Posts that I especially recommend for Tuesday, November 23, 2021

In a world where scientific and medical dissent is marginalized, ridiculed or censored, Alliance for Natural Health International and co-hosts at the Westreich Foundation, presented an uncensored conversation chaired by a leading, highly published, U.S. professor of family medicine and public health, Paul Mills, Ph.D.

His guests were world leading cardiologist, Peter McCullough, M.D. MPH FACC, vaccinologist, Geert Vanden Bossche, DVM Ph.D. and our founder, Rob Verkerk MSc DIC PhD FACN. The topic of conversation was nothing less than some of the key issues around COVID-19, mass vaccination and early treatment that have split societies all over the world.

This polarization now threatens social coherence and public trust in governments, health authorities and the medical establishment.

... it has no contemporary relevance but is old-hat, ancient history, stuff for conspiracy-obsessed people with nothing better to do. The general thinking is that the assassination occurred more than a half-century ago, so let’s move on.

Nothing could be further from the truth, for the assassination of JFK is the foundational event of modern American history, the Pandora’s box from which many decades of tragedy have sprung. 
I listening to all three visual recordings of British historian David Irving, and as a result, I've reinforced my conclusion that I reached yesterday in the second post: to respect and listen to the evidence of people with associations (other class orientations, lifestyles, beliefs, etc.) different from my own. I wasn't sufficiently aware that there were two versions of capitalism: the old-fashioned nationally-oriented capitalism and the new neoliberal transnational-oriented version. In reading this post and listening to all of David Irving's speeches, I have reaffirmed my faith in class analysis.

When a former ruling class has been taken over by more recent ruling classes as has happened to the old-fashioned, nationally oriented ruling capitalist class being taken over by the new neoliberal, transnational capitalists, one must take the former's grievances seriously. It was a mild mistake I made to lump the two together as capitalist ruling classes. This was a result of my correct thinking that the two were identical, but different stages of development.

Ron Unz and Paul Craig Roberts, both old-fashioned capitalists, support Irving's WWII history. But where we these two, or similar figures, before the transnational, neoliberal capitalists took over and established the US/British/Zionist Empire? Nowhere to be seen or heard.
 
Here is David Irving, a suppressed historian, who has thoroughly investigated history obtained from primary sources, and as a result has had to ward off the "slings and arrows" which threatened his career as an author and historian. To be sure, nothing I discovered in Irving's history of WWII conflicted with my history that I obtained from primary sources during the 1930s that led up to WWII. Irving's history says nothing about a right-wing capitalist cabal lodged in the Council of Foreign Relations and the State Department conspired to ascend to world domination by taking control of the USA, combining with what was left of the British Empire, carefully constructing a new Empire, and having recently morphed into a transnational capitalist ruling class displacing the old nationally-oriented ruling capitalist classes.
 
If for no other reason, taking into consideration the Zionist occupation of Palestine, their mistreatment of the Palestinians, and the tremendous efforts by Zionist organizations to prohibit any other history of WWII than theirs, etc., one must be extremely doubtful about the history of WWII that was taught to them in public schools. I think that Irving's history of WWII is accurate.
 
Because Irving went to Germany and worked in the steel mills when he was in his early 20s, he had reason to doubt the official sources that portrayed a false history after WWII. He, no doubt, was indoctrinated by the history taught to him in British schools that extolled the British Empire. This attitude of his was reflected in two rather off-hand remarks he made in the videos. I noticed this brief remark in the first video at approximately 1:13:05 (about how he always "considered the British Empire as the great civilizing cultural influences in the world"), and another place in his talks. Apparently Irving thoroughly believed in this version of history taught in British schools, and believed no other ruling class has lied to the general public. Unz and Roberts don't mention this obvious contradiction anywhere because they agree with Irving's complete views about the benevolent influence of the British Empire. They are both pro-capitalists and support the old capitalist ruling classes when capitalism was mostly limited to small businesses.

One must be aware that all of history is written by and for the ruling class. And, that is why everyone should adopt a class analysis, to be conscious of the class structure of societies, ruling classes and their self-serving deceitfulness. With this in mind, one must question the current pandemic, the urgent impositions of vaccinations, and to doubt the reports of government authorities that are under the control of the ruling capitalist class.
 
As to other intellectuals and assorted figures Unz recommends in the 1930s, I would not include Walter Lippmann and Charles Lindbergh among them. Lippmann was a ruling class propagandist and Lindbergh was a fascist who admired prominent Nazis as many other prominent ruling class figures did. I would include historian Charles Beard as a giant among historians. Therefore Unz recommends a mixed bag of writers and other famous figures, and I can only conclude that he is confused as to which class he owes allegiance. I think he is also deceiving himself.
