"Minority Rule, Majority Hate"

This is a review of a book by Yale University Prof. Amy Chua, "World on Fire" which brings to light the current world situation.

It makes for very interesting reading. I haven't read the book myself, but from this review, I gather the cream of the worlds intellectuals, i.e., those with the high IQ's, are taking their rightful (?) positions of power and influence.

The top of the pile of the very intelligent is held by Ashkenazi Jews, whose 117 IQ makes them indisputably qualified to rule, but what they do with this gift of intelligence is frightening, at least to me.

They are the "neocons" here, the bankers in Brazil, and general troublemakers wherever they settle, as we see in Russia, for example:

"In post-Communist Russia, six out of the seven wealthiest and most powerful oligarchs, wielding mind-boggling political and economic leverage, are Jewish. Owing to the virulent history of Russian anti-Semitism, this racial profile of the nouveau riche has not gone unnoticed. How, it is being asked on the streets, did members of a minuscule "outsider" ethnic minority come to wield unimaginable might since 1991? Chua notes that political anti-Semitism is on the rise, as a majority of ordinary Russians believe "they have been impoverished at the expense of rich Jews." References to "Zioncrats" and "bloodsucking Jews" who hijacked privatization and stole the wealth of the Russian people are commonplace. "

The answer to "how?", posed above, is by intelligence, but I don't see this as being addressed. It is actually quite natural IMO, but dangerous to mankind in general.

So much for my rant, see for yourselves.

Comments welcomed.

Nice find, Ed.

From the linked article:

**The most horrific outcome of free market democracy in the face of a market-dominant minority is government-sponsored attempts to "cleanse" the outsiders. **

Don't this just make us all wonder: Why is it "most horrific" for the majority to cleanse market-dominant minorities but not "horrific" at all for a minority to terrorize a majority by such domination?

This is not a double standard. This is excusing tyranny as simple economics and then characterizing natural rebellion as somehow the worst crime in the world. Outsiders aren't supposed to dominate a market; the market was created by the majority to serve them.

Sometimes the whole world looks upside down. The writer don't even know what an economy is for. (Hint: Economies weren't created for "outsider minorities" to "dominate".)

If the holocaust (capitalizing it makes it too important) was right, then perhaps Hitler was right. Maybe he had the right remedy--but he couldn't carry it through.

This one's easy. For the same reason we're at war to protect a market-dominant minority's domination of the greater Middle East's majorities... even as that minority ruthlessly persecutes & exterminates the sub-minority within their own bailiwick.

And you gotta love that 'market-dominant' jazz. Believe me, if they werent talkin' bout JEWS Amy Chua would resort to the much more commonly-used 'tyrant' and 'despot', perhaps even with the occasional modifier 'wicked'.

But then, even a tenured lotus blossom has got to kiss Hyman's ring if she wants to keep her catbird seat in Academia, eh?
