ZGram - Where Truth is Destiny:  Now more than ever!

April 2, 2003

Good Morning from the Zundelsite:

One of the very first "revisionist" speeches I heard was sent to me 
via audio.  I still consider it one of the best.  It has been around 
for a long time, but it is a true classic, and you owe it to yourself 
to listen to it more than once - and to pass it on to a friend, for 
there are parallels to our times we better comprehend.

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. -- K.A.S.

A Jewish Defector Warns America by Benjamin Freedman
 
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 religious feeling. 
There was no sentiment against those people merely on account of 
their religious belief. It was all political. It was economic. It was 
anything but religious. Nobody cared in Germany whether a Jew went 
home and pulled down the shades and said "Shema 'Yisroel" or "Our 
Father." 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 remember that Germany at the time of the French 
Revolution consisted of 300 small city-states, principalities, 
dukedoms, and so forth. Three hundred separate little political 
entities. And between that time, between the times of Napoleon and 
Bismarck, they were consolidated into one state. And within 50 years 
they became one of the world's great powers. Their navy was rivaling 
Great Britain's, they were doing business all over the world, they 
could undersell anybody, they could make better products. What 
happened as a result of that?
 
There was a conspiracy between England, France, and Russia to slap 
down Germany. There isn't one historian in the world who can find a 
valid reason why those three countries decided to wipe Germany off 
the map politically.
 
When Germany realized that the Jews were responsible for her defeat, 
they naturally resented it. But not a hair on the head of any Jew was 
harmed. Not a single hair. Professor Tansill, of Georgetown 
University, who had access to all the secret papers of the State 
Department, wrote in his book, and quoted from a State Department 
document written by Hugo Schoenfelt, a Jew whom Cordell Hull sent to 
Europe in 1933 to investigate the so-called camps of political 
prisoners, who wrote back that he found them in very fine condition. 
They were in excellent shape, with everybody treated well. And they 
were filled with Communists. Well, a lot of them were Jews, because 
the Jews happened to comprise about 98 per cent of the Communists in 
Europe at that time. And there were some priests there, and 
ministers, and labor 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 Jews took over the government for three days. In fact, 
when the Kaiser ended the war he fled to Holland because he thought 
the Communists were going to take over Germany as they did Russia and 
that he was going to meet the same fate as the Czar. So he fled to 
Holland for safety, for security. After the Communist threat in 
Germany was quashed, the Jews were still working, trying to get back 
into their former status, and the Germans fought them in every way 
they could without hurting a single hair on anyone's head. They 
fought 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 of the economy 
because they had come in with cheap money when the mark was devalued 
and bought up practically everything.
 
The Jews tried to keep a lid on this fact. They didn't want the world 
to really understand that they had sold out Germany, and that the 
Germans resented that.
 
The Germans took appropriate action against the Jews. They, shall I 
say, discriminated against them wherever they could. They shunned 
them. The same way that we would shun the Chinese, or the Negroes, or 
the Catholics, or anyone in this country who had sold us out to an 
enemy and brought about our defeat.
 
After a while, the Jews of the world called a meeting in Amsterdam. 
Jews from every country in the world attended this meeting in July 
1933. And they said to Germany: "You fire Hitler, and you put every 
Jew back into his former position, whether he was a Communist or no 
matter what he was. You can't treat us that way. And we, the Jews of 
the world, are serving an ultimatum upon you." You can imagine what 
the Germans told them.

So what did the Jews do?
 
In 1933, when Germany refused to surrender to the world conference of 
Jews in Amsterdam, the conference broke up, and Mr. Samuel Untermyer, 
who was 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 Columbia Broadcasting System and made a radio 
broadcast throughout the United States in which he in effect said, 
"The Jews of the world now declare a Holy War against Germany. We are 
now engaged in a sacred conflict against the Germans. And we are 
going to starve them into surrender. We are going to use a world-wide 
boycott against them. That will destroy them because they are 
dependent upon their export business."
 
And it is a fact that two thirds of Germany's food supply had to be 
imported, and it could only be imported with the proceeds of what 
they exported. So if Germany could not export, two thirds of 
Germany's population would have to starve. There was just not enough 
food for more than one third of the population. Now in this 
declaration, which I have here, and which was printed in the New York 
Times on August 7, 1933, Mr. Samuel Untermyer boldly stated that 
"this economic boycott is our means of self-defense. President 
Roosevelt has advocated its use in the National Recovery 
Administration," which some of you may remember, where everybody was 
to be boycotted unless he followed the rules laid down by the New 
Deal, and which was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court of 
that time. Nevertheless, the Jews of the world declared a boycott 
against Germany, and it was so effective that you couldn't find one 
thing in any store anywhere in the world with the words "Made in 
Germany" on it. In fact, an executive of the Woolworth Company told 
me that they had to dump millions of dollars worth of crockery and 
dishes into the river; that their stores were boycotted if anyone 
came in and found a dish marked "made in Germany," they were picketed 
with signs saying "Hitler," "murderer," and so forth, something like 
these sit-ins that are taking place in the South.
 
At a store belonging to the R. H. Macy chain, which was controlled by 
a family called Strauss who also happen to be Jews, a woman found 
stockings there which came from Chemnitz, marked "Made in Germany." 
Well, they were cotton stockings and they may have been there 20 
years, since I've been observing women's legs for many years and it's 
been a long time since I've seen any cotton stockings on them. I saw 
Macy's boycotted, with hundreds of people walking around with signs 
saying "murderers," "Hitlerites," and so forth.
 
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 against us and throw all our people out of work, and make our 
industries come to a standstill? Who are they to do that to us?" They 
naturally resented it. Certainly they painted swastikas on stores 
owned by Jews. Why should a German go in and give his money to a 
storekeeper who was part of a boycott that was going to starve 
Germany into surrendering to the Jews of the world, who were going to 
dictate who their premier or chancellor was to be? Well, it was 
ridiculous.
 
The boycott continued for some time, but it wasn't until 1938, when a 
young Jew from Poland walked into the German embassy in Paris and 
shot a German official, that the Germans really started to get rough 
with the Jews in Germany. And you found them then breaking windows 
and having street fights and so forth.
 
Now I don't like to use the word "anti-Semitism" because it's 
meaningless, but it means something to you still, so I'll have to use 
it. The only reason that there was any feeling in Germany against 
Jews was that they were responsible for World War I and for this 
world-wide boycott. Ultimately they were also responsible for World 
War II, because after this thing got out of hand, it was absolutely 
necessary for the Jews and Germany to lock horns in a war to see 
which one was going to survive. In the meanwhile, I had lived in 
Germany, and I knew that the Germans had decided that Europe is going 
to be Christian or Communist: there is no in between. And the Germans 
decided they were going to keep it Christian if possible. And they 
started to re-arm.

In November 1933 the United States recognized the Soviet Union. The 
Soviet Union was becoming very powerful, and Germany realized that 
"Our turn was going to come soon, unless we are strong." The same as 
we in this country are saying today, "Our turn is going to come soon, 
unless we are strong." Our government is spending 83 or 84 billion 
dollars for defense. Defense against whom? Defense against 40,000 
little Jews in Moscow that took over Russia, and then, in their 
devious ways, took over control of many other countries of the world.
 
For this country now to be on the verge of a Third World War, from 
which we cannot emerge a victor, is something that staggers my 
imagination. I know that nuclear bombs are measured in terms of 
megatons. A megaton is a term used to describe one million tons of 
TNT. Our nuclear bombs had a capacity of 10 megatons, or 10 million 
tons of TNT, when they were first developed. Now, the nuclear bombs 
that are being developed have a capacity of 200 megatons, and God 
knows how many megatons the nuclear bombs of the Soviet Union have.
 
What do we face now? If we trigger a world war that may develop into 
a nuclear war, humanity is finished. Why might such a war take place? 
It will take place as the curtain goes up on Act 3: Act 1 was World 
War I, Act 2 was World War II, Act 3 is going to be World War III. 
The Jews of the world, the Zionists and their co-religionists 
everywhere, are determined that they are going to again use the 
United States to help them permanently retain Palestine as their 
foothold for their world government. That is just as true as I am 
standing here. Not alone have I read it, but many here have also read 
it, and it is known all over the world.
 
What are we going to do? The life you save may be your son's. Your 
boys may be on their way to that war tonight; and you don't know it 
any more than you knew that in 1916 in London the Zionists made a 
deal with the British War Cabinet to send your sons to war in Europe. 
Did you know it at that time? Not a person in the United States knew 
it. You weren't permitted to know it. Who knew it? President Wilson 
knew it. Colonel House knew it. Other insiders knew it.
 
Did I know it? I had a pretty good idea of what was going on: I was 
liaison to Henry Morgenthau, Sr., in the 1912 campaign when President 
Wilson was elected, and there was talk around the office there. I was 
"confidential man" to Henry Morgenthau, Sr., who was chairman of the 
Finance Committee, and I was liaison between him and Rollo Wells, the 
treasurer. So I sat in these meetings with President Wilson at the 
head of the table, and all the others, and I heard them drum into 
President Wilson's brain the graduated income tax and what has become 
the Federal Reserve, and I heard them indoctrinate him with the 
Zionist movement. Justice Brandeis and President Wilson were just as 
close as the two fingers on this hand. President Woodrow Wilson was 
just as incompetent when it came to determining what was going on as 
a newborn baby. That is how they got us into World War I, while we 
all slept. They sent our boys over there to be slaughtered. For what? 
So the Jews can have Palestine as their "commonwealth." They've 
fooled you so much that you don't know whether you're coming or going.
