Keep an Eye on the Canaries

I am not the most self-confident person on earth, regardless of how I may come off in writing. For this reason, I am often shocked to see how right I’ve been. I was right when I called Obama “Carter II,” before other people were predicting it. I was right about Pajamas Media, Arnold Schwarzenegger, the housing market…I don’t want to make a list, but I have been right about a whole lot of things.

Today I realized how right I’ve been about anti-Semitism.

I was driving home from church this afternoon, and I saw a well-known graffitti wall beside I-95 in Miami. I can’t recall the exact words that were painted on it, but the gist of it was that we should kill the “Wall Street Bankers.”

That’s the whole message. Not, “Adjust the law to reduce corruption.” Not, “Find those who have committed crimes and give them fair trials.” No, this was more of a Cambodian-style distillation of mob sentiment. “Let’s kill an entire class of people, without trial, based on a vague suspicion that some of them are doing things we don’t like.” This kind of thinking is what put over a million bodies in ditches in Cambodia, for crimes such as reading books and wearing eyeglasses.

For a long time, I have predicted a worldwide increase in anti-Semitism. I’ve also predicted that the blame would spread to Bible-believing Christians, but that’s another issue. I saw what was happening in the appeasement-crazy world after 9/11, and I realized it’s always easier to slap the good child than the brat who is causing the problem. I knew people cared more about oil than morality. Israel and the Jews would ultimately pay for the savagery of Muslim terrorists.

Then I saw Jewish names in the news, associated strongly with economic failure. Stearns, Salomon, Madoff…soon to be joined by Bernanke and Geithner. I knew the Jewishness of the names would not escape the notice of the mob.

Now it’s okay to call for the murder of “Wall Street Bankers.” It’s okay for Occupy Wall Street to threaten to storm the homes of people who have money. They discuss it openly. Essentially, the left has sanctioned Kristallnacht. They’re just waiting for a surge of momentum to get the movement out of the potential well and into an unstabilized state where it can run away like an atomic pile.

What has “bankers” historically meant, in the mouths of mob criminals? “JEWS.” Perennial losers and effete antisocial opportunists with bullhorns are gaining sudden, unmerited prominence and power, and they’re using it to tell our mindless, rebellion-loving children that “bankers” have cheated them. More importantly, they’ve cheated the underprivileged. So killing the bankers isn’t revenge. It’s social justice. It’s altruism. Barging into a rich Jew’s home, beating him to death, stealing his valuables, and raping his wife and daughters isn’t debauchery and mayhem. It’s karma. It would be wrong NOT to do it. So, like Che Guevara, who used economic disparity as an excuse to sate his preexisting love of cruelty and murder, our urchin vigilantes are becoming convinced that any act of sadism, covetousness, or bigotry is a mitzvah, as long as “bankers” are the victims.

Democrats are fanning the flames. Our elected representatives should be recoiling in horror at the hatred and obvious stupidity of the Occupy movement, but they’re not. Elections are won and lost by paper-thin margins these days, and the unanticipated result is that politicians will sink to levels that, in the past, were too low even for those inclined to seek public office. Democrats know they’re unpopular. They’re losing the Jewish vote, the centrist vote, the Latin vote, and even some of the black vote. They don’t think they can sell us the same product that got them through the last few election cycles. Not to the same people. But now they have a glimmer of hope. Dirty, spoiled kids and equally spoiled union hacks will sit in parks and get free media attention for the left. Who knows? Maybe they’ll gain popularity. There are plenty of people out there who would like the government to take other people’s money and give it to them. There are probably millions of deadbeats who don’t want to honor their student loans. Maybe this will pay off at the polls. So our President and many prominent Democrats in Congress are backing the mob. It’s shocking. They’re pouring gasoline on the fire, simply because they think the wind is blowing it away from them.

What do you say when your President applauds the actions of a hate-crazed mob that has no respect for the law and knows no fear? Who protects you when the executive branch is against you? These are the people who look after us. The G-men. The DOJ. The FBI. When our supreme authority says you’re fair game, who are you supposed to run to? Anne Frank could tell you.

Here is our situation. The left is telling us the Jews are the reason for Mideast tension. They cause high gas prices. They cause “unnecessary” and “illegal” wars. They steal land. They enforce apartheid. Now “bankers” with Jewish names have brought our country down, taken all the wealth, caused the real estate collapse, and killed all the jobs. And the message from the media is that the right has gone crazy. The “Jesusland” nuts in the Tea Party want to bring back Jim Crow, starve babies and old people, take away our medical care, and, I guess, kick puppies in the stomach. The President has given this worldview his blessing, and half of Congress agrees.

It’s going to get worse. Within a year, we’ll start hearing the word “Jew” as well as “banker” and “Zionist.” At first, it will be “isolated” incidents. Sooner or later, the cowards will see that they have sufficient numbers to justify boldness, and then we’ll hear it more often. What then? It probably depends on the polls.

Liberals will probably sell the Jews out gradually. Rich Jews who work on Wall Street? I guess we can afford to let them go. Conservative Jews who want an undivided Israel? They’re just troublemakers anyway, and they’re off the DNC plantation. Professional Jews who make good money? Well, this country gave to them, so it’s time they gave a little back. And if Jews start voting conservatively, in self-defense, it will just prove they were on the wrong side all along.

With luck, we’re about 15 years from yellow felt stars, and from there, it’s a short step to Zyklon B.

And of course, Jews will be prominent in the Occupy movement. Until it decides to feed on them. That’s always the way. They helped Russia go communist, and then the state turned on them and gave free rein to endemic Eastern European anti-Semitism. Jews who have no relationship with God have a long history of serving their worst enemies.

I’m glad this disgusting mural went up. I hope to see more of them. I hope they start illustrating them with cartoons of “bankers” being disembowelled. Those who are capable of being educated need a window into the mind of the sleeping (or more accurately, stoned) giant.

Satan hates God’s people, both Jewish and Christian. He will try to kill the Jews to prevent prophecy from coming true, and he will try to get the rest of us so no one will remain to restrain him.

Laugh now. In five years, it won’t seem so funny.
