"The International Jew" Study Hour - Episode 71

Oct. 31, 2011

Hadding Scott and Carolyn Yeager read and comment on Chapter 66, “The Jews’ Complaint Against “Americanism.”

It cannot be denied that the Jews constitute “a people within a people, a nation within a nation,” in whatever nation they dwell. This being so, the solution to The Jewish Problem must come through one of two things:  a separation of their “nation” from the rest of the nations, or an exaltation of their “nation” above the rest. Other points made:

• Jews most complain of what they themselves began -  anti-Semitism, the ghetto, their separate nationhood;
• The Ghetto Jew from Russia and Poland is held up as the norm and purest example of Judaism;
• Jewish leaders are quoted who object to and deplore the “Americanizing” of Jews, especially in the areas of diet and worship;
• Justice Brandeis of the US Supreme Court said the Jew needs to be protected from the emancipation from the ghetto, and that Palestine was the answer;
• Jews see in the modern state both an opportunity and a menace – and that is why the nation-state has been targeted for destruction by the World Program.
