“The International Jew” Study Hour presents: Carolyn Yeager and Hadding Scott read and comment on Chapter 26:  “The Scope of Jewish Dictatorship in the U.S.”

How Bernard Baruch exercised power as the  “Jewish High Governor of the United States in war affairs” and how Jews got richer through his influence. At the beginning of the chapter we are told  that Baruch himself expressed that he ‘got into the war’ at Plattsburg and ‘out of the war’ when the Paris Peace Conference ended. What was Plattsburg? At the outbreak of war in Europe in 1914, some “elite” super-patriots, including Teddy Roosevelt and Elihu Root, instigated what was called the Preparedness Movement, to set up military training camps for civilians. Several organizations sponsored marches and demonstrations in major cities.  Training camps were operated in Plattsburg, N.Y. in 1915 and 1916 serving 40,000 men mostly from elite social classes. These men were destined to become officers.

Pictured at right is the July 22, 1916 parade in San Francisco protesting Woodrow Wilson’s policy to not prepare for war.  A bomb exploded during this parade, killing 10 and injuring many more. The motive was to work up war hysteria. What part did Jews play in this?

Correction: At the 17min to 17:09 mark, the number of men trained should be 400,000, not 4,000 as said by Carolyn.
