PROTOCOL No. 5
1. What form of administrative rule can be given to communities in
which corruption has penetrated everywhere, communities where riches
are attained only by the clever surprise tactics of semi- swindling
tricks; where looseness reigns: where morality is maintained by penal
measures and harsh laws but not by voluntarily accepted principles:
where the feelings towards faith and country are obligated by
cosmopolitan convictions? What form of rule is to be given to these
communities if not that despotism which I shall describe to you later?
We shall create an intensified centralization of government in order
to grip in our hands all the forces of the community. We shall
regulate mechanically all the actions of the political life of our
subjects by new laws. These laws will withdraw one by one all the
indulgences and liberties which have been permitted by the GOYIM, and
our kingdom will be distinguished by a despotism of such magnificent proportions as to be at any moment and in every place in a position to
wipe out any GOYIM who oppose us by deed or word.
2. We shall be told that such a despotism as I speak of is not
consistent with the progress of these days, but I will prove to you
that is is.
3. 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
4. Moreover, the art of directing masses and individuals by means of
cleverly manipulated theory and verbitage, by regulations of life in
common and all sorts of other quirks, in all which the GOYIM
understand nothing, belongs likewise to the specialists of our
administrative brain. Reared on analysis, observation, on delicacies
of fine calculation, in this species of skill we have no rivals, any
more than we have either in the drawing up of plans of political
actions and solidarity. In this respect the Jesuits
alone might have compared with us, but we have contrived to discredit
them in the eyes of the unthinking mob as an overt organization, while
we ourselves all the while have kept our secret
organization in the shade. However, it is probably all the same to the
world who is its sovereign lord, whether the head of Catholicism or
our despot of the blood of Zion! But to us, the Chosen People, it is
very far from being a matter of indifference.
5. 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.
6. 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
7. 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.
8. In ah 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.
9. We shall assume to ourselves the liberal physiognomy of ah parties,
of ah 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.
10. 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.
11. 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 ah the nations of
the world.
