PROTOCOLS OF THE MEETINGS OF THE LEARNED ELDERS OF
ZION

This document is the original translation from a hundred
years ago. One of our listeners has translated the Protocols
into modern English, which makes it easier to understand.

The Protocols is also available in Spanish at http://www.aztlan.net/protocolos.htm.

1. The Basic Doctrine

Putting aside fine phrases we shall speak of the significance
of each thought: by comparisons and deductions we shall throw light upon
surrounding facts.

What I am about to set forth, then, is our system from the two
points of view, that of ourselves and that of the GOYIM [i.e.,
non-Jews].

It must be noted that men with bad instincts are more in
number than the good, and therefore the best results in governing them
are attained by violence and terrorisation, and not by academic
discussions.

Every man aims at power, everyone would like to
become a dictator if only he could, and rare indeed are the men who
would not be willing to sacrifice the welfare of all for the sake of
securing their own welfare.

What has restrained the beasts of prey who are called men?
What has served for their guidance hitherto?

In the beginnings of the structure of society, they were
subjected to brutal and blind force; after words - to Law, which is the
same force, only disguised. I draw the conclusion that by the law of
nature right lies in force.

Political freedom is an idea but not a fact. This
idea one must know how to apply whenever it appears necessary with this
bait of an idea to attract the masses of the people to one's party for
the purpose of crushing another who is in authority.

This task
is rendered easier of the opponent has himself been infected with the
idea of freedom, SO-CALLED LIBERALISM, and, for the sake of an idea, is
willing to yield some of his power.

It is precisely here that
the triumph of our theory appears; the slackened reins of government are
immediately, by the law of life, caught up and gathered together by a
new hand, because the blind might of the nation cannot for one single
day exist without guidance, and the new authority merely fits into the
place of the old already weakened by
liberalism.

GOLD

In our day the power which has replaced that of the rulers who
were liberal is the power of Gold. Time was when Faith ruled. The idea
of freedom is impossible of realization because no one knows how to use
it with moderation.

It is enough to hand over a people to
self-government for a certain length of time for that people to be
turned into a disorganized mob. From that moment on we get internecine
strife which soon develops into battles between classes, in the midst of
which States burn down and their importance is reduced to that of a heap
of ashes.

Whether a State exhausts itself in its own convulsions,
whether its internal discord brings it under the power of external foes
- in any case it can be accounted irretrievable lost: IT IS IN OUR
POWER.

The despotism of Capital, which is entirely in our hands,
reaches out to it a straw that the State, willy-nilly, must take hold
of: if not - it goes to the bottom.

Should anyone of a liberal mind say that such reflections as
the above are immoral, I would put the following questions: If every
State has two foes and if in regard to the external foe it is allowed
and not considered immoral to use every manner and art of conflict, as
for example to keep the enemy in ignorance of plans of attack and
defense, to attack him by night or in superior numbers, then in what way
can the same means in regard to a worse foe, the destroyer of the
structure of society and the commonweal, be called immoral and not
permissible?

Is it possible for any sound logical mind to hope with any
success to guide crowds by the aid of reasonable counsels and arguments,
when any objection or contradiction, senseless though it may be, can be
made and when such objection may find more favor with the people, whose
powers of reasoning are superficial?

Men in masses and the men of
the masses, being guided solely by petty passions, paltry beliefs,
traditions and sentimental theorems, fall a prey to party dissension,
which hinders any kind of agreement even on the basis of a perfectly
reasonable argument.

Every resolution of a crowd depends upon a
chance or packed majority, which, in its ignorance of political secrets,
puts forth some ridiculous resolution that lays in the administration a
seed of anarchy.

The political has nothing in common with the moral. The ruler
who is governed by the moral is not a skilled politician, and is
therefore unstable on his throne. He who wishes to rule must have
recourse both to cunning and to make-believe.

Great national
qualities, like frankness and honesty, are vices in politics, for they
bring down rulers from their thrones more effectively and more certainly
than the most powerful enemy. Such qualities must be the attributes of
the kingdoms of the GOYIM, but we must in no wise be guided by
them.

MIGHT IS RIGHT

Our right lies in force. The word "right" is an abstract
thought and proved by nothing. The word means no more than: Give me what
I want in order that thereby I may have a proof that I am stronger than
you.

Where does right begin? Where does it end?

In any State in which there is a bad organization of
authority, an impersonality of laws and of the rulers who have lost
their personality amid the flood of rights ever multiplying out of
liberalism, I find a new right - to attack by the right of the strong,
and to scatter to the winds all existing forces of order and regulation,
to reconstruct all institutions and to become the sovereign lord of
those who have left to us the rights of their power by laying them down
voluntarily in their liberalism.

Our power in the present tottering condition of all forms of
power will be more invincible than any other, because it will remain
invisible until the moment when it has gained such strength that no
cunning can any longer undermine it.

Out of the temporary evil we are now compelled to commit will
emerge the good of an unshakable rule, which will restore the regular
course of the machinery of the national life, brought to naught by
liberalism.

The result justifies the means. Let us, however, in
our plans, direct our attention not so much to what is good and moral as
to what is necessary and useful.

Before us is a plan in which is laid down strategically the
line from which we cannot deviate without running the risk of seeing the
labor of many centuries brought to naught.

In order to elaborate satisfactory forms of action it is
necessary to have regard to the rascality, the slackness, the
instability of the mob, its lack of capacity to understand and respect
the conditions of its own life, or its own welfare.

It must be
understood that the might of a mob is blind, senseless and unreasoning
force ever at the mercy of a suggestion from any side.

The blind
cannot lead the blind without bringing them into the abyss;
consequently, members of the mob, upstarts from the people even though
they should be as a genius for wisdom, yet having no understanding of
the political, cannot come forward as leaders of the mob without
bringing the whole nation to ruin.

Only one trained from childhood for independent rule can have
understanding of the words that can be made up of the political
alphabet.

A people left to itself, i.e., to upstarts from its midst,
brings itself to ruin by party dissensions excited by the pursuit of
power and honors and the disorders arising therefrom. Is it possible for
the masses of the people calmly and without petty jealousies to form
judgment, to deal with the affairs of the country, which cannot be mixed
up with personal interest?

Can they defend themselves from an
external foe? It is unthinkable; for a plan broken up into as many parts
as there are heads in the mob, loses all homogeneity, and thereby
becomes unintelligible and impossible of execution.

WE
ARE DESPOTS

It is only with a despotic ruler that plans can be elaborated
extensively and clearly in such a way as to distribute the whole
properly among the several parts of the machinery of the State: from
this the conclusion is inevitable that a satisfactory form of government
for any country is one that concentrates in the hands of one responsible
person.

Without an absolute despotism there can be no existence
for civilization which is carried on not by the masses but by their
guide, whosoever that person may be. The mob is savage, and displays its
savagery at every opportunity.

The moment the mob seizes freedom
in its hands it quickly turns to anarchy, which in itself is the highest
degree of savagery.

Behold the alcoholic animals, bemused with drink, the right to
an immoderate use of which comes along with freedom. It is not for us
and ours to walk that road.

The peoples of the GOYIM are bemused
with alcoholic liquors; their youth has grown stupid on classicism and
from early immorality, into which it has been inducted by our special
agents - by tutors, lackeys, governesses in the houses of the wealthy,
by clerks and others, by our women in the places of dissipation
frequented by the GOYIM.

In the number of these last I count
also the so-called "society ladies," voluntary followers of the others
in corruption and luxury.

Our countersign is - Force and Make-believe. Only force
conquers in political affairs, especially if it be concealed in the
talents essential to statesmen.

Violence must be the principle,
and cunning and make-believe the rule for governments which do not want
to lay down their crowns at the feet of agents of some new power. This
evil is the one and only means to attain the end, the good. Therefore we
must not stop at bribery, deceit and treachery when they should serve
towards the attainment of our end.

In politics one must know how
to seize the property of others without hesitation if by it we secure
submission and sovereignty.

Our State, marching along the path of peaceful conquest, has
the right to replace the horrors of war by less noticeable and more
satisfactory sentences of death, necessary to maintain the terror which
tends to produce blind submission.

Just but merciless severity
is the greatest factor of strength in the State: not only for the sake
of gain but also in the name of duty, for the sake of victory, we must
keep to the programme of violence and make-believe.

The doctrine
of squaring accounts is precisely as strong as the means of which it
makes use. Therefore it is not so much by the means themselves as by the
doctrine of severity that we shall triumph and bring all governments
into subjection to our super-government. It is enough for them to know
that we are too merciless for all disobedience to
cease.

WE SHALL END LIBERTY

Far back in ancient times we were the first to cry among the
masses of the people the words "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity," words
many times repeated since these days by stupid poll-parrots who, from
all sides around, flew down upon these baits and with them carried away
the well-being of the world, true freedom of the individual, formerly so
well guarded against the pressure of the mob.

The would-be wise
men of the GOYIM, the intellectuals, could not make anything out of the
uttered words in their abstractedness; did not see that in nature there
is no equality, cannot be freedom: that Nature herself has established
inequality of minds, of characters, and capacities, just as immutably as
she has established subordination to her laws: never stopped to think
that the mob is a blind thing, that upstarts elected from among it to
bear rule are, in regard to the political, the same blind men as the mob
itself, that the adept, though he be a fool, can yet rule, whereas the
non-adept, even if he were a genius, understands nothing in the
political - to all those things the GOYIM paid no regard.

Yet
all the time it was based upon these things that dynastic rule rested:
the father passed on to the son a knowledge of the course of political
affairs in such wise that none should know it but members of the dynasty
and none could betray it to the governed.

As time went on, the
meaning of the dynastic transference of the true position of affairs in
the political was lost, and this aided the success of our cause.

In all corners of the earth the words "Liberty, Equality,
Fraternity," brought to our ranks, thanks to our blind agents, whole
legions who bore our banners with enthusiasm.

And all the time
these words were canker-worms at work boring into the well-being of the
GOYIM, putting an end everywhere to peace, quiet, solidarity and
destroying all the foundations of the GOYA States.

As you will
see later, this helped us to our triumph: it gave us the possibility,
among other things, of getting into our hands the master card - the
destruction of the privileges, or in other words of the very existence
of the aristocracy of the GOYIM, that class which was the only defense
peoples and countries had against us.

On the ruins of the
eternal and genealogical aristocracy of the GOYIM we have set up the
aristocracy of our educated class headed by the aristocracy of money.

The qualifications for this aristocracy we have established in
wealth, which is dependent upon us, and in knowledge, for which our
learned elders provide the motive force.

Our triumph has been rendered easier by the fact that in our
relations with the men, whom we wanted, we have always worked upon the
most sensitive chords of the human mind, upon the cash account, upon the
cupidity, upon the insatiability for material needs of man; and each one
of these human weaknesses, taken alone, is sufficient to paralyze
initiative, for it hands over the will of men to the disposition of him
who has bought their activities.

The abstraction of freedom has enabled us to persuade the mob
in all countries that their government is nothing but the steward of the
people who are the owners of the country, and that the steward may be
replaced like a worn-out glove.

It is this possibility of replacing the representatives of the
people which has placed at our disposal, and, as it were, given us the
power of appointment.

2. Economic Wars

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.

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 knowledge 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

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.

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.

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.

3. Methods of Conquest

Today I may tell you that our goal is now only a few
steps off. There remains a small space to cross and the whole long path
we have trodden is ready now to close its cycle of the Symbolic Snake,
by which we symbolize our people. When this ring closes, all the States
of Europe will be locked in its coil as in a powerful
vice.

The constitution scales of these days will shortly
break down, for we have established them with a certain lack of accurate
balance in order that they may oscillate incessantly until they wear
through the pivot on which they turn.

The GOYIM are under the
impression that they have welded them sufficiently strong and they have
all along kept on expecting that the scales would come into equilibrium.
But the pivots - the kings on their thrones - are hemmed in by their
representatives, who play the fool, distraught with their own
uncontrolled and irresponsible power.

This power they owe to the
terror which has been breathed into the palaces. As they have no means
of getting at their people, into their very midst, the kings on their
thrones are no longer able to come to terms with them and so strengthen
themselves against seekers after power.

We have made a gulf
between the far-seeing Sovereign Power and the blind force of the people
so that both have lost all meaning, for like the blind man and his
stick, both are powerless apart.

In order to incite seekers after power to a misuse
of power we have set all forces in opposition one to another, breaking
up their liberal tendencies towards independence.

To this end we
have stirred up every form of enterprise, we have armed all parties, we
have set up authority as a target for every ambition.

Of States
we have made gladiatorial arenas where a lot of confused issues contend
.... A little more, and disorders and bankruptcy will be universal
....

Babblers, inexhaustible, have turned into
oratorical contests the sittings of Parliament and Administrative
Boards. Bold journalists and unscrupulous pamphleteers daily fall upon
executive officials.

Abuses of power will put the final touch in
preparing all institutions for their overthrow and everything will fly
skyward under the blows of the maddened mob.

POVERTY OUR
WEAPON

All people are chained down to heavy toil by
poverty more firmly than ever. They were chained by slavery and serfdom;
from these, one way and another, they might free themselves. These could
be settled with, but from want they will never get away.

We have
included in the constitution such rights as to the masses appear
fictitious and not actual rights. All these so-called "Peoples Rights"
can exist only in idea, an idea which can never be realized in practical
life.

What is it to the proletariat laborer, bowed double over
his heavy toil, crushed by his lot in life, if talkers get the right to
babble, if journalists get the right to scribble any nonsense side by
side with good stuff, once the proletariat has no other profit out of
the constitution save only those pitiful crumbs which we fling them from
our table in return for their voting in favor of what we dictate, in
favor of the men we place in power, the servants of our AGENTUR
...

Republican rights for a poor man are no more than a bitter
piece of irony, for the necessity he is under of toiling almost all day
gives him no present use of them, but the other hand robs him of all
guarantee of regular and certain earnings by making him dependent on
strikes by his comrades or lockouts by his masters.

WE
SUPPORT COMMUNISM

The people, under our guidance, have annihilated
the aristocracy, who were their one and only defense and foster-mother
for the sake of their own advantage which is inseparably bound up with
the well-being of the people.

Nowadays, with the destruction of
the aristocracy, the people have fallen into the grips of merciless
money-grinding scoundrels who have laid a pitiless and cruel yoke upon
the necks of the workers.

We appear on the scene as alleged saviours of the
worker from this oppression when we propose to him to enter the ranks of
our fighting forces - Socialists, Anarchists, Communists - to whom we
always give support in accordance with an alleged brotherly rule (of the
solidarity of all humanity) of our SOCIAL MASONRY.

The
aristocracy, which enjoyed by law the labor of the workers, was
interested in seeing that the workers were well fed, healthy, and
strong. We are interested in just the opposite - in the diminution, the
KILLING OUT OF THE GOYIM.

Our power is in the chronic shortness
of food and physical weakness of the worker because by all that this
implies he is made the slave of our will, and he will not find in his
own authorities either strength or energy to set against our will.
Hunger creates the right of capital to rule the worker more surely than
it was given to the aristocracy by the legal authority of
kings.

By want and the envy and hatred which it engenders
we shall move the mobs and with their hands we shall wipe out all those
who hinder us on our way.

WHEN THE HOUR STRIKES FOR OUR SOVEREIGN LORD OF
ALL THE WORLD TO BE CROWNED IT IS THESE SAME HANDS WHICH WILL SWEEP AWAY
EVERYTHING THAT MIGHT BE A HINDRANCE THERETO.

The GOYIM have lost the habit of thinking unless
prompted by the suggestions of our specialists. Therefore they do not
see the urgent necessity of what we, when our kingdom comes, shall adopt
at once, namely this, that IT IS ESSENTIAL TO TEACH IN NATIONAL SCHOOLS
ONE SIMPLE, TRUE PIECE OF KNOWLEDGE, THE BASIS OF ALL KNOWLEDGE - THE
KNOWLEDGE OF THE STRUCTURE OF HUMAN LIFE, OF SOCIAL EXISTENCE, WHICH
REQUIRES DIVISION OF LABOR, AND, CONSEQUENTLY, THE DIVISION OF MEN INTO
CLASSES AND CONDITIONS.

It is essential for all to know that
OWING TO DIFFERENCE IN THE OBJECTS OF HUMAN ACTIVITY THERE CANNOT BE ANY
EQUALITY, that he, who by any act of his compromises a whole class,
cannot be equally responsible before the law with him who affects no one
but only his own honor.

The true knowledge of the structure of
society, into the secrets of which we do not admit the GOYIM, would
demonstrate to all men that the positions and work must be kept within a
certain circle, that they may not become a source of human suffering,
arising from an education which does not correspond with the work which
individuals are called upon to do.

After a thorough study of this
knowledge, the peoples will voluntarily submit to authority and accept
such position as is appointed them in the State.

In the present
state of knowledge and the direction we have given to its development of
the people, blindly believing things in print - cherishes - thanks to
promptings intended to mislead and to its own ignorance - a blind hatred
towards all conditions which it considers above itself, for it has no
understanding of the meaning of class and condition.

JEWS
WILL BE SAFE

THIS HATRED WILL BE STILL FURTHER MAGNIFIED BY THE
EFFECTS of an ECONOMIC CRISES, which will stop dealing on the exchanges
and bring industry to a standstill.

We shall create by all the
secret subterranean methods open to us and with the aid of gold, which
is all in our hands, A UNIVERSAL ECONOMIC CRISES WHEREBY WE SHALL THROW
UPON THE STREETS WHOLE MOBS OF WORKERS SIMULTANEOUSLY IN ALL THE
COUNTRIES OF EUROPE.

These mobs will rush delightedly to shed the
blood of those whom, in the simplicity of their ignorance, they have
envied from their cradles, and whose property they will then be able to
loot.

"OURS" THEY WILL NOT TOUCH, BECAUSE THE MOMENT OF
ATTACK WILL BE KNOWN TO US AND WE SHALL TAKE MEASURES TO PROTECT OUR
OWN.

We have demonstrated that progress will bring all
the GOYIM to the sovereignty of reason. Our despotism will be precisely
that; for it will know how, by wise severities, to pacificate all
unrest, to cauterize liberalism out of all
institutions.

When the populace has seen that all sorts of
concessions and indulgences are yielded it, in the same name of freedom
it has imagined itself to be sovereign lord and has stormed its way to
power, but, naturally like every other blind man, it has come upon a
host of stumbling blocks.

IT HAS RUSHED TO FIND A GUIDE, IT HAS
NEVER HAD THE SENSE TO RETURN TO THE FORMER STATE and it has laid down
its plenipotentiary powers at OUR feet. Remember the French Revolution,
to which it was we who gave the name of "Great": the secrets of its
preparations are well known to us for it was wholly the work of our
hands.

Ever since that time we have been leading the
peoples from one disenchantment to another, so that in the end they
should turn also from us in favor of that KING-DESPOT OF THE BLOOD OF
ZION, WHOM WE ARE PREPARING FOR THE WORLD.

At the present day we are, as an international
force, invincible, because if attacked by some we are supported by other
States.

It is the bottomless rascality of the GOYIM peoples, who
crawl on their bellies to force, but are merciless towards weakness,
unsparing to faults and indulgent to crimes, unwilling to bear the
contradictions of a free social system but patient unto martyrdom under
the violence of a bold despotism - it is those qualities which are
aiding us to independence.

From the premier-dictators of the
present day, the GOYIM peoples suffer patiently and bear such abuses as
for the least of them they would have beheaded twenty
kings.

What is the explanation of this phenomenon, this
curious inconsequence of the masses of the peoples in their attitude
towards what would appear to be events of the same
order?

It is explained by the fact that these dictators
whisper to the peoples through their agents that through these abuses
they are inflicting injury on the States with the highest purpose - to
secure the welfare of the peoples, the international brotherhood of them
all, their solidarity and equality of rights. Naturally they do not tell
the peoples that this unification must be accomplished only under our
sovereign rule.

And thus the people condemn the upright and acquit
the guilty, persuaded ever more and more that it can do whatsoever it
wishes. Thanks to this state of things, the people are destroying every
kind of stability and creating disorders at every
step.

The word "freedom" brings out the communities of
men to fight against every kind of force, against every kind of
authority even against God and the laws of nature.

For this
reason we, when we come into our kingdom, shall have to erase this word
from the lexicon of life as implying a principle of brute force which
turns mobs into bloodthirsty beasts.

These beasts, it is true, fall asleep again every
time when they have drunk their fill of blood, and at such time can
easily be riveted into their chains. But if they be not given blood they
will not sleep and continue to struggle

4. Materialism Replace Religion

Every republic passes through several stages. The first of
these is comprised in the early days of mad raging by the blind mob,
tossed hither and thither, right and left: the second is demagogy from
which is born anarchy, and that leads inevitably to despotism - not any
longer legal and overt, and therefore responsible despotism, but to
unseen and secretly hidden, yet nevertheless sensibly felt despotism in
the hands of some secret organization or other, whose acts are the more
unscrupulous inasmuch as it works behind a screen, behind the backs of
all sorts of agents, the changing of whom not only does not injuriously
affect but actually aids the secret force by saving it, thanks to
continual changes, from the necessity of expanding its resources on the
rewarding of long services.

Who and what is in a position to overthrow an invisible force?
And this is precisely what our force is. GENTILE masonry blindly serves
as a screen for us and our objects, but the plan of action of our force,
even its very abiding-place, remains for the whole people an unknown
mystery.

WE SHALL DESTROY GOD

But even freedom might be harmless and have its place in the
State economy without injury to the well-being of the peoples if it
rested upon the foundation of faith in God, upon the brotherhood of
humanity, unconnected with the conception of equality, which is
negatived by the very laws of creation, for they have established
subordination.

With such a faith as this a people might be
governed by a wardship of parishes, and would walk contentedly and
humbly under the guiding hand of its spiritual pastor submitting to the
dispositions of God upon earth.

This is the reason why IT IS
INDISPENSABLE FOR US TO UNDERMINE ALL FAITH, TO TEAR OUT OF THE MIND OF
THE "GOYIM" THE VERY PRINCIPLE OF GOD-HEAD AND THE SPIRIT, AND TO PUT IN
ITS PLACE ARITHMETICAL CALCULATIONS AND MATERIAL NEEDS.

In order to give the GOYIM no time to think and take note,
their minds must be diverted towards industry and trade. Thus, all the
nations will be swallowed up in the pursuit of gain and in the race for
it will not take note of their common foe.

But again, in order
that freedom may once for all disintegrate and ruin the communities of
the GOYIM, we must put industry on a speculative basis: the result of
this will be that what is withdrawn from the land by industry will slip
through the hands and pass into speculation, that is, to our
classes.

The intensified struggle for superiority and shocks delivered
to economic life will create, nay, have already created, disenchanted,
cold and heartless communities.

Such communities will foster a
strong aversion towards the higher political and towards religion. Their
only guide is gain, that is Gold, which they will erect into a veritable
cult, for the sake of those material delights which it can
give.

Then will the hour strike when, not for the sake of
attaining the good, not even to win wealth, but solely out of hatred
towards the privileged, the lower classes of the GOYIM will follow our
lead against our rivals for power, the intellectuals of the
GOYIM.

5. Despotism and Modern Progress

What form of administrative rule can be given to communities
in which corruption has penetrated everywhere, communities where riches
are attained only by the clever surprise tactics of semi-swindling
tricks; where looseness reigns: where morality is maintained by penal
measures and harsh laws but not by voluntarily accepted principles:
where the feelings towards faith and country are obligated by
cosmopolitan convictions?

What form of rule is to be given to
these communities if not that despotism which I shall describe to you
later? We shall create an intensified centralization of government in
order to grip in our hands all the forces of the community.

We
shall regulate mechanically all the actions of the political life of our
subjects by new laws.

These laws will withdraw one by one all the
indulgences and liberties which have been permitted by the GOYIM, and
our kingdom will be distinguished by a despotism of such magnificent
proportions as to be at any moment and in every place in a position to
wipe out any GOYIM who oppose us by deed or word.

We shall be told that such a despotism as I speak of is not
consistent with the progress of these days, but I will prove to you that
is is.

In the times when the peoples looked upon kings on their
thrones as on a pure manifestation of the will of God, they submitted
without a murmur to the despotic power of kings: but from the day when
we insinuated into their minds the conception of their own rights they
began to regard the occupants of thrones as mere ordinary
mortals.

The holy unction of the Lord's Anointed has fallen from
the heads of kings in the eyes of the people, and when we also robbed
them of their faith in God the might of power was flung upon the streets
into the place of public proprietorship and was seized by
us.

MASSES LED BY LIES

Moreover, the art of directing masses and individuals by means
of cleverly manipulated theory and verbitage, by regulations of life in
common and all sorts of other quirks, in all which the GOYIM understand
nothing, belongs likewise to the specialists of our administrative
brain.

Reared on analysis, observation, on delicacies of fine
calculation, in this species of skill we have no rivals, any more than
we have either in the drawing up of plans of political actions and
solidarity. In this respect the Jesuits alone might have compared with
us, but we have contrived to discredit them in the eyes of the
unthinking mob as an overt organization, while we ourselves all the
while have kept our secret organization in the shade.

However, it
is probably all the same to the world who is its sovereign lord, whether
the head of Catholicism or our despot of the blood of Zion!

But
to us, the Chosen People, it is very far from being a matter of
indifference.

FOR A TIME PERHAPS WE MIGHT BE SUCCESSFULLY DEALT WITH BY A
COALITION OF THE "GOYIM" OF ALL THE WORLD: but from this danger we are
secured by the discord existing among them whose roots are so deeply
seated that they can never now be plucked up.

We have set one
against another the personal and national reckonings of the GOYIM,
religious and race hatreds, which we have fostered into a huge growth in
the course of the past twenty centuries.

This is the reason why
there is not one State which would anywhere receive support if it were
to raise its arm, for every one of them must bear in mind that any
agreement against us would be unprofitable to itself. We are too strong
- there is no evading our power.

THE NATIONS CANNOT COME TO EVEN
AN INCONSIDERABLE PRIVATE AGREEMENT WITHOUT OUR SECRETLY HAVING A HAND
IN IT.

PER ME REGES REGNANT. "It is through me that Kings reign." And
it was said by the prophets that we were chosen by God Himself to rule
over the whole earth. God has endowed us with genius that we may be
equal to our task.

Were genius in the opposite camp it would
still struggle against us, but even so, a newcomer is no match for the
old-established settler: the struggle would be merciless between us,
such a fight as the world has never seen.

Aye, and the genius on
their side would have arrived too late. All the wheels of the machinery
of all States go by the force of the engine, which is in our hands, and
that engine of the machinery of States is - Gold.

The science of
political economy invented by our learned elders has for long past been
giving royal prestige to capital.

MONOPOLY
CAPITAL

Capital, if it is to co-operate untrammeled, must be free to
establish a monopoly of industry and trade: this is already being put in
execution by an unseen hand in all quarters of the world.

This
freedom will give political force to those engaged in industry, and that
will help to oppress the people. Nowadays it is more important to disarm
the peoples than to lead them into war: more important to use for our
advantage the passions which have burst into flames than to quench their
fire: more important to eradicate them.

THE PRINCIPLE OBJECT OF
OUR DIRECTORATE CONSISTS IN THIS: TO DEBILITATE THE PUBLIC MIND BY
CRITICISM; TO LEAD IT AWAY FROM SERIOUS REFLECTIONS CALCULATED TO AROUSE
RESISTANCE; TO DISTRACT THE FORCES OF THE MIND TOWARDS A SHAM FIGHT OF
EMPTY ELOQUENCE.

In all ages the people of the world, equally with individuals,
have accepted words for deeds, for THEY ARE CONTENT WITH A SHOW and
rarely pause to note, in the public arena, whether promises are followed
by performance.

Therefore we shall establish show institutions
which will give eloquent proof of their benefit to
progress.

We shall assume to ourselves the liberal physiognomy of all
parties, of all directions, and we shall give that physiognomy a VOICE
IN ORATORS WHO WILL SPEAK SO MUCH THAT THEY WILL EXHAUST THE PATIENCE OF
THEIR HEARERS AND PRODUCE AN ABHORRENCE OF ORATORY.

IN ORDER TO PUT PUBLIC OPINION INTO OUR HANDS WE MUST BRING IT
INTO A STATE OF BEWILDERMENT BY GIVING EXPRESSION FROM ALL SIDES TO SO
MANY CONTRADICTORY OPINIONS AND FOR SUCH LENGTH OF TIME AS WILL SUFFICE
TO MAKE THE "GOYIM" LOSE THEIR HEADS IN THE LABYRINTH AND COME TO SEE
THAT THE BEST THING IS TO HAVE NO OPINION OF ANY KIND IN MATTERS
POLITICAL, which it is not given to the public to understand, because
they are understood only by him who guides the public. This is the first
secret.

The second secret requisite for the success of our government
is comprised in the following: To multiply to such an extent national
failings, habits, passions, conditions of civil life, that it will be
impossible for anyone to know where he is in the resulting chaos, so
that the people in consequence will fail to understand one
another.

This measure will also serve us in another way, namely,
to sow discord in all parties, to dislocate all collective forces which
are still unwilling to submit to us, and to discourage any kind of
personal initiative which might in any degree hinder our affair. THERE
IS NOTHING MORE DANGEROUS THAN PERSONAL INITIATIVE: if it has genius
behind it, such initiative can do more than can be done by millions of
people among whom we have sown discord.

We must so direct the
education of the GOYIM communities that whenever they come upon a matter
requiring initiative they may drop their hands in despairing impotence.
The strain which results from freedom of actions saps the forces when it
meets with the freedom of another.

From this collision arise
grave moral shocks, disenchantments, failures. BY ALL THESE MEANS WE
SHALL SO WEAR DOWN THE "GOYIM" THAT THEY WILL BE COMPELLED TO OFFER US
INTERNATIONAL POWER OF A NATURE THAT BY ITS POSITION WILL ENABLE US
WITHOUT ANY VIOLENCE GRADUALLY TO ABSORB ALL THE STATE FORCES OF THE
WORLD AND TO FORM A SUPER-GOVERNMENT.

In place of the rulers of
to-day we shall set up a bogey which will be called the Super-Government
Administration. Its hands will reach out in all directions like nippers
and its organization will be of such colossal dimensions that it cannot
fail to subdue all the nations of the world.

Contents

6. Take-Over Technique

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 ...

You gentlemen here present who are economists, just strike an
estimate of the significance of this combination! ...

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.

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 unconditional submission.

The aristocrats of the GOYIM, being hereditarily incapable of
contenting themselves with little, will rapidly burn up and fizzle
out.

WE SHALL ENSLAVE GENTILES

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.

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."

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

Contents

7. World-Wide Wars

The intensification of armaments, the increase of
police forces - are all essential for the completion of the
aforementioned plans.

What we have to get at is that there should
be in all the States of the world, besides ourselves, only the masses of
the proletariat, a few millionaires devoted to our interests, police and
soldiers.

Throughout all Europe, and by means of relations
with Europe, in other continents also, we must create ferments, discords
and hostility.

Therein we gain a double advantage. In the first
place we keep in check all countries, for they will know that we have
the power whenever we like to create disorders or to restore order. All
these countries are accustomed to see in us an indispensable force of
coercion.

In the second place, by our intrigues we shall tangle
up all the threads which we have stretched into the cabinets of all
States by means of the political, by economic treaties, or loan
obligations. In order to succeed in this we must use great cunning and
penetration during negotiations and agreements, but, as regards what is
called the "official language," we shall keep to the opposite tactics
and assume the mask of honesty and complacency.

In this way the
peoples and governments of the GOYIM, whom we have taught to look only
at the outside whatever we present to their notice, will still continue
to accept us as the benefactors and saviours of the human
race.

UNIVERSAL WAR

We must be in a position to respond to every act
of opposition by war with the neighbors of that country which dares to
oppose us: but if these neighbors should also venture to stand
collectively together against us, then we must offer resistance by a
universal war.

The principal factor of success in the political
is the secrecy of its undertakings: the word should not agree with the
deeds of the diplomat.

We must compel the governments of the GOYIM to
take action in the direction favored by our widely conceived plan,
already approaching the desired consummation, by what we shall represent
as public opinion, secretly promoted by us through the means of that
so-called "Great Power" - THE PRESS, WHICH, WITH A FEW EXCEPTIONS THAT
MAY BE DISREGARDED, IS ALREADY ENTIRELY IN OUR HANDS.

In a word,
to sum up our system of keeping the governments of the goyim in Europe
in check, we shall show our strength to one of them by terrorist
attempts and to all, if we allow the possibility of a general rising
against us, we shall respond with the guns of America or China or
Japan.

Contents

8. Provisional Government

We must arm ourselves with all the weapons which our opponents
might employ against us.

We must search out in the very finest
shades of expression and the knotty points of the lexicon of law
justification for those cases where we shall have to pronounce judgments
that might appear abnormally audacious and unjust, for it is important
that these resolutions should be set forth in expressions that shall
seem to be the most exalted moral principles cast into legal
form.

Our directorate must surround itself with all these forces
of civilization among which it will have to work. It will surround
itself with publicists, practical jurists, administrators, diplomats
and, finally, with persons prepared by a special super-educational
training IN OUR SPECIAL SCHOOLS.

These persons will have
consonance of all the secrets of the social structure, they will know
all the languages that can be made up by political alphabets and words;
they will be made acquainted with the whole underside of human nature,
with all its sensitive chords on which they will have to
play.

These chords are the cast of mind of the GOYIM, their
tendencies, short-comings, vices and qualities, the particularities of
classes and conditions. Needless to say that the talented assistants of
authority, of whom I speak, will be taken not from among the GOYIM, who
are accustomed to perform their administrative work without giving
themselves the trouble to think what its aim is, and never consider what
it is needed for.

The administrators of the GOYIM sign papers
without reading them, and they serve either for mercenary reasons or
from ambition.

We shall surround our government with a whole world of
economists. That is the reason why economic sciences form the principal
subject of the teaching given to the Jews.

Around us again will
be a whole constellation of bankers, industrialists, capitalists and -
THE MAIN THING - MILLIONAIRES, BECAUSE IN SUBSTANCE EVERYTHING WILL BE
SETTLED BY THE QUESTION OF FIGURES.

For a time, until there will no longer be any risk
in entrusting responsible posts in our State to our brother-Jews, we
shall put them in the hands of persons whose past and reputation are
such that between them and the people lies an abyss, persons who, in
case of disobedience to our instructions, must face criminal charges or
disappear - this in order to make them defend our interests to their
last gasp

9. Re-education

In applying our principles let attention be paid to the
character of the people in whose country you live and act; a general,
identical application of them, until such time as the people shall have
been re-educated to our pattern, cannot have success.

But by
approaching their application cautiously you will see that not a decade
will pass before the most stubborn character will change and we shall
add a new people to the ranks of those already subdued by
us.

The words of the liberal, which are in effect the words of our
masonic watchword, namely, "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity," will, when
we come into our kingdom, be changed by us into words no longer of a
watchword, but only an expression of idealism, namely, into "The right
of liberty, the duty of equality, the ideal of brotherhood."

That
is how we shall put it, - and so we shall catch the bull by the horns
... DE FACTO we have already wiped out every kind of rule except our
own, although DE JURE there still remain a good many of
them.

Nowadays, if any States raise a protest against us it is
only PRO FORMA at our discretion and by our direction, for THEIR
ANTI-SEMITISM IS INDISPENSABLE TO US FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF OUR LESSER
BRETHREN.

I will not enter into further explanations, for this
matter has formed the subject of repeated discussions amongst
us.

JEWISH SUPER-STATE

For us there are not checks to limit the range of our
activity. Our Super-Government subsists in extra-legal conditions which
are described in the accepted terminology by the energetic and forcible
word - Dictatorship.

I am in a position to tell you with a clear
conscience that at the proper time we, the law-givers, shall execute
judgment and sentence, we shall slay and we shall spare, we, as head of
all our troops, are mounted on the steed of the leader. We rule by force
of will, because in our hands are the fragments of a once powerful
party, now vanquished by us.

AND THE WEAPONS IN OUR HANDS ARE
LIMITLESS AMBITIONS, BURNING GREEDINESS, MERCILESS VENGEANCE, HATREDS
AND MALICE.

IT IS FROM US THAT THE ALL-ENGULFING TERROR PROCEEDS. WE HAVE
IN OUR SERVICE PERSONS OF ALL OPINIONS, OF ALL DOCTRINES, RESTORATING
MONARCHISTS, DEMAGOGUES, SOCIALISTS, COMMUNISTS, AND UTOPIAN DREAMERS OF
EVERY KIND.

We have harnessed them all to the task: EACH ONE OF
THEM ON HIS OWN ACCOUNT IS BORING AWAY AT THE LAST REMNANTS OF
AUTHORITY, IS STRIVING TO OVERTHROW ALL ESTABLISHED FORM OF
ORDER.

By these acts all States are in torture; they exhort to
tranquility, are ready to sacrifice everything for peace: BUT WE WILL
NOT GIVE THEM PEACE UNTIL THEY OPENLY ACKNOWLEDGE OUR INTERNATIONAL
SUPER-GOVERNMENT, AND WITH SUBMISSIVENESS.

The people have raised a howl about the necessity of settling
the question of Socialism by way of an international
agreement.

DIVISION INTO FRACTIONAL PARTIES HAS GIVEN THEM INTO
OUR HANDS, FOR, IN ORDER TO CARRY ON A CONTESTED STRUGGLE ONE MUST HAVE
MONEY, AND THE MONEY IS ALL IN OUR HANDS.

We might have reason to apprehend a union between the
"clear-sighted" force of the GOY kings on their thrones and the "blind"
force of the GOY mobs, but we have taken all the needful measure against
any such possibility: between the one and the other force we have
erected a bulwark in the shape of a mutual terror between
them.

In this way the blind force of the people remains our
support and we, and we only, shall provide them with a leader and, of
course, direct them along the road that leads to our
goal.

In order that the hand of the blind mob may not free itself
from our guiding hand, we must every now and then enter into close
communion with it, if not actually in person, at any rate through some
of the most trusty of our brethren.

When we are acknowledged as
the only authority we shall discuss with the people personally on the
market, places, and we shall instruct them on questings of the political
in such wise as may turn them in the direction that suits
us.

Who is going to verify what is taught in the village schools?
But what an envoy of the government or a king on his throne himself may
say cannot but become immediately known to the whole State, for it will
be spread abroad by the voice of the people.

In order to annihilate the institutions of the GOYIM before it
is time we have touched them with craft and delicacy, and have taken
hold of the ends of the springs which move their mechanism.

These
springs lay in a strict but just sense of order; we have replaced them
by the chaotic license of liberalism. We have got our hands into the
administration of the law, into the conduct of elections, into the
press, into liberty of the person, BUT PRINCIPALLY INTO EDUCATION AND
TRAINING AS BEING THE CORNERSTONES OF A FREE
EXISTENCE.

CHRISTIAN YOUTH
DESTROYED

WE HAVE FOOLED, BEMUSED AND CORRUPTED THE YOUTH OF THE "GOYIM"
BY REARING THEM IN PRINCIPLES AND THEORIES WHICH ARE KNOWN TO US TO BE
FALSE ALTHOUGH IT IS THAT THEY HAVE BEEN INCULCATED.

Above the existing laws without substantially altering them,
and by merely twisting them into contradictions of interpretations, we
have erected something grandiose in the way of results.

These
results found expression in the fact that the INTERPRETATIONS MASKED THE
LAW: afterwards they entirely hid them from the eyes of the governments
owing to the impossibility of making anything out of the tangled web of
legislation.

This is the origin of the theory of course of
arbitration.

You may say that the GOYIM will rise upon us, arms in hand, if
they guess what is going on before the time comes; but in the West we
have against this a maneuver of such appalling terror that the very
stoutest hearts quail - the undergrounds, metropolitans, those
subterranean corridors which, before the time comes, will be driven
under all the capitals and from whence those capitals will be blown into
the air with all their organizations and archives.

10. Preparing for Power

Today I begin with a repetition of what I said
before, and I BEG YOU TO BEAR IN MIND THAT GOVERNMENTS AND PEOPLE ARE
CONTENT IN THE POLITICAL WITH OUTSIDE APPEARANCES.

And how,
indeed, are the GOYIM to perceive the underlying meaning of things when
their representatives give the best of their energies to enjoying
themselves? For our policy it is of the greatest importance to take
cognizance of this detail; it will be of assistance to us when we come
to consider the division of authority of property, of the dwelling, of
taxation (the idea of concealed taxes), of the reflex force of the
laws.

All these questions are such as ought not to be touched
upon directly and openly before the people. In cases where it is
indispensable to touch upon them they must not be categorically named,
it must merely be declared without detailed exposition that the
principles of contemporary law are acknowledged by us.

The reason
of keeping silence in this respect is that by not naming a principle we
leave ourselves freedom of action, to drop this or that out of it
without attracting notice; if they were all categorically named they
would all appear to have been already given.

The mob cherishes a special affection and respect for the
geniuses of political power and accepts all their deeds of violence with
the admiring response: "rascally, well, yes, it is rascally, but it's
clever! ... a trick, if you like, but how craftily played, how
magnificently done, what impudent audacity!" ...

OUR GOAL
- WORLD POWER

We count upon attracting all nations to the task of erecting
the new fundamental structure, the project for which has been drawn up
by us.

This is why, before everything, it is indispensable for us
to arm ourselves and to store up in ourselves that absolutely reckless
audacity and irresistible might of the spirit which in the person of our
active workers will break down all hindrances on our
way.

WHEN WE HAVE ACCOMPLISHED OUR COUP D'ETAT WE SHALL SAY THEN TO
THE VARIOUS PEOPLES: "EVERYTHING HAS GONE TERRIBLY BADLY, ALL HAVE BEEN
WORN OUT WITH SUFFERING. WE ARE DESTROYING THE CAUSES OF YOUR TORMENT -
NATIONALITIES, FRONTIERS, DIFFERENCES OF COINAGES. YOU ARE AT LIBERTY,
OF COURSE, TO PRONOUNCE SENTENCE UPON US, BUT CAN IT POSSIBLY BE A JUST
ONE IF IT IS CONFIRMED BY YOU BEFORE YOU MAKE ANY TRIAL OF WHAT WE ARE
OFFERING YOU." ... THEN WILL THE MOB EXALT US AND BEAR US UP IN THEIR
HANDS IN A UNANIMOUS TRIUMPH OF HOPES AND EXPECTATIONS. VOTING, WHICH WE
HAVE MADE THE INSTRUMENT WHICH WILL SET US ON THE THRONE OF THE WORLD BY
TEACHING EVEN THE VERY SMALLEST UNITS OF MEMBERS OF THE HUMAN RACE TO
VOTE BY MEANS OF MEETINGS AND AGREEMENTS BY GROUPS, WILL THEN HAVE
SERVED ITS PURPOSES AND WILL PLAY ITS PART THEN FOR THE LAST TIME BY A
UNANIMITY OF DESIRE TO MAKE CLOSE ACQUAINTANCE WITH US BEFORE CONDEMNING
US.

TO SECURE THIS WE MUST HAVE EVERYBODY VOTE WITHOUT DISTINCTION
OF CLASSES AND QUALIFICATIONS, in order to establish an absolute
majority, which cannot be got from the educated propertied
classes.

In this way, by inculcating in all a sense of
self-importance, we shall destroy among the GOYIM the importance of the
family and its educational value and remove the possibility of
individual minds splitting off, for the mob, handled by us, will not let
them come to the front nor even give them a hearing; it is accustomed to
listen to us only who pay it for obedience and attention.

In this
way we shall create a blind, mighty force which will never be in a
position to move in any direction without the guidance of our agents set
at its head by us as leaders of the mob. The people will submit to this
regime because it will know that upon these leaders will depend its
earnings, gratifications and the receipt of all kinds of
benefits.

A scheme of government should come ready made from one brain,
because it will never be clinched firmly if it is allowed to be split
into fractional parts in the minds of many.

It is allowable,
therefore, for us to have cognizance of the scheme of action but not to
discuss it lest we disturb its artfulness, the interdependence of its
component parts, the practical force of the secret meaning of each
clause.

To discuss and make alterations in a labor of this kind
by means of numerous votings is to impress upon it the stamp of all
ratiocinations and misunderstandings which have failed to penetrate the
depth and nexus of its plotting.

We want our schemes to be
forcible and suitably concocted. Therefore WE OUGHT NOT TO FLING THE
WORK OF GENIUS OF OUR GUIDE to the fangs of the mob or even of a select
company.

These schemes will not turn existing institutions upside down
just yet. They will only effect changes in their economy and
consequently in the whole combined movement of their progress, which
will thus be directed along the paths laid down in our
schemes.

POISON OF
LIBERALISM

Under various names there exists in all countries
approximately one and the same thing. Representation, Ministry, Senate,
State Council, Legislative and Executive Corps.

I need not
explain to you the mechanism of the relation of these institutions to
one another, because you are aware of all that; only take note of the
fact that each of the above-named institutions corresponds to some
important function of the State, and I would beg you to remark that the
word "important" I apply not to the institution but to the function,
consequently it is not the institutions which are important but their
functions.

These institutions have divided up among themselves
all the functions of government - administrative, legislative,
executive, wherefore they have come to operate as do the organs in the
human body.

If we injure one part in the machinery of State, the
State falls sick, like a human body, and ... will die.

When we introduced into the State organism the poison of
Liberalism its whole political complexion underwent a change. States
have been seized with a mortal illness - blood poisoning. All that
remains is to await the end of their death agony.

Liberalism produced Constitutional States, which took the
place of what was the only safeguard of the GOYIM, namely, Despotism;
and A CONSTITUTION, AS YOU WELL KNOW, IS NOTHING ELSE BUT A SCHOOL OF
DISCORDS, misunderstandings, quarrels, disagreements, fruitless party
agitations, party whims - in a word, a school of everything that serves
to destroy the personality of State activity.

THE TRIBUNE OF THE
"TALKERICS" HAS, NO LESS EFFECTIVELY THAN THE PRESS, CONDEMNED THE
RULERS TO INACTIVITY AND IMPOTENCE, and thereby rendered them useless
and superfluous, for which reason indeed they have been in many
countries deposed.

THEN IT WAS THAT THE ERA OF REPUBLICS BECOME
POSSIBLE OF REALIZATION; AND THEN IT WAS THAT WE REPLACED THE RULER BY A
CARICATURE OF A GOVERNMENT - BY A PRESIDENT, TAKEN FROM THE MOB, FROM
THE MIDST OF OUR PUPPET CREATURES, OR SLAVES.

This was the
foundation of the mine which we have laid under the GOY people, I should
rather say, under the GOY peoples.

WE NAME
PRESIDENTS

In the near future we shall establish the responsibility of
presidents.

By that time we shall be in a position to disregard forms in
carrying through matters for which our impersonal puppet will be
responsible.

What do we care if the ranks of those striving for
power should be thinned, if there should arise a deadlock from the
impossibility of finding presidents, a deadlock which will finally
disorganize the country? ...

In order that our scheme may produce this result we shall
arrange elections in favor of such presidents as have in their past some
dark, undiscovered stain, some "Panama" or other - then they will be
trustworthy agents for the accomplishment of our plans out of fear of
revelations and from the natural desire of everyone who has attained
power, namely, the retention of the privileges, advantages and honor
connected with the office of president.

The chamber of deputies
will provide cover for, will protect, will elect presidents, but we
shall take from it the right to propose new, or make changes in existing
laws, for this right will be given by us to the responsible president, a
puppet in our hands.

Naturally, the authority of the presidents
will then become a target for every possible form of attack, but we
shall provide him with a means of self-defense in the right of an appeal
to the people, for the decision of the people over the heads of their
representatives, that is to say, an appeal to that some blind slave of
ours - the majority of the mob.

Independently of this we shall
invest the president with the right of declaring a state of war. We
shall justify this last right on the ground that the president as chief
of the whole army of the country must have it at his disposal, in case
of need for the defense of the new republican constitution, the right to
defend which will belong to him as the responsible representative of
this constitution.

It is easy to understand them in these conditions the key of
the shrine will lie in our hands, and no one outside ourselves will any
longer direct the force of legislation.

Besides this we shall, with the introduction of the new
republican constitution, take from the Chamber the right of
interpolation on government measures, on the pretext of preserving
political secrecy, and, further, we shall by the new constitution reduce
the number of representatives to a minimum, thereby proportionately
reducing political passions and the passion for politics.

If,
however, they should, which is hardly to be expected, burst into flame,
even in this minimum, we shall nullify them by a stirring appeal and a
reference to the majority of the whole people ... Upon the president
will depend the appointment of presidents and vice-presidents of the
Chamber and the Senate.

Instead of constant sessions of
Parliaments we shall reduce their sittings to a few months. Moreover,
the president, as chief of the executive power, will have the right to
summon and dissolve Parliament, and, in the latter case, to prolong the
time for the appointment of a new parliamentary assembly.

But in
order that the consequences of all these acts which in substance are
illegal, should not, prematurely for our plans, upon the responsibility
established by use of the president, WE SHALL INSTIGATE MINISTERS AND
OTHER OFFICIALS OF THE HIGHER ADMINISTRATION ABOUT THE PRESIDENT TO
EVADE HIS DISPOSITIONS BY TAKING MEASURES OF THEIR OWN, for doing which
they will be made the scapegoats in his place ... This part we
especially recommend to be given to be played by the Senate, the Council
of State, or the Council of Ministers, but not to an individual
official.

The president will, at our discretion, interpret the sense of
such of the existing laws as admit of various interpretation; he will
further annul them when we indicate to him the necessity to do so,
besides this, he will have the right to propose temporary laws, and even
new departures in the government constitutional working, the pretext
both for the one and the other being the requirements for the supreme
welfare of the State.

WE SHALL
DESTROY

By such measure we shall obtain the power of destroying little
by little, step by step, all that at the outset when we enter on our
rights, we are compelled to introduce into the constitutions of States
to prepare for the transition to an imperceptible abolition of every
kind of constitution, and then the time is come to turn every form of
government into OUR DESPOTISM.

The recognition of our despot may also come before the
destruction of the constitution; the moment for this recognition will
come when the peoples, utterly wearied by the irregularities and
incompetence - a matter which we shall arrange for - of their rulers,
will clamor:

"Away with them and give us one
king over all the earth who will unite us and annihilate the causes of
disorders - frontiers, nationalities, religions, State debts - who will
give us peace and quiet which we cannot find under our rulers and
representatives."

But you yourselves perfectly well know that TO PRODUCE THE
POSSIBILITY OF THE EXPRESSION OF SUCH WISHES BY ALL THE NATIONS IT IS
INDISPENSABLE TO TROUBLE IN ALL COUNTRIES THE PEOPLE'S RELATIONS WITH
THEIR GOVERNMENTS SO AS TO UTTERLY EXHAUST HUMANITY WITH DISSENSION,
HATRED, STRUGGLE, ENVY AND EVEN BY THE USE OF TORTURE, BY STARVATION, BY
THE INOCULATION OF DISEASES, BY WANT, SO THAT THE "GOYIM" SEE NO OTHER
ISSUE THAN TO TAKE REFUGE IN OUR COMPLETE SOVEREIGNTY IN MONEY AND IN
ALL ELSE.

But if we give the nations of the world a breathing space the
moment we long for is hardly likely ever to arrive.

11. The Totalitarian State

The State Council has been, as it were, the
emphatic expression of the authority of the ruler: it will be, as the
"show" part of the Legislative Corps, what may be called the editorial
committee of the laws and decrees of the ruler.

This, then, is the program of the new
constitution. We shall make Law, Right and Justice (1) in the guise of
proposals to the Legislative Corps, (2) by decrees of the president
under the guise of general regulations, of orders of the Senate and of
resolutions of the State Council in the guise of ministerial orders, (3)
and in case a suitable occasion should arise - in the form of a
revolution in the State.

Having established approximately the MODUS AGENDI
we will occupy ourselves with details of those combinations by which we
have still to complete the revolution in the course of the machinery of
State in the direction already indicated.

By these combinations
I mean the freedom of the Press, the right of association, freedom of
conscience, the voting principle, and many another that must disappear
for ever from the memory of man, or undergo a radical alteration the day
after the promulgation of the new constitution.

It is only at
the moment that we shall be able at once to announce all our orders,
for, afterwards, every noticeable alteration will be dangerous, for the
following reasons: if this alteration be brought in with harsh severity
and in a sense of severity and limitations, it may lead to a feeling of
despair caused by fear of new alterations in the same direction.

If, on the other hand, it be brought in a sense of further
indulgences it will be said that we have recognized our own wrong-doing
and this will destroy the prestige of the infallibility of our
authority, or else it will be said that we have become alarmed and are
compelled to show a yielding disposition, for which we shall get no
thanks because it will be supposed to be compulsory...

Both the
one and the other are injurious to the prestige of the new constitution.
What we want is that from the first moment of its promulgation, while
the peoples of the world are still stunned by the accomplished fact of
the revolution, still in a condition of terror and uncertainty, they
should recognize once for all that we are so strong, so inexpugnable, so
super-abundantly filled with power, that in no case shall we take any
account of them, and so far from paying any attention to their opinions
or wishes, we are ready and able to crush with irresistible power all
expression or manifestation thereof at every moment and in every place,
that we have seized at once everything we wanted and shall in no case
divide our power with them ...

Then in fear and trembling they
will close their eyes to everything, and be content to await what will
be the end of it all.

WE ARE
WOLVES

The GOYIM are a flock of sheep, and we are their
wolves. And you know what happens when the wolves get hold of the flock?
....

There is another reason also why they will close
their eyes: for we shall keep promising them to give back all the
liberties we have taken away as soon as we have quelled the enemies of
peace and tamed all parties ....

It is not worth to say anything about how long a
time they will be kept waiting for this return of their liberties ....

For what purpose then have we invented this whole
policy and insinuated it into the minds of the GOY without giving them
any chance to examine its underlying meaning?
For what, indeed, if
not in order to obtain in a roundabout way what is for our scattered
tribe unattainable by the direct road?

It is this which has
served as the basis for our organization of SECRET MASONRY WHICH IS NOT
KNOWN TO, AND AIMS WHICH ARE NOT EVEN SO MUCH AS SUSPECTED BY, THESE
"GOY" CATTLE, ATTRACTED BY US INTO THE "SHOW" ARMY OF MASONIC LODGES IN
ORDER TO THROW DUST IN THE EYES OF THEIR FELLOWS.

God has granted to us, His Chosen People, the gift
of the dispersion, and in this which appears in all eyes to be our
weakness, has come forth all our strength, which has now brought us to
the threshold of sovereignty over all the world.

There now remains not much more for us to build up
upon the foundation we have laid.

12. Control of the Press

1. The word "freedom," which can be interpreted in various
ways, is defined by us as follows -

Freedom is the right to do what which the law allows. This
interpretation of the word will at the proper time be of service to us,
because all freedom will thus be in our hands, since the laws will
abolish or create only that which is desirable for us according to the
aforesaid program.

We shall deal with the press in the following way: what is the
part played by the press today? It serves to excite and inflame those
passions which are needed for our purpose or else it serves selfish ends
of parties.

It is often vapid, unjust, mendacious, and the
majority of the public have not the slightest idea what ends the press
really serves. We shall saddle and bridle it with a tight curb: we shall
do the same also with all productions of the printing press, for where
would be the sense of getting rid of the attacks of the press if we
remain targets for pamphlets and books?

The produce of
publicity, which nowadays is a source of heavy expense owing to the
necessity of censoring it, will be turned by us into a very lucrative
source of income to our State: we shall law on it a special stamp tax
and require deposits of caution-money before permitting the
establishment of any organ of the press or of printing offices; these
will then have to guarantee our government against any kind of attack on
the part of the press.

For any attempt to attack us, if such
still be possible, we shall inflict fines without mercy. Such measures
as stamp tax, deposit of caution-money and fines secured by these
deposits, will bring in a huge income to the government.

It is
true that party organs might not spare money for the sake of publicity,
but these we shall shut up at the second attack upon us. No one shall
with impunity lay a finger on the aureole of our government
infallibility.

The pretext for stopping any publication will be
the alleged plea that it is agitating the public mind without occasion
or justification. I BEG YOU TO NOTE THAT AMONG THOSE MAKING ATTACKS UPON
US WILL ALSO BE ORGANS ESTABLISHED BY US, BUT THEY WILL ATTACK
EXCLUSIVELY POINTS THAT WE HAVE PRE-DETERMINED TO
ALTER.

WE CONTROL THE PRESS

NOT A SINGLE ANNOUNCEMENT WILL REACH THE PUBLIC WITHOUT OUR
CONTROL.

Even now this is already being attained by us inasmuch
as all news items are received by a few agencies, in whose offices they
are focused from all parts of the world.
These agencies will then be
already entirely ours and will give publicity only to what we dictate to
them.

If already now we have contrived to possess ourselves of the
minds of the GOY communities to such an extent the they all come near
looking upon the events of the world through the colored glasses of
those spectacles we are setting astride their noses.

If already
now there is not a single State where there exist for us any barriers to
admittance into what GOY stupidity calls State secrets: what will our
positions be then, when we shall be acknowledged supreme lords of the
world in the person of our king of all the world ....

Let us turn again to the FUTURE OF THE PRINTING PRESS.

Every one desirous of being a publisher, librarian, or printer,
will be obliged to provide himself with the diploma instituted
therefore, which, in case of any fault, will be immediately impounded.

With such measures THE INSTRUMENT OF THOUGHT WILL BECOME AN
EDUCATIVE MEANS ON THE HANDS OF OUR GOVERNMENT, WHICH WILL NO LONGER
ALLOW THE MASS OF THE NATION TO BE LED ASTRAY IN BY-WAYS AND FANTASIES
ABOUT THE BLESSINGS OF PROGRESS.

Is there any one of us who does
not know that these phantom blessings are the direct roads to foolish
imaginings which give birth to anarchical relations of men among
themselves and towards authority, because progress, or rather the idea
of progress, has introduced the conception of every kind of
emancipation, but has failed to establish its limits....

All the
so-called liberals are anarchists, if not in fact, at any rate in
thought. Every one of them in hunting after phantoms of freedom, and
falling exclusively into license, that is, into the anarchy of protest
for the sake of protest ....

FREE PRESS
DESTROYED

We turn to the periodical press. We shall impose on it, as on
all printed matter, stamp taxes per sheet and deposits of caution-money,
and books of less than 30 sheets will pay double.

We shall
reckon them as pamphlets in order, on the one hand, to reduce the number
of magazines, which are the worst form of printed poison, and, on the
other, in order that this measure may force writers into such lengthy
productions that they will be little read, especially as they will be
costly.

At the same time what we shall publish ourselves to
influence mental development in the direction laid down for our profit
will be cheap and will be read voraciously.
The tax will bring vapid
literary ambitions within bounds and the liability to penalties will
make literary men dependent upon us.

And if there should be any
found who are desirous of writing against us, they will not find any
person eager to print their productions in print the publisher or
printer will have to apply to the authorities for permission to do so.

Thus we shall know beforehand of all tricks preparing against us
and shall nullify them by getting ahead with explanations on the subject
treated of.

Literature and journalism are two of the most important
educative forces, and therefore our government will become proprietor of
the majority of the journals.

This will neutralize the injurious
influence of the privately-owned press and will put us in possession of
a tremendous influence upon the public mind .... If we give permits for
ten journals, we shall ourselves found thirty, and so on in the same
proportion.

This, however, must in no wise be suspected by the
public. For which reason all journals published by us will be of the
most opposite, in appearance, tendencies and opinions, thereby creating
confidence in us and bringing over to us quite unsuspicious opponents,
who will thus fall into our trap and be rendered harmless.

In the front rank will stand organs of an official character.
They will always stand guard over our interests, and therefore their
influence will be comparatively insignificant.

In the second rank will be the semi-official organs, whose
part it will be to attack the tepid and indifferent.

In the third rank we shall set up our own, to all appearance,
off position, which, in at least one of its organs, will present what
looks like the very antipodes to us. Our real opponents at heart will
accept this simulated opposition as their own and will show us their
cards.

All our newspapers will be of all possible complexions -
aristocratic, republican, revolutionary, even anarchical - for so long,
of course, as the constitution exists .... Like the Indian idol "Vishnu"
they will have a hundred hands, and every one of them will have a finger
on any one of the public opinions as required.

When a pulse
quickens these hands will lead opinion in the direction of our aims, for
an excited patient loses all power of judgment and easily yields to
suggestion. Those fools who will think they are repeating the opinion of
a newspaper of their own camp will be repeating our opinion or any
opinion that seems desirable for us.

In the vain belief that
they are following the organ of their party they will, in fact, follow
the flag which we hang out for them.

In order to direct our newspaper militia in this sense we must
take special and minute care in organizing this matter. Under the title
of central department of the press we shall institute literary
gatherings at which our agents will without attracting attention issue
the orders and watchwords of the day.

By discussing and
controverting, but always superficially, without touching the essence of
the matter, our organs will carry on a sham fight fusillade with the
official newspapers solely for the purpose of giving occasion for us to
express ourselves more fully than could well be done from the outset in
official announcements, whenever, of course, that is to our advantage.

THESE ATTACKS UPON US WILL ALSO SERVE ANOTHER PURPOSE, NAMELY,
THAT OUR SUBJECTS WILL BE CONVINCED TO THE EXISTENCE OF FULL FREEDOM OF
SPEECH AND SO GIVE OUR AGENTS AN OCCASION TO AFFIRM THAT ALL ORGANS
WHICH OPPOSE US ARE EMPTY BABBLERS, since they are incapable of finding
any substantial objections to our orders.

ONLY LIES
PRINTED

15. Methods of organization like these, imperceptible to the
public eye but absolutely sure, are the best calculated to succeed in
bringing the attention and the confidence of the public to the side of
our government.

Thanks to such methods we shall be in a position
as from time to time may be required, to excite or to tranquilize the
public mind on political questions, to persuade or to confuse, printing
now truth, now lies, facts or their contradictions, according as they
may be well or ill received, always very cautiously feeling our ground
before stepping upon it ....

WE SHALL HAVE A SURE TRIUMPH OVER
OUR OPPONENTS SINCE THEY WILL NOT HAVE AT THEIR DISPOSITION ORGANS OF
THE PRESS IN WHICH THEY CAN GIVE FULL AND FINAL EXPRESSION TO THEIR
VIEWS owing to the aforesaid methods of dealing with the press.

We shall not even need to refute them except very superficially.

Trial shots like these, fired by us in the third rank of our
press, in case of need, will be energetically refuted by us in our
semi-official organs.

Even nowadays, already, to take only the French press, there
are forms which reveal masonic solidarity in acting on the watchword:
all organs of the press are bound together by professional secrecy; like
the augurs of old, not one of their numbers will give away the secret of
his sources of information unless it be resolved to make announcement of
them.

Not one journalist will venture to betray this secret, for
not one of them is ever admitted to practice literature unless his whole
past has some disgraceful sore or other .... These sores would be
immediately revealed.

So long as they remain the secret of a few
the prestige of the journalist attacks the majority of the country - the
mob follow after him with enthusiasm.

Our calculations are especially extended to the provinces. It
is indispensable for us to inflame there those hopes and impulses with
which we could at any moment fall upon the capital, and we shall
represent to the capitals that these expressions are the independent
hopes and impulses of the provinces.

Naturally, the source of
them will be always one and the same - ours. WHAT WE NEED IS THAT, UNTIL
SUCH TIME AS WE ARE IN THE PLENITUDE POWER, THE CAPITALS SHOULD FIND
THEMSELVES STIFLED BY THE PROVINCIAL OPINION OF THE NATIONS, I.E., OF A
MAJORITY ARRANGED BY OUR AGENTUR.

What we need is that at the
psychological moment the capitals should not be in a position to discuss
an accomplished fact for the simple reason, if for no other, that it has
been accepted by the public opinion of a majority in the provinces.

WHEN WE ARE IN THE PERIOD OF THE NEW REGIME TRANSITIONAL TO
THAT OF OUR ASSUMPTION OF FULL SOVEREIGNTY WE MUST NOT ADMIT ANY
REVELATION BY THE PRESS OF ANY FORM OF PUBLIC DISHONESTY; IT IS
NECESSARY THAT THE NEW REGIME SHOULD BE THOUGHT TO HAVE SO PERFECTLY
CONTENDED EVERYBODY THAT EVEN CRIMINALITY HAS DISAPPEARED...

Cases of the manifestation of criminality should remain known
only to their victims and to chance witnesses - no more.

13. Distractions

The need for daily forces the GOYIM to keep silence and be our
humble servants.
Agents taken on to our press from among the GOYIM
will at our orders discuss anything which it is inconvenient for us to
issue directly in official documents, and we meanwhile, quietly amid the
din of the discussion so raised, shall simply take and carry through
such measures as we wish and then offer them to the public as an
accomplished fact.

No one will dare to demand the abrogation of
a matter once settled, all the more so as it will be represented as an
improvement ... And immediately the press will distract the current of
thought towards, new questions, (have we not trained people always to be
seeking something new?).

Into the discussions of these new
questions will throw themselves those of the brainless dispensers of
fortunes who are not able even now to understand that they have not the
remotest conception about the matters which they undertake to discuss.
Questions of the political are unattainable for any save those who have
guided it already for many ages, the creators.

From all this you will see that in seeming the opinion of the
mob we are only facilitating the working of our machinery, and you may
remark that it is not for actions but for words issued by us on this or
that question that we seem to seek approval.
We are constantly
making public declaration that we are guided in all our undertakings by
the hope, joined to the conviction, that we are serving the common
weal.

WE DECEIVE WORKERS

In order to distract people who may be too troublesome from
discussions of questions of the political we are now putting forward
what we allege to be new questions of the political, namely, questions
of industry. In this sphere let them discuss themselves silly!

The masses are agreed to remain inactive, to take a rest from
what they suppose to be political (which we trained them to in order to
use them as a means of combating the GOY governments) only on condition
of being found new employments, in which we are prescribing them
something that looks like the same political object.

In order
that the masses themselves may not guess what they are about WE FURTHER
DISTRACT THEM WITH AMUSEMENTS, GAMES, PASTIMES, PASSIONS, PEOPLE'S
PALACES .... SOON WE SHALL BEGIN THROUGH THE PRESS TO PROPOSE
COMPETITIONS IN ART, IN SPORT IN ALL KINDS: these interests will finally
distract their minds from questions in which we should find ourselves
compelled to oppose them.

Growing more and more disaccustomed to
reflect and form any opinions of their own, people will begin to talk in
the same tone as we because we alone shall be offering them new
directions for thought ... of course through such persons as will not be
suspected of solidarity with us.

The part played by the liberals, utopian dreamers, will be
finally played out when our government is acknowledged. Till such time
they will continue to do us good service.

Therefore we shall
continue to direct their minds to all sorts of vain conceptions of
fantastic theories, new and apparently progressive: for have we not with
complete success turned the brainless heads of the GOYIM with progress,
till there is not among the GOYIM one mind able to perceive that under
this word lies a departure from truth in all cases where it is not a
question of material inventions, like a fallacious idea, serves to
obscure truth so that none may know it except us, the Chosen of God, its
guardians.

When, we come into our kingdom our orators will expound great
problems which have turned humanity upside down in order to bring it at
the end under our beneficent rule.

Who will ever suspect then that ALL THESE PEOPLES WERE
STAGE-MANAGED BY US ACCORDING TO A POLITICAL PLAN WHICH NO ONE HAS SO
MUCH AS GUESSED AT IN THE COURSE OF MANY CENTURIES?

Contents

14. Assault on Religion

When we come into our kingdom it will be undesirable for us
that there should exist any other religion than ours of the One God with
whom our destiny is bound up by our position as the Chosen People and
through whom our same destiny is united with the destinies of the world.

We must therefore sweep away all other forms of belief. If this
gives birth to the atheists whom we see to-day, it will not, being only
a transitional stage, interfere with our views, but will serve as a
warning for those generations which will hearken to our preaching of the
religion of Moses, that, by its stable and thoroughly elaborated system
has brought all the peoples of the world into subjection to us.

Therein we shall emphasize its mystical right, on which, as we
shall say, all its educative power is based .... Then at every possible
opportunity we shall publish articles in which we shall make comparisons
between our beneficent rule and those of past ages.

The blessing
of tranquility, though it be a tranquility forcibly brought about by
centuries of agitation, will throw into higher relief the benefits to
which we shall point.

The errors of the GOYIM governments will
be depicted by us in the most vivid hues.
We shall implant such an
abhorrence of them that the peoples will prefer tranquility in a state
of serfdom to those rights of vaunted freedom which have tortured
humanity and exhausted the very sources of human existence, sources
which have been exploited by a mob of rascally adventurers who know not
what they do....

USELESS CHANGES OF FORMS OF GOVERNMENT TO WHICH
WE INSTIGATED THE "GOYIM" WHEN WE WERE UNDERMINING THEIR STATE
STRUCTURES, WILL HAVE SO WEARIED THE PEOPLES BY THAT TIME THAT THEY WILL
PREFER TO SUFFER ANYTHING UNDER US RATHER THAN RUN THE RISK OF ENDURING
AGAIN ALL THE AGITATIONS AND MISERIES THEY HAVE GONE
THROUGH.

WE SHALL FORBID CHRIST

At the same time we shall not omit to emphasize the historical
mistakes of the GOY governments which have tormented humanity for so
many centuries by their lack of understanding of everything that
constitutes the true good of humanity in their chase after fantastic
schemes of social blessings, and have never noticed that these schemes
kept on producing a worse and never a better state of the universal
relations which are the basis of human life ....

The whole force of our principles and methods will lie in the
fact that we shall present them and expound them as a splendid contrast
to the dead and decomposed old order of things in social life.

Our philosophers will discuss all the shortcomings of the
various beliefs of the "GOYIM," BUT NO ONE WILL EVER BRING UNDER
DISCUSSION OUR FAITH FROM ITS TRUE POINT OF VIEW SINCE THIS WILL BE
FULLY LEARNED BY NONE SAVE OURS WHO WILL NEVER DARE TO BETRAY ITS
SECRETS.

IN COUNTRIES KNOWN AS PROGRESSIVE AND ENLIGHTENED WE HAVE
CREATED A SENSELESS, FILTHY, ABOMINABLE LITERATURE.

For some
time after our entrance to power we shall continue to encourage its
existence in order to provide a telling relief by contrast to the
speeches, party program, which will be distributed from exalted quarters
of ours ]....

Our wise men, trained to become leaders of the
GOYIM, will compose speeches, projects, memoirs, articles, which will be
used by us to influence the minds of the GOYIM, directing them towards
such understanding and forms of knowledge as have been determined by
us.

Contents

15. Ruthless Suppression

When we at last definitely come into our kingdom by the aid of
COUPS D'ETAT prepared everywhere for one and the same day, after
definitely acknowledged (and not a little time will pass before that
comes about, perhaps even a whole century) we shall make it our task to
see that against us such things as plots shall no longer exist.

With this purpose we shall slay without mercy all who take arms
(in hand) to oppose our coming into our kingdom. Every kind of new
institution of anything like a secret society will also be punished with
death; those of them which are now in existence, are known to us, serve
us and have served us, we shall disband and send into exile to
continents far removed from Europe.

IN THIS WAY WE SHALL PROCEED
WITH THOSE "GOY" MASONS WHO KNOW TOO MUCH; such of these as we may for
some reason spare will be kept in constant fear of exile.

We
shall promulgate a law making all former members of secret societies
liable to exile from Europe as the center of rule.

Resolutions of our government will be final, without appeal.

In the GOY societies, in which we have planted and deeply
rooted discord and protestantism, the only possible way of restoring
order is to employ merciless measures that prove the direct force of
authority: no regard must be paid to the victims who fall, they suffer
for the well-being of the future.

The attainment of that
well-being, even at the expense of sacrifices, is the duty of any kind
of government that acknowledges as justification for its existence not
only its privileges but its obligations.

The principal guarantee
of stability of rule is to confirm the aureole of power, and this
aureole is attained only by such a majestic inflexibility of might as
shall carry on its face the emblems of inviolability from mystical
causes - from the choice of God.

SUCH WAS, UNTIL RECENT TIMES,
THE RUSSIAN AUTOCRACY, THE ONE AND ONLY SERIOUS FOE WE HAD IN THE WORLD,
WITHOUT COUNTING THE PAPACY.

Bear in mind the example when
Italy, drenched with blood, never touched a hair of the head of Sulla
who had poured forth that blood: Sulla enjoyed an apotheosis for his
might in him, but his intrepid return to Italy ringed him round with
inviolability.

The people do not lay a finger on him who
hypnotizes them by his daring and strength of
mind.

SECRET SOCIETIES

Meantime, however, until we come into our kingdom, we shall
act in the contrary way: we shall create and multiply free masonic
lodges in all the countries of the world, absorb into them all who may
become or who are prominent in public activity, for these lodges we
shall find our principal intelligence office and means of influence.

All these lodges we shall bring under one central
administration, known to us alone and to all others absolutely unknown,
which will be composed of our learned elders. The lodges will have their
representatives who will serve to screen the above-mentioned
administration of MASONRY and from whom will issue the watchword and
program.

In these lodges we shall tie together the knot which
binds together all revolutionary and liberal elements. Their composition
will be made up of all strata of society. The most secret political
plots will be known to us and fall under our guiding hands on the very
day of their conception.

AMONG THE MEMBERS OF THESE LODGES WILL
BE ALMOST ALL THE AGENTS OF INTERNATIONAL AND NATIONAL POLICE since
their service is for us irreplaceable in the respect that the police is
in a position not only to use its own particular measures with the
insubordinate, but also to screen our activities and provide pretexts
for discontents, ET CETERA.

The class of people who most willingly enter into secret
societies are those who live by their wits, careerists, and in general
people, mostly light-minded, with whom we shall have no difficulty in
dealing and in using to wind up the mechanism of the machine devised by
us.

If this world grows agitated the meaning of that will be
that we have had to stir up in order to break up its too great
solidarity. BUT IF THERE SHOULD ARISE IN ITS MIDST A PLOT, THEN AT THE
HEAD OF THAT PLOT WILL BE NO OTHER THAN ONE OF OUR MOST TRUSTED
SERVANTS.

It is natural that we and no other should lead MASONIC
activities, for we know whither we are leading, we know the final goal
of every form of activity whereas the GOYIM have knowledge of nothing,
not even of the immediate effect of action; they put before themselves,
usually, the momentary reckoning of the satisfaction of their
self-opinion in the accomplishment of their thought without even
remarking that the very conception never belonged to their initiative
but to our instigation of their thought ....

GENTILES
ARE STUPID

The GOYIM enter the lodges out of curiosity or in the hope by
their means to get a nibble at the public pie, and some of them in order
to obtain a hearing before the public for their impracticable and
groundless fantasies: they thirst for the emotion of success and
applause, of which we are remarkably generous.

And the reason
why we give them this success is to make use of the nigh conceit of
themselves to which it gives birth, for that insensibly disposes them to
assimilate our suggestions without being on their guard against them in
the fullness of their confidence that it is their own infallibility
which is giving utterance to their own thoughts and that it is
impossible for them to borrow those of others....

You cannot
imagine to what extent the wisest of the GOYIM can be brought to a state
of unconscious naivete in the presence of this condition of high conceit
of themselves, and at the same time how easy it is to take the heart out
of them by the slightest ill-success, though it be nothing more than the
stoppage of the applause they had, and to reduce them to a slavish
submission for the sake of winning a renewal of success....

BY
SO MUCH AS OURS DISREGARD SUCCESS IF ONLY THEY CAN CARRY THROUGH THEIR
PLANS, BY SO MUCH THE "GOYIM" ARE WILLING TO SACRIFICE ANY PLANS ONLY TO
HAVE SUCCESS.

This psychology of theirs materially facilitates
for us the task of setting them in the required direction. These tigers
in appearance have the souls of sheep and the wind blows freely through
their heads. We have set them on the hobby-horse of an idea about the
absorption of individuality by the symbolic unit of COLLECTIVISM....

They have never yet and they never will have the sense to
reflect that this hobby-horse is a manifest violation of the most
important law of nature, which has established from the very creation of
the world one unit unlike another and precisely for the purpose of
instituting individuality ....

If we have been able to bring them to such a pitch of stupid
blindness is it not a proof, and an amazingly clear proof, of the degree
to which the mind of the GOYIM is undeveloped in comparison with our
mind? This it is, mainly, which guarantees our
success.

GENTILES ARE CATTLE

And how far-seeing were our learned elders in ancient times
when they said that to attain a serious end it behooves not to stop at
any means or to count the victims sacrificed for the sake of that
end....

We have not counted the victims of the seed of the GOY
cattle, though we have sacrificed many of our own, but for that we have
now already given them such a position on the earth as they could not
even have dreamed of.

The comparatively small numbers of the
victims from the number of ours have preserved our nationality from
destruction.

Death is the inevitable end for all. It is better to bring
that end nearer to those who hinder our affairs than to ourselves, to
the founders of this affair.

WE EXECUTE MASONS IN SUCH WISE THAT
NONE SAVE THE BROTHERHOOD CAN EVER HAVE A SUSPICION OF IT, NOT EVEN THE
VICTIMS THEMSELVES OF OUR DEATH SENTENCE, THEY ALL DIE WHEN REQUIRED AS
IF FROM A NORMAL KIND OF ILLNESS.....

Knowing this, even the
brotherhood in its turn dare not protest. By such methods we have
plucked out of the midst of MASONRY the very root of protest against our
disposition.

While preaching liberalism to the GOY we at the
same time keep our own people and our agents in a state of
unquestioningly submission.

Under our influence the execution of the laws of the GOYIM has
been reduced to a minimum. The prestige of the law has been exploded by
the liberal interpretations introduced into this sphere.

In the
most important and fundamental affairs and questions, JUDGES DECIDE AS
WE DICTATE TO THEM, see matters in the light wherewith we enfold them
for the administration of the GOYIM, of course, through persons who are
our tools though we do not appear to have anything in common with them -
by newspaper opinion or by other means ....

Even senators and
the higher administration accept our counsels. The purely brute mind of
the GOYIM is incapable of use for analysis and observation, and still
more for the foreseeing whither a certain manner of setting a question
may tend.

In this difference in capacity for thought between the GOYIM
and ourselves may be clearly discerned the seal of our position as the
Chosen People and of our higher quality of humanness, in
contradistinction to the brute mind of the GOYIM.

Their eyes are
open, but see nothing before them and do not invent (unless perhaps,
material things). From this it is plain that nature herself has destined
us to guide and rule the world.

WE DEMAND
SUBMISSION

When comes the time of our overt rule, the time to manifest
its blessing, we shall remake all legislatures, all our laws will be
brief, plain, stable, without any kind of interpretations, so that
anyone will be in a position to know them perfectly.

The main
feature which will run right through them is submission to orders, and
this principle will be carried to a grandiose height. Every abuse will
then disappear in consequence of the responsibility of all down to the
lowest unit before the higher authority of the representative of power.

Abuses of power subordinate to this last instance will be so
mercilessly punished that none will be found anxious to try experiments
with their own powers. We shall follow up jealously every action of the
administration on which depends the smooth running of the machinery of
the State, for slackness in this produces slackness everywhere; not a
single case of illegality or abuse of power will be left without
exemplary punishment.

Concealment of guilt, connivance between those in the service
of the administration - all this kind of evil will disappear after the
very first examples of severe punishment.

The aureole of our
power demands suitable, that is, cruel, punishments for the slightest
infringement, for the sake of gain, of its supreme prestige.

The
sufferer, though his punishment may exceed his fault, will count as a
soldier falling on the administrative field of battle in the interest of
authority, principle and law, which do not permit that any of those who
hold the reins of the public coach should turn aside from the public
highway to their own private paths.

FOR EXAMPLES OUR JUDGES WILL
KNOW THAT WHENEVER THEY FEEL DISPOSED TO PLUME THEMSELVES ON FOOLISH
CLEMENCY THEY ARE VIOLATING THE LAW OF JUSTICE WHICH IS INSTITUTED FOR
THE EXEMPLARY EDIFICATION OF MEN BY PENALTIES FOR LAPSES AND NOT FOR
DISPLAY OF THE SPIRITUAL QUALITIES OF THE JUDGES ....

Such
qualities it is proper to show in private life, but not in a public
square which is the educationally basis of human life.

Our legal staff will serve not beyond the age of 55, firstly
because old men more obstinately hold to prejudiced opinions, and are
less capable of submitting to new directions, and secondly because this
will give us the possibility by this measure of securing elasticity in
the changing of staff, which will thus the more easily bend under our
pressure: he who wishes to keep his place will have to give blind
obedience to deserve it.

In general, our judges will be elected
by us only from among those who thoroughly understand that the part they
have to play is to punish and apply laws and not to dream about the
manifestations of liberalism at the expense of the educational scheme of
the State, as the GOYIM in these days imagine it to be ....

This
method of shuffling the staff will serve also to explode any collective
solidarity of those in the same service and will bind all to the
interests of the government upon which their fate will depend. The young
generation of judges will be trained in certain views regarding the
inadmissibility of any abuses that might disturb the established order
of our subjects among themselves.

In these days the judges of the GOYIM create indulgences to
every kind of crimes, not having a just understanding of their office,
because the rulers of the present age in appointing judges to office
take no care to inculcate in them a sense of duty and consciousness of
the matter which is demanded of them.

As a brute beast lets out
its young in search of prey, so do the GOYIM give to them for what
purpose such place was created. This is the reason why their governments
are being ruined by their own forces through the acts of their own
administration.

Let us borrow from the example of the results of these actions
yet another lesson for our government.

We shall root out liberalism from all the important strategic
posts of our government on which depends the training of subordinates
for our State structure. Such posts will fall exclusively to those who
have been trained by us for administrative rule.

To the possible
objection that the retirement of old servants will cost the Treasury
heavily, I reply, firstly, they will be provided with some private
service in place of what they lose, and, secondly, I have to remark that
all the money in the world will be concentrated in our hands,
consequently it is not our government that has to fear
expense.

WE SHALL BE CRUEL

Our absolutism will in all things be logically consecutive and
therefore in each one of its decrees our supreme will be respected and
unquestionably fulfilled: it will ignore all murmurs, all discontents of
every kind and will destroy to the root every kind of manifestation of
them in act by punishment of an exemplary character.

We shall abolish the right of cessation, which will be
transferred exclusively to our disposal - to the cognizance of him who
rules, for we must not allow the conception among the people of a
thought that there could be such a thing as a decision that is not right
of judges set up by us.

If, however, anything like this should
occur, we shall ourselves cassate the decision, but inflict therewith
such exemplary punishment on the judge for lack of understanding of his
duty and the purpose of his appointment as will prevent a repetition of
such cases ....

I repeat that it must be born in mind that we
shall know every step of our administration which only needs to be
closely watched for the people to be content with us, for it has the
right to demand from a good government a good official.

OUR GOVERNMENT WILL HAVE THE APPEARANCE OF A PATRIARCHAL
PATERNAL GUARDIANSHIP ON THE PART OF OUR RULER. Our own nation and our
subjects will discern in his person a father caring for their every
need, their every act, their every inter-relation as subjects one with
another, as well as their relations to the ruler.

They will then
be so thoroughly imbued with the thought that it is impossible for them
to dispense with this wardship and guidance, if they wish to live in
peace and quiet, THAT THEY WILL ACKNOWLEDGE THE AUTOCRACY OF OUR RULER
WITH A DEVOTION BORDERING ON "APOTHEOSIS," especially when they are
convinced that those whom we set up do not put their own in place of
authority, but only blindly execute his dictates.

They will be
rejoiced that we have regulated everything in their lives as is done by
wise parents who desire to train children in the cause of duty and
submission. For the peoples of the world in regard to the secrets of our
polity are ever through the ages only children under age, precisely as
are also their governments.

As you see, I found our despotism on right and duty: the right
to compel the execution of duty is the direct obligation of a government
which is a father for its subjects. It has the right of the strong that
it may use it for the benefit of directing humanity towards that order
which is defined by nature, namely, submission.

Everything in
the world is in a state of submission, if not to man, then to
circumstances or its own inner character, in all cases, to what is
stronger. And so shall we be this something stronger for the sake of
good.

We are obliged without hesitation to sacrifice individuals,
who commit a breach of established order, for in the exemplary
punishment of evil lies a great educational problem.

When the King of Israel sets upon his sacred head the crown
offered him by Europe he will become patriarch of the world. The
indispensable victims offered by him in consequence of their suitability
will never reach the number of victims offered in the course of
centuries by the mania of magnificence, the emulation between the GOY
governments.

Our King will be in constant communion with the peoples,
making to them from the tribune speeches which fame will in that same
hour distribute over all the world.

16. Brainwashing

In order to effect the destruction of all collective forces
except ours we shall emasculate the first stage of collectivism - the
UNIVERSITIES, by reeducating them in a new direction.

THEIR
OFFICIALS AND PROFESSORS WILL BE PREPARED FOR THEIR BUSINESS BY DETAILED
SECRET PROGRAMS OF ACTION FROM WHICH THEY WILL NOT WITH IMMUNITY
DIVERGE, NOT BY ONE IOTA.
THEY WILL BE APPOINTED WITH ESPECIAL
PRECAUTION, AND WILL BE SO PLACED AS TO BE WHOLLY DEPENDENT UPON THE
GOVERNMENT.

We shall exclude from the course of instruction State Law as
also all that concerns the political question. These subjects will be
taught to a few dozen of persons chosen for their preeminent capacities
from among the number of the initiated.

THE UNIVERSITIES MUST NO
LONGER SEND OUT FROM THEIR HALLS MILK SOPS CONCOCTING PLANS FOR A
CONSTITUTION, LIKE A COMEDY OR A TRAGEDY, BUSYING THEMSELVES WITH
QUESTIONS OF POLICY IN WHICH EVEN THEIR OWN FATHERS NEVER HAD ANY POWER
OF THOUGHT.

The ill-guided acquaintance of a large number of persons with
questions of polity creates utopian dreamers and bad subjects, as you
can see for yourselves from the example of the universal education in
this direction of the GOYIM.

We must introduce into their
education all those principles which have so brilliantly broken up their
order. But when we are in power we shall remove every kind of disturbing
subject from the course of education and shall make out of the youth
obedient children of authority, loving him who rules as the support and
hope of peace and quiet.

WE SHALL CHANGE
HISTORY

Classicism as also any form of study of ancient history, in
which there are more bad than good examples, we shall replace with the
study of the program of the future.
We shall erase from the memory
of men all facts of previous centuries which are undesirable to us, and
leave only those which depict all the errors of the government of the
GOYIM.

The study of practical life, of the obligations of order,
of the relations of people one to another, of avoiding bad and selfish
examples, which spread the infection of evil, and similar questions of
an educative nature, will stand in the forefront of the teaching
program, which will be drawn up on a separate plan for each calling or
state of life, in no wise generalizing the teaching. This treatment of
the question has special importance.

Each state of life must be trained within strict limits
corresponding to its destination and work in life.

The
OCCASIONAL GENIUS HAS ALWAYS MANAGED AND ALWAYS WILL MANAGE TO SLIP
THROUGH INTO OTHER STATES OF LIFE, BUT IT IS THE MOST PERFECT FOLLY FOR
THE SAKE OF THIS RARE OCCASIONAL GENIUS TO LET THROUGH INTO RANKS
FOREIGN TO THEM THE UNTALENTED WHO THUS ROB OF THEIR PLACES WHO BELONG
TO THOSE RANKS BY BIRTH OR EMPLOYMENT. YOU KNOW YOURSELVES IN WHAT ALL
THIS HAS ENDED FOR THE "GOYIM" WHO ALLOWED THIS CRYING ABSURDITY.

In order that he who rules may be seated firmly in the hearts
and minds of his subjects it is necessary for the time of his activity
to instruct the whole nation in the schools and on the market places
about this meaning and his acts and all his beneficent initiatives.

We shall abolish every kind of freedom of instruction.
Learners of all ages have the right to assemble together with their
parents in the educational establishments as it were in a club: during
these assemblies, on holidays, teachers will read what will pass as free
lectures on questions of human relations, of the laws of examples, of
the philosophy of new theories not yet declared to the world.

These theories will be raised by us to the stage of a dogma of
faith as a traditional stage towards our faith. On the completion of
this exposition of our program of action in the present and the future I
will read you the principles of these theories.

In a word, knowing by the experience of many centuries that
people live and are guided by ideas, that these ideas are imbibed by
people only by the aid of education provided with equal success for all
ages of growth, but of course by varying methods, we shall swallow up
and confiscate to our own use the last scintilla of independence of
thought, which we have for long past been directing towards subjects and
ideas useful for us.

The system of bridling thought is already
at work in the so-called system of teaching by OBJECT LESSONS, the
purpose of which is to turn the GOYIM into unthinking submissive brutes
waiting for things to be presented before their eyes in order to form an
idea of them ....

In France, one of our best agents, Bourgeois,
has already made public a new program of teaching by object
lessons.

17. Abuse of Authority

The practice of advocacy produces men cold, cruel, persistent,
unprincipled, who in all cases take up an impersonal, purely legal
standpoint. They have the inveterate habit to refer everything to its
value for the defense and not to the public welfare of its results.

They do not usually decline to undertake any defense whatever,
they strive for an acquittal at all costs, caviling over every petty
crux of jurisprudence and thereby they demoralize justice.

For
this reason we shall set this profession into narrow frames which will
keep it inside this sphere of executive public service. Advocates,
equally with judges, will be deprived of the right of communication with
litigant; they well receive business only from the court and will study
it by notes of report and documents, defending their clients after they
have been interrogated in court on facts that have appeared.

They will receive an honorarium without regard to the quality of
the defense. This will render them mere reporters on law-business in the
interests of justice and as counterpoise to the proctor who will be the
reporter in the interests of prosecution; this will shorten business
before the courts.

In this way will be established a practice of
honest unprejudiced defense conducted not from personal interest but by
conviction. This will also, by the way, remove the present practice of
corrupt bargain between advocation to agree only to let that side win
which pays most .....

WE SHALL DESTROY THE
CLERGY

WE HAVE LONG PAST TAKEN CARE TO DISCREDIT THE PRIESTHOOD OF
"GOYIM," and thereby to ruin their mission on earth which in these days
might still be a great hindrance to us.

Day by day its influence
on the peoples of the world is falling lower. FREEDOM OF CONSCIENCE HAS
BEEN DECLARED EVERYWHERE, SO THAT NOW ONLY YEARS DIVIDE US FROM THE
MOMENT OF THE COMPLETE WRECKING OF THAT CHRISTIAN RELIGION: as to other
religions we shall have still less difficulty in dealing with them, but
it would be premature to speak of this now.

We shall act
clericalism and clericals into such narrow frames as to make their
influence move in retrogressive proportion to its former progress.

When the time comes finally to destroy the papal court the
finger of an invisible hand will point the nations towards this court.
When, however, the nations fling themselves upon it, we shall come
forward in the guise of its defenders as if to save excessive bloodshed.

By this diversion we shall penetrate to its very bowels and be
sure we shall never come out again until we have gnawed through the
entire strength of this place.

THE KING OF THE JEWS WILL BE THE REAL POPE OF THE UNIVERSE,
THE PATRIARCH OF THE INTERNATIONAL CHURCH [The Antichrist??].

But, IN THE MEANTIME, while we are reeducating youth in new
traditional religions and afterwards in ours, WE SHALL NOT OVERTLY LAY A
FINGER ON EXISTING CHURCHES, BUT WE SHALL FIGHT AGAINST THEM BY
CRITICISM CALCULATED TO PRODUCE SCHISM ....

In general, then, our contemporary press will continue to
CONVICT State affairs, religions, incapacities of the GOYIM, always
using the most unprincipled expressions in order by every means to lower
their prestige in the manner which can only be practiced by the genius
of our gifted tribe ....

Our kingdom will be an apologia of the divinity Vishnu, in
whom is found its personification - in our hundred hands will be, one in
each, the springs of the machinery of social life. We shall see
everything without the aid of official police which, in that scope of
its rights which we elaborated for the use of the GOYIM, hinders
governments from seeing.

In our programs ONE-THIRD OF OUR
SUBJECTS WILL KEEP THE REST UNDER OBSERVATION from a sense of duty, on
the principle of volunteer service to the State.

It will then be
no disgrace to be a spy and informer, but a merit: unfounded
denunciations, however, will be cruelly punished that there may be
development of abuses of this right.

Our agents will be taken from the higher as well as the lower
ranks of society, from among the administrative class who spend their
time in amusements, editors, printers and publishers, booksellers,
clerks, and salesmen, workmen, coachmen, lackeys, et cetera.

This body, having no rights and not being empowered to take any
action on their own account, and consequently a police without any
power, will only witness and report: verification of their reports and
arrests will depend upon a responsible group of controllers of police
affairs, while the actual act of arrest will be performed by the
gendarmerie and the municipal police.

Any person not denouncing
anything seen or heard concerning questions of polity will also be
charged with and made responsible for concealment, if it be proved that
he is guilty of this crime.

JUST AS NOWADAYS OUR BRETHREN, ARE OBLIGED AT THEIR OWN RISK
TO DENOUNCE TO THE KABAL APOSTATES OF THEIR OWN FAMILY or members who
have been noticed doing anything in opposition to the KABAL, SO IN OUR
KINGDOM OVER ALL THE WORLD IT WILL BE OBLIGATORY FOR ALL OUR SUBJECTS TO
OBSERVE THE DUTY OF SERVICE TO THE STATE IN THIS DIRECTION.

Such an organization will extirpate abuses of authority, of
force, of bribery, everything in fact which we by our counsels, by out
theories of the superhuman rights of man, have introduced into the
customs of the GOYIM ....

But how else were we to procure that
increase of causes predisposing to disorders in the midst of their
administration? .... Among the number of those methods one of the most
important is - agents for the restoration of order, so placed as to have
the opportunity in their disintegrating activity of developing and
displaying their evil inclinations - obstinate self-conceit,
irresponsible exercise of authority, and, first and foremost,
venality.

Contents

18. Arrest of Opponents

When it becomes necessary for us to strengthen the strict
measures of secret defense (the most fatal poison for the prestige of
authority) we shall arrange a simulation of disorders or some
manifestation of discontents finding expression through the co-operation
of good speakers.

Round these speakers will assemble all who are
sympathetic to his utterances. This will give us the pretext for
domiciliary prerequisitions and surveillance on the part of our servants
from among the number of the GOYIM police ....

As the majority of conspirators act of love for the game, for
the sake of talking, so, until they commit some overt act we shall not
lay a finger on them but only introduce into their midst observation
elements ....

It must be remembered that the prestige of
authority is lessened if it frequently discovers conspiracies against
itself: this implies a presumption of consciousness of weakness, or,
what is still worse, of injustice.

You are aware that we have
broken the prestige of the GOY kings by frequent attempts upon their
lives through our agents, blind sheep of our flock, who are easily moved
by a few liberal phrases to crimes provided only they be painted in
political colors.

WE HAVE COMPELLED THE RULERS TO ACKNOWLEDGE
THEIR WEAKNESS IN ADVERTISING OVERT MEASURES OF SECRETE DEFENSE AND
THEREBY WE SHALL BRING THE PROMISE OF AUTHORITY TO DESTRUCTION.

Our ruler will be secretly protected only by the most
insignificant guard, because we shall not admit so much as a thought
that there could exist against him any sedition with which he is not
strong enough to contend and is compelled to hide from it.

If we should admit this thought, as the GOYIM have done and
are doing, we should IPSO FACTO be signing a death sentence, if not for
our ruler, at any rate for his dynasty, at no distant
date.

GOVERNMENT BY FEAR

According to strictly enforced outward appearances our ruler
will employ his power only for the advantage of the nation and in no
wise for his own or dynastic profits.
Therefore, with the observance
of this decorum, his authority will be respected and guarded by the
subjects themselves, it will receive an apotheosis in the admission that
with it is bound up the well-being of every citizen of the State, for
upon it will depend all order in the common life of the pack ....

OVERT DEFENSE OF THE KIND ARGUES WEAKNESS IN THE ORGANIZATION
OF HIS STRENGTH.

Our ruler will always be among the people and be surrounded by
a mob of apparently curious men and women, who will occupy the front
ranks about him, to all appearance by chance, and will restrain the
ranks of the rest out of respect as it will appear for good order.

This will sow an example of restraint also in others. If a
petitioner appears among the people trying to hand a petition and
forcing his way through the ranks, the first ranks must receive the
petition and before the eyes of the petitioner pass it to the ruler, so
that all may know that what is handed in reaches its destination, that
consequently, there exists a control of the ruler himself.

The
aureole of power requires for is existence that the people may be able
to say: "If the king knew of this," or: "the king will hear it."

WITH THE ESTABLISHMENT OF OFFICIAL DEFENSE, THE MYSTICAL
PRESTIGE OF AUTHORITY DISAPPEARS: given a certain audacity, and everyone
counts himself master of it, the sedition-monger is conscious of his
strength, and when occasion serves watches for the moment to make an
attempt upon authority ....

For the GOYIM we have been preaching
something else, but by that very fact we are enabled to see what
measures of overt defense have brought them to ....

CRIMINALS WITH US WILL BE ARRESTED AT THE FIRST, more or less,
well-grounded SUSPICION: it cannot be allowed that out of fear of a
possible mistake an opportunity should be given of escape to persons
suspected of a political lapse of crime, for in these matters we shall
be literally merciless.

If it is still possible, by stretching a
point, to admit a reconsideration of the motive causes in simple crimes,
there is no possibility of excuse for persons occupying themselves with
questions in which nobody except the government can understand anything
....

And it is not all governments that understand true
policy.

Contents

19. Rulers and People

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.

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.

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.

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.

20. Financial Programme

Today we shall touch upon the financial program, which I put
off to the end of my report as being the most difficult, the crowning
and the decisive point of our plans.
Before entering upon it I will
remind you that I have already spoken before by way of a hint when I
said that the sum total of our actions is settled by the question of
figures.

When we come into our kingdom our autocratic government will
avoid, from a principle of self-preservation, sensibly burdening the
masses of the people with taxes, remembering that it plays the part of
father and protector.
But as State organization cost dear it is
necessary nevertheless to obtain the funds required for it. It will,
therefore, elaborate with particular precaution the question of
equilibrium in this matter.

Our rule, in which the king will enjoy the legal fiction that
everything in his State belongs to him (which may easily be translated
into fact), will be enabled to resort to the lawful confiscation of all
sums of every kind for the regulation of their circulation in the State.

From this follows that taxation will best be covered by a
progressive tax on property. In this manner the dues will be paid
without straitening or ruining anybody in the form of a percentage of
the amount of property.

The rich must be aware that it is their
duty to place a part of their superfluities at the disposal of the State
since the State guarantees them security of possession of the rest of
their property and the right of honest gains, I say honest, for the
control over property will do away with robbery on a legal basis.

This social reform must come from above, for the time is ripe
for it - it is indispensable as a pledge of peace.

WE
SHALL DESTROY CAPITAL

The tax upon the poor man is a seed of revolution and works to
the detriment of the State which is hunting after the trifling is
missing the big.
Quite apart from this, a tax on capitalists
diminishes the growth of wealth in private hands in which we have in
these days concentrated it as a counterpoise to the government strength
of the GOYIM - their State finances.

A tax increasing in a percentage ratio to capital will give
much larger revenue than the present individual or property tax, which
is useful to us now for the sole reason that it excites trouble and
discontent among the GOYIM.

The force upon which our king will rest consists in the
equilibrium and the guarantee of peace, for the sake of which things it
is indispensable that the capitalists should yield up a portion of their
incomes for the sake of the secure working of the machinery of the
State. State needs must be paid by those who will not feel the burden
and have enough to take from.

Such a measure will destroy the hatred of the poor man for the
rich, in whom he will see a necessary financial support for the State,
will see in him the organizer of peace and well-being since he will see
that it is the rich man who is paying the necessary means to attain
these things.

In order that payers of the educated classes should not too
much distress themselves over the new payments they will have full
accounts given them of the destination of those payments, with the
exception of such sums as will be appropriated for the needs of the
throne and the administrative institutions.

He who reigns will not have any properties of his own once all
in the State represented his patrimony, or else the one would be in
contradiction to the other; the fact of holding private means would
destroy the right of property in the common possessions of all.

Relatives of him who reigns, his heirs excepted, who will be
maintained by the resources of the State, must enter the ranks of
servants of the State or must work to obtain the right to property; the
privilege of royal blood must not serve for the spoiling of the
treasury.

Purchase, receipt of money or inheritance will be subject to
the payment of a stamp progressive tax. Any transfer of property,
whether money or other, without evidence of payment of this tax which
will be strictly registered by names, will render the former holder
liable to pay interest on the tax from the moment of transfer of these
sums up to the discovery of his evasion of declaration of the transfer.

Transfer documents must be presented weekly at the local
treasury office with notifications of the name, surname and permanent
place of residence of the former and the new holder of the property.

This transfer with register of names must begin from a definite
sum which exceeds the ordinary expenses of buying and selling
necessaries, and these will be subject to payment only by a stamp impost
of a definite percentage of the unit.

Just strike an estimate of how many times such taxes as these
will cover the revenue of the GOYIM States.

WE CAUSE
DEPRESSIONS

The State exchequer will have to maintain a definite
complement of reserve sums, and all that is collected above that
complement must be returned into circulation. On these sums will be
organized public works.

The initiative in works of this kind,
proceeding from State sources, will blind the working class firmly to
the interests of the State and to those who reign. From these same sums
also a part will be set aside as rewards of inventiveness and
productiveness.

On no account should so much as a single unit above the
definite and freely estimated sums be retained in the State Treasuries,
for money exists to be circulated and any kind of stagnation of money
acts ruinously on the running of the State machinery, for which it is
the lubricant; a stagnation of the lubricant may stop the regular
working of the mechanism.

The substitution of interest-bearing paper for a part of the
token of exchange has produced exactly this stagnation. The consequences
of this circumstance are already sufficiently noticeable.

A court of account will also be instituted by us, and in it
the ruler will find at any moment a full accounting for State income and
expenditure, with the exception of the current monthly account, not yet
made up, and that of the preceding month, which will not yet have been
delivered.

The one and only person who will have no interest in robbing
the State is its owner, the ruler. This is why his personal control will
remove the possibility of leakages of extravagances.

The representative function of the ruler at receptions for the
sake of etiquette, which absorbs so much invaluable time, will be
abolished in order that the ruler may have time for control and
consideration. His power will not then be split up into fractional parts
among time-serving favorites who surround the throne for its pomp and
splendor, and are interested only in their own and not in the common
interests of the State.

Economic crises have been producer by us for the GOYIM by no
other means than the withdrawal of money from circulation. Huge capitals
have stagnated, withdrawing money from States, which were constantly
obliged to apply to those same stagnant capitals for loans.

These loans burdened the finances of the State with the payment
of interest and made them the bond slaves of these capitals .... The
concentration of industry in the hands of capitalists out of the hands
of small masters has drained away all the juices of the peoples and with
them also the States ....

The present issue of money in general does not correspond with
the requirements per head, and cannot therefore satisfy all the needs of
the workers.
The issue of money ought to correspond with the growth
of population and thereby children also must absolutely be reckoned as
consumers of currency from the day of their birth. The revision of issue
is a material question for the whole world.

YOU ARE AWARE THAT THE GOLD STANDARD HAS BEEN THE RUIN OF THE
STATES WHICH ADOPTED IT, FOR IT HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO SATISFY THE DEMANDS
FOR MONEY, THE MORE SO THAT WE HAVE REMOVED GOLD FROM CIRCULATION AS FAR
AS POSSIBLE.

GENTILE STATES
BANKRUPT

With us the standard that must be introduced is the cost of
working-man power, whether it be reckoned in paper or in wood. We shall
make the issue of money in accordance with the normal requirements of
each subject, adding to the quantity with every birth and subtracting
with every death.

The accounts will be managed by each department (the French
administrative division), each circle.

In order that there may be no delays in the paying our of
money for State needs the sums and terms of such payments will be fixed
by decree of the ruler; this will do away with the protection by a
ministry of one institution to the detriment of others.

The budgets of income and expenditure will be carried out side
by side that they may not be obscured by distance one to another.

The reforms projected by us in the financial institutions and
principles of the GOYIM will be clothed by us in such forms as will
alarm nobody. We shall point out the necessity of reforms in consequence
of the disorderly darkness into which the GOYIM by their irregularities
have plunged the finances.

The first irregularity, as we shall
point out, consists in their beginning with drawing up a single budget
which year after year grows owing to the following cause: this budget is
dragged out to half the year, then they demand a budget to put things
right, and this they expend in three months, after which they ask for a
supplementary budget, and all this ends with a liquidation budget.

But, as the budget of the following year is drawn up in
accordance with the sum of the total addition, the annual departure from
the normal reaches as much as 50 per cent in a year, and so the annual
budget is trebled in ten years.

Thanks to such methods, allowed
by the carelessness of the GOY States, their treasuries are empty. The
period of loans supervenes, and that has swallowed up remainders and
brought all the GOY States to bankruptcy.

You understand perfectly that economic arrangements of this
kind, which have been suggested to the GOYIM by us, cannot be carried on
by us.

Every kind of loan proves infirmity in the State and a want of
understanding of the rights of the State. Loans hang like a sword of
Damocles over the heads of rulers, who, instead of taking from their
subjects by a temporary tax, come begging with outstretched palm of our
bankers.

Foreign loans are leeches which there is no possibility
of removing from the body of the State until they fall off of themselves
or the State flings them off. But the GOY States do not tear them off;
they go on in persisting in putting more on to themselves so that they
must inevitably perish, drained by voluntary blood-letting.

TYRANNY OF USURY

What also indeed is, in substance, a loan, especially a
foreign loan? A loan is - an issue of government bills of exchange
containing a percentage obligation commensurate to the sum of the loan
capital. If the loan bears a charge of 5 per cent, then in twenty years
the State vainly pays away in interest a sum equal to the loan borrowed,
in forty years it is paying a double sum, in sixty - treble, and all the
while the debt remains an unpaid debt.

From this calculation it is obvious that with any form of
taxation per head the State is baling out the last coppers of the poor
taxpayers in order to settle accounts with wealth foreigners, from whom
it has borrowed money instead of collecting these coppers for its own
needs without the additional interest.

So long as loans were internal the GOYIM only shuffled their
money from the pockets of the poor to those of the rich, but when we
bought up the necessary person in order to transfer loans into the
external sphere, all the wealth of States flowed into our cash- boxes
and all the GOYIM began to pay us the tribute of subjects.

If the superficiality of GOY kings on their thrones in regard
to State affairs and the venality of ministers or the want of
understanding of financial matters on the part of other ruling persons
have made their countries debtors to our treasuries to amounts quite
impossible to pay it has not been accomplished without, on our part,
heavy expenditure of trouble and money.

Stagnation of money will not be allowed by us and therefore
there will be no State interest-bearing paper, except a one per-cent
series, so that there will be no payment of interest to leeches that
suck all the strength out of the State.

The right to issue
interest-bearing paper will be given exclusively to industrial companies
who will find no difficulty in paying interest out of profits, whereas
the State does not make interest on borrowed money like these companies,
for the State borrows to spend and not to use in operations.

Industrial papers will be bought also by the government which
from being as now a paper of tribute by loan operations will be
transformed into a lender of money at a profit.

This measure
will stop the stagnation of money, parasitic profits and idleness, all
of which were useful for us among the GOYIM so long as they were
independent but are not desirable under our rule.

How clear is the undeveloped power of thought of the purely
brute brains of the GOYIM, as expressed in the fact that they have been
borrowing from us with payment of interest without ever thinking that
all the same these very moneys plus an addition for payment of interest
must be got by them from their own State pockets in order to settle up
with us. What could have been simpler than to take the money they wanted
from their own people?

But it is a proof of the genius of our chosen mind that we
have contrived to present the matter of loans to them in such a light
that they have even seen in them an advantage for themselves.

Our accounts, which we shall present when the time comes, in
the light of centuries of experience gained by experiments made by us on
the GOY States, will be distinguished by clearness and definiteness and
will show at a glance to all men the advantage of our innovations. They
will put an end to those abuses to which we owe our mastery over the
GOYIM, but which cannot be allowed in our kingdom.

We shall so hedge about our system of accounting that neither
the ruler nor the most insignificant public servant will be in a
position to divert even the smallest sum from its destination without
detection or to direct it in another direction except that which will be
once fixed in a definite plan of action.

And without a definite plan it is impossible to rule. Marching
along an undetermined road and with undetermined resources brings to
ruin by the way heroes and demigods.

The GOY rulers, whom we once upon a time advised should be
distracted from State occupations by representative receptions,
observances of etiquette, entertainments, were only screens for our
rule.

The accounts of favorite courtiers who replaced them in
the sphere of affairs were drawn up for them by our agents, and every
time gave satisfaction to short-sighted minds by promises that in the
future economics and improvements were foreseen .... Economics from
what? From new taxes? - were questions that might have been but were not
asked by those who read our accounts and projects.

You know to what they have been brought by this carelessness,
to what pitch of financial disorder they have arrived, notwithstanding
the astonishing industry of their peoples.

21. Loans and Credit

To what I reported to you at the last meeting I shall now add
a detailed explanation of internal loans. Of foreign loans I shall say
nothing more, because they have fed us with national moneys of the
GOYIM, but for our State there will be no foreigners, that is, nothing
external.

We have taken advantage of the venality of administrators and
slackness of rulers to get our moneys twice, thrice and more times over,
by lending to the GOY governments moneys which were not at all needed by
the States. Could anyone do the like in regard to us? .... Therefore, I
shall only deal with the details of internal loans.

States announce that such a loan is to be concluded and open
subscriptions for their own bills of exchange, that is, for their
interest-bearing paper. That they may be within the reach of all the
price is determined at from a hundred to a thousand; and a discount is
made for the earliest subscribers.

Next day by artificial means
the price of them goes up, the alleged reason being that everyone is
rushing to buy them. In a few days the treasury safes are as they say
overflowing and there's more money than they can do with. The
subscription, it is alleged, covers many times over the issue total of
the loan; in this lies the whole stage effect - look you, they say, what
confidence is shown in the government's bills of exchange.

But when the comedy is played out there emerges the fact that
a debit and an exceedingly burdensome debit has been created. For the
payment of interest it becomes necessary to have recourse to new loans,
which do not swallow up but only add to the capital debt.

And
when this credit is exhausted it becomes necessary by new taxes to
cover, not the loan, BUT ONLY THE INTEREST ON IT. These taxes are a
debit employed to cover a debit ....

Later comes the time for conversions, but they diminish the
payment of interest without covering the debt, and besides they cannot
be made without the consent of the lenders; on announcing a conversion a
proposal is made to return the money to those who are not willing to
convert their paper.

If everybody expressed his unwillingness
and demanded his money back, the government would be hooked on their own
files and would be found insolvent and unable to pay the proposed sums.

By good luck the subjects of the GOY governments, knowing
nothing about financial affairs, have always preferred losses on
exchange and diminution of interest to the risk of new investments of
their moneys, and have thereby many a time enabled these governments to
throw off their shoulders a debit of several millions.

Nowadays, with external loans, these tricks cannot be played
by the GOYIM for they know that we shall demand all our moneys back.

In this way in acknowledged bankruptcy will best prove to the
various countries the absence of any means between the interest of the
peoples and of those who rule them.

I beg you to concentrate your particular attention upon this
point and upon the following: nowadays all internal loans are
consolidated by so-called flying loans, that is, such as have terms of
payment more or less near.

These debts consist of moneys paid
into the savings banks and reserve funds. If left for long at the
disposition of a government these funds evaporate in the payment of
interest on foreign loans, and are placed by the deposit of equivalent
amount of RENTS.

And these last it is which patch up all the leaks in the State
treasuries of the GOYIM.

When we ascend the throne of the world all these financial and
similar shifts, as being not in accord with our interests, will be swept
away so as not to leave a trace, as also will be destroyed all money
markets, since we shall not allow the prestige of our power to be shaken
by fluctuations of prices set upon our values, which we shall announce
by law at the price which represents their full worth without any
possibility of lowering or raising. (Raising gives the pretext for
lowering, which indeed was where we made a beginning in relation to the
values of the GOYIM.)

We shall replace the money markets by grandiose government
credit institutions, the object of which will be to fix the price of
industrial values in accordance with government views.

These
institutions will be in a position to fling upon the market five hundred
millions of industrial paper in one day, or to buy up for the same
amount. In this way all industrial undertakings will come into
dependence upon us. You may imagine for yourselves what immense power we
shall thereby secure for ourselves.

22. Power of Gold

In all that has so far been reported by me to you, I have
endeavored to depict with care the secret of what is coming, of what is
past, and of what is going on now, rushing into the flood of the great
events coming already in the near future, the secret of our relations to
the GOYIM and of financial operations. On this subject there remains
still a little for me to add.

IN OUR HANDS IS THE GREATEST POWER OF OUR DAY - GOLD: IN TWO
DAYS WE CAN PROCURE FROM OUR STOREHOUSES ANY QUANTITY WE MAY PLEASE.

Surely there is no need to seek further proof that our rule is
predestined by God?
Surely we shall not fail with such wealth to
prove that all that evil which for so many centuries we have had to
commit has served at the end of ends the cause of true well-being - the
bringing of everything into order?

Though it be even by the
exercise of some violence, yet all the same it will be established. We
shall contrive to prove that we are benefactors who have restored to the
rent and mangled earth the true good and also freedom of the person, and
therewith we shall enable it to be enjoyed in peace and quiet, with
proper dignity of relations, on the condition, of course, of strict
observance of the laws established by us.

We shall make plain
therewith that freedom does not consist in dissipation and in the right
of unbridled license any more than the dignity and force of a man do not
consist in the right of everyone to promulgate destructive principles in
the nature of freedom of conscience, equality and a like, that freedom
of the person in no wise consists in the right to agitate oneself and
others by abominable speeches before disorderly mobs, and that true
freedom consists in the inviolability of the person who honorably and
strictly observes all the laws of life in common, that human dignity is
wrapped up in consciousness of the rights and also of the absence of
rights of each, and not wholly and solely in fantastic imaginings about
the subject of one's EGO.

One authority will be glorious because it will be
all-powerful, will rule and guide, and not muddle along after leaders
and orators shrieking themselves hoarse with senseless words which they
call great principles and which are noting else, to speak honestly, but
utopian ....

Our authority will be the crown of order, and in
that is included the whole happiness of man. The aureole of this
authority will inspire a mystical bowing of the knee before it and a
reverent fear before it of all the peoples. True force makes no terms
with any right, not even with that of God: none dare come near to it so
as to take so much as a span from it away.

23. Instilling Obedience

That the peoples may become accustomed to obedience it is
necessary to inculcate lessons of humility and therefore to reduce the
production of articles of luxury.
By this we shall improve morals
which have been debased by emulation in the sphere of luxury. We shall
reestablish small master production which will mean laying a mine under
the private capital of manufactures.

This is indispensable also
for the reason that manufacturers on the grand scale often move, though
not always consciously, the thoughts of the masses in directions against
the government.

A people of small masters knows nothing of
unemployment and this binds him closely with existing order, and
consequently with the firmness of authority. For us its part will have
been played out the moment authority is transferred into our hands.

Drunkenness also will be prohibited by law and punishable as a
crime against humanness of man who is turned into a brute under the
influence of alcohol.

Subjects, I repeat once more, give blind obedience only to the
strong hand which is absolutely independent of them, for in it they feel
the sword of defense and support against social scourges .... What do
they want with an angelic spirit in a king? What they have to see in him
is the personification of force and power.

The supreme lord who will replace all now existing ruler,
dragging in their existence among societies demoralized by us, societies
that have denied even the authority of God, from whose midst breads out
on all sides the fire of anarchy, must first of all proceed to quench
this all-devouring flame.

Therefore he will be obliged to kill
off those existing societies, though he should drench them with his own
blood, that he may resurrect them again in the form of regularly
organized troops fighting consciously with every kind of infection that
may cover the body of the State with sores.

This Chosen One of God is chosen from above to demolish the
senseless forces moved by instinct and not reason, by brutishness and
humanness.

These forces now triumph in manifestations of robbery
and every kind of violence under the mask of principles of freedom and
every kind of violence under the mask of principles of freedom and
rights.

They have overthrown all forms of social order to erect
on the ruins of the throne of the King of the Jews; but their part will
be played out the moment he enters into his kingdom. Then it will be
necessary to sweep them away from his path, on which must be left no
knot, no splinter.

Then will it be possible for us to say to the peoples of the
world: Give thanks to God and bow the knee before him who bears on his
front the seal of the predestination of man, to which God himself has
led his star that none other but Him might free us from all the
before-mentioned forces and evils.

24. Qualities of the Ruler

I pass now to the method of confirming the dynastic roots of
King David to the last strata of the earth.

This confirmation will first and foremost be included in that
which to this day has rested the force of conservatism by our learned
elders of the conduct of the affairs of the world, in the directing of
the education of thought of all humanity.

Certain members of the seed of David will prepare the kings
and their heirs, selecting not by right of heritage but by eminent
capacities, inducting them into the most secret mysteries of the
political, into schemes of government, but providing always that none
may come to knowledge of the secrets.

The object of this mode of
action is that all may know that government cannot be entrusted to those
who have not been inducted into the secret places of its art ....

To these persons only will be taught the practical application
of the aforenamed plans by comparison of the experiences of many
centuries, all the observations on the politico-economic moves and
social sciences - in a word, all the spirit of laws which have been
unshakably established by nature herself for the regulation of the
relations of humanity.

Direct heirs will often be set aside from ascending the throne
if in their time of training they exhibit frivolity, softness and other
qualities that are the ruin of authority, which render them incapable of
governing and in themselves dangerous for kingly office.

Only those who are unconditionally capable for firm, even if
it be to cruelty, direct rule will receive the reins of rule from our
learned elders.

In case of falling sick with weakness of will or other form of
incapacity. kings must by law hand over the reins of rule to new and
capable hands.

The king's plan of action for the current moment, and all the
more so for the future, will be unknown, even to those who are called
his closest counselors.

KING OF THE
JEWS

Only the king and the three who stood sponsor for him will
know what is coming.

In the person of the king who with unbending will is master of
himself and of humanity all will discern as it were fate with its
mysterious ways. None will know what the king wishes to attain by his
dispositions, and therefore none will dare to stand across an unknown
path.

It is understood that the brain reservoir of the king must
correspond in capacity to the plan of government it has to contain. It
is for this reason that he will ascend the throne not otherwise than
after examination of his mind by the aforesaid learned elders.

That the people may know and love their king, it is
indispensable for him to converse in the market-places with his people.
This ensures the necessary clinching of the two forces which are now
divided one from another by us by the terror.

This terror was indispensable for us till the time comes for
both these forces separately to fall under our influence.

The king of the Jews must not be at the mercy of his passions,
and especially of sensuality: on no side of his character must he give
brute instincts power over his mind. Sensuality worse than all else
disorganizes the capacities of the mind and clearness of views,
distracting the thoughts to the worst and most brutal side of human
activity.

The prop of humanity in the person of the supreme lord of all
the world of the holy seed of David must sacrifice to his people all
personal inclinations.

Our supreme lord must be of an exemplary
irreproachable.
