The Jewish defenders are just now capitalizing the “split” in Jewry. The
real split in Jewry will come when Jews of vision begin to support the
attempts which have been made to liberate the Jews from their leaders.
This internal squabble means nothing but a squabble of leaders; but when
the Jews themselves divide, one side for twentieth century light and the
destruction of the class power of selfish leaders, then may we look up
hopefully. When the Jew recognizes the honesty of his critics and the
righteousness of what they charge, then will there be a “split,” but not
before. The division in Jewry as evidenced by the contempt of the
revolutionary party for the financial party, and as even more strongly
evidenced by the fear of the revolutionary party by the financial party,
is being brought about by the insincerity of the Western Jew’s Zionism.
The Western Jew says that the United States is the Promised Land,
profits and interest are the “milk and honey” and New York is Jerusalem;
the Jew of Russia has another view.
A knowledge of Political Zionism is worth while also as an authoritative
illustration of what the Jew does when he is in power. Heretofore there
has been Russia to illustrate this, but now there is Palestine. With
every fact against them, with every traveler and observer giving them
the lie direct, there are still Jewish spokesmen and poor befuddled
“Gentile fronts” who insist that Bolshevism is not Jewish and that
Russia is not now governed by Jews. It is just this constant denial of
facts, this failure to use their opportunity to be honest, that is going
to be the judgment of Jewish leaders. Bolshevism all over the world, not
in Russia only, but in New York, in Chicago, in New Orleans, in San
Francisco, is Jewish.
However, there is no need further to insist upon that, except
occasionally to add confirmatory illustrations of it. More to the
present point is Palestine. It will be very difficult for the most
irresponsible Jewish spokesman to deny that Palestine is Jewish. The
government is Jewish, the plan of procedure is Jewish, the methods used
are Jewish. Does anyone rise to deny that? Scarcely.
Very well, Palestine will do to illustrate the genius of the Jew when he
comes to power.
Professor Albert T. Clay, in the _Atlantic Monthly_ (will anyone declare
that this long-established and thoroughly respectable Boston publication
is “anti-Semitic”?) warns us that the information about Palestine which
we receive in America comes to us through the Jewish Telegraph Service
(which is the Associated Press of world-wide Jewry) and the Zionist
propaganda. “The latter,” he says, “with its harrowing stories of
pogroms in Europe, and its misrepresentations of the situation in the
Near East, has been able to awaken not a little sympathy for the Zionist
propaganda.”
