Known as "the father of Zionism" Herzl was a Jewish Austro-Hungarian
journalist who wrote "Der Judenstaat" (The Jewish State) in 1896 which
proposed the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine (modern
day Israel) to avoid growing prejudice toward Jews in Europe.
The pamphlet (later published as a book) gained widespread attention,
which included the support of a Christian reverend named William Hechler
(known as the first "Christian Zionist) who believed "the second coming
of Christ" depended on the Jews return to "their" homeland.
Hechler was well connected and managed to introduce Herzl to German
royalty, which although did not gain him access or promise to a future
homeland for the Jews, it did serve its purpose in gaining more support
amongst the public for the cause of Zionism, which is to say the
movement for the establishment of a Jewish homeland. Although this cause
seems noble enough on the surface, as you continue to read you will
find it is much more questionable than what we have been led to believe
to say the least.
Herzl and his affiliates were offered Uganda
by the British [1] and even Mesopotamia by the sultan [2] of the Ottoman
empire (Middle East Turkish empire) but turned them down. Of course, we
could argue these options were turned down by Herzl because Palestine
is the "Holy land" from which he and his supporters feel entitled based
on an ancient "promise" in the Bible. This argument, however popular it
may be, is simply not accurate. According to Herzls own words written in
his diary whilst seeking financial support from the powerhouse banking
family of the Rothschilds, "I can only use this... Sinai peninsula,
Egyptian Palestine. Cyprus." Herzl then asked Lord Rothschild "Are you
for it?" who in turn grinned and answered "very much." [3] From this we
quickly learn that it is not the "promised land" Herzl and his
affiliates are after but an area, presumably one of geostrategic
importance and judging by the money minded Lord Rothschilds response,
rich in natural resources.
But what could this of been about
then if it is not the "promised land"? According to Colonel Curtis Dall,
author of "Israel's Five Trillion Dollar Secret" as well former
employee of Wall streets Lehman Bros. banking firm and son in law of
former president Franklin D. Roosevelt;
"The well veiled objective of the Zionists backed by the Rothschilds financial interests was to acquire valid title to the Dead sea and its vast, inexhaustible deposits of potash and other valuable minerals, estimated by experts to be worth several thousand billion dollars."[4]
While there is no way to confirm if this really was their true
objective, it was reported back in August 27, 1927 by "the Evening
tribune" under the title "Dead sea to yield trillion in riches" that a
"technical report of the Dead sea minerals gives the following estimate of contents and values. Potash: $70, 000,000,000; Bromide: $260,000,000,000; Salt $17,000,000,000; Gypsum: $120,000,000,000; Magnesium chloride: $523,000,000,000." [5]

This assessment, according to the Evening tribune was made
by "skilled geologists" after General Edmund Allenby captured Jerusalem
in December 1917. In addition to these findings it was reported by
"Popular Science" in Septemeber of 1929 that Dr. Georges Claude
discovered $50,000,000,000 worth of gold contained in the dead sea.[6]
It is also worth mentioning that the Rothschilds had their agents on the
ground long before any of those assessments were conducted [7] and when
one considers the banking families legendary "know how" of staying 2
steps ahead of everyone, it is not so far fetched to imagine they were
well aware of this in advance. It is also interesting that Herzl at
first was met with resistance by the House of Rothschild, this as we
know now changed, perhaps due to Herzls persistence and gain in public
support, thus proving himself a useful instrument.
Irrespective
of the information presented here advocates of Zionism often claim that
Israel or "the promised land" historically belong to the Jewish people.
This belief, however popular, is once again inaccurate. According to
the Bible, the document from which these claims emanate, Abram/Abraham,
the reputed father of Issac (Israel), was born in Ur Kasdim in
Mesopotamia (modern day Iraq), not Canaan (today Israel). [8]
According to the author of Genesis (a topic of dispute amongst historians as there is compelling evidence that suggests Moses was not the actual author)
Abram was told by his god that the land of Canaan was to be given to
his descendants. What is mentioned later, however, is by "given" the
authors god actually meant taking through the use of brute force and
terrorism.
"However, in the cities of the nations the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes. Completely destroythem—the Hittites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites—as the Lord your God has commanded you."[Deuteronomy 20:16-17 ]
The writers claims, if viewed objectively and free of religious
conviction, amount to the work of a propaganda specialist justifying
imperialism. This is especially true if the author really is Moses, who
was Jewish.To believe in a god that calls for the genocide of a people
and the murder of innocent children and babies [1 Samuel 15:2-3]
sounds much more like the product of the mind of a warmonger of those
times than that of a divine Being with everlasting mercy. [Psalm 100:5] Yet
despite simple logic, morality and reason this tale has been repeatedly
used by those less informed to justify the illegal takeover of
Palestine which continues to this day. Because I pride myself, however,
in having an open mind and talking to people in "their language", I say
to those of religious conviction to consider the words written in
Revelations 2:9 which are reportedly Jesus'
"I know your afflictions and your poverty--yet you are rich! I know the slander of those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan."
Whatever you may believe, please consider what has been
presented before you from an objective and detached perspective. Imagine
there are no flags involved, skin colors, religions, etc. just ethics
and morality guided by that moral compass we all presumably have deep
within.
This, however, is not where the troubles between
Israelis and Palestinians began but instead can be traced to the shady
dealings of the British imperialists who, in pursuit of victory through
different alliances in WW1, both promised the Arabs the land of
Palestine (through "Lawrence of Arabia" who was so ashamed of these
deliberate lies became suicidal according to his own diary and the McMahon - Hussein agreement)
and the Zionists through the Balfour declaration (which is another
story in its own right, one that will have enormous ramifications on
propagated history).
The Balfour declaration addressed to Lord Rothschild. |
This is where the roots of the conflict today can be
traced. This, however, does not even begin to scratch the surface on the
terrorism that has been used on the Palestinian population to remove
them from their homeland. I leave you with a documentary made by a
former Israeli soldier that documents the history of the crimes against
the Palestinian people and will also demonstrate that the terrorism,
which is so often reported by mainstream media on the Palestinian side
is simply blowback and the result of a much more sinister root cause.
In conclusion I would like to add that the average Israeli
citizen is not necessarily a party to these crimes nor is the average
Jew, they have simply been manipulated through propaganda to believe
they are the "good guys" and the outside world don't understand (which
is partly true). Throughout history it has always been the actions of
the elite and to blame an entire people only serves to reinforce the
divides which allow us to be so easily manipulated and ruled over.
Awareness is the key, along with understanding and cooperation because
as cliche as it may sound. united we stand, divided we fall. The
average person is a moral human being and Israelis are no exception
here. But, just as it was so in South Africa during apartheid, the
elites propagate an entirely different world view and dehumanize the
opposition, as the saying goes, "He who controls the present, controls the past. He who controls the past, controls the future."
Make no mistake about it my friends mankind is on the verge of the
greatest conflict of all time and that conflict is not between races nor
religions but between the elite and the rest of us. The question is
what are you doing in the present to help change the future? If not you
then who, if not now then when?
