CHICAGO, 1955
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Jewish community in Chicago, one of the wealthiest in the world, has
always exercised an extremely powerful degree of behind the scenes
influence in the Windy City, an influence just as pervasive and powerful
(if not more so) as that of the Italian organized crime syndicates, all the
more sinister for being far less visible.
In October of 1955 four White children, two young boys who were brothers
and two teenaged sisters, were abducted and murdered in a manner which was
suggestive of Jewish ritual sacrifice, the liturgical object of which is to
obtain Gentile blood to mix with the matzoh used in several esoteric Jewish
religious ceremonies such as Purim, Passover, and Kol Nidre at Yom Kippur.
These were the Schuessler boys and the Grimes girls. Both cases remain
officially unsolved despite hundreds of man-hours of investigation by the
Chicago police. The Grimes case in fact featured on an episode of UNSOLVED
MYSTERIES several years ago, but the show produced no further leads.
The cases shared certain characterstics in common. Both the boys, aged six
and eight respectively, and the girls aged thirteen and fifteen were found
nude, and yet none had been sexually assaulted. According to the
pathologists' reports they had been kept alive for some time after they
were reported missing, although the unusually cold weather in which the
bodies were exposed impeded fixing an exact time of death. The corpses
showed ligature marks on the wrists and ankles, indicating that they had
been tied or restrained. All the victims had been tortured with mostly
small, shallow cuts and puncture wounds, none sufficient to cause death of
itself. The official cause of death was listed as blood loss and shock due
to blood loss and exposure; the childrens' bodies were "drained of blood".
Further peculiarities were observed in the PATTERN of the torture. The two
female victims had been tormented by repeated puncture wounds on the upper
torso, thighs and buttocks, suggesting a sadistic sexual element in the
killers' motivations, but the two young male victims had been transfixed
through the hands, wrists, and feet by larger weapons similar to nails or a
carpenter's awl, inflicting wounds very similar to the so-called stigmata,
the wounds of Christ.
What is interesting about these cases is not the unsolved murders
themselves, but the view which for once we are given of the lengths to
which the Jews will go to cover up suspected ritual murder cases. In view
of the intense public interest in the case there was of course a lot of
media reporting. The Chicago Daily News published an afternoon edition
detailing the ritualistic nature of the wounds inflicted on the Schuessler
boys, comparing it to an earlier case wherein a boy named Peterson had been
found dead with the same kind of wounds, and speculating that members of a
"religious cult" might be involved. Within ten minutes of the edition
hitting the street, trucks were sent out to bring them all in; all copies
were ripped off the newstands and taken back to the News building where
they were burned.
Eight copies of this issue were obtained by a woman named Mrs. Lyle Clark
Van Hyning who published a conservative journal called Women's Voice. When
she called the Daily News office to ask why the paper had been recalled she
was told that there had been "complaints" about it and it was likely to
cause "racial unrest". Mrs. Van Hyning had her own suspicions and sent the
father of the two murdered boys, Arnold Schuessler, a copy of Arnold
Leese's definitive work JEWISH RITUAL MURDER.
Schuessler read the booklet and was stunned by what he learned. He then
made the mistake of going to the police and demanding that the possible
ritual murder angle in his sons' death be investigated. The Cook County
Sheriff of the time was a Jew named Sam Lohman, and he immediately placed
Mr. Schuessler under arrest on suspicion of killing his own children. A
Jewish deputy named Horowitz was sent to the Schuessler home with a party
of men; having ransacked the house looking for "evidence" Horowitz then
placed Mrs. Schusssler and her family under virtual house arrest,
forbidding them to leave the house or speak with anyone on the phone lest
they "spread rumors about the Jews."
Arnold Schuessler took a lie detector test which completely cleared him, as
well as proving that he had an ironclad alibi for the murders. Instead of
releasing him, the authorities committed Arnold Schuessler to a private
mental institution in Des Plaines, Illinois operated by a Dr. Leon
Steinfeld. Mr. Schuessler was rushed right into electroshock treatment,
where he died the same afternoon he arrived at the "sanitarium".
There was sufficient public outcry over the bereaved father's strange death
so that a public inquest into Schuessler's case was held and Dr. Steinfeld
forced to testify. He stated that Arnold Schuessler was suffering from
"hallucinations" and "paranoid delusions" that "certain people were out to
get him." In 1955 there were still a few honest public officials left, one
of them being the Cook County Coroner, a crusty old Irishman named Dr.
Thomas McCarron who was also a qualified psychiatrist. McCarron knew Dr.
Steinfeld of old. During World War Two, Steinfeld had been prosecuted for
giving Jewish boys facing the draft callup various legal and illegal drugs
which would give them heart fibrillations, fill their lungs with liquid to
simulate tuberculosis, give them noxious skin conditions, etc. so they
could avoid military service. Steinfeld allegedly collected $2000 per head
for each Yiddish Mama's Little Bubbeleh he spared from having to go face
the Nazis' cold steel and hot lead. [As an aside, what do you want to bet
every one of these draft-dodging kikes now has some old Swastika banner he
bought from a real vet hanging on his wall, along with a caseful of phony
medals? - HC]
Dr. McCarron called Steinfeld a liar and a charlatan and turned all the
documents in the case over to the district attorney, recommending that
Steinfeld be prosecuted for perjury and murder. He also denounced Steinfeld
to the newspapers and publicly stated his view that Arnold Schuessler had
been murdered. In response he received an official order from the district
attorney to make no more public comment on the case. Several nights later,
to emphasize the serious nature of the warning, a small bomb blew the front
door off McCarron's house.
But there was at least some belated justice. Several days after the inquest
closed, Leon Steinfeld fled the country. He flew to Switzerland for a "rest
cure" and one morning was found hanging in his hotel room, an alleged
suicide. Jewish newspaper columnist Irv Kupcinet established a "sympathy
fund" and shortly thereafter presented Arnold Schuessler's widow, the
mother of the murdered children, with $100,000 raised from Chicago's Jewish
community---an immense sum of money in 1955-56, worth easily a couple of
million today, and a very strange gesture for Jews to make to a Gentile
crime victim, a German at that, unless it was to buy silence.
There may have been one final murder connected with this ghastly case.
British author Arnold Leese was provided with massive amounts of news
clippings and information, including a transcript of the inquest, by his
correspondents in Chicago, and he was at work on a definitive account of
the Schuessler case as one of the best documented incidents of Jewish
ritual murder in modern times when he suddenly died in the spring of 1956.
None of the Schuessler papers, which he had been working on and which he
showed to a number of friends and visitors, were found anywhere in his
possession when his effects were inventoried after his death. The last
loose end was tied up.
One looks at those sad little faces on the milk cartons today, and one
can't help but wonder...

You should have included your comments which provoked the remark
of Sheleen. Not to say Sheleen is right or wrong, but it's clear
you were the one who deleted the context of Sheleen's comments,

It takes an above average IQ for a Dutchman. The same IQ is below
average every where else in the world.

My impression is that this thread is based on the piece about Jewish
ritual murder in chicago that Mr. Covington periodically reposts. If I
recall, he claims that his account draws from the book _Getting away with
murder_, about a number of unsolved murders mostly in the chicago area. In
one sense he is right: the book discusses murders that took place in 1957
or so to the people he mentions. But the book itself makes no mention of
anyone believing it to be "Jewish ritual murder," and only one reference
to the murders possibly being ritualistic in any way. I know Covington
would probably say this is because the authors fear the Jewish Conspiracy,
but the fact remains that Covington woulds have had to have gotten his
information on the alleged jewish angle the old-fashioned way: by making
it up. Or by relying on sources he fails for some reason to mention.
In any case, anyone onsidering whether to believe this story or not should
check Mr. Covington's sources, or lack thereof.
Also, it is disingenuous for Mr Phillips to compare allegations of Jewish
ritual murder with proven instances of Mexican santeria-related ritual
murders. No one is saying that these murders are central to being Mexican,
or even central to santeria. On the other hand, Mr. Phillips and others
are saying that this alleged practise is central to the Jewish religion.
That is quite a different thing, yes?

They would be verifiable if they were facts, but the sources Covington
claims to back up his story do not say what he wants us to think they say.
I believe Inoted this in an earlier post. Please get ahold of the book
_Getting away with murder_ and read the relevant chapters before you
assert that Covington's account is in any way factual beyond the fact that
these people were murdered by *someone.* Oh yeah, the part about the
Packard is true too, but that seems to be all.
Also, the book mentions absolutely nothing about the Jewish community
giving the families of the victims money for any reason. Now in your
view--and Covington's-- this book may itself be part of the conspiracy.
But it also appears to be Covington's *only* source of information about
these crimes. And no, I do not count spirits from lost Atlantis as
credible sources, nor do too many other people.

You can drivel what you want, but it still does not explain how anything is
dependent on the observer's placement on the bell curve. I suspect that it's not the
only thing about which you are completely clueless. Typically trollish.

IN saying all that I have said for this thread I have, of course,
presumed the veracity of the original source -- possibly I was naive in
doing so. I don't know.
These are the facts I am assuming ARE facts.
(1) That four children were murdered and murdered in a way that DID NOT
PROVE but was suggestive of Jewish ritual murder, based on historical
accounts of such.
(2) That a newspaper account of the murders --without saying anything
about Jews or about ritual murder- made vague suggestions about
possible "religious cults," or something of that sort. And that these
newspapers --within minutes of their appearing on the newstands were
suddenly and mysterious removed. Who has the power to make such a thing
happen?
(3) That the childrens' father, took his story to the police and --for
his troubles- was railroaded into a mental institution by a corrupt
Jewish sheriff with the connivance of an equally corrupt Jewish
psychiatrist.
(4) that the entire affair would have remained under wraps but for the
heroic efforts of the local coroner.
(5) that the psychiatrist --fearing the jig was up-- fled to
Switzerland, where he later died under mysterious circumstances.
(6) that a payment of $100,000 was made to the family of the victims.
======================================
Are you categorically denying any of these facts?

To believe that:

* " only people with an above-average IQ are aware of X "
are equal statements is the result of a mental defect.

I see posts everywhere suggesting that Catholics should apologize and
repent for the part played by some Catholics in the Holocaust. Jewish
groups expressed dissapointment that the recent statement by the Pope
failed to admit guilt on the part of the Catholic Church for war crimes,
real or imagined, committed by the Nazis, some of whom may have been
Catholics, during WWII. Does not the same principle apply to such
accusations?
I'm saying they aren't even hinted at in the single source Mr. Covington
mentions.

It is hard to avoid the inference that the Jews have pretty much set
themselves at odds with Western Civilization, generally. They maintain
that the only proper posture for the Western world is for everyone in it
to perpetually walk the earth with their heads hung in shame over the
(allegedly) horrible things done to the Jews in World War II.
And no amount of self-abasement will satisfy them because it only whets
their appetites for more.

Mr. Anonymous is confusing apples and oranges. The crimes mentioned
are very real, and not at all imagined, but they are not the crimes of
individual Catholics. The crime is that of the Catholic Church
hierarchy, including the pope, in failing to protest Nazi crimes.
The pope of the time allowed the Nazis to round up Italian Jews for
deportation without the slightest peep. A glaring contrast to its
modern practice of speaking out against injustice.
Richard G. Philllips takes advantage of this confusion to inject his
brand of ignorance and venom:
It is hard to avoid the inference that the Jews have pretty much
set themselves at odds with Western Civilization, generally.
On the contrary, it is hard to prove "that the Jews have pretty much
set themselves at odds with Western Civilization," as Mr. Phillips
demonstrates by not providing any.
They maintain that the only proper posture for the Western world
is for everyone in it to perpetually walk the earth with their
heads hung in shame over the (allegedly) horrible things done to
the Jews in World War II.
Not at all! Only Mr. Phillips maintains such absurdities! They are
the strawmen that he attacks because he cannot find anything to attack
in the real position that Jews take. For example, he ignores the
memorials at Yad VaShem that commemorate the righteous gentiles who
aided Jews in escaping the Nazis.
And no amount of self-abasement will satisfy them because it
only whets their appetites for more.
The truth is that no amount of lies and insults will ever satisfy
Mr. Phillip's bizarre need to abuse the Jewish people for our
alleged sins and crimes.

The principle stated in the original post, as I understood it, was that
one should not blame members of a group for wrongs committed by others in
the group. Your response suggests that you feel criticism of the present
Catholic heirarchy is justified because in your opinion the leaders of
fifty years ago did not do enough to stop the Nazis. Moreover, you appear
to think the Church should opologize for all present day catholics.
Whether its colored orange or apple-red, bigotry is bigotry.

And, as Mr. Katz pointed out, you are missing the point of the
controversy.

You are misrepresenting the position of the critics of the report. Criticism of
the present Catholic heirarchy is made (my those who make it) because of what is
thought to be an improper rationalization of the failure to act.
> Moreover, you appear
> to think the Church should opologize for all present day catholics.
You are again misstating Mr. Katz's statements. The Catholic Church is an
institution. The question is not even what that institution did -- it remained silent --
but whether that was the right or wrong thing to do.

Totally untrue. The disappointment expressed is based -- with the admitted
failure of the Catholic Church as an institution to take some action -- on the
justification the Pope gave for this failure to act.

So this statement is stupid because _you_ weren't aware of the fact that
"(...)one needs to download and read a particular posting in order to check whether
it was worth downloading in the first place." Don't make me laugh...

You seem to be unable to comprehend a simple statement. The fact that all people
with above average intelligence know something does not mean that all the people
who know that something have above average intelligence. Unless one uses village
idiot logic...
Andrzej Borowiec
Well, perhaps we are reading different newspapers. The one I read
quotes David Blumenthal, professor of Jewish studies at Emory U. as having
said the Pope's document should have been "a call to penitence." Rabbi
David Goldsein of Touro Synagogue said the Church did go far enough
examining "its own role in the Holocaust." To suggest that the Church
played a role in the Holocaust and should feel penitent is nothing if not
bigotry.

Here is what Pope John Paul II has stated about the participation of
Catholics in the Holocaust:
"[The Church should] express profound regret for the weakness of of so
many of her sons and daughters who sullied her face, preventing her from fully
mirroring the image of her crucified Lord, the supreme witness of patient love and of
human weakness." Apostolic Letter of September 24, 1994 "As the Third Millenium
Draws Near"
Here is what one spokesman for the Catholic Church has stated:
"It was in this spirit [referring to "As the Third Millenium Draws Near] that my
brother bishops in Germany, on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the liberation
of Auschwitz-Birkenau, issued a statement in which they took responsibility for the
failure of the Catholic community during the Shoah. While mindful of the exemplary
behavior certain individuals and groups, some of whom I have already named, the
German bishops acknowledged that 'Christians did not offer due resistance the rcial
anti-Semitism. Many times there was failure and guilt among Catholics.' And they go
on to ass a point with which I wholeheartedly concur: 'The practical sincereity of our
will of renewal is also linked to the confession of this guilt and the willingness to
painfully learn from this history of guilt . . . '" John Cardinal Bernadin March 23, 1995
It should be noted that the archdiocese of Chicago considers this statement
of such continuing importance that it is included as part of their website.
I feel there was quite a bit of disappointment that the recent statement of
the Church seemed to excuse the Pope's failure to take moral leadership for the failure
to act. The failure was excused in the statement on the ground that it was not
practical. While I have a certain sympathy with point of view, many thought it denied
the the role of the Church as a moral leader. Many were also disappointed because
the statement was critical of the role of the U.S. and Great Britain, partly for failing to
take moral leadership.

As the statement did not go as far as Pope John Paul II and other leaders
have in the past, his criticism is, at least, an arguable position.

Pope John Paul II is an anti-Catholic bigot?
John Cardinal Bernadin was an anti-Catholic bigot?
The Congress of German Bishops are anti-Catholic bigots?
Echoing the statement of the leaders of the Catholic Church is "bigotry?"
Suggest you take two aspirin and smell the coffee.
Similarly, criticizing the Catholic church for its actions is in no
way a criticism of every Catholic. And vice versa: the fact that
some priests have molested altar boys in no way makes it part of
Catholic theology for priests to molest altar boys.
this is a crucial point which you cannot seem to grasp.

It's not bigotry at all to state that you feel a certain organization
acted in a reprehensible way and should now apologize. At best you
could say you find it unwarranted, but of course it's not bigotry.
America-- as a government-- formally apologized not too long ago
for the treatment of Japanese Americans during WWII. It was not bigotry
that requested or prompted the apology, nor was it bigotry to
criticize the American government of the present for its failure to
acknowledge wrongdoings of the past government.
You seem to think asking an organization to take responsibility
for its past actions is bigotry. It isn't.

Nor does he seem to recognize the point that the criticisms of the recent

Mr. Anonymous is still confused. Yes, I do feel that criticism of the
leadership of the Catholic Church is entirely justified, because they
do not represent the individual Catholics so much as they represent the
church as an institution. As an institution, until the hierarchy
acknowledges policies that were set for it by previous administrations
and repudiates them, the Catholic Church can be said to stand by the
decisions and actions of previous hierarchs.
Moreover, you appear to think the Church should opologize for
all present day catholics.
No, that is not true. The Catholic Church need only apologize for
its own institutional mistakes, not for its individual members. The
only obligation the Church has to its members is to instruct them
not to behave in the future as they were erroneously instructed to
behave in the past.

Which I did not do. I stated that various members of the Catholic
hierarchy, including Pope John Paul II -- a man qualifed to speak both of the crimes
of the nazis and the position of the Catholic Church -- has made certain statements
including one in which he states that it is an obligation "to express profound regret
for the weaknesses of so many of her sons and daughters who sullied her face . . "
I think that it is perfectly fair to compare those sentiments to the contents of the
current statement.
Personally I have no differences with the facts stated in the recent
statement. I also agree with the statement as to the possible effects had Pope Pius
XII attempted a different course of conduct.
======================================================================
Phillips
If the Catholic church is now admitting the factuality of the Holocaust,
it may be
because they genuinely believe that to be the case or it may be that
they realize that
it would be extremely impolitic for it to take any other position.
In any event, it settles nothing with me. I am interested only in
verifiable physical evidence.
For me it settles nothing what the Catholic church believes or what Yale
Edeiken believes or
what Steve Mock belives.

An odd statement. People who believe in overwhelming evidence are
not being "logical" or "rational." Face it. Those who deny the Holocaust are
crackpots just as those who deny the effectiveness of modern medicine are
crackpots.

The try and conform to "fairly lucid English" the facts. According to the

To suggest that the Catholic Church as an organization played a role
in the Holocaust is bigotry. Demanding an official apology from the
Catholic Church for the role it played in the Holocaust is an accusation
that the Catholic Church as an organization played a role in the
Holocaust. Perhaps you're right--bigotry may be too mild a term.
One poster recently posted some of the statements of church
officials expressing regret for the actions of some catholics. I
understand one of the bishops went so far as to agree that catholics
should repent. Most Catholics disagree with that position. Far too many
young Catholic lives were wasted in that foolish war.
The church leaders who made those statements failed to realize that
the normal human compassion is wasted on bigots, it can even be dangerous,
like trying to pet a snake.
One has to wonder what motives drive some Jewish leaders to demand more.

There in no mistaking the bigotry in your post. Your claim that the
Church is responsible for actions of some individuals during the war
because of erroneous instructions on behavior reveals your deep hatred for
Catholicism, and your ignorance of the teachings of the Church. The
Church made no mistakes, institutional or otherwise, and has nothing to
apologize for; that was confirmed by its loyal members who showed their
courage in ways too numerous to list. Millions of brave young Catholics
died in that foolish war, many more Catholics than Jews, and your baseless
accusations against their church is a deliberate insult to them, as well
as to all living Catholics.

I responded:

In his latest post, Mr. Phillips opines:

"Quite a few!" So many, in fact, that Mr. Phillips cannot name
a single one! My personal observation is that racism and anti-Semitism
are tolerated and defended in tenured professors in the name of academic
freedom.
Academs is not a cloistered institution apart from the real
world and dedicated to a Search for Truth. It is a very human
institution where power politics and intimidation are far from
unknown.
Mr. Phillips' cynicism is not proof of anything more than his bile.
He believes with this verbal sleight-of-hand he can make the need
for solid evidence vanish in a puff of smoke. He has made a serious
charge, hoping that all of his bluster will divert attention from the
fact that he cannot present a single, solitary shred of evidence
to back up his slander.
My last post concluded:
They [the facts] have not been accepted by a tiny minority of
crackpots, which includes Mr. Phillips as one of their shining
lights.
Which leads Mr. Phillips to this brilliant observation:
I have remarked before that Jews customarily resort to talk of
that sort whenever people say things that make them
uncomfortable.
That is very true indeed. When people like Mr. Phillips post slanderous
lies, it does indeed make me "uncomfortable" and I do "resort to talk of
that sort," that is the sort that exposes the lies to the light of
truth.
They make a big parade of being "logical" and "rational." The
truth is that they are nothing of the kind.
The question is not whether or not Jews are logical, but whether or not
Mr. Phillips is logical. By the way he rapidly changed the subject
one might think he had misgivings.

There in no mistaking the bigotry in your post.
There is no mistking that Mr. Anonymous is intent on picking a quarrel
with me.
Your claim that the Church is responsible for actions of some
individuals during the war because of erroneous instructions on
behavior reveals your deep hatred for Catholicism, and your
ignorance of the teachings of the Church.
I will grant that I may ignorant of specific Church teachings, and if
the Church never taught anything wrong I certainly applaud them. If
I did not make myself clear in my last post, I did not mean to imply
that the Church had issued erroneous instructions. What I meant was
that I did not hold individual Catholics responsible if they were
led astray by Church doctrine. It is interesting that Mr. Anonymous
seized on my defense of individual Catholics and twisted it around
to fit his preconceived notion of my supposed bigotry. This does not
reveal any "deep hatred" of Catholicism on my part, but a deep hatred
of Jews on the part of Mr. Anonymous.
The Church made no mistakes, institutional or otherwise, and has
nothing to apologize for;...
That I do not agree with. Even if the Church did not instruct its
members erroneously, the hierarchy did ignore what was going on
under the very nose of the pope.
...that was confirmed by its loyal members who showed their courage in
ways too numerous to list. Millions of brave young
Catholics died in that foolish war, many more Catholics than
Jews,...
I am surprised that Mr. Anonymous does not use the obvious argument,
that many brave Catholics, young and old, risked their lives to help
save Jews from the Nazi slaughter, and many of these are memorialized
at Yad VaShem in Israel.
...and your baseless accusations against their church is a
deliberate insult to them, as well as to all living Catholics.
Some of my best friends are Catholic and none of them are insulted.

Odd that they would chose to avoid the "politically impolitic" choice by
making a statement that was politically impolotic.

Excuse me, Mr. Know-It-All, but it's the KKKristians who are inbred. In some US
States, a marriage isn't valid if the couple aren't at least first cousins. (And the
phrase "hate-mongers anti-Semites are lying" IS A DENIAL, you illiterate bonehead!)

Yes - the fact that people would revive such ancient, long-ago-disproved lies

both) to instantly believe them.

Trust you to deliberately overlook the fact that the made-up murders were
supposed to be so that we could incorproare the blood into our matzahs - which
would be ridiculous in light of the fact that that we are enjoined from ever
incorporating blood into any part of our diet! it has nothing to do with
following extant rules ("Thou shalt not murder"), it has to do with common
sense - hence you missing it.

I guess that's because you're talking about a subset of an ethnic group, as
opposed to an entire religion. The correct analogy - which you doubtless know,
but are deliberately missing - would be for all the *Satanists* to be screaming
all over the Internet that it is impossible. But since "Satanism" delights in
these sorts of things, no, you aren't going to see it.
You'll really have to do better than this.

Yes - Jew-hating bigots try very hard to make sure people can't find out that
what they claim to be ancient Jewish writings are actually more recent
Jew-hating bigot writings - rather like the famed piece of stupidity,
"Protocols of the Elders of Zion."

You totally missed the hypocrisy in your statement, didn't you? A guy insults you

statement about two groups of people being hyperbolic.
ROTFL!
====================================================
PHillips
The only thing that was "politically impolitic" or "politically
incorrect" about the Pope's statement is that it did not go quite far
ENOUGH in satisfying
Jews' never-ending and insatiable demands for self-abasement in
non-Jews.

Why would you say such vicious things about all Christians!
Are you an anti-christian bigot?
I am sure you call for "religious tolerance" but do not practice it
yourself. This is called being "two-faced" in case you do not
comprehend the concept.

In a few isolated cases, possibly; in general, no. For example, I
imagine that such views would be tolerated at the Bob Junes University
in North Carolina (where Jews are not so much as admitted) but,
generally speaking, I would say no.

============================================================
Phillips
Slander, Phillips' "bile," indeed?
Dear Friend Katz:
Are you denying that university professors have frequently been denied
tenure and even fired for holding racist or anti-Jewish views, thus
creating an atmosphere where professors quickly realize that they had
better toe the establishment line?
--If you are merely PRETENDING to doubt this, then I must accuse you of
being less than truthful.
--If you GENUINELY doubt this, then I would have to accuse you of just
not knowing how the world runs.
I would add one more thing. Speaking generally, the Jews would be
better served by backing off just a bit in their arrogance and
self-righteousness, by occasionally admitting the possibility that
someone who bad-mouths them just might be coming from an honest place.
You would be better served by seriously looking into the question of
just WHY it is that, in the course of your history, you have been
expelled from just about every European country, duchy, principality in
which you have ever lived. And when I say "seriously" looking into the
matter, I am not talking about the writing of silly books on the "root
causes of anti-Semitism" whose only purpose is to cut your opponents
down to size.

As critical as I have been of the Church for its relative inaction in
respect of the Holocaust (and I should point out that I am Catholic), I
think a couple of points need to be made.
First, the statement by Pope John Paul was an accurate description of
the failings of many Catholics (and many Christians for that matter) and
makes it clear that their participation in the acts of the Holocaust was
wrong, immoral and painful to the ideal that every Christian should have
- to imitate Christ. At the same time, inaction was also wrong.
Coupled with an unfettered apology for those failings, it should be
accepted as that.
That being said, it would be unfair, and inaccurate, to lump all
Catholics together and assign blame to every Catholic. The failings of
a single Pope, real and imagined, do not impugn the entire Church, and I
wonder what anyone else would have done in the same situation. The
Church as an institution bears guilt for having failed in its Christian
duty, and I believe that is what the Pope was trying to address. I
would be interested to know how many other institutions, equally or more
"guilty" have apologized.
While in no way trying to minimize or explain away the failings of the
Church during the Holocaust, we would be well-advised to remember that
other institutions and countries and assemblies sat idly by as Jews were
murdered in the millions. Many others participated in the massacres,
and otherwise aided and abetted the Nazis. No one is guiltless in this
case, and we should avoid the temptation to find scapegoats rather than
face up to our own failings.
I believe it would be a bit much to expect the current Pope to publicly
condemn Pope Pius XII, who although far too inactive (and I have been
one of his most severe critics), nonetheless faced a situation that I
hope never to face. I shall not cast the first stone.

I agree completely. I wonder though if America and Britain and France
and Canada and many other countries have apologized for their refusal to
admit so many desperate Jewish refugees prior to and at the beginning of
the War?

Mr. Phillips, the Pope was aware that the exterminations were taking
place.

Miss Cohen reveals once again that certain Jews regard themselves as special;
they NEED to scream louder than anybody else. Hasn't it occurred to you that
if you weren't so borish you wouldn't experience so much "anti-Semitism"?

I suppose the Jews should come to their masters - you and your ilk - and
beg forgiveness for your antisemitism? Since Mr. Katz is too refined to
answer such a statement in language you understand, allow me to take his
place.
Go fuck yourself.

More evidence, as if any were required, that Mr. Phillips hasn't the
slightest clue of the purpose or underlying theological implications of
the Pope's statement.

I suppose that is why the Pope is planning a visit to Israel in 2000?

Before you accuse the then-Pope (Pius XII) of failing to speak
out against the exterminations, wouldn't it be a good idea to
first establish the fact that these exterminations were in fact
taking place.
This seems to be a topic of hot controversy on this NG. Until it
is an accepted fact you are hardly in a position to fault the
Catholic church (or any institution) of complicity in it.
I responded:
Mr. Phillips must be using a definition of the word "accepted"
that has not made it into any of the standard dictionaries of
the English language, yet. The facts of the Holocaust have been
accepted by the overwhelming majority of bona fide historians.
In his next post, Mr. Phillips opined:
By bona fide historians, I take it you mean academic historians
or mainstream historians - OK? Well, it is true that the usual
notions of the Holocaust are accepted by the overwhelming
majority of acamdemic historians and there is a very good reason
for it. If they did NOT accept it and could not keep their
beliefs to themselves, they would very soon cease to BE academic
historians - as quite a few have found to their sorrow.
Which I challenged:
"Quite a few!" So many, in fact, that Mr. Phillips cannot name
a single one!
In his latest post, Mr. Phillips redoubles his empty bluff and bluster:
HOw many (alleged) victims of gassing at Auschwitz can YOU name?
I could go to any halfway decent library and find many names. Or I
could speak with friends of my parents and find many names that might
not have made it into print. But in either case it would not change the
fact that Mr. Phillips cannot name a single, solitary professor who
has suffered in this way in spite of the fact that he claims there are
"quite a few" of them.
Mr. Phillips continues:
Dear Friend Katz:
Please! Mr. Phillips is no friend of mine. He is merely trying to
pump up his authority artificially by employing this condescending tone.
He continues:
Are you denying that university professors have frequently been
denied tenure and even fired for holding racist or anti-Jewish
views, thus creating an atmosphere where professors quickly
realize that they had better toe the establishment line?
I will go Mr. Phillips one better! I can name an American university
professor who openly espouses Holocaust denial, and is not only
tenured, but has a website devoted to denial provided free of charge
by the university that employs him. His name is Arthur Butz.
Having put his foot into his own mouth, Mr. Phillips proceeds to shove
it further down his throat until it is firmly lodged:
--If you are merely PRETENDING to doubt this, then I must accuse
you of being less than truthful.
--If you GENUINELY doubt this, then I would have to accuse you
of just not knowing how the world runs.
Mr. Phillips is certainly free with his accusations. First he accuses
reputable academics of knuckling under to some nebulous political cabal,
though he cannot offer a shred of evidence to back it up. When I point
this out he accuses me of either cupidity or naivete. Only this
time he made an ass of himself as I have provided evidence to support
my claims (even without "knowing how the world runs!").
Mr. Phillips blithely rambles on:
I would add one more thing. Speaking generally, the Jews would
be better served by backing off just a bit in their arrogance
and self-righteousness,...
Mr. Phillips has some chutzpah, complaining of Jewish arrogance after
backing up his own accusations against reputable historians with the
smug announcement above that he "knows how the world runs!"
...by occasionally admitting the possibility that someone who
bad-mouths them just might be coming from an honest place.
This cuts both ways. Mr. Phillips might admit that when Jews bad-mouth
him we are also "coming from an honest place."
He continues:
You would be better served by seriously looking into the
question of just WHY it is that, in the course of your history,
you have been expelled from just about every European country,
duchy, principality in which you have ever lived.
We have, and, of course, for every two Jews who have looked into this
question there are three opinions. My own humble opinion is that in
"every European country, duchy, principality" from which Jews were
expelled, it was engineered by powerful people who stood to gain from
expropriating, that is stealing, Jewish property.
Mr. Phillips concludes:
And when I say "seriously" looking into the matter, I am not
talking about the writing of silly books on the "root
causes of anti-Semitism" whose only purpose is to cut your
opponents down to size.
Personally, I never read the books that attempt to analyze the root
causes of anti-Semitism because I am not interested.
But let's step back and take a long view of what Mr. Phillips has
said. Basically, when challenged to name any academics who have
suffered as a result of espousing Holocaust denial or racism, he
accuses me of lying or being naive and then proceeds to lecture me
on the "arrogance and self-righteous" nature of Jews. In other words,
I have some nerve as a Jew to challenge him to prove his slanderous
accusations, and I ought to hold my tongue in the presence of my
betters. Now that might serve Mr. Phillips very well, but I fail to
see how "Jews would be better served" by following this servile advice.

Harry Katz
It is quite true: I cannot name a single one, although if I were
prepared to undertake the effort I think I could find a few. In any
event, my being temporarily at a loss on the question does not establish
the fact that such disciplining has never taken place. I argue on the
basis that academia is an institution not completely unlike other large
institutions: army, government, corporate, media, and that in any large
institution a newcomer soon finds that there is a prevailing mind-set,
and if he wishes to advance in that institution he is well-advised to
either adopt that prevailing mind-set or at least to affect to do so.
To research the matter would be extremely difficult because academia
--like all other large institutions-- is not inclined to expose its
internal politics to public view. So you learn that former Asst
Professor X got the chop from the University of Y and you suspect it was
on account of his political views. Should you attempt to look into the
matter, if they tell you anything at all (which I doubt) it will more
likely be that he was fired for some academic inadequacy such as an
insufficient volume of publications.
Sorry if I have spoiled your roar of triumph: ("Phillips can't name a
single one.")

=======================================================
Phillips
The first thing I will say is that to cite one professor (Butz) who has
NOT been fired for offbeat pollitics is hardly a convincing argument
that NONE have been fired (or denied tenure) for that cause.
But let me take up the case of Butz. Can you tell me which came first:
his tenure or his offbeat politics? I am inclined to think that the
tenure came first - otherwise it probably would NOT have come at all.
Anyway, now that he HAS the tenure, the university authorities probably
realize that to attempt to fire him could involve them in a court battle
that would be washing their dirty linen in public, something they would
much prefer to avoid.
Sorry if I have spoiled your second brilliant point.

I am not one of your "betters" because I am not anybody's "better."
What I am is a very run-of-the-mill American who is enraged by the
gradual and inexorable destruction of the America I grew up in, of our
sense of nation and of race. Jews are hardly the sole actuators of this
but they are very much a part of it.
You have seen that rage on this NG. You would do well to take heed of
it.
