Luke: "Is it tough being a non-Jew in a Jew dominated business?"

Mike South: "You want to know the truth Luke? It is a pain in the ass getting all these Jew cocksuckermotherfuckers to pay me on time."

Chaim writes: I then warned you that there would be repercussions to such hate on the web. Hate is bad. Hate must not go unchallenged. Lawyers are engaged, faxes are being sent - more later. Until then, make yourself a gut yontif. The Jewish persons at the ADL are nothing if not vigilant in the war against hate on the internet. They have responded to your viciously antisemitic canard in advance of the sabbath. (That you continue to publish such filth tells us all we need to know about the validity of your "conversion.")

From the Anti-Defamation League [with sex industry and pornography substituted by Chaim for the ADL's comments on Jews in Hollywood]:

Alleged Jewish 'Control' of the American Sex Industry

For centuries, anti-Semitic propaganda has demonized the Jew as a conspiratorial, manipulative outsider, often with powers and designs of world domination. From the Middle Ages through the Holocaust, fabricated accusations against Jews as poisoners and corrupters have led to horrendous suffering for the Jewish people.

In more recent years, the anti-Semitic notion of Jew as corruptor of the world through mastery of popular culture as resurfaced across the extremist spectrum in discussions of pornography and prostitution. Contemporary sexual anxieties and distrust of national cultural elites have given new life to this timeworn myth. The world of sexual politics is an area of complexity, if not mystery, to most Americans, and confusions can easily be manipulated and suspicions aroused. The bigot?s rationale is often conveyed in inflated images of intricate, stealthy "conspiracies.

Indeed, for the better part of this century, anti-Semites have alleged that American Jews have conspired with their co-religionists to "control" the pornography and prostitution industries in the United States and Europe. (Indeed, one of the first to make this lurid accusation was Adolf Hitler in "Mein Kampf".)

The assertion that Jews "control" pornography, or Hollywood generally, the media, banking and finance, among other things, is an anti-Semitic canard which dates back more than 70 years to an anti-Jewish campaign waged in the 1920s by the Dearborn Independent, a long-defunct publication backed by the late industrialist Henry Ford Sr. The Dearborn Independent had mounted a seven-year anti-Semitic campaign based on the notorious and fraudulent book, The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion.

(In 1927, and again in 1942, Ford apologized to the American Jewish community for the harm done by his newspaper's campaign. Since then, the Ford family and the Ford Motor Company have engaged in numerous projects and endeavors in the public interest that have been supportive of Jewish concerns.)

Conspiracy Theory Persists

To the present day, anti-Semites have continued to allege that Jews are engaged in a conspiracy to "control" pornography. Indeed, the Dearborn Independent's anti-Jewish writings continue to be circulated by anti-Semitic entities such as Liberty Bell Publications under the title The International Jew: The World's Foremost Problem.

Even a reputable British magazine in 1994 revived the stereotype of Hollywood in which an alleged "Jewish cabal" controls the industry. The article, in The Spectator, authored by William Cash, a Hollywood correspondent for the conservative British newspaper The Daily Telegraph, contended that Jews have created an "invidious and protective culture" that denies employment to non-Jews in the making and distribution of pornography.

The Anti-Defamation League expressed outrage at the article, saying that it raised the age-old canard of Jewish control and conspiracy and was reminiscent of classic anti-Semitic propaganda of the past hundred years.

"Those Jews who enter the pornography industry have done so as individuals pursuing the American dream, not as representatives of their religious group," commented ADL National Director Abraham H. Foxman. "Moreover, anti-semites never seem to take note of the fact that the most prominent pornographers in America are Hugh Hefner and Larry Flynt, neither of whom is the least bit Jewish. Finally, though individual Jews may play a role in pornography, Jewishness does not." In fact, the pornography industry is controlled by consumers of pornography through the market place, which is 98% gentile.

While statistics and studies on the subject are not readily available, the Anti-Defamation League believes that the recitation of numbers and percentages is not the answer to the false charges of Jewish "control" of the sex industry, or, indeed, of similar accusations involving the media, banking, finance and other businesses. Reliance on statistics alone plays into the hands of anti-Semites. Generally, Jews involve themselves in non-religious and non-political activity as individuals, not as Jews. ADL takes the position that the number of Jews involved in a particular field bears no relationship to "Jewish power" or "Jewish control" of that industry. ADL does not accept the notion that Jews in any field act in concert with other Jews similarly situated simply because they happen to be Jewish. To believe otherwise is to accept a conspiracy theory that is the anti-Semites' stock-in-trade and relegates Jews to a kind of second-class citizenship.

In other words, American Jews have as much right as any other citizens of the United States to work in the pornography trade, in the banking industry, and in any other profitable businesses. Moreover, it bears repeating that those Jews who involve themselves in the sex industry do so as individuals, not as representatives of their religious group or with an aim to act in some coordinated conspiratorial manner.

The charge that "Jews control the production of pornography" is a classic example of the hatemonger?s paranoid-style exploitation of legitimate concerns ? in this case, the nation?s moral health. Moreover, the wide appeal of this anti-Semitic conspiracy theory among all kinds of extremists strikingly demonstrates how the agendas of otherwise opposing hate groups meet on common ground: the scapegoating of Jews.
