• Note on Jews, Christianity, and Moslems.

Based on the idea that Jews created Christianity, and went on later to construct Islam, it seems clear enough that Jews played a larger part in world history that seemed plausible to 19th century 'thinkers'. Jewish manipulations are slowly becoming clearer. It's now known that Jews not only invented Christianity, but collaborated with some local people in communities around the Mediterranean. (I'm not talking about original, primitive, endogenous Christianity, because little knowledge has survived crushing censorhip.

Co-operation between Jews and Moslems to open up cities in Spain for theft and probably rape and plunder has left a permanent mark on Spaniards. If we count Moslems racially as Arabs, their territory extended over all north Africa. Modern Spaniards regard Palestinians as Arabs, and have no sympathy for either Palestinians or Jews. Jewish censorship in Britain of course never allows discussion of Jewish and Moslem hostility to Britain. But perhaps this will change.

The more-or-less official view is that Moslems took over Spain for about 700 years, whereupon the Christians under Ferdinand and Isabella exerted themselves hugely and reconquered their country, incidentally expelling both Jews and Moslems and using the Inquisition to pry out secrets. Victorian England had a clear simple view of the Inquisition, as, more or less, cruel and unjustified. And of Spain as having declined because they expelled these 'industrious' peoples. (Seriously!)

Understanding of Jewish methods and Jewish propaganda lies has enlarged. Many people by now have had their awareness expanded enormously. Maybe some reconsideration will be given, in Britain, to Portugal, which is regarded as England's oldest ally, though this may only mean Jews in Britain collaborated with Jews in Portugal. An online person said Samuel Pepys said 'synagogue' was more or less synonymous with Portuguese, though I couldn't find his source.

The biggest influence was probably the voyages of exploration by Portuguese and Spanish (and other) explorers. It became obvious, and this clarity was inflamed by curiosity and avarice, that there were huge areas outside the traditional axis of the Mediterranean across to China. And it seemed likely that there were many people out there, who were not technically advanced or armed with iron or steel or metal. Traditionally, the Pope is said to have allocated north America northern Europe and southern America to Spain (north - mostly Mexico) and Portugal (south - mostly Brazil).
But it's likely Jews were involved, controlling Roman Catholicism in south America as it controlled Protestantism in north America. Portugal (and Spain) bore the same relationship to the Atlantic as Venice (and other places) bore to the Mediterranean. Understanding the pushes and pulls of exploration needs awareness of Jews.
All this led to race-mixing; Hexzane527 suggests North American Indians were race-mixed with blacks, and moved to Brazil and other parts of south America. He cites John Norris' book Profitable Advice for Rich and Poor (1712), in which 'it is recommended to buy eighteen native women, about fifteen African men and three African women'. [Hexzane's file is the very long page 2019-02-12-what-is-real-jewish-project. Norris's book does not seem to be available for downloading from archive.org. But modern reprints are available. It seems to be true that American Indians sold other Indians into slavery, as black Africans did.]
Brandon Martinez points out that 'Hispanics' include race-mixed people such as Mexicans with Spaniards.
Western Europe was the likeliest way to get west by shipping; the Netherlands had ports, and a river delta in western Europe. The Baltic was encouraging, but further from the west. Spain and Portugal had fewer ports and rivers than Britain, with the Pyrenees cutting off France. And probably Moslem shipping was likely to prove erratic and inefficient. At any rate, there may have been competition and contest. Probably Islam was handicapped by Islamic habits.

Just as with Christianity, the successful 'religious' types in Islam must have preferred the obvious benefits that violence can bring over honest toil. At some point, Jews must have decided to back Christians. This of course is utterly unlike the traditional story of bitter hatred; but of course there is plenty of evidence that Jews colluded with Christians when it suited them. Probably the amalgamation of the parts of Spain into a single kingdom, and the continued separation of Portugal, served a Jewish purpose just as unifications of Italy, Germany, and Japan suited Jews. And probably the rivalry between England and Spain was fomented by Jews; it's what they do.

Jews owned pirate ships in the Caribbean. (Jews forced miscegenation on the Portuguese; and I believe the Portuguese aristocracy was forced into marriage with Jews). There must have been intricate dealings in arranging Roman Catholicism in Spain and arranging them to collect treasure from South America, and also occasionally capture them. They also angled for the Reformation, rather than keep shovelling rents and payments to Rome. This meant English parsons were richer but greedier—or so my notes say; I'm not sure what I meant.

I hope the Moslem and Christian educated worlds may understand each other better by examining their secret common Jewish 'heritage'. For example, Yemen many years ago reputedly was strong and civilised. What happened may be analogous to Christian civilisational failure after the Roman Empire—and perhaps during it. I expect many people regard Moslems at Vienna and in south-east Europe as a secret force run by Jews.

Anyway... it's 2 a.m. and I lost my copy of this from my computer. This'll have to do pro tem.

Map of this interesting area. The red marker is the Dutch island of Curaçao, which has a synagogue 'opened 1674' in the town of Willemsberg. Jamaica was the site of Port Royal; both these islands were noted for piracy, alcohol, and brothels. The sea is hemmed in by islands, and apparently relatively easy sailing as a result: it's like a submerged Mediterranean.
On Port Royal and Jewish piracy, see Colleague of Mathis on Jewish Pirates.

I'd like to add a comment on the English-speaking, Spanish-speaking, and Portuguese-speaking Atlantic-Ocean-based worlds. There was a natural geographical and language separation between England and Spain, and (presumably less so) between Spain and Portugal. But the degree of isolation must have been controlled to some extent by Jews. We would expect that when Jewish interests or plans favour closeness, co-operation would increase, and when the opposite applies, we would find hostility. For centuries there was hostility. This started to decline (I think) by the 1900s: Bertrand Russell wrote of George Santayana, who taught philosophy at Harvard, and whose father, by the way, was the Governor of Manila in the Philippines, that his air of detachment disappeared whenever his Spanish patriotism was involved. As it was in the Spanish-American War of 1898, started with a false flag operation, as is now obvious. Russell says nothing about the aims of that war; probably Santayana didn't either. 'Santayana's merits are literary rather than philosophical.' He wasn't really a philosopher at all, any more than Iris Murdoch was later in England; US philosophy is a studied evasion of anything important. Just as Victorian philosophy in England was.
