Dylann Roof and Jared Taylor
Propaganda
is the bread and butter of covert action.
From
the beginning, there seemed to be a very contrived, orchestrated quality to the
reported killing by a young white man of nine black Bible studiers at a famous
old A.M.E. church in Charleston, South Carolina. Who could miss it, what
with all the carefully posed photographs that came to light with the alleged
perpetrator, 21-year-old Dylann Roof, holding a
Confederate battle flag, wearing white African colonialist patches on his
jacket, holding a gun, burning an American flag, visiting a slave plantation,
etc.? No one has been identified as the person who took any of the
photographs. Who was it?
Roof,
from a broken home, had dropped out of school after repeating the ninth grade
and was only fitfully employed. His main activities seem to have been playing
video games, taking recreational drugs, and chilling out with his friends,
several of whom are black.
If
the orchestration had a purpose, as a CIA operation of some sort, it seems to
have been to cement in the public mind the idea that traditional white Southern
society, the Confederacy, and the Confederate battle flag that Roof flaunted in
the photos represent racism, pure and simple, and that the Civil War was all
about ending the Souths oppression of black people. That was certainly
the message that the media—almost as one—carried to the public, as
did the politicians who took their cue from the media. Playing his role
in projecting that message, and more, that concern over rampant immigration is
also based upon racism, has been a very unlikely character by the name of Jared
Taylor.
Taylor
came into the Charleston scenario in a rather odd way. A few days after
the shooting there turned up on the Internet a long written piece that is
purported to be the ninth grade drop-out Roofs manifesto. Early in that
document the writer explains how he, in effect, turned into a white racist from
someone who previously had had little racial animus through his discovery on
the Internet of the web site of the Council of Conservative Citizens (C of CC) with
these pages upon pages of brutal black on White murders that supposedly got
ignored by the press.
Immediately,
the media spotlight was turned upon that organization. That organization, in turn, put forward
Jared Taylor as its spokesman, something that he had apparently never been
before. That position is normally
held by the native South Carolinian Kyle Rogers. Taylor is the founder and head of a
separate racialist organization by the name of American Renaissance. Here is Taylors rather vague
explanation to an interviewer for the Austin Statesman as to how he was picked
to be the C of CC spokesman in the wake of the Charleston event:
How did it fall on you to be the spokesman for the C of CC at
this moment?
The president of the C of CC, new in office after the death of
Gordon Baum, did not wish to speak to the media, so I stepped into this fiery
breach.
If fanning racial flames is what you want—from the white
as opposed to the Al Sharpton side of the issue—Jared Taylor is certainly
the man for the job. It is his very
raison d'tre. And in his televised interview by
prominent TV journalist David Shuster, now working for Al Jazeera after
previous stints with Fox News and MSNBC (covering all the ideological bases),
he did not disappoint.
The voice of temperance and reason at this point would say that
anyone who would slaughter nine perfectly innocent
and defenseless strangers for
whatever reason is clearly seriously mentally unbalanced, and a person like
that might have used any excuse for the killings. A really genuine person would also
question the authenticity of that manifesto, which, as Gordon Duff on Veterans Today
points out, reads nothing like the work of an early drop-out from high
school. But when Shuster starts off
with, Roofs manifesto says he got his inspiration from your web site Taylor
accepts the premise that its Roofs writing and that the C of CC web site is
his own web site (after all, he has volunteered to be their spokesman). He only takes issue with the word
inspiration, saying that Roof got information instead, and launches into a
plug for the C of CC message, that is, that violent crimes by black people
against white people are rampant, taking place at a much higher rate than white
crimes against blacks. Then he says that that information was so disturbing because
this fact is almost never reported, pretty much restating and confirming
Shusters point, that is, that it was the anti-black information on the C of CC
web site that persuaded Roof that it was his job to somehow set things aright
by going on a killing spree.
Its
really hard to see how Shuster and Taylor could have done any better job of
fanning the racial flames than they did with that opening exchange. Driving home the message, as Shuster
makes his opening charge, the words WHITE NATIONALISM, DYLAN ROOF VISITED
CONFEDERATE LANDMARKS is plastered across the bottom of the screen. It stays there for about half a
minute. Later we get WHITE NATIONALISM,
COFCC SITE DETAILS BLACK ON WHITE MURDERS and WHITE NATIONALISM, COFCC PRES
GAVE MONEY TO GOP CANDIDATES.
These little incendiary billboards are only briefly interrupted
throughout the interview with JARED TAYLOR, COUNCIL OF CONSERVATIVE CITIZENS,
reminding viewers of who the interviewee is.
Later
in the interview Taylor makes the valid point that blaming the C of CC for
these murders would be like blaming global warming opponents for their message
if an anti-global-warming zealot should go on an Exxon-executive-killing binge,
but at that point hes only salvaging credibility with his supporters. The damage that, from all appearances,
he and Shuster together had set out to do, had been done. Mr. White Nationalist and his supposed
journalistic adversary had cemented in the minds of viewers the notion that
Southern Confederate-inspired ideas were responsible for a horrible tragedy.
It
is perhaps understandable that Taylor would not want to challenge the
authenticity of the manifesto, thereby calling critical attention to it. After all, in its academic style, it reads
a good deal more like something Taylor might have written than what Roof would
write:
On
another subject I want to say this. Many White people feel as though they dont have a unique culture. The reason for this is
that White culture is world culture. I dont mean that
our culture is made up of other cultures, I mean that
our culture has been adopted by everyone in the world. This makes us feel as
though our culture isnt special or unique. Say for
example that every business man in the world wore a kimono,
that every skyscraper was in the shape of a pagoda, that every door was a
sliding one, and that everyone ate every meal with chopsticks. This would
probably make a Japanese man feel as though he had no unique traditional
culture.
Does
this really sound like young Dylann Roof writing,
with his very limited education and experience? Would contrast with Japan really be the
first thing to come to his mind?
Would he even be likely to know that in traditional Japanese houses
rooms are separated with sliding doors made of rice paper? But, hey, maybe he saw it in his very
unlikely favorite film:
To take a saying from a film, I
see all this stuff going on, and I dont see anyone
doing anything about it. And it pisses me off.. To
take a saying from my favorite film, Even if my life is worth less than a
speck of dirt, I want to use it for the good of society..
The
movie (no unpretentious American, particularly poorly educated Southerner,
would call it a film) hes talking about is the 2001 Japanese production Himizu.
Jared
Taylor grew up in Japan as the son of American missionaries. He is fluent in Japanese and French; a man of the world, unlike Roof. Would Roof even think in terms of
contrasting cultures?
Jared Taylors
Pedigree and Performance
Taylor,
who was educated at Yale and the Paris Institute of
Political Studies, which he pretentiously renders in
French on his home
page, would definitely think like
that. He also at least pretends to
think like this:
What We Believe
Race is an important aspect of individual and group identity. Of
all the fault lines that divide society—language, religion, class, ideology—it is the most prominent and divisive. Race
and racial conflict are at the heart of some of the most serious challenges the
Western World faces in the 21st century.
The problems of race cannot be
solved without adequate understanding. Attempts to gloss over the significance
of race or even to deny its reality only make problems worse. Progress requires
the study of all aspects of race, whether historical, cultural, or biological.
This approach is known as race realism.
Well,
one can play it up or one can play it down. Taylor, like Sharpton, is all about
playing it up, just the man to trot out in the wake of the Charleston incident
to add some more fuel to the fire.
He is
also, no doubt, very media savvy as we can see from the long list of mainstream
publications in which his writings have appeared. He would have known exactly what he was
getting into when he agreed to that interview with Shuster. With his own YouTube channel for
American Renaissance he could have put out his views on the Charleston episode
without volunteering to be the C of CCs on air spokesman for takedown
interview purposes. In short, he
went into that malignant-message-magnifying media circus with his eyes wide
open. I can easily see Taylor and
Shuster in pre-interview rehearsal and a private post-interview session,
high-fiving one another over beers: We really nailed it, didnt we? Visions of the phony Christopher
Ruddy, complicit in his own public
embarrassment at the hands of Mike Wallace on 60 Minutes, also come to mind.
At
least in his short, sharp exchange with Shuster Taylor didnt manage to tarnish
the Confederate flag directly, another of the apparent purposes of the
Charleston operation, but Shuster and his producers took care of that part for
him, at one point in the interview putting up one of those infamous photos of
Roof with the battle flag. Taylor
would save his own battle flag mud dragging for another interview, with
CNN. Here is a passage from their
article, White
supremacist group stands by racist ideology:
Jared Taylor, a spokesperson for the
Council of Conservative Citizens, spoke to CNN from his home in northern
Virginia, where he has numerous Confederate war bonds and a small Confederate
flag serving as decorations.
There
you have it. The attackers of the
flag all have it right. With his
display for the CNN reporter, the Yankee Yalie Taylor
has driven home the message that the Confederate battle flag stands for nothing
but racism, racism such as that espoused by the Council of Conservative
Citizens. It doesnt stand for the
brave struggle against imperial tyranny put up by men like my great grandfather
John Henry Martin, from a county in North Carolina in which there were
virtually no slaves, who spent the last months of the war as a POW in the
Yankee hell hole of Point Lookout in southern Maryland.
Birds of a Feather
Justifying
his decision to publish on his FrontPageMag.com
Jared Taylors article on the greatly underreported black on white Wichita Massacre, while holding him at
arms length because of his racialism, David Horowitz says, Jared
Taylor is a very intelligent and principled man.
He has it half right. In so
doing, he publicized Taylors racial posturing (I hesitate to say that they are
Taylors actual views, if he really has any on the subject.), and lobbed
softballs giving Taylor the opportunity to reply.
Taylors response ends very tellingly this way:
Not long before he was assassinated, Yitzhak Rabin
told U.S. News and World Report that as Prime Minister of Israel he had worked
to achieve many things, but what he cared about most was that Israel remain at
least 90 percent Jewish. He recognized that the character of Israel would
change in fundamental-and to him unacceptable-ways if the non-Jewish population
increased beyond a small minority. Equally obviously, the character of the
United States is changing as non-whites arrive in large numbers.
Throughout most of its history, white Americans
took the Rabin view: that their country had a distinctly racial and ethnic core
that was to be preserved at all costs. When Mr. Horowitz writes about the good
old American ideal, that is what he should have in mind, not a historically
inaccurate view that drapes a radical new course with trappings of false
tradition.
By all means, let Israel remain Jewish, but by the
same token let the United States remain majority-white. Mr. Horowitz has a
distinguished record of fighting double standards, so he should recognize one
when he sees it. If he supports a Jewish Israel, he should support a white
America.
Dont
look for any protests from Taylor about Israels apartheid wall or its South
Africa-like apartheid policies toward the former majority population of
Palestine before it was overwhelmed by Zionist-pushed primarily European
migration. His answer to Jewish
tribalism is white-race tribalism, an absolutely guaranteed political loser, *
and he surely knows it.
It
is perhaps fitting that he should be doing this polite jousting with
Horowitz. Horowitz first came upon
the national scene as the editor of the counter-culture, anti-Vietnam War
magazine Ramparts. Later, after his brief but prominent
stint as a radical leftist, he changed his mind and became the
neoconservative, rabidly anti-Muslim editor of the slick mysteriously financed Frontpagemag.com.
Anyone
taking Horowitz and Ramparts at face
value needs to spend some time reading the well-documented Ramparts Was Also a CIA Front by Miles Mathis. Says Mathis, It looks like [Horowitz
and his buddy at Ramparts, Sol Stern] got tired of the pose, or were bad at it, and
were allowed to adopt the opposite pose.
It must be tiring for fascists to pretend they are leftists or radicals
for any length of time.
Taylor
never played the radical leftist role, but his parents, he says, were standard
liberals and he seemed to be one, too, until he started his racially
dissident organization American Renaissance in 1991, some 18 years after his
graduation from college. When it
comes to questioning his legitimacy, the late Michael Collins Piper is Taylors
Miles Mathis. Various quotes from
Pipers books in which he refers to Taylor can be found on the Internet. This one is from The Judas Goats: The Enemy Within, and
it concludes a long section about Taylors mysterious presence in Ghana in the
mid-1970s:
Although
we can only speculate as to what young Yale man Taylor was doing in Ghana in
the midst of intense CIA and Mossad intrigue in that
small country, the bottom line is that Taylors actions in America today—more
than 30 years later—suggest that Taylor (for whatever reason) has become
an asset (in a most unusual way) for advancing one aspect of the Zionist cause
within the American nationalist movement.
This Piper quote is from his High Priests of War:
The
record shows Taylor has a long history of attacking Arabs and Muslims. As far
back as November 1993 - nearly a decade ago, long before the widespread anti-Muslim
tendencies in America, stoked by the major broadcast media, particularly in the
wake of the 9-11-2001 terrorist attacks, Taylor's American Renaissance magazine
featured an article entitled "The Rise of Islam in America," which
asserted that "Islam lies at a dangerous intersection between race and
immigration," and which declared:
"Islam,
in its various forms, lies at the intersection of America's two most
dogma-laden and self-destructive policies: immigration and race relations. It was the purest idiocy to have
imported crowds of swarthy fanatics who are prepared to kill each other - and
us - over obscure conflicts in the Levant. Had no one noticed that Middle
Easterners fight out their unsettled feuds not only in their own countries but
in Europe as well? To have imported fanatics who worship the same god as the
Black Muslims was idiocy on stilts.
Taylors
Yale pedigree can hardly be underestimated. As I note in Does Yale Hold the Key? products of that
esteemed university were all over the cover-up of the murder of Deputy White
House Counsel Vincent Foster in the Clinton administration. Particularly germane in that article is
this quote from Cloak and Gown: Scholars
in the Secret War, 1939-1961 by Yale history professor Robin Winks:
From
Yale's class of 1943 alone, at least forty-two young men entered intelligence
work, largely in the OSS, many to remain on after the war to form the core of
the new CIA. Rightly or wrongly, a historian could, in assessing the link
between the university and the agency, declare in 1984 that Yale had influenced
the CIA more than any other university did. This
generalization was extended by a student journalist into the judgment that for
four decades Yale had influenced the Central Intelligence Agency more than any
other institution, giving the CIA the atmosphere of a class reunion.
Anti-Immigration Racial Oracle
Taylor
explains his assignment, er mission, here:
New Century Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization founded in
1994 to study immigration and race relations so as to better understand the
consequences of Americas increasing diversity. It sponsors publications and
books, and holds occasional conferences.
Among the books we publish are: A
Race Against Time, by George McDaniel and Jared Taylor, Paved with Good Intentions, by Jared
Taylor, The Real American Dilemma, edited
by Jared Taylor, Why Race Matters, by
Michael Levin.
Perhaps the most important publication of New Century Foundation
is The Color of Crime, New Century Foundations
report on differences in crime rates by race, bias in the justice system, and
interracial crime. First published as a monograph in 1999, the new 2005 edition
of The Color of Crime is available on-line as a
PDF.
New Century Foundation also published American Renaissance, a monthly
magazine dealing with race and racial issues here and abroad. The contents of
back issues of American Renaissance — along with key news items
and other revelant [sic] materials — are available on-line here.
If you appreciate the work we do, please consider supporting us with your donations. **
Please
note, dear reader, what is missing from that mission statement. He is out to tell us about the consequences of the increasing diversity
resulting from the increased immigration that the country has experienced. The last thing that he or David Horowitz
or their handlers would want us to take a cold, hard look at is who is causing it, who
is behind the push for ever more immigration. That one doesnt take a whole lot of
study. All one has to do is to
notice that the mainstream media, across the board, are all for immigration,
legal or illegal, the more the merrier.
The mainstream media, led by The
New York Times, The Washington Post, and the major television and radio
networks are also overwhelmingly Jewish owned and run.
With
his upfront obsession with the racial angle, from a white perspective, one can
be certain that Taylor gives little attention to those negative consequences of
untrammeled immigration that cut across racial and ethnic lines. The never-ending wave of Latin American
immigration in particular is depressing wages and working conditions for
blacks, whites, and Hispanics alike.
The
Taylor mission and method, widely distributed on the Internet, was on full ugly
display recently with An Open Letter to Cuckservatives,
reproduced here in full:
You arent just betraying your principles.
Dear Cuckservative,
You are not alone. Like you, Erick
Erickson at RedState.com, Matt Lewis at the
Daily Caller, Taylor
Millard at Hot Air, the blogger Ace of Spades, and
Jim Harper with the
Cato Institute are all squirming under the lash of this new coinage. They are
squirming because a single word–cuckservative–lays
bare the rot at the heart of your movement: American conservatism can conserve
nothing if it cannot conserve the nations founding stock. Ill put it bluntly:
Nothing you love will survive without white people.
Do you stand for limited government and a balanced budget? Count
your black and Hispanic allies. Do you admire Thomas Jefferson? He was a slave-holder who will end up on the dung heap with the
Confederate flag. Do you care about stable families and the rights of the
unborn? Look up illegitimacy, divorce, and abortion rates for blacks and
Hispanics. Do you cherish the stillness at dawn in Bryce Canyon? When the park
service manages to get blacks and Hispanics to go camping they play boom-boxes until 1:00 a.m. Was Ronald Reagan your hero? He
would not win a majority of todays electorate.
Do you love Tchaikovsky? Count the non-whites in the concert
hall. Do you yearn for neighborhoods where you can leave the keys in your car?
There still are some; just dont expect them to be diverse. Are hunting and
firearms part of your heritage? Explain that to Barack Obama or Sonia Sotomayor. Are you a
devout Christian? Muslim immigrants despise you and your faith. Do you support
Israel? Mexicans, Haitians, Chinese, and Guatemalans dont.
Your great festival–CPAC–is as white as a meeting of
the Sons of Confederate Veterans. Thats because blacks and Hispanics and even
Asians dont share your dreams. Youve heard the old joke: What do you call
the only black person at a conservative meeting? The keynote speaker. Outreach
doesnt work. You cant talk someone into loving what you love. Faith,
patriotism, duty, and honor come from deeply cultural, religious, and ancestral
sources you cant reach.
Why do you evoke Martin Luther King when you call for a
colorblind America? You know he wanted quotas for blacks. You evoke King
because you think hell help you silence blacks and liberals. But it doesnt
work, does it? Thats because only whites–and Asians, when it suits
them–even think in terms of colorblindness. Blacks and Hispanics will
squeeze every unfair advantage out of you they can. At what point will they
ever abandon their aggressive racial agenda? When theyre the majority just
think how hard theyll squeeze your grandchildren.
You tell yourself that the things you love about
America–and I love them, too–are rooted in certain principles. That
is your greatest mistake. They are rooted in certain people. That is why
Germans, Swedes, Irishmen, and Hungarians could come and contribute to the
America you love. Do you really believe that a future
Afro-Hispanic-Caribbean-Asiatic America will be anything like the America your
ancestors built?
Lets consider your principles. Do you dream of a traditional,
religious, free-market society with small government, low taxes, and no gun
control, where same-sex marriage is illegal, and abortion, divorce,
prostitution, and illegitimacy are scorned? There are such places: the tribal areas of Pakistan and Somalia.
And what about countries that violate your principles–with
high taxes, huge government, clogged markets, a weak church, strict gun
control, and sexual license of all kinds? Theres Scandinavia. And yet if you
had to leave the United States youd much rather live in Denmark than in
Waziristan.
Do you see the pattern? Even when they violate your principles,
white people build good societies. Even when they abide by your principles,
non-whites usually dont.
We see that in America. Can you think of a majority non-white
neighborhood youd like to live in, or a majority non-white school youd like
your children to attend? No, you cant. Why, then, dont you fight with all
your strength against the forces of immigration and integration that are
turning ever-greater parts of your county into Third-World wastelands?
I know it would be frightening for you to step outside the ever
narrower confines of what we are permitted to say about race. You would court
the disapproval of every institution in America. You would pay a heavy price.
Not since the last Red Scare has the price of speaking out been so high. In the
1950s, it was dangerous to spout Marxist foolishness. Today, the most dangerous
ideas are the historical, biological, and moral truths that men such as
Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Mark Twain, Walt Whitman, and
your grandparents took for granted.
Muster up the courage. Speak these truths. They are your
heritage. They are your destiny. They are in your bones. And when you speak
these truths, you will join the people who see the only future for America in
which the things you love are even conceivable. When you speak these truths you
will join the camp of the saints.
And until you speak these truths you will feel the sting of the
word cuckservative. You will feel its sting because
you are not just betraying the heritage and promise of America. You are not
just betraying your principles and dreams–even though you think you are
working for them. You are betraying your people. (end
of complete Taylor article)
Its
really hard to overlook the fact that Taylors anti-immigration message is also
very much a pro-Israel and anti-Muslim message, but just to make sure you
didnt miss it Ive put the biggest indicators in bold. Taylor makes it
abundantly clear that in the fake social conservative field, he is little more
than a male, putatively gentile version of Diana West, another Yale graduate, I
might add. Considering how it is
being used, and who is spreading it around the Internet, its not hard to
figure out who is behind the coinage of the cuckservative
neologism. He doesnt go so far as
to speculate about intelligence agencies, but one of the bloggers that Taylor
decries, Ace of Spades, notes the words
sudden ubiquity:
However,
it's an objective fact that many using the term, and stinging social media like
race-warring hornets, are indeed out and proud white supremacists, or at least
the sorts of person who casually uses the word "muds" (as in
"I'm not going to stand by and see my country polluted by muds"
-- that sort of thing) in the belief that this is a socially-acceptable
shorthand for "anyone who isn't a Scots-Irish-or-Germanic white
person."
So
what Gabe was complaining about, so you know the context, is that these people
have not only come out of the closets, but they have come out of the closets in
force -- that is, they are really swarming Twittergotta
admit, I feel a lot dirtier about being an immigration-restrictionist
now than I did an hour ago.
It's
as if, Ace of Spades goes on to say, on the heels of last month's raacial [sic] shooting, someone gave the GO code: Now we show our hand.
And
right in the thick of it all is our boy Jared Taylor. Just like those who would display the
Confederate flag, anyone who would be concerned about the flood of immigrants
to the country is nothing but a bigoted racist. And here is Catherine Rampell of The Washington
Post to make sure you get the message:
Witness legions of white nationalists lining up behind [Donald Trump],
and the coded dog-whistle politics that other candidates are invoking to
attract their own anti-immigrant coalitions. The link takes you to an August 31 New Yorker article on the Donald Trump
political phenomenon that features Taylor in his racist role:
Ever since the Tea Partys peak, in 2010, and its
fade, citizens on the American far right—Patriot militias, border
vigilantes, white supremacists—have searched for a standard-bearer, and
now theyd found him
Jared Taylor, the editor of American Renaissance,
a white-nationalist magazine and Web site based in Oakton, Virginia, told me, in
regard to Trump, Im sure he would repudiate any association with people like
me, but his support comes from people who are more like me than he might like
to admit.
---
When Trump started emphasizing the mortal threat
posed by undocumented immigration, Americas white nationalists rejoiced. Why
are whites supposed to be happy about being reduced to a minority? Jared
Taylor, of American Renaissance, asked me. Its clear why Hispanics
celebrate diversity: More of us! More Spanish! More cucaracha!
Taylor, who calls himself a racial dissident, was
slim and decorous in gray trousers and a button-down when we met. For years, he
and others have sensed an opportunity on the horizon to expand their ranks. When Obama was elected in 2008, Stormfront,
the leading white-supremacist Web forum, crashed from heavy traffic. The
Klan, weakened by lawsuits and infighting, barely exists anymore, but the
Internet draws in young racists like Dylann Roof, who
is accused of the June 17th massacre of nine people at a church in Charleston.
The attack inspired a broad effort to remove the Confederate flag—from
the state capitol and from the shelves of Amazon and of Walmart
and a host of other retail stores. Defenders of the flag were galvanized, and
they organized more than a hundred rallies around the South, interpreting the
moment, months after racial unrest in Ferguson and Baltimore, as a sign of a
backlash against political correctness and multiculturalism. Trumps language
landed just as American hate groups were more energized than at any time in
years. Griffin, the blogger for the League of the South, told me that the
removal of the flag had crystallized fears that people have about what happens
when we become a minority. What happens when we have no control over things?
Youre seeing it play out right now.
Over sandwiches in the dining room of Taylors
brick Colonial, with views of a spacious back yard, a half-hour from downtown
Washington, D.C., five of his readers and friends shared their views on race
and politics, on the condition that I not use their full names. They were white
men, in white-collar jobs, and each had a story of radicalization
So,
just as Taylor invited Al Jazeera and CNN to make himself and the Confederate
flag look bad, he invited the quintessential organ of the Eastern liberal
establishment, The New Yorker, to
make himself and Donald Trump and concern over immigration look bad. What you will never get from Taylor, any
more than you will get it from the mainstream press, putative liberal or
conservative, is any exposure of whats really behind the flood of immigrants
and how it is taking place. For
that you have to turn to my series of articles, the most recent of which is Wrist Slap for Top Alien Smuggler?
Taylor and Roof Again
Taylor
really doesnt need those news organs to make himself
or whatever cause he wants to taint look reprehensible. He can to do that by himself. Here we see him at work in an article
entitled The Mind of the Killer.
I have never met Dylann Roof. He is
reported to have been a high school dropout and drug taker, who expressed
confused and even incoherent opinions about race. He is also a mass murderer.
However, for professional reasons, I am acquainted with a large number of young
white men—and some women—who share enough of his views to give me
what I believe is a good sense of his motives.
---
In the rush to take action after the Charleston killings we are
already doing things that will make similar attacks more likely, not less.
There have been strong calls to emphasize the racial sins of the past and to
make doubly sure that every new generation learns about them. The Atlantic,
for example, published a syllabus of readings to help understand
the Charleston shootings. It is all about slavery, Jim Crow, and the civil
rights movement.
Yes,
he is telling us, there is a rational connection between what Roof allegedly
did (although theres no allegedly to it as Taylor explains it) and genuine
feelings of white grievance. If the
amorphous politically correct crowd doesnt stop picking on white people we can
very well expect more such mindless slaughters.
Taylor
might actually be telling the truth when he tells us that he never met Dylann Roof. He
wouldnt have needed to in order to be part of the same operation. That large number of young white men
with whom he says he is acquainted could have given him more than enough ideas
for him to use in that manifesto.
With their vast difference in age, education, and experience, they have
one big thing in common. Neither
seems to have come by his racism honestly.
Its not in the family heritage of either man. For Roof, think of the young former
Marine posing with that rifle who they say pulled off a motiveless presidential
assassination, and for Taylor a whole host of names come to mind, going right
up to a man who would become CIA director and later president of the United
States. Reflecting on the unusual
political metamorphosis of both Roof and Taylor, there is an expression from
the intelligence community that comes to mind. Its called sheep-dipped.
Looking
at the blank stare on the face of Roof, I am reminded of the clearly
sheep-dipped Timothy McVeigh and also of the Aurora,
Colorado, shooter James Holmes and Robert Kennedys purported killer Sirhan Sirhan. For his part, Taylor makes me think of
my opening paragraph in How to Become a Made Man in the Media.
A late uncle of mine who flew a spotter plane for the Air Force
during the height of the Vietnam War once told me that during his stint there
one of our intelligence services tried to recruit him. He declined the
offer, he told me, but only after he had gone so far as to take a required
psychological evaluation for them. The experience, he told me, appalled
him. I could tell from the questions, he said, that they were looking
for someone who was immoral.
Watching Taylor in action, I fancy that he would have gone off
the charts in the other direction from my uncle.

Addendum
Its too bad that when I wrote this article John Alan Martinson
had not yet posted The Plague of White
Nationalism. No one does
a better job than Martinson of explaining what is wrong with this very
misguided movement, a movement that now counts Jared Taylor as one of its leaders:
Yes, the White Nationalist is so
confused that he will spend hours making documentaries, writing articles and
giving speeches about the horrors inflicted upon the German people during World
War II, and yet spout the same tired rhetoric that will see to a repeat of
history. He will say that the power of Jewish Supremacy rests upon its ability
to divide people, and then he will try to divide humanity against itself.
I seriously doubt that Taylor,
himself, is confused, but certainly anyone who would hearken to his siren song
is.
