Ben Gurion, the founding Israeli prime minister, pronounced a future Pax Judaica in 1962, “all armies will be abolished, and there will be no more wars. In Jerusalem, the United Nations (a truly United Nations) will build a Shrine of the Prophets to serve the federated union of all continents, this will be the seat of the Supreme Court of Mankind, to settle all controversies among the federated continents, as prophesied by Isaiah.”

George Washington wrote in his Farewell Address, in 1796, “The nation which indulges toward another a habitual hatred or a habitual fondness is in some degree a slave. It is a slave to its animosity or its affection, either of which is sufficient to lead it astray from its duties and its interests… Sympathy for the favorite nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary common interest in cases where no real common interest exists, and infusing into one the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter without adequate inducement or justification… And it gives to ambitious, corrupted, or deluded citizens who devote themselves to the favorite nation, facility to betray or sacrifice the interests of their own country, without odium, sometimes even with popularity.”

Zeev Jabotinsky, founder of Revisionist Zionist movement and commander of Irgun, the Jewish equivalent of ISIS, wrote in The Iron Wall: We and the Arabs, “all colonization, even the most restricted, must continue in defiance of the will of the native population. Therefore, it can continue and develop only under the shield of force, comprising an Iron Wall that the local population can never break through. This is our Arab policy. To formulate it any other way would be hypocrisy… Zionism is a colonizing adventure and therefore it stands or it falls by the question of armed occupation.”

Jabotinsky’s personal secretary Ben Zion Netanyahu/Mileikowsky was the father of the current Israeli prime minister.

Leo Strauss, German Jewish immigrant Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago and student of Carl Schmitt, Hitler’s chief jurist, is considered the intellectual father of neocons in the US whose students include Paul Wolfowitz, Irving Kristol, Abram Shulsky, and William Kristol.

Has the University of Chicago ruined the US?

There are many interesting arguments about which elite university in the US has done the most damage to the country – some claim Harvard business school have produced the greediest CEOs who have ruined the country’s industrial capitalism; some say Yale is the cradle of deep state actors filled with its Skull and Bones members. … Read full story

In his 1962 lecture Why We Remain Jews, Strauss rejected the idea that Isreal as a nation should be contained within its borders; “Israel must retain its specificity, which is to be everywhere.”

In his article Thoughts on Machiavelli, Strauss praised Machiavelli for “the intrepidity of his thought, the grandeur of his vision, and the graceful subtlety of his speech”.

Machiavelli’s model of a prince was Cesar Borgia, the tyrant who after having appointed the cruel Ramiro d’Orco to subdue the province of Romania, had him executed with utter cruelty, thus reaping the people’s gratitude after having diverted their hatred onto another.

Strauss wrote “Machiavelli is a patriot of a particular kind. He is more concerned with the salvation of his fatherland than the salvation of his soul. And that happens to be what Jewishness is all about.”

Other Jews such as JINSA founding member Michael Ledeen also admired Machiavelli, who wrote “Machiavelli must be a “secret Jew” since if you listen to his political philosophy, you will hear Jewish music”.
