It has been
several years since I looked through my racists and anti-Semitic files. It is
like rummaging through garbage—I feel as though I need to wash my hands
afterwards. Tonight I had reason to pull them out and reread. I was interested
in some files on the Liberty Lobby—their paper Spotlight as well as the Institute
For Historical Review. All founded by Willis Carto. The latter is an
organization whose main purpose is to deny the Holocaust. One brochure I have from them, yellow with
age, entitled, “Leon Degrelle Epic: The Story of the Waffen begins with this.
A Million European Volunteers fighting on the Eastern Front—Fighting to save Europe, their homelands and families. Less than half of them were German, yet they all fought side by side—the first truly European army ever to exist.
The words are of
course referring to Hitler’s army.
In another paper,
tapes of conferences speeches are offered such as “The International Holocaust Controversy”
by Arthur R. Butz., or “SS ‘Confessions’ about Auschwitz.” These are denials of
the Holocaust.
I write this
because recently, Dr. Peter Makari, Executive for Middle East and Europe,
United Church of Christ and Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), two of the
denominations who along with most mainline denominations, including my
denomination, the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), sent a
letter to Congress asking them to investigate Israel before sending them anymore
military aid, gave an interview to the “successor” of Liberty Lobby, American Free
Press.[1]
The title of the interview is Churches
call for Congressional investigation on Military aid to Israel. The Simon Wiesenthal
Center in their press release,
Wiesenthal Center denounces church’s senior Middle East Executive interview
with extremist American Free Press explains
that American Free Press “is regarded as the successor to the now defunct Liberty
Lobby’s Spotlight.
American
free Press offers such books as Made in Israel: 9-11 and the Jewish Plot
Against America and Northern Traditions. Amazon includes, in their description
of the latter book,
“By combining academic level material with practical work the aim of the
book is to take contemporary pagan practices to a new level where they can be
accepted as a serious spiritual movement.” American Free Press gives this
description:
Faith in the old gods of the Germanic people has been reawakening in the modern world as the Christian religion is forcibly sucked into New World Order socialism and perverted by the forces of political correctness. But who are the ancient gods of the white race, and what do the ancient scriptures of the pagan religion mean?
On the site of American Free Press,
at the time of my writing, is an article and pod-cast, “Black gun violence leaves white man
paralyzed. There is an ad for anti-Semite identity preacher, Pete Peter’s, radio program. There
is a link, hard to find, to The Barnes Review with a link on that page back to
the American Free Press. The Barnes Review is connected to the American Free
Press. It was founded by the same person who founded the Institute For
Historical Review, Willis
Carto. On the Barnes Review are such books as “The
Work of All Ages: The Ongoing Plot to Rule the World from Biblical Times to the
Present,” which seems to be another version of the Protocol’s of the Elders
of Zion.
All of the
dirtiness of the Nazi area is on the pages of these two sites, and yet Makari
is willing to give them an interview. The letter sent to Congress by the
leadership of the mainline denominations was outrageous but the connection
between Makari and American Free Press is obscene. [2]
[1] Part of the letter stated, “We urge Congress to undertake careful
scrutiny to ensure that our aid is not supporting actions by the government of
Israel that undermine prospects for peace. We urge Congress to hold hearings to
examine Israel’s compliance, and we request regular reporting on compliance and
the withholding of military aid for non-compliance. “

Great work! You expose the link between two great tides of irrational hatred. Thank you.
Thank you for commenting Joseph.
