#1 Rabbi Altmann and his secretary were sitting in a coffeehouse in Berlin in 1935. "Herr Altmann," said his secretary, "I notice you're reading Der Stürmer! I can't understand why. A Nazi libel sheet! Are you some kind of masochist, or, God forbid, a self-hating Jew?"
"On the contrary, Frau Epstein. When I used to read the Jewish papers, all I learned about were pogroms, riots in Palestine, and assimilation in America. But now that I read Der Stürmer, I see so much more: that the Jews control all the banks, that we dominate in the arts, and that we're on the verge of taking over the entire world. You know – it makes me feel a whole lot better!"

#4 This article goes a bit heavy on the, ah, "cosmopolitan" thing to the outskirts of antisemitism. Other than that: it's right on the money.

#5 *Snort* This sounds like all of those Cold War Left wing paranoia about the fiendishly clever CIA...

#6 If you can ignore this author's vile nonsense about the joos, you'll see some absolutely brilliant insights here.

Our globalist elites have indeed created a kind of empire, and they are indeed scared.

Trump terrifies them. He called bullshit on the three foundations of the global empire - call it the global "condominium", or maybe "hedge fund": invite the world, invade the world, and build up China at your own people's expense.

The problem with cosmopolitan empires is they erode the justification for empire in the effort to integrate the empire. If all peoples are the same, if nations do not really matter, then why is one people at the top of the system?

Exactly. There is no such thing as a "global citizen." If such existed, America would cease to exist.

If nations don't matter, then American elites have no justification for ordering the world according to American rules.

In a truly cosmopolitan rules-based global order -- as opposed to the American Condominium/ Hedge Fund Americanus -- the dollar as reserve currency would cease to exist and with it, the justifications for the US Navy and US Air Force and all the trillions spent on their hardware.

Our elites have created a sham empire and in the process are destroying America.

We would have been far far better off had we turned inward after 1992 and focused on defending the homeland building a strong, traditional America with strong and secure borders, energy independence, low immigration, a balanced economy and a society without tribalism and race-Communist bullshit, one in which everyone belongs.
