![]() 5 Reasons the National Camp Should Reject Conspiracy Theories These are hard times, hard times for those who believe and fight for a future for Israel. Hard times bring doubt and despair, they bring reliance on superstitions like Facilitated Communication and they bring reliance on another kind of superstition, conspiracy theories. It isn't that there aren't plenty of people conspiring against Israel, from without and within, but those conspiracies are fairly open. They can be read on the front pages of the New York Times.The mental poison seeps in when we become obsessed with the secret organizations controlling it all. And when we do that, we become trapped without even knowing it, in a cycle of helplessness. The Republicans in the US took back power when they stopped obsessing with black helicopters and Clinton's body trail and focused on winning elections. We aren't losing because of the Vatican or the CFR or the Trilateral Commission, we're losing because we lack leadership, strategy and a message. We lack faith in both Hashem and man and so we compulsively spend our time going down wrong paths such as this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1. Conspiracy Theories are for History's Losers - Go look at who the main market for conspiracy theories are and you'll see cultures and nations that are history's losers. The Arab world is filled with conspiracy theories explaining why everything that has gone wrong for them was the responsibility of the Freemasons and the Jews. Russia is filled with those same conspiracy theories. Go look at Neo-Nazis or the far right or the far left and you'll find the same theme, losers who want someone else to blame for their failures. Those who trade in conspiracy theories in the national religious camp are leading us down the same exact path, the path of failure and defeat. But at least we'll be able to blame CFR, the Trilateral Commission and the Illuminati for it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2. Conspiracy Theories Teach You to do Nothing - Why are conspiracy theories the hallmark of losers? Because they teach inaction. Go read Jabotinsky and then go read a conspiracy theory book and see the difference. Genuine activists tell you to take action so you can change things, conspiracy theorists tell you that there's a vast conspiracy that poisons everything so you can't accomplish anything-- unless you buy their book. Conspiracy theories are mental chewing gum, you chew them over and over again, your jaw works but no nutrition is actually reaching your body. Conspiracy theories fool you into thinking that you're doing something useful but all you're doing is rehashing and debating the conspiracy theories while lapsing into inaction, because conspiracy theories themselves teach you that the conspiracy is too powerful to do fight directly. The more conspiracy theories are reproduced, the more minds they poison by infecting them with fear and doubt that anything at all can be done. The infected recite new elaborations of the conspiracy theories to each other while Israel falls apart. Go read a conspiracy theory book again and then read Jabotinsky and toss the conspiracy book in the fire where it belongs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3. Conspiracism is a Cult - The conspiracist sets himself up as a guru dispensing "secret knowledge" of the conspiracy. Conspiracism is the Christian Gnostic heresy of an evil world controlled by evil powers which can only be resisted through gnosis or secret knowledge. This is the same idea behind virtually all conspiracy theories and the Gnostic roots of conspiracism is why so many conspiracies are obsessed with the Vatican, which stamped out the Gnostics. Look around at the beliefs of many leading conspiracists and you find Gnostic religious beliefs. Faith in conspiracy theories is not just a political idea, it is a religious idea and inappropriate for Jews. Like all cult leaders, conspiracists create movements based around selling their products, cultivate groupies and convince those who follow them that only they know the truth. Read the following and think about how it matches up with what you've seen-- "a gnostic attitude is apparent in the more eccentric political theorists. Even while opposing what they see as a secretive elite attempting to dominate humanity, they believe that this can only be done by understanding the conspiracy in the way that they understand it. As with the esoteric sects, salvation comes not by faith but by knowledge, and membership in a select group which is deemed superior to the mass of deluded and enslaved humanity." --now think about the cultlike attitudes you've seen among these movements and realize that's because they really are cults. And those who promote conspiracy theories in the national religious camp are promoting a cult that is destroying minds and souls. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 4. Conspiracy Theories are Anti-Semitic - The same conspiracy theories being backwashed through the national religious camp now originated as Catholic heresies which went underground and then got adopted by 19th century anti-semitic movements and they're foul to the core. Scratch the surface of them today and you quickly find rantings about the Rothschilds, Zionists and Kabbalah and the Talmud. The best demonstration of that is the national camp's leading conspiracy theorist Barry Chamish who propounds that Jews were behind the Holocaust and 9/11, who has friendly ties with Neo-Nazis, blames Israel for Arab terrorist attacks and claims that Muslim terrorists might turn out to be our friends. The fact that such a man is welcomed and listened to, even after he called for those expelled from Gush Katif not to be given a cent, even while he speaks at Messianic "synagogues" and anti-semitic events, is alone a symptom of the rot in the national religious camp. The fruit of a poisoned tree is still poison. Conspiracy theories are inherently hateful toward Jews and Judaism and even when that is disguised, the poison still rises to the surface. Conspiracism is a cult that opposes and replaces Judaism with its own beliefs and teaches hatred toward Judaism and Jews. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5. Conspiracy Theories Displace G-d - The Gnostic roots of conspiracy theories emerge from a worldview that believes that the G-d of the Torah is the Demiurge, an evil being who teaches lies that can only be undone by "secret knowledge". Jews who embrace conspiracy theories are rejecting Emunah in Hashem, Faith in G-d and placing their belief instead in the "secret knowledge" propounded by the conspiracy cults. Where those who have faith in G-d are confident in His salvation, believers in conspiracy theories are constantly fearful and full of doubt for they have been taught that evil rules the world and they have imbibed a worldview shaped by men who believe that G-d himself is evil. Where those who have faith in G-d confidently race forward to resist the enemy, those who place their faith in conspiracy theories live in a state of muddled doubt and inaction. Where those who have faith in G-d love their brothers, those who have faith in conspiracy theories are filled with paranoia and hatred, the poisoned stream fed to them that teaches them to distrust everyone around them. Where those who have faith in G-d work to build a better nation, those who have faith in conspiracy theories instead scream that we're all doomed. Faith in G-d leaves no room for the Gnostic worldview of conspiracy theories, for its obsessions with the evils of Talmudism and Kabbalahism and for its hatred for Jews and G-d and for the apathy, defeatism and paranoia that it teaches. Conspiracy theories are poison. They poison the mind to weaken faith in G-d and man. Like all cults they teach a phony elitism and contempt for everyone else, even as the mind of the conspiracy theorist becomes enslaved by their phantasms and imagined terrors. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ To save Israel, cast out the conspiracy theories and embrace faith in Hashem with realistic plans of action. Go back to the words of the sages and go back and read the words of those leaders like Jabotinsky and Rav Kook who struggled to build Israel. They alone should be your guides, not the paranoid ravings of men who care most of all about selling you their books and DVD's while teaching you hopelessness and despair. Because there is indeed a conspiracy but it is no secret. It's called the Open Conspiracy and while conspiracy theorists chase shadows and legends, it does its work out in the open. H.G. Wells originated the idea of the Open Conspiracy and if you want to find out what it's doing, go read the New York Times or open the site of any major liberal think tank or foundation and you'll see the Open Conspiracy at work. The Open Conspiracy has never been a secret, it's simply a belief in liberalizing society, defanging religion and morals, ending war, implementing world government and putting us on the road we've been on for some time. There is no vast coordinating organization controlling the Open Conspiracy, it doesn't need one. The Open Conspiracy is completely decentralized, it's a series of political and social beliefs held by millions of people and promoted by the media, academic and political and business elites. H.G. Wells didn't invent it, it was around before him and like the most devastating social movements, it doesn't need anyone to sit in a room and give orders, it advances because millions of people have believed in it and continue to believe in it. The Open Conspiracy is all the more devastating because it is open. It has devastated Europe, America and Israel. We can call it liberalism or socialism or the nanny state and it is all of these things and more. The people who want you to focus on the Bilderbergers, the CFR, the Vatican and the Trilateral Commission are ignoring the far more devastating reality of the Open Conspiracy. Our enemy is not a handful of men hunched over a table in a room in Zurich somewhere, it is an ideology, it is a way of thinking, it is a belief system. And it's the belief system that we have to fight in a war of ideas and will. Conspiracy theories undermine our will to fight. Conspiracy theories are a way to crawl into a corner, hide in caves and avoid the clash of civilizations and beliefs for control of our countries and the future.
