Protocols of the Learned
Elders of Zion
Translated by Victor E. Marsden
PROTOCOL 2: ECONOMIC
WARS
1. 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 by 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.
2. 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
knowledges 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.
DESTRUCTIVE EDUCATION
3. Do not suppose for a moment that these statements are empty
words: think carefully of the successes we arranged for Darwinism, Marxism,
Nietzsche-ism. 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.
4. 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.
5. 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 our requirements supposed to be
indispensable, to give voice to the complaints of the people, to express and to
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.
