The principle factor of success in the political is the secrecy of its undertakings; the word
should not agree with the deeds of the diplomat.
We must compel the governments of the goyim to take action in the direction favored by our
widely conceived plan, already approaching the desired consummation, by what we shall
represent as public opinion, secretly prompted by us through the means of that so-called
“Great Power” – the Press, which, with a few exceptions that may be disregarded, is already
entirely in our hands.
In a word, to sum up our system of keeping the governments of the goyim in Europe in
check, we shall show our strength to one of them by terrorist attempts and to all, if we allow
the possibility of a general rising against us, we shall respond with the guns of America of
China of Japan.
PROTOCOL NO. 8
We must arm ourselves with all the weapons which our opponents might employ against us.
We must search out in the very finest shades of expression and the knotty points of the
lexicon of law justification for those cases where we shall have to pronounce judgments that
might appear abnormally audacious and unjust, for it is important that these resolutions
should be set forth in expressions that shall seem to be the most exalted moral principles
cast into legal form.
Our directorate must surround itself with all these forces of civilization
among which it will have to work.
It will surround itself with publicists, practical jurists,
administrators, diplomats and, finally, with persons prepared by a special super-educational
training in our special schools. These persons will have cognizance 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, shortcomings, vices and qualities, the particularities of classes
and conditions. Needless to say that the talented assistants of authority, of whom I speak,
will be taken not from among the goyim, who are accustomed to perform their administrative
work without giving themselves the trouble to think what its aim is, and never consider what
it is needed for.
The administrators of the goyim sign papers without reading them, and they
serve either for mercenary reasons or from ambition.
We shall surround our government with a whole world of economists.
That is the reason
why economic sciences form the principal subject of the teaching given to the Jews. Around
us again will be a whole constellation of bankers, industrialists, capitalists and – the main
thing – millionaires, because in substance everything will be settled by the question of
figures.
For a time, until there will no longer be any risk in entrusting responsible posts in our states
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 interest to their last gasp.
PROTOCOL NO. 9
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
