Two years ago the state of Israel began selling a national bank, Leumi, to private investors. One of those investors was Ezra Merkin. That's him, shaking hands with Sharon in the picture at left. That picture was in today's Times, the only foto it apparently had for a piece on a Merkin fund called Ascot that gave all $1.8 billion that Merkin had raised from investors to Bernard Madoff. Merkin sent his investors a short note last week announcing the problem, just a couple years after he'd sent them a 54-page prospectus full of who-knows-what.
So Merkin put all his eggs in Madoff's basket. What are the consequences to Israel and by extension the lobby? (Times doesn't touch this angle.)

Rabbi Klaussner
After the war, a Zionist âreligiousâ leader, Rabbi Klaussner, who was in charge of displaced persons presented a report before the Jewish American Conference on May 2nd, 1948 :
"I am convinced people must be forced to go to Palestine…For them, an American dollar appears as the highest of goals. By the word "force", I am suggesting a programme. It served for the evacuation of the Jews in Poland, and in the history of the 'Exodus'… To apply this programme we must, instead of providing 'displaced persons' with comfort, create the greatest possible discomfort for them…At a second stage, a procedure calling upon the Haganah to harass the Jews."
this is a big deal and only getting bigger. Bernanke — the so-called "student" of the Great Depression, no one ever asks what grade he got — is actually putting in place preCrash institutions. GMAC (Merkin), Goldman, GE, all are forming bank holding companies to drain what little depositor cash is left out there. this is why we had Glass-Steagall to prevent industrial and speculative concerns from tapping money that people just WANTED TO KEEP SAFE, and away from the prying hands of the Madoffs Merkins GEs of this world. if the Fed hadnt guaranteed GE's $88 B commercial paper program — 20% of its total debt, and recently unable to roll — GE would be bankrupt. now, they'll be able to go bankrupt, take depositor money down with them, and leave the FDIC with the bill. as long as it's able to pay
The (fortunately) inimitable Shmuley has got a piece on JPost in which he somehow manages to get from Madoff to "jewish teens grinding their genitalia against one another on the dance floor."

This scandal and otherâs like it (nearly all involving Jews as main actors) is destroying America as a world center of commerce. The world has learned that a country corrupted by organized Jewry and their culture of greed simply canât be trusted.
From an AP article: âThe extent of the potential damage prompted a fund manager in London to lash out at U.S. regulators for failing to detect the fraud earlier. "I think now it is very difficult for people to invest in things that are meant to be regulated in America, because they haven fallen down in the job," Nicola Horlick, the manager of Bramdean Alternatives, which has 9 percent of its funds invested in Madoff's scheme, told the BBC. "All through the credit crunch this has been apparent," Horlick added. "This is the biggest financial scandal, probably, in the history.â
This isnât to say corrupt gentiles arenât neck deep in the crimes, but a culture of corruption is virul, and it looks like this one (as is often the case) can be traced primarily to corrupt Jews who operate in a culture of corruption. The kind of swindle they employed to set up and cover up the Palestinian gulag (underwritten by the American taxpayer) was clearly also employed to set up an infrastructure of corruption used to rip off billions of dollars from millions of Americans.
Cosmic Justice: Naïve America is paying for the sin of allowing these systematically corrupt, institutionally malice grifters to set up shop in the US and use it as a headquarters for their crimes. This is a moral and character failure of the entire contemporary US Establishment, from Left to Right. Way to go guys: youâve hawked generations of future Americans into debt and misery, all because you wanted to coddle the âpersecutedâ Jews and do a half-ass, lazy-man's reenactment of the WWII generation's accomplishments. Pathetic.
"Naïve America is paying for the sin of allowing these systematically corrupt, institutionally malice grifters to set up shop in the US and use it as a headquarters for their crimes."
Ed, I don't know how seriously you're being taken on this blog, but this is really "naive" on your part. Rich and powerful Americans have never been naive, only ruthless. For 40 years, Jews have had the increasing opportunity and ability to do the establishment's dirty work, having become part of the establishment, through a number of means, from the financial to the professional to the educational to the ideological. If anything, it's ordinary Jew–who have trusted the big shots to bring "Jewish values" to their enterprises, or just trust them at some level because of their last names–who have been naive.
This country is divided along class and race lines, not along religious or ethnic lines.
I need to create a blog entry on Madoff, who probably deserves a major commendation for the damage he has caused Judonia.
I already put up an article entitled Menahem-Mendel on Wall Street in response to a question of Phil's about deregulation.
Yet, this entry is also relevant here because the network of Jewish-Zionist gatekeepers and facilitators exists just as much in the finance industry, in the finance industry regulatory agencies, and in DOJ enforcement offices as in the news industry.
David, I don't quite see why you retain 'race' as a significant category along with 'class' (obviously you mean 'Black' Americans, 'Hispanic' Americans, and 'White' Americans), but not 'religion or ethnicity' (by which you presumably mean Jewish Americans, Christian Americans, Muslim Americans, etc.) In what way is 'religion or ethnicity' a less reliable guide, in what way is it less correlated to collective political behaviour than 'race'?
Because, after all, since you have said, in essence, don't forget there are poor Jews as well as rich ones, why not say equally, there are rich Blacks as well as poor ones? Why is Jewish 'ethnicity' negated by 'class' analysis but Black 'race' not so?
Feels good, Phil, doesn't it? Too bad you were born too late to enjoy the "correction" to all this that occurred 1939-45. 'Course had you been on the wrong side of the Atlantic, you would have gone up the chimney as well, so you wouldn't have been able to blog about it, or whatever the technology of the time would have provided.
"Why is Jewish 'ethnicity' negated by 'class' analysis but Black 'race' not so?"
Because slavery and institutionalized racism has its own powerful relation to class conflict in the history of this country, not significantly changed by Obama's success. Jews used to be Jews. They're now white. They got to be white for lots of reasons in postwar American, mostly basic middle class economics, but partly because some Jewish intellectuals developed theories as to why the Civil Rights Movement went "to far." Those people, like Nathan Glazer, Norman Podhoretz, Seymour Martin Lipsett, Irving Kristol, Daniel Bell, founded neoconservative ideology, which originated in this backlash, not in terms of foreign policy, although Israel's emergence as a U.S. ally around 1967 and during the Vietnam War helped tie these strands together. But even then, at least the spoiled radicals that were being pounded on by the Jewish anti-communists (inclulding people like Irving Howe) were still Jewish, sometimes "red diaper babies."
WASPs loved this stuff. Jews were no longer suspect as radicals.
Jews are fully assimilated in white American culture. They wield disproportionate power in terms of their numbers. They exercise that power in some ways that are peculiar to Jewish interests, especially in relation to Israel. But none of this obviates the interests of the general ruling class, in relation to Middle East oil or finanace capitalism. In my opinion.
The idea that the interests of wealthy and powerful Jews are of a different order than wealthy and powerful people in general, white, black, or otherwise, is anti-Semitism in my book. And that's the first time I've ever made that charge in any context such as this. I'm the most publicly outspoken Jew against Zionism in my Big Ten college town–by a long shot, with no real company whatsoever.
I'm saying we need to get the analysis right. I don't have all the answers. This blog is a start. I think too much time is wasted on understanding what makes Jews different from white people. Some groups of Jews may be whites on steroids, but so are a lot of groups of non-Jewish whites.
OK, David, thanks for that thoughful rsponse, I am glad I took the trouble to pose my question with such care. I have to log off for the night (u.k. time) and get some sleep, but I shall come back to you on this.
@David Green: "The idea that the interests of wealthy and powerful Jews are of a different order than wealthy and powerful people in general, white, black, or otherwise, is anti-Semitism in my book."
Why would the interests of wealthy and powerful Jews necessarily be completely congruent with those of an undifferentiated wealthy and powerful elite? Jews have an emotional attachment to Israel and are taught to think of themselves as a people who "stand apart" from the broader society into which they are integrated. It's pretty clear that catering to the Zion Lobby's desires to destabilize and fracture the Middle East flies in the face of the interests of promoting stability that had served the interests of the oil producing class. Friendly Arab potentates see their grip on power weakened thru their nations friendship with a country that resolutely supports Israel.
How can it possibly be antiseimitic to acknowledge that the Jewish elite pursues interests that do nothing to advance the prosperity or security of America? These are simple facts that are readily observable to even the casual observer of America's Middle East policy.
David, you needn't be defensive about acknowledging that there is a lot of old fashioned antisemitism on this blog. Given that a Jewish swindler of historic proportions has just been uncovered, we can now expect a big display in all of it's ugliness.
Use these threads to identify who they are, so you can avoid wasting your time arguing with them. I think Phil should scrub them, but it is his blog.
Why would anybody put all his eggs in one basket?
How ironic that David Green has no problem speaking disparagingly of WASP's yet he cries "antisemitism" at the very idea that elite Jews have interests and an agenda that is not completely shared by other elites.
Reading David Green's leftist analysis reminds me of just how radically different people like Philip Weiss and "Ed" really are and it reminds me of how stifling traditional materialist ideological frameworks are when it comes to providing insight into the machinations of our political elites.
The influential Jews are not simply "whites on steroids." This is because a foreign state has at the very least their equal allegiance–to the point of conflating USA interests with Israel's. Often much more, hence the drum roll for war on Iraq, and now, Iran. Really,
is that so hard to see?
Would Phil's wife support England if England was the current power in the
original English mandate lands? I doubt it, though of course I don't
really know.
And, RE syvanen's comments: Yeah, let's scrub Phil's blog of those
commenters who can't help but noting the proportion of American Jews involved in financial scams that are bringing the USA down on its knees, slowly killing average Americans….
It's just natural for Jews to notice their own in any accomplishment, you know, "Hey, he's a Jew." They brag about
them always, and use them to sell the gentiles on how great it is
to have Jews on our side, the humane side–but when the facts
come in otherwise, the question is, "Why do you single out that
prick is Jewish?"
Disgusting.
Yeah, the Jews are a special group all right, they think so for sure,
but what is the net effect over history (I like to dream this includes goys) of this special people?
I don't claim to have all the answers. I know some commenters would love to see that Madoff, Dreier, etc. have invested themselves with settlers, Likudniks, etc. That does not appear to be the case, perhaps to the chagrin of some.
When people make a lot of money, through nefarious means are otherwise (or let's say through less nefarious capitalistic means, allowing for the fact that what is legal is often worse than what is illegal), they like to become philanthropists. Jews are more likely to give to Jewish-related causes, but not necessarily Israel.
I don't see how you get dual loyalty out of most of this. America is a big pond, and a lot of these guys like to be a big fish in a smaller pond. They go on a trip, have dinner with an Israeli general (there's about a million of them to go around), and feel like they're a big shot defender of the faith–in fact, western civilization (notice how popular "Judeo-Christian" has become in recent decades).
Israel, Jews, the Holocaust, have all become convenient for elites in this country. Privileged whites can't claim to be victims in the way privilged Jews can. That's why the holocaust has become an incomparable genocide in our culture.
Privileged Jews have a lot of answer for, but no more so than privileged non-Jews. They're not a different order of ownership/ruling class.
wake up, kid. there are 250,000 goyische combat troops tied down in Iraq and Afghanistan, not in Ireland or England or Europe or Africa or Asia ad infinitum.
@Vikash and Ed,
Wow! Fantastic analyses! The whole "left–right" thing is total bullshit, on par with the argument that Jews don't have (and aggressively pursue) their ethnic interests which regularly conflict with the interests of gentile elites and middle classes for that matter.
For what it's worth, I think David Green makes the better argument here. 'Big money' WASPS have been getting away with financial (and other) 'highway robbery' for eons!
syvanen and David Green both appear to be leftist or left-leaning, hence their demands for politically correct censorship and purges (âscrubbingâ of comments, âbanningâ of commenters, as sayvanen once suggested) and their insistence on a class analysis of the "Jewish problem" (ala Marx) instead of a comprehensive analysis that includes class, race, religion, and culture (although Green does throw in the neo-Leftists anti-white racial analysis, as well). The Left is very narrow-minded and dogmatic, and that is what limits its ability to deal with problems like corrupt factions of organized Jewry run amok. In fact, as do certain factions of organized Jewry, the Left itself insists human beings are all cattle with no innate differences who can be socially engineered in this direction or that to the needs of their overseers, and that anyone who says otherwise is a âbigot.â Of course, Jews and, on the Left, the Party Elite, donât consider themselves cattle; theyâre the stockyard managers. Gee, I wonder where that mentality came from? Also, note how Socialists love to try to socially-engineer Christian populations out of their âirrationalâ beliefs, but when it comes to Jews, any attempts to socially-engineer them suddenly become âracistâ or âanti-Semitic.â Why is that?
In many important ways, Leftists actually aid and abet corrupt organized Jewry by sending inquiries into its chicanery off on these class analysis-based red herrings. It's unclear if guys like syvanen and David Green are part of the scheme, or if they are just useful idiots, putty in the hands of the pharisaic hierarchy at the top of organized Jewry. What is clear is that neither Palestinians nor Iraqis will attain justice (nor Americans, for that matter)so long as leftists and socialists keep putting up politically correct, left-wing smoke screens that allow corrupt organized Jewry and its gentile corporatist partners in crime to escape out the back door of history time and again by screaming "racism" and "anti-semitism." All that has changed between Soviet Jewish Bolshevism and Stalinism in Russia, and America today, is that the greedy, power-mad atheistic Stalinists have been switched out for greedy, power-mad atheistic Corporatists. Corrupt organized Jewry has remained the constant.
The arrest of financier Bernard Madoff Thursday for operating a "Ponzi scheme" costing investors $50 billion made the TV network news. Curiously, a lawsuit the same day against Clinton Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin for defrauding Citibank shareholders of more than $122 billion, also described as a "Ponzi scheme," got no airplay whatsoever. As we shall see, Rubin, a Director of Citibank, profited from the shady practices that destroyed the financial system and sent the world's economies into a tailspin. Then, to repair the damage, he and his banker friends put the taxpayer on the hook for trillions. Rubin didn't get the same publicity as Madoff because of his close connection to Barack Obama. Robert Rubin's son Jamie was Obama's main Wall Street fund raiser and is now one of his principal advisers. More significant, Obama's economic team consists of Rubin's proteges [...] The Times of London has already dubbed them the "Robert Rubin Memorial All Stars." link to rense.com
"The idea that the interests of wealthy and powerful Jews are of a different order than wealthy and powerful people in general, white, black, or otherwise, is anti-Semitism in my book."
Right, because black rich guys, and WASP rich guys all donate a lot of their money and time and effort to promote the interests of Israel in America.
Oh wait – you are a total idiot, David.
Jews living amongst themselves in their own country is the only solution to the Jewish problem – this is why I am a Zionist. As long as Jews live among non-Jews they will ALWAYS find too many ways to rip them off and eventually they will come to control many portions of the culture (government, media, law, finance, etc) – this provokes anti-Semitism amongst the original inhabitants of the country. This historical cycle has happened time and time again…and it's happening again now in America. Jews have NEVER managed to live in harmony with the people they settle among and as a result they must live in their own country, both for their own protection and as a way to protect other groups as well.
"[Jews] are a parasitic people. We have no roots in the soil, there is no ground beneath our feet. And we are parasites not only in an economic sense, but in spirit, in thought, in poetry, in literature, and in our virtues, our ideals, our higher human aspirations. Every alien movement sweeps us along, every wind in the world carries us. We in ourselves are almost non-existent, so of course we are nothing in the eyes of other people either." – Zionist Aaron David Gordon
Ed I wonder if you are know how many Jews are in the dark about what is going on in power? Most are dissuaded from enquiry. Those in the know police their flock with an iron fist, the family being the place for punishment. . . . .. . . . .. .. . . . You are running a pretty sophisticated argument against the left. And many of us just wish for an alternative to this corrupt system gladly look at the left as a salvation. Yesterday on your blog you argued for Christian values, Well that isn't an option for most Jews, they are compromised into a de facto mafioso, and would be gambling with their livelihood to do such a thing. Independently wealthy like Dylan can afford the choice. . .. . .. . .. .
This is probably the most interesting, important and intelligent 'discussion' I've ever read on line. There have been so many good points made. I think Mr. Green serves the discussion best when he points to the commanality of culpability.
Let us harken back to the years before World War II when a certain Prescot Bush, WASP scumbag extrodinaire, with the aid of a very prominent Jewish banking family from Belgium, Shylockian dirt balls all, funnelled millions of dollars to the fledgling Nazi Party in Germany.
There is a long association in this these truly equal opportunity enterprises. Of course, there's the the Zionists, the Neo-cons, the oil companies, the CIA, the Mafia and all its former Soviet satellite spin offs and everyone just looking for a buck…….also, dare we mention the government within a government controlled at this late date by defense contractors. When you roll them all together what's it spell boys and girls? 911.
@ D. Green: "Privileged Jews have a lot of answer for, but no more so than privileged non-Jews. They're not a different order of ownership/ruling class."
Are you arguing that privileged Jews don't tenaciously support Zionism in greater proportions than privileged gentiles? I'd also like to see a study about where and how privileged Jews get their money. Sure, some of them are producers, but I would bet the overwhelming majority get it from the finance, media, entertainment, and legal industries as opposed to actually producing something tangible other than questionable "services." Does your blanket class analysis distinguish between honestly earned money and ill gotten gains?
You are correct, however, in that corrupt gentile parasites in certain positions and industries have benefited by leaching on to the well-established organized Jewish victim/Holocaust card to leverage the US into war, including the warmongering, Big government political class ("war is the health of the State") and State-connected war profiteering industries, and also media, which sells more papers and attracts more eyeballs during war. The parasites DO work together at the expense of the host organism. They always have. You just don't want to admit that corrupt factions organized Jewry always seem to manage to find a way to make themselves indispensable to the grift wherever organized Jewry goes. Phil Weiss is one of the rare Jews in the world who refuses to pretend not to notice this blatantly obvious fact, which has repeated itself throughout history.
The more I think about it, the more I realize how much damage to the world left-wing Jews have done by running interference on behalf of their tribe, and by refusing to see what is self-evident to anyone who has studied our current situation, or who has studied the role of organized Jewry in history. How many lives could be saved worldwide by simply deporting the worst of the Jews to Israel and keeping them there under lock and key? Millions. Once that is done, corrupt gentile parasites can be dealt with in short order, too.
Either your serious about human justice, or your not. Anyone who truly is shouldnât spend even one second defending organized Jewry, because thatâs another second it and its partners will utilize to screw-over humanity.
David Green said :
"If anything, it's ordinary Jew–who have trusted the big shots to bring "Jewish values" to their enterprises, or just trust them at some level because of their last names–who have been naive.
I agree with that. Ordinary jews have been dupes.
But then you said this:
" I think too much time is wasted on understanding what makes Jews different from white people."
Are you saying non jew spend too much time on how jews are different from gentiles?
Or jews spend too much time on how they are different from all other people?
And you said this:
"or just trust them at some level because of their last names–"
So if jews invested their money based on a "jewish name"…who is maintaining their ethnic "differentness" in their dealings and thinking by making decisions based on someone being jewish?
Without citing a bunch of quotes from present day zionist and jews I think everyone sees that Jews actually obsess over their difference from "others". Even here on Phil's blog he himself obsesses about the superior jewish morality, as in different from or better than non jewish ethics and bemoans where it has gone.
Many times I have referred to the jewish groups mentality as a cult.
In this country where differences disappear into the melting pot more quickly than most countries… the jews have worked hard to maintain their differeness…thru the holocaust,thru "peoplehood' ethnics, thru alleigence to Israel, thru the whole myth.
The obsession with jewishness is a jewish obsession. And naturally when a group of people hold themselves out to be 'different", demand exceptions because of their differentness, make their "seperate" differentness their identity, they will be regarded as different by others…and according to their behavior be resented or admired as a 'different people".
I don't think I have ever seen a group as obsessed with themsleves. The first thing jews thought about Madoff was he was a jew…not just a crook.
Generally when the rest of world looks at crime and corruption their first thought about the criminal isn't is it bad for the gentiles or the Asians or etc..
I have watched this jewish/zionist and Israeli thing, the hawks and the doves, the good and the bad, a long time and have given up thinking the majority of jews will ever think of themselves as part of anything but the jewish tribal cult and Israel.
I remember Sen Shumer saying during the Bolton UN confirmation hearings that a vote against Bolton was a vote against Israel. How about that?…a US jewish senator whose main concern in appointing a UNITED STATES UN ambassaor was how he would represent Israel…a foreign country.
I have no hate for jews…but please get out of my country's government and foreign and domestic policy.
By- Your- Own- Choice.. you are not one of us. America is not your country ..your country, "Isr'merica" does not exist, there is no such hybrid country. And imposing your differentness and your foreign alleigence on our country's government is bad for America and Americans.
You are entitled to be as different as you want to be but you are not entitled to meddle in our affairs for the benefit of only your select ethnic/religious group or your alleigence to a foreign country.
This is as nice as I know how to tell you. You are heading for trouble.
*When I say "you" I am addressing jews who fit this description ,not all jews or You necessarily.
Ed, you are wasting your time attacking them for being leftists, since they are not anti-zionists, nor even revolutionaries, so you are just restarting the endless boring spculative discussion about "isms". I, on the other hand, am both a leftist and an anti-zionist, so you should be attacking me. Like the original Black Panthers, I have a background in marxist class analysis. I appreciate that Blacks who join marxist revolutionary parties often discover that they are run by paternalistic Jewish 'progressive' ̩lites, which regard themselves as the only people fit to organise a revolution, and expect the Blacks to play supporting roles. One can compare the early Soviet Union РRead up on the arrogance of the Jewish cadres under Lenin and Trotsky, and their atrocious double standards, by all means, but also, take seriously the fact that once he'd got rid of Trotsky, Stalin did his level best to kick as many of these arrogant Jewish cadres as he could out of the Party.
The argument that contempt between Whites and Blacks in the US is deliberately fostered by Jews on both sides, running their own false-flag, pseudo- White Supremacist and pseudo- Black Supremacist groups, just to stir up hatred, is very plausible indeed.
Yet, it's pretty hard to have an intelligent discussion with all the crosstalk about inherent cultual attributes. Jews, like any other group, are taught to trust "their own kind." That obscures who benefits in such relationships. A class analysis is vital, insults to the "politically correct" left notwithstanding. Noam Chomsky, Norman Finkelstein, and many others need to be taken very seriously to put all this in perspective.
What I'd like to know if who syvanen thinks is an anti-semite; and perhaps he/she would like to give an example of such from said individual. It is certainly a very serious indictment of all who use this blog so I think it is quite important to know who the villains are.
Seriously.
Finkelstein has repudiated marxism, and I don't really want to know why, I am prepared to leave the man with his spiritual privacy intact. Chomsky has very carefully avoided marxism altogether. This is not, in my view, insignificant. Anyway, I consider the US Left to be extraordinarily degenerate, since it has followed the Frankfurt School path of titillating the middle class student youth with pseudo 'progressive' fantasies about sex, as if this was a strategic way of broading the class struggle, whereas it is obviously the reverse, which is why the Frankfurt School were brought to the USA by the then-OSS, now CIA.

@RB: "Read up on the arrogance of the Jewish cadres under Lenin and Trotsky, and their atrocious double standards, by all means, but also, take seriously the fact that once he'd got rid of Trotsky, Stalin did his level best to kick as many of these arrogant Jewish cadres as he could out of the Party."
Youâre right, of course, about indoctrinated Jews not really being authentic Leftists revolutionaries. The Jewish Bolsheviks did indeed want to overthrow the existing order, but more to ultimately satisfy their own pent up greed and ambition and to pursue their ethnocentric grift than to help âthe peopleâ or attain social justice, which was just window dressing. But youâre wrong that Stalinists were any different, excepting the ethnocentrist angle. Stalinists were murderers, Jewish Bolsheviks were murders, Chinese Communists were/are murderers, Zionists are murderers. "Murderers from the beginning." All of them.
And of course, contemporary indoctrinated American âleft-liberalâ Jews arenât ever going to seriously challenge the current corrupt Zionist status-quo. Theyâre more intellectual hipster-poseurs who donât really want to leave their ethnocentric cocoon, either, and deep down like the idea of getting rich at the host organism's expense along with their Zionist cousins. Black Marxists are no different, either. And of course, most American white gentile left-liberals are of a similarly shallow, lazy identity.
What you refuse to see, Rowan, is that pretty much the entire Left, except for a few disciplined intellectual theoreticians who live in a fantasyland, is comprised of lazy moochers. How is any revolution of lazy moochers ever going to succeed at anything, long term? Youâre really wasting your time, Rowan. Youâre wasting everyoneâs time. Lifeâs short, history is long.
Free Will, free markets, self-responsibility, accountability to self, family, and a compassionate God, and anti-Empire, anti-Statist (moochers), anti-Judeofascist: Thatâs the Christian ethos ticket!
I am wasting everyone's time? I don't think so. Yours maybe, so I shall endevour to avoid responding to you and making you waste any more time reading me.
I need to create a blog entry on Madoff, who probably deserves a major commendation for the damage he has caused Judonia.
Joachim,
What is left of you as a person, and what positive effect can you possibly have on others, when you're so drenched in hatred of a people? What's the point? "Social justice?"…"Progress?" Do you really believe anything good will really emerge from so much aggression?
