This is the second litigation announced against the Trump administration in a week.

“The new chief executive of VOA’s parent agency, a Trump appointee named Michael Pack, has stopped renewing visas, leaving 76 VOA employees like Segovia facing imminent removal — and undermining the agency’s ability to deliver news to non-English-speaking audiences around the world, staffers argue. Pack hasn’t said why.” —

Associated Press report yesterday gave new information that 16 VOA foreign correspondents, mainly from China and Indonesia, will be forced to return to their home countries in the next few weeks if they don’t get their visas renewed or extended. Associated Press doesn’t think they’ll have an easy time of it on their return, given their sensitive status as working for the U.S. government’s mouthpiece.

A WeChat users group that says it isn’t affiliated with the app’s owner filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration late Friday, seeking to block an executive order that would bar transactions with WeChat.

The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in San Francisco, claims the executive order is unconstitutional. It was filed by U.S. WeChat Users Alliance, a nonprofit organization, as well as other plaintiffs including a small business and several individuals.

Bloomberg reported that an army of corporate lobbyists are working with Team Trump to try and find a way to restrict WeChat’s use in the US without hamstringing every American company that depends on the app to connect with Chinese consumers.

According to sources from within the West Wing, the administration is still “working through the technicals” of how they’re going to restrict WeChat in the US while allowing American companies to liaise with it in foreign markets.

The Trump administration is signaling that U.S. companies can continue to use the WeChat messaging app in China, according to several people familiar with the matter, two weeks after President Donald Trump ordered a U.S. ban on the Chinese-owned service.

The administration is still working through the technical implications of how to enforce such a partial ban on the app, which is owned by Tencent Holdings Ltd., one of China’s biggest companies. A key question is whether the White House would allow Apple Inc. and Alphabet Inc.’s Google to carry the app in its global app stores outside of the U.S., according to the people, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

PROTOCOLS OF THE MEETINGS OF THE LEARNED ELDERS OF ZION
PROTOCOL No. 1

1. ….Putting aside fine phrases we shall speak of the significance of each thought: by comparisons and deductions
   we shall throw light upon surrounding facts.
2. 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].
3. 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.
4. What has restrained the beasts of prey who are called men? What has served for their guidance hitherto?
5. In the beginnings of the structure of society, they were subjected to brutal and blind force; afterwards – to Law,
   which is the same force, only disguised. I draw the conclusion that by the law of nature, right lies in force.
6. 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 if 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
7. 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.
8. 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 irretrievably 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.
9. 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?
10. 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.
11. 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.
    RIGHT IS MIGHT
12. 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.
13. Where does right begin? Where does it end?
14. 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.
15. 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.
16. 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.
17. 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.
18. 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 un-reasoning 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.
19. Only one trained from childhood for independent rule can have understanding of the words that can be made
    up of the political alphabet.
20. 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
21. 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.
22. 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.
23. 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.
24. 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
25. 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.
26. 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 GOY 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 natural 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.
27. 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.
28. 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.
29. 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.
    PROTOCOL No. 2
30. 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.
31. The administrators, whom we shall choose from among the public, with strict regard to their capacities for
    servile obedience, will not be persons trained in the arts of government, and will therefore easily become pawns
    in our game in the hands of men of learning and genius who will be their advisers, specialists bred and reared
    from early childhood to rule the affairs of the whole world. As is well known to you, these specialists of ours
    have been drawing to fit them for rule the information they need from our political plans from the lessons of
    history, from observations made of the events of every moment as it passes. The GOYIM are not guided by
    practical use of unprejudiced historical observation, but by theoretical routine without any critical regard for
    consequent results. We need not, therefore, take any account of them – let them amuse themselves until the hour
    strikes, or live on hopes of new forms of enterprising pastime, or on the memories of all they have enjoyed. For
    them let that play the principal part which we have persuaded them to accept as the dictates of science (theory). It
    is with this object in view that we are constantly, by means of our press, arousing a blind confidence in these
    theories. The intellectuals of the GOYIM will puff themselves up with their knowledges and without any logical
    verification of them will put into effect all the information available from science, which our AGENTUR
    specialists have cunningly pieced together for the purpose of educating their minds in the direction we want.
    DESTRUCTIVE EDUCATION
32. Do not suppose for a moment that these statements are empty words: think carefully of the successes we
    arranged for Darwinism (Evolution), Marxism (Communism), Nietzsche-ism (Socialism). 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.
33. 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.
34. 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 out 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.
    PROTOCOL No. 3
35. To-day 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.
36. 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.
37. 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 …
38. 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
39. 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
40. 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.
41. 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.
42. 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.
43. 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 Biblical “Anti-Christ?”)
44. 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
45. 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.
46. “OURS” THEY WILL NOT TOUCH, BECAUSE THE MOMENT OF ATTACK WILL BE KNOWN TO
    US AND WE SHALL TAKE MEASURES TO PROTECT OUR OWN.
47. 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.
48. When the populace has seen that all sorts of concessions and indulgences are yielded it in the 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 [the Philadelphes (ie.e French branch
    of the Illuminati)]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.
49. 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.
50. 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.
51. 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?
52. 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.
53. 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.
54. 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.
55. 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.
    PROTOCOL No. 4
56. 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.
57. 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
58. 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.
59. 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.
60. 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.
    PROTOCOL No. 5
61. 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
    loseness 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.
62. 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 it is.
63. 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
64. Moreover, the art of directing masses and individuals by means of cleverly manipulated theory and verbiage,
    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.
65. 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.
66. 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
67. 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.
68. 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.
69. 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.
70. 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.
71. 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. (League of Nations and subsequent United Nations
    Organization – Ed.).
    PROTOCOL No. 6
72. 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 … (Compulsory superannuation, Social Security).
73. You gentlemen here present who are economists, just strike an estimate of the significance of this
    combination! …
74. 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.
75. 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.
76. The aristocrats of the GOYIM, being hereditarily incapable of contenting themselves with little, will rapidly
    burn up and fizzle out.
    WE SHALL ENSLAVE GENTILES
77. 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.
78. 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.”
79. 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.
    PROTOCOL No. 7
80. 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.
81. 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
82. 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.
83. 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.
84. 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.
85. 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. (The Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905; Japan;
    Iraq and Afghanistan – Ed.).
    PROTOCOL No. 8
86. 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. (Genocide Convention? U.N. Declaration of the Rights of the Child?) 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 (Rhodes Scholars? London School of
    Economics?) 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, ( As Margaret Thatcher signed-away British sovereignty by the Maastricht Treaty?
    As Australian Parliamentarians signed over 2,000 U.N. Treaties . . . unread?) and they serve either for
    mercenary reasons or from ambition.
87. 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.
88. 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.
    PROTOCOL No. 9
89. 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.
90. 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. (Anti-Semitism is a mechanism devised and controlled by World Jewry).
    JEWISH SUPER-STATE
91. 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.
92. 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.
93. 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.
94. 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.
95. 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.
96. 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.
97. 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
98. 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.
99. 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.
100. This is the origin of the theory of course of arbitration.
101. 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 manoeuvre 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.
     PROTOCOL No. 10
102. To-day 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.
103. 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
104. 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.
105. 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.
106. 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.
107. 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 plottings. 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.
108. 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
109. 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.
110. 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.
111. 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
     “TALKERIES” 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
112. In the near future we shall establish the responsibility of presidents.
113. 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? …
114. 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
     same 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.
     (Iran? Grenada? Kuwait? Iraq? Panama? Somalia? Bosnia? Kosovo? Indonesia?)
115. It is easy to understand that 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.
116. 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, fall upon the responsibility established by us 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.
117. 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. (Presidential
     Decrees such as F.D.R. employed to debase the US dollar and steal the gold and to place the U.S. under a
     permanent State of Emergency and War against its own citizens?)
     WE SHALL DESTROY
118. 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.
119. 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.”
120. 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.
121. But if we give the nations of the world a breathing space the moment we long for is hardly likely ever to
     arrive.
     PROTOCOL No. 11
122. 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.
123. 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.
124. 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
125. 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? ….
126. 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 ….
127. It is not worth to say anything about how long a time they will be kept waiting for this return of their liberties
     ….
128. 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.
129. 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.
130. There now remains not much more for us to build up upon the foundation we have laid.
     PROTOCOL No. 12
131. The word “freedom,” which can be interpreted in various ways, is defined by us as follows –
132. 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.
133. We shall deal with the press in the following way: what is the part played by the press to-day? 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 lay 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
134. 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.
135. 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 ….
136. 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
137. 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. Before accepting any production for publication 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.
138. 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.
139. 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.
140. In the second rank will be the semi-official organs, whose part it will be to attack the tepid and indifferent.
141. In the third rank we shall set up our own, to all appearance, opposition, 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.
142. 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.
143. 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.
144. 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
145. 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 tranquillize 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.
146. 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.
147. 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.
148. 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.
149. 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.
     PROTOCOL No. 13
150. The need for daily bread 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.
151. From all this you will see that in securing 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
152. 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 unaccustomed 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.
153. 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, for truth is one, and in it there is no place for progress. Progress, like a fallacious idea, serves
     to obscure truth so that none may know it except us, the Chosen of God, its guardians.
154. 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.
155. 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?
     PROTOCOL No. 14
156. 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 tranquillity, though it be a
     tranquillity 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 tranquillity 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. (This “religion of Moses,” the so-called “Oral Torah” or Babylonian Talmud, is the antithesis of
     Moses and the Prophets).
     WE SHALL FORBID CHRIST
157. 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 …
158. 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.
159. 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.
160. 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.
     PROTOCOL No. 15
161. 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, like Waco? Randy Weaver? Port
     Arthur? Oklahoma?) 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.
162. Resolutions of our government will be final, without appeal.
163. 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
164. 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.
165. 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
166. 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 high conceit of themselves to which it gives birth, for that
     insensibly disposes them to assimulate 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 ….
167. 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
168. 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.
169. 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 unquestioning submission.
170. 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.
171. 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
172. 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.
173. 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 interests 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 educational basis of human life.
174. 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.
175. 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.
176. Let us borrow from the example of the results of these actions yet another lesson for our government.
177. 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
178. Our absolutism will in all things be logically consecutive and therefore in each one of its decrees our supreme
     will must 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.
179. We shall abolish the right of appeal, 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 quash 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.
180. 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 interrelation 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.
181. 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.
182. 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.
183. 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.
184. 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.
     PROTOCOL No. 16
185. In order to effect the destruction of all collective forces except ours we shall emasculate the first stage of
     collectivism – the UNIVERSITIES, by re-educating 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.
186. 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 pre-eminent 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.
187. 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
188. 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.
189. 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 THOSE 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.
190. 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.
191. 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.
192. 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.
     PROTOCOL No. 17
193. 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
     litigants; they will 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
194. WE HAVE LONG PAST TAKEN CARE TO DISCREDIT THE PRIESTHOOD OF THE “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 set clericalism and clericals into such
     narrow frames as to make their influence move in retrogressive proportion to its former progress.
195. 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. (Karl Rothschild
     acted as “peacemaker” between the Vatican and her enemies, loaning the Vatican five million pounds in a period
     of difficulty. Gregory XVI conferred a Papal decoration on Kalman Rothschild since when Rothschilds have been
     “Guardians of the Vatican Treasury”).
196. THE KING OF THE JEWS WILL BE THE REAL POPE OF THE UNIVERSE, THE PATRIARCH OF THE
     INTERNATIONAL CHURCH
197. But, IN THE MEANTIME, while we are re-educating 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 . . .
198. 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 . . . (Calling the Jim Jones massacre in
     Guyana a mass suicide, not a C.I.A./MK-ULTRA/U.S. Government massacre? Denying the massacre of the
     Branch Dravidian sect at Waco, Texas, was a needless and deliberate massacre by the B.A.T.F./F.B.I/C.I.A/U.S.
     Government).
199. 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 no development of abuses of this right.
200. 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.
201. JUST AS NOWADAYS OUR BRETHREN, ARE OBLIGED AT THEIR OWN RISK TO DENOUNCE TO
     THE KAHAL APOSTATES OF THEIR OWN FAMILY or members who have been noticed doing anything in
     opposition to the KAHAL, 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.
202. Such an organization will extirpate abuses of authority, of force, of bribery, everything in fact which we by
     our counsels, by our 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.
     (Janet Reno? B.A.T.F.? C.I.A.?)
     PROTOCOL No. 18
203. 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 … (Australia’s One Nation Party?
     A.D.L./B’nai B’rith activities against the peace?)
204. As the majority of conspirators act out 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 SECRET DEFENSE AND THEREBY WE SHALL BRING THE
     PROMISE OF AUTHORITY TO DESTRUCTION.
205. 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.
206. 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
207. 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 ….
208. OVERT DEFENSE OF THE KIND ARGUES WEAKNESS IN THE ORGANIZATION OF HIS
     STRENGTH.
209. 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 his existence that the people may be able to say: “If the king knew of this,” or: “the king will
     hear it.”
210. 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 ….
211. 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.
     PROTOCOL No. 19
212. 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.
213. 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.
214. 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 this category of crime with the disgrace attaching to every other and will brand it with the same
     contempt.
215. 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.
     PROTOCOL No. 20
216. To-day 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.
217. 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.
218. 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.
219. 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
220. The tax upon the poor man is a seed of revolution and works to the detriment of the State which in 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.
221. 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. (Now we know the purpose of the 16th Amendment!!)
222. 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.
223. 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.
224. 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.
225. 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.
226. 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.
227. 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.
228. Just strike an estimate of how many times such taxes as these will cover the revenue of the GOYIM States.
     WE CAUSE DEPRESSIONS
229. 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 bind 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.
230. 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.
231. 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.
232. 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.
233. 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 or extravagances.
234. 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.
235. Economic crises have been produced 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 …. (Now we know the purpose of the Federal Reserve Bank Corporation!!)
236. 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.
237. 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
238. 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.
239. The accounts will be managed by each department (the French administrative division), each circle.
240. In order that there may be no delays in the paying out 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.
241. The budgets of income and expenditure will be carried out side by side that they may not be obscured by
     distance one to another.
242. 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. (The United States was declared “bankrupt” at the Geneva Convention of 1929! [see 31 USC
     5112, 5118, and 5119).
243. You understand perfectly that economic arrangements of this kind, which have been suggested to the GOYIM
     by us, cannot be carried on by us.
244. 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 to 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
245. 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.
246. 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 wealthy foreigners, from whom it has borrowed
     money instead of collecting these coppers for its own needs without the additional interest.
247. 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 persons in order to transfer loans into the external sphere,
     (Woodrow Wilson and F.D. Roosevelt) all the wealth of States flowed into our cash-boxes and all the GOYIM
     began to pay us the tribute of subjects.
248. 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.
249. 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 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. (Now we know why President Kennedy
     was assassinated in 1963 when he refused to borrow any more of the “Bank Notes” from the bankers of the
     Federal Reserve Bank and began circulating non-interest bearing “Notes” of the “United States of America”!!!).
250. 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.
251. 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?
252. 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.
253. 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.
254. 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. (Is this why a “private
     corporation,” known as the “Internal Revenue Service,” is in charge of collecting the “payments” of the “Income
     Taxes” and the IRS always deposits those “payments” to the Federal Reserve bank and never to the Treasury of
     the United States??)
255. 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 demi-gods.
256. 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. (Like the
     House of Windsor (Guelph) and the rest of the “Black Nobility”?) 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 economies and improvements were foreseen …. Economies
     from what? From new taxes? – were questions that might have been but were not asked by those who read our
     accounts and projects.
257. 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 ….
     PROTOCOL No. 21
258. 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 the national moneys of the GOYIM, but for
     our State there will be no foreigners, that is, nothing external.
259. 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.
260. 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 (why then take it?) 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.
261. 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 ….
     (Hence THE CRY TO BALANCE THE BUDGET!)
262. 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 hoist on their own petard 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.
263. Nowadays, with external loans, these tricks cannot be played by the GOYIM for they know that we shall
     demand all our moneys back.
264. In this way in acknowledged bankruptcy will best prove to the various countries the absence of any means
     between the interests of the peoples and of those who rule them.
265. 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.
266. And these last it is which patch up all the leaks in the State treasuries of the GOYIM.
267. 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).
268. 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 ….
     PROTOCOL No. 22
     1 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.
269. 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.
270. 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. (The motto of the Freemasons – “Out of Chaos, Order”).
     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 the 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.
271. 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 nothing 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.
     PROTOCOL No. 23
272. 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 re-establish 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 the humanness of man who is turned into a brute under the influence of alcohol.
273. 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.
274. The supreme lord who will replace all now existing rulers, dragging in their existence among societies
     demoralized by us, societies that have denied even the authority of God, from whose midst breeds 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.
275. This Chosen One of God is chosen from above to demolish the senseless forces moved by instinct and not
     reason, by brutishness and not humanness. These forces now triumph in manifestations of robbery 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 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.
276. 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”.
     PROTOCOL No. 24
277. I pass now to the method of confirming the dynastic roots of King David to the last strata of the earth.
278. 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.
279. 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 ….
280. 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.
281. 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.
282. 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.
283. 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.
284. 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
285. Only the king and the three who stood sponsor for him will know what is coming.
286. 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.
287. 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.
288. 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.
289. This terror was indispensable for us till the time comes for both these forces separately to fall under our
     influence.
290. 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.
291. 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.
292. Our supreme lord must be of an exemplary irreproachability.
     Signed by the representative of
     Zion, of the 33rd Degree

The resolution by Senator John Cornyn, who is the Republican Senate Majority Whip, and Senator Mark Warner, who is ranking member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, follows instances of Chinese military forces harassing Indian patrols as well as increased troop deployments and infrastructure construction in contested areas.
These two morons on 8-14-20 introduced a resolution in the Senate condemning China’s aggression towards India to change the status quo at the Line of Actual Control between the two Asian giants.
