A Double-headed Eagle--Jewish Right and Left Ideologues in America

 

by Lostalley


By reading excepts of the book "Uncivil Liberties--Deconstruct Libertarianism", I can agree with the tenet that American values should undergo constant deconstruction, and frankly, all values should be scrutinized or deconstructied if necessary, as time goes by. However, I speculate that the book has one particular target in mind--Tea Party. It's deceiving to criticize American libertarianism without exposing one of the pivotal forces forming contemporary American ideological power structure--Neoconservatism, i.e., Jewish ideologues, who exert considerable influence on American affairs ranging from domestic issues to foreign policy making. The radical American libertarianism the book talks about is a reactionary movement to counter globalization promoted by both American corporate and cultural elites, to which a disproportionally large percentage of Jews belong. Hence the mutually enhancing dichotomy: the right-wing Jews charter the course of history, while the left-wing liberal Jews deconstruct it afterwards, to have it both ways. 


At the moment I'm reading "The Jewish Century" by Yuri Slezkine, a Jewish immigrant from Russia, who is now a history professor at UC Berkeley. The book illuminates on the Jewish role in the First and Second World Wars and beyond. The current America is a reflection of that trend, according to Slezkine, who claims to be an authority on the history of the former Soviet Union and Eastern bloc. This leads me to another current crisis in the vicinity.


The root causes of Ukraine crisis are imbedded in the complexity of geopolitical rift, ethnic and religious friction, and economic spin. But the Neocons in American foreign policy establishment contributed (or even orchestrated) to the violent coup in collaboration with Ukraine Jewish oligarchs for a dual goal: toppling the pro-Russia president who was elected democratically and undermining Putin, to achieve Neocons' consistent objective--the total domination of the world market and resources, in the name of regime change and spreading democracy. It's over-simplistic to blame this group of Jews for all the wrongs going on in the world, but it's safe to say that their unique cacophony of misguided elitism, endless vengeance, insatiable greed and racial supremacy should be viewed as a destructive force to world peace and stability.

“Uncivil Liberties--Deconstruct Libertarianism”, A Collection of Essays, edited by Georgia Kelly


A Brief introduction:


Taking on the tenets of libertarianism and ideas associated with libertarianism, the authors challenge the American myths that promote rugged individualism, the lone hero, endless economic growth, and American Exceptionalism. They explore the role that ideologies play in helping us make sense of the world and revisit the experiment – still unproved – of American democracy. The six authors place the myths in historical and ideological contexts and explore the makings of civil society, social justice, and economic fairness. One author, who was a libertarian in his youth, critiques their philosophy using their own terms and arguments in a brilliant deconstruction.


Citing successful alternatives to laissez-faire and corporate capitalism, the authors promote existing models that celebrate the dignity of humankind by promoting empathy, cooperation, and respect. This book not only deconstructs, it constructs a possible world using concrete examples that have a proven success rate and high levels of human happiness.
