Sans Jews
If Jews had never immigrated to the United States, we would undoubtedly be much better off than we are now, but we would still have a racial problem. Although Jews are clearly a menace, I don’t lay all of America’s problems at their door.
(1) Racialism never put down firm roots in much of the North. States like Vermont, New Hampshire, New York, New Jersey, and Minnesota never had anti-miscegenation laws. Before Dred Scott, negroes were already citizens of many of these states. They had voting rights. There was little formal segregation. When Dred Scott was handed down, there were howls of protest across the North about the rights of black citizens.
(2) In the North, racialism was already in decline. Pennsylvania repudiated its anti-miscegenation law before the Constitution was even signed. Massachusetts followed in the 1830s. In every Northern state, Jim Crow laws were systematically torn down after the Civil War. Segregation in education and public accommodations was outlawed.
(3) The Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution effectively destroyed the White Republic that was created by the Founders. Negroes were given full citizenship, voting rights, and a federal guarantee of equal protection under the law. See also the Civil Rights Acts of 1866, 1871, and 1875.
(4) The U.S. federal government has been in the business of repressing White Nationalists since the Grant Administration. Witness the fate of the Ku Klux Klan or the White League in the 1870s. See also the crackdown on the filibusters.
(5) In the North of the 1850s, the terrorist John Brown was embraced as a martyr and a hero. Uncle Tom’s Cabin was a best seller. Frederick Douglass was a respected and admired intellectual.
(6) In the nineteenth century, the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives was already graced by anti-racist luminaries such as Charles Sumner and Thaddeus Stevens.
(7) Abolitionism grew into a mass movement. Whites are entirely capable of producing and leading destructive egalitarian social crusades on their own intiative. Why wouldn’t they have continued to do so?
(8) The Civil War was fought to destroy the Confederacy.
(9) Thomas Jefferson’s racial theories were controversial even in his day. Samuel Stanhope Smith (the president of Princeton University) was one his famous opponents. Smith was arguing for environmentalism and cultural relativism over a hundred years before Franz Boas started teaching at Columbia.
(10) Religious groups like the Quakers and Unitarians would still have been around to promote universalism and egalitarianism.
(11) The colonization of what later became the United States was botched from the start. The Southern colonies were founded with a commercial purpose in mind. Hundreds of thousands of slaves were imported from Africa which grew through natural increase into millions.
(12) In the South, the planter class was addicted to servile non-white cheap labor before and after the Civil War, and often at odds with white interests.
(13) The United States was already flirting with third world immigration in the nineteenth century. Chinese immigrants settled in the Western states. The Japanese were allowed to colonize Hawaii. Mexicans worked as cheap labor in the Southwest when Arizona was still a territory.
(14) The ideological commitment of Americans to liberal democracy would still have invariably clashed with their racial nationalism. Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt all wrestled with the issue.

Good points. My take on jews is that they are more the exacerbators than the originators of our problems. They scan the host society for soft spots and then push on them; they search for sparks and pour fuel on them.
Though I don’t blame jews exclusively, I don’t think that things would ever have gotten as bad as they have if it weren’t for jewish involvement.
The following is a news-story your publication is probably interested in covering even though it’s from a leftist website: “Look Out, Are You About to Join the White Underclass?” — By Joe Bageant, JoeBageant.com – http://www.alternet.org/workplace/141405/look_out%2C_are_you_about_to_join_the_white_underclass/
On point 7: You could expand on this by noting it was mostly Northern Christian groups, filled with moral fervor, who filled up the abolition movement. This movement would be instrumental in getting Lincoln elected. (Lincoln, at least, wanted to send all the blacks back to Africa or to Central America after the war.)
Sophistry. MacDonald had shown that Jews were the “necessary but not sufficient cause” of the US becoming a multicultural cesspool. Better to have a racial problem in a >90% white country than <50%, due to the Jewish1965 immigration law.
Just because certain northern states didn’t have anti-miscegenation laws, it doesn’t follow that, therefore, citizens of those states weren’t racially self-conscious or would want their White sons or daughters marrying Blacks. Most abolitionists in the North had never lived around any Blacks; therefore, the idea that Blacks should be free like White people in this country was based merely on an egalitarian ‘Christian’ abstraction and not based in the reality of everyday life.
To show this point–the town of Litchfield, Connecticut, where Harriet Beecher Stowe was born (down the road from me), forebade the sale of property to Jews up until the 20th century. And since the day she was born, her town still has virtually no Blacks and very few Jews. Despite what northern liberals profess about egalitarianism, they, like most Whites, still self-segregate.
As far as the Civil War goes, it never could have happened without Jewish agitating and money–they stirred up the tension behind the scenes (John Brown, for example), then financed both sides. The Rothschilds, the Schiffs, the Warburgs, the usual suspects. And afterwards, the term ‘carpetbagger’ became a euphemism for ‘Jew’. And no, the Civil War was not fought to destroy the Confederacy. It was fought by Lincoln and his treasonous minions to destroy the Constitution, for which the Confederacy stood, and which the european-based bankers despised. To top it off, Karl Marx sent Lincoln a telegram congratulating him on the northern victory. Yes, Jews were very much involved in the Civil War.
The ‘planter class’ of the south? Only 3% of Whites owned slaves. That doesn’t sound like much of an ‘addiction’ to non-white slave labor. If you want to talk about how over 30% of Jewish households owned slaves, yes, then we can start to see what appears to be an ‘addiction’. Maybe you should talk about the northern White addiction to White slavery. But I guess the northern White abolitionists didn’t have as much sympathy for them because they were in their own households, and they were White.
If you can find one prominent Jew who was involved, overtly, in the abolitionist movement, please let me know. Why might this be? Jews ran the slave trade in this country, and owned virtually all the slave ships. The “evil southerners” bought their slaves from northern and southern Jewish slave traders. In many places, you couldn’t buy a slave on a Saturday because it was a Jewish holy day. And when they saw the south losing the war, they grabbed their carpetbags, and went south to take advantage of the situation. And then they had the hypocrisy to virtually run the NAACP and then the Civil Rights Movement.
Had it not been for the successes of the KKK, despite overwhelming odds, in restoring a semblance of racial and political stability in the South, I believe this country would have fallen apart. The White abolitionists after the War wanted to virtually give the South–the land and the political power–to the freed Blacks, and displace the Whites as punishment. Had they been successful, over the efforts of the KKK, the South would have become, very quickly, a laughingstock Third World Nation, and the North would have had no choice but to separate itself from it completely, or send in troops again to displace the Blacks and restore White order.
And just to set the historical record straight–the grassroots Black-led repatriation movement back to Africa was still very strong in this country up until the 1930s, with Marcus Garvey, in the vanguard. This movement would have gone a long way to solving the racial problems in this country. However, the Jewish communists did everything they could to discredit and undermine this movement because they wanted Integration, which they knew would be a racial burr under the proverbial saddle. They countered the Black repatriation movement by heavily funding and promoting the Black communist integrationists, such as W.E.B. DuBois and then Martin Luther King, Jr. We all know the results–a trillion dollars in welfare later, with no results, except hundreds of thousands of Whites raped and murdered.
I could go on for hours, but will stop here.
