The Hound of the Baskervilles is a good friend whose company provides an element of sanity in my existence. —MCP bout the cover: This 1926 classic work by German artist George Grosz (1893- A1959)—entitled “Eclipse of Sun”—portrayed the corruption of the Weimer Republic which was described by writer Ian Baruma as being under the sway of “auto- cratic media moguls, disaffected generals, dim-witted elites, fundamentalist reactionar- ies and ultra-nationalist schemers.” This painting—and Baruma’s assessment of Weimar—quite accurately reflect the rampant corruption of the New World Order elite, the New Pharisees, who operate in the sphere of the Rothschild Empire today.We do take issue, though, with the term “ultra-nationalist schemers” since, of course, the global Jewish aristocracy are anything but nationalists and are,instead,very much inter- nationalists, working to achieve the age-oldTalmudic dream ofThe Jewish Utopia.These warmongers, these kings of finance, plutocratic predators all, should and must be stopped in their tracks and dealt with like the parasites that they are.This book, The New Babylon, recounts their sordid history. THE NEW BABYLON THOSE WHO REIGN SUPREME The Rothschild Empire: The Modern-Day Pharisees and the Historical, Religious and Economic Origins of The New World Order BY MICHAEL COLLINS PIPER American Free Press Washington, D.C. FRANCOIS GENOUD (1915-1996) DEDICATION To the Grand Strategist of Global Resistance and Combat Against the New World Order FRANCOIS GENOUD—“SHEIK FRANCOIS” ew know the name “Francois Genoud,” yet, for some sixty years this Swiss banker, publisher and geopolitical thinker—once Fdescribed as “the most mysterious man in Europe”—was the pre- eminent—albeit behind-the-scenes—strategist working for global coopera- tion between nationalists across the planet who sought to dislodge the Rothschild Empire’s relentless drive for an imperial New World Order, the ancient dream energized by the Hellish teachings of the Babylonian Talmud. In the closing days of World War II and afterward, Genoud played an instrumental role in the escape of anti-communist European refugees whose sole crime was to stand in defense of their nations in the face of vengeance- crazed Communist and Judaist forces that were over-running the continent. There are perhaps thousands of people living across the planet today who owe their very existence to the fact that Genoud rescued their fore- bears from certain torture and execution meted out by Victor’s Justice. As far back as 1936, the young Genoud forged what became a lifelong friendship and working relationship with the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, the spiritual leader of the Muslims of Palestine who—along with their Christian brothers—ultimately suffered the great catastrophe of 1948 known as the Nakba, the theft of their native land, driven from their ancestral homes at gunpoint into exile, many of them into squalid open cesspools—so-called “refugee camps”—in which so many of their descendants still languish. In 1958 Genoud founded the Banque Commerciale Arabe in Geneva from which he managed the finances of nationalist forces in the Arab world that were seeking independence from Rothschild Empire-dominated impe- rial enterprises. Among other efforts, Genoud played a major role in facili- tating the rise of the independent Arab Republic of Algeria. In the years that followed, Genoud—a devoted supporter of the Palestinian cause—worked with the Christian founders of the famed Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, George Habash and Dr.Waddi Haddad, who fondly dubbed his Swiss colleague “Sheik Francois.” And, needless to say, Genoud was a major patron of the Palestine Liberation Organization. In dedicated concert with other friends—such as American nationalist Willis Carto and former German General Otto Remer—Genoud also sought to advance the cause of bringing history—particularly that surrounding the events of World War II—into accord with the facts.And with another long- time associate, outspoken French attorney Jacques Verges, the dynamic Genoud continued to remain a force in combating global Zionist imperial- ism until the end of his remarkable career. What a man—Sheik Francois! —MICHAEL COLLINS PIPER Shown above are the five Rothschild brothers dis- patched by their father, Meyer Amschel (at inset), to Europe’s financial capitals: London, Frankfurt, Paris, Naples and Vienna. Following the inspiration of their father, whose mindset—an admiring biographer declared—was guided by the principles of the Talmud, the five brothers forged a remarkable financial net- work that set in place the global Rothschild Empire. erhaps it is possible to separate Jewish interests from Israeli Pinterests, but the trick is yet to be turned. What touches Israel touches global Jewry,and vice versa. Purists and theoreticians may argue about the separation of church and state, Jews and Israelis, Judaism and Zionism, but in the real world the connection is hard, fast, and seemingly indivisible. —Jewish-American author, Gerald Krefetz in Jews & Money: The Myths & the Reality t must be recognized, as it rarely is in histories of the Jews, Ithat [the] expressed resentments and indictments against the Jews were not entirely fictitious libels or maliciously revived and activated stereotypes simply disseminated by paranoid hate mer- chants from the grab bag of the anti-Semitic pre-modern past.There was just enough empirical truth in these negative, overblown, and over-generated images to give them persuasive force. —Dr. Norman Cantor The Sacred Chain: The History of the Jews hen we speak of the Jewish religion, we only think of the WBible, of the religion of Moses; that is an illusion; the Jews of the Middle Ages were Talmudists; they have not all ceased to be so. Even today the Talmud takes precedence in authority over the Bible. The Archives Israelites recognizes the absolute authority of the Talmud over the Bible and the Univers Israelite says, “During 2,000 years the Talmud has been and still is an object of veneration for the Israelites of whom it is the religious code.” —Viscount Leon de Poncins The Secret Powers Behind Revolution eyer Rothschild was a zealous believer in the Talmud and Mchose it alone as the guiding principle of all his actions. —S. J. Cohen The Exemplary Life of the Immortal Banker Mr.Meyer Amschel Rothschild This bizarre 1849 paint- ing (left) of a Jewish religious ceremony at the London palace of the Rothschild Dynasty was actually commis- sioned by the family itself, demonstrating their unswerving fealty to the principles of their faith.

In this article we will explore how HBO came to legitimatise a contemporary television culture through producing distinct divisions ad infinitum, framed as being rooted outside mainstream commercial television production. In creating incessant divisions in genre, authorship and aesthetics, HBO incorporates artistic norms and principles of evaluation and puts them into circulation as a succession of oppositions— oppositions that we will explore throughout this paper.

  • When Victims Rule
    1 24 JEWISH INFLUENCE IN THE MASS MEDIA, Part II In 1985 Laurence Tisch, Chairman of the Board of New York University, former President of the Greater New York United Jewish Appeal, an active supporter of Israel, and a man of many other roles, started buying stock in the CBStelevision network through his company, the Loews Corporation. The Tisch family, worth an estimated 4 billion dollars, has major interests in hotels, an insurance company, Bulova, movie theatres, and Loliards, the nation's fourth largest tobacco company (Kent, Newport, True cigarettes). Brother Andrew Tisch has served as a Vice-President for the UJA-Federation, and as a member of the United Jewish Appeal national youth leadership cabinet, the American Jewish Committee, and the American Israel Political Action Committee, among other Jewish organizations. By September of 1986 Tisch's company owned 25% of the stock of CBS and he became the company's president. And Tisch -- now the most powerful man at CBS -- had strong feelings about television, Jews, and Israel. The CBS news department began to live in fear of being compromised by their boss -- overtly, or, more likely, by intimidation towards self-censorship -- concerning these issues. "There have been rumors in New York for years," says J. J. Goldberg, "that Tisch took over CBS in 1986 at least partly out of a desire to do something about media bias against Israel." [GOLDBERG, p. 297] The powerful President of a major American television network dare not publicize his own active bias in favor of another country, of course. That would look bad, going against the grain of the democratic traditions, free speech, and a presumed "fair" mass media.

The results left Bewkes’ snub smacking of overconfident hyperbole, yet Time Warner’s newTV Every- where deal with Comcast adds even more credence to his constant drum beating of Turner as a multiplatform heavyweight. Turner inked a long-term pact that will provide the MSO’s digital customers with access to hundreds of shows on myriad platforms at no additional cost and shorty after initial airing. Content from TNT, TBS, CNN, HLN, truTV, TCM, Cartoon Net and Adult Swim will be included, with availability planned through Xfintitytv.com, Comcast’s VOD service and Xfinity-branded mobile apps. Live streaming is also planned. And starting in the middle of this year, the Turner content on Xfinity platforms is expected to accrue to Nielsen C3 ratings across TV and the Internet (Cfax, 2/1), and eventually to phone and tablet devices. “This landmark agreement… really solidifies our partnership in this effort and really pushes forward the concept of giving consumers more access to quality on- demand content on any device they choose,” said Bewkes in a release.

Second printing Library of Congress Catalog Card Number: ISBN: 0-935036-48-2 – 2 – BEST WITNESS / THE MEL MERMELSTEIN AFFAIR DEDICATION To my late father, T. M. Piper. A proud Marine, my father survived bloody combat in World War II, convinced he was fighting for his country. Many years later, as a result of his careful study of the works of revisionist historians, he came to realize that he was a survivor of a war that need not – and should not – have been fought. Along with his three brothers and a host of friends, my father marched off to war. He was one of the lucky ones who came home again, having fought to destroy what he then believed to be the perpetrators of what we now call "The Holocaust." In my final conversation with my father – just three hours before he died on July 21, 1990 – he and I discussed a recently revealed "detail" from the history of the Holocaust: the intriguing determination by the Polish authorities that contrary to everything we had been told by the "official" histories – four million people were not "gassed" at Auschwitz.

  • Passover Raisin Wine, the Temperance Movement, and Noah
    Passover Raisin Wine, The American Temperance Movement, and Mordecai Noah: The Origins, Meaning, And Wider Significance Of A Nineteenth-Century American Jewish Religious Practice JONATHAN D. SARNA Hebrew Union College -jewish Institute of Religion Cincinnati, Ohio The use of raism wine on Passover, described by Mordecai Noah (I785-I851) and considered by some in his day to have been a requirement of Jewish law, reflected (1) an old world custom that over time was trans­ formed into a "popular halacha," (2) a possible vestige of a Marrano practice, and (3) a rabbinically-sanctioned means of observing the commandments when regular kosher wine was unobtainable. Use of the wine demonstrates a desire on the part of nineteenth century American Jews to maintain se­ lected traditions and customs even under difficult "frontier" traditions. The practice enriched jewish life, served to distinguish Jews from their Christian neighbors, and helped to transform Passover into a time of religious revi­ talization. Jewish use of raisin wine also became an issue in the American temperance debate. The episode illustrates how American Christians some­ times used Jews as informants, viewed them as repositories of ancient wis­ dom, and looked to them as potential legitimators of Christian practices. Fi­ nally, the raisin wine issue sheds light on American Jewish attitudes to the temperance question as a whole. Mordecai Noah endorsed temperance as an important social cause, even as he warned adherents against extremism. Later Jews, who saw the movement at a more advanced stage, worried about the coercive evangelical fervor and nativism associated with it, and kept their distance.
