This is the second part of the long interview of documentary film maker Pierre Rehov out of a total of 4 episodes. Thanks to Helene Keller Lindt for the English translation.
Geller Report: Pierre Rehov, how do you explain the radical evolution of the black cause from a wise man who wanted peace and condemned all forms of racism, including anti-Semitism, such as Martin Luther King, to that of the most radical heirs of Malcolm X and the Nation of Islam, known for their uninhibited Judeophobia?
PR- The assassination of Martin Luther King destabilized the peaceful civil rights movement and paved the way for dissident advocating armed insurrection. Thus, personalities such as Louis Farrhakan, Angela Davis, Malcolm X, Stokely Carmichael and Jesse Jackson have come to the forefront. Not being heirs to Gandhi’s pacifist philosophy, as Pastor King may have been, they advocated violence as a response to what they considered as state violence. But there is another factor that is not negligible, and that is the influence of Islam on black communities. In its expansionist, conquering and dominating will, political Islam (which I distinguish from religious and relatively peaceful Islam) has been able to adopt the methods that proved successful in the advent of the various fascisms i the 20th century. Violence, propaganda and social aid. Quite simply the use of the stick and the carrot to spread its ideology. But there is nothing really new when we know that the first two Jihads conquered the Middle East, part of Asia and Andalusia using similar methods. Choosing between death, torture, slavery or the chance to prosper, you would think that the peoples colonized by Islam have always chosen what was favorable to them. In the same way, Islam has been able to spread in black American communities and claim to be an alternative to the system, by spreading social aid in the most disadvantaged sectors, and by establishing sectors of local domination, especially in prisons. When one community fails, the first reflex is to blame the other for its own misfortunes, rather than taking even a share of the blame. The leader of The Nation of Islam, Louis Farrhakan, is fundamentally anti-Semitic like most radical Muslims, and has expressed this on many occasions. In 1972, he claimed that “the Jews control the media”. In 1984 he said that “Hitler was a very great man”. In 1995 he said in a speech that “you (Jews) are the synagogue of Satan, and you have wrapped your tentacles around the American government, you are deceiving and sending this nation to hell”. He was still an anti-Semite and homophobic at the same time when he barked in 2007 that it was “the wicked Jews who promote lesbianism and homosexuality. And on July 4, he expressed the same hatred when he said that he had “exposed this satanic Jew” and that he was here to “tell them that their time was up, that their world was over”. In the meantime, he had also taken the liberty of calling Jews “termites”.
But his assertive anti-Semitism is also a way of rallying the troops around a common enemy whose successes have been pinned, distorted, and negatively inscribed in the collective unconscious. The Jews are thus, once again, the scapegoats of an organization that has understood that hatred is more unifying than love and the promise of prosperity. This, moreover, leads to this shameful wave of hashtags denouncing hypothetical Jewish privileges. The Jews would be “privileged whites responsible for all the misfortunes of the world” according to the Hip Hop artist “Professor Grif” interviewed by Nick Cannon who, himself, affirmed that the true Hebrews were Blacks, while the emblematic figure of rap, Ice Cube, was photographed in front of a fresco exhibiting a quantity of anti-Semitic “memes”.
Story continues below advertisementWhat is astonishing is that a community that has benefited from decades of positive segregation (quotas of Blacks imposed in universities and the arts) has chosen as its target another community that has never benefited from it. And which has helped it a lot in the past.
Can you give us some examples?
There are so many of them that I find it hard to choose. But let’s start with the “Letter on the Abolition of the Slave Trade” published in the 19th century by Granville Sharp and William Wilberforce on the basis of Jewish anti-slavery traditions dating back to Moses and the Hebrew people’s escape from Egypt. Rabbi M. Mielziner’s anti-slavery work, translated from German, was a resounding success in the USA when it was published in 1859. Immigrant Jews from Poland, Bohemia, and Vienna, including Theodore Viener, Jacob Benjamin, and August Bondi, were among the first fighters with abolitionist John Brohn in Kansas. Nathan Meyer Rothschild is known for his role in abolitionism through his funding of part of the £20 million paid by the British government to “compensate for the loss of manpower” in the plantation industry. Without this “ransom”, the farmers refused to free their slaves, despite the new laws. The grandfather of a close friend of mine, Julius Rosenwald, president of the giant Sears from 1927 until his death in 1932, initiated and partly financed a social program that included the construction of 5,000 decent schools for African Americans throughout the southern United States. These schools, called “Rosenwald Schools” and created to address the inadequacy of the American education system for the black minority, would have provided education for a third of this population. There are hundreds of other, more recent examples, not least Bernie Sanders, who has built part of his political career on a healthy anti-Zionist stance and supports BLM in all its interventions.

Big Things About To Happen At The UN Today.
✅ Trump just said that if it proves true that Iran is paying bounties to the Taliban to kill US troops, “we would hit them so hard, your head would spin”.
✅ 4:15 pm presser with Pompeo about snap-back plans for full Iranian sanctions
✅ Then Pompeo makes a formal proposal to UNSC to initiate snap-back
✅ Iran is posturing and threatening and shooting off ‘test missiles’ and, sending letters like crazy
✅ Meanwhile, Russia denies that the US has the authority to trigger the snap-back, and they don’t like it, and don’t want it, and anyway they prefer chocolate ice cream

Funny thing about Russia; they have good relations with Israel, including business relations, and they have business relations with Iran. Nobody wants an Islamic Iran with nuclear weapons, I don’t think.

Yes, well of course the Russia – Israel links are ambiguous and ambivalent. At least 1 million Israelis came from Russia after the USSR crashed in 1991. But Russian support for Syria and Iran are real problems for Israel. Almost all weapons used against Israel since 1948 have been Russian or Soviet. And Russian air defense systems in Syria are so poor against Israel, that is damaging Russian sales of their air defense systems.

Their links are rather close, they aren’t ”ambiguous and ambivalent” at all in any way whatsoever, with plenty of trade and tourism, and something of a personal friendship between President Putin and P.M. Netanyahu. And Israel doesn’t want a Sunni Jihadi regime on it’s borders, and has tacitly accepted that Syria’s government should therefore continue to exist-so Israel and Russia are in perfect if unspoken agreement on that. The weapons used against Israel are generally of Soviet make in origin, but most infantry level arms in the region are made by local armament businesses; Egyptian firms make a lot of Soviet replicas for example. It’s not a big deal as far as the Russia/Israel friendship, and many Israelis themselves are familiar personally with Russian military weapons. Russian air defenses are quite good and the Russians have a ROE policy that prevents firing on Israeli strikes in Syria; the Russians are in Syria to prevent Syria from collapsing under Sunni Islamist assault, not protect Iranian/Shia militia bases and troops from Israeli strikes. Nor is their performance damaging sales, at all, because of what I mentioned and more. Russia doesn’t ”support” Syria or Iran in the sense you think they do, again it’s a business relationship with both sides having certain interests in common; Iran helps stabilize Central Asia and Syria, Syria enables the Russian navy to have a Med. warm water port and protect Syria’s Orthodox Christians from Islamists. Neither Syria nor Iran in turn have ever helped Russia diplomatically or in any other way in Russia’s European regional problems, Russia doesn’t help them with Israel.

“they aren’t ”ambiguous and ambivalent” at all in any way whatsoever”
Well of course you and I disagree on that. Certainly I agree that they are not enemies.

I guess we can agree on that. Civilized nations don’t have too many real enemies anyway if they can try to help it; just trade, exchange goods and services, and keep away from interference in their national politics if at all possible, and a nation will be surprised how much good can happen for all nations. And keep well armed as a country yourselves.

Martin Luther King Jr. was a staunch Zionist and defender of Israel. He is wretching in his grave.

Islam is going to take over the Democratic Party (if it hasn’t already). The Liberals have nowhere to go but to an Islam that will fulfill all their sense of moral religious superiority without using that pesky Old and New Testaments, need for authoritarianism over others, vicious but protected by the cloak of religion anti-semitism, and desire for revolutionary action. And, the Muslims will give the Democratic Party the numbers of people/voters, especially if they can import more and more of them.

Oh Imam Louis Farrakhan, whoever thought you would rise meteorically after the death of Malcom X. It was a Godsend for you his passing. Now, I must warn you of a great danger. Before that one inevitable day that you ascend to the Great Wheel in the Sky that you claim you will be going too, you will have an appointment with the Big Guy upstairs. He is called the G-d of Israel or Elohim. You will be Judged and Sentenced. These aren’t my words but those of the Torah. That 1 day trial will send you to eternal HELL.
