Protocols of the Learned
Elders of Zion
Translated by Victor E. Marsden
PROTOCOL 6: TAKE-OVER
TECHNIQUE
1. 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 ...
2. You gentlemen here present who are economists, just strike
an estimate of the significance of this combination! ...
3. 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.
4. 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 debts. These measures will check
land-holding and keep it in a state of humble and un-conditional submission.
5. The aristocrats of the GOYIM, being hereditarily incapable
of contenting themselves with little, will rapidly burn up and fizzle out.
WE SHALL ENSLAVE GENTILES
6. 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.
7. 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 FACE OF THE
EARTH ALL THE EDUCATED FORCES OF THE "GOYIM."
8. 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.
