How Britain's Biggest<br />
Racists Created Zionism<br />
by Mark Burdman<br />
<strong>The</strong>re is one man who can properly be regarded as the<br />
father of Zionism and Nazism: Benjamin Disraeli.<br />
To omit Disraeli from a central place in the 19th century<br />
development of Zionism, agent historian Barbara<br />
Tuchman once said, "would be as absurd as to leave the<br />
ghost out of Hamlet." As prime minister under Victoria<br />
in the 1870s, Disraeli was the overseer of Britain's imperial<br />
design to secure a "homeland" for Jews as a British<br />
outpost in the Middle East, and a secret document<br />
authored by Disraeli became the manifesto for early<br />
Zionism in Europe. That much is admitted on the public<br />
record.<br />
What's hidden are Disraeli's motivations. In the 40<br />
novels he also authored, Disraeli called for an Aryan-<br />
Semitic alliance to form an organized superior "Caucasian<br />
race" that was destined to rule the world with British<br />
power and the Hebrew-centered "sacred mysteries of the<br />
East." This was the counter-cult to the rising demand for<br />
industrialization and progress throughout Europe, the<br />
United States, and the Arab world. As we shall show,<br />
Nazism and Zionism were the hideous twin offspring of<br />
the same Anglican racist mother.<br />
Disraeli himself was the son of an early British cultist,<br />
Isaac D'Israeli, a dilettantish figure and literary critic<br />
associated with circles around the Edinburgh Review and<br />
Sir Walter Scott. Nominally a Jew by name, Isaac<br />
D'Israeli was involved in the Isis cult worship of these<br />
circles and encouraged his son to study Jesuit teachings<br />
and explore other pagan anti-Christian teachings. <strong>The</strong><br />
Walter Scott clique was the originator of numerous<br />
myths and cults conduited into Europe, including the<br />
Odin cult in Germany that supplied a mythical history<br />
for Nazism.<br />
Early in his political literary career, Disraeli made two<br />
important connections. <strong>The</strong> first was to the up-andcoming<br />
Rothschild family. <strong>The</strong> most notable Hofjuden<br />
("Court Jew") family of Britain patronized Disraeli's<br />
activities and Disraeli wrote in a letter, "I have always<br />
been of the opinion that there cannot be too many<br />
Rothschilds."<br />
Secondly, he was introduced to Edward Bulwer-<br />
Lytton, an arch-priest of the Isis cult in Britain. Bulwer-<br />
Lytton was the author of the Last Days of Pompeii which<br />
promulgated the Isis cult and the novel Rienzi. <strong>The</strong> latter<br />
supplied the story for one of Wagner's first operas<br />
which became another manifesto of Nazism. Bulwer-<br />
Lytton and his son were both to serve as Colonial and India<br />
Office secretaries during the mid-nineteenth century.<br />
Bulwer-Lytton's novels became the seminal tracts for a<br />
whole variety of cults devoted to spreading the cult of<br />
Isis directly or in other guises. Those included the 1848<br />
creation of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, the 1860s<br />
