This appears as Chapter 11 in my 2012 manuscript entitled Opening The Memory Hole, Reviewing Some Ignored But Important Historical Events And Personalities. At present time, I do not have a traditional publisher yet, but keep hoping! In the meantime, to receive this as an eBook or spiral-bound hardcopy book, email EagleRevisionist@aol.com.

The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion is a work published all over the world. In this chapter you’ll see the 1905 Russian version, the first U.S. editions, as well as books in Arabic, German, French, Polish and other languages.

 

 

      

“It is ... impossible for any intelligent person ... to read ... the Protocols ... without being astounded by their prophetic insight...    In truth, however, we do not need the Protocols ... to tell us of these things...    What interests me is what I have discerned of the organized use of evil to subvert Western civilization and bring our traditional values crashing to the ground so that a totally different, a blood-chilling and hateful influence may henceforth dominate the world...” A. K. Chesterton, “The Learned Elders and the BBC”. 

 

THE PLANS IN PROCESS ARE A WORK IN PROGRESS, CENTURIES OLD.

Part One of my studies on the Protocols is seen as Chapter 19 in my new 2011 book, From The Temple To The Talmud, Exploring Judaic Origins, History, Folklore And Tribal Traditions, published by The Barnes Review. Click to read a review and to order.

In it, we explore similar documents from medieval Spain. As we leaf through the pages of history, we discover others.

A PRECURSOR-PROTOCOL FROM 1860.

In the London Morning Post of 06 September 1920, another Protocol-like item was mentioned in regard to Adolphe Cremieux, founder of the proto-A.D.L., the French Alliance Israelite. This newspaper did a series of eighteen stories entitled “The Cause of the World’s Unrest”. Certain parts stand out.

“All Jews for one and one for all. The Union which we desire will not be a French, English, Irish or German Union, but a Jewish one, a universal one. ...you must always consider yourselves members of a Chosen Race. Let us avail ourselves of all circumstances. Our might is immense -- learn to adopt this might for our cause. What are you afraid of? Thus we find every tyrant backed by a Jew, as is every pope by a Jesuit. In truth, the cravings of oppressors would be hopeless and the practicability of war out of the question, if there were not an army of Jesuits to smother thought and a handful of Jews to ransack pockets.” New York Daily Tribune, 04 January 1856.

 

 

      

 

MORE PROTO-PROTOCOLS IN 1869.

Foreshadowing the later Protocols is the discourse of Rabbi Reichhorn at the funeral of Rabbi Simeon ben-Ihuda in Prague. Notes on this revealing speech were published in the 10 March 1921 issue of La Vielle France. Similar to the later Protocols, it is divided into 19 separate entries. Here are two that seem relevant.

“12. By our mockeries and our attacks upon them we shall make their priests ridiculous, then odious, and their religion as ridiculous an as odious as their clergy. Then we shall be masters of their souls.” This appears to have already happened. While at first glance it appears the Catholic Church did much of this to itself, a closer look behind the scenes indicates that they had some outside help.

“14. But above all let us monopolize education. By this means we spread ideas that are useful to us, and shape the children’s brains as suits us.” Now that many “public” schools have required “Holocaust Education” sessions, this too has come to pass. Birthing The Phoenix, Vol. 4, a part of The Phoenix Journals.

AND MORE PROTOCOLS.

In 1889, the Revue des Etudes Juives, financed by James Rothschild, published two documents putting The Protocols in perspective, and demonstrating that the Learned Elders of Zion have been carrying on their plan for centuries. This featured similar writings from medieval Spain. The historical saga of how the Protocols reached Russia continues, the documents surfacing in France in 1884 and 1896. Here is more about the provenance of these controversial writings, held to be a “forgery”.

“In 1884 the daughter of a Russian general, Mlle. Justine Glinka, was endeavoring to serve her country in Paris by obtaining political information, which she communicated to General Orgevskii (at that time Secretary to the Interior Director, General Cherevin) in St. Petersburg. For this purpose she employed a Jew, Joseph Schorst (alias Shapiro, whose father had been sentenced in London, two years previous, to ten years penal servitude for counterfeiting), member of the Mizraim Lodge in Paris. One day Schorst offered to obtain for her a document of great importance in Russia, on the payment of 2,500 francs. The sum being received from St. Petersburg was paid over and the document handed to Mlle. Glinka. Schrost fled to Egypt, where, according to French police archives, he was murdered.”

“She (Mlle Glinka) forwarded the French original, accompanied by a Russian translation to Orgevskii, who in turn handed it to his chief, General Cherevin, for transmission to the Tsar. But Cherevin, under obligation to wealthy Jews, refused to transmit it, merely filing it in the archives. On his death in 1896, he willed a copy of his memoirs containing the Protocols to Nicholas II.”

Here we learn facts usually not seen about the Protocols. First, the original document from the spy was in French, with a Russian translation. Most accounts date them only to Nilus, and do not speak of a French version. Nor do other sources demonstrate that suppression attempts went into play immediately when it was received in St. Petersburg. The saga continues, with the Protocols surfacing 1901-1906.

“In Germany, Anti-Semites were virtually a majority in the lower Diet, and in Vienna, Austrian Nationalist leader Karl Lueger had 56 seats against 71 liberals. And on 19 July 1896, Edmund de Rothschild who ran nine small show colonies in Palestine, granted an audience to Zionist Theodore Herzl, essentially telling him that his plans were unrealizable, and a possible threat to progress that had already been made. Baron Rothschild, however, failed to convince the nineteenth century Jewish zealot.” From a book called The Protocols, as quoted in Birthing The Phoenix, Vol. II, #223 of The Phoenix Journals.

“The public does not realize that in all the conflicts within nations and in the conflicts between nations there are, besides the people apparently responsible for them, hidden agitators who with their selfish plans make these conflicts unavoidable.... Everything that happens in the confused evolution of peoples is secretly prepared in order to ensure the dominion of certain people: it is these people, known and unknown, that we must find behind every public event.” Benjamin Disraeli.

 

      

 

THE PROTOCOLS ARE ACTIVE AND EFFECTIVE OCCULT WAR TACTICS AND STRATEGIES.

Julius Evola has many informative and illuminating things to say on the matter of the Protocols, beginnings with who is responsible for them, addressing among other things, the matter of those who source the Protocols to the writings of Maurice Joly. I have underlined some of his keynote points, and my occasional comments are in [brackets].

[Begin quoting from “The Occult War”, Chapter 13 in Men Among the Ruins.]

In this order of ideas, there is an interesting document known as The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion. I have discussed the nature and scope of this document in the introduction to its last Italian edition (Rome, 1937). Here I will only mention some fundamental points.

This document was purported to be a protocol stolen from a secret Judeo-Masonic organization and allegedly reveals a plan that was devised and implemented with the subversion and the destruction of traditional Europe in mind. Regarding the authenticity of the Protocols a rabid and complex debate has erupted, which can be dismissed, however, by [Rene] Guenon's correct observation that a truly occult organization, no matter what its nature, never leaves behind written documents or "protocols."

Thus, in the most favorable hypothesis, the Protocols could have been the work of someone who had contacts with some representatives of this alleged organization. However, we cannot agree either with those who wish to dismiss this document as a vulgar mystification, forgery, and work of plagiarism. The main argument adduced by the latter is that the Protocols reproduce and paraphrase in many parts the ideas found in a short book written by a certain Maurice Joly during the period of Napoleon's Second Empires. Allegedly, mysterious provocateurs of the Czar's secret police were responsible for writing the Protocols. This argument is truly irrelevant: those who decry plagiarism should keep in mind that this is not a matter of a literary work or of copyright. For example, when a general writes a plan, he could employ previous materials and writings as long as they contain ideas fit for his purpose.

[“PLAGIARISM” VIS-À-VIS REALITY.]

This would be a case of plagiarism, but it would not affect at all the question of whether or not this plan has really been conceived and carried out. Cutting short all this—that is, leaving aside the issue of the "authenticity" of the document in terms of real protocols stolen from an international secret organization—the only important and essential point is the following: this writing is part of a group of texts that in various ways (more or less fantastic and at times even fictional) have expressed the feeling that the disorder of recent times is not accidental, since it corresponds to a plan, the phases and fundamental instruments of which are accurately described in the Protocols.

In a sense, we can speak of a prophetic premonition. In any event, the value of the document as a working hypothesis is undeniable: it presents the various aspects of global subversion (among them, some aspects that were destined to be outlined and accomplished only many years after the publication of the Protocols) in terms of a whole, in which they find their sufficient reason and logical combination. …

 

      

 

[THE PROTOCOLS AND “ANTI-SEMITISM – “PLAYING INTO THE HANDS OF THE ENEMYY”?]

The Protocols at times even encourage the spread of anti-Semitism, while in other cases mention is made of the secret monopoly of the press and of the media in democratic countries as well as the power to paralyze or destroy the most prestigious banks. This power concentrates the rootless, financial wealth in a few hands, and through it controls peoples, parties, and governments. One of the most important objectives is to remove the support of spiritual and traditional values from the human personality, knowing that when this is accomplished it is not difficult to turn man into a passive instrument of the secret front's direct forces and influences. The counterpart of the action of cultural demoralization, materialization, and disorganization causes unavoidable social crises to grow increasingly worse and collective situations to grow increasingly desperate and unbearable; in this way, a final conflict will eventually be considered as the means to finally sweep away the last residual resistance.

It is difficult to deny that such a "fiction" exposed at the beginning of this century has indeed reflected and anticipated much of what has taken place in the modern world, not to mention the predictions of what is in store for us. It is therefore no surprise that the Protocols received so much attention from those movements of the past that intended to react against and stem the currents of national, social, and moral dissolution in their own day and age. However, these movements often upheld dangerously unilateral positions, due to the lack of adequate discernment; this was a weakness that, again, has played into the enemy's hands.

In relation to this, we must deal with the issue raised by this document concerning the leaders of the occult war. According to the Protocols, the leaders of the global plot are Jews who planned and undertook the destruction of the traditional and Christian European civilization in order to achieve the universal rule of Israel, or God's "chosen people." This is obviously an exaggeration. At this point we may even wonder whether a fanatical anti-Semitism, which always sees the Jew as a deus ex machina, is not unwittingly playing into the hands of the enemy.

One of the means employed by the occult forces to protect themselves consists of directing their opponents' attention toward those who are only partially responsible for certain upheavals, thus concealing the rest of the story, namely a wider sequence of causes. It could be shown that even if the Protocols were a forgery perpetrated by provocateurs, nonetheless they reflect ideas very congenial to the Law and spirit of Israel. Second, it is true that many Jews have been and still are among the promoters of modern disorder in its more radical cultural expressions, whether political or social. This, however, should not prevent a deeper analysis, capable of exposing forces that may have employed modern Judaism merely as an instrument. After all, despite the fact that many Jews are among the apostles of the main ideologies regarded by the Protocols as instruments of global subversion (i.e., liberalism, socialism, scientism, and rationalism), it is also evident that these ideas would have never arisen and triumphed without historical antecedents, such as the Reformation, Humanism, the naturalism and individualism of the Renaissance, and the philosophy of Descartes. Such phenomena cannot be attributed to Judaism, but rather point to a wider web of influences.

In the Protocols the concepts of Judaism and Masonry are interwoven; there-fore, in the literature that this text spawned, mention is often made in careless terms of a Jewish-Masonic plot. Here caution must be exercised. While recognizing the Jewish predominance in many sectors of modern Masonry, as well as the Jewish origin of several elements in the Masonic symbolism and rituals, the anti-Semitic thesis, according to which Masonry has been the creation and tool of Israel, must be rejected. Modern Masonry (with this designation I allude essentially to the Freemasonry that developed since the creation of London's Grand Lodge in 1717) has undoubtedly been one of the societies that promoted the modern political subversions, and especially their ideological background. However, here too the danger is to be distracted by explaining everything with the action of ordinary Masonry.

Among those who regard the Protocols as a forgery, there are some who have noticed that various ideas in this text are similar to those that have been implemented by centralizing and dictatorial regimes, so much so that the Protocols can be an excellent manual for those who wish to install a new Bonapartism or totalitarianism. This view is partially correct. This amounts to saying that the "occult war" should be conceived, from a positive point of view, within a wide and elastic context, and we should expose the part played in it by phenomena that are apparently contradictory and hardly reducible to the simplistic formula of a Jewish-Masonic global plot.

Regardless of the role played by Jews and Masonry in the modern subversion, it is necessary to recognize clearly the real historical context of their influence, as well as the limit beyond which the occult war is destined to develop by employing forces that not only are no longer those of Judaism and of Masonry, but that could even totally turn against them. To realize this, consider the law of the regression of the castes, which I have employed as a hermeneutic tool in my Revolt Against the Modern World in order to assess the effective meaning of history. From a civilization led by spiritual leaders and by a sacred regality, a shift occurred to civilizations led by mere warrior aristocracies; the latter were eventually replaced by the civilization of the Third Estate.

The last stage is the collectivist civilization of the Fourth Estate. When we reflect carefully on things, modern Judaism as a power (quite apart from the concomitant, widespread, and instinctive action of individual Jewish thinkers and writers) is inseparable from capitalism and finance, which fall within the civilization of the Third Estate. The same applies to modern Masonry, which prepared ideologically for and supported the advent of the Third Estate. Masonry still presents itself today as the custodian of the principles of the Enlightenment and the French Revolution, its doctrines acting as a kind of secular religion of modern democracy; its militant action has revealed and continues to reveal itself along this line, openly or in semisecret ways. All this falls within the penultimate phase; this phase, the overall cycle of democratic and capitalist civilization of the Third Estate, will eventually usher in the last collectivist phase, to which it has inadvertently opened the way. It is therefore logical that the role of a central guiding force of global subversion in this last period will no longer be played by Judaism or Masonry and that the main current may turn against both of these groups, as if they were residues to be liquidated once and for all; after all, this can be seen in countries in which regimes controlled by the Fourth Estate (i.e., Marxist regimes) are beginning to be consolidated, even though Jews and Masons contributed to their advent.

But then again, as far as the general radical Jewish-Masonic conspiracy thesis upheld in some milieus is concerned, the actual situation shows its inconsistency. It would be a real abandonment to fantasy to suppose that the leaders of the great conflicting powers—the United States, the USSR, and Red China—receive orders from an international center of Jews and Masons (almost nonexistent in China), and act accordingly in view of the same goal. Again, it is necessary to refer to a wider horizon of influences and to look elsewhere. [End quoting. Molte grazie, Barone Evola.]

 

      

 

REFLECTIONS.

While Evola is surely correct about ” a wider horizon of influences” pointing to more than a few other globalist cults and sects, it is difficult to ignore and overlook the pervasive and ill-intentioned efforts of anti-Western Talmudic Judaism and especially its political manifestation known as Zionism. Of course, the Zionists now have their independent nation state, so-called and self-styled as Israel, from which to launch and conceal its ever ongoing criminal crusade against western culture and civilization. Nonetheless, it has more than a few allies and co-conspirators. Regardless of where you look, the Protocols of Zion are a very basic text for a host of subversive plots and plans.

 

Well, it’s hard to bring this provocative topic to a close, but certain conclusions present themselves to discerning readers.

 

· The Protocols are a real and genuine plan in process by several secret societies and related plotters and provocateurs.

· One may use various and sundry names such as Globalists, One-Worlders, Illuminati, Freemasons, Jews, Zionists, various Mafias, Marxists, Bolsheviks, etc., et al. In reality, it makes little difference. Their intentions and aims are identical, seeking complete world domination. This is acted out in the political, governmental, cultural, racial, religious and spiritual spheres of human activity.

· Some of this is very much in a subterranean sphere, hidden from most of the largely nonobservant humans. Hence, Julius Evola, myself and others call this the Occult War.

· Nonetheless, the Protocols and plans at work in this conflict are not really all that hidden and hard to discover, especially once you know what to look for.

· So I challenge you. Become “occult detectives”. Now that you have the basic facts of the case for and against the Protocols, begin detecting and see what other clues you can discover.
