The Great Quotes thread

[Bill Ryan]

Deceit indeed is but a measure of the smallness of mind of him who employs it, and simply shows that his intelligence is too meagrely equipped to enable him to arrive at his ends by just and reasonable methods.

No doubt the art of lying has been practised with success in diplomacy; but unlike that honesty which here as elsewhere is the best policy, a lie always leaves a drop of poison behind, and even the most dazzling diplomatic success gained by dishonesty stands on an insecure foundation, for it awakes in the defeated party a sense of aggravation, a desire for vengeance, and a hatred which must always be a menace to his foe.

François de Callières, French diplomat, 1716

Michael Cohen is an attorney who testified against Trump in the New York trial

Yes, I am aware that Cohen was Trumps attorney and turned against him. I meant to say, I was not aware of Cohen's writing and speaking style.

I searched his X/Twitter account and there is no such quote there. The closest thing I found to the one you posted is this:


https://twitter.com/MichaelCohen212/...07766945472512

He is lambasting someone else for having a conspiracy theory about Ashkenazi Jews, not propagating such theories himself.

Looking through his other Twitter posts, it is indeed clear that he is indeed a lawyer, because he chooses his words very, very carefully. No matter how dark his heart or how crazy his ideas about race are, there is no way he would ever post a quote like this.

there are a number of sources, including witnesses, that have affirmed Netanyahu's "famous" statement at Finks Bar.

Can any of these witnesses be named? Have any of them told there stories? If Netanyahu actually said these words in a public place like Fink's Bar, it would have been an extraordinary moment and there would be interviews with the people who heard it. Can you point us to some?

I put part of quote into a search engine and there are numerous pages debunking this quote including Snopes. Snopes, or course, is a propaganda site, but their research is usually accurate, and posting quotes like this just gives them more ammo to be right.

The quote traces back to Gordon Duff in 2015, who openly admits that 30% of the "information" on his Veterans Today site is fake news. For more on Gordon Duff's garbage news site, see this Avalon thread: Veterans Today has jumped the shark.

They saw it coming. These are also attributed to Jefferson:

“To compel a man to furnish funds for the propagation of ideas he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.”

“I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.”

I will message you a link to a video that I'm uncomfortable posting on this thread which includes the statement made by Netanyahu at Finks Bar around the 11:50ish mark. I watched a video well over a year ago which included in part an interview with someone who was sitting at a table close to Netanyahu when he made this statement. It was a apparently a private conversation with Mossad agents at the table but it was overhead by others. The interviewee at the time said that Netanyahu was with Mossad agents. I don't doubt that sites like Bing and Yahoo have refuted this which is to be expected. I am trying to remember the video I watched with the interview but, so far, I can't find it - its been well over a year since I've seen it but if I come across it again, I'll send it to you. This "quote" has popped up in a number of places.

Yes, I can see why you probably would not want to post that video. It does have a screen shot of the quote:



Perhaps a screenshot of a quote might be a bit more convincing, but it's hard to figure out who even made the video, other than the host who appears at the beginning and end. From watching a few clips at the beginning and the end, it is pretty clear that the only purpose of this video is to generate race hatred. The intro page says it is "A must watch for Every White Man and Woman !" and the final conclusion of the film animate a gold star and place it on an image of Klaus Schwab (Schwab is verifiably of Lutheran and Catholic descent, and his parents lineage would have been vetted by the Nazis) The host then writhes his head and contorts his face as he says: "All those stinking, mentally ill, depraved Jews from Poland and Russia and Ukraine and ... they run the world now ... they run the world now ... what were you doing."

People who's main focus is fomenting extreme racial, religious and ethnic hatred, in my experience, have the very lowest threshold of concern for factual truth. They have no interest in making you smarter but instead are just trying to increase the amount of hate you harbor. That screen shot of the quote makes the quote seem even more suspect when you see people like this spreading the information.

I don't know who Gordon Duff is and have never visited his site.

Well, as of this point, he seems to be the originator of this quote in 2015. Unless there some other documented evidence of people discussing it before that time.

Just got sent the the twitter link of Feb. 3: https://twitter.com/gentilenewsnet/s...Vc64hvTG_ooKYc

That Twitter account is from "Gentile News Network". The image below shows a post by a Michael Cohen to a "THE SEERS" account. Not sure the photo of the Michael Cohen here is the same as that as the attorney of Donald Trump. It is a common enough name. Even if it is, it is not a retweet from Michael Dean Cohen, since this is an image of a post (and not a twitter post). It could come from another social media site, or it could be completely fake. Anything authentically posted on Twitter by Michael Dean Cohen would say "@MichaelCohen212".

As I mentioned in the post you responded to, this is not a thread where this "discussion" should be taking place and I am very uncomfortable continuing it here which is why I messaged you in the first place. However, I will give a "surface" response to your comments.

Well, the Cohen post clearly has a twitter link so one could safely assume it IS from a twitter account. I had assumed it was from the attorney Michael Cohen as the comments that were shared with the post had some stating it was from the attorney Cohen. When the link was forwarded to me, I saw that the original post did not come from a Cohen account so I stand corrected on this.

As for the video, it is clear that you haven't watched this and just cherry picked a couple of sentences that fit with the conclusion you want to present. The producer of this well researched video is Alexander Life, PhD, Psychologist, Historian and Author. The "hate" in this 3 part series (in this one video) is indeed very disturbing and graphic on both sides but also revealing and is really about a select group of people, not a race, who want to create a new religion/belief system and are the architects behind the intent, laying the foundation for global domination (the Khazarian Mafia). It is a stark, no holds barred documentary and it is indeed an uncomfortable watch but does give, I think, a good historical backdrop to current events. It went sort of viral and received a good bit of feedback. It seems to have since been shadow banned and Life himself appears to have been erased from the internet, or so far as I can tell as a tech dinosaur. When the videos first came out there was a good bit of accessible bio/info on this guy which, from what I can see, has now disappeared. For me, it was a once only viewing - it is hard to watch/hear much of the content but it does connect a lot of dots.

As for the Netanyahu quote, I still have a vague memory of a video containing a brief interview with someone who was in the bar at the same time this all went down. It is not surprising to me that all these "fact checkers" are now stating its false info. But there are also a number of spots where it has been posted and maybe there is even a place on another web browser. I am definitely on the fence with this one.

I will be erasing my comments soon as it is not meant for this forum thread and I will not be responding to any more post on this matter. Thank you.

"Michael Angelo and I may be considered extravagant, but as for me, if you simply mention art, I cannot be calm. I can go down on my knees before one of those decayed and venerable old masters that you have to put a sign on to tell which side of it you are looking at, and I do not want any bread, I do not want any meat, I do not want any air to breathe—I can live, in the tone and the feeling of it. Expression—expression is the thing—in art. I do not care what it expresses, and I cannot most always sometimes tell, generally, but expression is what I worship, it is what I glory in, with all my impetuous nature."

"And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them."

The diamond that is Bollyn's book is even more relevant than ever. The same grubby pawprints that were all over 9/11 and convid are the same grubby pawprints now trying to ignite WW3!

“Truth is not knowable, it transcends knowing. It is beyond the ability of mind to analyze, to figure out, to dissect, or to comprehend.” -Papaji

[Tintin]

“There are others who seem to live in a most curious condition of consciousness, as if the state they had arrived at today were final, with no possibility of change, or as if the world and the psyche were static and would remain so forever. They seemed devoid of all imagination, and they entirely and exclusively depended upon their sense-perception. Chances and possibilities did not exist in their world, and in ‘today’ there was no real ‘tomorrow.’ The future was just the repetition of the past.”

— C.G. Jung
