'Western' Interest in 'Arab Spring' is, inter alia, about Sending Arab Children to the Guilt Chambers

"Now that the Arab masses are applying the universal lessons of democracy, human rights and the rule of law in taking down their authoritarian governments, it is time they take back the learning of history, too. That includes teaching their children the universal lessons of the Holocaust." (Robert Satloff, "Why Palestinians Should Learn About the Holocaust," The New York Times, March 29, 2011)

My translation and corrections:

"I, Robert Satloff, Executive Director of AIPAC's Kahal for Judaizing U.S. Foreign Policy which we deceptively call 'Washington Institute for Near East Policy,' don't subscribe to universal rights and values myself but I invoke such concepts when speaking to the Goyim because they like that goyishe dreck.

"We've trained the Goyim to believe that 'authoritarians' are evil so we call the people we want them to hate 'authoritarian' so they won't care when we send Goy armies to bomb and kill the 'authoritarians' and anyone within hundreds of miles of them. We launch our invasions of the 'authoritarian' nations on our day of vengeance, Purim so the shrewd Yidden know these wars are for us. The dumb Goyim don't understand these things.

"Once the 'authoritarians' (whom we have oftentimes installed in the first place) are hung like Haman, we bring in 'Democracy' and by framing and controlling the discourse and selective distribution of funds we 'democratically' install another leader who will assert our self-chosen authority by proxy.
By character and literal assassination we eliminate opposition to our proxies by any intelligent, benevolent person who would represent the common good of the native population because that would be against our interest.

"This is where we spring our guilt chambers on the Arabs (get it? 'Arab Spring'?). We can't have Arabs thinking they are more persecuted than us as we bomb and shoot them and steal their land and resources so we'll send them to the guilt chambers and then they'll behave more like the stupid Americans who kill for us even as we heap tens of trillions of dollars of debt upon them.
"Trillions in unpayable debt is another thing we'll spring on those Arabs when the 'authoritarians' are gone. It will keep them docile, like the Americans, except when we want them to kill.
"We'll spring 'dialogue' on them which means that we will authoritatively dictate our terms to them while striking insincere poses of mutual respect and understanding.
We'll spring religious leaders on them who wear traditional garments but impose Holocaust guilt on them like we've done to those stupid Catholics. We'll have the Arabs prostrating themselves before our holy Holocaust relics and, like the Catholics, they'll be no trouble to us as we build our Jewish kingdom. Then we will marvel at how greatly Hashem has blessed us."

Florida Residents Fight Taxpayer Bailout for 'Holocaust' 'Museum'

We've all heard tales of Nazis forcing 'The Jews' to dig their own graves. Today, the Hollywood, Florida mob is scheming to get Florida taxpayers to finance their own guilt chamber.

Hollywood may forgive $1.7 million loan to Holocaust center

Hollywood Florida: Holocaust Documentation & Education Center loan

Eight years ago this city embraced the prospect of providing a home in the downtown for a Holocaust museum and education center that would fit nicely into the city's intellectual core: its arts and cultural district.

Like many grand projects, this one ran into unforeseen obstacles in renovating an old building and in raising funds. The center is functional but the museum has yet to open.

On Monday morning, the City Commission, acting as its redevelopment board, will consider a plan to forgive $1.7 million the Holocaust Documentation & Education Center owes in principal and interest for the purchase of its building, at 2031 Harrison St.

The city, however, is facing a $38 million budget deficit in 2012 and has voted tentatively to increase property taxes and firefighting fees. So the prospect of its redevelopment arm writing off a $1.7 million loan is creating some consternation.

"It looks extremely bad," said retired attorney Sara Case, who edits a blog about city finances.

Leaders of Hollywood's Community Redevelopment Agency stress that redevelopment funds — used to attract and retain businesses — legally cannot be used to offset shortfalls in the general revenue fund, which pay city operating expenses.

But the city's coffers and the CRA's both are financed with tax dollars, making forgiving the $1.7 million loan unappetizing to some.

"It's just not right to give this money away," city activist Peter Brewer said.

CRA officials believe they have a plan that will still safeguard the public's money.

The loan forgiveness comes with a caveat. The center, which has collected thousands of documents, photos, artifacts and oral histories of Holocaust survivors, must open a museum on the ground floor in about 18 months and actively run it for 10 years.

If successful, under the proposal the center eventually will outright own the Harrison Street building, which now houses its offices, library and classroom space. If unsuccessful, however, the building will revert back to the CRA.

"Hopefully this will create the opportunity for them to get going, and if they don't get going then we'll get the asset back," CRA Executive Director Jorge Camejo said.

The only cost to the center: $18,300 in administrative fees spread out over several years.

This is not the first time the CRA has come to the center's rescue. It agreed in 2004 that the center would not have to begin paying back its $1.2 million loan for three years. Then in September 2005, it gave the center a $50,000 grant for roof repairs.

In 2007, the CRA forgave another $500,000 loan for renovations. That same year it gave the center three more years to begin paying on the 2004 loan.

In 2008, the center revised its plans and bought a separate building in Hollywood for $850,000, without city funds, at 115 S. 21st Ave. The center now plans to house its major museum there and install a traveling exhibition gallery on the ground floor of the Harrison Street building.

In October of last year, the center finally was to begin repaying the CRA loan — in monthly payments of $16,026 through 2024 — but told the city it could not because of unexpectedly high renovation costs at the Harrison Street building. City documents state the center spent $4 million on renovations while the appraised value of the building dropped.

By last year, the principal and interest on the loan had accrued to $1.7 million. The center and CRA agreed to renegotiate the terms.

The center's director, Rositta Kenigsberg, said she welcomes the opportunity to work with the city to bring the museum to fruition.

"This is a mutually beneficial partnership, and we look forward to our future endeavors together," she said.

Shoah Business Capital Gets its own 'Holocaust' Temple

I get the logic. In a town like L.A. it can be very easy to forget how victimized 'The Jews' are.

I wonder, are the children of Mexican dishwashers as susceptible to baseless, forced guilt as the descendants of WWII canon fodder? I hope not, because ending this lunacy may depend upon them.

Holocaust museum opens in L.A.

October 17, 2010

LOS ANGELES (JTA) -- A $19 million Holocaust museum opened in a popular recreational area in Los Angeles.

Civic dignitaries and Holocaust survivors were on hand Oct. 14 for the official opening of The Los Angeles Museum of the Holocaust in Pan Pacific Park, near the old Jewish Fairfax district.

Admission will be free, said the museum's board president, E. Randol Schoenberg. Among the visitors each year will be an estimated 40,000 to 50,000 high school students taking state-mandated Holocaust instruction.

ADL Expands 'Holocaust' 'Education' Workshop

I've been warning of this assault on the minds of children since 2005 to a largely apathetic traditional Catholic movement. I hope traditional Catholics aren't waiting for a sign from The Remnant, CFN, "the Fatima Priest," Bishop Fellay and the rest of traditionalism's leading lights as to the seriousness of this problem.

ADL revises annual Holocaust education programs

By Ryan Torok - Jewish Journal

Oct. 13, 2010

The Anti-Defamation League’s (ADL) annual Holocaust Education Workshop, which emphasizes Holocaust education in the classroom and will feature four sessions Nov. 3-10, will, for the first time, overlap with “Bearing Witness,” the organization’s long-running, three-day workshop for Catholic-school teachers, seminarians and priests, which takes place Nov. 7-9.

Attendees from the two programs will come together for an eight-hour intensive learning session Nov. 7 at American Jewish University, where topics will include the “History of Anti-Semitism,” “Guidelines and Methodologies for Teaching the Holocaust,” “History of the Holocaust” and “Israel and Modern Anti-Semitism.”

The last, a new addition to the workshop curriculum, examines the “linkage between what happened in the Holocaust and how Israel is perceived around the world now,” said ADL Pacific Southwest Regional Director Amanda Susskind.

Father Dennis McManus, a consultant on Catholic-Jewish affairs at the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, will speak at the “Bearing Witness” program, which, Susskind said, is “a program tailored to the Catholic-school experience.”

Its purpose, Susskind added, “is not just to teach about the Holocaust, but to teach about the miraculous change in the Catholic-Jewish relationship in the last 40 years.”

Father Alexei Smith, ecumenical and interreligious officer for the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, said he hopes teachers don’t confuse the two ADL workshops as being in competition with each other.

“I’m a little afraid that one will outdo the other,” Smith said. “I know teachers, [and] they only have so much time to come to programs.”

Earlier this month, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, in partnership with Loyola Marymount University (LMU), similarly revised its 10th annual Southern California Teacher Forum on Holocaust Education. Organizers for the program, which is held at LMU, for the first time developed the agenda with Catholic educators in mind.

Lansdale Catholic High School Wins "Generous, Coveted Prize" for Excellence in Holocaustolatry

The Noahide faith is strong at this formerly Catholic High School.

Holocaust Arts Contest as a Way to Teach Tolerance

July 02, 2009

Lynn B. Edelman - Jewish Federation Feature

Eileen Hildenbrand, chairperson of the English Department at Lansdale Catholic High School, expressed her delight at learning that her school will soon receive a coveted prize from the sponsors of the recent Mordechai Anielewicz Creative Arts Competition on the Holocaust -- the Clara Isaacman Memorial Holocaust Trunk: "This generous gift, valued at more than $1,500, will provide our students with a wealth of Holocaust educational materials that we did not currently have, and will be utilized by our students in a variety of subjects."

Hildenbrand explained that the Holocaust is explored through the prism of many subject areas at the school, including English, social studies and theology.

"It is an important topic for our students, who are not only United States citizens, but also citizens of the world," she said, adding that "since we are a Catholic school, our students need to learn about other groups."

Hildenbrand said she hopes that this knowledge will help to promote tolerance, understanding and respect for others.

She also said that she believes the motto so closely associated with Holocaust education -- "Remember not to forget" -- has great relevance in today's society.

"Genocide is a current problem in many parts of the world; perhaps we can learn from the past how to address this issue today," she pondered.

This is the third time Hildenbrand's students have been honored by the competition's judges.

"We encourage our students to enter because it is through the arts that students can explore and express their feelings," she said.

Students in her English I class created commemorative postage stamps to honor those lost in the Holocaust and/or those Righteous Gentiles who acted to prevent the loss of Jewish lives.

Hildenbrand emphasized that "the role of the Righteous Gentile [see: Noahide] is especially relevant for our students."

This project was the culminating activity in the students' exploration of the Holocaust. In preparation, they read The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank and Number the Stars by Lois Lowry. Seniors viewed the movie "Schindler's List," while freshmen saw "Miracle at Midnight" to emphasize the role that many Christians played in saving friends and neighbors from the hands of the Nazis.

To help these young people understand the concept of 6 million Holocaust victims, several student groups also saw "Paper Clips," a movie that documented one school's project to collect one paper clip for each Jewish life lost.

Hildenbrand's colleague, Elizabeth Burgoon, helped her senior class to create scrapbooks that marked the lives of various fictional people who lived during the Holocaust through letters and pictures. To prepare for this competition entry, students read Night by Elie Weisel and The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, a book by Irish novelist John Boyne that was recently made into an award-winning movie.

Throughout the course of their school experience, the Catholic students will have much exposures to Holocaust studies, as well as ample opportunity for discussion. Said Hildenbrand: "We are trying to help them gain knowledge about a very dark period in history and learn from the past how to create a better world."

The multimedia entries from Lansdale Catholic High School students and other competition participants were displayed from June 3 through June 15 at the Moore College of Art & Design.

Award winners were honored during a ceremony at the college on June 8.

The Mordechai Anielewicz Creative Arts Competition, now in its 36th year, provides students in grades seven to 12, of all religious and ethnic backgrounds, with a chance to respond to the Holocaust and its related issues through creative expression. Students are encouraged to submit original written, musical, art, film and creative dance works that focus on Holocaust themes.

The contest is sponsored by the Memorial Committee for the Six Million Jewish Martyrs of the Jewish Community Relations Council of the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia and the Auerbach Central Agency for Jewish Education, in cooperation with the Association of Jewish Holocaust Survivors, Sons and Daughters of Holocaust Survivors, Children of Jewish Holocaust Survivors Association of Philadelphia, Samuel Pelta Holocaust Education Endowment, Jewish Publication Society and Moore College of Art & Design. It is named in honor of Mordechai Anielewicz, the 19-year-old leader of the Jewish revolt against the Nazis in the Warsaw ghetto.

James von Brunn: The Shimon ben Yohai of "The White Race, " and His Contribution to Holocaustolatry

Manchurian candidate, James von Brunn has prepared the altar. Now comes the procession of bishops to incense the idol of Holocaustolatry, once again. The liturgical season of "The Holocaust" never ends.

James von Brunn, like the rabbis, is an anti-Christian racial determinist. He's mentally programmed to behave in an anti-Christian rabbinic manner. Like the rabbis, who teach that "Amalek" is a genetically programmed enemy of "The Jews" and cannot be reasoned with and therefore must be killed, HERE, HERE, and HERE, so does James von Brunn believe that "The Jews" are genetically programmed enemies of "The White Race" and cannot be reasoned with and therefore must be killed, HERE (scroll to bottom). In essence, there is no difference between James von Brunn and Rabbi Shimon ben Yohai who he paraphrased in the title of his book, Kill the Best Gentiles. But one of these race haters is sainted while the other will live in infamy in accordance with the crazy double-standards of this crazy, racist world, which the bishops honor above all.

And here is Cardinal George sanctifying the "hallowed space" of the U.S. Holocaust Museum and calling for more "education" against every kind of bias (except pro-Judaic bias, of course). No, Cardinal George, the world needs the Gospel, the teachings of Jesus Christ which your elder brothers are attempting to destroy with their "education" and Holocaustolatry.

Cardinal calls shooting at US Holocaust museum 'appalling'

Friday 12 June 2009

WASHINGTON (CNS) - The president of the United States bishops' conference called the June 10 shooting at the US Holocaust Memorial Museum that left a security guard dead "appalling".

James von Brunn, identified as an 88-year-old Holocaust denier and white supremacist, opened fire in the Washington museum and fatally shot guard Stephen Johns, 39, according to The Associated Press.

The shooting "was a deplorable act of violence and a violation of a hallowed space in our nation's capital," said Cardinal Francis E. George of Chicago in a statement released June 11 by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops in Washington.

"This tragic incident only serves to reinforce the need for continued education throughout society against bias of every kind, but most especially racial and religious prejudice," he said.

In a separate statement Archbishop Donald W. Wuerl of Washington said June 11 the murder was "particularly distressing given the museum's special mission to educate our world about violence and be a living reminder of the harm that comes from hatred and anger."

"It is our prayer that Mr. Johns rest in God's eternal embrace and that this loss be a call to each of us for a renewed commitment to building a world of peace and respect for all people," Archbishop Wuerl said.

The archdiocese collaborates with the museum, the bishops' conference and other groups each year to train Catholic school educators to teach their students about anti-Semitism, the Holocaust, prejudice and Catholic-Jewish relations.

In his statement Cardinal George said that that "by preserving the memory of the 6 million Jews who died in the Shoah, the museum speaks to the consciences of all who pass through its doors and hear the powerful stories of the innocent men, women and children who lost their lives at the hands of a criminal regime."

He noted that annually millions of the visitors to the museum "learn of the dangers of unchecked hatred and of the need to prevent genocide wherever it threatens."

The cardinal, on behalf of the U.S. bishops, offered condolences to the Johns family and said the Catholic leaders are "committed to promoting human dignity and interreligious peace throughout our nation."

"We echo the words of Pope Benedict XVI: 'May the Shoah be a warning for all against forgetfulness, denial or reductionism, because violence committed against one single human being is violence against all,'" he said.

The students visited with Garon to understand the significance of the Holocaust to help the drama students with an upcoming play.


School's theater group tackles history with production

Michael F. Vinning - Thibodaux Daily Comet

Friday, April 3, 2009

Vandebilt Catholic High School’s theater club is making history — actually staging history with two productions.

A two-part production, “And Then They Came For Me: Remembering the World of Anne Frank and 100 Years of Broadway is scheduled for 7 p.m. April 3 and 4, and 2 p.m. April 5 at the Houma school, 209 S. Hollywood Road.

“This will truly be a night of entertainment you won’t soon forget,” said Anne Mohana, director of the drama portion of the show. “It’s very different from our past shows which have mostly been big musical productions that were light and fluffy.”

The show features two groups of students — a show choir and a drama group. Mohana said the show opens with the Medley Group and their presentation of “100 Years of Broadway.”

“It’s about 40 minutes of the best show tunes from the last 100 years of Broadway — tunes that many older residents grew up with,” she said.

The second part of the show is a dramatic production entitled, “And Then They Came for Me: Remembering the World of Anne Frank.”

“The piece depicts the lives of Anne Frank and two other young characters from her diary,” Mohana said. “The story line jumps back and forth through time.”

The play also features an audio-visual component, in which footage of the actual survivors are projected onto a big screen placed on stage with the student actors.

“Footage of the characters in their older years will be played on screen while their younger selves will be acted out on stage by the students,” Mohana said. “There is one part in the play where one of the young characters actually appears to be talking to his older self on screen; it makes for some very interesting drama.”

The play has won American Theater awards by tackling some serious issues while being written sensitively enough for young audiences.

“This is a great way to introduce these disturbing topics of war and holocaust to audiences in fifth, sixth and seventh grades,” Mohana said. “As adults we have to shield our younger kids from the horrors of these stories, but children are resilient and intelligent; they can handle the subject matter if presented in the right way — and this play is the right way.”

She said three local pre-teens have parts in the play as Hitler youths.

“I didn’t think they really understood the magnitude of the information they were playing a part of,” Mohana said. “Just goes to show you how bright young kids are because they went home one night and had a lengthy conversation about the topic with their parents at dinner.”

The production serves as more than just merely entertainment. Students involved in the piece made a trip to New Orleans to meet and speak with a woman who fled to Monroe with her family during the Holocaust to get a deeper understanding of the parts they would be playing.

Mohana added that she admits the play is a little risky.

“It is definitely not light, fluffy or a safe call,” she said. “I don’t think there are many other high schools out there that would be willing to tackle such a seriously dramatic event.”

The two performances together is approximately two hours and 15 minutes including intermission. The Medley Group is being co-directed by Ginny Medina-Hamilton and Hannah Arceneaux.

Tickets cost $5 for students and $8 for adults. Adults who bring 10 students get one free adult admission. All tickets will be sold at the door starting 30 minutes before each performance. For information, call Mohana at 876-2551.

Chief Rabbis Ask Pope for Holocaust Studies Requirement in Catholic Schools


The rabbis want their Holocaustolatry in the minds and souls of children at SSPX schools as is already happening in the Novus Ordo. And note that both Rabbi David Rosen and Rabbi Shear Yashuv Cohen who the pope met with today are signers of the Holy See's Commission for Religious Relations with the Jews/Chief Rabbinate of "Israel" joint document which promotes the monumental lie that the "Noahide Laws" of the Talmud have a Biblical, even New Testament basis. See:

Papal Commission Promotes Noahide Laws
Jews ask pope for Holocaust studies in schools

Thu Mar 12, 2009

By Philip Pullella - Reuters

VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Israel's religious leaders asked Pope Benedict on Thursday to make Holocaust studies a required subject in Catholic schools, saying it could help combat anti-Semitism in future generations.

The two sides resumed a dialogue that was interrupted by the case of a Holocaust-denying bishop, which brought Catholic-Jewish relations to their lowest point in half a century.

The Israelis also asked that the Vatican take a strong stand against the draft final declaration of next month's U.N. conference on racism, a statement some countries view as hostile to Israel.

"May we suggest for your consideration that the history and the moral import of the Shoah ... become a required subject for inclusion in the curriculum of students at all Catholic schools the world over," Rabbi Shear Yashuv Cohen asked the pope during a meeting at the Vatican, using the Hebrew word for Holocaust.

Cohen, who is chief rabbi of Haifa, said such a move would "reinforce your strong stand against Holocaust denial and declaring anti-Semitism as a sin against God."

Rabbi David Rosen, International Director of Interreligious Affairs for the American Jewish Congress, told reporters afterwards: "I hope a recommendation (from the pope on Holocaust studies in Catholic schools) will come out of this latest crisis. That will be a silver lining to the cloud."

The meeting between representatives of Israel's chief Rabbinate and Vatican officials on Wednesday and Thursday was to have taken place last month but was postponed by the Jewish side because of the controversy over Bishop Richard Williamson.

On January 24, Benedict lifted the excommunication of Williamson and three other traditionalist bishops to try to heal a 20-year-old rift that began when they were thrown out of the Church for being ordained without permission. Williamson has said he believed there were no gas chambers and that no more than 300,000 Jews perished in Nazi concentration camps, compared with the figure of 6 million accepted by mainstream historians.

The pope has since made several major declarations to repudiate Williamson's views and condemn anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial.

On Thursday, Vatican officials announced Benedict would pay a visit to Rome's main synagogue in the autumn. "There's no firm date fixed yet," the chief Vatican spokesman, Father Federico Lombardi, told Italian media.

The Jewish delegation also asked the pope to instruct Vatican diplomats to take a strong stand against the current draft of the final statement of the U.N. Conference on Racism due to be held in Geneva April 20-24, known as Durban II.

The Vatican has said it will attend the conference but hoped for a change in the wording of its final declaration. Both Italy and the United States have said they will not attend unless there is a change of wording.
