Purim Special: From Esther to AIPAC
A prominent Jew reveals how the Holocaust has become a new religion, one that justifies new genocides and threatens Jew and Gentile alike
By Gilad Atzmon with preface commentary by Dr. David Duke
“Interestingly enough, the Holocaust religion extends far beyond the internal Jewish discourse. In fact the new religion operates as a mission. It sets shrines in far lands. As we can see, the emerging religion is already becoming a new world order. It is the Holocaust that is now used as an alibi to nuke Iran… To a certain extent we are all subject to this religion, some of us are worshipers, others are just subject to its power. Interestingly enough, those who deny the Holocaust are themselves subject to abuse by the high priests of this religion. Holocaust religion constitutes the Western ‘Real’. We are not allowed to touch it or to look into it. Very much like the Israelites who are entitled to obey their God but never to question him. ” –- Gilad Atzmon
Preface Commentary by David Duke
Gilad Atzmon is an accomplished writer and one of the most famous Jewish musicians in the world. His recent CD called Exile was named the year’s best jazz CD by the BBC. Atzmon served in the Israeli military but later came to be one of the most eloquent opponents of Zionism in the world. Atzmon helps us understand the Holocaust mentality of Jewish extremists. It is a mentality that long predates what is referred to as “The Holocaust” with a capital “H”, for as Atzmon denotes in the title of his article, this Holocaust mentality has been going on “From Esther to AIPAC.”
Atzmon points out that what is called “The Holocaust” has literally been made into a new religion, a religion where Jewish people have become literally the New Gods for themselves and for we, the goyim, who are all now burdened with the guilt of the ultimate sin and responsibility for it. Those who dare to oppose this new power on earth or who dare to question a single assertion of the new Holocaust orthodoxy have become the new heretics called “anti-Semites” and “Holocaust deniers.” Perhaps the high place of the new God the world worships can be shown by the fact that the alleged Jewish losses of six million during the Second World War command 90 percent of historical attention, 90 percent of the passionate books, plays, dramas, articles, broadcasts, interviews, sermons, commemorations and documentaries, while the sixty million non-Jewish lives lost in the war, the hundreds of millions of non-Jewish persons injured, hurt, dispossessed and who suffered terribly in the war – receive barely a pittance of remembrance.
Of course, if you read the mainstream Holocaust literature, why should the sixty million Gentile dead be honored, for they, like all Gentiles, are accomplices of the Holocaust. Read the Holocaust literature, it tells us how the Britons, the French, the Poles, the Hungarians, the Americans, Catholics and Protestants, The Red Cross, all — just stood by and let it happen.
Here are some fascinating excerpts from Gilad Atzmon’s article:
The Holocaust Religion
Philosopher Yeshayahu Leibowitz, the German born Hebrew University professor, was probably the first to suggest that the Holocaust has become the new Jewish religion. ‘The Holocaust’ is far more than historical narrative, it indeed contains most of the essential religious elements: it has its priests (Simon Wiesenthal, Elie Wiesel, Deborah Lipstadt, etc.) and prophets (Shimon Peres, Benjamin Netanyahu and those who warn about the Iranian Judeocide to come). It has its commandments and dogmas (‘never again’, ‘six million’, etc.). It has its rituals (memorial days, Pilgrimage to Auschwitz etc.). It establishes an esoteric symbolic order (kapo, gas chambers, chimneys, dust, Musselmann, etc.). It has its shrines and temples (Yad Vashem, the Holocaust Museum and now the UN). If this is not enough, the Holocaust religion is also maintained by a massive economic network and global financial infrastructures (Holocaust industry a la Norman Finkelstein). Most interestingly, the Holocaust religion is coherent enough to define the new ‘antichrists’ (the Deniers) and it is powerful enough to persecute them (Holocaust denial laws).
Critical scholars who dispute the notion of ‘Holocaust religion’ suggest that though the new emerging religion retains many characteristics of an organised religion, it doesn’t establish an external God figure to point at, to worship or to love. I myself cannot agree less. I insist that the Holocaust religion embodies the essence of the liberal democratic worldview. It is there to offer a new form of worshiping. It made self loving into a dogmatic belief in which the observant follower worships himself. In the new religion it is ‘the Jew’ whom the Jews worship. It is all about ‘me’, the subject of endless suffering who makes it into redemption…
…Though Holocaust religion didn’t replace Judaism, it gave Jewishness a new meaning. It sets a modern Jewish narrative allocating the Jewish subject within a Jewish project. It allocates the Jew a central role within his own self-centered universe. The ‘sufferer’ and the ‘innocent’ are marching towards ‘redemption’ and ’empowerment’. God is obviously out of the game, he is fired, he has failed in his historic mission, he wasn’t there to save the Jews. Within the new religion the Jew becomes ‘the Jews’ new God’, it is all about the Jew who redeems himself…
… Interestingly enough, the Holocaust religion extends far beyond the internal Jewish discourse. In fact the new religion operates as a mission. It sets shrines in far lands. As we can see, the emerging religion is already becoming a new world order. It is the Holocaust that is now used as an alibi to nuke Iran. Clearly, Holocaust religion serves the Jewish political discourse both on the right and left but it appeals to the Goyim as well, especially those who are engaged in merciless killing ‘in the name of freedom’. To a certain extent we are all subject to this religion, some of us are worshipers, others are just subject to its power. Interestingly enough, those who deny the Holocaust are themselves subject to abuse by the high priests of this religion. Holocaust religion constitutes the Western ‘Real’. We are not allowed to touch it or to look into it. Very much like the Israelites who are entitled to obey their God but never to question him.

Atzmon’s incredibly insightful article shows us that extremist Jews seek to use the Holocaust as a narcissistic death and redemption theme that essentially denies an external God (he failed to rescue them) and replaces Him with the Jewish people themselves. The one thing I would add is that the Holocaust religion not only makes Jews a God to themselves, it also seeks to make themselves the new God of the Gentiles. It is an all-powerful God that Gentiles are obliged to worship at the altar of the Holocaust. Gentiles must pronounce their belief in his holy writ (The Holocaust). No one may question or challenge this new God, for whom we must kill, torture and oppress other peoples, and ultimately — even sacrifice ourselves.
