"The International Jew" Study Hour - Episode 67
Oct. 3, 3013
Hadding Scott and Carolyn Yeager read and comment on Chapter 62, "How Jews Gained American Liquor Control."
Jews usually constitute the liquor dealers in countries where they live in numbers. In the United States in 1916, 60% of the distilling and wholesale trade was in the hands of Jews, and they ruined the distilling of fine spirits. We learn in this chapter:
- Jews were exempt from Prohibition for “religious reasons” to the amount of 10 gallons per individual per year;
- A concoction of drugs and spirits, colored and flavored, was fraudulently labeled “whiskey” and served in bars and bottles;
- What used to take 4 to 9 years of “aging in wood” was now being created in two to three hours and “blended” for taste and smell – in effect stealing the good name of “whiskey” for a synthetic poison;
- Cincinnati OH, Pittsburgh PA, and Peoria IL were major centers where Jewish distilleries operated;
- The “conspiracy” was the plan to sweep the good and bad brands into one common management of a dishonest kind of liquor.
Image: Austrian-born Jew Joseph Greenhut was president of the Great Western Distillery in Peoria IL – the world’s largest. His later company was modeled on Rockefeller’s Standard Oil and referred to as the “Whiskey Trust.”

That advertisement spells the entrepreneur’s name two different ways. Very sloppy.

Good call. It does – Clarke and Clark.
P.S. I tried to leave a comment to the most recent post (9-11) on your linked website but couldn’t do it just as a regular reader with a name, email address and website link.

You can sign in with Google to comment.
I am not sure but I think if you use Open ID you don’t really have to sign in with anything.

I’m not set up with Google. Okay, I’ll try the “Open ID” again when I get time.

Not just ‘unscrupulous’ business practices, but outright terrorism.
Like my comment about Dutch Schultz blinding ppl who wouldn’t his sub-standard beer,
.
Meyer Lansky was big in the ‘blended’ whiskey thing. He kept chemists under duress until they formulated something close to traditional whiskey. Also, they hijacked much of the pharmaceutical alcohol industry to make bootleg.
.
So many jews were in the bootleg business that Lake Erie was known as the jewish lake and the boats on it were called the ‘jewish navy’. Bronfmans built a giant distillery just across the river in Windsor to facilitate the smuggling.
.
Ironically, when Canada had its prohibition, the jews smuggled booze the opposite direction. Going from the US into Canada. They had experience in both directions.
.
They made oceans of money from bootlegging during prohibition. TIJ fails to mention the use of the money. jews didn’t bury it in the basement, as Italians do. They declared it and bought up many businesses, like theaters , Hollywood, IBP ( Iowa Beef Packers, which gave them a perfect distribution system for bootlegging).
Theaters have large untraceable cash flow, the perfect vehicle for money laundering and tax evasion. The jews use the money in a compounding fashion.

Forgot to mention that the bootleg money helped to take control of the 3 major networks, build Las Vegas(casinos, another great money laundering facility and tax evasion scheme).
.
Prohibition was a great boost to organized crime, especially jews. Just as drugs are, now.

I couldn’t help noticing that in the old whiskey advert the word “Whiskey” is spelled with an E at the end. What I have is “Whisky”, with the E missing. Perhaps like Ford mentioned.. I have “whisky” not “Whiskey”(with an E)
Keep up the good work Lady and Gents!
