jewish deaths at Auschwitz were closer to 1 million than to 4 million,
with Rabbi Bauer cautioning that exaggeration played into the hands of the
Revisionists and could place the whole Holocaust story in jeopardy.

As
fate would have it, the Russians recently made public the original Auschwitz
camp records which show the number of deaths during the war years to be
74,000, not all of whom were Jews.

So, how does the Globe & Mail
(Ed: Canada's newspaper of record on July 24, 1990) react to this iconoclastic
recantation of the (journalistically) most important single feature of World
War II and presumably happy reincarnation of 3 million Jews? With exactly 3
column inches buried discreetly on page 8, that's how.

The mind
boggles at the implications!"

In 1990, MacDonald only hinted at the implications. But in May of 1995
Macdonald wrote this:

". . . to the insightful Gentile observer it is outrageous to claim that
WW II was 'a good war for Canada' or anyone else, with the notable exception
of Stalinism and Zionism. It is equally outrageous to suggest that war with
Germany was necessary to avoid a 'world-wide nightmare.'

It was war
with Germany that precipitated the slaughter and subsequent multiplicity of
postwar problems that now plague humanity and are becoming increasingly
intractable. It is self-evident (at least to historians who have not sold
their souls to the politically correct Establishment) that WW II was an
abomination contrived by special interest groups to weaken the Christian
nations and to set the stage for the foundation of a Jewish state in
Palestine.

A secondary objective was the aggrandizement of the Soviet
Union to create a balance of power which could be exploited by Zionists on
both sides of the Iron Curtain.

As it strives to keep pace with, if
not profit from, the increasing Holocaustization of Canadian society, the
Globe & Mail editorial policy is becoming virtually indistinguishable from
that of the Canadian Jewish News.

The 'Books' page, April 29, 1995,
exemplifies the trend. Two full columns are devoted to the musings of the
self-conscious Judeophiliac Stan Persky, and the remainder of the page is
either totally kosher (Jewish books reviewed by Jewish reviewer) or almost so
(pro-Jewish reviewer quoting Jewish or pro-Jewish books and sources).

A few days later there appeared on the front page a tribute by
opportunist politicians to the Holocaust, although the event was hardly 'news'
except perhaps as an expose of the venality of the participants. Inside is a
large picture of Dachau, and an article about Hitler as the 'very incarnation
of evil.'

This editorial bias reflects a distorted Jewish propaganda
version of WW II and would have the unwary Gentile reader believe that 'in the
whole, (WW II) was a good war for Canada' and 'If ever a war had to be won, it
was the Second World War'. (Morton and Granatstein).

The reviewer
(ethnicity unknown) then gratuitously opines that 'defeat would have meant a
world-wide nightmare', then reveals even more clearly his true colors by
dwelling on the alleged 'shameful (Canadian) treatment of Jewish refugees from
Nazism' whom an 'escorting officer called the scum of Europe', condemning the
author of a pejorative observation on the grounds that at least three of the
thousands of survivors of Canadian internment were demonstrably not in the
scum category.

The paradoxically smegmatic Granastein review of Martin
Gilbert's 'Day the War Ended' heightens the deception by resurrecting the
Allied propaganda canard of 'Germany's dreams of global conquest' and the
'horrors and carnage', 'death factory. . . genocide' etc. while ignoring
Allied war crimes altogether.

The Globe & Mail drops not the
slightest hint, far from issuing a disclaimer, that the opinions expressed are
simply a regurgitation of the Israeli 'party line' and are thus not bona fide
historical analyses.

Surely even the Editor of the Globe & Mail,
however commercially compelling the inclination to conform, must acknowledge
(to himself at least) that WW II was not a worthy cause, nor served any
plausible interests of Western civilization. If war were inevitable, and
perhaps it was for reasons other than those postulated by Granastein &
Co., the only logical alliance, from the standpoint of Western Gentile
interests, would have been with Christian Germany against atheistic,
tyrannical Communism.

Instead, thanks to the machinations and money
power of Germany's vengeful enemies and the treachery of venal political
leaders, we were hoodwinked into declaring war on Germany. We thus enabled
Zionism to prosper and ensured the survival of the cruel Stalin dictatorship
ironically facilitating the conquest of Poland, the preservation of whose
independence we had used as a pretext for declaring War on Germany!"

Indeed the aftermath of World War II was that we managed to allow Zionism to
prosper handsomely. By trotting out the bogeyman of the "Holocaust" and the
guilt associated with it, over and over and over, more than 100 billion dollars
and Deutsch Marks have been manipulated out of the German government over the
past 50 years. That is a lot of "benefit"!

Perversely, even the
Americans, who basically went to war for Jewish interests and ought to be
rewarded, are being browbeaten into loans, grants, military aid and special
treatment for Israel and Jewish organizations as though they had been on the
side of the losers. Additionally, the tax deductions granted to private
individuals and corporations for financial support under whatever guise stagger
the imagination. They amount to more billions of dollars. According to a
Washington Report article of October 1996, p. 44, the annual US aid to Israel is
double the entire United Nations budget, a staggering $15 million PER DAY, seven
days a week, 365 days a year!

The benefits of "Holocaust" victimhood
benefit every Jewish person alive on earth from 1945 til today in one way or
another - be it in direct payments from Germany, deductions and tax breaks to
others, or "moral superiority" - permitting silence in the face of massive stock
market swindles, insider trading, real estate con games etc., stretching all the
way to safe havens for French, German, Russian and American Jewish gangsters
like Flatto-Sharons, Manmings, Meyer Landsky's, Masewells et. al, who flee to
Israel where they can launder their money and live like kings.

Macdonald
finishes by saying:

"It is a measure of the virtually iron-clad control over the media by a
small, wealthy, influential, devious, self-serving, duplicitous, racist, alien
pressure group that the obvious truths about the origins and nature of WW II
are still considered beyond discussion. Unfortunately for the co-opted media
figures and their sinister paymasters the edifice of deception is about to
crumble. The threatened emergence of truth has prompted increasingly intensive
media subversion and, as predicted by David
Irving, increasingly desperate measures to discredit and muzzle the
sources of enlightenment. The measures are doomed to failure because the media
control is no longer sufficient. It has been broken by the Internet.

It is the beginning of the end of the Zionist subversion, and Zionist
hegemony."
