 Israeli Journalist Calls For Castration Of Palestinians

 PalestineChronicle.com | January 20, 2001

 TEL AVIV - An Israel daily newspaper reported Saturday about an article
calling for the castration of Palestinians living in Israel "as a means of
fighting terrorism."

 The article published last week in the leading Israeli-Russian daily
Novosti was called "How To Force Them To Leave" and written by Marian
Belenki, one of the paper's prominent journalists.

 It said that the threat of castration may be strong enough to encourage
the Arabs to leave the country.

 According to the newspaper Ha'aretz, "the author also proposed that the
Chinese method for lowering birth rates be implemented in Israel for the
Arab population in order to lower their birth rates. According to this
method, people who have more than one child are deprived of various
benefits, lose their jobs, and are under threat of exile. Cash prizes for
young men who voluntarily agree to the castration will also be provided,
according to the proposed method."

 The paper's editor, Leonid Petorkovsky, claimed, according to the
newspaper that "the publication of the article was a grave mistake,
explaining that the editors overlooked the contents of the article and
checked only grammar and spelling."

 However, "what is even more surprising than the fact that the piece got
published, is that the paper did not receive any responses from readers or
public representatives of the Russian community. It should be noted that
the paper is one of two leading dailies of the Russian community in
Israel."

Zundelsite comment:

This suggestion by a Jewish writer to castrate prisoners isn't a "First".
The American writer, Theodore Nathan Kaufman published a detailed plan in
1941 in his book, "Germany Must Perish!", (Argyle Press, Newark, N.J.), in
which he outlined a plan on how to castrate the entire German population
surgically, starting with the millions of captured Wehrmacht soldiers after
the war.

Dr. Goebbels had this plan broadcast over German radio, and it is thought
to be one of the reasons why the German army fought so hard after D-Day.

Castration was, in fact, the fate of German troops interrogated after the
war in Dachau and Schw=E4bisch-Hall:

Here I quote:

[START]

"The American Judge Edward L. van Roden, one of the three members of the
Simpson Army Commission which was subsequently appointed to investigate the
methods of justice at the Dachau trials, revealed the methods by which
these admissions were secured in the Washington Daily News, January 9,
1949.  His account also appeared in the British newspaper, the Sunday
Pictorial, January 23rd, 1949.  The methods he described were:

"Posturing as priests to hear confessions and give absolution;  torture
with burning matches driven under the prisoners' fingernails;  knocking out
of teeth and breaking jaws;  solitary confinement and near starvation
rations."  Van Roden explained:  "The statements which were admitted as
evidence were obtained from men who had first been kept in solitary
confinement for three, four and five months (...) The investigators would
put a black hood over the accused's head and then punch him in the face
with brass knuckles, kick him and beat him with rubber hoses (...) All but
two of the Germans, in the 139 cases we investigated, had been kicked in
the testicles beyond repair.  This was standard operating procedures with
our American investigators."

The "American" investigators responsible (and who later functioned as the
prosecution in the trials) were:  Lt. Col. Burton F. Ellis (Chief of the
War Crimes Committee) and his assistants, Capt. Raphael Shumacker, Lt.
Robert E. Byrne, Lt. William R. Perl, Mr. Morris Ellowitz, Mr. Harry Thon,
and Mr. Kirschbaum.  The legal adviser of the court was Col. A.H.
Rosenfeld.  The reader will immediately appreciate from their names that
the majority of these people were "biased on racial grounds" in the words
of Justice Wennersturm - that is, were Jewish, and therefore should never
have been involved in any such investigation.

Despite the fact that "confessions" pertaining to the extermination of the
Jews were extracted under these conditions, Nuremberg statements are still
regarded as conclusive evidence for the Six Million (...)  and the illusion
is maintained that the trials were both impartial and impeccably fair.
When General Tailor, the Chief Public Prosecutor, was asked where he had
obtained the figure of the Six Million, he replied that it was based on the
confession of S.S. General Otto Ohlendorf.  He, too, was tortured (...) But
as far as such "confessions" in general are concerned, we can do no better
than quote the British Sunday Pictorial when reviewing the report of Judge
van Roden:  "Strong men were reduced to broken wrecks ready to mumble any
admission demanded by their prosecutors."
