Fellows;
We must understand where much of this hatred comes from ! Clearly, it comes from one of the greatest hoaxes perpetrated upon the world ! It began to show up
in about 1905 in a booklets & tracts entitled " The Protocols of the Meetings of the Learned Elders of Zion". Since it purportedly tells of a clandestine meeting in
Basel, Switzerland in 1897, between Jews and the Freemasons. This meeting was ostensibly about how the Jews and Masons were going to "take over the world".
Although completely bogus with no original manuscripts were ever found (even in 1905) the "Protocols of Zion" myth continued to grow in hate-legend as well as in the
hearts of conspiracy buffs.
Needless to say, there were some out there that wanted a strong excuse to hate Jews, and this 1905 diatribe worked much in the way today's productions
by Oliver Stone and Micheal Moore work against traditional Americanism...for those that WANT to believe such things...
Surprisingly, some bright people such as Henry Ford were caught up in the hoax..but not many truly perceptive people fell for it ! Even though it has been debunked
many times over the years, historically the Reds, Nazis, Neo-Nazis, skinheads and Muslims have all sucked it up (each for their own reasons) !
Have you noticed that often these disparate groups do hold a type of otherwise hard to explain "spiritual kinship" ? Recently, Egyptian TV did a miniseries called
"Horseman Without a Horse"..based upon the "Protocols"..and pretending them to be true !
So when you hear someone belabor the terms " Zion, Zionism, Zionist" etc. just remember these terms are regularly used by the hate groups mentioned above..
or their many "kissing cousins"..
A look at some of their literature, tracts etc., exhibits it's low-brow (knuckle-dragger ?) origins.
Here is an informative explanation fro the Univ California at Santa Barbara :
