Do you want ethnocentrism? I’ll give you ethnocentrism. Here’s a quote of note that is far less notorious than it should be:

“One million Arabs are not worth a Jewish fingernail.”


Whatever else you say about him, you have to admit that Goldstein had the courage of his fascist convictions. Like the Pakistani Muslim Mumtaz Qadri, who murdered a blasphemous politician and then calmly accepted trial and execution, he was a martyr with a machine-gun. And “fascist” is the right word for Goldstein’s ideas. He had been active in the Kach party, a genuinely fascist Jewish movement founded by Rabbi Meir Kahane, whom he’d known as a boy growing up in New York. Kahane and Goldstein were both Brooklyn boys, but although they were born in America, they didn’t enter “the melting-pot” so cynically and successfully proclaimed by their fellow Zionist Israel Zangwill. Instead, like Zangwill himself, they were intensely ethnocentric Jews. As adults they emigrated to Israel and campaigned for a truly Zionist state free of all Arabs, all Muslims, and all Christians. Goldstein’s massacre was intended to advance that glorious vision.

Lots of other Jews supported his mass murder of Arabs. Goldstein’s grave, which bears the inscription “He gave his life for the people of Israel, its Torah and land,” became a shrine for Judeo-fascists. Samuel Hacohen, a teacher in Jerusalem, said that “Baruch Goldstein was the greatest Jew alive, not in one way but in every way. … There are no innocent Arabs here, and thank God that one Jewish hero reminded us that it had become almost legal to kill Jews in the street. He is the only one who could do it, the only one who was 100 percent perfect. He was not crazy. … Killing isn’t nice, but sometimes it is very necessary.”


Fans of Goldstein in high places


But all that was in 1994 and mainstream Israeli politicians didn’t agree with the eulogies. They unequivocally condemned Goldstein and his fellow Judeo-fascists. This is how the then Israeli prime minister Yitzhak Rabin (1922–95) addressed them:



You are not part of the community of Israel. … You are not part of the national democratic camp which we all belong to in this house, and many of the people despise you. You are not partners in the Zionist enterprise. You are a foreign implant. You are an errant weed. Sensible Judaism spits you out. You placed yourself outside the wall of Jewish law. … We say to this horrible man and those like him: you are a shame on Zionism and an embarrassment to Judaism. (See Baruch Goldstein at Wikipedia)


Thirty years later, Rabin has been assassinated and some powerful Israeli politicians don’t merely refuse to condemn Goldstein’s ideas: they actually support them and regard Goldstein as a martyr. The current Israeli Minister for National Security, Itamar Ben-Gvir (born 1976), had a portrait of Goldstein in his living room before he entered politics. Ben-Gvir heads a party called Otzma Yehudit, which means “Jewish Power” and is the “ideological descendant” of Meir Kahane’s Kach party. Jewish Power now wields significant influence in the Knesset. For its members and supporters, Baruch Goldstein is not a horrible man but a heroic man. The Jerusalem Post has reported that “10% of Israeli Jews think terrorist Baruch Goldstein is a “national hero’.” Like Rabbi Perrin, they think that “One million Arabs are not worth a Jewish fingernail.”

But as I noted at the beginning, that quote is far less notorious than it should be. It appears in the Wikipedia article devoted to Goldstein, but if you look at the Talk page for the article you’ll see that some Jewish editors tried hard to censor it from the article. Part of Jewish ethnocentrism involves concealing the extent and the intensity of Jewish ethnocentrism. And its nastiness. What Rabbi Perrin said in 1994 was a good example of that nastiness and so is what Stuart Seldowitz said in 2023. Seldowitz, who was director of the highly important National Security Council under Barack Obama, has been recorded harassing an Egyptian-Arab street-vendor in New York. Fingernails also appear in Seldowitz’s ethnocentric nastiness. He smirks and sneers as he tells the vendor:


The Mukhbarat [secret police] in Egypt will get your parents. Does your father like his fingernails? They’ll take them out one by one. (See video at Twitter)

He then asks the vendor “Do you rape your daughter like Muhammad?” and tells him that some people “use the Quran as a toilet.” Seldowitz has a highly unpleasant face to go with his highly unpleasant mind. And minds like his — Jewish minds — have been in charge of American foreign policy for decades. The vendor repeatedly asks him to go, but he replies: “Why should I go? I’m an American. It’s a free country. Not like Egypt.” But his claim to be American is contradicted by something else he says: “If we killed 4,000 Palestinian children, it wasn’t enough.” Who is “we”? It’s Israel that is bombing the Gaza Strip and killing Palestinian children, not America.


Destroying America


And in spirit, at least, Seldowitz contradicts his own claim that “America is a free country.” He takes a photograph of the vendor and says that “my friends in immigration” will deport the vendor back to Egypt, where he’ll be arrested by the fingernail-removing Mukhbarat. Even if Seldowitz doesn’t have the power to do that, it’s obviously what he’d like to be able to do. Indeed, Seldowitz would obviously like to be able to arrest and torture his enemies in America. Jews like him were what Kevin McDonald has called “Stalin’s Willing Executioners” in the communist Soviet Union. They were Stalin’s willing torturers too. Seldowitz himself is undoubtedly leftist and fully in support of open borders for Muslims and other non-Whites. As he said after being criticized for harassing the vendor: “I don’t think I’m an Islamophobic guy. I’ve spoken up for equal treatment of Muslims on numerous occasions with numerous different people.”


But if he’s spoken up for Muslims, it’s because he thinks it’s good for Jews to have large numbers of Muslims in the West. As the late great Larry Auster wrote way back in 2004:



Just the other week I was telling a secular, leftist Jew of my acquaintance, a man in his late sixties, about my idea that the only way to make ourselves safe from the specter of domestic Moslem terrorism is to deport all jihad-supporting Moslems from this country. He replied with emotion that if America deported Moslem fundamentalists, it would immediately start doing the same thing to Jews as well. “It’s frightening, it’s scary,” he said heatedly, as if the Jews were already on the verge of being rounded up. In the eyes of this normally phlegmatic and easy-going man, America is just a shout away from the mass persecution, detention, and even physical expulsion of Jews. Given the wildly overwrought suspicions that some Jews harbor about the American Christian majority who are in fact the Jews’ best friends in the world, it is not surprising that these Jews look at mass Third-World and Moslem immigration, not as a danger to themselves, but as the ultimate guarantor of their own safety, hoping that in a racially diversified, de-Christianized America, the waning majority culture will lack the power, even if it still has the desire, to persecute Jews. (Why Jews Welcome Muslims, Front Page Magazine, 22nd June, 2004)


But Auster missed another Jewish motive for opening the borders of Western nations to Muslims. The Muslim terrorism that inevitably followed has justified ever harsher laws against free speech and an ever more intrusive surveillance state. When Jewish propagandists claim that “Diversity is our strength,” they’re using the phrase in an Orwellian sense. The chaos and crime caused by Third-World migrants weakens White gentiles and strengthens Jewish power. Indeed, the war between Israel and Hamas has granted British Whites the richly comic sight of an ethnocentric Jew demanding arrests for thought-crime while using an image of George Orwell to proclaim his own virtue:



Orwell-fans at Harry’s Place demand that non-White Muslims be arrested for thought-crime


Harry’s Place is a supposedly Orwell-friendly anti-jihadist website run by a former Jewish Stalinist who used the nom de guerre of Harry Steele (“steel” is the English translation of Stalin). Mr Steele abandoned his Stalinism when he noticed the increasing threat posed by Islamism to Jewish interests. But his loudly proclaimed love of Orwell is humbug, because he’s obviously kept his belief in authoritarianism and a police state from his Stalinist days. It just that he now wants a police state run on behalf of Jews rather than the communist party.


The right kind of fascism


The Jews Harry Steele and Stuart Seldowitz are both no doubt implacably opposed to any ban on Muslim immigration into the West, let alone to deportation of Muslims currently residing here. They would call that kind of thing “fascism,” but what they would really mean is that it’s the wrong kind of fascism. Rather than keeping Muslims out, they want Muslims let in to cause trouble and justify a police-state in which Muslims are arrested and jailed if they act against Jewish interests. Remember that Muslim immigration vastly increased in America after the terrorist atrocities of 9/11, which were blamed on Muslims but may have taken place with the full knowledge and even direct participation of Israel.


9/11 was used to justify not just mass surveillance of Western populations, but also the detention and torture of large numbers of Muslims, some of whom were entirely innocent. However, when Muslims act against White interests, there is no stern action from the state. Jewish control of Western politics means not only that innocent Muslims are tortured but also that guilty Muslims remain free. But only if they’re guilty of crimes against Whites. When he was Labour MP for the Yorkshire constituency of Rotherham, the repulsive Denis MacShane worked tirelessly for Jews in far-off London while ignoring what Muslim rape-gangs were doing to White working-class women and girls in his own constituency.


Business as Jewsual


After he was jailed for fraud, the Jewish Chronicle saluted him as “one of the community’s greatest champions” and said that “we should mourn Denis MacShane’s fall from grace.” MacShane was supposedly in politics to champion the White working-class as part of the Labour party, but the Labour party long ago abandoned its founding principles and became an enemy of the White working-class. When Jeremy Corbyn was unexpectedly elected party-leader, he didn’t reverse that betrayal. But he did commit a horrible crime. He refused to make Jewish interests the first and overwhelming priority of the party. That’s why he was endlessly vilified by the mass media and eventually replaced as leader by the slippery lawyer Sir Keir Starmer, who is married to a Jew, has “family in Israel,” and runs Labour as it should be run: as a vehicle for Jewish interests.


Like the Conservative leader Rishi Sunak, Starmer is firmly behind Israel in its war with Hamas. After the aberration of Corbynism, British politics is back to business as Jewsual: working tirelessly for Jews and just as tirelessly against Whites. That’s why the so-called Conservative party entered power promising to cut immigration and has instead allowed immigration to increase massively. At the same time, it provides unlimited support to an Israeli government containing politicians who want Israel to be “free from the river to the sea.” Free of Arabs, Muslims and Christians, that is. Is that fascism? Yes, it is, but it’s the right kind of fascism: the Judeo-fascism for which Baruch Goldstein slaughtered Arabs and became a Jewish saint. Always remember: “One million Arabs are not worth a Jewish fingernail.” Many Jews have always thought the same about Whites. That’s why Jewish control of Western politics has been such a disaster.
