Ahh yes, nice to see all the Jew-hating PaulBots migrating in to comment on this...that really dings the ol' credibility meter for AJ's site, eh?
Maybe I am loosing it, but AJ talks less about his conspiracy theories and more about what is actually happening than he used to. Celente is a bit of a Paul-bot himself, but he isn't stupid. I still think they have the causation wrong- the corporations are not controlling the politicians - because has Celente himself admitted, the pols are psychotic, narcissistic, anti-human nutcases. Douglas Adams had it right : No one who wants power should under any circumstances be allowed to have it. You have to be nuts in the first place to want it.
The corporations get into bed with these assholes because they have to just to continue doing business, and like any abused spouse, they find ways of coping - buying protection, etc, up to and including hitting back and becoming the same as the abuser. However, the money always flows to the politician. Its is the pol hat is in charge, and the one that granst any favors that the Corporations ask for. You can't buy a pol, but they can be rented. Fundamentally the anti-corporation types just don't get that its the govt that creates, enables and perpetuates this situation and the cause of fascism, not the other way around. The corporations are allowed to rape and steal only so long as they support the goals of the politicians. If Corzine didn't support those goals you can bet the Pols would have used him as an "example" - a case they could point to of them sticking it to those fat cats as good theater for the mass of sheep. Hence, it is the pols forcing the corporations into bed, not the other way around, and the pol setting the agenda. That some people get rich is hardly the goal or even of any importance to the pols, whose quest is for power. The wealthy they generate are under their control- the economic power of a corporation is at their beck and call, and if it isn't, the CEO is taken out and a new one put in.
As far as Jew Hating, its because a lot of these people ARE Jews- and, as a group, they are taught disdain for anyone who isn't Jew from birth. Sorry, I went to School in New York, dated a (very evil) Jewish girl, and got to know exactly how most (liberal) East Coast Jews felt about and related to gentiles. Its more of an East Coast phenomenon, just as the stereotype associated with the word "Nigger" is much more a Southern phenomenon - when you start out with the belief you are God's Chosen and superior, and are ready to make that belief known to others in a hundred different ways, you are already halfway down the road. If you wonder how Jews bring themselves to vote for Dems - that is exactly how. Stereotypes are generalizations, and I trust that most of us here understand that I am not making the leap to all jews or all blacks - merely talking about a statistical truth -nor does that truth even imply a majority - a small number of bad apples, can give a bad name to the whole barrel. And those apples left to rot, will begin to rot the ones next to them. And folks, in New York at least, a lot of the Jews I met were jerks. They made it always clear that you were not one of them. I can't say their behavior was because they were Jewish, but I can't deny there was a correlation.
So while I don't personally equate Jew with Banker or Pol or evil, I do understand why someone else might be tempted to. Hitler of course used that for his own purposes, but he wouldn't have been able to, if there wasn't an underlying dislike that surpassed simple greed and envy (though those were also components) . When you see the Jew loan out to another Jew at 3% and he charges you 10% because you are a gentile ( there is an unspoken trust between Jews and other Jews that causes this...) you might take it as an insult. Its an easy target- an easy way to identify "the other" - a way that the Jews are already employing amoungst themselves, often as a form of shunning, and its all so easy to get others to respond in kind.
