Netanyahu brings neocons and liberal Zionists together again

Eisner and Makovsky remind me of the German elites of 1932-1934. They saw what was happening – the fascism growing in their midst, the slow erosion of Democratic principles, even the beginning of the calls for ethnic cleansing, and for separation of the Arian race. But, on the whole, they did nothing to stop the monster, and many made all kinds of excuses for it, such as “it’s really not a monster”, or “don’t worry, it’ll all go away”, or even, “it’s just politics”. Some excuses were more sensible than others, since Germany at that time was still reeling from the punitive measures post WWI. And the communist threat was cited over and over as the reason to be “on guard”, to take “tough measures”. You can hear those kind of excuses in Eisner’s voice, who sees the threat to “zionism” as looming larger than any other. And in Makovsky who sees – infers – as Netanyahoo likes to do, “a clash of civilizations”, which means, of course, endless conflict. This, just as some, once saw the threat to German identity. To the German nation. Communism played the role of the “old” looming ‘clash of civilizations”, spear-headed by those suspect “Slavs” and “Jews”. Such arguments did find an echo among the average German, who felt all kinds of misgivings and apprehensions. At the time, much as there are Arab parties inIisrael’s kneset, there was a strong Communist party officially represented in the German parliament.

At that time, the 1928-34 period, the call from the national Socialist German Worker’s Party” (nicknamed later the “Nazi” party) was for a “Democratic and German national state”, even if not always stated exactly that way. Sometimes, “Arian” was substituted for “German National” interests, slowly starting to erode the lines between who’s the “in” group and who are the “out” groups. After all, many German Jews felt and were proud to be German too, and certainly felt themselves to be German nationals”.

Here is a quotation from the jewish Virtual Library about the period preceding 1933:

“In April, 1920, Hitler advocated that the party should change its name to the National Socialist German Workers Party (NSDAP). Hitler had always been hostile to socialist ideas, especially those that involved racial or sexual equality. However, socialism was a popular political philosophy in Germany after the First World War. This was reflected in the growth in the German Social Democrat Party (SDP), the largest political party in Germany.

Hitler, therefore redefined socialism by placing the word ‘National’ before it. He claimed he was only in favour of equality for those who had “German blood.” Jews and other “aliens” would lose their rights of citizenship, and immigration of non-Germans should be brought to an end.

In February 1920, the NSDAP published its first programme which became known as the “Twenty-Five Points.” In the programme the party refused to accept the terms of the Versailles Treaty and called for the reunification of all German people. To reinforce their ideas on nationalism, equal rights were only to be given to German citizens. “Foreigners” and “aliens” would be denied these rights.”.

Just look at this platform of 1920, and tell me if it doesn’t reverberate with today’s platforms emanating from israel. Then think again pf people like Eisner, liberal zionists in good standing, just as there were many like her back in Germany, some who actively sought to arrest the rise of the nazi party, later to acquiesce and even justify.

Then scroll forward a bit. to 1935. The year of the “Nurenberg laws” (with versions already being considered in the Kneset, if not yet fully enacted) and later, to the infamous Krystalnacht.

Often we ask, why did the Germans people, especially their elites who saw what was happening, allow Hitler’s rise? was it a collective insanity that took over the people/ was it ignorance that allowed it to happen? was it bitterness over being treated so badly by the allied victors? was it fear of communism?

I think it’s perhaps wise to start asking questions about the Eisners and the makovskys of the jewish elite world in the US – and their cohorts in Israel proper. How can they not see what the plan really is for the palestinians/ could they secretly support it? do they not care? are they overtaken with a form of nationalist, identity driven, psychopathology?
