Two Jewish Principles leading to Calamity

The principle that human beings are evil by nature, and the principle that such view compels them to haggle over everything, made it impossible for the Jews to forge a normal sort of existence for themselves, and impossible for others to accommodate them for any length of time.

These two principles, the interplay between them and their consequences come out clearly in the article that was written by Dennis Ross under the title: “Preserving the JCPOA Means Sending Iran the Right Deterrent Signals,” posted on the website of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy on July 6, 2016.

Ross begins his current argument by pointing out that “last year's arguments were intense and politicized … the claims for and against were exaggerated.” He goes on to describe a situation that clearly shows we didn't have an exercise in democracy last year; we had an indication as to how useless Jewish haggling can get. He goes on to make points for the current argument, and closes with a series of “Policy Recommendations” that amount to nothing more than the same old Jewish haggling.

In fact, Ross sets the stage early on for those recommendations with this passage: “Closing the path to a nuclear bomb depends … on U.S. readiness to make them [the Iranians] pay a high price if they cheat. It is essential that they understand the high price of violations.” Here, the writer depends on the principle that human beings are evil, and speculates that the Iranians will cheat. He thus resolves that they must be deterred from choosing that path. So you ask: What's wrong with this approach?

What's wrong is that it stands in contradiction to the Common Law practice – devised by civilized people and based on real life experiences – to the effect that you do not impose prior restraint on someone because everyone is presumed innocent till proven guilty. When you begin with this premise, you let the debaters probe for common ground among them, an approach that makes possible a compromise that should satisfy all sides.

In contrast, the Jewish way of tackling the issues reduces every argument to a haggle that leads to polarization because each side – fearing the other – is forced to hunker down and freeze in their corner. In turn, this development causes the paralysis of the business at hand instead of moving it forward … just like the Congress.

In fact, that situation is the reason why the Jews cannot live together without having a real or imagined enemy to “threaten” their existence, thus keep them huddled around their leaders. They either live in ghettos with concrete walls that keep them besieged the way they did in Europe. Or they live in an artificial enclave such as Israel while moaning they are about to be exterminated by the people they are themselves trying to exterminate.

The new experiment is to live in a tolerant society the way they do in America, a place where they hijacked the media and used it to maintain the country in a state of informational ghetto. It is a place where a physical wall is no longer necessary to keep the rank and file in line. Consequently, the Jewish leaders are expected to have it their way till such time that someone will run out of patience and do something no one can as yet predict.

This being the culture that animates the Jewish leader Dennis Ross, he asks: “Should Americans have confidence that everything is being done to signal Iran about the consequences of potential violations?” And he offers: “Unfortunately, the answer appears to be no.” In case it escaped you, this is a typical formulation of the Jewish method of haggling. Like he says, the answer “appears” to be “no” with regard to violations that are not real but “potential.” In terms of laying out the facts, nothing can be vaguer than that. And yet, the policy response that Dennis Ross recommends is definitive and threatening. Here is how he put it:

“The next administration will need to bolster deterrence ...It should toughen U.S. declaratory policy … It is essential that Tehran and the international community become accustomed to the reality that violation will trigger force, not sanctions … The basic mindset must be 'fulfill the obligation or face penalty'”.

This being the recommendation of Dennis Ross, the next administration should reject it and should consider that America and the world were lucky the current administration junked the Jewish mentality and governed the nation by relying on facts that were gathered by professionals, not on speculations expressed by ideologues whose ideas were fished out the cesspool of Jewish speculations.
