Interesting, Even Revealing History & Sociology Despite Jewwy Lies, Lying
Book Review Of Katz's "Jews and Freemasons in Europe, 1723-1939"
(Apollonian, 18 Nov 13)
Just finished Jacob Katz's "Jews and Freemasons in Europe 1723-1939," Harvard U. Press, Cambridge, Ma., 1970, 229 pgs text, xi, w. notes and index 292 pgs. It's the typical heavy Jew propaganda and lies, but still interesting. So what's Katz's thesis?--well, he wants to go on a bit about how the Jews and Freemasons ought to be understood, he pointing out that so often conservatives couple the two together, Jews and Freemasons. Katz now wants to show how some of the masons and organizations actually shunned Jews and excluded them, esp. in Germany, and before the French Revolution, Jews then only gradually integrated within some Freemason networks, but then suffering fm renewed anti-semitism of the late 19th cent., esp. in Germany.
Katz doesn't bother saying anything about the masons but for the usual prop. by which they supposedly strove to rationalism, emphasizing the universalist "humanitarianism" and "moral law ideals" balderdash, ignoring what they really are, a subversive and criminal secret society even if many of the novice members were really dupes of the outward propaganda, which actually much emphasized Christianity, the masons of higher degrees adopting cabalistic notions fm the Jews. The truth is the free-masons were archetypal "liberals" and "progressives" of the times (18th and 19th cent.s)--vehicle of the satanism which so much pervades and dominates in this corrupted, absolutely Jew-centric age.
But then HOW do the free-masons begin for basic pretext in early 18th cent.?--simple: they're an arm of the banking criminals, including especially Jews, who foist legalized COUNTERFEITING in the form of paper and fiat money issuing fm central -type banks which then finance the various rulers of the age--who most often desperately needed money and financing for their wars and regimes--esp. for war and defense thereto.
Katz doesn't tell us this about banking and the rulers using Jews for financial purposes and fraud which had actually been going on, increasingly, since the Reformation; he rather merely goes on in extremely tedious and dreary general terms, writing often circuitously and in the passive voice, about how Jews so innocently, but naturally, sought to enter a hostile gentile society, and, tragically (according to Katz), coming up against the predictable prejudice against Jews. The masons then were outstanding means of integrating Jews along w. their dupes among and within gentile population--at least, and especially for the banking/finance component.
Thus the "free" masons grew out of the masons who were stone-builders, or builders in stone. Fm the middle-ages, these stone-builders were highly distinct for their abilities as architects and scientists who had to know certain techniques and even mathematics for their specialized craft in erecting the most prestigious and important buildings and structures, including churches, cathedrals, and fortifications, but also bridges and other things.
Eventually this distinct society of masons expanded beyond strict building in stone and evolved to calling themselves, many of them, "free-masons," emphasizing their style of "free," "progressive," and "liberal" -type thought. Free-masons were "enlightened" and "illuminated." And as the rulers of Europe were ever looking for ways of increasing their ability to tax and spend they made use of the criminal bankers, including especially Jews, always most organized and "connected" among the criminal elements, who worked to legitimize themselves by means of this society of "free-thinking" and "liberalism." After all, why couldn't society in general work just as well if not better by means of paper money?
Thus the free-masons were so handy and useful for the rulers, the aristocracy and nobility so closely related, and thus the Jew financiers, frauds, and criminals attached therewith. Thus the general criminal society, within the larger civil society, became organized and legitimized by means of these free-masons--at least as far as banking and financing were concerned. And indeed we see freemasons becoming public beginning in early 18th cent. England, the first official freemason "constitution" issued in 1723. Organized, public freemasonry soon after appeared in Continental Europe--again, remember, because of the crucial necessity of "creative" (criminal) ways of financing.
So Katz follows the development, expansion, and spread of masonry along w. the integration of Jews. At first the lodges required members be Christians. Soon however, the Christian lodges began to admit Jews, especially in England and Holland, these considered most "liberal," as by Katz and the Jews, the Germans being most "conservative" as they were most reluctant and late in admitting of Jews.
The French during and after the Revolution thereupon admitted Jews w. hardly any qualifications and briefly imposed this "liberalism" upon the conquered Germans, but after the defeat of Napoleon, the Germans reverted to exclusion of Jews, which however steadily liberalized by the 1860s when some German lodges began to admit Jews. But finally, in the late 70s, Germans again reverted to evermore strict anti-semitism, Jews relegated to their own lodges, as in Frankfurt am Main.
Katz closes his study in the post-WWI era just prior to WWII when the masons had become notorious for their criminal connections, including especially w. Jews, and this in relation w. the sensational spread of the notorious "Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion" which described and analyzed the evermore obvious Jew take-over of Western society as we see in this day.
As I note above, Katz doesn't at all mention the banking and finance aspects w. their fatal strangle-hold upon European culture; thus his sociologic account is so tedious and barren for any drama or proper historical back-ground, but it is interesting nonetheless for the historian and sociologist for the religious angle. Katz's work is NOT "must-read" material by any means, due especially to the putrid, dreary writing-style, but it's still informative and useful for the interested scholar and historian who understands and appreciates the banking/finance angle which is necessary part of the cultural/historical analysis.
