Alison Weir, author of Against Our Better Judgment: How the U.S. was used to create Israel
May 1, 2016, 2:37 p.m.
Author and historian Alison Weir recently came to Natick, MA, and spoke about her experiences visiting Israel and Palestine. Needless to say, she was shocked by the cruelty Israelis were visiting upon the native Palestinians. These experiences changed her life dramatically.
One result is the organization she founded and now directs, If Americans Knew (ifamericansknew.org). Another was her recent book, Against Our Better Judgment: How the U.S. was used to create Israel. Her talk includes a summary of the main points in this stunning book.
The book brings together meticulously sourced evidence to outline the largely unknown history of Zionist manipulation of U.S. public policy, including the recently-revealed activities of an illicit secret society involving two Supreme Court justices, Louis Brandeis and his protege, Felix Frankfurter. Two of the important bottom lines of this secret activity include (1) US joining with Britain in World War I, against the sound advice of most top advisors, and (2) US support of the creation of an Israeli state in Palestine, against the specific warnings of our most respected leaders. Predictably, both of these moves have caused monstrous suffering, deaths, and intensification of government corruption.
"Prodigiously documented... Alison Weir must be highly commended for throwing such a brilliantly hard light on the relationship between the United States and Israel," said Ambassador Andrew Killgore.
Another measure of her enormous integrity is savage dislike by the Zionist Lobby, which calls her "antisemitic." Ironically, it was the Zionists who urged host countries to reject Jewish refugees in order to make sure they get channeled to Israel, and also made a deal with Hitler for this purpose.
