A Must Read !!!
First, I'd like to personally thank Dr Welsing for the courage to say and construct an outline in symbolism on racial dynamics.I would also like to say that the truth "does set you free",however if one is limited and narrow in his or her thinking the reaction can be quite mortal,to say the least. There is so much-much more that needs to be said about these issues, I just hope the next generation takes advantage of the foundation Dr Welsing has provided.Oh yeah,anybody that disagrees with the good Doctress please do so in a civil and scholarly manner-RESPECT!!!

The truth be told
It has been one of my greatest satisfactions to have met Sister Welsing and to have read this riveting book which has proven to me that I and my people are the GREATEST! and that to think otherwise is to deny oneself that greatness.For many people who have the insight and the willingness to read the book it cannot help but to open the eyes of those still sleeping in their superficial superiority. This will also if the readers are willing to accept the unmitigating truth possibly awaken RIP VAN WINKLE from the stone age.

empowering
Having grown up in a racist South Africa, we were made to belive that we are nothing and even pigs were treated better than us.This book empowered and reinforced in me the notion that it is only the ignorant who see black people as inferior and it is manily their insecurity that makes them so racist. This book is not about reinforcing racism, but rather about empowering the oppressed to know themselves much better. And most importantly help them cope with the pain of oppression.Frances openned my eyes to the most obvious and she must write more books of this kind. This is only the beggining of helping us the oppressed to look our fears in the eye by understanding the psychology of oppression.

The truth hurts some people.
The author is thoughtful and very powerful. She takes on white supremacy by it's horns, chops it to pieces and has it for breakfast.

This explains why some people get so upset over this book. All I can say to them is now you see how it feels to have your existence, history, and thought patterns analyzed in an unflattering way.

Keep up the good work Frances. Your work is desperately needed to counter the Shockleys, Dukes, Turner Diaries, etc of this world.

Stop passing judgement, "A Reader" from Planet Earth
I am only writing this commentary because I was truly sickend by the comments that "A Reader" made towards the book, "The Isis Papers". Though you have every right to your opinion about not liking the material of the book, I found it disheartening that you would put down a whole race of people. Being an African-American woman, I have experienced racism in all forms, from being called a "nigger" to being followed throughout stores to being judged as a purse snatcher as I walk by white woman. In fact, there was even a time when I was just admitted to a hospital and my roommates son came to visit her and with one look at me, he said to his mother, "Oh oh, you better put up your valuables before something ends up missing!" These experiences can take a toll on one's psyche because you find out that you are not looked as an individual but in fact as some "psychopath" with "low level intellect" who has a "profoundly sick and hideously flawed 'culture'". Your opinion about Black Americans proofs to me and others that this country has a long way to go with race relations.

Required reading to understand and eliminate White Supremacy
Dr.Welsing's work is brilliant! This book should serve as a compass to anyone attempting to better understand White Supremacy and its effect on the world. Global White Supremacy is the "number one" problem facing "hue-man" life since its inception (when the first caucasion came out of the Caucasus Mountains) to this very day! The Isis papers should be every "goy" or "hue-man" bible and required reading of every high school student in the world! For those who are not familiar with Global White Supremacy, it is harmonious with abuse, affirmative action (w/out white supremacy, affirmative action is not needed), chaos, confusion, (unnatural) death, discrimation, disease, evil, Hollywood and Media images, guns, homelessness, hunger, illness, manipulation, miseducation, Judeo-Christian religon, superiority (Caucasian Whites and Jews) and inferiorty (people of color in the world), police brutality, pollution, prisons and war (See U.S. & Isreali governments as major facilitators.)(just to name a few). Elimination of Global White Supremacy would be synonymous with truth, (true) justice, peace, wellness, understanding, fairness, life, equality in the distribution of land and resources, positive images of all people, (true) love and the true worship of the Creator. (just to name a few). I strongly recommend this author's work and other brilliant works by: Neely Fuller Jr's The United Independent Compensatory Code (White Supremacy; Nation of Islam's The Secret Relationship between Blacks and Jews; Prof.Tony Martin's Jewish Onslaught; Michael Bradley's Chosen people from the Caucasus and Iceman Inheritance; Tony Browder's Nile Valley Contributions to Civilation. Also any book by J.A.Rogers, Carter G.Woodson, Dr.Yosef ben-Jochannan, Chancellor Williams, John Henrik Clarke. (There are many other great authors. I did not mention them only because I have not read them yet, please forgive me!) This is a quote from Mr Fuller:"If you do not understand White Supremacy (Racism), what is and how it works, everything else that you understand will only confuse you." P.S. For another (basic) understanding, look up in the dictonary the word black, then look up the word white to see what meanings.

apply the logic - then you decide
One fact common to all colours and creed is that people will believe what they need to believe, and discard all else, regardless of the power of its truth. By this statement alone it may be a futile attempt to defend this book, as I will only be preaching to the converted, or the unconvertable. But the truth must always be defended.

For those who find Dr Cress-Wesling's theory of white genetic annhialation a little too well thought out, a little too extreme, a little frightening even. For those who doubt its legitimacy, its accuracy or its necessity. For those who just don't understand it or want some hard proof, a suggestion.

Simply take a look at all of the west's popular culture. In particular, its modern culture. Its hollywood blockbusters. It's cultural heroes. Its headline news. A close look with an inquiring eye will reveal a common thread. It is said that culture is to society what dreams are to the individual. It is where we process and play out are innermost fears and fantasies. The window of our psyche. Art does not enter into the popular culture through hype alone. There must be a common denominator that strikes a chord and alerts ones spirit. Dr Cress-Wesling theorises on what this chord is. She may be right, you may believe she is wrong, but the strength of any theory is in its application.

If nothing else, understand that this book is not produced out of hatred, on the contrary, a clear understanding of the motivations of mankind is in the interest of all humanity. Irrespective of creed or colour.

By the way, have you seen Star Wars?..............
