A Jewish Defector Warns America
> Introductory Note:
>
> Benjamin H. Freedman was one of the most intriguing and amazing
> individuals
> of the 20th century. Born in 1890, he was a successful Jewish businessman
> of
> New York City at one time principal owner of the Woodbury Soap Company. He
> broke with organized Jewry after the Judeo-Communist victory of 1945, and
> spent the remainder of his life and the great preponderance of his
> considerable fortune, at least 2.5 million dollars, exposing the Jewish
> tyranny which has enveloped the United States.
>
> Mr. Freedman knew what he was talking about because he had been an insider
> at the highest levels of Jewish organizations and Jewish machinations to
> gain power over our nation. Mr. Freedman was personally acquainted with
> Bernard Baruch, Samuel Untermyer, Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt,
> Joseph
> Kennedy, John F. Kennedy, and many more movers and shakers of our times.
>
> This speech was given before a patriotic audience in 1961 at the Willard
> Hotel, Washington, D.C., on behalf of Conde McGinley's patriotic newspaper
> of that time, Common Sense. Though in some minor ways this wide-ranging
> and
> extemporaneous speech has become dated, Mr. Freedman's essential message
> to
> us -- his warning to the West -- is more urgent than ever before. --

>
> Benjamin Freedman Speaks:
> Here in the United States, the Zionists and their co-religionists have
> complete control of our government. For many reasons, too many and too
> complex to go into here at this time, the Zionists and their
> co-religionists
> rule these United States as though they were the absolute monarchs of this
> country. Now you may say that is a very broad statement, but let me show
> you
> what happened while we were all asleep.
>
> What happened? World War I broke out in the summer of 1914. There are few
> people here my age who remember that. Now that war was waged on one side
> by
> Great Britain, France, and Russia; and on the other side by Germany,
> Austria-Hungary, and Turkey.
>
> Within two years Germany had won that war: not only won it nominally, but
> won it actually. The German submarines, which were a surprise to the
> world,
> had swept all the convoys from the Atlantic Ocean. Great Britain stood
> there
> without ammunition for her soldiers, with one week's food supply -- and
> after that, starvation. At that time, the French army had mutinied. They
> had
> lost 600,000 of the flower of French youth in the defense of Verdun on the
> Somme. The Russian army was defecting, they were picking up their toys and
> going home, they didn't want to play war anymore, they didn't like the
> Czar.
> And the Italian army had collapsed.
>
> Not a shot had been fired on German soil. Not one enemy soldier had
> crossed
> the border into Germany. And yet, Germany was offering England peace
> terms.
> They offered England a negotiated peace on what the lawyers call a status
> quo ante basis. That means: "Let's call the war off, and let everything be
> as it was before the war started." England, in the summer of 1916 was
> considering that -- seriously. They had no choice. It was either accepting
> this negotiated peace that Germany was magnanimously offering them, or
> going
> on with the war and being totally defeated.
>
> While that was going on, the Zionists in Germany, who represented the
> Zionists from Eastern Europe, went to the British War Cabinet and -- I am
> going to be brief because it's a long story, but I have all the documents
> to
> prove any statement that I make -- they said: "Look here. You can yet win
> this war. You don't have to give up. You don't have to accept the
> negotiated
> peace offered to you now by Germany. You can win this war if the United
> States will come in as your ally." The United States was not in the war at
> that time. We were fresh; we were young; we were rich; we were powerful.
> They told England: "We will guarantee to bring the United States into the
> war as your ally, to fight with you on your side, if you will promise us
> Palestine after you win the war." In other words, they made this deal: "We
> will get the United States into this war as your ally. The price you must
> pay is Palestine after you have won the war and defeated Germany,
> Austria-Hungary, and Turkey." Now England had as much right to promise
> Palestine to anybody, as the United States would have to promise Japan to
> Ireland for any reason whatsoever. It's absolutely absurd that Great
> Britain, that never had any connection or any interest or any right in
> what
> is known as Palestine should offer it as coin of the realm to pay the
> Zionists for bringing the United States into the war. However, they did
> make
> that promise, in October of 1916. And shortly after that -- I don't know
> how
> many here remember it -- the United States, which was almost totally
> pro-German, entered the war as Britain's ally.
>
> I say that the United States was almost totally pro-German because the
> newspapers here were controlled by Jews, the bankers were Jews, all the
> media of mass communications in this country were controlled by Jews; and
> they, the Jews, were pro-German. They were pro-German because many of them
> had come from Germany, and also they wanted to see Germany lick the Czar.
> The Jews didn't like the Czar, and they didn't want Russia to win this
> war.
> These German-Jew bankers, like Kuhn Loeb and the other big banking firms
> in
> the United States refused to finance France or England to the extent of
> one
> dollar. They stood aside and they said: "As long as France and England are
> tied up with Russia, not one cent!" But they poured money into Germany,
> they
> fought beside Germany against Russia, trying to lick the Czarist regime.
>
> Now those same Jews, when they saw the possibility of getting Palestine,
> went to England and they made this deal. At that time, everything changed,
> like a traffic light that changes from red to green. Where the newspapers
> had been all pro-German, where they'd been telling the people of the
> difficulties that Germany was having fighting Great Britain commercially
> and
> in other respects, all of a sudden the Germans were no good. They were
> villains. They were Huns. They were shooting Red Cross nurses. They were
> cutting off babies' hands. They were no good. Shortly after that, Mr.
> Wilson
> declared war on Germany.
>
> The Zionists in London had sent cables to the United States, to Justice
> Brandeis, saying "Go to work on President Wilson. We're getting from
> England
> what we want. Now you go to work on President Wilson and get the United
> States into the war." That's how the United States got into the war. We
> had
> no more interest in it; we had no more right to be in it than we have to
> be
> on the moon tonight instead of in this room. There was absolutely no
> reason
> for World War I to be our war. We were railroaded into -- if I can be
> vulgar, we were suckered into -- that war merely so that the Zionists of
> the
> world could obtain Palestine. That is something that the people of the
> United States have never been told. They never knew why we went into World
> War I.
>
> After we got into the war, the Zionists went to Great Britain and they
> said:
> "Well, we performed our part of the agreement. Let's have something in
> writing that shows that you are going to keep your bargain and give us
> Palestine after you win the war." They didn't know whether the war would
> last another year or another ten years. So they started to work out a
> receipt. The receipt took the form of a letter, which was worded in very
> cryptic language so that the world at large wouldn't know what it was all
> about. And that was called the Balfour Declaration.
>
> The Balfour Declaration was merely Great Britain's promise to pay the
> Zionists what they had agreed upon as a consideration for getting the
> United
> States into the war. So this great Balfour Declaration, that you hear so
> much about, is just as phony as a three dollar bill. I don't think I could
> make it more emphatic than that.
>
> That is where all the trouble started. The United States got in the war.
> The
> United States crushed Germany. You know what happened. When the war ended,
> and the Germans went to Paris for the Paris Peace Conference in 1919 there
> were 117 Jews there, as a delegation representing the Jews, headed by
> Bernard Baruch. I was there: I ought to know.
>
> Now what happened? The Jews at that peace conference, when they were
> cutting
> up Germany and parceling out Europe to all these nations who claimed a
> right
> to a certain part of European territory, said, "How about Palestine for
> us?"
> And they produced, for the first time to the knowledge of the Germans,
> this
> Balfour Declaration. So the Germans, for the first time realized, "Oh, so
> that was the game! That's why the United States came into the war." The
> Germans for the first time realized that they were defeated, they suffered
> the terrific reparations that were slapped onto them, because the Zionists
> wanted Palestine and were determined to get it at any cost.
>
> That brings us to another very interesting point. When the Germans
> realized
> this, they naturally resented it. Up to that time, the Jews had never been
> better off in any country in the world than they had been in Germany. You
> had Mr. Rathenau there, who was maybe 100 times as important in industry
> and
> finance as is Bernard Baruch in this country. You had Mr. Balin, who owned
> the two big steamship lines, the North German Lloyd's and the
> Hamburg-American Lines. You had Mr. Bleichroder, who was the banker for
> the
> Hohenzollern family. You had the Warburgs in Hamburg, who were the big
> merchant bankers -- the biggest in the world. The Jews were doing very
> well
> in Germany. No question about that. The Germans felt: "Well, that was
> quite
> a sellout."
>
> It was a sellout that might be compared to this hypothetical situation:
> Suppose the United States was at war with the Soviet Union. And we were
> winning. And we told the Soviet Union: "Well, let's quit. We offer you
> peace
> terms. Let's forget the whole thing." And all of a sudden Red China came
> into the war as an ally of the Soviet Union. And throwing them into the
> war
> brought about our defeat. A crushing defeat, with reparations the likes of
> which man's imagination cannot encompass. Imagine, then, after that
> defeat,
> if we found out that it was the Chinese in this country, our Chinese
> citizens, who all the time we had thought were loyal citizens working with
> us, were selling us out to the Soviet Union and that it was through them
> that Red China was brought into the war against us. How would we feel,
> then,
> in the United States against Chinese? I don't think that one of them would
> dare show his face on any street. There wouldn't be enough convenient
> lampposts to take care of them. Imagine how we would feel.
>
> Well, that's how the Germans felt towards these Jews. They'd been so nice
> to
> them: from 1905 on, when the first Communist revolution in Russia failed,
> and the Jews had to scramble out of Russia, they all went to Germany. And
> Germany gave them refuge. And they were treated very nicely. And here they
> had sold Germany down the river for no reason at all other than the fact
> that they wanted Palestine as a so-called "Jewish commonwealth."
>
> Now Nahum Sokolow, and all the great leaders and great names that you read
> about in connection with Zionism today, in 1919, 1920, 1921, 1922, and
> 1923
> wrote in all their papers -- and the press was filled with their
> statements -- that the feeling against the Jews in Germany is due to the
> fact that they realized that this great defeat was brought about by Jewish
> intercession in bringing the United States into the war. The Jews
> themselves
> admitted that. It wasn't that the Germans in 1919 discovered that a glass
> of
> Jewish blood tasted better than Coca-Cola or Muenschner Beer. There was no

> Nobody
> cared in Germany any more than they do in the United States. Now this
> feeling that developed later in Germany was due to one thing: the Germans
> held the Jews responsible for their crushing defeat.
>
> And World War I had been started against Germany for no reason for which
> Germany was responsible. They were guilty of nothing. Only of being
> successful. They built up a big navy. They built up world trade. You must

>
> There was a conspiracy between England, France, and Russia to slap down

> When Germany realized that the Jews were responsible for her defeat, they

> Not

> of political prisoners, who wrote back that he found them in very fine

> the
> Jews happened to comprise about 98 per cent of the Communists in Europe at

> leaders, and Masons, and others who had international affiliations.
>
> Some background is in order: In 1918-1919 the Communists took over Bavaria
> for a few days. Rosa Luxemburg and Karl Liebknecht and a group of other

> took over the government for three days. In fact, when the Kaiser ended
> the

> them the same way that, in this country, the Prohibitionists fought anyone
> who was interested in liquor. They didn't fight one another with pistols.
> Well, that's the way they were fighting the Jews in Germany. And at that
> time, mind you, there were 80 to 90 million Germans, and there were only
> 460,000 Jews. About one half of one per cent of the population of Germany
> were Jews. And yet they controlled all the press, and they controlled most

>
> The Jews tried to keep a lid on this fact. They didn't want the world to

> The Germans took appropriate action against the Jews. They, shall I say,

>
> After a while, the Jews of the world called a meeting in Amsterdam. Jews

>
> In 1933, when Germany refused to surrender to the world conference of Jews

> the
> head of the American delegation and the president of the whole conference,
> came to the United States and went from the steamer to the studios of the

>
> At a store belonging to the R. H. Macy chain, which was controlled by a

>
> Now up to that time, not one hair on the head of any Jew had been hurt in
> Germany. There was no suffering, there was no starvation, there was no
> murder, there was nothing.
>
> Naturally, the Germans said, "Who are these people to declare a boycott

>
> For this country now to be on the verge of a Third World War, from which
