New in PJ Media:
“Israel is running the world, Israel is running the show.”
Superannuated guitar demiurge Eric Clapton made this shocking and counterintuitive revelation during a recent interview, and of course the has-been rock deity is by no means the first to say this. Claiming that the Jews secretly run the world has been a staple charge of Jew-haters since the publication of the infamous czarist forgery The Protocols of the Elders of Zion and before that, but it’s particularly bizarre and striking for Clapton to drag out this particular canard at this point, when the entire world is ganging up on Israel, its foremost ally has betrayed it, and all the international organs of “justice,” or what passes for justice these days, are intent upon preventing the tiny Jewish state from defending itself. If Israel is running the world these days, it’s doing an extremely poor job of it.
The Jerusalem Post reported Tuesday that Clapton, who has recently been playing a guitar emblazoned with the flag of “Palestine,” not only claimed that Israel is running the world, but also expressed enthusiasm for the sometimes violent pro-Hamas demonstrations that have been breaking out on college and university campuses all over. “I was so enthused about what was going on at Columbia [University] and elsewhere,” said the aged adolescent, and who wouldn’t have been enthused?
What has been happening at Columbia is enough to fill any hardened Jew-hater with enthusiasm. Outside agitators broke into and occupied Columbia’s Hamilton Hall, the main building on campus. Pro-Hamas protesters assaulted a Jewish student. University administrators allowed a student who spoke openly about killing Jews to remain on campus for months. Protesters on campus proclaimed “We are Hamas.” The situation got so bad for Jewish students that in late April, Rabbi Elie Buechler, co-director of the Orthodox Union’s Jewish Learning Initiative on Campus (JLIC) for Columbia University and Barnard College, told Jewish students on April 21 to go home and stay there until the campus environment improved to the extent that they weren’t physically threatened simply while walking to class.
Clapton evinced no concern whatsoever for the harassment and endangerment of Jewish students. He was only angry that some elected officials had had the temerity to call out several university presidents, including Columbia’s President Minouche Shafik. “And then what I couldn’t believe, because it freaked me out, were the Senate [sic; the hearings were in the House of Representatives] hearings, which were like the Nuremberg trials, you know?” he said.
There is more. Read the rest here.

I thought he’d discovered this the other day.
Better than muzzis running it.

“ Eric Clapton Discovers the Secret: Israel is Running the World”
So Clapton is really just another in a long line of heretics known as Gnostics. Anyone who has read about Gnosticism, going back to the early centuries of the Christian Era, knows that the Gnostics often descended into hatred of the Jews and of the Jewish Bible.
The underlying impulse behind Gnosticism (“gnosis” meaning knowledge) was that the believer has reached beyond mere appearances and gained some special, often esoteric knowledge. So, fundamentally, “I know THE TRUTH, hidden from the stupid masses” is their claim to salvation.
Gnosticism, wisely, was discarded by Christianity as a heresy in the early centuries.
My point is that Clapton, and his fellow imbecile Jew-hater Roger Waters, and all the Hamas-loving dunderheads polluting our campuses, are really just an incarnation of a very old type of Jew-hatred, namely the “I know the TRUTH, and the JEWS are in back of all the evil in the universe”.
Spideyweb1 says
He actually has the nerve to say this as his country has been occupied and colonized by Arabs and renamed LONDONISTAN!!? I’m sure he and Cat Steven’s will collaborate on a song celebrating the Islamic rape gangs all over England terrorizing young innocent British birds and never spoken about in proper English conversations… wake up Mr Clapton.. Muslims would never buy your CD’s or go to your concerts. You are considered to be Haram. Imagine that!! But millions of hippie Jews supported you and bought your albums back in the day and still do today. After Muslims put their prayer rugs away.. I’m sure your songs are what they’re listening to while sipping a nice cold one. You Rock stars have dropped too much LSD to think rationally. “Got me on my knees Layla!”
Ron says
Stay in your lane Eric! Guitars only.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Think he’s past that
truth says
He should do a concert for Hamas see how that goes.
Blougeoisie says
Which is he made money off of his dead kid. Making money off of dead Arabs too.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
The Astrazeneca shot has permanently damaged his brain as well, not just his physiology
Ceecee says
I’m so sorry to hear this. I knew Roger Waters was an asshole. But I didn’t know Eric Clapton was too.
Ron says
I’d like to pose a question here,,,,, what effect(s) has media propaganda had on this whole situation. How many folks have been steered far from truth due to agenda driven propaganda?
Henry says
Well, stoopidly vaccinated, therefore psychologicly altered,in a negative sense, ergo pro Hamas.
Plus too much LSD in the Cream – years. = pro Hamas.
gravenimage says
Henry, I have been vaccinated and am not pro-Hamas–*far from it*.
One can argue about whether vaccines against disease are a good idea or not, but the claim that they make you pro-Jihad is mistaken. I imagine that many of us here at Jihad Watch have received some vaccines.

Eric Clapton Discovers the Secret: Israel is Running the World
………………………………………….
Just grotesque. Eric Clapton is a good singer and a fine guitar player, but a moral idiot.
I just wish he were the only one…
James Lincoln says
So, Eric may as well team up with bassist Roger Waters.
Then, all they would need to do is find an anti-Semitic drummer…
Chris says
Clapton quit the booze n drugs, but what for?
James Lincoln says
And he can’t blame his most recent Jew hatred remarks on drugs and alcohol, Chris
