42 The International Jew

a number of contradictions which do not exist in the Protocols in their

present form. The purpose of the plan revealed in the Protocols is to

undermine all authority in order that a new authority in the form of an

autocracy may be set up. Such a plan would not emanate from a ruling

class which already possessed authority although it might emanate from

anarchists. But anarchists do not avow autocracy as the ultimate

condition they seek. The authors might be conceived as a company of

French Subversives such as existed at the time of the French Revolution

and had the infamous Due d' Orleans as their leader, but this would

involve a contradiction betWeen the fact that those Subversives have

passed away, and the fact that the program announced in these Protocols

is being steadily carried out, not only in France, but throughout Europe,

and very no~ceably in the United States.

In their present form .w.Jtich bears evidence of being their original

form, there is no contradiction..The allegation of Jewish authorship seems

essential to the consistency of the plan. ·

. If these documents were the forgeries which Jewish apologists claim

them to be, the forgers would probably have ~ken pains to make Jewish

authorship so clear that their anti-Semitic purpose could easily have been

detected. But only twice is the te~ "Jew" used in them. After one has

read further than the average reader usually cares to go into such matters,

one comes upon the plans for the establishment of the World Autocrat,

and only then is it made clear of what lineage he is to be.

But all through.the documents there is left no doubt as to th~ · people

·- . )

against whom the plan is aimed. It IS not aimed against capital as such.

Very definite provisions are made for the enlistment of aristocracy,

capital and government for the execution of the plan. It is aimed against

the people of the ·world who are called "Gentiles. " It is the'.frequent

mention of "Gentiles" that really decides the purpose of the documents .

Most of the destructive type of "liberal" plans aim at the enlistment of the

people in order that they may be reduced to confusion of mind and thus

manipulated. .· Pop~lar movements of a "liberal~ kind are . to be

enc<;mraged, all the disruptive philosophies in religion, economics ,

politics and domestic life are to be sown and watered, for the purpose of

so disintegrating social solidarity and a definite plan, herein set forth,

may be put through without notice, and the people then molded to it when

the fallacy of these philosophies is shown.

An Introduction to the "Jewish Protocols" 43

The formula of speech is not, "We Jews will do this," but the "The

Gentiles will be made to think and do these things." With the exception

of a few instances in the closing Protocols, the only distinctive racial term

used is "Gentiles."

RACIAL DIVERGENCES

To illustrate: the first indication of this kind comes in the First

Protocol in this way:

"The great qualities of the people-honesty and frankness- are

essemiaily vices in politics, because they dethrone more surely and

more certainly than does the strongest enemy. These qualities are

attributes of Gentile rule; we certainly must not be guided by them."

And again:

"On the ruins of the hereditarJ aristocracy of the Gentiles we have

set up the aristocracy of our educated class, and over all the

aristocra~y of money. We ha~e established the basis of this new

aristocracy on the basis of tiches, which we control, and on the

science guided by our wise men."

Again:

"We will force up wages which, however, wili be of no benefit to

workers, for we at the same time will cause a rise in prices of prin1e

n~ccssities, pretending t."'1at this is due to the decline of agriculture

and of cattle raising. We will also artfully and deeply undennine the

sources of Prvduction by instilling in the workmen ideas of anarchy,

and encourage them in the use of alcohol, at the same time taking .

measures to drive all the intellectual forces of the Gentiles from the

land."

(A forger with anti-Semitic malice might have written this any time

withiq t.~e last five years, but these words were in print as early as 1905,

a copy having been in the British Museum since 1906, and they were
