(Dr. David Makow, at 96)

HenryMakow.com – June 14, 2025

Today is Father’s Day

After my father wouldn’t let my mother feed me as a baby, except at meal times, the die was cast. We could never be friends because my crying had made me his adversary for life. Only after he died did I realize I still  loved him. But it was too late.

( DISCLAIMER – This is not so much a eulogy to my father as an epitaph to our relationship. It’s more about me than him.)

Everyone is fixated on the slugfeat in the Middle East, but June 15 is Father’s Day. Let’s not forget to honor our fathers. The destruction of Fatherhood is central the Illuminati subversion of civilization.

I am not the world’s greatest father and I didn’t expect my father to be perfect either.

A Polish Jew, he overcame many obstacles. His parents were murdered by the Nazis when he was 19. He survived the war by pretending to be a Gentile, did four years of high school in one, entered the MIT of Europe at the top of the entrance exam, became a physicist, and built a new life in Canada.

FATHER OR FRIEND?
