When I first read “Portnoy’s Complaint” I was interested in Portnoy’s bemoaning the fact that he had it so tough despite all the good things he had done. I had had a lifetime of being taught that a white gentile who did anything for white gentiles was being bigoted and selfish. But every single thing Portnoy listed as what he had done had been done for JEWS.
He had helped JEWISH relief. He had fought Gerald L.K. Smith’s anti-Semitism, he had supported his synogogue and on and on and on.
Nobody sees anything odd about Emma Lazarus and Alan Derschowitz endlessly talking about two things: How white gentiles must be in the melting pot and how Jews must be preserved.
It is taken for granted by Jews that doing good means doing good for Jews.
Many of us, at some time in our lives, have sympathized with the Jewish determination to survive. We have hoped that Jews will someday unite with us in a joint effort to preserve our kind. But this ignores a basic fact about the Jewish outlook. As David Duke keeps pointing out, Jews survive on hostility. The only reason there ARE Jews outside of Israel is because for two millennia they have assumed that everyone around them is out to destroy them.
This is a self-fulfilling prophecy. If you treat everyone around you as an Evil Enemy you will soon find that everybody around you IS your enemy.
Jews are unlike other groups in that their determination to survive is a SECONDARY motivation, and it always will be.
Their FIRST motivation is the assumption that any loyalty that is not to Jews must be destroyed. This primary drive is too deeply entrenched to be cured.

This is an extremely important statement. As Jews continue to move to the right, even to the point of joining anti-immigration and white nationalist groups, many gentiles will get fatally confused about this issue. I can see it happening already.
I’m happy to see that you also posted this in SF’s Sustaining Members section. Since that’s a closed forum, however, could you summarize the responses you get here on Bob’s Blog? I’d be very interested to know what SF’s leaders have to say about this all-important issue.

And with that, you have updated Professor McDonald and refuted JohnJoyTree.

This is indeed the problem we face.
Again Bob says it perfectly.
The “first motivation” has it origins in psychological insecurity. Things like image and identity.
It is what children are on about when they chant “sticks and stones can break your bones but words can never hurt you”. Jews who are “the people of the word” have never been able to figure this out.
They are actually perpetual children who break other peoples bones because of words told to them [or about them] and thus remain children forever.
Have a look at what they do in Lebanon right now if you don’t believe me!
Criticise a Jew with words whilst at the same time protecting him or her from physical harm and you will have to endure an enraged child.
Hate and revenge is the centre of their universe.
But Bob Whitaker is the first to my knowlege to have figured all this out.

So who wants to cure that primary drive? Not me. That entails treatment. That entails money. And so on.
