Is Jim Fetzer a Nazi, or Just Stupid?

Yesterday I posted an interview with Jim Fetzer in which he (falsely) claimed that Homeland Security chief Michael Chertoff and Popular Mechanics editor Benjamin Chertoff of being cousins, based off the neo-Nazi newspaper, the American Free Press. A reader pointed out in the comments that he also accused Michael Chertoff of having dual American-Israeli citizenship, based off, you guessed it, another article in the American Free Press.

The AFP website is down (thankfully) but here is a link to a mirror of the article:

CONTROLLED PRESS CONCEALS CHERTOFF'S ISRAELI ROOTS
By Christopher Bollyn
Exclusive to American Free Press

Michael Chertoff, the new head of the Department of Homeland Security, was approved in a 98-0 vote in the U.S. Senate without the question of his Israeli roots and nationality being raised.

On February 15, 2005, Michael Chertoff, an apparent dual national with Israeli roots, was sworn in as the second Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The new "homeland security czar," who oversees the U.S. Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services, seems to be hiding his own dual-national status all with the cooperation of the controlled press.
On what does he base this? Well, his mother worked in Israel for a while.

The omission of Chertoff's mother's Zionist past suggests that there is an effort by the media to conceal his ties to Israel and his status as a "de jure" Israeli national, by birth.

Under Israeli law, a child born to an Israeli citizen, including children born outside of Israel as first generation out of Israel, is considered an Israeli citizen. The child remains an Israeli national until he or she formally renounces their Israeli nationality.

Even worse (gasp) his mother was a flight attendent:

Chertoff was born on November 28, 1953 in Elizabeth, New Jersey, to the New York-born Rabbi Gershon Baruch Chertoff and Livia Eisen, the first hostess for El Al, Israel's state-owned airlines, founded in 1948.
Then Bollyn suggests a newspaper coverup, even though he admits that he isn't even sure of Chertoff's mother's citizenship:

Even in 1998, however, The Star-Ledger was vague about Livia's nationality. "Born in Poland, Mrs. Chertoff lived in Palestine and Elizabeth before moving to Florida several years ago," it wrote.

Israel's citizenship law of 1952 says: "Any Jew who immigrated to Israel before July 14, 1952, was granted citizenship after declaring a desire to reside permanently in Israel." As El Al's first hostess, Livia probably held Israeli citizenship.
The article gets even stupider from there. This whole thing is silly though, because even if Chertoff had "dual citizenship" even Bollyn doesn't claim it was based on anything he did. He never applied for it, lived there, or even intended to live there. His mom worked there as a flight attendent. Although I suppose for a Nazi, that is enough to condemn you.

This is perfectly legal based on US law incidently:

A U.S. citizen may acquire foreign citizenship by marriage, or a person naturalized as a U.S. citizen may not lose the citizenship of the country of birth.U.S. law does not mention dual nationality or require a person to choose one citizenship or another. Also, a person who is automatically granted another citizenship does not risk losing U.S. citizenship. However, a person who acquires a foreign citizenship by applying for it may lose U.S. citizenship. In order to lose U.S. citizenship, the law requires that the person must apply for the foreign citizenship voluntarily, by free choice, and with the intention to give up U.S. citizenship.
Perhaps you are saying, James, I think the American Free Press is stupid, but aren't you a little over the top in calling it "neo-Nazi"? Well, that is a good question. Let's do a little research, since we know Uncle Fetzer won't.

The American Free Press was founded by a man named Willis Carto. Willis Carto also started a site called The Barnes Review. Here is a sample article from the Barnes Review. No, this is not a satire.







Christopher Bollyn has appeared on David Duke's radio show several times. And look, if you go to David Duke's website, look who all appears in his "links" section.

Well I am glad "Distinguished McKnight University Professor of Philosophy at the University of Minnesota, Duluth" Jim Fetzer, only uses sources of the highest unimpeachable character.

Poland attacked Germany?

Well, I guess if you count Germans 'capturing' their own radio station and broadcasting messages in Polish while leaving the body of an 'insurgent' behind - then yes, Poland attacked Germany.

Funny these nuts make up false-flag attacks, but ignore the real ones.

As many have said before - this is ideology not science.

I actually had the dual citizenship issue because I was born in Germany of American parents (on an Army base). It was a constant hassle during my youth because I didn't have a regular Birth Certificate; I had some document entitled "Report of Child Born Abroad to American Parents", which nobody wanted to accept (even the Catholic Church for my confirmation). So my mom did some research and found a way I could get a Birth Certificate. It required me to give up my right to any German citizenship. So we go in front of some judge, he asks me a couple questions and our application is accepted. And nobody ever asks for my Birth Certificate ever again.

The dual citizenship claim is usually a code word for "jew", so this is pretty much what I expected. The conclusion is that Chertoff my be a distant cousin of a guy he has never met and who may theoretically be eligible for Israeli citizenship. Based on this, he is a mossad agent covering up 9/11.

Nesnyc, you'll need to understand what "real history" is before trying to engage me in any kind of discussion of the subject.

Not really. That you know as "real" is the propaganda version and has no validity in fact. Face it, you wasted your money in "school" getting the Zionist version of things. Wake up and smell reality.

You should've taken the blue pill, Neo.

Its still at your disposal, those Joos don't have to rule the world if you don't want them to.


No thanks. ED is for wimps, I'm fine in that department.

The holyco$t caper is not about "Joose" ruling the world. They are indeed victims of it to be corralled in a country that didn't want them namely, Palestine. Now the Zionist/Masonic/Ruling Class (note, NOT Joose) could use their cannon fodder to have endless wars with the Arabs and confiscate their wealth. Jews are as much a victim of Zionism as the rest of us. In fact, Zionism is designed to eventually destroy "Israel" and the Jews.

WHAT wealth? Most of the middle east is a worthless pile of sand. The only resources at their disposal are oil and antiques. Neither of which would recoup the ammount of wealth needed to capture them in the first place. Only someone utterly ignorant of basic economics could make such an idiotic statement. And that's without even getting into just how psychotic you'd have to be in order to beleive in a "Zionist/Masonic/Ruling Class".

Awesome, Joan's gone anti-semite too. Well, it was bound to happen sooner or later, what with the company she's been keeping since she joined the 9/11 denial movement.

I don't give a shit about "just asking questions." I'm laying it down, telling it like it is. Too bad more "truthers" don't have a spine to just smack some sense into the foolish and stupid.

Right, which is why billions are made off of it yearly. What planet you living in?

The Zionist regime are the real anti-Semites since they want to kill all Semitic Arabs. The Zionists themselves are jealous since they don't have Semitic blood and are Khazar in origin.

Please get a clue. Didn't your "history" classes teach you about feudalism? What do you think those people just disappeared?

Joan is telling it like it is. The Zionist lobby is a fifth column in the US. They subvert our laws to their advantage and fool the stupid to go and die for Israel as is the case in Iraq and the coming war with Iran.

Saudi Arabia isn't the majority of the Middle East.

Saudi Arabia is the only place there that produces "black gold?" I reiterate, what planet do you live on?

I'm not at all surprised that you don't understand the meaning of "feudalism". You know, I've never considered evolution to be a controversial topic, but the ability of people like you to survive past chidhood gives me pause. Maybe creationism IS a more plausible explanation. The existance of a God with a twisted sense of humour certainly would explain your continued existance.

Our government had just been throwing American boys into the maw for years and years and by the hundreds of thousands, but every Israeli life was precious.

Yet another example of your clear ignorance. There's a reason why the US leads the way in armour technology, as well as developing tactics to decrease the number of casualties. Anyone who's had any sort of military experience, and who has had the pleasure of working along side the US military, will tell you that no country takes force-protection more seriously than the Americans. But, ofcourse, your civilian lifestyle is much better suited to judging foreign policy, military tactics, and the conduct of combat operations. Thanks for the input, I'm sure that with your credentials the US government will have no choice other than to immediately cease all combat operations and spend the next decade changing all aspects of foreign policy and military doctrine.

300 million people surrounded by ocean compared to 8 million surrounded by people who want them killed in the worst way.

Joan, perhaps you can tell the difference.

I actually agree with Joan on Vietnam in a sense. If they had flooded the country they would've had less deaths, as opposed to trickling in fighters over a decade and a half.

Although I know she didn't mean that.

Weird, I went to a college where almost everyone hated Israel. Guess that throws out your whole "indoctrination" idiocy.

What a ludicrous thing to argue, that the US government cares about "force protection" in wars they shouldn't be in in the first place!

What an idiotic thing to argue, that the US doesn't care about the lives of it's citizens simply because they happen to be fighting wars which you don't agree with.

People like you also argued against US involvment in WW2. They didn't consider it to be any concern of the US. They were wrong then, and you're wrong now. There will always be those amongst us who are too blind to see the neccesity of war untill it's too late. The kind of people who would have us "negotiate" with a known killer while he sits there reloading his rifle. For people like you, I have very little time. You can continue bitching about "unneccesary wars" all you want, but don't for a second presume to tell me about how much or how little the US government cares about the lives of it's soldiers.
