You Gentiles

by Maurice Samuel

Written in 1924, this shocking classic work of Jewish Supremacism maps out what the avowedly Zionist author saw as the cause of anti-Semitism through the ages: an irreconcilable difference between Jews and all Gentiles, but Europeans in particular. This difference, Samuel argued, was inherent and biological in origin. The author argues that the real point of difference between Jew and Gentile is that the Gentiles follow what he calls the base “triviality” of Gentiles versus the God-like “seriousness” of Jews. This huge psychological difference, Samuel says, is the reason why Jews regard “playful” Gentiles as backward and silly, and why Gentiles will never be able to penetrate the Jewish perception of the world. The book goes on to discuss the main points of difference in behavior between Jews and Gentiles focusing on physical activity, religion, concepts of good and evil, loyalty, science, fair play, and discipline. Maurice spells out why Jews have different attitudes to all these moral and philosophical issues—and why these values are the opposite of those endorsed by Gentiles. Samuel then says that these inherent and unchangeable differences will always make the Jews out to be “destroyers” and the “subverters” of European culture and society. Finally, he discusses the dangers presented to Jews by intermarriage with Gentiles, and concludes by saying that there will never be peace between Jew and Gentile until the last European state has “lost its racial homogeneity.”

About the author

Maurice Samuel (February 8, 1895 – May 4, 1972) was a Romanian-born British and American novelist, translator and lecturer.

Born in Măcin, Tulcea County, Romania, to Isaac Samuel and Fanny Acker, Samuel moved to Paris with his family at the age of five and about a year later to England where he studied at the Victoria University. His parents spoke Yiddish at home and he developed strong attachments to the Jewish people and the Yiddish language at early age. This later became the motivation for many of the books he wrote as an adult. Eventually, he left England. Samuel emigrated to the United States and settled in New York in 1917.

A Jewish intellectual and writer, he is best known for his work You Gentiles, published in 1924. Most of his work concerns Judaism or the Jew's role in history and modern society, but he also wrote more conventional fiction, such as The Web of Lucifer, which takes place during the Borgias' rule of Renaissance Italy, and the fantasy science-fiction novel The Devil that Failed. Samuel also wrote the nonfiction King Mob under the pseudonym "Frank K. Notch". He and his work received acclaim within the Jewish community during his lifetime, including the 1944 Anisfield-Wolf Book Award for his non-fiction work, The World of Sholom Aleichem. He received the Itzik Manger Prize for Yiddish literature posthumously in 1972.

He died in 1972 in New York City.

It was disturbingly honest in a dishonest way, but he lets you know that. He was smuggly aware that to take notice of his writings, and speak about them as if concerned, would make you a Grand Wizard or SS Officer by the media.

I gave it five stars for the arrogance and confidence of those that feel untouchable, to draw attention to them. Good for you guys, since the 1965 Immigration act you authored, and since some nepotism in the media, finance, hollywood, mining, transportation and especially education and federal bureaucracy, specifically, intel; you have really given the place that 3rd world homeyness you can only find before a collapse of a great empire. Blaming the European descendant on your way out gives out it that Weimar Republic German desperation and rage you have grown to love so much as to repeat your behavior and political policy of subversion. As for the former Ivy League schools you run, a Vocational Degree is now far more useful. Well done, fellow white people and greatest allies. The use of the Muslim as War Dogs, brilliant. He speaks nobelly of his ability to speak truth to us, and yearns for us to do the same to him, knowing full well we cannot for fear of the retribution of the filthy, dirty leftists they so carefully reared into the retarded pets Stalin called, "useful idiots." God how they smell of BO if you are brave enough to breach a Starbucks.

History shows those stories have the best violent endings of great justice, the unrealitive kind. I hope the Jews ability to censor their intellectual betters has waned at the end, as has their control of historical narratives and what is allowed. I could have posted a honest narrative, rather than a self censored one as was the privilege of Maurice Samuel. I do not have those privileges any longer due to the Communist Left. Diogenes of Sinope would be a fine person to truly respond to this. But we know what (((they))) did by proxy to Socrates when he gave an honest response to the (((vexed poets))). Also to a carpenter of some notoriety.

I do not like hemlock in my wine, and crosses are to heavy. So I have always resolved every problem with violence. I am a brutish intellectual. Not one battle was won with peace and defense. We have forgotten this as Vikings, Spartans, Conquistadors and Legionnaires and grown weak. I will leave the Gentile (Goy) readers with a quote from another to avoid being banned, our old attitude that the Maurices feared, as they certainly neither fear nor even respect us now.

"The white man has grown weak.

Soft.

We have forgotten what it is to be strong.

You know our heros used to be gods.

Now our heroes are godless. Weak. Feebled. Diseased. Trans Otherkin Non-Hexadecimal Amorphous winners of participation in victimhood Olympics, which we do not want to play in.

We let the weak, dictate to the powerful and then we are shocked to find ourselves, adrift.

But history knows the value of sacrifice. Of culling the herd so that it stays strong.

Over and over, the lives of the many have outweighed the lives of the few, this is how we survived, and we have forgotten, and now the bill has come due.

Now the collapse is upon us, and this time the lives of the few outweigh the lives of the many, and when a nation that has never known hunger or desperation descends into madness, we will be ready.

We will, cull the herd.

We will do what needs to be done."

- Jacob Seed from his book, "You Jews"

Fantastic read to understand one aspect of the Jewish Question. According to the book, the Jews consider themselves to be superior to Gentiles.

The book was interesting because it explains that the incompatility between Jews and Gentiles is due to race, and not culture or religion. Thus it can never be solved, as the Jews will never be able to succefully integrate and become an American, or a British, or a German, etc. Their racial spirit will always come out and inevitably work towards changing the society they live in to make it Jewish.

According to the book open borders for Gentile countries are foundamental for Jews, and therefore Jews will always strive to open the borders of Gentile nations and make unlimited asylum a "human right".

Unafraid and unapologetic Maurice Samuel presents certain pervading truths (from his independent perspective) with an undeniable sarcastic undertone. Almost as if his stance was "well...let's go there and imagine the worst-case scenario"

Quick summary:

"You see we are NOT the same. In every way, we are inherently different.

There is us and then there is you.

You WILL forever hate us, it is inherent and will always manifest.

But despite your inherent disdainful hatred that you cannot rid yourself of ever, you must not behave in such a manner to us. You must help us in our plight even though you are but a gameplayer in life and not of a serious or devout nature."

Fascinating read. I loved the author's directness and ability to be bold and state his universal truths if we all decided to "go there - worst-case acceptance".

Certain elements I found quite ironic when we consider in the context of 2021 and what is happening in the world.

Perhaps the most thought-provoking book I've read this year. Samuel offers his unvarnished opinion, as an individual Jew, of the Gentiles (i.e., Europeans). Samuel's tone is often harsh and contemptuous, and the charge of "Jewish supremacism" is not unfair. At the same time, Samuel is not blind with animosity, and often expresses a wistful appreciation of the Gentile world, e.g.:

Art and science — this is your gentile world, a lovely and ingenious world. Kaleidoscopic, graceful, bewilderingly seductive, a world, at its best, of lovely apparitions, banners, struggles, triumphs, gallantries, nobles gestures and conventions.

Samuel is particularly penetrating on the Gentile and Jewish worldviews, and the perennial conflict between them. It's worth remembering that this conflict is extremely old, older than the Christian-Muslim conflict, and even than Christianity itself. The thread has continued from Antiochus III (3rd century BC), through Caligula, Vespasian and Titus, Hadrian and Simon Bar Kokhba, the Middle Ages, WWII... As Samuel suggests, there seem to be deep conflicting substrata in the Gentile and Jewish identities, always at odds. The age-old enmity between "Rome and Judea," as Nietzsche called it. It's a important topic and is rarely addressed with such frankness. As a Gentile myself (and admirer of European culture) I found his critique of Gentile patterns of life to be uncomfortably accurate and stimulating.

[Fred Kohn · Rating 4 out of 5]

This short, terrifying book is the work of an angry young man. We Jews, we, the destroyers, will remain the destroyers for ever. Nothing that you [Gentiles] will do will meet our needs and demands. We will for ever destroy because we need a world of our own, a God-world, which is not in your nature to build. Needless to say, this and other quote mines from this book appear on numerous anti-Semitic sites. Yet it would do Maurice Samuel a grave disservice not to put these statements in historical context and in the context of his main argument. These words were penned at least a decade before the term Judeo-Christian acquired its modern, positive meaning. For Samuel and the vast majority of both Jews and Gentiles, at least at the time of this writing, Christianity should not in the least be paired with Judaism. Samuel, standing outside the Christian tradition, makes a strong argument is Christian ethics have strong traces of Greco-Roman pagan morality, and that Jewish ethics and Greco-Christian ethics are and forever shall be in opposition. Is this really any different than what Christianity argued up until the 20th century: that Christian ethics would always be in opposition to both Jewish and Pagan ethics?

[Eduardo Martínez Sáez · Rating 4 out of 5]

I found this to be less controversial than its reputation. In its historical context, this book's declared purpose was to examine whether Jews constituted "just another people" within the myriad of defining national identities of Europe; or if a clear division could be established between Jewish and Gentile culture.

Surprisingly, what I found in this little book was a very insightful look at European, gentile culture as it stood in the early twentieth century. The author describes, as a foreign observer, a set of "subjective virtues" that define in his mind the lines between European and Jewish culture. He examines a chivalric and playful worldview, in which vitalism is cheered and adorned by sport-like rules; the romanticism of war within gentile culture, dueling, the arbitrary yet fierce loyalties, the gentlemen's rules in every aspect of life. He describes a joyful, turbulent world of many competing gods stretching back from classical times, grandiose, to the times of the author. In some ways, one century after these words were written, it feels like a description of a long-gone world.

To this vision he opposes Jewish culture, defined by an essential seriousness and utilitarianism. Seriousness originates from its radical conceptualization of God and morality, as a black-and-white, all encompassing reality. Utilitarianism is shown by its inability to understand the gentile fixation on setting seemingly arbitrary chivalric rules to everything, from war to business, in order to turn the world into a playground. "You gentiles fight because you like to fight. We Jews fight because we have to, and in order to win." This is understood from the perspective of cultural relativism, free from moral judgement. "Within our system we need be neither better nor worse behaved than you within yours ... it is in the nature of the systems that I base the distinction. We deny your very system, you ours".

However, the origin of this gulf rests in biological differences forged during millennia of spiritual separation. Whatever the differences in faith, these ultimately are manifestations of primal differences that the author understands as totally irreconcilable. This bring us to the last part of the book, also highly interesting, for it addresses the challenges and perspectives of assimilation and Jewish identity during the interwar period.

Overall, very much worth-reading, both for the content of the analysis and for its historical value.

The most concise and lucid exposition of the Jews' opinion of our race is Maurice Samuel's You Gentiles (New York, 1924; recently reprinted). The author, a learned and courageous Jew, undertook to explain frankly the inherent and biological differences between his race and our own, and to indicate, as courteously as possible, the reasons for the Jews' great superiority. His work merely confirms and elucidates the tenor of all Jewish writing for Jews, and is remarkable only in that it was written for goyim.

[…]

As Maurice Samuel (whom I cite in preference to other Jewish sources because he wrote in English and without circumlocution) points out, religious Jews always think of their god as a Big Jew, the praeterhuman representative of the Jewish People, while the atheists worship the collectivity without imagining a supernatural symbol of the race.

— Professor Revilo P. Oliver, America's Decline: The Education of a Conservative

To those intrepid seekers of truth who are already aware of the insuperable differences between Jew and Gentile, little within this book will be revelatory. There are, however, a few things of note I would like to draw your attention to.

The first is the author's reproach on p. 133 that, in the context of "blood libels" (i.e. recurring accusations of ritual murder over the last ten centuries):

"Kill the Jews, the Christ-killers," does indeed ring strange these days. But does "a damn good dose of lead for the Jewish Bolsheviks" sound very remote?

Meaning that the preponderant Jewish role in revolutionary Marxist movements — well known during the time of this book's publishing 100 years ago when the Bolsheviks were implementing their unprecedented reign of terror and mass murder across Russia but since suppressed by the media and public school curriculum — is supposedly a canard with no basis in fact. Yet not ten pages later (p. 141-142) he more or less openly takes pride in this:

we…have produced an overwhelming number of revolutionaries and socialists and iconoclasts of the true prophetic type (…)

We have joined your capitalistic world in deliberate emulation and rivalry: yet Jewish socialism and Jewish socialists are the banner bearers of the world's "armies of liberation." Three or four million modernized Jews, a ludicrously small number, have given to the world's iconoclastic force its chief impetus and by far its largest individual contribution. America and England put together, with their almost two hundred millions, have not played that role in world iconoclasm which a handful of Jews have played…The occasional in you [revolutionary agitation against the established order of things] is the dominant in us.

Written in 1924, in the shadow of the horrific WW I and the rising antisemitism (which as we now know culminated in the most horrific acts of industrialised murder), Samuels lays out what seemed to him tragically irreconcilable differences between Jews and the (predominantly) Christian Europeans, despite huge efforts on the part of the former to "fit in" with Christian society.

The tone is scathing, caustic, sarcastic. The chapter "We the Destroyers" ostensibly written from what he understands as the point of view of the jew-haters, who see us Jews as destroyers and userpers.

The tragic story of the struggle for Jewish survival in the midst of violence, pogroms, foreseeing even the horror of the Holocaust that was to come.

Clearly, the book is "of it's time", when Jews only started coming out of their splendid isolation and their shtetles, assimilating within modern Germany, and might seem difficult to understand or connect to in light of our contemporary multicultural societies. To understand these writings in the context of their time, one needs to be aware of how rejected and dejected Jews were, from most walks of life and institutions, marred by memories of terrible violence against their ancestors on accusations of being Christ killers and child murderers. A hopeless situation of a people dispersed from their homeland, lost amongst the Christians and heathens, desperately clinging to their ancient religion, books and language.

[Ferguson · Rating 1 out of 5]

Half of the book is him saying how gentile culture, politics, religion, habits, art, literature etc are inferior and obscene compared to the jewish equivalent.
Then, the other half of the book is him crying about gentiles that don't like jews and saying that's all anti-semitism.
Interesting parts:

1 - there's a part where he says that jews are destroyers who will never adjust to gentile society, and so, work forever to destroy it.

2 - at one part he says that jews have no own culture or art, and in general jews have no creativity

3 - there's a part where he complains about modern day worship of science, and how the need for a theory of relativity is stupid and makes no sense and it is a gentile pursuit, but he omits the fact that this theory was invented and promoted by Einstein, who was a jew.

4 - he talks a lot about jews having no place to be, no land, no own culture etc.

5 - he admits that when a jew "converts" to christianity and go trought baptism, will mostly do only to marry a gentile woman.

6 - he says that jews betray even themselves

7 - he says that concepts such as ethic, loyalty and honor are alien to jews and don't make sense

9 - he's unable to understand gentile pursuit of strenght and beauty in art and personal life

“Gentile” is a racial slur of ancient origins that Jews use towards non-Jews. The title of this book is therefore a polemic against non-Jews, written by a Romanian Jew who ended up emigrating to the United States. The title reminds me of a viral incident that took place a few years ago, when the NHL commentator Don Cherry referred to Canadian immigrants who he found to be disrespectful towards Canadian veterans as “you people.” The media deemed this to be a racist, bigoted, and derogatory remark, which subsequently led to his firing. A reader of this book may therefore be led to believe that such a usage of “you people” (“you gentiles,” in this case) is likewise a bigoted remark towards a myriad of different peoples, but they would be wrong to think that. This language is only hateful when a white male uses it to defend his nation and its people - it is totally permissible when a Jew uses it towards non-Jews, and is often just a misunderstanding that leads to anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. Understanding this, we gentile readers can see Samuel’s book as more of a guide as to how we can live in the world amongst Samuel and who he deems to be his people who are superior to us, so as not to get in their way and to make the world more operable.

Chapter 1 is titled “The Question.” Once again, posing what seems to be “The Gentile Question” should not raise alarm for any of us, as Samuel is just trying to objectively identify the difference between Jews and non-Jews throughout history to the modern age. This in no way is comparable to someone posing “The Jewish Question,” even though the two are virtually identical in nature. The latter usage is unacceptable, whereas the former is entirely justified. In any case, he uses some interesting choice of words to describe the phenomenon of the Jewish diaspora growing stronger by being scattered throughout the world in every nation, saying, “But as it is, our existence is secured at infinite expense of special effort on our part, and of peculiar discomfort to you” (12). For the rest of the chapter, he goes on about how Jews have suffered around the world no matter where they go and that this justifies his thesis. Another interesting note here is when he says, “It does no harm to know the history that is in books; but the only authentic history is around us” (14-15). What we learn about Jewish history from textbooks in the public school system is authoritative, even if it seems to contradict independent study and personal experience. Samuel points out, however, that Jews’ independent study and personal observations are allowed to supersede mainstream consensus of history.

The rest of chapter 1 is Samuel essentially saying that gentile worldviews consist of useless art and sport, whereas Jews focus on the true meaning of life, and this continues into chapter 2 which is titled “Sport.” He seems to be ignorant of many well-known Jews in the arts and media, such as Al Goldstein and Solomon Friedman. Anyway, I must empathize again with the sentiment Samuel continues with when says, “When I read ‘serious’ accounts of the history of our own times, and see in what a seeming conspiracy of stupidity our historians ignore the most potent manifestation of modern life - sport, football, baseball - and concentrate almost exclusively on such trivialities as politics, which no one takes seriously, I am filled with astonishment and despair. Such men cannot write true history” (39). I wholeheartedly agree with this, especially the modern mainstream media’s coverage of what Israel and the IDF are doing in Gaza and the foreign aid they receive from their greatest ally. We certainly need better journalists and historians, because as Samuel states, they are not always so trustworthy or serious. Speaking of sports and cultural identity, I encourage readers to watch The Guardian’s short documentary on the Beitar Jerusalem football team - they are a great part of Israeli society. Samuel says that the gentile’s infatuation with sports is detrimental to their societies (which I actually agree with to some extent), yet it seems Israel has a passion for sports too!

At the end of chapter 2, Samuel goes on a diatribe about how Jews do not want violence and war and only do so when necessary in self-defense, whereas gentiles bask in war. This makes complete sense, given Israel’s origins and their relationship with the Lebanese, Egyptians, and native Palestinians. He also says they do not glorify war heroes, even though many politicians and rabbis sang the praises of men such as Baruch Goldstein and Meir Kahane - but I must remember that as a gentile, questioning this would be anti-Semitic. He also restates that Jews are justified in their willingness to go to battle, whereas gentiles are not, saying, “We are everywhere, to a large extent, aliens. A sense of inferiority status drives us to extremes of sacrifice in justifying our claims to equality” (60). Although they are G-d’s chosen people and are superior to all others, they are simultaneously inferior when it comes to certain issues, somehow. This is the dialectic of victimhood that is important to Jewish culture; he even goes on to say that Jews are “the oppressed par excellence” (61). Us gentiles must acknowledge and respect this, even if their self-proclaimed God-given birthright status as superior to the nations may seem dangerous and racist.

Chapter 3 is titled “Gods.” Samuel says that all non-Jewish religions are idolatrous and polytheistic. He seems to be unaware that many Conservative and Reformed Jewish sects are openly henotheistic. He also never tells us why polytheism is bad outright, except that monotheism brings together some form of cultural unity. He, like many outreach Jewish movements such as Chabad, want to tell us gentiles that our religions are evil, yet we are not to learn or partake of the Jewish religion unless we become some form of Noahide slaves. They are allowed to strip nations of their national religions, but evangelizing to them is anti-Semitic. While reading this chapter, I found many of these points to be inconsistent and contradictory, but who am I to question G-d’s chosen people? Of course they are right about religion. “In the heart of any pious Jew, God is a Jew” (75).

The next chapter is titled “Utopia.” Samuel uses Plato’s Republic as the benchmark for a gentile sense of a utopia. Although I like Plato as much as the next guy, I wouldn’t say I adopt his political philosophy wholesale, but with that being said, I (and I believe most of us gentiles) would much rather prefer to live in Plato’s Republic than to live in Judaism’s eschatological world. Samuel’s idea of a utopia is a world in which all gentiles worship the Jewish god and migrate to Jerusalem every so often to worship him, similar to a pilgrimage to Mecca. While this sounds quite dystopian, I must trust the view of G-d’s chosen once again. There is some crossover with the next chapter, “Loyalty,” where Samuel links criminality to anti-Semitism. He derives from this the idea that, “There does not seem to be a single country with a history which has not been anti-Semitic at one time or another'' (95). In other words, literally every single nation is in the wrong, and the Jews are in the right. The only solution to this is for gentiles to cease existing - “Your dislike of us finds uneven and unequal expression, is lulled into rest for a time, at times is overborne by generous impulses, but it is a quality inherent in the nature of things, nor is it conceivable to me that, as long as there are Jews and gentiles, it should ever disappear” (95).

The chapter on “Discipline” is one of the more strange ones, because the reader wonders what exactly Samuel is supposed to be boasting about. He talks of how Jews are more disorganized and chaotic than gentiles, both in religious and secular events. He says things like, “You gentiles are disciplined; we Jews are not” and “Jewish meetings never begin on time, never end on time. In your clubs and societies - order and harmony; in ours, noise, disorder, and wastage. Your programs are observed with fair strictness; our programs are merely points de depart. In your homes calm and even systemization; in ours boisterous affection, formless” (108-109). I am not entirely sure how this makes for a well-established society and culture, but perhaps it is something beyond the grasp of my gentile mind. He goes on again about how Jews have been persecuted, and says that, “Yet I have no doubt that when Germany and England and America will long have lost their present identity or name or purpose, we shall still be strong in ours” (111). This may seem like a dog-whistle for wanting to eliminate gentile nations, but noticing this would be anti-Semitic. He ends up thanking the Jewish god that he did not make him like a gentile, which is a verbatim teaching from the Talmud (120).

“The Reckoning” is basically a whole chapter reiterating how Jews are the most oppressed people of all time, and that it is everyone else’s fault. He makes some interesting remarks, such as, “On our side at least the fighting has been clean; we have not misrepresented you. On your side the fighting has been dirty. From the dawn of civilization you have lied about us…” (130). For instances of “clean” Jewish fighting, I would recommend referring to Baruch Korff and Meir Kahane’s terrorist plots, the Cave of the Patriarchs Massacre, and the various massacres during the establishment of the state of Israel as a few examples. The next chapter is essentially a continuation of this one.

Samuel then goes on to label Jews as “Destroyers,” not in a derogatory way, but in a boastful manner. He says, “If anything, you must learn (and are learning) to dislike and fear the modern and ‘assimilated’ Jew more than you did the old Jew, for he is more dangerous to you. At least the old Jew kept apart from you, was easily recognizable as an individualism as the bearer of the dreaded Jewish world-idea: you were afraid of him and loathed him. But to a large extent he was insulated. But as the Jew assimilates, acquires your languages, cultivates a certain intimacy, penetrates into your life, begins to handle your instruments, you are aware that his nature, once confined safely to his own life now threatens yours” (144). He continues saying that a Jew “scatters distrust of yourselves through the most sensitive of you, he [the Jew] is working against your spirit. You gentiles do not seek or need or understand social justice as an ultimate ideal” (145). The chapter concludes with what is the most widely recognized quote from the entire book, “We Jews, we, the destroyers, will remain destroyers forever. Nothing that you do will meet our needs and demands. We will for ever destroy because we need a world of our own, a God-world, which it is not in your nature to build” (155). While all of the quotes here seem like a call to action to destroy all other ethnic groups throughout the world, such a seemingly clear interpretation of the text is nothing but a cultural difference, a misunderstanding, and at worst an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory. Samuel is trying to tell us that he and his people love gentiles.

The chapter on science doesn’t seem all that relevant to the central topic; it is more of a rant about how most of modern science is a waste of time and doesn’t actually have a positive impact on most people’s lives. The chapter on “the masses” is essentially a repeat of everything that’s already been said. The final two chapters, however, have to do with the solution to this Jew-Gentile problem. Samuel gives an ironic answer, that the only solution would be a dissolution of the Jewish people, particularly by intermarriage, which seems to run contrary to his other solution he posited in the chapter on “Loyalty.” He says however, that even with the dissolution of Jews by intermarriage, their strength will be dispersed among the gentiles and still live on in an abstract way: “It is unthinkable that so vivid an element as the Jewish people should be absorbed into your world without producing an appreciable alteration in its constitution. A world that has absorbed the Jews will to that extent be a Jewish world” (194). Essentially, he sees this as a winning scenario whether or not Jews fully assimilate or not, with the conquering of the gentiles. He ends up talking about how racial homogeneity creates “the best fighting unit,” but not allowing Jews to emigrate to a nation is much worse than not allowing other minority groups, because Jews don’t have a homeland; “To close the gate against the Jew is not the same, then, as closing it against the Italian or the Pole” (215-216). Now that Israel is a well-established nation, I think they should also be more welcoming to immigrants of various ethnic backgrounds throughout the world.

Maurice Samuel doesn’t seem to believe there can be a reconciliation to the problem of the Jew and the Gentile. He is adamant that the Jewish people are superior to gentiles in almost every respect, and will be on the winning side of the issue no matter which direction it goes, as per the last couple chapters of the book. This instills a desire in me to fulfill my role as an obedient gentile servant in the world to come, under G-d’s sovereignty.

Unapologetically honest to a fault. His loyalty to Zionism is blatantly evident. The chapter on sport however is brutally true and will never change as history has shown. This could explain the correlation with Jewish IQs on average being higher then us gentiles.

Interesting read. I had to stop and ponder some parts several times, which is always good sign.

Before reading one should keep in mind that this is after all view of peculiar individual and one should have also have in mind the time it was written. Author relies on stereotypes heavily but that is core of the book and he is open and clear about it.

There are several general comments I would highlight.
On war he condemns gentiles and their approach to it - Jew fights when he has to and takes no pride or any sort of enjoyment in it. He does not gloat etc. Reading that in 2024 ,while you have dozen of Tik Tok videos of Israeli soldiers dancing on the ruble of what is left of Gaza, has tinge of dark comedy to it. And if one would try to say that it is gentile effect of Jews I would just point them to videos of Orthodox Jews looking at Israeli air force bombing Palestine and celebrating and dancing to it. I am not passing any moral judgment on Israel - that is separate topic, just pointing out that possible explanation for difference that he saw (assuming that he was correct) was not in some special Jewish proclivity but that it stemmed from the fact that Jews didn't have state to truly call their own. Once it was acquired same patterns of behavior present in gentiles emerged.

On utopia he for some reason compares Plato's Republic, which is work of (political) philosophy, with Jewish messianic age. He was really stretching the argument there.

Entire chapter about science is strange and feels like "sour grapes". Mass inclusion of Jews into sciences and academia in decades after the book was published speaks to his detriment. Just one of takes that didn't age really well.

At the moments I was taken aback by his brazenness and chutzpah. He stands as a judge to all European societies. He clearly states that by his nature Jew is fighting against the culture of the host country (something that I would expect from mouth of die hard antisemite) and then he goes on to say "On your side the fighting has been dirty." Oh, and he openly admits that he is racist; that until he meets someone in person he will be guided by stereotypes of ethnic group in question...and he is willing to argue for his point. Kind of respectable - these are my true opinions, these are reasons for them, I will not sugar coat them, do what you want with them - if nothing it is genuine.

Having in context time of his writing parts of it were very dark. How grim is for him to say (paraphrasing) "Your honor and rules of conduct are games and are meaningless. We are not compatible and it is in our nature to work against yours. Also, I do not care about actions of minority, I would pass judgement on the entire community of which they are part". Pardon my lyricism but I could see the shadow gazing over his shoulder into the words written "These are your conclusions? These are your terms? This is proper conduct? We accept."

Terrible writer even after one sets aside the bigotry, army of straw men employed against the Gentile monolith, assigning himself as the speaker for every Jew in existence with the caveat that any Jews who disagree with his views are Gentile in nature, and so on. What makes Maurice Samuel so terrible is he blathers on and on and on and it often takes him several pages for his drivel to be strung together into a semi-coherent point.

Pretty shitty book. For its length, it gave little insight into anything. Jooz are serious, gentiles play, pretend, and sport. So jooz ruin all the fun. He repeated that in different ways throughout the whole book. I wasn't analyzing deeply but I got nothing out of it, whereas with most other books that I give the same surface reading, I still get a decent amount of insight out of them.

Not exactly what I expected, there were actually some parts that weren't totally off base. However, in many parts the author shows his hatred of gentiles. At one point he says that because Jews experience so much discrimination, they (in particular) should be allowed to freely immigrate to and from any country with no restrictions at all.

Be a good goy and read this book.

A lot of nonsense. Quite shows why judaism is dangerous not only for christians,but for humanity as a whole. This religion of so called "god chosen people" who denied Christ and are currently waiting for the anti-christ is straight up dangerous to the man kind.

He also indirectly states that a minority of "his people" which he meant,the jews,are working and comploting a world wide government,which is exactly what freemasonery is about. Wikipedia also proves that freemasonery is a Bavarian jewish invention of these so called god chosen people.

Straight up dangerous. Even if i rated it one star,it's worth reading it,shows their true intentions.

Jewish Supremacy much?

Great Book! I Recommend The Suspension Of Judgement: Unless And Until The Reader considers several things: the time, place, i.e. "the Historical Context" (Which Is At Least circa 2500 years of History!). The West, has been described as Greco-Roman, Judaeo-Christian. With The "Christian" part having been Largely taken over by "Pagan Roman Emperors, etc." and the rest of the Christians that survived into the "Underground". I personally Deeply Appreciated The Authors Views Exposing Several Currents Of Conflict. I Find High Value in "Jewish" Frankness, AND "Gentile" Manners Of Courtesy. In My Opinion: Both Are Needed In This Volatile and Fast Changing World!
