Haaretz: "In U.S. snooping affair, Israeli firms at risk"

If you were to read the Israeli and American Jewish press, you would get the impression that Israelis and American Jews tend to be well above average in terms of being influential, powerful, and intimately involved in much that's in the news. 

Fortunately, we have the American mainstream media to completely ignore for us overly interesting angles in giant stories, such as Israeli involvement in the current surveillance scandal. Kevin MacDonald points to this June 10, 2013 story from Haaretz:
In U.S. snooping affair, Israeli firms at risk 
Controversy over government surveillance that erupted last week over the NSA's PRISM surveillance program may lead to tougher standards for telecommunications gear like that developed, manufactured in Israel....
Behind the scenes are a host of Israeli companies that have almost certainly taken part in the program as suppliers of technology. They may yet find themselves in the maelstrom, warns Nimrod Kozlovski, head of Tel Aviv University’s program for cyber studies.... 
The concern is not just that the local government is spying on its citizens but that the manufacturers themselves have the ability to spy from afar. 
Telecommunications systems almost always feature components that can be operated remotely so that software can be updated and routine maintenance chores can be conducted. … But these same systems can be used to penetrate the user country’s communications network as well. With the United States at the center of the world’s Internet traffic that problem is magnified. 

Two days earlier, on June 8, 2013, Haaretz (as reprinted in the Jewish Daily Forward of NYC) had headlined:
What was the Israeli involvement in collecting U.S. communications intel for NSA? 
Israeli high-tech firms Verint and Narus have had connections with U.S. companies and Israeli intelligence in the past, and ties between the countries' intelligence agencies remain strong.

So, this kind of thing is interesting and respectable to ask about in Israel, but in the U.S. it's not, except in specifically Jewish publications. Why do you want to know things that Israelis know? What are you, curious? Are you some kind of curiousist? Why are you anti-ignorance?

Why do the Israeli press and presumably cyber companies fear "controversy" "erupting" in a "maelstrom" directed against them? Do they honestly believe the US is going to stand up on its hind legs and roar for the heads of Israeli businessmen? Sure, even paranoids have enemies, but the US isn't a sleeping dog, it's a dead one. There is no maelstrom (polls indicate the US public doesn't care and of course the US govt is quite pleased with what it's doing); nothing will happen. The fear and trembling is overdone.

The main difference between the American Jewish press and the American mainstream media is that the first is the Jewish media in America for Jews while the second is the Jewish media in America for gentiles.

Why do you guys always assume malfeasance whenever Israeli involvement is discovered in anything?

Globalization is slowly erasing national boundaries. Along with that, you are bound to have companies in different nations handling different aspects of your affairs.

You have the Chinese building your gadgets. The Indians handling customer support. Israeli's handling security related jobs, etc.

I think the silver lining in all of this is that Israel is a modern day police state and they are so advance in security/spying related technologies that they are bound to be a leader in the field. So most of these jobs get outsourced to them.

Globalism isn't equal. It involves the entire world but empowers those who control the finance, information, and technology. Surely, Jewish globalists are far more powerful than Bolivian globalists.

Also, we do raise the alarm about foul doings of Chinese. So, why not about Jews, esp when Jews are pushing open borders, the homo agenda, and anti-white propaganda?

To Thomas Meehan: Israel is not run by some committee that decides every action according to some Master Plan. What gets reported and what gets built and what gets sold and what the government does or does not do are decisions made by millions of people millions of times a day. You need to calm down.

People who don't notice aren't going to care - and the post illustrates one of the reasons some don't notice - because it's only mentioned in publications for a particular niche.

Hell, I knew that Israelis were behind it the minute I heard about the tsunami; the Israelis have had tsunami generating tech since 1980. The tsunami generator was perhaps the chief fruit of the Mossad's covert relationship with Cobra Commander. Naturally, the US media have not reported on the Cobra Commander's strong sense of Jewish identity (Kevin MacDonald's piece on how Destro is COBRA's Gentile spokesman is must reading).

Kevin Mac is extreme on some things, but when he reports on this matter but MSM doesn't, doesn't it prove his point that the media are dominated by Jews and Jews manipulate information for their own interests?

Also, what has Sailer got to lose? He's been blacklisted by MSM ever since he made that remark about New Orleans and ever since Malcolm Gladwell called him a 'racist'.

Also, why should we shy away from 'extreme' figures who are for white interests when the likes of Tim Wise, David Sirota, Bruni, Frank Rich, Cornel West, gay mafia, etc are totally embraced by MSM? The 'new normal' says you are 'extreme' if you oppose 'gay marriage'. Elite institutions weed out opponents.

And it didn't bother MSM one bit that Obama had ties with Ayers, Wright, and worse.
And Jews still maintain that all those Jewish Stalinists of the 40s and 50s were innocent victims and lambs.

We shouldn't agree with everything Mac says and call him out when he's wrong, but when he does the job the MSM should be doing--out of tribal Jewish interests--, he should be linked and lauded. If the MSM had delved into this, Sailer would not be linking to Mac.

Another thing... we mustn't only blame the Jews. It's natural for Jews to hide their dirty laundry just like Putin's regime hides its. Republicans hide theirs and so do the democrats. So, we need cons to blow the whistle on Dem dirty tricks, and we need libs to blow the whistle on Repub dirty tricks. Few people/groups are self-critical. We are naturally defensive and circle-the-wagon-ish.

In the past, Jews deserved credit for exposing the power and privilege of wasps.
Now that Jews got the power, it is up to non-Jews to expose the dirty tricks of the Jewish community, but everyone is mum.
Mac, for all his faults, is one of the few who does. For having done so, he will never be hired by an elite college. Only tenure protects him from what befell the likes of Sanchez, Thomas, and Richwine.

And even though he is extreme on some matters and has some loathsome allies, how is he worse than Jewish libs and neocons who have loathsome allies in Israel and on the Left?
How are La Raza and all those nasty rappers worse than Mac's allies? MSM often features self-avowed communist Cornel West.
Academia is open to former leftist terrorists from the 60s. Oberlin freaks out over guy in blanket.
Al Sharpton has a regular gig.
Victor Navasky, a radical Jew who has spent a lifetime denying the espionage carried out by leftist Jews in the 40s and 50s, has taught journalism at an elite college! Isn't journalism about the search for truth? Yet a dirty liar--who has denied communist mass murder and crimes--has taught top students at a top college about journalism. No wonder most reporters care more about the agenda than about the truth. It's more about the Narrative of the NarraTribe than about the narratruth.

Putin is willing to forgive, but Jews won't take responsibility for their 'historical crimes(and istead attack Putin for speaking the truth)... even though they demand that all other groups fess up to their crimes of antisemitism.

Reading the comments brings to mind the historian AJP Taylor's response to those who argued that his "History of the Second World War" had been welcomed by former supporters of Hitler.

"I have however no sympathy with those in this country who complained that my book had been welcomed, mistakenly or not, by former supporters of Hitler. This seems to me a disgraceful argument to be used against a work of history. A historian must not hesitate even if his books lend aid and comfort to the Queen’s enemies (though mine did not), or even to the common enemies of mankind. For my part, I would even record facts which told in favour of the British government, if I found any to record."

Same applies to journalists IMHO. Never mind whose narrative is served - is it true?

Perhaps (I have no idea) the academic you quote is a raging anti-semite. But if what he's reporting is true, and no one else will report it for fear of being called an anti-semite, then its him or nobody. Knowledge is good, as Steve says.

(The UK has no issues with Israeli hooks into our communications btw. All our switchgear is supplied by a highly reputable Chinese company.)

Funny, I've visited MacDonald's blog for years. It's always good for a laugh.Here is a perfect example of Kev's stupidity:

"One such approach is to present characters that are Jewish in every way except that there are no explicit assertions of Jewish identity. Seinfeld was a great example. Although Jerry’s character was overtly Jewish, the character of George Costanza was obviously Jewish but presented as not Jewish. George is presented as Italian, but he is played by a Jewish actor whose parents on the show are also played by Jewish actors exhibiting stereotypical Jewish family patterns; George’s character was based on the show’s co-creator, Larry David who is quintessentially Jewish. It always seemed to me that the same could be said of the Elaine character, but perhaps less obviously so. She is played by a Jewish actress but is often seen wearing a crucifix; her name suggests she is Czech and in one episode she explicitly states she is not Jewish. But her character, her appearance, her interests, her mannerisms, her voice, and her rapport with Jerry and George seem obviously Jewish. None of this could be said about the Kramer character played by Michael Richards. Clearly a goy."

So, according to the always observant Kev, all of the main characters on SEINFELD are coded Jewish, regardless of ethnic background, .....except for Kramer. Somehow, I fail to see how anyone could read Kramer as being more goyish than Elaine....well, unless you are Kevin MacDonald...

"Sure, even paranoids have enemies, but the US isn't a sleeping dog, it's a dead one."

Things change. In Polish-occupied Ukraine klal Y'Isroelhad a good thing going for a couple centuries. They would lease out entire villages of Ukrainian slaves from the Polish conquerors, extract what they could from the slaves and turn over a percentage to the doofus Poles who really didn't know how to maximize their extractions from the slaves. Yeah, it all worked well for many, many generations until the Chmielniki uprising, when Bogdan Chmielniki, a minor aristo, cut loose and went after the Poles. All hell broke loose when the peasants got involved and generations of payback were unleashed. Think Nat Turner on steroids, where even the "good" slaveowners get killed. What? You don't know who Nat Turner was? They know who ol' Bogdan is! Every year the Ukrainian slave revolt of 1648 is commemorated in Jewish services around the world.

The perennial Jewish fear is that a seemingly "dead" peasantry is going to feel its oats, cut loose and go after them. What was Hitler, after all, but a populist who hammered on ethnic "overrepresentation" and "disparate impact."?

Things can change in a heartbeat. All Jews know that. The seemingly friendly (or at least subjugated) forelock-tugging goyim can put two and two together, see an opportunity and seize it almost instantly. There is no such thing as a "dead nation".

Mac isn't the best critic of arts and culture. And there was one writer on TOC named Lankhead Moonshine or something who wrote the dumbest attack on modernist art.

But Mac is right sometimes and touches on stuff others will not.
So, TOC is worth reading once a while.

It's like I was a regular reader of The Nation for yrs and yrs despite all the dumb things it said about politics cuz it had some excellent book and movie reviews. And some articles that shined the light on corruption, India mafia, and etc were all good stuff. Better than Friedman's World is Flatulence BS in the NY Times.

One thing for sure, the left is the best critic of the right, and the right is the best critic of the left.
And Jews were best critics of Wasps, but.. but... where are the critics of Jewish power?
Gentiles must criticize Jewish power just as Jews criticized gentile power.
One good thing about diversity is the possibility of diversity of views and opinions. But when it comes to Jews and homos, we aren't allowed to have diversity of views or interests. All of us must serve Jews and homos.

Steve happens to be the best of the best, so he pulls sort of it off.

If anyone here wants to start a magazine, an enigmatic name, like Taki's Magazine, which manages to attract decent writers.

"Lyndon LaRouche used to play that trick on his followers. Ask Dave 'Spengler' Goldman. He'll confirm it if he's truthful."

Can you explain further?

Transformation into a cult
The transformation of his group from a leftist political sect into a full-blown political cult appears to have happened around 1973-74. In 1973 he ordered his followers to physically attack meetings of the U.S. Communist Party, claiming this would establish the "hegemony" of LaRouche's group over the U.S. left. Shortly thereafter, he began incorporating a weird psycho-sexual analysis into his politics and subjecting followers to "deprogramming" sessions, claiming only he could cure their political "and sexual" impotence. LaRouche also claimed he was being targeted for assassination. Ex-followers call this period the "great freakout of 1974."[1]

Who cares? I enjoy Steve, but in general the quality of writers Vdare attracts is low. The reason? Very few respectable journalists (or for that matter anyone with a good job -- lawyers, doctors) can keep any career at all if they have Team White People tattooed on their foreheads. Steve happens to be the best of the best, so he pulls sort of it off.

You're just mad, perhaps because Steve can't be Richwined for posting on an "undesirable" website or magazine. Steve's reputation and influence only continues to grow. If anything, his contribution to Vdare elevates Vdare.

Every other race does not hide from ethnic political association. There are mainstream figures who virtually have Team Black People, Team Asian People, Team Hispanic People or Team Jewish People tattooed on their foreheads. The mainstreaming of white political activism will never happen until a critical mass of our people refuse to be cowed. One of the best ways to do so is to financially support those who are willing to take such risks, like Steve, Richwine, KMac et al.

I'm wasn't mad, and I don't even have a hint as to why you think I was. Now I am, a little. Maybe it isn't fair that non-whites have ethnic advocacy organizations that are mainstream, but I find that sort of thing noxious. I don't want any part of it. I may tell my kids that black people are less clever on average and more dangerous on average than the population mean, but I don't particularly want my boys to feel racial solidarity with other white people, and to shun people of other races.

Reality tends towards the noxious. That's probably not a good reason to close your eyes and stick your fingers in your ears.

"Philosemitic canard"

Good stuff. I'm going to use this one.

"There's no lobby for israel ..."

"Jews are not influential in US media.. wrong... no interests"

How dare you, denying this is a philosemetic canard!

Hunsdon said: Might I draw an historical analogy? I am no great huge fan of nuclear weapons, and would prefer that they did not exist.
However, during the 1980s, when the Greens were pushing for unilateral disarmament by the West, I could not help but regard them as useful idiots at best, and subversive agents of a foreign power at worst.

I meant I don't want to join a pro-white group, not that I want to ignore what I find noxious.

Fair enough. But if I told all my friends I were part of a pro-white group, it would have the same effect as if I shunned all my non-white friends (and it would also alienate some of my white ones).

Isn't it very perverse that neocon/Blairite warmongers (imagine children and grandmums being blown to pieces for no good reason) are deemed more respectable and less of a menace than a harmless crank(?) like Nick Griffin?

Right. Similarly, if whites start to act in their own interests, the minority coalition has threatened to smash them. So, whites acting in their own interests is tantamount to starting a race war. Or like when a husband tells his wife he's going to beat her to death if she files for divorce - if she files for divorce, she's clearly asking for it. She was warned. Same effect.

These are arguments the sociopath minorities actually use - nothing new here.
