By almost every
metric, Jews are the most protected ethnic group on earth. At the
frontline of this protection, Jewish institutional security is heavily
subsidised by taxpayers throughout the West. In Germany, the government
provides an annual stipend of $15 million to the Central Council of Jews. In the UK, the government spends around $20 million annually on both security for Jewish institutions and “Holocaust education” designed to combat “anti-Semitic ideas.”
This is in addition to the UK pledging almost $70 million for
a new Holocaust memorial designed to achieve the same ends. Hungary has
promised $3.4 million to “fight anti-Semitism in Europe,” and Sweden
has handed over 2 million kronor for increasing security at Jewish institutions. France has invested $107 million in
“fighting anti-Semitism” since 2015. This brings us to a grand total of
over $215 million in “protecting Jews” and “fighting anti-Semitism,”
and doesn’t even take into account spending in the United States
(somewhere between $20 million and $50 million annually
for frontline security at Jewish institutions), or the spending of Jews
on their own defense (the ADL’s annual budget alone is in the region
of $58 million).
One gets the distinct and remarkable impression that, globally,
diaspora Judaism probably requires something approaching $1 billion
simply in order to feel safe.
Jews are
protected in other ways. Since mid-2018, resolutions and other legal
measures against anti-Semitism have been gathering in pace and
increasing in spread. In May 2018, South Carolina became the first US state to pass the Anti-Semitism Awareness Act,
which effectively shuts down speech against Israel on college campuses
by requiring South Carolina’s public institutions of higher education to
“take into consideration the [State Department’s] definition of
anti-Semitism for purposes of determining whether the alleged practice
was motivated by anti-Semitic intent” when “investigating, or deciding
whether there has been a violation of a college or university policy
prohibiting discriminatory practices on the basis of religion.” In
February 2019, President Macron of France announced a “crackdown on anti-Semitism”
that would involve dissolving three pro-White organizations, defining
anti-Zionism as a form of anti-Semitism, and introducing new laws
against “hate speech” targeting Jews on social media. Just a few weeks
ago, Florida passed legislation defining anti-Semitism and making it illegal under state law. Tennessee has attempted to pass an Anti-Semitism Awareness Bill, and recently passed a resolution “fighting anti-Semitism” by declaring unequivocal support for Israel. This, of course, follows hot on the heels of the House resolution “condemning anti-Semitism” in the aftermath of Ilhan Omar’s now notorious remarks on the Israel lobby.
There simply
isn’t another ethnic group elsewhere on earth that enjoys the same level
of financial and legal protections enjoyed by Jews. Of course, the
uninformed, when confronted with such a fact, might reply that this
level of support is both needed and deserved. According to the received
narrative, recent history suggests that Jews are the West’s most
vulnerable and victimised group. All of these laws, and all of this
funding, is therefore merely a response to an acute need. But recent
history has nothing to do with Jewish protection, and nor are these
measures responsive to any real immediate threat. In order to gain a
full appreciation for what exactly is going on, we need to go much
further back in time...........http://www.unz.com/article/thoughts-on-the-protected-race/
