Protocols of the Learned
Elders of Zion
Translated by Victor E. Marsden
PROTOCOL 19: RULERS
AND PEOPLE
1. If we do not permit any independent dabbling in the
political we shall on the other hand encourage every kind of report or petition
with proposals for the government to examine into all kinds of projects for the
amelioration of the condition of the people; this will reveal to us the defects
or else the fantasies of our subjects, to which we shall respond either by
accomplishing them or by a wise rebuttment to prove the shortsightedness of one
who judges wrongly.
2. Sedition-mongering is nothing more than the yapping of a
lap-dog at an elephant. For a government well organized, not from the police but
from the public point of view, the lap-dog yaps at the elephant in entire
unconsciousness of its strength and importance. It needs no more than to take a
good example to show the relative importance of both and the lap-dogs will cease
to yap and will wag their tails the moment they set eyes on an elephant.
3. In order to destroy the prestige of heroism for political
crime we shall send it for trial in the category of thieving, murder, and every
kind of abominable and filthy crime. Public opinion will then confuse in its
conception of this category of crime with the disgrace attaching to every other
and will brand it with the same contempt.
4. We have done our best, and I hope we have succeeded to
obtain that the GOYIM should not arrive at this means of contending with
sedition. It was for this reason that through the Press and in speeches,
indirectly -- in cleverly compiled school-books on history, we have advertised
the martyrdom alleged to have been accredited by sedition-mongers for the idea
of the commonweal. This advertisement has increased the contingent of liberals
and has brought thousands of GOYIM into the ranks of our livestock cattle.
