The Jesuit–Zionist connection, pt. II: ultramontane French antisemitism’s old Herzlian kinship

Stale marshmallows and s’more “forgotten” history tidbits bound to arouse screeching from your local basementmongering Zionazi’s whine cellar...

That the France’s sitting president is the product of Jesuit education¹² is—bluntly put—not of superficially marginal notability as vast swaths of everyday “catechumen” may blandly gloss over. Quite to the contrary, it demonstrates the persisting factual reality of that old proverb (this author—self-admittedly—probably has thrown around more than anyone else on Substack) “there is nothing new under the sun”³ when one accounts the historical precedence of clerical French politics—before diving into the “bombshell” details, let’s ever-briefly recap the modern tumult. No less than three months prior, French election results unveiled the “far-right” National Front “Rally” at the cusp of power,⁴ and a subsequent scramble of “far-left” maneuvering (temporarily) thwarted Marine Le Pen’s ambitions the following week.⁵

No less than a few days ago (as of typing), Macron moved to appoint a “center-right” government rather than accommodate the leftists⁶⁷—whether this marks a larger, “gradualist” cynical shift to eventual ultra-rightist rule, I will not at the present time declare a presumptuous assertion on, though in light of the recent era’s notable “rightward” shifts across Europe and Latin America, let us nonetheless understand where France’s reactionary tradition derives from and inspect particularly its connection to Zionism.

First and foremost, Le Pen’s “National Rally” is undeniably of Nazi-Fascist-sympathizing neo-Vichyite origin no matter what Jean-Marie’s daughter Marine does to scrub its brownshirt-stained history.⁸ Curiously amusing for the public facade—to refute and get out of the way right now—is the seeming transition from her father’s virulently antisemitic⁹ “anti-Zionism” to Marine’s “philosemitic” Zionazi shilling.¹⁰ Yet, contrary to what your average NOG¹¹-brainwashed mental degenerate would seize about over here as spurious “proof” of anti-Zionism’s (artificially manufactured and fake) “correlation” to antisemitism, all Marine Le Pen’s reimaging demonstrates is that France’s fascistic “far-right” tradition has returned to its pro-Zionist roots after a period of trivially farcical “anti-Zionism.”

Whether Zionism is outwardly sold as philosemitism or antisemitism is superficial—its root tenets are inescapably drawn from the tradition of European (neo-Templar) ultramontane antisemitism. The only manifested difference here of modern reality from historical patterns is that French “Jews”—now successfully brainwashed into Zionist anti-assimilationist attitudes—have come to exuberant embrace of their old pogrom-inciting persecutors’ ideological descendants:¹²¹³¹⁴¹⁵

“Won’t last.” Really?

Ex. I: protofascist anti-Dreyfusard sympathies for Herzlian Zionism

Pt. I: Background

Some historical context: the Jesuit Order—as the chief ideological patrons of ultramontane totalitarian subservience to the Roman pontiff—outwardly vowed reactionary overthrow of all “Judaic-Masonic” influence they scapegoated for the French Revolution and its deposing of clerical/monarchist authority. Now yes, the ultramontanist clericalists were indeed simultaneously in cahoots with Freemasonic operatives leading right up to the Revolution,¹⁶ though this topic is not for today.

Anyways: the French Republic in the 1890s was plunged into internal strife when Jewish artillery officer Alfred Dreyfus was accused by the clerical rightists of treason in a witchhunt and banished for a treacherous duration. The ideological spearheader of this era’s Franco-Jesuits was “Fr.”¹⁷ Stanislas du Lac, summarily noted by Irish-American historian Leo H. Lehmann as the Antisemitic League of France’s figurehead.¹⁸ [already receiving the Substack email length notice when the real analysis barely started] The antisemitic agitators of the “Dreyfus Affair,” notes Lehmann:¹⁹

…were products of Jesuit schools or had Jesuit confessors. In France, as elsewhere, anti-Semitism and anti-Masonic campaigns took the form of ‘integrated Nationalism.’ They called for expulsion of Jews and Freemasons, the overthrow of the French Republic, and the setting up of a ‘Nationalist State.’

Edmond Paris’s Secret History of the Jesuits (1983) expands into a few specifics, namely that the principal anti-Dreyfusard, anti-Jewish polemicist—Édouard Drumont—was a documented protégé of du Lac.²⁰ The broad majority of French Catholicity was riled up in a fervor of (Jesuit-backed) anti-Dreyfusard propaganda, “absolutely united against” the hounded Jewish officer.²¹ As Paris notes, “only the secular clergy” among Catholic ranks maintained reservations about Dreyfus’s initial guilty verdict as the comprisal of anti-ultramontanist protest arose “almost exclusively from the ranks of Protestants, Jews, and laymen.”²²

Pt. II: the anti-Dreyfusards’ antisemitic Zionism

Drumont glowingly reflected on France’s anti-Jewish expulsion in the 14th century:²³

Thanks to the elimination of this poison, France, which was still plunged in the horrors of the Hundred Years War, was able to attain very rapidly an incredible degree of prosperity; she became the great European nation, predominant both militarily and in the fields of literature, the arts and of taste... Within France, everyone was if not rich, at least happy, for the Jew was no longer there to prey on the labour of others with his usury. In a word, from 1394, the date when she expelled the Jews, France rose continuously. From 1789, the date when she took back the Jews, France has been in continuous decline…

He in 1890 wrote that:²⁴

…people were saying: ‘If only someone would rid us of the Jews at any price! Send them back to Palestine and let's hear no more about them!’ and [Drumont] declared in 1891 that the aim of the antisemitic movement was to put ‘the [Jewish] corrupters and invaders the other side of the frontier.’

The antisemitic crusade waged by Drumont was extreme, outright glorifying:²⁵

…the burning of Jews in the past, and suggesting that a modern military leader should imitate the example of the seventeenth-century Vitry and use his sword against ‘the foreign Jews who are oppressing his country’. In La Libre Parole in March 1896, moreover, he advocated the execution of a few leading Jewish financiers as a kind of deterrent, a course that La Croix had also recommended in the early 1890s.

Drumont’s virulently antisemitic La Libre Parole (“The Free Speech”), by the way, enthusiastically endorsed Theodor Herzl’s 1897 First Zionist Congress.²⁶ No wonder Herzl himself privately assessed the most telling confession:²⁷²⁸²⁹

The anti-Semites will become our most dependable friends, the anti-Semitic countries our allies. We want to emigrate as respected people.

The unholy alliance continues! Herzl was “most impressed”:³⁰

…by the fact that Drumont’s articles in La Libre Parole, the newspaper he had published since 1892, expressed exactly what occupied Herzl himself.

Drumont and his likeminded contemporaries Jules Soury and Urbain Gohier, among others, summarized their banner, “France for the French! Palestine for the Jews!”³¹ Jean Drault—the lead Jew-hate inciter’s “friend and closest associate”—argued of France’s “recovery” necessitating the nation’s Jewish population sent “packing, back… to Palestine.”³² Gohier ignited the chant of popular support among Algeria’s petits blanc (“poor whites”): “Palestine for the Jews! The Jews in Palestine! And France and its thousands of millions for the French!”³³ And Soury—one of “racial” antisemitism’s chief ideological patrons—asserted his own thoughts this way:³⁴

…any man of the Aryan race, whether Christian or Buddhist, far from desiring the Jews’ conversion, wishes only to buy wheat and dates from them after they have reverted to being farmers in their ancient land of Canaan.

One subscriber to the Monument Henry fund—publicized by La Libre Parole to finance proceedings against Jewish assimilationist Joseph Reinach—called for French Jewry to be treated “as plague victims and sent packing to Palestine.”³⁵

When Drumont by 1913 gave “up on Zionism” only out of disillusionment with real-life prospects in pragmatic terms (worthy of note here is that not until the post-WWII era—after the Holocaust—did European Jewry become majority pro-Zionist³⁶), he bemoaned the Jewish assimilationists’ success against the pro-emigration efforts of—in his words—“great Jews” Herzl and Nordau.³⁷ Oh, by the way, Nordau was “especially”³⁸ a subject of extol from Drumont, whose stridently anti-assimilationist, nationalist ideology was congratulated in 1903 with the following:³⁹

The Jew who aspires to reestablish a homeland for himself is worthy of esteem. The Jew who wishes to have a flag is a decent Jew. ... Is not having a homeland the most critical of all duties? France for the French! Palestine for the Jews.

So let all that sink in: the foremost (and Jesuit-trained) antisemitic rabble-rouser in France from the 1890s-1910s was an enthusiastic supporter of the Zionist movement. Is the historical record almost conveying some sort of a pattern? To continue…

Ex. II: Vichyite Zionism

Pt. I: Jesuit blessings

French historian Pierre Birnbaum noted that the (“far-right”) antisemites’ Zionism “is suprisingly constant.”⁴⁰ I should add—before diving into Vichy’s notable Zionist favorabilities—that the French Nazi-collaborationist puppet regime was the (well-documented) product and brainchild of Jesuitry. “No return of Europe to a Vatican-Fascist hegemony,” as Lehmann pointed out:⁴¹

…would have been complete as long as Republican France with its principle of Liberty, Equality and Fraternity remained in existence. The Hitler-Petain-Vatican conspiracy succeeded where other attempts had failed.

Papist support for Vichy ascendancy couldn’t have been more clear than that Catholic religious orders “were restored to their former positions in France” no less than a week subsequent to Marshal Philippe Pétain’s seizure of control in June 1940.⁴² As the Jesuits “already had appeared in full force in Paris,” official Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano (“The Roman Observer”) the following month in July heaped words of kindness for “good Marshal Pétain” and scorned individual liberty of conscience—dubbed “human will”—as “intolerant of restrictions and has attempted to overstep all limits, first with criticism, and then with revolution.”⁴³ It furthermore applauded the French Republic’s demise as proliferating a spirit to:⁴⁴

‘…impose the supremacy of the common good over private interests of individuals, groups and parties,’ and expressed the hope that this ‘spiritual regeneration’ of France will be ‘the dawn of a new radiant day, not only for France, but for all Europe and the world.’

The Franco-Jesuit front La Croix—charged in 1944 for collaborationist treason—in Vichy “received instructions… from Pierre Laval” (Vichyite Prime Minister under Marshal Pétain).⁴⁵ Jesuit nuncio Monsignor Valerio Valerie joined the Paris archbishop of setting “the example to all the episcopate by ‘collaborating’ fully,” and the post-Liberation government’s request to the Vatican for recalling at least thirty “deeply compromised” bishops was satisified no more than 10%.⁴⁶

Pt. II: Nazi collaborators’ emigration sympathies

Now, unlike i.e. Haavara, I haven’t unearthed any instances of contact and transfer between Vichy and Zionist federations, though the fact remains that high-ranking (primarily ultramontanist Catholic) members of the Jesuit-propped, pro-Nazi Vichy puppet entity were fervently pro-Zionist in ideology: let’s start with Xavier Vallat, the “Commissariat-General for Jewish Affairs” who facilitated the mass deportation of French Jews to the Nazi death camps⁴⁷ and once boasted to an SS officer of having “been an anti-Semite far longer than you.”⁴⁸ He “wished to ‘settle them’ in Palestine,”⁴⁹ stating clearly his anti-assimilationist viewpoint in April 1942:⁵⁰

The Jew is a foreigner who is not content simply to want to live on the soil he has adopted momentarily; his natural rights as a member of a superior race, made to dominate the world, make him want to rule it.

Marshal Pétain’s civilian staff chief referred to the Zionist emigration proposal as “the only truly effectual solution [to the Jewish Question] that is both completely humane and Christian.”⁵¹⁵² (←psst, see this reference) Amidst Nazi occupation, a flurry of circulated tracts in Paris proclaimed the old Drumont/Soury/Gohier line: “France for the French, and the Jew in Palestine.”⁵³ Such ardent Zionist backing was “frequently to be found in a number of publications of the Vichy regime,” broadly eliciting “quasi-unanimous support at the time.”⁵⁴ Vallat’s antisemitic propagandist lackey Gabriel Malglaive advocated, in his own words:⁵⁵

…recognition of a Jewish Nation, hand in hand with the naming of a territory to be granted to it. Henceforth, all the Jews in the world would legally, officially regain the Jewish nationality that their heart has always secretly chosen. Those wishing to remain in France or Germany would remain there with the status of aliens.

Pt. III: post-WWII trend preservation

You thought the Nazi-Zionist kinship doesn’t get more interesting? Well, well:⁵⁶

Colonel Jean Thomazo (a leading supporter of Algérie française) and Jean-Louis Tixier-Vignancour (a former member of the Pétain cabinet) took part in a pro-Israel demonstration in Paris during the 1967 war. Anti-Semites such as Xavier Vallat, Lucien Rebatet and Henri Lèbre, who had been at the forefront of anti-Jewish propaganda in 1940–5, voiced their support for Israel, as did Rivarol and Aspects de la France, although neither newspaper repudiated anti-Semitism and Rivarol even questioned the reality of the Holocaust, both before and after 1967.

Vallat supported Zionism because he believed it was the most effective mean of convincing the Jews to leave France for Israel. Lèbre, a former columnist in the pro-Nazi weekly Je suis partout, held the view that because the Arab population in Israel and in the Arab countries had a much higher birth rate than that of Israeli Jews, the latter would be overwhelmed. He supported Israel because he believed the Arabs were pro-communist and hostile to the West.

Yes, you 100% assuredly read that right: the Vichyite Nazi collaborators who clamored the antisemitic death crusade and sent French Jews to the camps became outspoken supporters of the State of Israel. Following Charles de Gaulle’s controversial remark widely designated “antisemitic,” Vallat—whose expressed support for the Fourth Reich “was a rather embarrassing one”—rhetorically questioned with glee the following in an Action Française (“French Action”) publication:⁵⁷

Why should I hide the fact that the passage on the Middle East was the one that pleased me most?... In the past, when some poor sap who had stumbled into journalism happened to say that the Jews were an exclusive, unassimilable people convinced of their superiority and, ever since Jehovah's promise to Abraham, persuaded that it was their destiny to rule the world, M. Bernard Lecache [president of the League against Antisemitism] issued an urgent appeal for application of the Marchandeau law, which as everyone knows doubles the penalty for libel when a Jew is the object of attack... Charles de Gaulle said enough to find himself suddenly transformed into a disciple of Hitler, and really it's about time! Now it's Bernard Lecache's move, and we'll just stand by and watch how he scores!

Concluding notes

Marine Le Pen courts Zionist ‘Jews,’ opposes Judaism

Remember, Jews traditionally were for centuries defined as a religion—only when Zionism (in its modern incarnation attributed as an invention of proto-Communist ideologue Moses Hess by EIR researchers⁵⁸) came into mainstream acceptance did Jews come to be defined broadly in ethnic/“racial” terms. This distinction of definitive parameters is crucial to refute the inherently farcical notion that Marine Le Pen’s “National Rally” has become a real Jewish haven. See for yourself:⁵⁹⁶⁰

The fact of the matter is that French right-wing “Jewish” support for Le Pen as she attempts to sanitizingly rebrand National Rally as their friend—especially post-Oct. 7—doesn’t “prove” her movement as a sincere ally of (actual) Jews any more than Herzl and Nordau’s mutually fervent kinship with the antisemitic Drumont would laughably “prove” that the 1890s-era antisemitic ultramontanists were “friends” of then-Jewry simply on the grounds of favoring one [the Zionist apostate] “faction” of the Jews.

If anything, French Zionist “Jewish” support for Le Pen constitutes only a further demonstration their own grave apostasy in that they fundamentally disregard Judaism’s issues of sanctity and holiness to expediently back a candidate favorable for their preferred Nazi crime syndicate masquerading as a Middle Eastern “nation.” As I quoted from Ecclesiastes in the beginning of this posting, “there is nothing new under the sun”—Le Pen’s fanatical Zionism represents an enforcement of precedent.

Jesuitism and Zionism

This enigmatic puzzle is difficult to fully decode the links between, I will admit. In retrospective fairness—now that the article’s closure is reached—this “pt. II” essentially sheds light on the “outer”/“exoteric” manifestations of a singular agenda though has yet to prove an “inner”/“esoteric” implication at the “insider” occultic level of NWO top-down operations.

What the historical record—based off my current arsenal of reliably sound resources—implies is that Zionism is the fruit of Kabbalism (and very certainly Jesuitic insider occultism) at its “core” esoteric/occultic/insider workings and the fruit of (Jesuit-controlled) Anglo-Masonry in its “outer,” politically manifestated incarnation. This more or less accounts for the high affinity between the Jesuits’ “far-right” theocratic “front” organizations—manifested in Papal-Caesarist ultramontane reactionism culminating into Nazi-Fascism during the first half of the 20th century—and their Zionist “back” organization(s). The power structure of the New World Order most definitely points upwards to the Jesuit/Maltese controllers at the highest echelons of stringpulling rule, and as a corollary Zionism is therefore a puppet subsidiary of their broader, long-term aims.

I prefer to abstain from excessively presumptuous “predictions,” though at the very least it perhaps wouldn’t constitute an unfair note to observe that Zion(az)ism has (I’m sorry to say) enabled its superiors to accomplish what Dark Ages pogroms from “without” failed for centuries—subvert and control the thinking patterns of Jews (well, nowadays “Jews” seeing that they abandoned Judaism) en masse into blindly doing the NWO’s biddings. Whereas Jewish populations of past centuries were defined by unrelentingly rigid adherence to Talmudic Judaism, the modern day conveys quite the starkly different picture…
