The Souring of Arab and Western Relations
Israel has existed for much of its history since 1948 by maintaining the fiction that it is the only reliable state in the Middle East that is Western-orientated amidst a sea of states hostile to “Western values.” This is highly misleading. Israel was for the first years of its existence largely a center of Marxist agitation in the Middle East, and even before the declaration of Israel in 1948, Zionist settlers in Palestine were conveyers of the Marxist creed that has never found fertile ground in any form among the Arabs.[1]
Israel is neither pro-Western nor anti-Western; it is pro-Israel, no more and no less. Israel has always played a duplicitous game diplomatically. For example, it has for decades maintained a largely covert relationship with Red China to the point of contravening US restrictions on weapons transfers.[2] As for the souring of relations between the West and the Arabs, this is of a particularly treacherous nature, and is a festering sore that the West has the responsibility to heal.
The origins of this perfidy are in World War I at a time when the Arabs were under Ottoman rule. Zionist hopes for gaining Palestine seemed at the time to rest with Turkey and Germany; while Arab independence rested with vanquishing those powers, out of which independent Arab states might emerge. In return for Arab support, the Allies led them to believe that independent states would be granted.
In 1915, Sheriff Hussein of Mecca, speaking for the Arab world, approached Sir Henry McMahon, British Commissioner in Cairo, offering support for the war against the Turks if Britain would pledge support for Arab independence. Correspondence between the two during 1915 and early 1916 culminated in McMahon’s guarantee of British support for independence within the requested boundaries.[3]
However, in the “Sykes-Picot Agreement” of 1916 between Britain and France, “parts” of Palestine would be under international administration upon agreement among the Allies and with the Arabs represented by the Sheriff of Mecca.[4] This Anglo-French agreement already had the seeds of duplicity as it gave the two powers control over Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Transjordan, reneging on the commitment that had already been given by the British to Sheriff Hussein, and without his knowledge.
Lord Curzon remarked that the boundary lines drawn up by the Sykes-Picot agreement indicated “gross ignorance” and he assumed that it was never believed the agreement would be implemented. Prime Minister Lloyd George considered the Sykes-Picot agreement foolish and dishonourable, but it was nonetheless implemented after the Allied victory.[5]
In 1916 the war was going badly for the Allies, and the only hope was to persuade the USA to enter. Sykes approached the War Cabinet with the suggestion that if Palestine was offered as a Jewish homeland, then Jewish sympathy could be mobilized for the Allied cause, and the USA might be induced to join the conflict. US Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis used his influence to induce President Wilson to adopt an interventionist policy.[6]
In return for Zionist support the British reneged on their promises to the Arabs and secretly promised to support a Jewish homeland in Palestine; a guarantee which became known as the “Balfour Declaration.” The machinations were confirmed by Lloyd George to the Palestine Royal Commission in 1937, the report of which states that George told the commission that if the Allies supported a Jewish homeland in Palestine the Zionist leaders had promised to “rally Jewish sentiment and support throughout the world to the allied cause. They kept their word.”[7]
The Arabs, fighting in the field for the Allies, were unaware of the new arrangements that had been reached via the Sykes-Picot agreement and the Balfour Declaration. When the Bolsheviks came to power in Russia they revealed these secret agreements, but the Arabs continued to fight, due to Allied assurances that neither Sykes-Picot nor the “Balfour Declaration” would undermine the promises that had been made to them.
Among the numerous reiterations of Allied support for the Arab cause, “The Anglo-French Declaration” of 9 November 1918 most plainly stated that France and Britain would support setting up “indigenous governments and administrations in Syria (which included Palestine) and Mesopotamia (Iraq).[8] With such assurances, the Arab fight against the Turks was of crucial importance to the Allies. These treacherous maneuvers laid the foundations for the festering Middle East sore that has been aggravated ever since by the slavish attitude the USA and its allies have displayed towards Israel.
Target
This background of Western duplicity towards the Arabs, along with the Zionist wire-pulling, is directly relevant to the present “clash of civilizations,” the “war on terrorism,” and the Breivik atrocity as a manifestation of these. Leading up to the Breivik massacre of Labor Party youth, the neo-cons had been agitating against the Labor Government that was indicating it would adopt a more strident policy towards Israel’s treatment of the Palestinians. In particular, the youth wing of the party was lobbying for a Norwegian economic boycott of Israel.
Joseph Klein, posting on Horowitz’s Front Page Mag two days before Breivik’s rampage, described the Norwegian Government as “Quislings” and called them the “the latest example of Norwegian collaboration with the enemies of the Jews.” Is the language any less inflammatory than Breivik’s European Declaration of Independence that the news media and their pundits are scrutinising for signs of “right-wing extremism”? Klein stated: “Norwegian Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere declared during a press conference this week, alongside Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, that “Norway believes it is perfectly legitimate for the Palestinian president to turn to the United Nations” to seek recognition of an independent Palestinian state.”[9]
An agreement was signed giving Palestine’s representative in Norway full ambassadorial status. Stoere also appealed for financial help for Palestinians. Other transgressions by the Norwegians, according to Klein, include a Labour Member of Parliament stating that Jews exaggerate the Holocaust; “socialist leader” Kristin Halvorsen having participated in an anti-Israel demonstration while serving as minister of finance; the Norwegian Government’s divesting of funds from two Israeli companies in 2010; the claim that “anti-Semitism is ‘alive and well’ among the Norwegian political, cultural and academic elite; pro-Hitler sentiments expressed by Muslim students in Norway,” and more.
Klein stated that part of the reason for this rise in “anti-Semitism” is because of the toleration of multiculturalism by the Norwegian Establishment. He ends by writing: “Norway is repeating its Quisling treachery of the Nazi era, this time in league with a growing radical Muslim population. And once again the Jews are the victims.”[10]
A Hebrew website, Rotter, states that two days before the massacre the leader of the Norwegian Labour Party Youth, Eskil Pederson, said in an interview that it was time to end dialogue with Israel and undertake tough measures, including an economic boycott by Norway. The youth at the Labor camp aimed to lobby their party for a boycott. The site describes the Labor youth camp:
48 hours before the shooting attack on the island, the youth met the Norwegian Foreign Minister. Some called for a boycott of Israel.
On Wednesday, the second day of the ruling party youth conference on the island, the youth holiday camp discussed with the Norwegian Foreign Minister Jonas Gahar Store, and ordered him to support Palestine. About 48 hours later, many of them were killed, Anders Bering Breivik launched a shooting crazy.
Labor Youth Movement demanded recognition of a Palestinian state, and foreign minister have said that the Palestinians get their own state. “The occupation must end, the wall should be demolished and it has to happen now,” said Ghar Store to the audience. Some of the youngsters in the camp waving a placard with the word “boycott Israel.” Demanded an economic embargo on Israel. Summer camp ended in the massacre.
Leader, Eskil Pedersen, said that young people require imposition of an economic embargo on Israel. “Our policy on the Middle East is to be more active and demand recognition of Palestine. There is also the peace process back on track,” said Pedersen. The Foreign Minister agreed with him, but said that a boycott is not the right approach: “This will make dialogue become a monologue.” [11]
The media pundits have waxed indignant about the “extremists” who have posted on “far Right” websites in support of Breivik’s actions, Dr Matthew Goodwin, writing for the Telegraph:
Make no mistake: Breivik has already become a heroic figure for sections of the ultra far right, much in the same way Timothy McVeigh became a hero for sections of the militia movement in the United States. In Britain, his anti-Muslim, anti-immigrant and anti-establishment ideas are easily found in a far-right scene that has become fragmented and chaotic.[12]
Yet it does not seem to have been pointed out that Breivik’s action has generated enthusiasm in Israel. Some of the posts on the Israeli Hebrew website Rotter, state:
- Because I waited with this response until after it became clear that there was indeed a conference which explicitly called for the Boycott of Israel. I am very happy and pleased about the massacre that took place in the camp of the enemies of Israel.
- Hitler Youth members killed in the bombing of Germany were also innocent. Let us all cry about the terrible evil bombardment carried out by the Allies. . . . We have a bunch of haters of Israel meeting in a country that hates Israel in a conference that endorses the boycott. So it’s not okay, not nice, really a tragedy for families, and we condemn the act itself, but to cry about it? Come on. We Jews are not Christians. In the Jewish religion there is no obligation to love or mourn for the enemy.
- It’s stupidity and malice not want the death of those who call to boycott Israel.
- I have no sympathy for those who want the destruction of Israel.
- Not looking for excuses but it’s not our mourning. Like not mourning at the time the 50 thousand dead in the bombing of Dresden
- May all our enemies be paid with such speed.
- At least now they have more important things to worry about than Israel.
- Maybe we can arrange a badge of honor on behalf of the International Headquarters for Saving People and the Land.[13]
It seems that Breivik’s actions made a lot of “sense” from a pro-Zionist perspective, and the motives have nothing to do with ideologies of the “far Right,” and much to do with supporting Israel.
Conclusion
The “clash of civilizations” now taking place in the name of the “war on terrorism” is a second “Cold War” foisted upon the world in order to achieve American global hegemony. With the eclipse of the “Cold War” following the implosion of the Soviet bloc, the USA required another world bogeyman to justify its global adventures. The “right” was dragooned into supporting US globalization during the Cold War under the banner of “fighting communism,” “defending democracy,” etc.
With the conclusion of the anti-Soviet Cold War, these same ideologues undertook a new Cold War, this time against Islam, using the same type of sloganeering. Islamophobia is the new anti-Sovietism, and is serving the same interests. Trotskyites and other Marxists disaffected by the rise of Stalin created the ideological foundations for the Cold War. The so-called “neo-conservative” movement has its origins in Trotskyist anti-Stalinism.[14] Anti-Soviet rhetoric has been altered to apply to the new “menace of racial Islam.”
The slogan now is “Islamofascism,” coined by neo-con ideologue Stephen Schwarz, director of the Center for Islamic Pluralism. Schwartz’s background, like most of the neo-con founders, is as a Trotskyite, and he reiterated to the neo-con magazine National Review that he would defend the legacy of Trotsky to his “last breath.”[15] How does this legacy connect with “revolutionary conservative” or the “right”? It is a creation of plutocracy, Zionism, post-Trotskyites, and the CIA.
A better option for a revived Western Civilization, based on genuine “Western values,” and for the world, could revolve upon what the neo-cons and their Zionist allies have condemned as “Eurabia.” The common enemies are Zionism, US cultural subversion, international finance, and concomitant forms of imperialism. Relations between the West and the Arab states were evolving past the very old antagonisms until Zionist machinations entered the scene during World War I. It is not too late to correct the distorted relationships that have occurred between the West and the Arabs, and then an amicable solution can be found to the problems of Muslim immigration. As for Breivik, he is a product of the forces that are inimical to the traditional West.

Concerning opinions voiced in the Rotter-Forum: Can you read Hebrew, or did you use Google Translate?
What Ward Kendall said. Just because the Zionists are exploiting the situation to further their own interests, does not mean that there isn’t a genuine “clash of civilizations”.
By the way…
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baruch_Goldstein#Veneration_of_Goldstein_and_celebration_of_the_massacre
There is a “clash of civlizations” between Islam and the West because of the betrayal of the Arabs by France and Britain at the behest of Zionism duirng World War I, the continuing servile relationship between the USA et al with Israel, and because alienated Muslim youth are being used as fodder by plutocracy to undermine Europe. How many times has the West been agititated into fighting wars that are not in their interests while the wire-pullers behind the scenes get away with it time and again?
Muslim immigration is a symptom, not a cause. By focusing on symptoms the causes are obscured.
Many were once saying that “there can be no amicable problem to the German problem”, that the Germans are a threat to the British Empire, etc etc. After that it was the “Soviet threat”, now its Cold War II. The wire pullers require perpetual conflict; their version of “permanent revolution.”
Kerry Bolton in blockquote:
After most of a century spent chasing the shadows on the wall, someone finally realizes that Someone using Something is actually, intentionally, producing those shadows. By chasing symptoms, and never addressing the causes, we waste our limited resources serving our Enemies.
The “permanent revolution” is their religion, as all division is amplified into class warfare, whether it is called “multiculturalism,” “feminism,” or Insert WORD Here “Wordism.” By controlling the pictures we see, and the words we read and hear, we are controlled in a manner that Huxley admitted astonished him in how advanced it was; this, BEFORE the wide-spread adoption of color television.
“Wordism” is an important part of the Bob Whitaker Philosophy. “WORD-ism” was first discussed by Eric Hoffer, and it described the process by which a WORD becomes the foundation of an ideology – “ism.” In turn, the ideology is trying to become a religion, an unquestioned belief in the ideology over even to the detriment of the Race.
Wordism is at the foundation of all class warfare, the outworking of “Marxism” in practice.
To paraphrase, our enemies are the Jews; our Enemy is Judaism. THAT is where the Deep War is taking place. Indeed, they have effectively “nudged” us and “suggested” to us that the genocide of the White Race is desirable, and too many of us have agreed. By hiding the genocide within a matrix of policy choices that emphatically includes race displacement and replacement, we have made a mistake that, I can assure you, Islam will never make.

Good exposure of this Judeophile, Zionist shabbatz goy mass murderer. Talked to some Scandanavian tourists the other day, and they said – based on their own MSM – that Breivik was a “neo-Nazi”. When I informed them of his actual motives and targeting, they were quite astonished.
What Ward Kendall said. It is truly astonishing that even here some people cannot fathom the incredible threat that Islam poses for the West. If the Jew is Sauron, Muslim immigrants are the invading orcs.
There seems to be an influential school of thought in some sectors of WNism that takes the view anti-Zionists are somehow our allies, or our potential allies. It is major error founded on flawed analysis. Anti-Zionists are actually almost always useless in the struggle for White survival, or hostile to White survival. Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism as we understand anti-Semitism: as we understand it as a justified and needed reponse to Jewry’s pathological hatred of European.
civilization.
Anti-Zionism, in contrast, means something very different. It means opposing the policies of the government of Israel. It does not mean opposing Jewry’s anti-White genocide agenda. In fact, outside of the WNist community, just about all anti-Zionists support White genocide either directly or indirectly.
The young Norwegians are examples of anti-Zionists who enthusiastically supported White genocidal policies. Their anti-Zionism was 1) founded on their fanatical support for multiculturalism and 2) a desire to help the Palestinians out of a warped sense of altruism that often defines pathologically self-hating Whites, fervent altruism for an out group, none for their own in group.
The Muslims are also examples of anti-Zionists who support White genocide. They oppose Jews for totally different reasons than we do, and clearly have no problem flooding European lands and working to take them over and exploiting the multicult zeitgeist for their own benefit.
So how in the hell is Muslim anti-Zionism helpful? When they say they want death for those who oppose Islam, they mean our kin in Europe.
The bottom line this: WNists need to steer a course between the Scylla of pro-Zionism and Charybdis of anti-Zionism.
Wilders / Breivik style civic nationalism, pro-Zionism is not more harmful to White interests than anti-Zionism wedded to multiculturalism and out group altruism.
I don’t know that there is all that much(if any) genuine tenderness for, or solidarity with the primarily leftwing Anti-Zionist types you accurately describe. I think most WN’s realize that the reasons AZ’s take issue with Israel has nothing whatever to do with White survival – indeed, most AZ’s associate Zionism with a type of “White” supremacy.
I think many just celebrate the fact that at least SOMEONE is speaking out against Israel’s malfeasance, and indirectly, pointing out the naked hypocrisy of western Jews in the process.
Unless I am wildly mistaken, I think most WN’s understand full-well that none of this makes Muslims our friends or lefty Anti-Zionists either.
‘I don’t know that there is all that much(if any) genuine tenderness for, or solidarity with the primarily leftwing Anti-Zionist types you accurately describe.’
Well I know that I personally have been greatly moved by the sacrifice made by anti-Zionist White Female Rachel Corrie.
Most anti-Zionist types have their heart in the right place, but their head in the wrong place. Whereas White Nationalists have both head in heart in the right place! (Pro-White AND anti-semitic!)
‘Unless I am wildly mistaken, I think most WN’s understand full-well that none of this makes Muslims our friends or lefty Anti-Zionists either.’
No there are indeed hard-core White Nationalists who look up to the political activities of Francis Parker Yockey ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Parker_Yockey#Later_life_and_works ) as a sort of Role Model for the struggle ahead. I myself am employed in the heart of the enemy… a University Campus with many Jews on the faculty, but am doing what I can to help the left-wing anti-zionists around there.
Lew in blockquote:
Great analysis. Anti-Zionism simply means being opposed to one Shadow of Judaism, the EXACT opposite of Christianity. Meanwhile, Judaism continues full speed ahead with their plans for us, while we seem to adopt their terms, definitions, and frameworks without any consideration of where they come from, and what they mean for us.
Greg Johnson had the best critique of most self-identified “White Nationalists,” and their “practice,” based on their “understanding, of “White Nationalism.” They are simply all but dead, having been thoroughly coopted by the formulations of their Enemies. Their acts are usually little more than the Adolescent acting out his oppositional defiance. Thus, his effectiveness is that of a Child in an Adult body. He is allowed to go to a certain point, and then Mommy cuts off the power to the X-Box, forcing him to come upstairs for dinner, or Daddy has to bail him out. Once.
I’ll address this critically important issue at greater length, but, Lew has that EXACTLY right. After the anti-Zionists, most of whom are useful idiots for the Jews, are done with the Jews, we are next. However, in practice, the Jews have them going after us first, or didn’t you notice that the anti-Zionists and the anti-Fascists seem to have strongly overlapping membership lists?
What’s In YOUR Future? Focus Northwest!
I would make two inter-related points after observing the rather colourful language (sic) employed to discuss the topic raised by Dr. Bolton..
First: As some readers note, liberal and marxist anti Zionists are not concerned with the survival of European nations and culture. Nonetheless, whatever be their reasons for criticising Zionism, they are still generally opponents with whom the Zionists must reckon. Further, they understand particular facts about Zionism that the mass media would otherwise conceal. However, they usually react negatively towards nationalists who may criticse the Zionists apparatus.
Second: As some readers note, anti Islamists may also not be concerned wih the survival of the European race upon whom the culture rests. They may pursue any number of directions up to and including prposing that we fight Zionism’s wars and pursue the neo-con project. However, they have recognised part of a general immigration problem and they are prepared to act upon it.
I think that the point is missed that the task of those who would challenge New World Order politics is to put these fractions into the real frame.
I seem to recall old Chairman Mao talking about how to handle contradictions amongst the people.
It would seem that the real struggle is to explain to the public and the two groups here exactly what threat Zionism poses to European Civilisation and then explain the issue of Islamic migration (in the context of the overall immigration danger) in the same vein. The response is to explain each issue arising from these generalized questions and formulate political responses. Big task.
There are two relevant questions. If the Left and liberal ‘anti Zionists’ are not allies per se, how can their positions be used to allow some conversions or much neutralization? If the anti Islamists are not friends, how can many be led on into an anti immigration response with a realization that neither Israel nor the Zionist lobby offers them political options?
Basically, the camp described by some here as WN or under any other label or any other ‘pro Western’ group etc – all have to get smarter.
