Anti-Jewish Conspiracy Theories Mark Farrakhan’s 2013 Saviours’ Day Address in Chicago

Louis Far­rakhan’s keynote address dur­ing this past weekend’s annual Sav­iours’ Day con­ven­tion once again fea­tured anti-Semitic con­spir­acy the­o­ries about Jew­ish polit­i­cal and finan­cial con­trol of the United States.

Among the anti-Semitic con­spir­a­cies Far­rakhan prop­a­gated dur­ing his three-hour address to approx­i­mately 8,300 peo­ple at the Uni­ver­sity of Illi­nois Chicago, is the notion that the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the Fed­eral Reserve Bank, and the Inter­nal Rev­enue Ser­vice (IRS) were set up by the Jews in tan­dem to con­trol the fis­cal poli­cies of the United States: 

“And today in 2013, we are in Decem­ber of this year 100 years since the cre­ation of the Fed­eral Reserve Bank and the Inter­nal Rev­enue Ser­vice and the ADL. America’s debt has gone from two bil­lion dol­lars to more than six­teen tril­lion dol­lars. Now they set these insti­tu­tions up to work in unity: the Fed­eral Reserve the IRS and the ADL. One was to cre­ate debt, the other was to enforce a tax pol­icy to take from the Amer­i­can cit­i­zens enough to pay that debt, and the watch­dog of the whole thing was to see who would rec­og­nize who did this and that’s when the ADL raised the cry of anti-Semitism, and now Amer­ica is see­ing her­self in ruin because of it.”

Far­rakhan also listed sta­tis­tics on Jew­ish mem­bers of the Sen­ate, the House of Rep­re­sen­ta­tives, and the Supreme Court before con­clud­ing, “Spe­cial inter­ests along with Zion­ist AIPAC are rob­bing Amer­ica of the prin­ci­ple of democ­racy and rep­re­sen­ta­tive government.”

Far­rakhan then raised the nom­i­na­tion of Sen­a­tor Chuck Hagel for Sec­re­tary of Defense to make claims against the Jew­ish State:

“You need a man like Sen­a­tor Hagel as your Sec­re­tary of Defense because a man with a mind like that will keep you out of fight­ing some­one else’s wars. You need a man in gov­ern­ment that has another opin­ion that is not con­trolled, and if the Sen­ate does not con­firm him as Defense Sec­re­tary because of his opin­ion on Israel, that only proves that the Sen­ate and the U.S. Con­gress is con­trolled by the Israel lobby, and it also sen­tences Amer­ica to war with Iran for the state of Israel.”

Farrakhan’s anti-Semitism has not been lim­ited to his lat­est Sav­iours’ Day address. The Nation of Islam (NOI) con­tin­ues to engage in a wide-ranging pro­pa­ganda cam­paign against Jews through its media arm.  For exam­ple, in a Feb­ru­ary 9 arti­cle in the NOI’s news­pa­per, The Final Call, Far­rakhan claimed that Jews con­trol the media and are behind what he describes as an inac­cu­rate por­trayal of him in a Life­time movie on the lives of Coretta Scott King and Betty Shabazz:

“The Jew­ish peo­ple behind this film have char­ac­ter­ized Far­rakhan as the ‘No. 1 Anti-Semite.’…Those who con­trol this movie, those who wrote the script—those who con­trol the media—all want to try me in the court of pub­lic opinion.”

Far­rakhan also con­tin­ues to pro­mote his ide­ol­ogy in a 52-week lec­ture series titled “The Time and What Must Be Done.” While the first seven install­ments of these lec­tures have focused mostly on the­o­log­i­cal top­ics, Far­rakhan some­times digresses into racist con­spir­acy the­o­ries. In one lec­ture he accuses the Amer­i­can gov­ern­ment of hatch­ing a plan to kill “two to three bil­lion peo­ple on our planet…Could this be why, in Africa, AIDS is slaugh­ter­ing black men and women, par­tic­u­larly in those areas where the min­eral resources of that area is nec­es­sary to keep Amer­i­can in power in this 21st century?”

Jews Control Black Politicians Says Deric Muhammad

Image From The Final Call Article

The Nation of Islam’s news­pa­per, The Final Call, pro­motes the anti-Semitic con­spir­acy the­ory that Jews con­trol all lev­els of Amer­i­can gov­ern­ment, includ­ing the Pres­i­dent himself.

The arti­cle, titled “The Secret Rela­tion­ship Between Black Politi­cians and Jews,” is writ­ten by con­trib­u­tor Deric Muham­mad, who is described as “a Houston-based activist in the Min­istry of Justice.”

Muham­mad claims that Obama “had to pledge alle­giance to Israel’s flag before he could pledge alle­giance to America’s as her pres­i­dent. He was fol­low­ing the course of the vast major­ity of Black politi­cians who fear the Jew­ish lobby more than they fear the Black vote.” He later describes being “sick­ened” by the way black politi­cians “kow­tow at the mere men­tion of AIPAC and the Jew­ish lobby.”

Muham­mad also min­i­mizes Jew­ish involve­ment in the civil rights strug­gle and paints it as part of a larger disin­gen­u­ous Jew­ish plan to gain con­trol over black politi­cians. “Jew­ish peo­ple bankrolled the Civil Rights Orga­ni­za­tions that marched to uproot the Jim Crow laws that Jews put in place so that we could secure to [sic] right to vote for Black politi­cians that would even­tu­ally end up under Jew­ish con­trol. You have got to be kid­ding me.”

The arti­cle also per­pet­u­ates myths about the rela­tion­ship between Jews, money, and undue polit­i­cal influ­ence, claim­ing “…the Jew­ish com­mu­nity can always use the might of their uni­fied dol­lars to bully our elected offi­cials into becom­ing cheer­lead­ers for ‘all things Jewish.’”

On June 13, The Final Call tweeted another arti­cle by Muham­mad pub­lished in Jan­u­ary that pro­motes sim­i­lar stereo­types about Jew­ish con­trol over African-Americans, specif­i­cally musi­cians. In the arti­cle, Muham­mad asserts there have been “decades of dra­con­ian record con­tracts, usury and the gen­eral slave/slavemaster rela­tion­ship between Black enter­tain­ers and enter­tain­ment exec­u­tives who hap­pen to be Jewish.”

Conspiracy Theories Mark Louis Farrakhan’s San Diego Address

Nation of Islam (NOI) leader Louis Farrakhan’s nearly three-hour speech in San Diego last week­end, titled “Guid­ance in a Time of Trou­ble,” was marked by myr­iad con­spir­a­to­r­ial attacks against the U.S., as well as Israel.

While media reports fol­low­ing Farrakhan’s remarks pri­mar­ily focused on his crit­i­cism of Obama’s stance on gay mar­riage and his “warn­ing” that God will severely pun­ish Amer­ica if it attacks Iran, anti-Semitism and anti-Israel vit­riol marked parts of his speech as well.

Far­rakhan reit­er­ated his views about how mem­bers of Con­gress are “afraid to speak out against the war­mon­ger­ing of Israel and their con­trol through AIPAC of your mem­bers of Con­gress.” “Joe Lieber­man and his crowd,” Far­rakhan said, are push­ing for war against Iran and “mov­ing the goal­posts” for Iran on the nuclear issue.

Far­rakhan also pro­moted the NOI’s book “The Secret Rela­tion­ship Between Blacks and Jews,” which argues essen­tially that the his­tory of slav­ery in the New World was ini­ti­ated by Jew­ish ship own­ers and mer­chants, who, as a group, the book main­tains, remained the pri­mary ben­e­fi­cia­ries of the slave economy.

“How many of you have heard of the Holo­caust?” Far­rakhan con­tin­ued. “Raise your hands. Jew­ish peo­ple want the world to know what Hitler did to them. Why? So it will never hap­pen again. Don’t you want to know what was done to you? This book should be in your col­leges in your African Amer­i­can stud­ies. But I know who writes your pay checks.”

In addi­tion to dis­cussing how much of the Amer­i­can south­west was taken from Mex­ico through “trick­ery” and how birth con­trol is a con­spir­acy by white Amer­i­cans to keep the white major­ity, Far­rakhan also attacked Pres­i­dent Obama’s posi­tion on gay mar­riage. “He’s the first pres­i­dent that sanc­tioned what the scrip­tures forbid…Why is it that all you politi­cians take your oath of office on the Bible? If the book is no good, what the hell are you using it for to take an oath of office…?”

Far­rakhan con­cluded his speech with a tirade warn­ing Amer­ica of calamity if it takes action against Iran. “So I’m warn­ing you Amer­ica, if you bomb Iran…The God that I rep­re­sent is going to take out some of your cities with earth­quakes… He’s going show you his power. In the mean­time, one calamity after another until you sub­mit, Amer­ica, and know that judg­ment is here…”
