       our enemies again admit we we were correct all along:
  HTML https://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2023/12/04/the-goldene-medine-anglo-jewish-responses-to-the-white-australia-policy/
       [quote]I have never encountered any critical responses by
       contemporary Anglo-Jewry to the foundation of the White
       Australia Policy. Have Jewish historians simply forgotten to
       investigate such an important topic? Can it be that the
       interests of Anglo-Jewry and the White majority were so well
       aligned that there was no need to undermine the majority in the
       first place?
       ...
       Australian history seems to provide the perfect example of Jews
       peacefully reconciling themselves to an explicit White racial
       and cultural status quo
       ...
       Jews were present in the Australian colonies from their very
       foundation and there was never any question that the rights
       owned by gentiles applied equally to Jews, all being British
       subjects one and the same.
       ...
       The security of the Anglo-Jewish community was owed to its
       status as a well-assimilated community that identified itself
       exclusively as ‘Englishmen of the Mosaic persuasion’ or
       ‘Australians of the Jewish Faith.’  Religious life and
       observance were uniformly based around the teachings of British
       Chief Rabbi Nathan Adler, who promoted the Anglicising of
       Judaism in order to adapt it to English cultural life and
       strengthen the position of Jews in a modern, emancipated world.
       ...
       Jewish loyalty to Australia as a British society and to the
       British Empire was utterly unquestioned, and Australia’s
       protestant-liberal elite operated free of tensions with the
       Anglo-Jewish community, sharing identical commitments to
       political liberalism and a hostility to Catholicism.
       ...
       With the arrival of racialism in the latter half of the
       nineteenth century and the political desire to form a racially
       homogenous Australia, these realities resulted in the small,
       highly assimilated and accepted Anglo-Jewish community being
       identified as White.
       ...
       As far as the historical record is concerned, there is no
       evidence of a single prominent member of the organised Jewish
       community opposing the foundation of the White Australia Policy
       during the formative period of 1901 to 1906.
       ...
       no opposition of any sort from Anglo-Jewry was evident towards
       the Immigration Restriction Act (1901), the Naturalization Act
       (1905) or the deportation of Chinese and Pacific Islanders that
       formed the basis of the White Australia Policy.
       ...
       This can be strongly substantiated by the fact that modern
       Jewish academics and historians seemingly fail to point to any
       examples of Jewish resistance to the policy. Jewish history
       books and journal articles are lacking in all references to any
       pressure groups, deputations or lobbying during this period. An
       embarrassing reality for those so keen to present themselves as
       the ‘Light unto Nations’, one would readily assume that if such
       a figure or group existed, even if only minor, he or she would
       be dredged up from the historical record and loudly paraded as a
       visionary and exemplary Jewish figure, worthy of remembrance in
       the fight against racism and insular politics.
       In fact, the White Australia Policy found one of its foremost
       defenders in arguably the most prominent and successful Jew of
       the Federation era, Isaac Isaacs. Whilst a Parliamentarian for
       the Protectionist Party, Issacs was a political ally of Prime
       Minister Edmund Barton and Attorney General Alfred Deakin of the
       first Government of Australia, which introduced the White
       Australia Policy. Isaacs would have been in a prime position to
       attempt to influence the Protectionist Party and Deakin to
       temper their policy and follow the line of the British
       government which feared repercussions of the strict racial
       barrier on their new alliance with Japan. Instead, Isaacs gave
       full support to the legislation and made one of the staunchest
       defences of the Australian racial mission in a speech to
       parliament:
       I recognise to the fullest that here in Australia we have a
       white man’s war. It is a struggle for life; it is a struggle for
       that higher and fuller life that all progressive nations must
       feel and share in. It is that struggle for victory over adverse
       circumstances which is the pride and glory of all advancing
       civilizations. It is a white man’s war that we must face, and I
       would not suffer any black or tinted man to come in and block
       the path to progress. I would resist to the utmost, if it were
       necessary, any murky stream from disturbing the current of
       Australian life.[3][/quote]
       Note Isaacs' portrayal of "whiteness" as part of progressivism.
       I (unlike False Leftists) academically agree with this, which is
       why I am against progressivism:

       Continuing:
       [quote]Two other Jewish members of the federal parliament were
       present in the period 1901–1906, Elias Solomon and Vaiben L.
       Solomon, both members of the Free Trade Party from South
       Australia. Neither is recorded as opposing the relevant
       legislation and Vaiben L. Solomon campaigned for the restriction
       of Chinese immigration into South Australia during the 1890s.
       ...
       Aaron Blashki, a prominent merchant and founder of the Sydney
       Jewish Aid Society, rounded out the discussion by stating he
       often felt ashamed of the policy when travelling overseas;
       however an editorial on the speech published in the Jewish
       Herald two weeks later remarked on the subsequent discussions by
       attendees, indicating a quorum of support for the White
       Australia Policy:
       …the course of the debate in the Sydney society revealed, we
       are told a preponderance of opinion in favour of the political
       measures comprehended under the term “A White Australia.”… All
       the speakers readily admitted the ethical superiority of the
       Jewish doctrines governing the relations of man with man, but
       the majority of them seem to have considered that the particular
       circumstances of the Commonwealth rendered any attempt to
       practically, apply those doctrines injudicious.[5][/quote]
       Which is not to say that Australian Jews were anti-immigration
       in general:
       [quote]The prospect of large-scale Russian Jewish migration to
       Australia during the 1890s had aroused angst amongst mainstream
       Australia still reeling from an economic depression and such
       activists were keen to present the Russian Jews as White and an
       economic asset for Australia. Israel Zangwill, the co-founder of
       ITO, famous in America for his play The Melting Pot, framed the
       issue in a letter from 1907 in terms of the precariousness of
       Australia’s racial status in Asia:
       I am quite aware that Australia will fight hard against giving
       away any territory or fostering our aims in any way, but
       Australia has to choose between a black population and a Jewish
       white one. Australia is waking up to her folly, and her possible
       future collapse. The Jews could possibly safeguard her future as
       white territory.[7]
       Australia historically feared that the underdevelopment of its
       northern regions would otherwise invite foreign settlement or
       invasion. The prospect of a Jewish settlement in the region,
       later to crystallise in the failed Kimberly Scheme, was touted
       as a potential solution for defending these vast unoccupied
       territories and settling it with White migrants.
       ...
       intermarriage between Jews and Gentiles during this period was
       common enough to be utterly unremarkable, signalling a lack of
       perceived racial difference between the two communities and a
       genuine acceptance by one another as members of the same stock.
       At its peak in 1921, 29 percent of Jewish husbands in Australia
       had a non-Jewish wife and 16 percent of Jewish wives had a
       non-Jewish husband.[10] Rates of intermarriage were even higher
       in rural communities with a skewed Jewish male-to-female ratio.

       Recorded Australia's Foreign and Domestic Policy, Defending the
       Racial Purity of the White European Race
       [quote]...The ideal of loyalty to the white races should be
       deeply implanted in the hearts of all our young. The case
       against the influx from Asia might be compiled under various
       headings. There was the race instinct. There were the social
       difficulties which followed intimacy of the races. There was the
       experience of every country that had tried racial experiments
       the half-castes, half-breeds, Eurasians, and mulattos, to cry
       out against such tragedies. There was the fact that even where
       the lower race was bettered the higher race was more or less
       injured, and such a sacrifice could not be voluntarily
       undertaken."[/quote]

       [quote]Jefferson said-"There are but two solutions of a. race,
       problem-amalgamation and separation.**, After a century
       Governments, of English-speaking peoples are acting upon
       Jefferson's dictum, and recognising that his prevision was
       accurate and complete. The first solvent-amalgamation- is
       rejected by Anglo-Saxon and Teuton, but it has settled the race
       Problems in certain colonies of -the ' South European Powers,
       such as France, Spain, and Portugal The Anglo-Saxon Government '
       of the United States,, after three centuries, finds its negro
       problem more difficult than before; but the Latin governments of
       Central and South America and elsewhere have attained racial
       Nirvana through interbreeding. It is clear that the "North
       European people, such as English and German, are not to apply
       amalgamation as a solvent in removing race friction, and it is
       just as clear that the South Europeans will do so.
       ...
       In the United States disapproval of miscegenation cannot be made
       national without amending the Federal Constitution,, for
       marriage is a state institution, not national, and laws
       affecting it are passed by the State Legislatures, and many of
       the States are not confronted with the negro problem. The
       colored man may no longer enter South Africa, New Zealand,
       Australia, Canada, and. the United States, but it is unless for
       at least two of these political groups ¡to forbid the incoming
       of colored races if they are to permit intermarriage with those
       already there. The future American wïfl ' be an octoroon, and
       the future South African three-fourths Kaffir. The American will
       be reduced below the level of the white race, and the South
       African wili revert to barbarism. Preservation of race integrity
       is imperative, and which can only be done through legal
       enactment. From generation to generation the white race throws
       off defectives who in the struggle for existence' are not
       affected by public disapproval of miscegenation, and who from
       need or moral degeneracy gravitate to the lower race. This
       element should not be allowed to endanger the white race hy
       interbreeding with the colored, for their offspring in all
       countries not protected by prohibitive legislator! tend to breed
       into the white race. Much of this interbreeding is illegitimate,
       but in those countries permitting miscegenat on, the tendency is
       for quadroon and octoroon to find entrance to white society. The
       Southern people in the United States stand alone as having
       preserved race integrity when immediately confronted by a
       colored population, but ".they owe salvation to statute, not to
       public'disapproval.
       Australia's Position.
       In taking the next step there are already implications of its
       universality among the North European stock. The Confederate
       States in the American Union have long had such a law; the
       German colonies expressly deny intermarriage. The Transvaal and
       the Free State have made admixture illegal, but there under
       present conditions the race line is not accurately adhered to.
       The mass of Australians do not realise such need, for they are
       not face to face with the colored race, but in the northern
       portion interbreeding is common and intermarriage not unknown.
       For another century, at least, the white population of Australia
       will be massed along the coast, and in the southern portion, and
       will not determine from experience the need of prohibitive
       legislation in preventing admixture. But during this period the
       gradual development of the north will plioe a sufficient white
       population there to absorb the colored, and then it will be too
       late to interfere. Colored races have failed to redeem the
       tropics, and this is left for the while man. It was commonly
       said by advocates of negro slavery that the south and south-west
       of the United States were impossible for white labor, but after
       a half-century more than half the cotton is grown by white
       labor, and the inhabitants of this section are possessed of the
       best physique found in the United States. It is now the opinion
       of the best authorities that Central Africa wou'd be an ideal
       home for the white man. The actual condition the south of the
       United States, and the opinion of authorities as to Central
       Africa may give hope to those who wish to see a great white
       population in northern Australia. The opponents of race
       admixture may find sufficient motive in the necessities of
       civilisation and progress, because blood admixture will
       condition progress and lower ideals to the level of the hybrid
       but there is another inciting motive, and it is not wholly
       sentimental. The white man today should bequeath to his
       posterity unshorn ot its potentialities the glorious heritage of
       race integrity.[/quote]

       [quote]The Hannibal Directive (Hebrew:
       נוהל
       חניבעל, romanized: Nóhal
       Khanibaál), also translated as Hannibal Procedure or Hannibal
       Protocol, is the name of a controversial procedure used by the
       Israel Defense Forces (IDF) to prevent the capture of Israeli
       soldiers by enemy forces. Author Eyal Weizman has described a
       2014 Israeli policy stating that "the kidnapping must be stopped
       by all means, even at the price of striking and harming our own
       forces."[2] It was introduced in 1986, after a number of
       abductions of IDF soldiers in Lebanon and subsequent
       controversial prisoner exchanges. The full text of the directive
       was never published, and until 2003, Israeli military censorship
       forbade any discussion of the subject in the press. The
       directive has been changed several times,[2] and in 2016 Gadi
       Eisenkot ordered the formal revocation of the standing directive
       and the reformulation of the protocol.[3][4]
       Two versions of the Hannibal Directive may have existed
       simultaneously at times: a written version, accessible only to
       the upper echelon of the IDF, and an "oral law" version for
       division commanders and lower levels. In the latter version, "by
       all means" was often interpreted literally, as in "an IDF
       soldier was 'better dead than abducted'". In 2011, IDF Chief of
       Staff Benny Gantz stated the directive does not permit killing
       IDF soldiers to prevent abduction.[5]
       In the case of the abduction of Gilad Shalit, invocation of the
       Hannibal Directive occurred too late to have any influence on
       the course of events.
       Israeli newspapers including Haaretz, ABC News and the UN's
       Commission of Inquiry have reported that during the October 7
       attacks the IDF ordered the Hannibal Directive to be used. The
       IDF was ordered to prevent "at all costs" the abduction of
       Israeli civilians or soldiers, possibly leading to the death of
       a large number of Israeli hostages.[6][7][8][9][/quote]

       [quote]Jews and colonialism in australia
       The history of Jews in Australia is deeply intertwined with the
       colonial history of the country.  The first Jews to arrive in
       Australia were convicts on the First Fleet in 1788, and they
       brought with them a rich cultural heritage. Over the years,
       Jewish communities have grown, with significant contributions to
       the Australian society and economy. The Jewish community has
       also played a crucial role in the diaspora, providing refuge and
       support to Jewish refugees from Europe, particularly after World
       War II. Today, Australia is home to a vibrant Jewish community,
       with numerous synagogues, community centers, and cultural
       institutions that continue to celebrate Jewish traditions and
       heritage.[/quote]
