Detroit’s City Council Calls for All-Black, Non-Immigrant Business Zone
Posted on: 2004-09-24 14:24:07

A majority of the Detroit City Council is pressing for the adoption of a blacks-only economic development plan that would use public funds to create a business district called African Town. The plan is based on a report by Claud Anderson entitled “A Powernomics Economic Plan for Detroit’s Under-served Minority Population,” which argues that integration has failed blacks in the cities and that they must be protected against economic competition from immigrants. ...

It should be obvious that any mention of Jews as a group with interests of their own that might not be shared with non-Jews is perilous. It seems sensible to me to quote impeccably Jewish source in order to avoid intemperate responses by the less mentally heathy posters on this board.

In my opinion, the historical record shows that Jewish pressure groups in the United States and western Europe agitated in order to open the borders to non-European immigrants as a means of weakening the ethnic homogeneity of communities that the Jewish pressure groups regarded as hostile and that some Jewish leaders are frightened now that the chickens have come home to roost.

Why Current Immigration Policy
Dooms American Jewry

[Excerpts]

Among the articles of faith in the waning culture of secular liberalism that has served as an ersatz religion for many mainstream American Jews, the most vulnerable tenet is belief in "generous legal immigration," the euphemism for open-borders immigration in the lexicon of American-Jewish public affairs agencies....

In recent years, Jewish presence at the highest levels of government has become routine. A majority of Clinton’s cabinet members were Jews. Jewish advisors play key roles in the Bush administration’s national security, foreign and military affairs. Had Gore become President, an Orthodox Jew would have been a heartbeat away from the nation’s highest office. If John Kerry is elected the next President, he will be the country’s first chief executive with Jewish roots....

Among the best-known indices of its success, 10 percent of the U.S. Senate is Jewish, as is a majority of the presidents at Ivy League universities, and faculties and student bodies at elite colleges and universities are typically 30 to 40 percent Jewish. Jews form a high percentage within the learned professions and among writers, nationally syndicated journalists, and publishers of some of the nation’s leading newspapers and periodicals, and as creators and disseminators of high and popular culture. They play the predominant role in Hollywood, and thus shape much of our self-definition as Americans. Jews also hold key positions within many leading financial institutions, especially within investment banking and the brokerage industry.....

A risible indicator of how marginal anti-Semitism has become is how many candidates for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination "discovered" their Jewish roots, or, if they weren’t lucky to have any, emphasized the fact that their wife and/or children are Jewish. In an earlier America, their forebears concealed their Judaism by changing their names or converting to Christianity; their descendants see an advantage in flaunting what their antecedents found prudent to hide. ...

The danger arises because mass immigration means importing mass anti-Semitism. The upsurge of violent anti-Semitism in Western Europe tracks perfectly with mass immigration, especially of Muslims. Mass immigration is also the generator of Balkanizing notions of extreme multiculturalism...

But change is underway. Large-scale immigration, unprecedented in magnitude and ceaseless in duration, is reshaping America. By the middle of this century the United States will cease to have a majority ethnic population.
