Two days ago, I noticed that someone had found my blog via the Eustace Mullins tag here on WordPress. The only other post listed there, besides one of my own, was a post on a blog called tobefree: jeff’s freedom pages, owned by one Jeff Fenske. The post in question consists of just a quote from Mullins’s book Secrets of the Federal Reserve.
Jeff Fenske’s About page starts off with a picture of a license plate which says “NOHATE.” That being the case, I hope he’ll be willing to listen to reason regarding Eustace Mullins.
Jeff, please don’t blindly trust Eustace Mullins as an authority on the banking system or on anything else. Too many people have put blind faith in his writings (or in videos based on his writings). In fact, Eustace Mullins is a notorious Jew-hater who has also written a book titled The Biological Jew, which revives the medieval blood libel against Jews, claiming that Jews ritually drink the blood of Christian children. For more information, please see:
- Wikipedia article on Eustace Mullins
- collection of Usenet posts about Mullins on the Nizkor site
- Errata for Waking up from our Nightmare by Don Paul and Jim Hoffman
- The Myth of Jewish Control of the Federal Reserve System on the Anti-Defamation League site
Eustace Mullins’s hatred of Jews does not, in and of itself, prove that he’s wrong about the Federal Reserve System. But there are reasons to believe he’s wrong about the Federal Reserve System too.
For a very informative discussion about his and other claims about the Federal Reserve System, please see the debate about the Federal Reserve System starting on page 3 of the thread We Are Change – September threads on right wing views in the Truth Action forum.

The post linked below contains my preliminary research on yet another anti-“banker” claim, this one pretty obviously nonsensical.

This link provides a fairly simple rundown on how the concept of a gold standard works and fails:
Myth: The gold standard is a better monetary system. Fact: The gold standard causes deflation and depressions.
People who just desire a short summary of the arguments will likely benefit from it.

[…] If indeed it should turn out that anyone in the Israeli government was involved, there will, alas, be all too many people who will use this to try to stir up hatred of Jews in general. In the meantime, fear of the latter possibility seems to be a major reason why a lot of Jews are afraid of the 9/11 Truth movement in general. For that reason, I think it’s important for us not just to disclaim bigotry against Jews, but to show that we care about opposing bigotry of all kinds, including bigotry against Jews. (See my various posts on Jew-haters, especially Taking responsibility for counteracting bigotry in our midst and Please do NOT trust Eustace Mullins as an authority on the Federal Reserve System!.)

The “Dancing” Israelis were in a van in Jersey City. They were not flying the planes on September 11. Thats a given! They were probably monitoring station looking for Al Qaeda. Since the FBI and the CIA were determined NOT TO LOOK for Al Qaeda. The Israelis (Mossad) were determined not to alert the Americans while following internet chatter knowing something was about to happen.

Eustace Mullins is reshaping his image by excluding and downplaying his image as a Jew hater by excluding such content. Hes determined to just focus on elite conspiracies.

Unfortunately, Mullins is a sensationalistic panhandler quite independently of any issues about race. His ramblings simply are not reliable, period. In this article about Mullins
http://ernie1241.googlepages.com/mullins
the part which I found most interesting was where he comments on Mullins inventing the story about the John Birch Society being founded by the Rockefellers. The site’s commentary agrees with my own observations on such points. Mullins had claimed that Revilo Oliver one day told him that the JBS was secretly founded by Nelson Rockefeller. Oliver had published a book AMERICA’S DECLINE where he makes many scathing comments about Robert Welch and the JBS, but he never mentions Rockefeller. It’s hard to believe that Oliver would have left that out of the text had it been true. This story of Rockefeller-funds-JBS has always struck me as more hokum from Mullins, but it still gets passed around by a lot of people. Mullins simply has a flippant attitude towards facts and that’s that.
