Guardian correspondent J.A. Hobson describes the lies, deception, underhanded maneuverings, false propaganda-and the Jewish lobby-which lay behind the outbreak of the Second Anglo-Boer War in 1889. Faked "atrocity" propaganda, faked incidents of "Boer barbarity" and faked stories of "Boer weapons build-ups" were fed into major English newspapers to incite the public into a war against a nation which posed no threat to Britain. Hobson also reveals the true source behind the incitement to war: the powerful Jewish lobby in South Africa, who he called the "Jew-Imperialists." This Jewish lobby owned the mineral and trading wealth in the Transvaal and wanted to ensure that the state's political masters were brought under control to ensure a steady cheap supply of black-and white-labor to toil in the dark mines. Now with a new introduction "South Africa 1899, Iraq 2003: The Awful Parallels" by Arthur Kemp which details the Jewish lobby's role in inciting the Iraq War, following the pattern laid down in 1899.
