To See the Stars Again…
Feb 21st, 2009 by Syd Walker

“It was from there that we emerged, to see – once more – the stars.”

Giovanni Stradano's Illustration For Canto 17 of Dante's Inferno, 1587

Observe grazing herbivores. They usually stick together in herds and flocks. They like a peaceful life. They keep an eye out for trouble.

If danger is sensed by one, it’s behaviour signals this quickly to the rest. To make a flock of sheep move down a valley, a predator need only show up at the top and be seen by one or two. They’ll move away in alarm and the others will follow.

People aren’t exactly like that. We’re people – and that’s just an analogy. But there’s something in it. We’re group animals. We like to stick together. We keep an eye out for threats – and we have an almost in-built tendency to follow, even blindly, if leaders look like they know what they’re doing.

Gerard Henderson

Gerard Henderson: an Australian Zionist enforcer

In the USA, in Britain, Australia and most other ‘western’ countries, the power of the Israel Lobby, working back-to-back with organized Jewry, has grown so great that it has become noticeably oppressive. The distortion of public discourse required to accommodate this bias has long been intolerable. We must break out of the hex… but it’s easier said than done. Who will lead? Will anyone follow?

Authors like Melanie Phillips in Britain, Gerald Henderson in Australia and Jeffrey Goldsberg in the USA are examples of Zionist sheepdogs whose main aim seems to be frightening the gentile flock. They present us with specific well-publicized cases that demonstrate the dire consequences of standing out of line. They instill in us fear that the consequences of dissent are too great to contemplate.

Melanie Phillips

Melanie Phillips: torrents of sectarian bigotry

It matters little whether they are kvetching about the forthcoming Anti-Apartheid Conference, the affairs of the Roman Catholic Church or the persistence of a modicum of anti-Zionist opposition within the American intelligensia that might serve as a nucleus for opposition to their war mongering.

All these are grist to the mill for Zionist interference agents, who calmly assume they have the right to direct the flock on every matter.

Most of the mystique of these jackals lies in the fact that they have persuaded the masses that yes, indeed, jackals do have a crucial role in their ongoing welfare – and that yes, any questioning of this role is ‘anti-Jackalism’, a particularly loathsome type of disease that will ensure the perpetrator is permanently singled out for special treatment.

Jeffrey Goldberg

Jeffrey Goldberg: American Zionist who tells lies to ferment wars for Israel

We need to call the Zionists’ bluff. Not everyone is in a position to do this head on. Some are in employment or professional roles where making initial waves on this hot topic may be too risky. But not everyone is  required to lead. Only a few. The key thing is that we stick together.

No sheepdogs, jackals or wolves can withstand the power of masses of free beasts, insistently standing their ground. United, the people stand. Divided, we’ll continue to be culled.

Over-weaning Zionist power must be broken. In western countries, most of it is within our own brainwashed minds. We must first free our minds from this crazed ideology – then our society. We should stick together. When attacks come,  stick together even more…

Faced with determined opponents, united and resolute in their refusal to be bullied any more, Zionists will likely slink away. It will be ‘no contest’. The kvetching will subside. Once the bias in our discourse corrected, real healing can begin.

Doors of Perception

Finding the stairway to heaven

The instinctive terror felt by herbivores at the prospect of standing out alone is akin to barriers within human consciousness which Aldous Huxley called the Doors of Perception.

Choosing to escape is a choice that’s ours to make. Open the doors and we can see the stars once again.

As Dante described ascent from the Inferno:

E quindi uscimmo a riveder le stelle
