Since the protocols
have definitely been followed or emulated, most notably by Nazis and
Communists; it's time to understand and study
what that plan is. A century after
their publication in 1905, history offers an answer as to
the price of not knowing the most concise and frank
blueprint for fascism. From control of the press to economic
wars, knowing the plan's details helps you identify
who is
using it, because the methodology remains the same.
"The
class of people who most willingly enter into
secret societies are those who live by their wits, careerists, and
in general people, mostly light-minded, with whom we shall have
no difficulty in dealing and in using to wind up the mechanism
of the machine devised by us. The goyim enter the lodges
out of curiosity or in the hope by their means to get a
nibble at the public pie, and some of them in order to
obtain a hearing before the public for their
impracticable and groundless fantasies: they thirst for
the emotion of success and applause, of which we are
remarkably generous. And the reason why we give them this success is to
make use of the high conceit of themselves to which it gives
birth, for that insensibly disposes them to assimilate our
suggestions without being on their guard against them...
"Far back in ancient times we
were the first to cry among the masses of the people the
words "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity," words many times
repeated since those days, by stupid poll-parrots
who...flew down upon these baits, and with them carried
away the well-being of the world... The would-be wise men of
the goyim, the intellectuals, couldn't make anything out of the uttered
words in their abstractness... did not see that in nature there is no
equality, cannot be freedom; that Nature herself has established
inequality of minds, of characters, and capacities.... never stopped to think
that the mob is a blind thing, that upstarts elected from among it to
bear rule are, in regard to the political, the same blind men as the mob
itself...
"Political freedom
is an idea but not a fact. This idea one must know
how to apply whenever it appears necessary with this
bait of an idea to attract the masses of the people to
one's party for the purpose of crushing another who is
in authority. This task is rendered easier if
the opponent has himself been infected with the idea of
freedom, so-called liberalism, and, for the sake of an
idea, is willing to yield some of his power. "
"Who and what
is in a position to overthrow an invisible force? And
this is precisely what our force is.
Gentile masonry blindly serves as a screen for us
and our objects, but the plan of action of our force,
even its very abiding place, remains for the whole
people an unknown mystery. "

The Hobbyhorse of Symbolic
Collectivism
"We
have set them on the hobby-horse of an idea about
the absorption of individuality by the symbolic unit
of collectivism. They...never
will have the sense to reflect that this hobby horse
is a manifest violation of the most important law of
nature, which has established from the very creation
of the world one unit unlike another and precisely
for the purpose of instituting individuality."

The PROTOCOLS of The LEARNED
ELDERS OF ZION
Debate regarding the authorship of this
document may be designed to ignore the obvious: it
was written not by Jews, but by high-level freemasons and that which is being discussed
is, irrefutably, Pike and Mazzini's New World Order. All of the critical protocols are now a reality
or came to pass: For example...
Translated from the Russian of
Sergyei A. Nilus by VICTOR E. MARSDEN
The Protocols of the Learned Elders of
Zion has become a best seller among political books published this
century. Having been translated into every language since it was first
brought to light in 1919 and having reached over a million sales in the
English edition alone, this remarkable set of documents is in greater
demand than ever today. The years have shown that every great world
event has followed the course laid down by the secret authors of this
book. Wars, slumps, revolutions, the rise in the cost of living
and chronic unrest are all foretold as leading to the ultimate goal of
World Conquest through the "back-door" means of first establishing World
Government "by consent." The thoughtful reader must reject the view,
once held by some people, that the Protocols originated as an
imaginative work of miraculous accuracy. The only rational view
seems to be that the Protocols must be taken on their face value as a
detailed plan of action, aiming at nothing other than the goal they
themselves set forth. This goal is a World State which the nations
are being urged by their leaders to accept as "the only alternative to
annihilation." This is the choice which our politicians are
offering us today. The eighty-first impression of the Marsden
translation was presented under the new title World Conquest through
World Government because the publishers believed that the ultimate
conquest foretold in this terrible plan is nearing its final stages.

INTRODUCTION
The Protocols of the Learned
Elders of ZION may be briefly described as a blueprint for the
domination of the world by a secret brotherhood. Whatever
may be the truth about their authorship - and, as will be shown,
this has been the subject of bitter dispute - there can be no
doubt that the world society to which they look forward is
nothing more or less that a world police state. The book is
which the Protocols were first embodied was published by
Professor Sergyei A. Nilus in Russia in 1905, a copy being
received in the British Museum on August 10th, 1906, Professor
Nilus's concern was to expose that he believed to be a ruthless,
cold-blooded conspiracy for the destruction of Christian
CIVILIZATION. Early, in August and September of 1903, the
Russian newspaper SNAMIA had published the Protocols, and they
are also believed to have been published in the winter of
1902/1903 in the newspaper MOSKOWSKIJA WIEDOMOSTI. They
remained unknown outside Russia, however, until after the
Bolshevik Revolution, when Russian emigrants brought Nilus's
book to North America and Germany. The similarity between what
was forecast in the Protocols and the fate which had befallen
Russia under the Bolsheviks was so marked that, after these long
years of neglect, they rapidly became one of the most famous (or
notorious) documents in the world. In Bolshevik Russia, the
penalty for their mere possession was death. It remains so
to this day, both in the Soviet Union and in the Satellite
countries. Outside the Iron Curtain, in South Africa
possession of the Protocols is also forbidden by law, although
the penalty is less drastic. As a result of their rapidly
growing fame, numerous attempts were made to discredit the
Protocols as a forgery. But it was not until 1933 that the
JEWS resorted to legal action. On 26th June, 1933, the
FEDERATION of JEWISH COMMUNITY brought an action against five
members of the Swiss National Front, seeking a judgment that the
Protocols were a forgery and a prohibition of their publication.
The procedure of the Court was astounding, the provisions of the
Swiss Civil Code being deliberately set aside. Sixteen
witnesses called by the plaintiffs were heard, but only one of
the forty witnesses called by the defendants was allowed a
hearing. The judge allowed the plaintiffs to appoint two
private stenographers to keep the register of proceedings during
the hearing of their witnesses, instead of entrusting the task
to a Court official. In view of these and similar
irregularities, it was not surprising that, after the case had
lasted just on two years, the Court pronounced the Protocols to
be a forgery and demoralizing literature. The decision was
given on 14th May, 1935, but it was announced in the JEWISH
PRESS before it was delivered by the Court!
On 1st November, 1937, the Swiss
Court of Criminal Appeal quashed this judgment in its entirety.
JEWISH PROPAGANDISTS, however, still declare that the Protocols
have been "proved" to be a forgery. It is natural that the JEWS
should try to discredit the Protocols, for their growing fame
was focusing more public attention on other revealing
utterances. In Disraeli's THE LIFE OF LORD GEORGE BENTINCK,
written in 1852, there occurs this quotation:
"The influence of the JEWS
may be traced in the last outbreak of the destructive
principle in Europe. An insurrection takes place
against tradition and aristocracy, against religion and
property. Destruction of the Semitic principles,
extirpation of the JEWISH RELIGION, whether in the Mosaic or
the CHRISTIAN form the natural equality of men and the
abrogation of property are proclaimed by the Secret
Societies which form Provisional Governments and men of the
JEWISH RACE are found at the head of every one of them.
The people of God cooperate with atheists; the most skillful
accumulators of property ally themselves with Communists;
the peculiar and chosen Race touch the hand of all the scum
and low castes of Europe; and all this because they wish to
destroy that ungrateful Christendom which owes to them its
name, and whose tyranny they can no longer endure. "
Max Norday, a JEW, speaking at
the ZIONIST CONGRESS at Basel in August 1903, made this
astonishing "prophecy":
"Let me tell you the
following words as if I were shoeing you the rungs of
a ladder leading upward and upward: Herzl, the ZIONIST
CONGRESS, the English Uganda proposition, the future world
war, the peace conference, where with the help of England a
free and JEWISH PALESTINE will be created."
Walter
Rathenau, the JEWISH BANKER behind the Kaiser, writing in the
German WIENER FREIE PRESSE, December 24, 1912, said:
"Three hundred men, each of
who knows all the others, govern the fate of the European
continent, and they elect their successor from their
entourage."
Confirmation of Rathenau's
statement came twenty years later in 1931 when Jean Izoulet, a
prominent member of the JEWISH ALLIANCE ISRAELITE UNIVERSELLE,
wrote in his PARIS LA CAPITALAE DES RELIGIONS:
"The meaning of the history
of the last century is that today 300 JEWISH FINANCIER, all
Masters of Lodges, rule the world."
The LONDON JEWISH CHRONICLE, on
April 4th, 1919, declared:
"There is much in the fact of
Bolshevism itself, in the fact that so many JEWS are
BOLSHEVISTS, in the fact that the ideals of Bolshevism at
many points are consonant with the finest ideals of
Judaism." and on March 15th, 1923, the JEWISH WORLD
asserted: "Fundamentally JUDAISM is ANTI-CHRISTIAN."
These and many similar assertions
from JEWISH sources were damaging enough from the JEWISH
point of view. Taken in conjunction with the Protocols,
with which more and more people were becoming familiar, they
were damning. The attitude of many people whose concern over the
growing attack on CHRISTIAN CIVILIZATION was rapidly increasing
was summed up by the late Henry Ford senior, the founder of the
world-famous motor manufacturing company. In an interview
published in the New York World on February 17th, 1921, Mr.
Ford declared:
"The only statement I care to
make about the Protocols is that they fit in with what is
going on. They are sixteen years old, and have fitted
the world situation up to this time. THEY FIT IT NOW."
Those who, like Henry Ford, could
see that "they fit it now" only sixteen years after Nilus's
first publication of the Protocols, naturally tended to
concentrate their attention on the relatively recent phenomenon
of Bolshevism. Few of them the understood the equally
dangerous, if more insidious, danger of internationalism. Now,
however, more than half a century after Nilus's publication of
the Protocols, the reality of that danger must be crystal clear
to anybody who views the world situation objectively. The
Protocols are full of references to a "Super Government,"
PROTOCOL VI, for example, states:
"In every possible way we
must develop the significance of our Super-Government by
representing it as the Protector and Benefactor of all those
who voluntarily submit to us."
That is exactly the way in which
the United Nations special agencies - UNESCO (U.N.
Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization); ILO
(International Labour Organization); WHO (World Health
Organization); FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization);
Commission of Human Rights; Genocide Convention, etc. -
are represented. For some years there has been in existence an
international organization calling itself the World Association
of Parliamentarians for World Government, which pursues the same
objective as that of another long-established international
organization, Federal Union. This body does not disuse the
fact that the United Nations, by means of a few relatively minor
changes in its Charter, could be transformed virtually over
night into a World Government. There has long been agitation for
the creation of a World Police Force. This would enable
the United Nations Super-Government to function as a master of
an all-powerful World Police State, and the closing years of the
1950's have seen the agitators for a World Police Force come
close to achieving their objective. The U.N.
Emergency Force, established after the Suez crisis of 1956, has
been openly regarded as a "pilot scheme."
Should the few changes in the
Charter necessary to transform the U.N. into a
Super-Government be made, it will have in the special agencies
ready made Ministries of Education (or Propaganda), Labor,
Health, Food and Agriculture, "Justice", etc. Can it be an
accident that these things are so accurately for-shadowed in the
Protocols? The full-scale World Super-Government is not the
only, nor perhaps the most immediate, danger. It is
obvious to everyone that the nations of the East are being
herded into subjection under the dominance of the Soviet Union.
But what of the nations of the
West? Are they really the "free nations" which they are
popularly supposed to be? Far from it! They are being herded
into that same sort of pen as are the nations of the East under
Communism. Late in 1957, the process had gone for enough
to be given an official name. That name was the policy of
inter-dependence." The nations of the West are being brought
under international control at political, military and economic
levels. They are rapidly in process of becoming controlled
also on the social level. All alike are being told that
their only hope lies in the surrender of national sovereignty.
National Parliaments must give way to such bodies as the Council
of Europe or the Atlantic Council. National Forces must be
submerged in such bodies as the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization (NATO), the Baghdad Pact or the South-East Treaty
Organization (SEATO), so that no nation has control over its own
means of defense. National economies must be submerged in
such bodies as the Organization for European Economic
Cooperation (OEEC), the European Payments Union (EPU) or the
World Bank, so that no nation may control its own economic
destiny. Even on the social level, individual national
distinctions must disappear. For example, under the
"Common Market" Treaty which unites six European nations on the
economic plane, provision is made for the "equalization of
social policies." And strenuous efforts have been made to
herd other European nations, Great Britain among them, into this
same pen in the associated European Free Trade Area. In 1934,
when the leader of the British Labor Party (Mr. Clement
Attlee) told the party's annual conference:
"We are deliberately putting
loyalty to a world order above loyalty to our own country," he
was widely execrated. Twenty-three years of propaganda, however,
leave their mark, and when, in 1957, a Conservative Prime
Minister of Britain told the British people that they must
surrender some of their national sovereignty to an unknown
international cabal, scarcely a voice was raise in protest.
At the close of 1957 there was an official declaration of the
British Government's support for the plan which was foreshadowed
in the Protocols over sixty years ago. The Earl of
Gosford, Joint Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs,
said in the House of Lords on 7th November, 1957:
"Her Majesty's Government are
fully in agreement with World Government. We agree
that this must be the goal, and that every step that is
humanly possible must be taken to reach that goal."
All over the world "federation",
"integration", "regionalization" and "inter-dependence" are the
order of the day. All this is foreshadowed in the
Protocols, published more than half-a-century ago by Sergyei
Nilus, which, we are told are forgery. Can this be coincidence?
Could any forger be so prescient? Or are the Protocols what
Nilus and many others believed them to be - the blueprint for a
conspiracy to destroy CHRISTIAN CIVILIZATION and place the whole
world under the domination of a small, secret cabal?
NOTES
I - "AGENTURE" and "THE
POLITICAL" There are two words in this translation which are
unusual, the words "Agentur" and "political" used as
substantives. "Agentur" appears to be adopted from the
original test and it means the whole body of agents and
agencies directed by the Elders, whether members of the
tribe or their GENTILE tools. By "the Political" is meant
not exactly the "body politic" but the entire machinery of
politics.
II - The Symbolic Snake of
Judaism Chapter III opens with a reference to the symbolic
Snake of Judaism. In his Epilogue to the 1905 Edition
of the Protocols Nilus gives the following interesting
account of this symbol: According to the records of secret
JEWISH ZIONISM, Solomon and other JEWISH learned men had
already, in 929 B.C., thought out a theoretical scheme for
the peaceful conquest of the whole universe by ZION. As
history developed, this scheme was worked out in detail and
completed by men who were subsequently initiated in this
question. The learned men decided by peaceful means to
conquer the world for ZION with the slyness of the Symbolic
Snake, whose head was to represent those who have been
initiated into the plans of the JEWISH PEOPLE - the
administration was always kept secret, even from the JEWISH
NATION itself. As this Snake penetrated into the
hearts of the nations which it encountered it undermined and
devoured all the NON-JEWISH power of these States. It
is foretold that the Snake has sill to finish its work,
strictly adhering to the designed plan, until the course
which it has to run is closed by the return of its head to
ZION and until, by this means, the Snake has completed its
round of Europe and has encircled it - and until, by dint of
enchaining Europe, it has encompassed the whole world.
This it is to accomplish by using every endeavor to subdue
the other countries by an economic conquest. The return of
the head of the Snake to ZION can only be accomplished after
the power of all the Sovereigns of Europe has been laid low,
that is to say, when by means of economic crises and
wholesale destruction effected everywhere, there shall have
been brought about a spiritual demoralization and a moral
corruption, chiefly with the assistance of JEWISH WOMEN
masquerading as French, Italians, etc. These are the
surest spreader of licentiousness into the lives of the
leading men at the heads of nations. A map of the course of
the Symbolic Snake is shown as follows: Its first stage in
Europe was in 429 B.C. in Greece, where, about the
time of Pericles, the Snake first started eating into the
power of that country. The second stage was in Rome in
the time of Augustus, about 69 B.C. The third in
Madrid in the times of Charles V, in A.D. 1552.
The fourth in Paris about 1790, in the time of Louis XVI.
The fifth in London from 1814 onwards (after the downfall of
Napoleon). The sixth in Berlin in 1871 after the
Franco-Prussian war. The seventh in St.
Petersburg, over which is drawn the head of the Snake under
the date 1881.After these states which the Snake traversed
have had the foundations of their constitutions shaken,
Germany, with its apparent power, forming no exception to
the rule. In economic conditions England and Germany
are spared by the Snake, on which at present [i.e., 1905]
all its efforts are concentrated. The future course of
the Snake is not shown on this map, but arrows indicate its
next movement towards Moscow, Kiev, and Odessa.It is now
well know to us to what extent the latter cities form the
centers of the militant JEWISH RACE. Constantinople is
shown as the last of the Snake's course before it reaches
Jerusalem. III - The term "Goyim"Meaning
GENTILES or NON-JEW, is used throughout the Protocols and is
retained by Mr. Marsden.
The Protocols
In 1884 the daughter of a
Russian general, Mlle. Justine Glinka, was endeavoring to serve
her country in Paris by obtaining political information, which
she communicated to General Orgevskii in St. Petersburg. For
this purpose she employed a Jew, Joseph Schorst, member of the
Mizraim Lodge in Paris. One day Schorst offered to obtain for
her a document of great importance to Russia, on payment of
2,500 francs. This sum being received from St. Petersburg was
paid over and the document handed to Mlle. Glinka. She forwarded the French original, accompanied by a Russian
translation, to Orgevskii, who in turn handed it to his chief,
General Cherevin, for transmission to the Tsar. But Cherevin,
under obligation to wealthy Jews, refused to transmit it, merely
filing it in the archives. Meantime there appeared in Paris certain books on Russian court
life which displeased the Tsar, who ordered his secret police to
discover their authorship. This was falsely attributed, perhaps
with malicious intent, to Mlle. Glinka, and on her return to
Russia she was banished to her estate in Orel. To the marechalde
noblesse of this district, Alexis Sukhotin, Mlle. Glinka gavea
copy of the Protocols. Sukhotin showed the document to
twofriends, Stepanov and Nilus; the former had it printed
and circulated privately in 1897; the second, Professor Sergius
A.Nilus, published it for the first time in Tsarskoe-Tselc
(Russia)in 1901, in a book entitled The Great Within the Small.
Then, about the same time, a friend of Nilus, G. Butmi, also
brought it out and a copy was deposited in the British Museum on
August 10,1906. Meantime, through Jewish members of the Russian
police, minutes of the proceedings of the Basle congress in 1897
had been obtained and these were found to correspond with the
Protocols.
In January 1917, Nilus had
prepared a second edition, revised and documented, for
publication. But before it could be put on the market, the
revolution of March 1917 had taken place and Kerenski, who had
succeeded to power, ordered the whole edition of Nilus's book to
be destroyed. In 1924, Prof. Nilus was arrested by the Cheka in
Kiev, imprisoned, and tortured; he was told by the Jewish
president of the court, that this treatment was meted out to him
for "having done them incalculable harm in publishing the
Protocols". Released for a few months, he was again led before
the G.P.U. (Cheka), this time in Moscow and confined. Set at
liberty in February 1926, he died in exile in the district of
Vladimir on January 13, 1929.]

.....Putting aside fine phrases we shall speak of the significance of
each thought: by comparisons and deductions we shall throw light upon
surrounding facts. What I am about to set forth, then, is our system
from the two point[s] of view, that of ourselves and that of the goyim
(i.e., non-Jews). It must be noted that men with bad instincts are more
in number than the good, and therefore the best results in governing
them are attained by violence and terrorization, and not by academic
discussions. Every man aims at power, everyone would like to become a
dictator if only he could, and rare indeed are the men who would not be
willing to sacrifice the welfare of all for the sake of securing their
own welfare.
What has restrained the beasts of prey
who are called men? What has served for their guidance hitherto? In the
beginnings of the structure of society they were subjected to brutal and
blind force; afterwards -- to Law, which is the same force, only
disguised. I draw the conclusion that by the law of nature right lies in
force.
Political freedom is an idea but not a
fact. This idea one must know how to apply whenever it appears necessary
with this bait of an idea to attract the masses of the people to one's
party for the purpose of crushing another who is in authority. This task
is rendered easier if the opponent has himself been infected with the
idea of freedom, so-called liberalism, and, for the sake of an idea, is
willing to yield some of his power. It is precisely here that the
triumph of our theory appears: the slackened reins of government are
immediately, by the law of life, caught up and gathered together by a
new hand, because the blind might of the nation cannot for one single
day exist without guidance, and the new authority merely fits into the
place of the old already weakened by liberalism.
In our day the power which has replaced
that of the rulers who were liberal is the power of Gold. Time was when
Faith ruled. The idea of freedom is impossible of realization because no
one knows how to use it with moderation. It is enough to hand over a
people to self-government for a certain length of time for that people
to be turned into a disorganized mob. From that moment on we get
internecine strife which soon develops into battles between classes, in
the midst of which States burn down and their importance is reduced to
that of a heap of ashes.
Whether a State exhausts itself in its own
convulsions, whether its internal discord brings it under the power of
external foes -- in any case it can be accounted irretrievably lost: it
is in our power. The despotism of Capital, which is entirely in our
hands, reaches out to it a straw that the State, willy-nilly, must take
hold of: if not -- it goes to the bottom.
Should anyone of a liberal mind say that
such reflections as the above are immoral I would put the following
questions: -- If every State has two foes and if in regard to the
external foe it is allowed and not considered immoral to use every
manner and art of conflict, as for example to keep the enemy in
ignorance of plans of attack and defense, to attack him by night or in
superior numbers, then in what way can the same means in regard to a
worse foe, the destroyer of the structure of society and the
commonwealth, be called immoral and not permissible?
Is it possible for any sound logical mind to
hope with any success to guide crowds by the aid of reasonable counsels
and arguments, when any objection or contradiction, senseless though it
may be, can be made and when such objection may find more favor with the
people, whose powers of reasoning are superficial? Men in masses and the
men of the masses, being guided solely by petty passions, paltry
beliefs, customs, traditions and sentimental theorems, fall a prey to
party dissension, which hinders any kind of agreement even on the basis
of a perfectly reasonable argument. Every resolution of a crowd depends
upon a chance or packed majority, which, in its ignorance of political
secrets, put forth some ridiculous resolution that lays in the
administration a seed of anarchy. The political has nothing in common
with the moral. The ruler who is governed by the moral is not a skilled
politician, and is therefore unstable on his throne. He who wishes to
rule must have recourse both to cunning and to make-believe. Great
national qualities, like frankness and honesty, are vices in politics,
for they bring down rulers from their thrones more effectively and more
certainly than the most powerful enemy. Such qualities must be the
attributes of the kingdoms of the goyim, but we must in no wise be
guided by them.
Our right lies in force. The word "right"
is an abstract thought and proved by nothing. The word means no more
than: --Give me what I want in order that thereby I may have a proof
that I am stronger than you. Where does right begin? Where does it end?
In any State in which there is a bad
organization of authority, an impersonality of laws and of the rulers
who have lost their personality amid the flood of rights ever
multiplying out of liberalism, I find a new right -- to attack by the
right of the strong, and to scatter to the winds all existing forces of
order and regulation, to reconstruct all institutions and to become the
sovereign lord of those who have left to us the rights of their power by
laying them down voluntarily in their liberalism. Our power in the present tottering condition of all forms of power will
be more invisible than any other, because it will remain invisible until
the moment when it has gained such strength that no cunning can any
longer undermine it.
Before us is a plan in which is laid down strategically the line from
which we cannot deviate without running the risk of seeing the labor of
many centuries brought to naught.
In order to elaborate satisfactory forms of
action it is necessary to have regard to the rascality, the slackness,
the instability of the mob, its lack of capacity to understand and
respect the conditions of its own life, or its own welfare. It must be
understood that the might of a mob is blind, senseless and unreasoning
force ever at the mercy of a suggestion from any side. The blind cannot
lead the blind without bringing them into the abyss; consequently,
members of the mob, upstarts from the people even though they should be
as a genius for wisdom, yet having no understanding of the political,
cannot come forward as leaders of the mob without bringing the whole
nation to ruin. Only one trained from childhood for independent rule can
have understanding of the words that can be made up of the political
alphabet. A people left to itself
i.e., to upstarts from its midst, brings itself to ruin by party
dissensions excited by the pursuit of power and honors and the disorders
arising therefrom, Is impossible for the masses of the people calmly and
without petty jealousies to form judgments, to deal with the affairs of
the country, which cannot be mixed up with personal interests? Can they
defend themselves from an external foe? It is unthinkable, for a plan
broken up into as many parts as there are heads in the mob, loses all
homogeneity, and thereby becomes unintelligible and impossible of
execution.
It is only with a despotic ruler that
plans can be elaborated extensively and clearly in such a way as to
distribute the whole properly among the several parts of the machinery
of the State: from this the conclusion is inevitable that a satisfactory
form of government for any country is one that concentrates in the hands
of one responsible person. Without an absolute despotism there can be no
existence for civilization which is carried on not by the masses but by
their guide, whosoever that person may be. The mob is a savage and
displays its savagery at every opportunity. The moment the mob seizes
freedom in its hands it quickly turns to anarchy, which in itself is the
highest degree of savagery.
Behold the alcoholized animals, bemused
with drink, the right to an immoderate use of which comes along with
freedom. It's not for us and ours to walk that road. The peoples of the
goyim are bemused with alcoholic liquors; their youth has grown stupid
on classicism and from early immorality, into which it has been inducted
by our special agents -- by tutors, lackeys, governesses in the houses
of the wealthy, by clerks and others, by our women in the places of
dissipation frequented by the goyim. In the number of these last I count
also the so-called" society ladies," voluntary followers of the others
in corruption and luxury.
Our countersign is -- Force and
Make-believe. Only force conquers in political affairs, especially if it
be concealed in the talents essential to statesmen. Violence must be the
principle, and cunning and make-believe the rule for governments which
do not want to lay down their crowns at the feet of agents of some new
power. This evil is the one and only means to attain the end, the good.
Therefore we must not stop at bribery, deceit and treachery when they
should serve towards the attainment of our end. In politics one must
know how to seize the property of others without hesitation if by it we
secure submission and sovereignty.
Our State, marching along the path of
peaceful conquest, has the right to replace the horrors of war by less
noticeable and more satisfactory sentences of death, necessary to
maintain the terror which tends to produce blind submission. Just but
merciless severity is the greatest factor of strength in the State: not
only for the sake of gain but also in the name of duty, for the sake of
victory, we must keep to the program of violence and make-believe. The
doctrine of squaring accounts is precisely as strong as the means of
which it makes use. Therefore it is not so much by the means themselves
as by the doctrine of severity that we shall triumph and bring all
governments into subjection to our super-government. It is enough for
them to know that we are merciless for all disobedience to cease.
Far back in ancient times we were the
first to cry among the masses of the people the words "Liberty,
Equality, Fraternity," words many times repeated since those days by
stupid poll-parrots who from all sides round flew down upon these baits
and with them carried away the well-being of the world, true freedom of
the individual, formerly so well guarded against the pressure of the
mob. The would-be wise men of the goyim, the intellectuals, couldn't
make anything out of the uttered words in their abstractness; did not
note the contradiction of their meaning and inter-relation: did not see
that in nature there is no equality, cannot be freedom; that Nature
herself has established inequality of minds, of characters, and
capacities, just as immutably as she has established subordination to
her laws: never stopped to think that the mob is a blind thing, that
upstarts elected from among it to bear rule are, in regard to the
political, the same blind men as the mob itself, that the adept, though
he be a fool, can yet rule, whereas the non-adept, even if he were a
genius, understands nothing in the political -- to all these things the
goyim paid no regard; yet all the time it was based upon these things
that dynastic rule rested: the father passed on to the son a knowledge
of the course of political affairs in such wise that none should know it
but members of the dynasty and none could betray it to the governed. As
time went on the meaning of the dynastic transference of the true
position of affairs in the political was lost, and this aided the
success of our cause.
In all corners of the earth the words
"Liberty, Equality, Fraternity" brought to our ranks, thanks to our
blind agents, whole legions who bore our banners with enthusiasm. And
all the time these words were canker-worms at work boring into the
well-being of the goyim, putting an end everywhere to peace, quiet,
solidarity and destroying all the foundations of the goya States. As you
will see later, this helped us to our triumph; it gave us the
possibility, among other things, of getting into our hands the master
card -- the destruction of the privileges, or in other words of the very
existence of the aristocracy of the goyim, that class which was the only
defense peoples and countries had against us. On the ruins of the
natural and genealogical aristocracy of the goyim we have set up the
aristocracy of our educated class headed by the aristocracy of money.
The qualifications for this aristocracy we have established in wealth,
which is dependent upon us, and in knowledge, for which our learned
elders provide the motive force.
Our triumph has been rendered easier by
the fact that in our relations with the men whom we wanted we have
always worked upon the most sensitive chords of the human mind, upon the
cash account, upon the cupidity, upon the insatiability for material
needs of man: and each one of these human weaknesses, taken alone, is
sufficient to paralyze initiative, for it hands over the will of men to
the disposition of him who has bought their activities.
The abstraction of freedom has enabled us
to persuade the mob in all countries that their government is nothing
but the steward of the people who are the owners of the country, and
that the steward may be replaced like a worn-out glove.
It is this possibility of replacing the
representatives of the people which has placed them at our disposal,
and, as it were, given us the power of appointment.
PROTOCOL NO. 2
Economic Wars--the foundation of
the Jewish predominance. Figure-head government and "secret

educating their minds in the direction we want. Do not suppose for

|
It is indispensable for our purpose that wars, so far as possible,
should not result in territorial gains: war will thus be brought on to
the economic ground, where the nations will not fail to perceive in the
assistance we give the strength of our predominance, and this state of
things will put both sides at the mercy of our international agentur;
which possesses millions of eyes ever on the watch and unhampered my any
limitations whatsoever. Our international rights will then wipe out
national rights, in the proper sense of right, and will rule the nations
precisely as the civil law of States rules the relations of their
subjects among themselves. The
administrators, whom we shall choose from among the public, with strict
regard to their capacities for servile obedience, will not be persons
trained in the arts of government, and will therefore easily become
pawns in our game in the hands of men of learning and genius who will be
their advisers, specialists bred and reared from early childhood to rule
the affairs of the whole world. As is well known to you, these
specialists of ours have been drawing to fit them for rule the
information they need from our political plans from the lessons of
history, from observations made of the events of every moment as it
passes. The goyim are not guided by practical use of unprejudiced
historical observation, but by theoretical routine without any critical
regard for consequent results. We need not, therefore, take any account
of them -- let them amuse themselves until the hour strikes, or live on
hopes of new forms of enterprising pastime, or on the memories of all
they have enjoyed.
For them let
that play the principal part which we have persuaded them to accept as
the dictates of science (theory). It is with this object in view that we
are constantly, by means of our press, arousing a blind confidence in
these theories. The intellectuals of the goyim will puff themselves up
with their knowledge and without any logical verification of them will
put into effect all the information available from science, which our
agentur specialists have cunningly pieced together for the purpose of
educating their minds in the direction we want. Do not suppose for
a moment that these statements are empty words: think carefully of the
successes we arranged for
Darwinism, Marxism, Nietzscheism. To us Jews, at any rate, it should
be plain to see what a disintegrating importance these directives have
had upon the minds of the goyim.
It is indispensable for us to take
account of the thoughts, characters, tendencies of the nations in order
to avoid making slips in the political and in the direction of
administrative affairs. The triumph of our system, of which the
component parts of the machinery may be variously disposed according to
the temperament of the peoples met on our way, will fail of success if
the practical application of it be not based upon a summing up of the
lessons of the past in the light of the present.
In the hands of the States of to-day
there is a great force that creates the movement of thought in the
people, and that is the Press. The part played by the Press is to keep
pointing out requirements supposed to be indispensable, to give voice to
the complaints of the people, to express and create discontent. It is in
the Press that the triumph of freedom of speech finds its incarnation.
But the goyim States have not known how to make use of this force; and
it has fallen into our hands. Through the Press we have gained the power
to influence while remaining ourselves in the shade: thanks to the Press
we have got the gold in our hands, notwithstanding that we have had to
gather it out of the oceans of blood and tears. But it has paid us,
though we have sacrificed many of our people. Each victim on our side is
worth in the sight of God a thousand goyim.

side with good stuff, once the proletariat has no other profit out of
the constitution save only those pitiful crumbs which we fling them from
our table in return for their voting in favour of what we dictate, in
favour of the men we place in power..." |
|
Today I may tell you that our goal is now only a few steps off. There
remains a small space to cross and the whole long path we have trodden
is ready now to close its cycle of the Symbolic Snake, by which we
symbolize our people. When this ring closes, all the States of Europe
will be locked in its coil as in a powerful vice.
The constitution scales of these days
will shortly breakdown, for we have established them with a certain lack
of accurate balance in order that they may oscillate incessantly until
they wear through the pivot on which they turn. The goyim are under the
impression that they have welded them sufficiently strong and they have
all along kept on expecting that the scales would come into equilibrium.
But the pivots -- the kings on their thrones -- are hemmed in by their
representatives, who play the fool, distraught with their own
uncontrolled and irresponsible power. This power they owe to the terror
which has been breathed into the palaces. As they have no means of
getting at their people, into their very midst, the kings on their
thrones are no longer able to come to terms with them and so strengthen
themselves against seekers after power. We have made a gulf between the
far-seeing Sovereign Power and the blind force of the people so that
both have lost all meaning, for like the blind man and his stick, both
are powerless apart.
In order to incite seekers after power to
a misuse of power we have set all forces in opposition one to another,
breaking up their liberal tendencies towards independence. To this end
we have stirred up every form of enterprise we have armed all parties,
we have set up authority as a target for every ambition. Of States we
have made gladiatorial arenas where a host of confused issues contend. A
little more, and disorders and bankruptcy will be universal.
Babblers inexhaustible have turned into
oratorical contests the sittings of Parliament and Administrative
Boards. Bold journalists and unscrupulous pamphleteers daily fall upon
executive officials. Abuses of power will put the final touch in
preparing all institutions for their overthrow and everything will fly
skyward under the blows of the maddened mob.
All people are chained down to heavy toil
by poverty more firmly than ever they were chained by slavery and
serfdom; from these, one way and another, they might free themselves,
these could be settled with, but from want they will never get away. We
have included in the constitution such rights as to the masses appear
fictitious and not actual rights. All these so-called" People's Rights"
can exist only in idea, an idea which can never be realized in practical
life. What is it to the proletariat labourer, bowed double over his
heavy toll, crushed by his lot in life, if talkers get the right to
babble, if journalists get the right to scribble any nonsense side by
side with good stuff, once the proletariat has no other profit out of
the constitution save only those pitiful crumbs which we fling them from
our table in return for their voting in favour of what we dictate, in
favour of the men we place in power, the servants of our
agentur....Republican rights for a poor man are no more than a bitter
piece of irony, for the necessity he is under of toiling almost all day
gives him no present use of them, but on the other hand robs him of all
guarantee of regular and certain earnings by making him dependent on
strikes by his comrades or lockouts by his masters.
The people under our guidance have
annihilated the aristocracy, who were their one and only defense and
foster-mother for the sake of their own advantage which is inseparably
bound up with the well-being of the people. Nowadays, with the
destruction of the aristocracy, the people have fallen into the grips of
merciless money-grinding scoundrels who have laid a pitiless and cruel
yoke upon the necks of the workers.
We appear on the scene as alleged saviors
of the worker from this oppression when we propose to him to enter the
ranks of our fighting forces -- Socialists, Anarchists, Communists -- to
whom we always give support in accordance with an alleged brotherly rule
(of the solidarity of all humanity) of our social masonry. The
aristocracy, which enjoyed by law the labor of the workers, was
interested in seeing that the workers were well fed, healthy and strong.
We are interested in just the opposite -- in the diminution, the killing
out of the GOYIM. Our power is in the chronic shortness of food and
physical weakness of the worker because by all that this implies he is
made the slave of our will, and he will not find in his own authorities
either strength or energy to set against our will. Hunger creates the
right of capital to rule the worker more surely than it was given to the
aristocracy by the legal authority of kings.
By want and the envy and hatred which it
engenders we shall move the mobs and with their hands we shall wipe out
all those who hinder us on our way. When the hour strikes for our
Sovereign Lord of all the World to be crowned it is these same hands
which will sweep away everything that might be a hindrance thereto. The
goyim have lost the habit of thinking unless prompted by the suggestions
of our specialists. Therefore they do not see the urgent necessity of
what we, when our kingdom comes, shall adopt at once, namely this, that
it is essential to teach in national schools one simple, true piece of
knowledge, the basis of all knowledge -- the knowledge of the structure
of human life, of social existence, which requires division of labor,
and, consequently, the division of men into classes and conditions. It
is essential for all to know that owing to difference in the objects of
human activity there cannot be any equality, that he who by any act of
his compromises a whole class cannot be equally responsible before the
law with him who affects no one but only his own honor. The true
knowledge of the structure of society, into the secrets of which we do
not admit the goyim, would demonstrate to all men that the positions and
work must be kept within a certain circle, that they may not become a
source of human suffering, arising from an education which does not
correspond with the work which individuals are called upon to do. After
a thorough study of this knowledge the peoples will voluntarily submit
to authority and accept such position as is appointed them in the State.
In the present state of knowledge and the direction we have given to its
development the people, blindly believing things in print -- cherishes
-- thanks to promptings intended to mislead and to its own ignorance --
a blind hatred towards all conditions which it considers above itself,
for it has no understanding of the meaning of class and condition.
This hatred will be still further
magnified by the effects of an economic crisis, which will stop dealings
on the exchanges and bring industry to a standstill. We shall create by
all the secret subterranean methods open to us and with the aid of gold,
which is all in our hands, a universal economic crisis whereby we shall
throw upon the streets whole mobs of workers simultaneously in all the
countries of Europe. These mobs will rush delightedly to shed the blood
of those whom, in the simplicity of their ignorance, they have envied
from their cradles, and whose property they will then be able to loot.
"Ours" they will not touch, because the
moment of attack will be known to us and we shall take measures to
protect our own. We have demonstrated that progress will bring all the
goyim to the sovereignty of reason. Our despotism will be precisely
that; for it will know how by wise severities to pacificate all unrest,
to cauterize liberalism out of all institutions. When the populace has
seen that all sorts of concessions and indulgences are yielded it in the
name of freedom it has imagined itself to be sovereign lord and has
stormed its way to power, but, naturally, like every other blind man it
has come upon a host of stumbling blocks, it has rushed to find a guide,
it has never had the sense to return to the former state and it has laid
down its plenipotentiary powers at our feet. Remember the French
Revolution, to which it was we who gave the name of "Great": the secrets
of its preparations are well known to us for it was wholly the work of
our hands.
| "The word
'freedom' brings out the
communities of men to fight against every kind of force, against every
kind of authority, even against God and the laws of nature. For this
reason we, when we come into our kingdom, shall have to erase this word
from the lexicon of life as implying a principle of brute force which
turns mobs into bloodthirsty beasts." |
|
Ever since that time we have been leading
the peoples from one disenchantment to another, so that in the end they
should turn also from us in favour of that King-Despot of the blood of
Zion, whom we are preparing for the world.
At the present day we are, as an
international force, invincible, because if attacked by some we are
supported by other States. It is the bottomless rascality of the goyim
peoples, who crawl on their bellies to force, but are merciless towards
weakness, unsparing to faults and indulgent to crimes, unwilling to bear
the contradictions of a free social system but patient unto martyrdom
under the violence of a bold despotism -- it is those qualities which
are aiding us to independence. From the premier-dictators of the present
day the goyim peoples suffer patiently and bear such abuses as for the
least of them they would have beheaded twenty kings.
What is the explanation of this
phenomenon, this curious inconsequence of the masses of the peoples in
their attitude towards what would appear to be events of the same order?
It is explained by the fact that these
dictators whisper to the peoples through their agents that through these
abuses they're inflicting injury on the States with the highest purpose
--to secure the welfare of the peoples, the international brotherhood of
them all, their solidarity and equality of rights. Naturally they do not
tell the peoples that this unification must be accomplished only under
our sovereign rule.
And thus the people condemn the upright
and acquit the guilty, persuaded ever more and more that it can do
whatsoever it wishes. Thanks to this state of things the people are
destroying every kind of stability and creating disorders at every step.
The word "freedom" brings out the
communities of men to fight against every kind of force, against every
kind of authority, even against God and the laws of nature. For this
reason we, when we come into our kingdom, shall have to erase this word
from the lexicon of life as implying a principle of brute force which
turns mobs into bloodthirsty beasts.
These beasts, it is true, fall asleep
again every time when they have drunk their fill of blood, and at such
times can easily be riveted into their chains. But if they be not given
blood they will not sleep and continue the struggle.

Stages of a Republic. Gentile
Masonry. Freedom and Faith. International Industrial Competition.
Role of Speculation. Cult of Gold.
| "Who and what is in a position to
overthrow an invisible force? And this is precisely what our force is.
Gentile masonry blindly serves as a screen for us and our objects, but
the plan of action of our force, even its very abiding place, remains
for the whole people an unknown mystery." |
|
Every republic passes through several stages. The first of these is
comprised in the early days of mad raging by the blind mob, tossed
hither and thither, right and left: the second is demagogy, from which
is born anarchy, and that leads inevitably to despotism -- not any
longer legal and overt, and therefore responsible despotism, but to
unseen and secretly hidden, yet nevertheless sensibly felt despotism in
the hands of some secret organization or other, whose acts are the more
unscrupulous inasmuch as it works behind a screen, behind the backs of
allsorts of agents, the changing of whom not only does not injuriously
affect but actually aids the secret force by saving it, thanks to
continual changes, from the necessity of expending its resources on the
rewarding of long services.
Who and what is in a position to
overthrow an invisible force? And this is precisely what our force is.
Gentile masonry blindly serves as a screen for us and our objects, but
the plan of action of our force, even its very abiding place, remains
for the whole people an unknown mystery.
But even freedom might be harmless and have
its place in the State economy without injury to the well-being of the
peoples if it rested upon the foundation of faith in God, upon the
brotherhood of humanity, unconnected with the conception of equality,
which is negatived by the very laws of creation, for they have
established subordination. With such a faith as this a people might be
governed by a wardship of parishes, and would walk contentedly and
humbly under the guiding hand of its spiritual pastor submitting to the
dispositions of God upon earth. This is the reason why it is
indispensable for us to undermine all faith, to tear of minds out of the
GOYIM the very principle of Godhead and the spirit, and to put in its
place arithmetical calculations and material needs.
In order to give the goyim no time to
think and take note, their minds must be diverted towards industry and
trade. Thus, all the nations will be swallowed up in the pursuit of gain
and in the race for it will not take note of their common foe. But
again, in order that freedom may once for all disintegrate and ruin the
communities of the goyim, we must put industry on a speculative basis:
the result of this will be that what is withdrawn from the land by
industry will slip through the handstand pass into speculation, that is,
to our classes.
The intensified struggle for superiority
and shocks delivered to economic life will create, nay, have already
created, disenchanted, cold and heartless communities. Such communities
will foster a strong aversion towards the higher political and towards
religion. Their only guide is gain, that is Gold, which they will erect
into a veritable cult, for the sake of those material delights which it
can give. Then will the hour strike when, not for the sake of attaining
the good, not even to win wealth, but solely out of hatred towards the
privileged, the lower classes of the goyim will follow our lead against
our rivals for power, the intellectuals of the goyim.

What form of administrative rule can
be given to communities in which corruption has penetrated everywhere,
communities where riches are attained only by the clever surprise
tactics of semi-swindling tricks; where looseness reigns: where morality
is maintained by penal measures and harsh laws but not by voluntarily
accepted principles: where the feelings toward faith and country are
obliterated by cosmopolitan convictions? What form of rule is to be
given to these communities if not that despotism which I shall describe
to you later? We shall create an intensified centralization of
government in order to grip in [our] hands all the forces of the
community. We shall regulate mechanically all the actions of the
political life of our subjects by new laws. These laws will withdraw one
by one all the indulgences and liberties which have been permitted by
the goyim, and our kingdom will be distinguished by a despotism of such
magnificent proportions as to be at any moment and in every place in a
position to wipe out any goyim who oppose us by deed or word.
We shall be told that such a despotism as
I speak of is not consistent with the progress of these days, but I will
prove to you that it is. In the times when the peoples looked upon kings
on their thrones as on a pure manifestation of the will of God, they
submitted without a murmur to the despotic power of kings: but from the
day when we insinuated into their minds the conception of their own
rights they began to regard the occupants of thrones as mere ordinary
mortals. The holy unction of the Lord's Anointed has fallen from the
heads of kings in the eye of the people, and when we also robbed them of
their faith in God the might of power was flung upon the streets into
the place of public proprietorship and was seized by us.
Moreover, the art of deflecting masses
and individuals by means of cleverly manipulated theory and verbiage, by
regulations of life in common and all sorts of other quirks, in all
which the goyim understand nothing, belongs likewise to the specialists
of our administrative brain. Reared on analysis, observation, on
delicacies of fine calculation, in this species of skill we have no
rivals, any more than we have either in the drawing up of plans of
political actions and solidarity. ln this respect the Jesuits alone
might have compared with us, but we have contrived to discredit them in
the eyes of the unthinking mob as an overt organization, while we
ourselves all the while have kept our secret organization in the shade.
However, it is probably all the same to the world who is its sovereign
lord, whether the head of Catholicism or our despot of the blood of
Zion! But to us, the Chosen People, it is very far from being a matter
of indifference.
For a time perhaps we might be
successfully dealt with by a coalition of the GOYIM of all the world:
but from this danger we are secured by the discord existing among them
whose roots are so deeply seated that they can never now be plucked up.
We have set one against another the personal and national reckonings of
the goyim, religious and race hatreds, which we have fostered into a
huge growth in the course of the past twenty centuries. This is the
reason why there is not one State which would anywhere receive support
if it were to raise its arm, for every one of them must bear in mind
that any agreement against us would be unprofitable to itself. We are
too strong--there is no evading our power. The nations cannot come to
even an inconsiderable private agreement without our secretly having a
hand in it.
"Per Me reges regnant". ("It is through
me that Kings reign.") And it was said by the prophets that we were
chosen by God Himself to rule over the whole earth. God has endowed us
with genius that we may be equal to our task. Were genius in the
opposite camp it would still struggle against us, but even so a newcomer
is no match for the old-established settler; the struggle would be
merciless between us, such a fight as the world has never yet seen. Aye,
and the genius on their side would have arrived too late. All the wheels
of the machinery of all States go by the force of the engine, which is
in our hands, and that engine of the machinery of States is Gold. The
science of political economy invented by our learned elders has for long
past been giving royal prestige to capital.
Capital, if it is to co-operate
untrammeled, must be free to establish a monopoly of industry and trade:
this is already being put in execution by an unseen hand in all quarters
of the world. This freedom will give political force to those engaged in
industry, and that will help to oppress the people. Nowadays it is more
important to disarm the peoples than to lead them into war; more
important to use for our advantage the passions which have burst into
flames than to quench their fire; more important to catch up and
interpret the ideas of others to suit ourselves than to eradicate them.
The principal object of our directorate consists in this: to debilitate
the public mind by criticism; to lead it away from serious reflections
calculated to arouse resistance; to distract the forces of the mind
towards a sham fight of empty eloquence.
In all ages the peoples of the world,
equally with individuals, have accepted words for deeds, for they are
content with a show and rarely pause to note, in the public arena,
whether promises are followed by performance. Therefore we shall
establish show institutions which will give eloquent proof of their
benefit to progress. We shall assume to ourselves the liberal
physiognomy of all parties, of all directions, and we shall give that
physiognomy a voice in orators who will speak so much that they will
exhaust the patience of their hearers and produce an abhorrence of
oratory.
In order to put public opinion into our
hands we must bring it into a state of bewilderment by giving expression
from all sides to so many contradictory opinions and for such length of
time as will suffice to make the GOYIM lose their heads in the labyrinth
and come to see that the best thing is to have no opinion of any kind in
matters political, which it is not given to the public to understand,
because they are understood only by him who guides the public. This is
the first secret.
The second secret requisite for the
success of our government is comprised in the following: To multiply to
such an extent national failings, habits, passions, conditions of civil
life, that it will be impossible for anyone to know where he is in the
resulting chaos, so that the people in consequence will fail to
understand one another. This measure will also serve us in another way,
namely, to sow discord in all parties, to dislocate all collective
forces which are still unwilling to submit to us, and to discourage any
kind of personal initiative which might in any degree hinder our affair.
There is nothing more dangerous than personal initiative; if it has
genius behind it, such initiative can do more than can be done by
million, of people among whom we have sown discord. We must so direct
the education of the goyim communities that whenever they come upon a
matter requiring initiative they may drop their hands in despairing
impotence. The strain which results from freedom of action saps the
forces when it meets with the freedom of another. From this collision arise grave moral shocks, disenchantments, failures.
By all these means we shall so wear down the GOYIM that they will be
compelled to offer us international power of nature that by its position
will enable us without any violence gradually to absorb all the State
forces of the world and to forma Super-Government. In place of the
rulers of to-day we shall setup a bogey which will be called the
Super-Government Administration. Its hands will reach out in all
directions like nippers and its organization will be of such colossal
dimensions that it cannot fail to subdue all the nations of the world.
PROTOCOL NO. 6
Monopolies; upon them depend the
fortunes of the goyim. Taking of the land out of the hands of the
aristocracy. Trade, Industry and Speculation. Luxury. Rise of wages
and increase of price in the articles of primary necessity.
Anarchism and drunkenness. Secret meaning of the propaganda, of
economic theories.
| "We shall
raise the rate of wages which, however, will not
bring any advantage to the workers, for at the same
time, we shall produce a rise in prices of the first
necessaries of life, alleging that it arises from
the decline of agriculture and cattle breeding..." |
|
We shall soon begin to establish huge
monopolies, reservoirs of colossal riches, upon which even large
fortunes of the goyim will depend to such an extent that they will go to
the bottom together with the credit of the States on the day after the
political smash....
You gentlemen here present who are
economists, just strike an estimate of the significance of this
combination!
In every possible way we must develop the
significance of our Super-Government by representing it as the Protector
and Benefactor of all those who voluntarily submit to us.
The aristocracy of the goyim as a
political force, is dead -- we need not take it into account; but as
landed proprietors they can still be harmful to us from the fact that
they are self-sufficing in the resources upon which they live. It is
essential therefore for us at whatever cost to deprive them of their
land. This object will be best attained by increasing the burdens upon
landed property -- in loading lands with debt. These measures will check
land-holding and keep it in a state of humble and unconditional
submission. The aristocrats of the
goyim, being hereditarily incapable of contenting themselves with
little, will rapidly burn up and fizzle out. At the same time we
must intensively patronize trade and industry, but, first and foremost,
speculation, the part played by which is to provide a counterpoise to
industry: the absence of speculative industry will multiply capital in
private hands and will serve to restore agriculture by freeing the land
from indebtedness to the land banks. What we want is that industry
should drain off from the land both labor and capital and by means of
speculation transfer into our hands all the money of the world, and
thereby throw all the goyim into the ranks of the proletariat. Then the
goyim will bow down before us, if for no other reason but to get the
right to exist.
To complete the ruin of the industry of
the goyim we shall bring to the assistance of speculation the luxury
which we have developed among the goyim, that greedy demand for luxury
which is swallowing up everything. We shall raise the rate of wages
which, however, will not bring any advantage to the workers, for at the
same time, we shall produce a rise in prices of the first necessaries of
life, alleging that it arises from the decline of agriculture and cattle
breeding: we shall further undermine artfully and deeply sources of
production, by accustoming the workers to anarchy and to drunkenness and
side by side therewith taking all measure to extirpate from the fact of
the earth all the educated forces of the GOYIM.
In order that the true meaning of things
may not strike the GOYIM before the proper time we shall mask it under
an alleged ardent desire to serve the working classes and the great
principles of political economy about which our economic theories are
carrying on an energetic propaganda.
PROTOCOL NO. 7
Object of the intensification of
armaments. Ferments, discords and hostility all over the world.
Checking the opposition of the goyim by wars and by a universal war.
Secrecy means success in the political. The Press and public
opinion. The guns of America, China and Japan.
| "We must be in a position to respond to
every act of opposition by war with the neighbors of that country which
dares to oppose us: but if these neighbors should also venture to stand
collectively together against us, then we must offer resistance by a
universal war." |
|
The intensification of armaments, the
increase of police forces -- are all essential for the completion of the
aforementioned plans. What we have to get at is that there should be in
all the States of the world, besides ourselves, only the masses of the
proletariat, a few millionaires devoted to our interests, police and
soldiers. Throughout all Europe, and by means of relations with Europe,
in other continents also, we must create ferments, discords and
hostility. Therein we gain a double advantage. In the first place we
keep in check all countries, for they well know that we have the power
whenever we like to create disorders or to restore order. All these
countries are accustomed to see in us an indispensable force of
coercion. In the second place, by our intrigues we shall tangle up all
the threads which we have stretched into the cabinets of all States by
means of the political, by economic treaties, or loan obligations. In
order to succeed in this we must use great cunning and penetration
during negotiations and agreements, but, as regards what is called the"
official language," we shall keep to the opposite tactics and assume the
mask of honesty and compliancy. In this way the peoples and governments
of the goyim, whom we have taught to look only at the outside whatever
we present to their notice, will still continue to accept us as the
benefactors and saviors of the human race.
We must be in a position to respond to
every act of opposition by war with the neighbors of that country which
dares to oppose us: but if these neighbors should also venture to stand
collectively together against us, then we must offer resistance by a
universal war.
The principal factor of success in the
political is the secrecy of its undertakings: the word should not agree
with the deeds of the diplomat.
We must compel the governments of the
goyim to take action in the direction favored by our widely-conceived
plan, already approaching the desired consummation, by what we shall
represent as public opinion, secretly prompted by us through the means
of that so-called "Great Power" -- the Press, which, with a few
exceptions that may be disregarded, is already entirely in our hands.
In a word, to sum up our system of keeping
the governments of the goyim in Europe in check, we shall show our
strength to one of them by terrorist attempts and to all, if we allow
the possibility of a general rising against us, we shall respond with
the guns of America or China or Japan.

Ambiguous employment of juridical

We must arm ourselves with all the
weapons which our opponents might employ against us. We must search out
in the very finest shades of expression and the knotty points of the
lexicon of law justification for those cases where we shall have to
pronounce judgments that might appear abnormally audacious and unjust,
for it is important that these resolutions should be set forth in
expressions that shall seem to be the most exalted moral principles cast
into legal form. Our directorate must surround itself with all these
forces of civilization among which it will have to work. It will
surround itself with publicists, practical jurists, administrators,
diplomats and, finally, with persons prepared by a special
super-educational training in our special schools. These persons will
have cognizance of all the secrets of the social structure, they will
know all the languages that can be made up by political alphabets and
words; they will be made acquainted with the whole underside of human
nature, with all its sensitive chords on which they will have to play.
These chords are the cast of mind of the goyim, their tendencies,
shortcomings, vices and qualities, the particularities of classes and
conditions. Needless to say that the talented assistants of authority,
of whom I speak, will be taken not from among the goyim, who are
accustomed to perform their administrative work without giving
themselves the trouble to think what its aim is, and never consider what
it is needed for. The administrators of the goyim sign papers without
reading them, and they serve either for mercenary reasons or from
ambition.
We shall surround our government with a
whole world of economists. That is the reason why economic sciences form
the principal subject of the teaching given to the Jews. Around us again
will be a whole constellation of bankers, industrialists, capitalists
and -- the main thing millionaires, because in substance everything will
be settled by the question of figures.
For a time, until there will no longer be
any risk in entrusting responsible posts in our States to our brother
Jews, we shall put them in the hands of persons whose past and
