The FBI has apologized for a tweet Wednesday that published a copy of the Protocols of Learned Elders of Zion.

 

Earlier today FOIA materials were posted to the FBI’s Vault and FOIA Twitter account via an automated process without further outlining the context of the documents. We regret that this release may have inadvertently caused distress among the communities we serve.— FBI (@FBI) August 19, 2020

 

The FBI also explained in a statement that it “must process historical files that were collected in the past some of which may be considered offensive.”

 

The tweet from the FBI Records Vault contained only the label “Protocols of Learned Elders of Zion” and a link to the historical document. The account describes itself as the “FOIA Library, containing 6,700 documents and other media that have been scanned from paper into digital copies so you can read them in the comfort of your home or office.”
