The Practice of Ritual Defamation

The Practice of Ritual Defamation

How values, opinions and beliefs are controlled in democratic societies.

Laird Wilcox
1990

Defamation is the destruction or attempted destruction of the reputation, status, character or standing in the community of a person or group of persons by unfair, wrongful, or malicious speech or publication. For the purposes of this essay, the central element is defamation in retaliation for the real or imagined attitudes, opinions or beliefs of the victim, with the intention of silencing or neutralizing his or her influence, and/or making an example of them so as to discourage similar independence and "insensitivity" or non-observance of taboos. It is different in nature and degree from simple criticism or disagreement in that it is aggressive, organized and skillfully applied, often by an organization or representative of a special interest group, and in that it consists of several characteristic elements.


Ritual Defamation is not ritualistic because it follows any prescribed religious or mystical doctrine, nor is it embraced in any particular document or scripture. Rather, it is ritualistic because it follows a predictable, stereotyped pattern which embraces a number of elements, as in a ritual.

The elements of a Ritual Defamation are these:

In a ritual defamation the victim must have violated a particular taboo in some way, usually by expressing or identifying with a forbidden attitude, opinion or belief. It is not necessary that he "do" anything about it or undertake any particular course of action, only that he engage in some form of communication or expression.

The method of attack in a ritual defamation is to assail the character of the victim, and never to offer more than a perfunctory challenge to the particular attitudes, opinions or beliefs expressed or implied. Character assassination is its primary tool.

An important rule in ritual defamation is to avoid engaging in any kind of debate over the truthfulness or reasonableness of what has been expressed, only condemn it. To debate opens the issue up for examination and discussion of its merits, and to consider the evidence that may support it, which is just what the ritual defamer is trying to avoid. The primary goal of a ritual defamation is censorship and repression.

The victim is often somebody in the public eye - someone who is vulnerable to public opinion - although perhaps in a very modest way. It could be a schoolteacher, writer, businessman, minor official, or merely an outspoken citizen. Visibility enhances vulnerability to ritual defamation.

An attempt, often successful, is made to involve others in the defamation. In the case of a public official, other public officials will be urged to denounce the offender. In the case of a student, other students will be called upon, and so on.
In order for a ritual defamation to be effective, the victim must be dehumanized to the extent that he becomes identical with the offending attitude, opinion or belief, and in a manner which distorts it to the point where it appears at its most extreme. For example, a victim who is defamed as a "subversive" will be identified with the worst images of subversion, such as espionage, terrorism or treason. A victim defamed as a "pervert" will be identified with the worst images of perversion, including child molestation and rape. A victim defamed as a "racist" or "anti-Semitic" will be identified with the worst images of racism or anti-Semitism, such as lynchings or gas chambers.

Also to be successful, a ritual defamation must bring pressure and humiliation on the victim from every quarter, including family and friends. If the victim has school children, they may be taunted and ridiculed as a consequence of adverse publicity. If they are employed, they may be fired from their job. If the victim belongs to clubs or associations, other members may be urged to expel them.

Any explanation the victim may offer, including the claim of being misunderstood, is considered irrelevant. To claim truth as a defense for a politically incorrect value, opinion or belief is interpreted as defiance and only compounds the problem. Ritual defamation is often not necessarily an issue of being wrong or incorrect but rather of "insensitivity" and failing to observe social taboos.

An interesting aspect of ritual defamation as a practice is its universality. It is not specific to any value, opinion or belief or to any group or subculture. It may be used for or against any political, ethnic, national or religious group. It may, for example, by anti-Semites against Jews, or by Jews against anti-Semites; by rightists against leftists or by leftists against rightists, and so on.


The power of ritual defamation lies entirely in its capacity to intimidate and terrorize. It embraces some elements of primitive superstitious belief, as in a "curse" or "hex." It plays into the subconscious fear most people have of being abandoned or rejected by the tribe or by society and being cut off from social and psychological support systems.


The weakness of ritual defamation lies in its tendency toward overkill and in its obvious maliciousness. Occasionally a ritual defamation will fail because of poor planning and failure to correctly judge the vulnerability of the victim or because its viciousness inadvertently generates sympathy.


It’s important to recognize and identify the patterns of a ritual defamation. Like all propaganda and disinformation campaigns it is accomplished primarily through the manipulation of words and symbols. It is not used to persuade, but to punish. Although it may have cognitive elements, its thrust is primarily emotional. Ritual Defamation is used to hurt, to intimidate, to destroy, and to persecute, and to avoid the dialogue, debate and discussion upon which a free society depends. On those grounds it must be opposed no matter who tries to justify its use.

QUOTES

"I'll confess it, at least: like thousands of other typical Jewish kids of my generation, I was reared as a Jewish nationalist, even a quasi-separatist. Every summer for two months for 10 formative years during my childhood and adolescence I attended Jewish summer camp.

There, each morning, I saluted a foreign flag, dressed in a uniform reflecting its colors, sang a foreign national anthem, learned a foreign language, learned foreign folk songs and dances, and was taught that Israel was the true homeland.

Emigration to Israel was considered the highest virtue, and, like many other Jewish teens of my generation, I spent two summers working in Israel on a collective farm while I contemplated that possibility.

More tacitly and subconsciously, I was taught the superiority of my people to the gentiles who had oppressed us. We were taught to view non-Jews as untrustworthy outsiders, people from whom sudden gusts of hatred might be anticipated, people less sensitive, intelligent, and moral than ourselves. We were also taught that the lesson of our dark history is that we could rely on no one."
Stephen Steinlight (Former Director of National Affairs for the American Jewish Committee, one of the largest and most powerful Jewish organization in America)


"At the basis of Israeli arrogance lies the idea that this really is a special nation with special traits that are shared by no other nation. You can see that among Israeli travelers abroad; you can hear it from anyone who comes into contact with foreigners; you can sense it in the deeper currents of Israeli policy. The Americans are "foolish," the Indians are "primitive," the Germans are "square," the Chinese are "strange," the Scandinavians are "naive," the Italians are "clowns" and the Arabs are ... Arabs.

Only we know what's good for us, and not only for us but for the entire world. There is nothing like Israeli ingenuity, there is nothing similar to Jewish intelligence, the Jewish brain invents new ideas for us like no other brain, because we're the best, bro".

The achievement of the individual immediately becomes a communal achievement, the communal achievement immediately becomes more irrefutable proof of Israel's superiority. "The crystal is ours;" "The secret of our existence;" "National pride;" and the "Israeli brain" screamed the headlines in a tasteless and unfounded display at the news of the individual prize."
Gideon Levy describing the supremacy of the "Israeli" society. ( A Leftist, I doubt that he is a self-hater anti-Semite)

My Jewish Problem, Jewish Superiority and Jewish Elite

"Still it is interesting that my friend and I shared a premise: Jews are superior; for whatever reason Jewish culture is superior in areas of modern civilized achievement"

"In discussing My Jewish Problem on this blog, that’s a core Jewish value I would point to: Jewish exceptionalism. Belief in that idea underlies so much of Jewish social attitudes and achievement. (Maugham extols it in The Alien Corn; Hemingway throws it in Robert Cohn’s face in The Sun Also Rises). Larry Summers sought to broach the issue of Jewish innate intelligence in his notorious women-and-science speech of January 2005:


"My mother, my father, my grandparents, a family feeling, us-ness, in distinction to the Them."

"I had some us-nessfrom my family, a lot of it, but bridled at it. Is it good for the Jews?question bugged the hell out of me."

"I see Jewish as this great civilization.that I am part of. That transcends borders, and it's not Zionist. Zionism is like Shabbetai Tzvi, It's a big chapter in a long story. Jews will survive this one too. Jews is: a sense of difference, yes, inevitably of elite identity, that's part of Jewish history and one I struggle with. Jewish is a Story, a myth…"

"We’re just smarter, that’s why".
============================
Philip Mondoweiss(he describes himself as a Progressive Jew)


Every Jew, men and even women and children, brings about the existence of the entire creation, they become masters over the world, and thus every single creation owes them recognition for this good

Being that through the Jew all beings were created, he therefore becomes the master over all of them

The Jew is in complete control, particularly over physical matters. The physicality of the world itself has to recognize the good that the Jew has accomplished

Through the Jews they came into being, and their true existence is through their unity with the True Being
“Since G-d and the Jews are one, each Jew becomes a True Being, and thus able to bring about all of creation

“He (the Jew) therefore has control over all of creation and not only that, but they owe him thanks and are indeed thankful

The Rebbe Menachem Schneerson Excerpt of Sicha 21 Elul, 5749


"The subjugation they must accept consists of being on a lower level, scorned and humble. They must never raise their heads against Israel, but must remain subjugated under their rule. They may never be appointed over a Jew in any matter whatsoever" Rabbi Moses Ben Maimon



“There are two different and distinct entities: the human being, and the Jew who is part of G-d

We are a G-dly people, we have G-dly souls. Our place is in Heaven, in fact higher than Heaven because Heaven is also a created place, and we are a part of G-d”

“We are to treat other Jews are Divine beings, because that’s what they are”




"….. the Jew has an additional mission, and therefore an additional soul."
"It is this soul that gives the Jews the power to be G-dly in a human world and supernatural in a natural universe.

Rabbi Shlomo Chein


We have proved ourselves to be the leaders of enlightenment, progress and revolution wherever we have traveled.."

"If it were not for Jews, there would be no concept of human dignity, of meaning and purpose, of the right of every person to education and knowledge, of social justice and of the value of world peace

Rabbi Tzvi Freeman



“The Jewish soul is the energy given to the Jew to be able to carry out this mission…… The soul can perhaps be explained as a "microcosm of G-d".

Rabbi Shlomo Chein, Director of Chabad @ UC S.Cruz in California and editor of askmoses.com


Israel would be "a light unto the nations," leading mankind toward a perfected future.”

“when the true story of history is finally told, it will be shown to what extent the Jewish People influenced history, helping lead the world to its eventual Messianic climax.”

Rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburg

Jews as the "conscience of the world…. In a redemptive state the Jewish People will reassume their more natural role as the head, leading the world to a new age.”

“The natural inclination of the Jewish People is to elevate themselves to the level of mind and leadership, which naturally uplifts the entire world.”

Israel been able to maintain its unique, essential nature and thereby greatly influence the world

Every attempt to assimilate among the nations has brought disaster

“Even after the nations recognize the source of light emanating from the Jewish People, there will still need to be a separation.”

http://www.inner.org/LEADER/leader18.htm

Jews are different from human beings in their actions and consequences of their actions:

"A Jews, although he has transgressed, is a Jew."

Based on the teachings of the Lubavitcher Rebbe


“It aims to "normalize" the Jew, redefining him as a universal citizen of the world. "We are the same as everybody else, although we have our own customs, language and land." It doesn't work. It doesn't work because we are not the same as everyone else. We are essentially different. We have a life mission that is totally different. We have a soul that is totally different. We have totally different spiritual needs. We have totally different spiritual conflicts.”

By Rabbi Eliezier Shmetov, the Chabad-Lubavitch emissary in Montevideo, Uruguay


Jews as different in levels of mercy, modesty, and acts of goodness

“A Jew is different in that he has a neshomah, an additional level to the life force of other human beings.”

Dr. Nachum Goldman who was described as "a Jew and a Zionist with a profound awareness of Jewish culture and history, yet at the same time a "citizen of the world.",

Goldman described North African Jewry as "catastrophic immigration"



Professor Chaim Sheba believed in the "genetic supremacy" of Ashkanazi Jews so he ran the programme of

mass radiation of North African Jewish children!



kill the Arabs....butcher the Arabs ... I hate Arabs


the "Israeli" army is guilty of one thing:

"they didn't wipe them All out"



"Kill them all"


Deport the Jewish "Negros"


300 rabbis sign "a document which warns that "it is forbidden in the Torah to sell a house or a field in the land of Israel to a Gentile."



In 2003, the theorist and historian "Israeli" military strategist, Martin van Creveld declared the following:

" "We possess several hundred atomic warheads and rockets and can launch them at targets in all directions, perhaps even at Rome Most European capitals are targets for our air force ... We have the capability to take the world down with us. And I can assure you that that will happen before Israel goes under"


"Then the people of Israel made this vow to the Lord:


"If you will hand these people over to us, we will completely destroy all their towns" (including the inhabitants of the land)
The Hebrew Bible: Numbers 21:2

The Hebrew Bible also "blessed" "Israel" with a special Mitzvah

a Commandment to exterminate the Amalekites and the seven Canaanite nations

Not to forget the Milchemet Reshut (לחמת רשות)

"Jewish Wars of Aggression"

“milchemet reshut ... a war of aggression

"The Torah permits such a war to expand the borders of Eretz Yisrael, to capture captives, or because the King of Israel decides that war is good for the country and for God”


Milchemet reshut is war against other nations to enlarge Eretz Yisrael and increase its prestige.”

The supremacist and genocidal Chabad Rebbe Schneerson

is praised by NY Times as the "Oracle of Crown Heights"

Furthermore, he gets rewarded with the Gold Medal by the USA congress


Such is the "elitist" Culture with "great civilization"

which
has always been at the "helm of social justice"

They are the "champions of progress and morality"

"Love thy neighbour", they "teach" us

"That which is hateful to you, don't do unto others", "Our Golden Rule",
they say

Such supremacists are celebrated in MSM



Of course such book does not deserve their attention neither nor their outcry


From all the above there is only one
Conclusion:

nahida, is "racist, anti-Semite"
