Sweet Dreams Of The Weekly Standard


There was a time not long ago when I wrote about the Jewish moral syphilis being ejaculated in the heads, the hearts and the souls of the unwary American people. I was criticized so severely for going “over the top,” I felt uneasy about it, and wondered if I had not said more than I should. But then the Weekly Standard came to the rescue and relieved me of my unease. It did so by demonstrating in concrete terms that I had not gone over the top but was on the money.

I owe my thanks to Lee Smith who is a senior editor at the Weekly Standard. He was the one to buttress my theory about Jewish moral syphilis – something he did by publishing an article in the February 18, 2013 edition of the magazine. The article comes under the title: “Egypt against Itself” and the subtitle: “A society on the edge of chaos.” It is a compilation of everything that a writer can do wrong to show how the Jewish propaganda machine can score big at the start of every campaign, but then fumbles the causes it champions and brings about the nefarious consequences that follow.

Smith takes two paragraphs at the start of the article to paint the background upon which he will draw a sketch of Egypt. It is a sketch that will scream: “Jewish moral syphilis” with every stroke of the pen. Here is a taste of the first introductory paragraph: “...now Egypt … is toppling. Street violence has pitted various groups against each other – anarchists against Islamists, policemen against protesters … and has left scores dead.”

Given what you see in the world nowadays, and given what you know about revolutions – bygone and contemporary – you expect that the author will elaborate to show how the confrontations in the streets of Egypt are causing the unprecedented death and destruction of which he seems to allude. With a population that is 4 times the size of Iraq and 3 times the size of America at the time it had its own revolution, you expect to be shown that the confrontations in Egypt are causing more deaths than the triple car bombings taking place in Iraq on a weekly basis, or the hundreds of thousands who died during the American civil war.

But the fact is that the number of dead in Egypt during its two years of revolution has been a fraction the number who still die in Iraq every week – ten years after the American-led change of regime in that country. And the number in Egypt has been a fraction of a fraction the number that died in the American revolution where 564,000 Americans perished on both sides in a population that totaled 32 million people at the time.

Had Egypt had the same ratio, it would have lost 1.5 million dead people, not the 1000 or less that it did. This means that, all factors being equal, there have been 1,500 dead Americans for every dead Egyptian. This is a fifteen hundred to one ratio. Thus, you can see that Lee Smith has done a marvelous job at forcing these facts to come out, however clumsy may have been the process he employed.

To go further in assessing the impact of the Egyptian revolution, we see that the American city of Chicago alone murders more people today – in peace time – than all of Egypt murders in a revolutionary time even though it has nearly 30 times the population of Chicago. To be clear, Lee Smith could not have done a better job to show what the ejaculated Jewish moral syphilis can do to the mind of gullible Americans, be they the ordinary people in the street, the journalists or the politicians. And there is still more to be said in this regard because there is a second introductory paragraph to discuss.

Here is how that one goes: “The economy is hemorrhaging reserves and incapable of securing foreign investment, while Egypt's currency tumbles to record lows.” Well, I would need to write a ten thousand word essay to show why this is the fantasy of economic illiterates. But having published several articles on economics making this point and a few other ones, I leave it to the interested readers to look at them in the archives of this website. All I would say now is that the economy of Egypt is not hemorrhaging reserves because the banks are flush with money in the local currency. As to the foreign reserves, a great deal remains in the country in private hands while the Central Bank uses what it has to regulate the exchange rate, and to maintain the desired balance between the various national objectives. It is what central bankers do all over the world.

And the one thing that the world is certain about is that Egypt is not suffering from a fiscal cliff the way that America is, and it does not need a bailout the size of Greece to come out of its ditch. Do you know how and why the world knows this? It knows it because Egypt has 8 times the population of a Greece that required 300 billion dollars to be rescued. At that rate, Egypt would have required 2.4 trillion dollars – but to do what? Nobody has an answer to this question because Egypt does not need to be rescued. In fact, all that Egypt has required so far was exactly equal to zero dollars.

The remarkable thing is that despite its ongoing revolution, the country has not had a recession. Yes, the economy did slow down a bit as did the rest of the world. It is now picking up again, and doing so in tandem with the rest of the world. To the sane people who know how to avoid the Jewish moral syphilis, there is nothing alarming in this situation. To be brutally honest about it, life is more normal in Egypt than it is in the US Congress or on the streets of Chicago. Think about it; think how the Congress would look like if it stopped kicking the can down the road and solved the fiscal cliff problem once and all. And think about it; think if the murder rate in Chicago dropped down to one murder every two and a half years. That's one murder every two and a half years not the 650 of them each and every year. Would this not look good on you, America? Well, my friend, this is the true image of Egypt, not the Jewish syphilis that the Weekly Standard is ejaculating with every stroke of the pen.

With this in mind, you go through the rest of the article only to realize that the author uses the same approach to pick what he sees as being good in Egypt, and spin it in such a way as to make it look like a bad thing. For example, he makes it sound like the IMF suspended the talks on a 4.8 billion dollars loan when, in fact, it was Egypt that asked for a postponement. Also, after spending 30 years hammering on the previous regime to denigrate Egypt, he and those like him are now lauding the old regime – but for what purpose? To denigrate the current regime which they see as the proxy that represents Egypt. More about this later.

Another thing the author does is continue to repeat a fallacy that everyone else has dropped. They dropped it because it was shown that of the three most obese countries in the World; Egypt was one – the other two being the United States and Germany. But Smith continues to say that Egypt cannot feed itself while conscious of the fact that the Judeo-Israeli begging machine continues to beg the Christians of America, asking them to donate 25 dollars each to feed the poor in Israel. And the author of the article says what he says without mentioning that the Muslim countries surrounding Israel, including Egypt, are the ones now feeding the Jews of Israel the way they have done it throughout history.

Another thing that Lee Smith does in the article is show how adept he is at picking up on a new trend when it is started by people of his ilk. What has been happening lately is that the Judeo-Israeli propaganda machine began to engage in the formation of idle daydreams in the hope that this will bring about what Smith and his likes could not realize by another method. What these people do now is suggest to those they hate how they can do it to themselves and why they must. If the people of the propaganda machine can do so, they will talk directly to the person they have targeted, which is what they did with Chuck Hagel. They told him to take himself out of the race. When he did not, they told the President to withdraw the nomination.

But if they are talking to a people, such as the Egyptian people, who could not care less about them, they switch to daydreaming the idle dreams. Here is how Smith is doing it this time: “...the last two years have shown that ... a coup might leave the army split ... and fighting itself ... Muslims against Christians. The regime and its security services against its own people. Urban against rural. Secularists against Islamists. Muslim Brotherhood against Salafists.” He makes it sound like this is happening now but if this were true, there would be as many dead people in Egypt as there are in Chicago. And Lee Smith would be drinking champagne with his buddies – yet, they are not.

Seemingly bored and tired of himself by now, Smith does something that no one has done before. He comes right out and admits that the attacks conducted by the Jewish propaganda machine against Egypt's former and current leaders were not really directed at these people. He now says that the attacks were directed at the “Egyptian society itself.” The truth is that every Jewish attack conducted against someone has been an attack against all of humanity. It is the irrefutable truth that Judaism cannot coexist on equal terms with the human race. The Jewish leaders always made sure that when there was an encounter, one of them had to be vanquished. So far, the Jews were the ones to be vanquished; and there is nothing that says it will ever be different.

He is so tired by now he is ready to go to sleep. It is time to down a warm glass of milk and hope to dream an idle dream that is so pleasant he could write home about it when he wakes up. He hopes it will be a dream of this kind: “...a friend from Cairo laments ... that everyone else is gradually acclimating himself to chaos and failure on a massive scale.”

Sweet dream, Lee Smith, have a sweet dream and tell me about it in the morning.
