Kevin MacDonald: Pat Buchanan is a national treasure — by far the most articulate and sensible spokesman in the mainstream media — or at least close to it — for a wide range of issues, from immigration, to economic nationalism, to foreign policy issues. Unfortunately, his exposure in the MSM seems to be on the wane. He still appears on the McLaughlin Group, but his former base at MSNBC has disappeared, and his exposure in the major newspapers seems non-existent. I can remember in the 1990’s when he was a regular on the LA Times op-ed page, which seems inconceivable now. (There was an LA Times column he did on the Frankfurt School at a time when I was starting to research Jewish intellectual movements. After reading his account of how the Frankfurt School undermined the family, I thought that there might be a Jewish story there. Not a bad guess. The Frankfurt School was labeled a “Jewish sect” by Gershon Scholem, and the Frankfurt School became the subject of Ch. 5 of The Culture of Critique and much subsequent writing. Thanks Pat.) Not surprisingly, Buchanan has a very long rap sheet at the ADL.
Buchanan’s latest article, “The Poodle Gets Kicked,” on the Biden visit to Israel will do nothing to endear him to the ADL. Buchanan makes an excellent case on the absurdity of supposing that US and Israeli interests are identical. The interesting thing is that the version that appeared on the Human Events website was about half the length of the original. (See “Human Events Censors Pat Buchanan’s Latest Column” at Buchanan.org). Linda Muller, who runs Buchanan.org, suggests that this is the result of neocon censors at Human Events, and notes that the revised version leaves out any mention of AIPAC or the USS Liberty incident.
It should surprise no one that Human Events would be involved in such a clumsy version of censorship. These are the people who fired Kevin Lamb after a phone call from the SPLC. (See Lamb’s VDARE article, “The Leftward Course Of Human Events.“)
The Human Events censor seems to have been motivated to expunge statements implying extreme groveling by Biden, as in his ridiculous statement “Progress occurs in the Middle East when everyone knows there is simply no space between the United States and Israel.” Of course, the opposite is the case. No space means that Israel can stall peace talks forever without having to worry that the US will do anything about it. Biden should have a special place in George Orwell’s Hall of Fame.
The censor also expunged the most egregious examples where Israel has demonstrated quite clearly that it has always pursued its own interests even when they conflict with US interests — not only in the USS Liberty case, but also stealing uranium during the JFK administration, transferring US technology to China, and spying on the US. (Buchanan was being kind by only mentioning Pollard; there are many more examples; see here and here.) The Israeli policy of ethnic cleansing on the West Bank and Jerusalem is therefore part of a long list of areas where Israel refuses to modify its goals by listening to its poodle. Why should it? Nobody cares what poodles think.
The following is Buchanan’s entire column with the censored parts underlined.
Actually, Joe set himself up. From the moment he set foot on Israeli soil, our vice president was in full pander mode.
First, he headed to Yad Vashem memorial, where he put on a yarmulke and declared Israel “a central bolt in our existence.”
“For world Jewry,” Joe went on, presumably including 5 million Americans, “Israel is the heart. … Israel is the light. … Israel is the hope.”
Meeting Shimon Peres the next day, Joe confessed that when he first visited at age 29, “Israel captured my heart.”
In Peres’ guestbook, he wrote, “The bond between our two nations has been and remains unshakeable.”
He then told Peres and the world, “There is absolutely no space between the United States and Israel when it comes to Israel’s security.”
As Peres spoke, Biden took notes. When Peres called him “a friend,” Joe gushed, “It’s good to be home.”
Even at AIPAC, they must have been gagging.
Walking around the corner to Prime Minister Netanyahu’s office, Joe called him by his nickname, “Bibi,” declared him a “real” friend and said the U.S. relationship with Israel “has been and will continue to be the centerpiece of our policy.”
Then the sandbag hit.
Interior Minister Eli Yishai announced construction of 1,600 new apartment units in Arab East Jerusalem. Stunned and humiliated, Biden issued a statement saying he “condemned” the decision.
He then retaliated by coming late to dinner at Bibi’s house.
Netanyahu has apologized for the timing, but they are going ahead with the apartments. What are the Americans going to do about it? At this point, nothing but bluster.
Indeed, a day later, at Tel Aviv University, Joe was back at it: “(T)he U.S. has no better friend … than Israel.”
On his departure for Jordan, Ha’aretz reported that Israel plans to build 50,000 new homes in East Jerusalem over the next few years.
Biden may feel he was played for a fool, and Americans may feel jilted, but we got what grovelers deserve. And if we wish to understand why the Arabs who once respected us now seem contemptuous of us, consider that battered-spouse response to a public slap across the face.
Consider also the most remarkable statement of Biden’s first 24 hours.
“Progress occurs in the Middle East when everyone knows there is simply no space between the United States and Israel.”
Biden is saying we are a more effective force for Mideast peace in a region where Arabs outnumber Israelis 50 to one if everyone knows we sing from the same song sheet as Israel and have no policy independent of Israel’s.
How can America be seen as an honest broker between Arabs and Israelis if there is “no space” between America and Israel?
Even with the closest ally in our history, Britain in World War II, there was space between Winston Churchill and FDR on where to invade — North Africa, Italy, France, the Balkans? — whether to beat Stalin to Berlin, Prague and Vienna, who should be supreme allied commander, even whether the British Empire should survive.
Israel keeps its own interests foremost in mind, and when these dictate actions inimical to U.S. interests, Israel acts unilaterally. David Ben-Gurion did not seek Dwight Eisenhower’s permission to attack Egypt in collusion with the French and British in 1956, enraging Ike.
Israel did not consult JFK on whether it could steal enriched uranium from the NUMEC plant in Pennsylvania for its atom bomb program.
Israel did not consult us on whether it could attack the USS Liberty in the Six-Day War, or suborn Jonathan Pollard to loot our security secrets, or transfer our weapons technology to China. They went ahead and did it, knowing the Americans would swallow hard and take it.
Ehud Olmert did not consult President-elect Obama on whether to launch a war on Gaza and kill 1,400 Palestinians. Nor did Netanyahu consult us before Mossad took down the Hamas minister in Dubai.
What Netanyahu and Yishai are telling Obama with their decision to keep building on occupied land is, “When it comes to East Jerusalem and the West Bank, we decide, not you.”
And if Netanyahu has jolted Joe and others out of their romantic reveries about Israel, good. At least now we no longer see as through a glass darkly.
Israeli and U.S. interests often run parallel, but they are not the same. Israel is concerned with a neighborhood. We are concerned with a world of 300 million Arabs and a billion Muslims. Our policies cannot be the same.
If they are, we will end up with all of Israel’s enemies, who are legion, and only Israel’s friends, who are few.
And if our policy and Israel’s are one and the same, the Arab perception will be what it is today — that America cannot stand up to Israel, even when her national interests command it.
Joe’s performance before he got the wet mitten across the face only underscored the point: The mighty superpower is a poodle of Israel.

ISRAEL DID HAVE A PART IN 9/11 ATTACKS(AS DID CIA),,THERE’S PLENTY OF PROOF,BUT ZIONIST MEDIA WONT ALLOW.
Here’s the irony of all the anti-Semitism propaganda,the more Jews use it inappropriately to silence criticsm and investigation in their actions,the more TRUE anti-Semites they will create.
The fact that there have been about 40 evictions of Jews by European nations (some more than once) in the last 1,000 years (Germany being the latest),shows us that they are incredibly myopic when it comes to not knowing when to back off.
If there is some devastating nuclear war between us and another nation,I have absolutely no doubt whose hands will have started it.
It is not “anti-semite” , its “anti-termite”.
The revulsion the nation is experiencing is disgust with the undermining of society by termites.
The termites control the obnoxious monetary system, the low rent termite cussball controls the Propoganda Ministry aka MSM, the termites control the ballot box with their microchips, the military with their hired coneheads in DC, the culture, posture, policies, money, are all termite operations.
If the earth had 1000 people, then, all of 20 would be termites, yet , they worked their plan, take their meetings, network their cousins (when thy’re not marrying them), and in the last 250 years have managed tio get complete control of the planet. Even termite worshiping lackehy Al “official termite waterboy” Gore, has taken control of the weather
The parts they don’t control “yet”, they bomb….
Israhell has initsposession between 200 and 400 nuclear tipped missiles. Aimed at cities throughout Europe and the U.S.
This is nuclear blackmail and we need to put at end to it pronto.
We need to elect to congress, people who will take a stand against israhel and their zionist agenda. People who refuse to grovel in front of the AIPAC garbage. people who will put America’s interests first, last and in between. Not Israhell’s.
It is plain there are the rumbling of discord against Israhell becoming clearer every day. There is a rebirth if nationalism which obviously israhell finds quite disturbing as it threatens to undermine their power. We need to tap into that discord. If we can then manage to take back control of our nation from the zionists we could then with the cooperation of other Erupean nations begin to deal with israhell in the only way possible: destroy their nuclear silos and force them to come to gripos with reality: They do not own and control the world.
We need to elect those of the Constitution and Libertarian Parties, so there will be no question as to who will then control our government. We will.
“Although the Jews have appeared in the histories of other nations throughout the centuries, they were never able or willing to establish a nation of their own. They remain forever desolate in this regard. The only way the Jews got possession of Palestine was by using other people to steal it from the Turks and Arabs for them. The so-called ‘Israeli’ state is nothing but a parasitic state, since it is occupied by parasites. The Jews get billions of dollars from Germany as ‘reparations’ and ‘restitution payments’ for its alleged ‘war crimes’ against Jews. They get billions more every year from the United States. It (Israel) has to steal or buy technology from Western nations as the Jews have not the creativity to develop their own. The Jewish state of Israeli would collapse in a minute without the continued support, protection and assistance from Jacob/Israel (The White Nations of Christendom). It is not, never has been, and never will be a self-sustaining nation.” (Charles A. Weisman, Who is Esau-Edom?, pp. 27-28).
Who recides in the “state of Israel” and who are the true physical owners who were given the land to occupy and or own in an “earthly” sense? Please read: http://www.gods-kingdom-ministries.org/weblog/WebPosting.cfm?LogID=1971
See the 2003 Guardian newspaper quote by Professor Martin van Creveld which I used to introduce the van Creveld interview posted here:
http://majorityrights.com/index.php/forums/viewthread/227/ .
I think that’s a subject that calls for openness, a lot more disclosure and publicity, and a thorough public airing among Europe’s targeted populations. What, exactly, does that targeting mean? Are Europe’s militaries taking steps at deterrence or reciprocal targeting? These questions need to be discussed openly. Right now they’re being totally quashed by someone. (I can’t imagine who ….)
Are Europe’s militaries taking steps at deterrence or reciprocal targeting?
you can bet, out of pc considerations the US has not. Not to mention Jews are in almost complete control of the key departments. there are some old military left but not many
and the dumbing down and ‘diversifying’ of the military academies will have their effect as well – jews only want fellow hostile minorities in key positions they do not want any white solidarity in any department or service branch.
Israel isn’t the problem…its the Bolshevik, Commie Jews that are RIGHT HERE in OUR LANDS that ARE the problem. Ship every one of these Jews off to Israhell and let them fend for themselves. Ship every non-Jew Zionist off there too. Just prior to that, get the Arab countries to open their borders to the Palestinians.
Now, with all the “Jews” and their supporters living in Israel…they can bloody well stay there and suffer their own end. We need not dirty our hands any further in their affairs.
There is 0 reason for having Jews in any chief, prestigious, coveted or in anywise influential positions EVER. Get them all out, just be certain to be rid of the cancer. Ship em off to Israel and let them stew.
I suppose we need to strip Israel of it’s big weaponry first though.
Then, we can finally CLOSE our borders to EVERYONE we want. THEN we can have Christmas trees where we damned well please, THEN we can have women be WOMEN and MEN be MEN, THEN we can have FAMILIES be FAMILIES again, then we can live under our own EUROPEAN & American Heritage, under our Christian and European Pagan faiths and to HELL with Israel & Judah.
No more Jewish judges, no more jewish bankers, no more jewish media moguls, no more Jewish education….
FFFFRRRREEEEEDDDDDOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!!!!!!
meyer amschel bauer, an ugly old askenazi fart , if ever there was one, had a red schild over the door of his nasty looking gold shop in frankfurt back in 1750.

the 250 years of monetary control climaxed by the widely expected collapse of bernie and Elmer Fuld of lehman bros in 2008-9, will soon turn to brownish looking merde….. as the french might say,.
fuld pocketed 500m of old fart meyer bauers green paper in bonuses and lied his way into a enron looking repo deal of $50b that lehman declared (w/ earnst and youngs outrageous indulgence) as a balance sheet asset, when in fact, it was a loan against worthless no bid cdos and cds’s from old maurice greenbergs aig insurance caper down on state st in southern manhatten.
it was a glorified 180 b curbside three card monty scheme that greeder geithner put on the 200M US taxpayer’s amex..

the red schields, the lehmans, the bernies the elmer fulds, the mike milkens, the greenspanners, the rubins, the rubin-skis, the sanford weilds, the rahm emanuals, the ben bernake bearders, the big bibi blowharders, the geithner grim greeder-reapers, and god awful zio-scammers everywhere, who hose and marry their uncles daughters these last 250 years, plus all their desperate zio- hangers on in the usa’s congress, senate, wh, dc bustops and synagogues, are all pathetic meyer amschel bauer derivitive worshiping earth idiots.
they chase old rot schild’s (rot is german for red) leveraged garbage paper , kiss royal’s butt all to get more and more and more, until it gets whirling and multiplying at warp speed , then they all get caught.
they end up with bernie and elmer in the sing sing bridge tournament and shower nightly with some black muscular 290 pound heroin selling soap dancing star.

The zionists get more defensive when they are accused of being an apartheid state. In fact the conditions in South Africa were better than the conditions in GAZA . Gaza is a concentration camp and the GOLDSTONE report uses objectivity to expose this militaristic state that lives off others money.
Israel your country is a colonial construct and your chosen ones mythology and history ie-Jews being slaves in Egypt is pure rubbish
Join the human tribe or get what you deserve–not even that genuflecting bore David Frum can spin his way out of the truth of Goldstone–send the chubby prick to Israel too
Note to Dave: You must be mistaken. Surely the Nazis killed all those Jews – otherwise how could they reach that 6 million mark?
Note to John Z: Isreal calls it the “Samson Option”.
Note to Stinger: “If hopes and buts were candy and nuts, then every day would be Chirstmas” – with trees!
The tired old saw -anti-Israel equals anti-semitism- has about played itself out and it’s high damned time.
The ADL, SPLC, AIPAC and a plethora of other Jewish propaganda organs have stifled free speech and vet all of our elected officials to ensure they tow the Israeli/Jewish line when elected. If they don’t agree to the terms beforehand they don’t get elected. Unless you derive some benefit from this arrangement it should make you vomit.
If there was ever a more convincing argument against a two party political system I’d like to know about it. Here’s all you need in my book.
I’ll say something else that perhaps I shouldn’t but will anyway. I believe that you, Mr. McDonald, know what’s up more so than the rest of us. Meaning, that you realize that your days are numbered as a public figure. You’ve crossed a forbidden line with this ilk and they don’t forget and they never give up. It’s not if but when they finally drive the last nail into your coffin.
That you force them to perform their deeds in the open is commendable. This, unfortunately, is what the American public must witness to finally reach that critical mass that so many countries before us have reached. I don’t know how many Kevin McDonalds it will take before the populace realizes who IS telling the truth and who IS looking out for their best interests.
Godspeed Mr. McDonald you’re a brave man.
I don’t believed in racism or prejudice against minority religions but I also very much support criticism of political movements such as Zionism if it hurts others. It is dreadfully dangerous to Palestinians and has caused untold deaths and destruction to the peoples and lands of the Palestinians. It is inimical to world peace. It is inimical to the best interests of the US. Zionism has betrayed the US on any number od occasions including the attempted sinking of the USS Liberty, the Pollard and other spy cases, the theft of nuclear material from a Pennsylvanian nuclear plant, the cold blooded murder of Americans such as Rachel and other protestors. It has been a long time since Israeli interests and US interests coincided to any great degree. Netanyhu is in Washington this week and the people of the US should let him know that they understand his perfidy and won’t take it anymore.
Pat Buchanan should do a story about his censored article and why they censored the parts they did.
Israel is napalming him like they did the USS Liberty.
And Poodle-Boy Joe Biden should take his pathetic ass back “home” to Israel and stay there where he can lick his masters feet.
Pat Buchanan is a contemporary figure that I greatly admire.His courage and conviction is uplifting and gives me some hope for the future.I add Kevin Macdonald to that list.These two are rare individuals who dont flinch from exposing the truth in this frightful,everyone-has-to-toe-the-line,herd mentality of a liberal world in which we live.
Keep up the good work.We have to reclaim our heritage.
turns out buchana.org was hacked as well:
Dear Brigade,
The site has been down since Wednesday morning. I’m guessing we angered a few folks with some of the topics posted on buchanan.org. Although abortion, gay rights, religion, and other social issues are portrayed as very controversial there are really just a few issues that must never be discussed. I think we passed their limit, Again we are looking forward to days of work to get the site back online and restore the email accounts.
