“The Best Prime Minister Britain Never Had”

Forty years ago on April 20th, 1968, conservative parliamentarian Enoch Powell delivered his famous ‘Rivers of Blood’ speech warning against the dispossession and balkanization that massive immigration into Britain would bring. Unfortunately, like Dr. Duke in America, Enoch’s foresights have proven to be all too accurate. Below is a controlled media presentation on Enoch Powell’s speech, though biased it is still interesting to watch as it features lots of historic footage from one of England’s greatest politicians who had the guts to actually stand up for the interests of the native British. Enoch comments: “We must be mad, literally mad, as a nation to be permitting the annual inflow of some 50,000 dependants.” – “It is a total transformation to which there is no parallel in English history.” – “Keep Britain, British – like it should be!” — admin

Immigration Breaks Backs of Taxpaying U.S. Citizens

“U.S. taxpayers are giving more than $9,000 a year in cash or benefits to each immigrant, a third of whom are in the country illegally”

By Phyllis Schlafly

Are you having a hard time paying your bills, making your mortgage payments or putting your kids through college? You need to know how much of your hard-earned income the government is skimming off and diverting into handouts to immigrants and illegal immigrants.

You can read the depressing details in the new 70-page document called “The Economic and Fiscal Impact of Immigration” by Edwin S. Rubenstein. A Manhattan Institute adjunct fellow with a mile-long scholarly resume, he has been doing financial analysis ever since he directed the studies of government waste for the Grace Commission of 1984.

The bottom line, which you need to know for your own bottom line, is that U.S. taxpayers are giving more than $9,000 a year in cash or benefits to each immigrant, a third of whom are in the country illegally. That’s $36,000 for each immigrant household of four.

Because the U.S. has 37 million immigrants, legal and illegal, the national cost was more than $346 billion last year, which was twice our fiscal deficit. The cost of immigrants is so high because, as Rubenstein writes, “Immigrants are poorer, pay less tax and are more likely to receive public benefits than natives.”

Big Brother hasn’t told you this bad news, perhaps because the government doesn’t want you to know why your paychecks are shortchanged. Even the huge amnesty bill that was defeated last year didn’t contain one word about its budgetary consequences.

The financial burden immigrants impose on education starts with the 3.8 million K-12 students enrolled in more expensive classes for the non-English speaking. When we add up the costs of hiring specialized teachers, training regular teachers, student identification and assessment, and administration costs, the total amounts to an estimated $1,030 per pupil, or $3.9 billion.

Of the 48.4 million public-school children, pre-K through 12th grade, 9.2 million or 19 percent are immigrants or the children of immigrants. In the next few years, immigration will account for virtually all the increase in public-school spending.

Look at the $1.5 billion cost of incarcerating 267,000 criminal aliens in federal prisons. That’s not the worst of it; prison capacity is limited, so 80,000 to 100,000 other criminal aliens have been prematurely released to prowl our streets.

Barack Hussein Obama’s ties with unrepentant communist, terrorists!

Two of Obama’s key supporters from the time of his first election in Chicago up to his current Presidential campagin are unrepentant, Marxist terrorists. They are William Ayers and his wife, Bernadine Dohrn, prominent members of the communist, terrorist Weather Underground organization of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Ayers and his wife have admitted setting bombs, and three of their communist comrades were blown up making bombs meant for the murder a gathering of American Army officers during the time of Viet Nam War.

Bill and Bernadine Dohrn are unrepentant for their terrorist bombings. They turned themselves over to authorities in 1980 after they learned through their lawyers their charges would be dropped because of “improper FBI surveillance.” While the Weather Underground claimed 25 bombings, these characters were never prosecuted. Even today they remain proud of their terrrorist attacks. Ayers said this to The New York Times in 2001:

           “I don’t regret setting bombs; I feel we didn’t do enough,”

Obama remains good friends of this couple who are proud of their terrorist acts. The Obama campaign has officially described their relationship to Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn as “friendly.” In fact, these two admitted bombers helped launch Obama’s political career. Barack Obama and the former State Senator, Alice Palmer,  who was stepping down from her Senate seat, actually came together to Ayer’s home for a frundraiser.

“I can remember being one of a small group of people who came to Bill Ayers’ house to learn that Alice Palmer was stepping down from the senate and running for Congress,” said Dr. Quentin Young, a prominent Chicago physician and advocate for single-payer health care, of the informal gathering at the home of Ayers and his wife, Dohrn. “[Palmer] identified [Obama] as her successor.” (“Obama once visited ’60s radicals” By BEN SMITH in Politico 2/22/08)

In the time since, Bill and Bernadine Ayers’ have participated on boards together with Obama, at radical conferences together and the Ayers’ have been very active in representing the Obama Presidential campaign in fundraising.

The mainstream press has known these facts for sometime, but has kept it from the knowledge of the American people. In fact, the kid gloves treatment of Ayers and Dohrn and the entire Weatherman Underground terrorist organization is appalling. Wikipedia, describes Ayers as a “distinguished professor.” (more…)

Child Molesting Scandal in Judaism

Jewish media will never give their tribe the same criticism as the Catholic Church

By Ian Mosley – EURO

How, exactly, has it come about that certain Jews are immune from the law?

A recent news article reports that former rabbi Edward Schlaeger was found with two compact discs loaded with child pornography. Child porn laws are one of the few remaining morality laws that are enforced in this country. Can you imagine any Gentile getting found with two CDs of kiddie porn and not going to prison? Does anyone seriously think that if this character were a Christian minister or a Catholic priest (especially the latter) he wouldn’t have been crucified in the media on prime time?

And whatever happened to that rabbi who was successfully entrapped by “To Catch A Predator” on television, coming into a house expecting to have sex with a child? That case seems to have dropped right out off the radar.

A Google search of “rabbi child molester” finds no shortage of articles. One website reports “Convicted sex offender Yechiel Brauner is back on the streets again after his latest arrest. Brauner who is currently on probation for fondling a 15 year-old boy in a hearst on the way to his grandmother’s levaya is now again in trouble for allgedly falsifying documents, conspiring to rob a dying old woman of her home and for failing to report that he was a sex offender when he applied for his notary public. Brauner was released on $85,000 bail…”

Another article reports “The most ‘far-flung and exotic fugitive investigation ever conducted by the U.S. Marshals Service’ ended early Sunday with convicted child molester Alan Horowitz in custody on U.S. soil. Alan Horowitz was convicted in 1991 on 34 counts of child molestation. Officers from the U.S. Marshals service arrested the 60-year-old at Newark Liberty International Airport after a 15-hour flight from New Delhi, India. The ordained Orthodox rabbi and former child psychologist was arrested on May 22 at a seaside resort… He is being held at a correctional facility in New Jersey and will appear before an extradition judge on July 16th before being taken to New York to face a parole violation charge there. He also faces a federal charge of unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.” (more…)

Judaizing The US Church

By Harmony Grant

The Jewish Forward’s recent “most read” article worries that evangelicals might be stealing from the Jews. But it is Christians who should really be worried.

The article describes a Passover banquet in Alabama where 1,300 Christians gathered for unleavened bread and bitter herbs and donated more than $10,000 to the Jewish Federation. A local rabbi complains, “It is a total taking over and arrogation to themselves of the entire concept of the Seder. It’s totally Christological.”

Evangelical Christians’ support of Israel is essential to the Jewish state. The powerful Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations even publicly supports Rev. John Hagee—Israel-firster extraordinaire; they recently wrote the NY Times to defend him as Israel’s “true friend”. Binyamin Netanyahu—Israel’s ninth prime minister, an extremist who resigned as finance minister in 2005 to protest withdrawal from Gaza—said Christian Zionists are Israel’s best friends in the world! In a recent poll, a whopping 82 percent of evangelicals agreed that Christians are morally obligated to support the Jewish state. In his New Testament letters, the apostle Paul repelled attempts by Jews to impose on the early church the rites and legalisms of Old Testament law. He furiously rebuked the apostle Peter for bending to Judaizing influences; he said Peter “stood condemned.” (Gal. 2:11) As evangelicals today fall even deeper into this unbiblical love affair, they are increasingly eager to participate in Jewish rites, own Jewish trinkets, and learn about Jewish culture.

Who is really damaged by this Christian appropriation? Jews are not becoming more Christian. Christians are becoming more Jewish! Jews are not donating money for Christian evangelism (or even allowing it in their country)! It is Christians who finance a religion dedicated to opposing their own. And their gift of millions of dollars to Israel is flatly contrary to Scripture. Christians are instructed to give their tithes and offerings to the “household of faith,” i.e., many Christian charities and relief organizations that help further the gospel message. (Gal. 6:10) Judaism and the state of Israel are emphatically not of the household of faith. Israel ’s “anti-missionary law” mandates a five-year prison sentence for any evangelical who gives to an Israeli a “material inducement” (Bible tract or even a cup of coffee) that might help persuade him to become a Christian!

Bible Is Hate, Says U.S. Government

By Rev. Ted Pike
Ted Pike Comments

In its recent report to Congress, the U.S. State Department “Office of Global Anti-Semitism” makes a startling policy statement. It says the New Testament record that the Jews had Christ crucified is “classical anti-Semitism” — a historic form of hate. ¹
 
In its 2005 report to Congress, the State Department included as an “anti-Semitic incident” the case of a Polish priest who said Jews killed Christ. Today, three years later, the State Department could not be clearer. 

Are you one of tens of millions of Christians who agree with Mel Gibson’s The Passion of the Christ that evil Jewish leaders incited a Jewish mob and persuaded Pilate to have Christ crucified? The U.S. government now considers you “anti-Semitic.” You are part of a worldwide scourge the U.S. government, Canada , Australia , and 55 European nations are uniting to suppress. ²
 
In the many countries now ruled by hate laws, it is already a federal offense to repeat the claim of New Testament “hate literature” that the Jews had Christ crucified. ³ The State Department’s equation of Biblical Christianity with “hate” is an ominous indication. The Jewish Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith – architect of hate laws worldwide (and primary ideological and statistics-gathering force behind the Office of Global Anti-Semitism) — is moving rapidly to create bias against Christians as haters, particularly of Jews and homosexuals.

Zionist watchdog Philip Weiss provides us with an interesting case study. Here we have Sheldon Adelson (left), a Las Vegas casino tycoon who openly supports Jewish racial causes to the tune of $200,000,000.00 dollars annually, including the funding of an exclusive Jewish High School here in the USA, yet Adelson receives no public outcry of racism or calls for boycotting his businesses. At the same time we have European-American billionaires who are too intimidated to donate one red penny to organizations such as EURO which will respectfully stand up to represent their European-American heritage and interests. One must ask what kind of powerful conditioning is at work here. — admin

‘Washington Post’ Whitewashes an Extremist

By Philip Weiss

When I was a kid, we didn’t drink Welch’s Grape Juice, didn’t eat Welch’s grape jelly. Any Welch product. That’s because Robert Welch was one of the founders of the John Birch Society, which my family saw as anti-semitic. Probably was for all I know. But that’s why we couldn’t have Welch’s. And I approve. I wonder how my mom knew that. Maybe from the liberal press, such as it was.

Well today George Will writes a whole column about Sheldon Adelson in the Washington Post, third richest man in America, and it is entirely about his business activities. Not a word about his political activity: the biggest backer of birthright, the turn-them-into-Zionists-and-get-them-to-marry-Jews free trips to Israel; a big backer of the Israeli right; and most important, a giant backer of Freedom’s Watch, the pro-Iraq-war group started after meetings at the Republican Jewish Coalition.

One of the great failures of American journalism has been its failure to out extremists, including Jews who are undermining the peace process, which I thought was U.S. policy. Adelson is said by Haaretz to be close to Netanyahu. I believe his thinktank in Israel is headed by Sharansky. Shouldn’t the Washington Post be reporting on this? Forty years ago my family got the news. Today there is none. (…Full Article)

It is not only about Palestine

Israel Shamir about a new paper by Joachim Martillo

Preface Commentary by David Duke — There is much important work going on in Europe exposing the vagaries of Jewish supremacism. Teaching and lecturing in Europe has given me a unique opportunity to deepen my understanding of the Jewish question and to share these insights with my fellow Americans and the World. The following is a fine paper by Israel Shamir. Shamir was a diligent Talmudic student in Israel and served in the Israeli Army (I will not call it a “Defense Force”). Along the way he realized that Israel was a uniquely hyper-racist state, and that the Talmud which is the basis of Jewish law, is viciously racist against non-Jews. He came to the shocking realization that Israel is the most extreme ethnic and religious supremacist State on Earth with an underlying Talmudic creed asserting the right of Jews to rule over not only the Palestinians but indeed all non-Jews on the earth.

Hard core Jewish supremacists such as Habad Lubavitch support Halachic Law which states that Jews are of the actual physical form of God, that they are in fact living Gods while Gentiles are little more than animals possessing satanic souls. Habad is not some extremist group off somewhere in the Negev Desert, it is a multimillion dollar international Jewish organization that has gatherings and teach-ins in the White House, gives U.S. cabinet prayers, and its late leader, the Great Rebbe, who proclaimed this hateful doctrine against all Christians and all Gentiles, has been honored by the President and the U.S. Congress! The Jewish extremist domination of media and government should become pretty obvious to you when you learn that media and political leaders formally praise and honor a Jewish extremist who says that Jews have a right and moral obligation to rule over all Gentiles on Earth! (Read more about Habad by doing a search for Habad Lubavitch on www.davidduke.com.)

Israel Shamir’s keen sense of justice simply could not let him remain silent about the foundations and criminal actions of Israel and the threat that Jewish extremists posed to Gentiles not just in Palestine but all over the world. He also came to a realization that these pernicious Jewish doctines ultimately bring disaster to the Jewish people themselves.  He became a Christian and since his epiphany, he has written a number of books, both beautiful in their prose, and hard-hitting in their truth. I met Shamir at an anti-Zionist conference at my university in Kiev, and since that time I have read his books and although we don’t agree on all subjects of government, ethnicity and economics, I gained a lot of respect for him and believe that there is much to be learned from his writing. In the last year, France began a prosecution of him for “anti-Semitism.” Ironically, anti-Semitism is defined today by the Jewish influenced press and political establishment as honest criticism of Jewish supremacism and extremism, Jewish anti-Gentilism and the massive murder, torture and ethnic cleansing of the Israeli supremacist State. I think you will find his review of this important paper by Joachim Martillo very valuable. –  David Duke

Joachim Martillo wrote an important paper called Judonia Rising: The Israel Lobby and American Society, purporting to explain, “What the Israel Lobby Really Is”. He spoke with Stephen Walt, of Walt and Mearsheimer fame, he followed the discussions of Philip Weiss, he corresponded with Noam Chomsky and Joseph Massad, he had read Israel Shamir’s Pardes and James Petras, he knows MacDonald. An American scholar Martlllo has some Polish background, and he reads Yiddish and Polish, as well as some Hebrew. In his view, understanding the Israel Lobby can be based only on a thorough hardnosed (“non-exceptionalist”) analysis of Eastern European Jewish history. This is a heretical view, very close to ours.

It is heretical, because the very far away border of permitted antizionist discourse still remains short of discussion: whether Jews did similar things before Zionism, or do we have a temporary aberration connected with the state of Israel. The moment one integrates modern Jewish behaviour with the pre-modern Jewish behaviour, the moment one notices continuity of pre-Zionist and Zionist Jewish politics, the moment one leaves the safe ground of condemning occupation, – one crosses into totally forbidden “antisemite” territory. Martillo dared and ventured there, and came with strong and startling conclusions: the real issue is not Palestine. Unless they are neutralized, Israel lobbying groups, Israel advocates, Zionists, Neoconservatives, and Friedmanites will steal America and effectively abolish the Constitution in all but name to create a society of servitude for all Americans except for those belonging to the hyper-wealthy transnational Zionist political elite.

Campaign Against Me by the SPLC

By Dr. Kevin MacDonald

[Commentary by David Duke -- In this latest rebuttal to the SPLC attack on him, Dr. Kevin MacDonald responds with the incontrovertible facts of the preeminent Jewish role in changing American and European immigration laws. If MacDonald is simply documenting what other Jewish scholars have hinted at, why should he be persecuted. Is the truth anti-Semitic? Should MacDonald be persecuted for simply telling it? This rebuttal has more than enough documentation to prove that all Prof. MacDonald has done is to document the historical and contemporary role of Jews in the transformation of America to a non-White nation. He also proves by their own writings that their role in the destruction of the American White majority is connected with their own supremacist agenda. --David Duke]

The Southern Poverty Law Center has been conducting a campaign against me since September, 2006. As part of this campaign, academic departments at CSULB are being pressured into releasing negative comments on my work. The History Department has complied with this pressure and has released a statement on my work: CSULB History Department Statement of April 4, 2008

 
Reply to CSULB History Department Statement:
Jewish Involvement in Influencing U.S. Immigration Policy

The History Department has released a statement condemning my work. In particular, the Department states: “He argues that the 1965 U.S. Immigration Law was “the ultimate triumph of the Jewish policy on immigration” without ever examining the legislative history of the bill or the actual Congressional debates over it.”

If one looks at the text and notes to this chapter, it is quite obvious that I read the Congressional debates over U.S. immigration law beginning in the 1920’s right up to 1965. In view of this, I demand that the History Department issue a retraction. I present a list of footnotes and text references referring to these debates below. (more…)

Obama’s True Colors Come Out!

David Duke’s open letter to Obama after his anti-White speech

At a heavily-Jewish,  elitist fundraiser in San Francisco, Barack Hussein Obama spoke his true sentiments about White people in a press-barred, closed-door meeting. In speaking about White middle class Americans, he stated:

“So it’s not surprising then that they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations,” Mr. Obama said. (Quoted by the New York Times, April 12, 2008)

Obama’s phrase, “People who aren’t like them” is an obvious reference to American White people and their opposition to immigrants because they are “people not like them.”. Here is David Duke’s official statement in reaction to Barack Obama’s remarks:

Mr. Obama:

I believe White Americans are increasingly bitter for good reasons. They are indeed frustrated. But again, they have good reasons for that frustration.

Better-qualified White students, employees, working men and women face intensive racial discrimination that you and the other major candidates deceptively call “affirmative action.”

Many White people can no longer use the public school system that their own taxes pay for because “people who aren’t like them” have made their schools awash in violence, educational mediocrity, drugs, sexual degeneracy and gangsta rap.

Millions of White people who have paid exorbitant taxes all their lives can’t afford medical insurance and decent medical care in no small part because “people who aren’t like them,” such as illegal immigrants and able-bodied, welfare parasites, people who have paid no taxes at all, have overloaded the the system.

Millions of White people see that illegal immigrants, “people who aren’t like them,” are illegally crossing the American border and they see clearly that politicians like you, Clinton and McCain won’t even enforce our laws.

They are bitter because unelected economic czars such as Greenspan and Bernanke, Wolfowitz and a whole coterie of Jewish “people who aren’t like them” have ripped them off and have let so-called “free trade” destroy the American economy.

They are bitter because other Jewish Neocon “people who are not like them,”  have led us into a catastrophic war for Israel in Iraq, a war that will cost the American people trillions of dollars and that has killed or ruined tens of thousands of American lives (While Jewish dead or wounded are spectacularly underrepresented in those terrible casualties).

The Courts, the Constitution and the Clown in the Castle

By Viva Malta

When I first heard the news of Norman Lowell’s guilty verdict, together with a prison term of two years, suspended for four years, I was shocked and totally speechless. How can this be? Malta has freedom of speech guaranteed by its constitution, the accusation is simply a scare tactic. We appear to be living in those times again. We seem to be reliving the 1960’s.

Norman Lowell was charged on several counts of ‘inciting racial hatred’, and also with a charge that wouldn’t be out of place in the Soviet Union, or any tin pot dictatorship for that matter, of ‘insulting the president’. Norman’s comment that President Fenech Adami was ‘a good gardener’ but a lousy president’ seems to have insulted a man who takes it upon himself to insult the people given the opportunity. This is an ‘honourable’ president who has pardoned drug traffickers whilst in office.

Now back to the more serious issue of freedom of expression. This should in all modern societies that don’t stone women to death for blasphemy be sacred. Indeed, Malta’s founding fathers placed a provision in our constitution that guarantees that we be allowed to express our opinions in a free manner. I quote the said article below:

English version: http://www.legal-malta.com/law/constitution-4.htm

41. (1) Except with his own consent or by way of parental discipline, no person shall be hindered in the enjoyment of his freedom of expression, including freedom to hold opinions without interference, freedom to receive ideas and information without interference, freedom to communicate ideas and information without interference (whether the communication be to the public generally or to any person or class of persons) and freedom from interference with his correspondence.

In view of the above, how on earth can Norman Lowell or anyone in Malta for that matter be censored? Sure, there are all those of the opinion that ‘inciting hatred is different’ but what about all those opinion writers in the newspapers? Doesn’t Daphne Caruana Galizia of Independent fame spew hatred in almost every article she writes? Doesn’t Andrew Borg Cardona of the Times do likewise? Do they have the right to express their thoughts as they please? If they say something libelous, then the offended person knows to pursue them through legal channels. What about our MLP and PN politicians? One of the MLP gang said PN voters had faulty DNA. Isn’t that hatred? A chap from the other camp said that Labourites are like animals – you cut off their tails and they remain the same. (more…)

Political prisoner Ernst Zundel is currently working on his SIXTH year behind bars simply for expressing opinions that the Zionists don’t like.

‘US returned us to hijack hell’

By Lauren Thys, Beeld

Delmas – “We want the Americans to know to what kind of a country they sent us back to.”

Wentzel Herbst said: “I’ve had to go through another hijacking and, this time, my children were with me.”

Herbst had been in the car with his brother-in-law, Jimmy Watson, when Watson was killed during a hijacking just more than a week ago.

Wentzel, his wife, Carol, and their children, Deiran, six, and Tegan, three – who were born in the United States – were visiting the Watsons in Delmas.

Three years ago, the family was refused asylum in the US, after being there for six years and had to return to South Africa.

They had applied for asylum in the US because of the crime situation in South Africa.

Just before they left for the US, Wentzel had been shot in the back during a hijacking.

Wentzel and the children went to buy food for the family who had gathered in Delmas after they had heard that Watson’s daughter, Sharon Knoetze, had died in a car accident seven hours earlier.

Carol said: “My children are traumatised. They got such a fright when they saw the violence of the hijacking and when their father yanked them out of the car so quickly.

Wentzel said: “When we said we feared for our safety in South Africa, the Americans thought we were joking and said that South Africa was a perfectly safe country to go back to.” (more…)

In Memory of Charlton Heston:

Fighting the Cultural War in America
by Charlton Heston

A few years ago I was astounded to read these courageous remarks by Charlton Heston. I am thankful to hear a man with such high esteem say essentially the same things for which I have been reviled by the liberal media. His words should be reproduced and put into the hands of every American. — David Duke

Actor Charlton Heston, born October 4, 1924, was one of some performing artists who received the Kennedy Center honors on December 6, 1997. Mr. Heston remained in Washington D.C. and addressed the 20th Anniversary of the Free Congress Foundation and the 4th Birthday of the NET TV network. The following are excerpts from his Insightful remarks. Mr. Heston and Mrs. Heston celebrated 50 years of marriage in 1994.

A cultural war is raging across our land-storming our values, assaulting our freedoms, killing our self-confidence in who we are and what we believe. (Mr. Heston then asked those present who owned a gun to raise their hand.)

I wonder how many of you own guns but chose not to raise your hand? How many of you considered revealing your conviction about a constitutional right, but then though better of it?

If so, you are a victim of the culture war being waged against traditional American freedom of beliefs and ideas. You have been assaulted and robbed of the courage of your convictions. Your pride in who you are and what you believe in has been ridiculed, ransacked, and plundered! It may be a war without a bullet or bloodshed, but with just as much liberty lost: You and your country are less free!

Because you choose to own guns- affirmed by no less than the Bill of Rights- you embrace a view at odds with the cultural war lords. If that is the outcome of cultural war, and you are the victims, I can only ask the obvious question. What will become of the right itself? Or other rights not deemed acceptable by the thought police? What other truth in your heart will you disavow with your hand? (more…)
