INTRODUCTION
By CoL. JOHN BEATY, author of The Iron Curtain Over America

To be of major significance, a book on the current world scene

must meet three requirements: (1) It must be the work of a person
who has been in an exceptional position for breaking through censorship and learning the truth; (2) it must be full and complete and
written fearlessly, with no effort to hide or gloss over the evil
deeds of any faction or minority; and (3) it must be written by one
who is skilled in the writer's art. ZION'S TROJAN HORSE, by
Jack Tenney, possesses the triple qualification.
(1) Ten years of arduous work in the California Senate as
Chairman of the Committee on Un-American Activities has given
Senator Tenney a great body of information on vital facts to which
newspaper columnists and other political writers, and even academic
historians, have no means of access. The reason is obvious. In
his strategic position, Senator Tenney not only had opportunities
denied to others for uncovering secret data; he even had the power
to force the disclosure of much information which would under no
circumstances have become known to a writer who was not in a
similar position of government authority.
(2) An author's inumbency in high office or in a strategic position does not, however, guarantee that his book is of major importance. Too many such personages have written books to throw a
smoke screen over their own surrenders to political expediency or
to alien pressure. Other authors have written books which purport
to cover the history of the past half century or to deal with the
foreign policy of the United States of America and yet, from fear
of an alien minority, make no reference whatever to Middle East,
Israel, Jews, Judaism, Khazars, or Zionism! These books name
names, but never the names of such history-making Jews as, for
example, the Rothschilds, Chaim Weizman, Samuel Untermeyer,
Stephen A. Wise, and Louis D. Brandeis-much less the names of
those Jews prominent in more recent times in atomic espionage; in
the U. S. executive departments, especially Treasury and State;
and above all, in the personal staffs of the last three Presidents of
the United States.
Books that leave out such topics and such names are worse
than useless. They are dangerous. They teach the reader to place
the blame for the world's perilous condition upon people of his own
creed and kind, and not where it belongs-upon scheming alien
manipulators. Such books present a picture as much distorted from
the truth as would be presented by a history of the U. S. Revolutionary War which made no reference to taxation without representation, the Declaration of Independence, and the Continental Congress; and made no mention of Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Hancock, or other men prominent at the time in influencing public opinion.
But how, the reader may ask, can one tell without reading it

176

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

whether a book by a seemingly authoritative author gives a full

coverage of its subject? Fortunately, there is an easy test. Consult
the index of each book which has attracted your attention. Make
your own comparison, and back the book of your choice. The merest
glance at the index of ZION'S TROJAN HORSE will show its full
and fearless coverage of all phases of its vital subject.
(3) Whatever a man's former position of authority and however
full his coverage of his subject, he cannot have maximum effectiveness unless he writes well. Senator Tenney writes with a confidence
and a zeal which the reader immediately senses and shares. Imbued
by the emotion of the author, the reader is swept forward through
the mass of details which fill the years between Karl Marx and
the present. He is both fascinated and terrifterl by the climactic
story of the growth of two tremendous forces, Communism and Zionism, so closely related in their objectives. The reader sees with the
horror which can be induced only by superb literary writing how
the aims of these two forces, Communism and Zionism, are alike
hostile to America as a nation and to the Christian civilization of
which our nation is the finest flower. The reader shares the
author's indignation at the subtle way in which Communism and
Zionism have played Christian nations against each other in bloody
conflict, and is appalled at the combination of subtle infiltration,
brazen bullying, and everlasting propaganda with which. these two
alien forces have ridden rough-shod over the world and hav~ demanded and secured in this country rights and privileges which
involve the destruction of America and the degradation of the
Christian West.
In Paradise Lost John Milton wrote the epic of the fall of man,
a fall which was engineered by an alien intruder into the Garden.
In ZION'S TROJAN HORSE, Jack Tenney has written of the fall
of American man, and of American women, too, under the blandishments, the bribes, and the intimidation of alien intruders into our
garden-spot, AJnerica. To read this great book is to arm yourself
with knowledge. With your increased knowledge you will feel
increased confidence and have a new power to go forth and defend
your country, your ideals, and your faith.

THE WANDERING JEW

I
THE WANDERING JEW
In Dispersion From the Beginning
Although few Jews can prove that their most remote ancestor
ever trod the soil of Palestine, Jewry has persisted in the fiction
of the Diaspora. It may be said that Jewry has been in dispersion
from the beginning. There were many more Jews in Alexandria
in 250 B.C. than there were in Jerusalem; Jews whose forbears
had not shared the Babylonian captivity; Jews who had no knowledge of Hebrew. Throughout the Roman empire, in Spain and
Africa, there were closely-knit communities of Jews who had
never known the land of Canaan. At the birth of Jesus of Nazareth
the Jews were the most racially mixed people on the face of the
globe.
Wherever a Jewish community existed, there also was the
Talmud.
Each community kept in close touch with Jerusalem. Wherever
a Jew wandered he found Jewish settlements and colonies: Religious
and educational organizations were founded and maintained long
before the Christian era. Financial assistance for Jerusalem was
a well established Jewish activity throughout the civilized world,
and political pressure and "back stair diplomacy" were fine Jewish
arts centuries before Titus destroyed Jerusalem and the Temple in

WAn

After the establishment of Christianity, Roman Jewry made

excellent use of its geographic position by interceding with the
Holy See on behalf of Jewry in trouble elsewhere in Christendom,
as it had done with the Roman emperors in the centuries before
Christ.
International Jewish conferences were held sporadically
throughout the world until about the 17th Century. They were
discontinued because of Gentile suspicions.
The Nineteenth Century witnessed the first open organizational
activities of modern world Jewry. British and French Jewry met
in a conference called by Sir Moses Monteftore and the Board of
Deputies of British Jews in 1840. Adolphe Cremieux <Isaac Moise)
attended this conference. The Board of Deputies of British Jews
thereafter undertook responsibility for Jews everywhere. The
[J'nai B'rith was founded in New York City in 1843 for the express
purpose of uniting the Jews of the world in one secret body. (See
Zion's Fifth Column.)

Jewish "emancipation" followed the Jew's emergence from the

Ghettos (which appears for the greater part to have been self

178

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

imposed segregation) and progressed at a rapid pace in Europe

from the time of Moses Mendelssohn.
Religious equality was a condition imposed by the Great Powers
of the Nineteenth Century for the independence of such states as
Serbia and Rumania. The Serbian Skttptshina, by unanimous vote
abolished the constitutional provision that limitei the political rights
of Serbian Jews. In Rumania most of the landed property of the
Rumanians was heavily mortgaged to Jews and Rumania moved
slowly in the fulfillment of the condition imposed. In October of
1879, however, a law was adopted conferring the privileges of
citizenship upon every foreigner in the country and restricting the
ownership of landed property to Rumanian citizens. A ten-year
probationary period between application for citizenship and its
actual attainment was a compromise which appears to have solved
the Rumanian problem and to have been acceptable to the Great
Powers.
Although Moses Mendelssohn (born Moses ben Mendel at
Dessau, September 6. 1729) advocated Jewish penetration of Christian society, he always remained a Jew in the ethnic sense. He
outwardly professed Judaism but at heart he was agnostic if not
atheistic. His first literary venture was a German translation of
Jean-Jacques Rousseau's "Discourse on the Origin of .Inequality
Among Men"-an onslaught on civilization which contends that the
savage state is superior. In founding the Hasr:ala movement Mendelssohn did not intend to advocate Jewish adherence to Christian
civilization; he proposed adaption, thereby uncovering "a world of
heretofore unheard-of possibilities where initiated Jews could exercise their influence." Mendelssohn has been called the Third Moses,
in that he brought the Jews out of their ghettos and showed them
the Promised Land,-and because of its method of penetration,
there are those who believe that Hascala was also the name of the
Jewish-Trojan horse.
In 1857 American Jewry exerted itself for the first time in
the United States as a minority pressure group. Protesting the
denial of residential and commercial rights to American Jews in
Switzerland, a convention was organized by American Jewry in
Baltimore. Rabbi Isaac M. Wise was selected as the spokesman of
the delegation by this meeting and directed to confer with President James Buchanan on the subject.
Meanwhile many Jews were attaining wealth and position
throughout the world. In 1828 Jews had been made eligible for
municipal offices in England. In 1858 they were admitted to the
House of Commons. Baron Nathan de Roth3child was the first
Jew who walked the halls of Westminster. There has never .been
any prohibition against Jews holding public office in the United
States.
The Mortara Affair in 1860 resulted in the creation of the

IN DISPERSION FROM THE BEGINNING

179

Alliance Israelite Universelle in France by Adolphe Cremieux. The

organization dedicated its efforts to "the emancipation of our

brethern who still suffer under the burden of discriminatory legislation", and it purported to be international in both its objectives
and its membership.
The Board of Delegates of American Israelites was organized
at a convention in New York City November 2. 1859. The purposes
of this organization were, like all the others, strictly Jewish and
in behalf of Jewry. It called for "the maintenance of friendly
relations with similar Hebrew organizations throughout the world"
and the "redress of grievances" of Israelites everywhere. In 1878
the organization merged with the Union of American Hebrew Congregations.

Jewish organizations began to emerge throughout the world

after 1860. The Anglo-Jewish Association came into existence in
England in 1871. In Austria, in 1872, the Israelitische Allianz was
born. The Hilfsverein der deutschen Juden was organized in 1901
ostensibly in behalf of the Jews in Eastern Europe and Asia.
The Nineteenth Century witnessed the quiet mobilization of
world Jewry;-an accelerating mobilization that passed from the
religious atmosphere of the synagogue to the public forum of
international politics with increasing clamor and tumult. The
legend of "religious persecution" was carried over into the political
arena of the Twentieth Century under a new and more potent
appellation-"anti-Semitism." It was to be the central theme of
Herzl's argument for a Jewish state-and he would,-unintentionally
perhaps-place the blame on the Jews themselves. "The Jewish
question," he wrote, "exists wherever Jews live in perceptible numbers. Where it does not exist. it is carried by Jews in the course of
their migrations. We naturally move to those places where we
are not persecuted, and there our presence produces persecution.
This is the case in every country, and will remain so . . . till the
Jewish question finds a solution on a political basis."
The American Jewish Cornmittee was organized in New York
City in 1906. Some Jewish authorities contend that this group grew
out of the National Committee for the Relief of Sufferers by Russian
Massacres established in 1903 by Oscar S. Straus, Jacob H. Schiff
and Cyrus L .. Sulzberger, but there is much evidence to indicate
that its creation was prompted by other considerations. It is very
interesting to note, in passing, that the membership of the American
Jewish Committee was held at fifty until comparatively recent times.
Jewish authorities have referred to the "Fabian policy" adopted by
the American Jewish Committee, a term which denotes a cautious,
- ....._gradualistic approach to an objective. This policy may account
for the careful limitation of membership for so many years, and
is in keeping with the historical and time-honored Jewish practice
of individualshtadlanim;-"backstair secret diplomacy."

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

The Chosen People

The Bible tells us that when Abram was ninety-nine years old
Jehovah appeared to him and, after changing his name to Abraham,
established a covenant which was to be everlasting between Jehovah
and Abraham's seed: "And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed
after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of
Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God."
Upon this theme orthodox Jewry has reared the fiction that the
Jews are the Chosen People of God and that all other peoples are
outside His favor. "The forces (wealth) of the Gentiles shall come
to thee ... and the sons of strangers shall build up thy walls, and
their Kings shall minister unto thee ... Thou shalt suck the milk
of the Gentiles," and "ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles. and
in their glory shall ye boast yourselves ... " are samples of Biblical
promises that Jewish rabbis have taken to heart literally.
The Talmud is the culmination of the development of Jewish
traditionalism. Dr. Henry H. Milman refers to the Talmttd as "that
wonderful monument of human industry, human wisdom, and
human folly." It has been characterized as "the most irresistible
organ ever forged for the subjugation of the human will." It is,
without question, an important factor in any study of the phenom
enon of organized Jewry's dynamic drive for world power.
What is the Talmudf
Said Benjamin Disraeli, himself a Jew: "Here ... we find a
prodigious mass of contradictory opinions, an infinite number of
casuistical cases, a logic of scholastic theology. some recondite
wisdom, and much rambling dotage; many puerile tales and oriental
fancies; ethics and sophisms, reasonings and unreasonings, subtle
solutions, and maxims and riddles; nothing in human life seems
to have happened which these doctors have not perplexed or provided against, for their observations are as minute as Swift exhausted in his 'Directions to Servants.' The children of Israel,
always children, were delighted as their Talm?'d increased in volume, and their hardships. The Gemara was a third law to elucidate
the Mishna, which was a second law, and which had thrown the
first law, the law of Moses, into obscurity."
Wrote Dr. Izaak Da Costa: "The Talmud is an immense heap
of rubbish, at the bottom of which a few bright pearls of Eastern
wisdom are to be found. No book has ever expressed more faithfully the spirit of its authors. This we notice the more when com
paring the Talmud with the Bible-the Bible, that Book of books,
given to, and by means of, the Israel of God; the Talmud, the book
composed by Israel Without their God, in the time of their dispersion,
their misery, and their degeneracy.''
Dr. Milman, in his History of the Jews: "The reader, at each
successive extract from this extraordinary compilation hesitates

THE CHOSEN PEOPLE

181

whether to admire the view of profound allegorical truth and the

pleasing moral apologue, to smile at the monstrous extravagance.
or to shudder at the daring blasphemy. The influence of the Talmud
on European superstitions, opinions. and even literature remains
to be traced. To the Jew the Talmud became the magic circle within
which the national mind patiently labored for ages in performing
the bidding of the ancient and mighty enchanters, who drew the
sacred line beyond which it might not venture to pass."
Dr. Edersheim (Life and Times of Jesus the Messiah) described
it thus: "If we imagine something combining law reports, a Rab
binical 'Hansard', and notes of a theological debating club-all thoroughly oriental, full of digressions, anecdotes, quaint sayings, fancies, legend, and too often of what, from its profanity, supersition
and even obscenity could scarcely be quoted, we may form some
general idea of what the Talmud is."
Dr. Phillip Schaff (History of the Christian Church): "The
Talm1td is the slow growth of several centuries. It is a chaos
of Jewish learning, wisdom, and folly, a. continent of rubbish, with
hidden pearls of true maxims and poetic parables. It is the Old
Testament misinterpreted and turned against the New, in fact,
though not in form. It is a Rabbinical Bible without inspiration,
without the Messiah, without hope. It shares the tenacity of the
Jewish race ... The Talmud is the Bible of Judaism separated from,
and hostile to Christianity, but it barely notices it except indirectly.
It completed the isolation of the Jews from all other people."
Says Louis Finkelstein in the Foreword to the First Edition of
The Pharisees (Morris Loeb Series, Jewish Publication Society of
America): "Pharisaism became Talmudism, Talmudism became
Medieval Rabbinism, and Medieval Rabbinism became Modern
Rabbinism. But throughout these changes of name, inevitable adaptation of custom, and adjustment of Law, the spirit of the ancient
Pharisee survives unaltered. When the Jew reads his prayers, he
is reciting formulae prepared by pre-Maccabean scholars; when
he dons the cloak prescribed for the Day of Atonement and Passover Eve, he is wearing the festival garment of ancient Jerusalem;
when he studies the Talmud, he is actually repeating the arguments used in the Palestinian academies. Nor is it merely the outer
accoutrements of Pharisaism which have survived in his life; the
spirit of the doctrine has remained quick and vital."
In a First Edition of the Babylonian Talmud "revised and corrected" by Dr. Isaac M. Wise, President of the Hebrew Union College, we find the following in the Editor's Preface: "The Talmud
is free from the narrowness and bigotry with which it is usually
charged, and if phrases used out of their context, and in a sense
the very reverse from that which their author intended, are quoted
against It, we may be sure that those phrases never existed in the

182

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

original Talmud, but are the later additions of its enemies and such
as never studied it."
In order to discredit Jewish testimony concerning the Talmud
Rabbi Wise writes: "The attacks on the Talmud have not been mad~
by the enemies of the Jews alone. Large numbers of Jews themselves repudiate it, denying that they are Talmud Jews, or that they
have any sympathy with it. Yet there ar~ only the few Karaites in
Russia and Austria, and the still fewer Samaritans in Palestine,
who are really not Talmud Jews. Radical and Reform, Conservative and Orthodox, not only find their exact counterparts in the
Talmud, but also follow in many important particulars the practices instituted through the Talmud . . . The modern Jew is the
product of the Talmud ... "
In the Introduction to The History of the Talmud we learn that
the Talmud has been the victim of continuous persecution. "During
the twenty centuries of its existence," says the Introduction, "not
one of them has passed without great and powerful enemies vying
with each other and exhausting every effort to destroy it; still it
survived in its entirety, and not only has the power of its foes failed
to destroy even a single line, but it has not even been able materially
to weaken its influence for any length of time. It still dominates
the minds of a whole people, who venerate its contents as divine
truth, and countless numbers have sacrificed their lives and their
possessions to save it from perishing."
The first allegedly to persecute the Talmud were the Seleucidae
(in the time of Antiochus Epiphanes), the Roman Emperor Nero,
Domitian, Hadrian, the Samaritans, the Sadducees, Boethuseans, the
Christians, and all sects opposed to the Pharisees. Before the
Popes, Justinian decreed capital punishment to those who studied
it. Says our historian: "From the time of Pope Innocent III, the
Talmud was burned at the stake in nearly every century from the
11th to the 18th, in Italy, France, Germany, Spain, and many other
countries, and in the 18th, also in Poland by the Frankists, by
Bishop Dembovski, where copies were dragged through the city,
tied to horses' tails and then delivered to the executioner to be
burned at the stake in Kamenetz, Lemberg, Brody and elsewhere.
In most places, before it was resolved what was to be done with
the Talmud, the Israelites were forced to dispute with its enemies,
and had to pay heavy fines for arriving late to the dispute, as well
as for being vanquished in argument, the judges being their
enemies."
The Jewish historians always omit the reasons for Christian
objection to the Talmud They charge persecution of the Talmud
in the same manner as so-called Jewish "defense agencies" charge
"anti-Semitism." Is the Talmud, like the Jews, without fault?
We think not. It accounts in great measure for Gentile reaction
toward Jewry through the centuries. Says a writer in the Edinburgh Review: "When we sound the sombre, exclusive, pitiless

THE CHOSEN PEOPLE

183

depth of the inner doctrine of the Talmud, we see that a reason

exists for that marked and secular demarcation between the Jew
and the Gentile, for which we were about to blame our own intolerance. Purposely and rigidly, in exile no less than in the splendor
of the theocratic polity, has the hand of the Jew been directed by
the depositaries of his traditions against every man. It is the law
of self-defense that has raised the hand of every man against him.
Our ancestors were not, after all, so blindly cruel as some writers
are too ready to admit. Offers of friendship and of brotherhood
are as powerless as are the fires of the Inquisition to break down
that moral wall, substantial as the very fortress wall of the Temple,
that resisted the voice of Christ, and that has been strengthened
by the constant efforts of the doctors of the Talmud for five centuries after the fall of Jerusalem. The power of resistance is the
same at this moment that it was two thousand years ago. The point
of attack is still the same as in the days of Herod. To the question
'Who is my neighbor?' the Talmud returns one reply, and the parable of the Good Samaritan another. The mercy to be shown, as
Moses taught, to the stranger, is qualified by the Halaca by the
assumption that he must also be a proselyte. All questions as to
which accord would be otherwise possible, \Vhether in the historic
past, or the dimly predicted future, are insoluble, while the justice,
mercy, and truth-the weightier matters of the Law-are, by the
guardians of the Law of Moses, confined to those of their own faith
and blood. The vitality of Judaism was contained in the doctrine,
that the Jews had one father, even God. The hope of the future
of humanity lies in the good tidings that God is the common Father
of mankind."

In the Thirteenth Century, a Jew named Donin was excommunicated by the rabbis because he "appeared" to rebel against Judaism. In Rome in 1239, under the name of Nicolus, Donin charged
that the Talmud contained sacriligious references to Jesus Christ
and the Virgin Mary, and so distorted the Scriptures by its interpretations and comments that thereby the Deity was blasphemed.
Donin further charged that the Talmud gave license to illegally
deprive Gentiles of their property and granted permission to deceive them. In short he charged in thirty-five counts that the
Talmud was the enemy of Christianity.
Nicolus Donin met with certain Jewish rabbis in Paris in 1240
and debated the charges against the Talmud made by Donin the
year before in Rome before Saint Louis and his court. Rabbi
Jechiel, the most prominent of the rabbis, would not admit that the
Jesus referred to in the Talmud was Jesus of Nazareth. but maintained that he was another Jesus. Modern Jewish scholars appear
to disagree with Rabbi Jechiel. Wrote Dr. Levin (Die Religions
Disputation des R. Jechiel von Paris, etc.): "We must regard the

184

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

attempt of R. Jechiel to ascertain that there were two by the name

of Jesus as unfortunate, original as the idea may be."
Donin presented Kol Nidre, a Jewish prayer, as evidence of
the immorality of Jewry. Kol Nidre is invoked by the Jews at
the beginning of the evening service of the Day of Atonement and
(the Hebrew version) repudiates all vows, oaths, and obligations
made by the supplicant since the last Day of Atonement. The Aramaic version repudiates all vows, etc. to be made during the coming
year.) Rabbi Jecheil was unable to offer any plausible defense.
The meeting between Donin and the rabbis evidently convinced
the authorities that Donin was right and that the rabbis were
wrong. Wagon-loads of Talmuds were burned in Paris in 1242 and
Christendom was evidently convinced that Donin's allegations were
true. Whatever else may be said of the Talmnd all impartial authorities appear to agree that it contains, in addition to offensive
passages, many bad features. It is therefore not surprising that
it was so often burned. The Bible has also been burned. In the
ages of ignorance books of all kinds were held in awe and were
believed t~ be possessed of supernatural powers ;-powers for either
good or bad. The good books were held in reverence, and the evil
books were destroyed. If the Talmud was against Christianity and
contained blasphemies against its doctrines; if it taught a double
standard of ethics and morality-one for the Jew and his relationship with Jews and a different one for the Jews relationship with
Christians, then to the medieval mind, it had to be destroyed. And,
of course, the Jews would burn the Christian Bible if they were able
to do so. The Jewish Encyclopedia quotes R. Tarfon as declaring:
"The writings of the minim deserve to be burned, even though the
name of God occurs therein ... "
In the Jewish year 5391 (1631 A.D.) a council of Jewish elders
convened in Poland and addressed a circular letter to the several
Jewish communities. It reads as follows: "Great peace to our
beloved brethren of the house of Israel.-Having received information that many Christians have applied themselves with great
care to acquire the knowledge of the language in which our books
are written, we therefore enjoin you, under the penalty of the great
ban (to be inflicted upon such of you as shall transgress this our
statute), that you do not in any new edition either of the Mishna
or Gemara, publish anything relative to Jesus of Nazareth; and you
take special care not to write anything concerning him; either
good or bad, so that neither ourselves nor our religion may be
exposed to any injury. For we know what those men of Belial, the
mumrim,. have done to us, when they became Christians, and how
their representations against us have obtained credit. Therefore, let
this make you cautious. If you should not pay strict attention to

THE CHOSEN PEOPLE

185

this our letter, but act contrary thereto, and continue to publish
our books in the same manner as before, you m;ty occasion, both to
us and yourselves, greater afflictions than we have heretofore
experienced, and be the means of our being compelled to embrace
the Christian religion, as we were formerly; and thus our latter
troubles might be worse than the former. For these reasons we
command you that if you publish any new edition of those books,
let the places relating to Jesus of Nazareth be left in blank, and
fill up the space with a circle like this 0. But the rabbins and
teachers of children will know how to instruct the youth by word
of mouth.... "
In the Foreword by Chief Rabbi Dr. J. H. HPrtz to the Soncino
edition of the Babylonian Talmud (London, 1935) he states that
"all the censored passages reappear in the Text or Notes." He
concludes his Foreword by stating that "never before has there
appeared a translation of the Order Nezikin as helpful to the
student as these volumes of the Soncino edition of the Babylonian
Talmud in English."
It is now apparently admitted by Jewish writers that the word
min (plural minim), so often mentioned in the Talmud, denotes the
Christians, while minuth means Christianity. The Jewish Encyclo
pedia states that its etymology is obscure. It probably was first
applied to those Jews who embraced Christianity "just as 'goy',
which in _the Bible has only the meaning of 'nation' took later the
sense of 'non-Jew'." It was forbidden to partake of meat, bread.
and wine with the min. Scrolls of the Law, telfillin and mezuzot
written by a min were burned. An animal slaughtered by a min was
forbidden food. The relatives of the min were not permitted to
observe the laws of mourning after his death, but were required to
assume festive garments and rejoice. The testimony of the min
was not admitted in evidence in Jewish courts. An Israelite who
found anything belonging to one who was a min was forbidden to
return it to him. (The Jewish Encyclopedia was prepared by "more
than four hundred scholars and specialists" under the direction
of an Editorial Board composed of the following: Cyrus Adler,
Welhelm Bacher, Gottard Deutsch, Richard Gottheil, Emil G. Hirsch,
Joseph Jacobs. Kaufmann Kohler, Herman Rosenthal, Isidore Singer
and Crawford H. Tay. Isaac K. Funk was Chairman of the B_oard
Frank H. Vizetelly was Secretary of the Board, and William
Papper was Associate Revising Editor.)
Gentiles (non-Jews )are classed as "barbarians", although the
Jewish Encyclopedia states that Rabbinical interpretation of
Ezekial XXXIV;31, "And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, are
men" holds that only Israelites are men. This interpretation makes
Gentiles something less than men; lower animals; cattle. Gentiles
might claim no right under Jewish civil laws. Says the Jewish

186
~ncyclopedia:

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

"It follows that the Gentiles were excepted from

the general civil laws of Moses." The Mishnah decrees that if a
Gentile sue an Israelite, the verdict is for 'the defendant; if the
plaintiff is an Israelite against a Gentile the Israelite is to obtain
full damages. The Talm.ud provides that where an ox belonging
to an Israelite has gored an ox belonging to a Canaanite (Gentile),
there is no liability, whereas where an ox belonging to a Canaanite
gores an ox belonging to an Israelite, compensation is to be made
in full.
The following is from the Jewish Encyclopedia:
"The Talmud relates in this connection that the Roman government once commissioned two officers to question the Rabbis and
obtain information regarding Jewish laws. After a careful study,
they said: 'We have scrutinized your laws and found them just,
save the clause relating to a Gentile's ox, which we can not comprehend. If, as you say, yo~ are justified by the term "neighbor",
the Gentile should be quit when defendant as well as when plaintiff.' The Rabbis, however, feared to disclose the true reason for
outlawing the Gentiles as barbarians and rested on the textual
technicality in the Mosaic law, in accordance with which they
had authority to act in all cases coming within their jurisdiction.''
Where a Jew sells a Gentile landed property bordering on the
land of another Jew, he shall be excommunicated because the Jewish
neighbor may claim "thou hast caused a lion to lie on my border:
The Talmud Rabbis believed that all property in the hands of
Gentiles was seized property and therefore considered "public
property, like unclaimed land in the desert" and that Israel could
take the land as conquerors. "And thou shalt consume all the
people which the Lord thy God shall deliver thee; thine eyes
shall have no pity upon them ... for thou art an holy people unto
the Lord thy God: the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a special
people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of
the earth.'' (Deuteronomy VII; 16,6.)
The Jewish Encyclopedia states: "The Torah outlawed the issue
of a Gentile as that of a beast. . . . A Gentile woman was not
a!lowed to suckle a Jewish babe, save in the presence of Jews.
Even so it was feared that the Gentile nurse might poison the
child ... The Talmud comments on the untruthfuiness of Gentiles
... 'A band of strange children whose mouth speaketh vanity and
their right hand is a right hand of falsehood'.''
The Jewish law against overcharging one-sixth or more above
the current price of marketable merchandise applied only to a Jew
and not to a Gentile. "Samuel declared legal a transaction in which
an error has been made by miscalculation on the part of a Gentile.
Following out his theory, Samuel was unscrupulous enough to
purchas~ from a Gentile a gold bar for four zuz, which was the

THE CHOSEN PEOPLE

187

price cf an iron bar; he even beat down the price one zuz. Such
transactions, while regarded as perfectly proper and legitimate
among Gentiles, were not tolerated among the Jews themselves."
(Jewish Encyclopedia.)
Simon ben Yohai is considered the most fanatical of the antiGentile teachers. He is the author of the expression "tab shebegoyim harog" which is translated by Jewish Encyclopedia editors
af' "the best among the Gentiles deserves to be killed." These
same translators admit that various versions of Simon ben Yohai's
saying is rendered "Egyptians" instead of "Gentiles". The Gentiles,
aecording to this venerable Talmudian, "resemble the easy-going,
selfish dog," whereas "Israel is like the patient ass."
Judah ben 'Illai recommended the daily recital of the "benedictinn": -"Blessed be thou . . . who hast not made me a goi" and
expressed the pious prediction that the Gentil~s "will ultimately
come to shame."
Much more might be offered, both from the Talmud itself (the
oflicial Soncino edition) and from authoritative Jewish translators
and writers, but the foregoing should suffice for an understanding
of 1 he official sources of anti-Gentilism. Most material used here
is taken from the Jewish Encyclopedia rather than from the Talmud
so that it cannot be said that the sense of the citation is distorted,
taken out of context or prejudicially interpreted. It is to be expected
that all religious movements, sincerely and deeply advocated,
exclude the disbelievers from its theories of salvation and that the
mlherPnts of each movement, to a greater or lesser extent, look
upon those outside the faith with distaste and loathing. Few religious movements, however, exclude all peoples on the basis of
race. The proselyte, regardless of ethnic origin, is usually weleomed warmly into the brotherhood of the "true faith" whatever
it might be. This certainly is not the spirit of the Talmud, no
matter how it is interpreted and its occasional contradiction to the
contrary notwithstanding. Its faith is not only in Jehovah; it is
in the one-people who enjoy an everlasting covenant with Him. It
is a race-superiority concept that soars over and beyond anything
Pver conceived by the world's Hitlers;-a concept that bases its
daim on Holy Scripture and divides the world into two classes-the
Israelites and "cattle."
The influence of the Talmud upon the Jews of the world is
probably incapable of estimation. To say that its influence has
been great would be a gross understatement. Its profound effect
on the minds of the savage Khazars of Mongolian Russia is apparent
in the activities of their descendants;-in the incessant drive of
Socialist-Communist Jews and organized Zionists for world conquest
and domination. No treatise on this subject may properly ignore
the racism of the Talmud.

188

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

"The TaZmuil," said a writer in the Edinburgh, Review "not

only awaits the infant at birth and regulates every incident of that
event (even to the names of angels that are to be inscribed on
the door, and the words on the four corners of the apartment), but
anticipates each circumstance from the earliest moment of probability. In every relation of life, in every action, in every conceivable circumstance-for food, dress, habit, language, devotion, relaxation-it prescribes almost every word to be uttered, and almost
every thought to be conceived. Its rule is minute, omnipresent, inflexible. Its severity is never relaxed. To borrow an illustration
from the founder: the Jewish mind, subjected while in a fusible
state to this iron mould, has been at once chilled and case-hardened
by its pressure."

II
THE TERRIBLE POWER OF THE PURSE
Theodor Herzl, speaking of the Jews, declared: "When we sink,
we become a revolutionary proletariat, the subordinate officers of
all revolutionary parties, and at the same time, when we rise, there
rises also our terrible power of the purse."
It is interesting to note that Herzl did not say "when some
Jews sink" or "when some Jews rise." He specifically said "when
we sink" and "when we rise." He was thinking of the "Jewish
nation" and not of Jewish individuals. He conceived a race movement toward a common objective. Whether or not Jews blasted
tneir way by force and violence through Christian barriers; bought
and bribed their way, or combined both methods for the attainment
of the common objective mattered not at all to Herzl. He was
neither moralizing nor speculating. He was merely stating an historical fact and issuing a directive to world Jewry. This combination of the "terrible power of the purse" and "the revolutionary
proletariat" was to achieve world-shaking significance in the Russian
Revolution.
The Jewish revolutionary proletariat developed significance
with the rise of the terrible power of the Jewish purse. Without
the assistance of Jewish bankers the Jewish revolutionary leader
of the Red Army, Trotsky, would have failed. Without the "terrible
power" of the Jewish purse, the invasion and conqu~st of Palestine
would have been impossible.
Jacob Schiff, the Rothschilds, and the Warburgs are a few of
the International Jewish bankers who have played an important
role in shaping the destiny of western Christian civilization.

JACOB HENRY SCHIFF

189

Jacob Henry Schiff

The firm of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., was established in 1867 by Abraham Kuhn and Solomon Loeb. The two had started out as general
merchandise merchants in Lafayette, Indiana in 1850.
Jacob Henry Schiff was born in 1247 at Frankfort-on-the-Main,
Germany. He came to the United States in 1865 and joined the staff
of a New York City banking house. He became a naturalized citi
zen in 1870. He returned to Europe in 1873 where he made im
portant connections with some of the chief Jewish bankers and
banking houses in Germany. Returning to the United States he
became a partner in the banking firm of Kuhn, I.-oeb and Company
in 1875 where his financial connections with thf' Rothschilds and
their principal German agents, the Warburgs, became of great im
portance.
Within ten years Abraham Kuhn was dead and Solomon Loeb
had retired. Jacob Schiff became the head of the company.
His association with E. H. Harriman against J. J. Hill and J. P.
Morgan & Co. for control of the Northern Pacific Railroad resulted
in the stock-market panic of May 9, 1901. The struggle left Schiff
and his firm in a strong position. The firm became the "financial
reconstructors" of the Union Pacific Railroad :md, since that time,
has been "strongly interested in American railroads." In order to
suppress "ruinous competition" Schiff took the lead in the estab
lishment of the Northern Securities Company. He was several
times the vice-president of the New York Chamber of Commerce
and was a director of the Central Trust Company, Western Union
Telegraph Company, and the Wells Fargo Express Company.
Through his firm, Kuhn, Loeb & Company, Schiff floated the
Ja.panese War Loans of 1904-1905, thus ensuring the defeat of Russia.
He marketed the Chinese Loan of 1911. His hatred of Russia led
him to exert great influence in barring that country from the money
markets of the United States.
He was one of the leaders of the National Committee for the
Relief of Sufferers by Russian Massacres.

Jewish authorities proudly declare that Schiff always used his

wealth and influence in the best interest of the Jews. He presented
the fund and the building for Semitic studies at Harvard. He was
Chairman of the East Asiatic Section of the Museum of National
History of New York. He presented the New York Library with
a large number of works dealing with Jewish subjects. He presented a student's social hall to Barnard College. His philan
thropies embraced "every phase of Jewish life." He was the
president of the Montejiore Home and a contributor to Mount Sinai
Hospital. He took a leading part in the reorganization of the Jew
ish Theological Seminary of America. He was a trustee of the
Baron de Hirsch Fund and the Woodbine Agricultural School. He

190

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

provided the funds for the building for the Yo"ng Men's Hebrew
Association of New York City.

Schiff died in 1920. His son, Mortimer Leo, succeeded him as

head of Kuhn, Loeb & Co.

The Rothschilds
Mayer Anselm Bauer was the founder of the House of Rothschild. He was the son of Anselm Moses Bauer, a Jewish merchant
of Frankfort-on-the-Main. His father planned for him to be a
rabbi, but he preferred business. At the sign of the "Red Shield"
(Rothschild) in the Frankfort Judengasse he ultimately established
himself as a money-lender. He became the agent of William, ninth
Landgrave, in 1801. In 1802 Bauer (who had now taken the name
of Rothschild negotiated his first government loan-a matter of ten
million thalers for the Danish Government. He died at Frankfort
on December 12, 1812, leaving ten children, five sons and five
daughters.
Branches of the House of Rothschild were established at Vienna,
London, Paris and Naples and each was in charge of one of the sons.
Adroit employment of a multitude of agents throughout the world
plus the utilization of ingenious methods of rapid communication
enabled the brothers to bring all of Europe within their financial
network. Intermarriage solidified and preserved the family inter
est, and assured continuity of Rothschild control in the several
establishments. In 1815 Austria granted the brothers the privilege
of hereditary landowners and in 1812 they were made barons.
Thereafter the daughters of the Rothschilds-and there were
many-were enabled to marry into English and Continental Gentile
families, thus extending the Rothschild influence and blood into the
British House of Lords and into the ruling circles of European
nobility.
Anselm Mayer was in charge of the Frankfort house. He was
chosen a member of the royal Prussian privy council of commerce.
In 1820 he became Bavarian consul and court banker.
Solomon had charge of the Vienna branch. His intimate relationship with Prince Metternich led to the firm's connection with
the allied powers.
Jacob, the youngest of the brothers, undertook the establish
ment of the Paris branch after the restoration of the Bourbons. He
negotiated large loans "for them but was a heavy loser in the 1848
Revolution. He financed the earliest French railroads, reaping
enormous profits on the speculation.
Karl superintended the Naplee branch, the least important of
the five. It was discontinued in 1860 when Naples was annexed
to Italy.

THE ROTHSCHJLDS

191

Nathan, the third brother, is generally considered to have

been the financial genius of the family. He came to Manchester in
1800. In 1805 he moved to London. He employed carrier pigeons
and fast sailing boats for transmitting intelligence and, utilizing
information unknown to the general public, he became adept in
manipulating the rise and fall of stocks. In 1810 Wellington made
some drafts which the English Government could not meet. Roth
schild purchased them at a liberal discount. They were ultimately
redeemed by the Government at par. Rothschild immediately became associated with the allied powers in the struggle against
Napoleon, negotiating the loans that enabled the continuation of
the war. RothsChild's fortune ultimately became involved in the
outcome of the contest. He followed the fortunes of the army of
Wellington at Waterloo, watching the ebb and tide of battle with
the feverish eagerness of the gambler who has staked his last dollar
on the turn of a card. Bluecher's defeat two days previous had
thrown London into a panic and brought stock tumbling on the
exchange. Armed with the knowledge of Napoleon's defeat hours
before it reached the public, Rothschild reaped a fortune.
Rothschild popularized foreign loans in Britain by fixing the
rate in sterling and making the dividends payable in London. He
soon became the financial agent of nearly every civilized Government.
Lionel succeeded his father in the management of the London
house (1836). The fall of Louis Philippe (1848) of France in
creased the importance of the London Branch. Lionel was distracted
somewhat from the strict financial interests so ardently pursued by
his father, by the Jewish question in particular and politics in
general. He was elected to Parliament as a representative of the
city of London in 1847, and again in 1849 and 1852. In 1858 an
Act of Parliament and a resolution of the House of Commons,
altering the oath of office, permitted him to take his seat. He
represented the city of London until 1874.
During Lionel's management the London house financed no
less than eighteen government loans, including the Irish famine
loan and the Turkish loan of 1858.
Other Jewish families were in the business of financing governments-the Lazards, Sterns, Speyers, and Seligmans. They had
followed the Rothschild pattern of establishing local branches tn
European capitals, each under the management of a brother. After
1848 the governments of Europe threw their loans open to the
public instead of relying solely on the Rothschilds and the Sterns
were able to capture a few of the plums; notably the Portugese
loans. Smaller Jewish firms combined their resources, out of
which emerged the Credit Mobilier, the Dresden.er Bank, and the
Deutsche Reichsbank of Berlin.
The Rothschilds arranged with Bleichroder at the termination

192

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

of the Franco-Prussian war, for payment to Germany of an indemnity of five milliard francs. In 1875 the London house advanced
the British government 5,080,000 pounds for Suez shares, thereby
making a profit of one hundred thousand pounds. In 1884 they
loaned the Egyptian government one millon pounds.
France rebelled against the "Semitic influence of the Rothschilds" and, in 1876, launched the Union Generale with a capital
of four million francs, increasing it to twenty-five million francs
in 1878. The bank was to be essentially Catholic. The Union
Generale failed after numerous difficulties carrying many French
families into financial ruin. The Rothschilds were left victors in
the field. Says the Jewish Encyclopedia: "It is a somewhat curious
s~quel to the attempt to set up a Catholic competitor to the Rothschilds that at the present time the latter are the guardians of
the papal treasure."
The Rothschilds have consistently kept the secret of their
operations.

The Warburgs
The Warburg family came into prominence in Hamburg, Germany, where the brothers Aby, Max, Paul Moritz and Felix Moritz
were born.
Aby became a historian of German art and devoted himself
to research.
Max Warburg was a banker in Hamburg. In 1924 he became
adviser to the Reichsbank. He is the author of several works on
finance. He was the financial expert for the German delegation at
the Peace Conference in Paris in 1919.
Paul Moritz Warburg also became a banker. He was a partner
in M. M. Warburg & Co., Hamburg, in 1895. Coming to the United
States in 1902 he joined the banking firm of K-uhn, Loeb & Go., in
New York, at a yearly salary of five hundred thousand dollars. He
was naturalized as an American citizen in 1911. While still an
alien he set about reorganizing the banking system in the United
States. He is alleged to have been one of the bankers who met
secretly with Senator Nelson Aldrich at Jekyl Island, Georgia, in
1910 to work out the details of what ultimately became the Federal
Reserve Act o/1913.

Felix Moritz Warburg had been naturalized in 1900 and, like

his brother Paul, had been a banker in Hamburg, Germany before
coming to the United States. He, too, became a member of Kuhn,
Loeb & Go.

Paul Warburg became the first chairman of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, resigning-believe it or not-his halfa-million-dollar per year salary with Kuhn, Loeb & Go., to accept

PRELUDE TO CONQUEST

193

the twelve thousand dollar per year post. It is as interesting as

it may be significant to note that during World War I Paul War
burg through the parent banking firm of M. M. Warburg Co., in
United States Treasury Department in charge of Liberty Bonds,
financing the war against Germany, while his brother Max War
burg through the parent banking firm of M. M. Warburg Co., in
Hamburg. Germany, was financing the Kaiser's war against the
United States. (See Mullins On the Federal Reserve, Kasper and
Horton, New York City.)
Paul Warburg resigned from the Board of Governors in May,
1918, after "someone had commented upon the fact that his brother
was the head of the German Secret Service." (Ibid., page 45). We
had been at war for more than a year when he resigned. Colonel
House had noted March 16, 1917 that Paul Warburg was "pro
German in his sympathies."
Paul Warbuig was a partner or director of the following com
panies and corporations: Western Union, Westinghouse, Wells
Fargo, Uni;n Pacific Railroad, Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, Kuhn,
Loeb & Co., American I. G. Chemical Co. (l. G. Farben), Agfa
Ansco Corp., National Railways of Mexico, International Accep
tanc Bank, Westinghouse Acceptance Co., Warburg Company of
Amste-rdam, and many other banks, railways and corporations.

Although ~enator Robert L. Owen charged that Warburg was

the American representative of the European Rothschilds, the
Senate of the United States confirmed his appointment by Wood
row Wilson to the Federal Reserve Board. (Ibid., page 46.)
Paul Warburg's son, James Paul, became Vice-president of the
International Acceptance Bank. He was financial adviser to the
Wo1ld Economic Conference in London in 1933. Frederick Marcus
Warburg, son of Felix, has been a partner in Kuhn,, Loeb & Co.,
since 1930.

III
PRELUDE TO CONQUEST

The World Zionist Organization

The rise of the House of Rothschild was accompanied by an
organizational stirring of world Jewry. Intermarriage with im
poverished Gentile European nobility brought Gentile protection
to Zionist aspirations, while intermarrage with other Jewish bank
ing families consolidated Rothschild financial influence and di
recti on.
International Jewish conferences became more and more fre
quent during the last half of the Nineteenth Century. Such meetings

194

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

were held in 1869, 1872, and 1878. In 1893 the Central-Verein

Deutscher Staatsburger Judischen Glaubens was founded in Germany. (By 1929 this organization was alleged to have had 555 local
units and over 60,000 members.)
It was Leo Pinsker and Theodor Herzl who had publicly called
for international organization, but it was the Rothschilds and their
control of international finance that made the international call
possible. What would have been treasonably fantastic in the
Eighteenth Century passed without challenge in the last part of the
Nineteenth. Pinsker called for a "National Congress of Jews" and
Herzl demanded "The Society of Jews."
Herzl's First Zionist Congress held at Basle, Switzerland in
1897 created the first open international Jewish organization in
modern times. There was nothing new in either the world organIzation or the reasons for it. "I wish it to be clearly understood
from the outset," declared Theodor Herzl, "that no portion of my
argument is based upon a new discovery."
The World Zionist Organization, while ostensibly devoted to
the establishment of a Jewish State, took cognizance, almost from
the beginning, of its political potentialities throughout the Diaspora.
Simon Dubnow, in 1903, urged that the World Zionist Organization
be reorganized as a World Jewish Congress in behalf of international Jewry. Although there Is little doubt that this was the
organization's sole purpose, it was not until 1918 that it openly
so declared. The so-called "Copenhagen Manifesto", adopted by
the World Zionist Organization in 1918 and ratified at Carlsbad in
1921, in addition to reaffirming Jewry's claims to Palestine, called
for "full and de facto equality of Jews in every country, as well as
national autonomy with regard to cultural, social and political
activities for the Jewish communities of the countries with a Jewish
mass population, and of all other countries where the Jewish
population may demand such autonomy."
The "Copenhagen Manifesto" may be considered almost as
unique as the "Communist Manifesto". The latter called for the
confiscation of private property and the overt~row of the world's
existing governments. The "Copenhagen Manifesto" demanded the
conquest of a country the Jews neither occupied nor to which they
held title, and in addition demanded special status over their
fellow-citizens in the lands where they were born and where they
resided.
.
It appears that there were times when the World Zionist
Organization did not consider it politically expedient to interfere
in the domestic affairs of a given country for fear of losing support
in its endless conspiracy for the conquest of Palestine. It, therefore,
apparently consented to the formation of a second international
organization, and the World Jewish Congress was launched with

TOWARD WORLD GOVERNMENT

195

its blessings in 1932. The Zionist Actions Committee hailed the

preparatory conference of the World Jewish Congress by declaring:
"The Zionist Organization which was the first to proclaim the na
tional rights of the Jewish people in the Galuth countries, supports
every form of international action by the Jewish people to defend
its civic and national rights, as well as its political, economic, and
social positions. In these days of unheard of attacks upon the
existence of the Jewish people and of a threat to vital Jewish rights
in divers lands, every ejJ01"t at an international union of Jewish
communities and groups of various countries is doubly necessary.''

(Emphasis supplied.)
In 1935 the World Zionist Organization went on record as
having "affirmed the idea of a World Jewish Congress" from the
beginning. "The 19th Zionist Congress," declared a special reso
lution, "regards a union of all sections of the .Jewish people for
the defense of its political rights and economic possibility of existence and the creation of an authorized representative body on a
democratic basis as an urgent necessity. The 19th Zionist Congress
looks upon the World Jewish Congress as a suitable form of such
a representative body. The 19th Zionist Congress calls upon Zionists
and Zionist groups to take part in the World Jewish Congress."
"We are a people-one people!" said Theodor Herzl. "The
longer anti-Semitism lies in abeyance the more fiercefy will it break
out. The infiltration of immigrating Jews, attracted to a land
by apparent security, and the ascent in the social scale of native
Jews, combine powerfully to bring about a revolution. Nothing
is plainer than this rational conclusion."

Toward World Government

The World Jewish Congress is the creation of the American
Jewish Congress. More than this it is the product of American
Jewry. The directing force came from New York City.
World War I forever destroyed the fiction that Jews were
citizens of the countries of their birth or naturalization. American
Jewry, more and more under the domination of the hordes of
Russian Jews who had flooded the United States since 1881, organized for the relief of European Jews whether or not they
served the Kaiser or the Allies. The American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee came into existence in 1914. As the war
developed and victory became certain, American Jewry laid plans
for participation in the Peace Conference. The impudence of such
plans is curious in itself but not nearly so curious and amazing as
the fact that no one seems to have seriously or effectively questioned the idea of a private group of American citizens presuming
to take part in an international conference of governments in which
they would be represented by officials of their own government.

196

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

B. G. Richards, N. Syrkin and B. Zuckerman submitted a resolution to an extraordinary Zionist conference in New York proposing "a convention for the purpose of considering Jewish affairs."
The Zionist Conference, August! 30, 1914, referred the resolution
to the Provisional Zionist Committee for action and Louis D.
Brandeis was named to discuss policy for such a convention with
the officers of the American Jewish Committee.
The American Jewish Committee represented the most Americanized element of Jewry in the United States, and, although the
influence of the descendants of the Judaized Khazars dominated
the Jewish ma-sses, the leadership of the American Jewish Committee hesitated to take the bold step advocated by the Zionist
Conference of 1914. AJC leaders argued for a conference of "prudent and experienced leaders" and against an open mass convention which must necessarily be dominated by the revolutionary firebrands of Eastern Europe. Aligning itself with i.he American Jewish
Committee, the National Workmen's Committee on Jewish Rights
opposed the "collaboration of classes in an organization representing the entire Jewish collectivity"-exemplifying the curious alliance of right and left-wing cooperation so frequently apparent in
Jewish affairs. This strange collaboration was attacked by the
Workmen's Circle through such spokesmen as Dr. Chaim Zhitlowsky, Ber Borochow, Pinchas Ruthenberg, Dr. Nachman Syrkin,
and Baruch Zuckerman.
On March 21, 1915, Judge Julian W. Mack, Louis D. Brandeis
and Dr. Stephen S. Wise established the Jewish Congress Organizational Committee. The man who was to become a Justice of
the Supreme Court of the United States was able to say (September
27, 1915) that the American Jewish Congress was to be "an incident
of the organization of the Jewish people-an instrument through
which their will may be ascertained, and when ascertained may be
carried out."
Meanwhile the Kehillah of New York City proposed a secret
conference on October 24, 1915 and the American Jewish Committee
proceeded to carry out its recommendation. Brandeis opposed the
"secret" conference. "Secrecy," he declared, "will lead necessarily
to suspicion and misrepresentation of Jewish purposes and deprive
us of non-Jewish support. We seek action in the open so that there
shall be no misunderstanding either among our own people or
among our fellow-citizens, as to our aims and methods."
It is interesting to note that Brandeis, a future Supreme Court
Justice of the United States, was capable of distinguishing between
"our own people" and "our fellow-citizens"-an amazing, but enlightening, example of dual loyalty and alien thinking.
The preliminary conference of the American Jewish Congress
was called to order in Philadelphia March 26, 1916. It is alleged

THE REVOLUTIONARY PROLETARIAT

197

that 367 delegates representing more than a million American

Jews presented credentials and participated. Dr. Stephen S. Wise
made the "keynote" address, "American Israel and Democracy."
Although the United States was not yet involved in the war
in Europe the conference looked ahead to the "Peace Conference."
It recommended that "the Congress consider the question of securing to Jews free and equal rights, civil, political, religious in
all such lands where these rights were denied to them; that the
Congress consider the question of securing to the Jews national
rights in all such lands in which national rights were or ought to be
recognized"; and "that the Congress consider cooperation with
Jews in other lands, in furtherance of the Congress program."
Louis D. Brandeis was named honorary chairman and a National Executive Committee was elected. Jewish organizations in
Europe, South Africa, South America and Australia were invited
to work with the Congress. Both the American Jewish Committee
and the National Workmen's Committee on Jewish Rights were
pressured into compliance, out of which came a united Executive
Committee. At a meeting of this group on Christmas Day 1916
it was agreed that the American Jewish Congress would confine its
activities to the Peace Conference, and dissolve when its purpose
in this connection had been completed.

IV
THE REVOLUTIONARY PROLETARIAT
The Jewish Socialist Federation of America
Frank F. Rosenblatt (chief of Staff of the Jewish Bureau of
Philanthropic Research in 1918) declared that "the birth of the
Jewish Socialist Federation of America in 1912 must be recognized
as the most important landmark in the history of the Jewish Social
ist movement in this country." It is perhaps significant that Mr.
Rosenblatt specifically uses the phrase "Jewish Socialist movement"
and not merely th~ "Socialist movement". We learn that the Jewish
Sociali-st Federation was an outgrowth of the Jewish Socialist Agita.
tion Bureau organized about 1905 in support of the unsuccessful
communist revolution of that year in Russia. It was organized
at a time when the little noticed Second Communist Convention
storm was throwing ideological waves against the Jews throughout
the world. The tidal wave had actually started in Basle, Switzerland when Theodor Herzl had called for the mobilization of the
"Jewish Nation."
The Jewish Socialist Bund of Russia and Poland had spear
headed revolt in Russia and the First Commltnist Congress was

198

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

largely composed of Bund delegates. The affair was held in Minsk

in March, 1898. It was convened under the auspices of the All
Russian Social Democratic Labor Party. Neither Julius Martov
(Yurii Osipovich Tsederbaum), who had been one of the leaders of
the Russian Jewish Socialist Bund, nor Lenin (Vladimir Ilyich
Ulyanov) were able to attend the Congress, both having been ar
rested and sent to Siberia a few months previous.
It has been truthfully said that every radical or revolutionary
movement in Russia was heavily staffed with Jewish leadership.
The Jews had always been most active in revolutionary propaganda.
A Jew named Mloditzkia attempted to assassinate Count Loris
Melikoff in 1880. Five Jewish names had dominated the list of
assassins who had murdered Czar Alexander II. The Jewish General
Workers Union of Poland and Lithuania (the Jewish Socialist Bund)
was, of course, all Jewish. Leo Deutsch and Pavel Borisovich
Axelrod were among the Jews who founded Russian Marxism.
Axelrod and Martov were two of the six editors of Iskra.. A Jew
named Gershuni was the leader of one of the terrorist groups. Many
other examples might be given. Most Jewish apologists attempt
to refute the Jewish character of Communism by disclaiming Jewish
aherence to the Bolshevik! wing of the All Rus:~ian Sor:ial Demo
cratic Labor Party and seek to glamorize the Menshevilci wingwhich is conceded to be heavily Jewish-as something quite dif
ferent. The fact is that the split in the All Russian Social Demo
cratic Labor Party was over the issue of Jewish nationalism which
had swept out of Switzerland in 1897.
An attempt had been made to convene a second congress of the
Party in April of 1902. An unsuccessful conference met in Bialys
tock. Theodore Dan (Gurvich) attended this meeting. The "stu
dent movement" reached its climax on April 4, 1902 with the
assassination of Sipiagin (successor of Plehve) by Balmashov.
The socalled NishniNovgorod workers' demonstration followed,
resulting in the arrest of many of the "comrades." The trial of
Zalomov and Denisov was highly capitalized by the Communists
and gave an added impetus toward open revolution. The escape
from the jail at Kiev of a number of the arrested "comrades",
including Maxim Litinov (Finklestein) and Piatnitsky, and the
creation of an "organization committee" by Iskra (which Gregory
Zinoviev called the first Central Executive Committee) cleared the
way for the official Second Communist Congress.
The organization committee was composed of hardribbed
revolutionaries who were destined to play leading roles in the rape
of Russia. Among them were Krisishanovsky, later to become
commissar of Soviet electrification; Alexandrova; Lengnik, a later
member of the Soviet Commissariat for Education; Krassikov, to
become prominent in the Soviet Finance Commissariat; Krasnucha,
delegate from the Petersburg Committee; Levin, delegate from the
South Russian Workers; and Portnoy of the Jewish Socialist Bund.

THE JEWISH SOCIALIST FEDERATION OF AMERICA

The Organization Committee was charged with the task of

convoking the "All-Russian Party Congress_'' A program was
drafted by the editorial staffs of Iskra and Zarya, the latter being a
theoretical organ published abroad by the Plekhanov-Lenin combination. Needless to say, the draft was the work of Plekhanov
and Lenin. Its theses included the development of capitalism, the
concentration of capital, the creation of a proletariat, and the transference of power to the proletariat. The draft was completed in
time for the opening of the Second Congress in Brussels.
The revolutionary tempo was accelerated by the Jewish Bundists throughout 1902 and 1903. A series of peasant revolts flared
in Saratov which were suppressed by Governor Peter Arkadevich
Stolypin, later to be assassinated by a Jewish lawyer named Mordecai Bogrov. Terrorism marked the rising pace of revolt as the
assassins Karpovitch, Balmashov and Hirsch Leckert emptied
their revolvers at Russian officialdom. Clashes between communist
demonstrators and the police became more frequent, creating a
bloody back-drop for the shabby Congress when it clamorously descended on Belgium.
Among those who were to write the history of the Second Congress were the following: Schatman, representing the Petersburg
Committee, later to be active in Karelia; Lydia Makhnovetz, second
delegate from Petersburg; N. Baumann, of the Moscow Committee;
Lydia Knipovitch, nicknamed "Djadenka", of the North Russian
Alliance; Stopani, also of the North Russian Alliance; Makhlin;
Lenov, an anarchist; Krasikov, of the Kiev Committee; Dimitry
Ulianov, of the Tula Committee; Zemlyatchka, of the Odessa Committee; Panin, representing the Crimean Union; Maschinski, of the
Donetz Union; Gussev, of the Don Committee; Ackerman, also of
Don Committee; Galkin and Lyadov, both representing the Saratov Committee; Levin and Nikolaev, of the Kharkov Committee;
Trotsky and Dr. Maldenberg, representing the Siberian Union;
Zurabov, of the Batum Committee; Bogdan Knuniantz, of the
Baku Committee; Topuridze, of the Tillis Committee; and Kramer,
Eisenstart, Portnoy, Liber (Goldman), Medem and Kossovsky, all
of the Jewish Socialist Bund. Lenin represented the foreign organization of Iskra and Martov represented the editorial board. Plekhanov, Axelrod and Deutsch were among others who attended the
Congress. Only two delegates, Babushkin and Schatman, could
lay any claim whatever to a workingclass background.
Nearly sixty revolutionaries gathered at Brussels, Belgium for
the Second Communist Congress. The affair was held in a flour
warehouse draped with red bunting and opened July 30, 1903. The
first clash came on the question of the relationship of the Jewish Socialist Bund to the All Russian Social Democratic Labor Party. Both
the Jewish Socialist Bund and Zionism had emerged in the same

200

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

year and the question of Jewish nationalism was uppermost in the

minds of the Bundists. They had adopted Yiddish as their language
and contended that "national consciousness and class consciousness
must go hand in hand." The Bundists therefore demanded autonomy
for specifically Jewish problems and the right to represent all Jews
in Russia. Lenin, of course, held out for a centralized party and
Martov, Axelrod and Trotsky-all Jews-stood with him. The
question was still largely unsettled when the Belgian police interferred. The Congress moved to London where it met from August
11 to August 23.
Gregory Zinoviev, a Jew himself, in his "History of the Russian
Communist Party", explains the split in the party: "The Bund
demanded that It be regarded as the sole representative of the whole
Jewish proletariat of Russia, refusing to take any cognizance of
the fact that the Jewish people in general were scattered throughout
the whole country, and that therefore the correct course was for
them to join the organization of the place in which they lived, just
as the Finnish, Estonians, and other workers. Wf!' could not agree
to splitting up our organization into separate fragments, for we
were a single international party, carrying on a struggle against
international capital. This was the view-point maintained by the
Iskrovtzi, conceding only that the Jewish workers have their own
benefit societies and special groups, publish their own papers in
their mother-tongues, etc. But the Bund, giving the first sign of
future social-chauvinism, pushed the matter to the limit, demanding
that the workers be divided according to nationality, and allowed
the right of having separate parties of their own."
Martov and Lenin split on the definition of "party member",
Lenin insisting on restricting language. Trosky and Axelrod joined
with Martov. Martov ultimately won his point by a vote of 28 to
22. Lenin was infuriated and started a vigorous camapign to reverse the vote. He moved to dissolve the Rabochee Delo (The Workers' Cause), a revolutionary publication in ideological competition
with Iskra. Both of Rabochee Delo's delegates had voted with
Martov and when Lenin's motion had carried they left the Congress.
The five delegates of the Jewish Socialist Bund, smarting under their
defeat on the question of autonomy,-and who had also voted with
Martov-walked out and Lenin's minority was therefore converted
into a majority! The Russian word for majorities is Bolsheviki!
Those who supported the Bund (the minorities) were to become
known by the Russian equivalent Mensheviki. Zinoviev explained
It this way: "Lenin and Plekhanov were upheld, their resolution
being passed, I believe, by 25 to 23 votes. From this juncture derive
the terms 'Bolsheviks', (Majority), and 'Mensheviks' (Minority).
As is known, during the revolution often an altogether different
interpretation was placed on them. Many thought simply that the-

THE JEWISH SOCIALIST FEDERATION OF AMERICA

201

Bolsheviks were those who desired the most possible; while the
Mensheviks were prepared to be satisfied with less. In actual fact,
however, this winged word (Bolsheviks) arose in connection with
the fact that the majority (Bolshestvo) voted for the PlekhanovLenin editorial board, the minority (Menshestvo), against it."
Thus it is that Frank F. Rosenblatt, Jewish Research director,
was able to heap praise upon the Jewish revolutionaries. "It is to
the glory of the Jewish Socialist Bund in Russia," he wrote, "that
the question of nationalism, which in the minds of the Socialists of
the older generation was synonymous with oppression and subjection, was forced into the foreground." The truth of the matter
is that nationalism and internationalism are mutually exclusive
terms. Adherence to both ideas in a single conception is only logical
when the apparent paradox is designed to serve a specified purpose.
Needless to say the Jewish Socialist Bund continued its revolutionary activities and joined again in Congresses of the All Russian
Social Democratic Labor Party. Many were arrested and exiled
to Siberia but hundreds of thousands came to the United States.
As a result a "net" of Bund branches spread across the United
States and into Canada. The chief activity of the branches was the
collection of funds for the Jewish Socialist Bttnd in Russia. American
Bund members organized the Workmen's Circle (Arbeiter Circle)
and swelled the ranks of the Jewish trade unions. Annual conventions of the Bund were held and a Central-Verband was elected
which coordinated and supervised the branches. The waves of
Jewish revolutionaries fleeing the police of Russia after the unsuccessful revolution of 1905 swelled the Jewish Bund branches in
the United States.
The Seventh Congress of the World Zionist Organization in 1905
gave impetus to Zionist Socialism. "Jewish administrative autonomy" <Saym), Golus nationalism, and Yiddishism were current
ideological movements. One B. Boruchov declared himself a PaolZion in Switzerland. He had been a Socialist for a long time. He
advocated that Zionism should join forces with Socialism. The
establishment of Poale-Zion therefore effectually established the
Marxist basis for Zionism.
In November of 1905 Borochov and J. Benjamin Zivi organized
a conference of Poale-Zion in the Province of Poltava. In December
of that year, at the time of the great Russian general strike, they
organized a Jewish Russian conference in Berditchev. In 1906 the
first All Russian Conference of the Poale-Zion met in Poltava and
laid the foundation for the Social Democratic Zionist Party PoaleZion.
Boruchov, together with "other intellecual comrades,"
published a number of radical papers with the Russian Government suppressed one after another. "The Jewish Workmen's
Chronicle'' and "The Hammer" were published in Russian. "The

202

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

Proletarian Idea" and "Forward" were published in Yiddish. At

the same time the Social Democratic Zionist Party Poale-Zion was

organized in Russia. "Sister" parties were organized in England,

Austria, Palestine and America.
In Palestine Poale-Zion published a Yiddish paper, Der Anfang.
In 1909, at its sixth conference, the delegates ndopted Hebrew as
their official language. After the Turkish constitution was adopted
Poale-Zion launched a Hebrew paper, 'Ha-achd~th (Unity), which
was suppressed in 1914 by the Turkish Governm.~nt, and i~ editor,
Zerubbel, condemned to life imprisonment. Israel Schochat (banished by the Turkish Government) and J. Ben Gorion were two of
the early leaders of Poale-Zion in Palestine. Tht> Poale-Zion was
recognized as a part of the Socialist Party in Turkey which gave it
the opportunity of influencing the international Socialist movement
in favor of Zionism and Jewish national objectives.
Poale-Zion organized Ha-Shomer (The Watchmen) a group of
young men who guarded Jewish property against the nalive population of Arabs who were slowly being dispossessed of their property and their country.
During the Zionist Congress at the Hague in 1907 PoaleZion
delegates organized the Poale-Zion Weltverband, a worldwide group
to penetrate the Zionist and Socialist movements. The- Palestine
Workers' Fund was collected from Jews all over the world and administered by this World Organization.
The Poale-Zion Weltverband is credited with successfully propagandizing Socialist and labor leaders in behalf of its program.
Working through the Socialist International and the Enuland Labor
Party the Jewish Socialists in the PoaleZion World 01gani.zation
were able to have both groups adopt Zionism (a Jewish home in
Palestine) as part of their respective "peace programs" (1917-19181.
Socialism and Zionism marched hand in hand from the beginning. Israel Cohen, reviewing Zionist progress wrote: "At the
(Zionist) Congresses . . . the delegates from Russia formed at
least a third of the total number. They played an important, and
often decisive part in the proceedings, and far more Russian was
spoken than English; even translations from German into Russian
were demanded. Throughout the decade that elapsed between the
death of the leaders and the beginning of the War the Russian
Zionists formed the backbone of the movement...."

The Socialist International

What was the Socialist International1
The International Workingmen's Association was organized
in LOndon in 1864 under the leadership of Karl Marx. It was gen
eraliy referred to as the International, and later, the First Inter-

THE SOCIALIST INTERNATIONAL

203

national. Its primary purpose was the promotion of the objectives

of the Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels.
The last Congress of the First International met in Philadelphia in

1874 and rapidly disintegrated thereafter.

The Second International, generally referred to as the Socialist
International, was founded at Paris in 1889. .Headquarters were
ultimately established at Brussels, Belgium in 1890. It was com
posed of most of the Socialist parties in the world, among which
the German and Russian Social Democratic parties were the most
important. The terms "socialism" and "communism" were generally used to signify the same things-revolutionary overthrow
of existing bourgeois governments.

Poale-Zion embodied from the beginning the basic principles

of Marxian communism (socialism) and the principles of Zionism.
The Poale-Zion movement through its World Organization
(Poale-Zion Weltverband) made rapid strides after its organiza
tion in 1907. The Jewish Socialist Labor Party Poale-Zion of America, filled with revolutionary Jewish refugees from Russia, became
an important factor in the movement after the abortive Russian
Revolution of 1905. Many of the leading Jewish advocates of Marxism found their way to the hospitable shores of the United States
and immediately joined the American branch of the party. A
Memorandum, known as "The Red Book" (mainly the work of the
Jewish Socialist Labor Party Poale-Zion) was presented to the
Socialist International by the world Organization <Poale-Zion Welt
verband). It was printed in several languages and dealt prin
cipally with "Jewish nationalist working classes" and "Jewish aspirations in all lands."
Following well established technique American Poale-Zion
agents in the American Federation of Labor were able to secure
the adoption of resolutions "favoring the creation of a Jewish home
in Palestine" as a point in the A. F. of L.'s "peace program" (1917
1918).
In 1917 and 1918 the American Poale-Zion was small in number
of members-three to four thousand-but amazingly strong in
its international relations. It created parallel organizations such
as the National Workers' Alliance. It boasts that it initiated the
movement for "national radical schools" (Alliance of the National
Radical Schools) which, as early as 1918, was "growing from day
to day.''
Frank F. Rosenbatt declared: "It is a party not for Palestine
alone, but also for the Golus and its interests. For this reason,
Poal-Zionism is the centre of the East Side, from which come forth
almost all Jewish American movements, or without which no movement can prosper.''
It follows, therefore, that PoaleZion was an important factor
In the creation of the New York Kehilloh and the American Jewish

204

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

Pressure from Poal.e-Zion "forced the whole Jewish

laboring class on the one hand, and the Zionists on the other hand,
as well as the better-to-do elements, to participate" in the Congress
movement. "All of the radical elements in the National Socialist
Workmen's Committee" were united by Poale-Zion for the Congress
and for the publication of its weekly, "The Jewish Congress".
Both P. Rutenberg (Vice-Commandant of the Petrograd Military
District under A. F. Kerensky and a Socialist revolutionary) and
Dr. H. Schitlowsky joined the American Poale-Zion as soon as they
were safely through immigration at Ellis Island.
Congress.

The National Workmen's Committee

The Bolshevik Revolution had a profound effect on American
Jewry. Gentiles and Jews throughout the world hailed the Bolshevik triumph as Jewish instigated, executed and accomplished.
With Lenin and Trotsky (Leon Bronstein) on the Czar's throne and
Alexander Kerensky's Russian Republic in the ash-heap, many
American Jews believed Jewish objectives already achieved. The
1917 political division of East European Jewry in the United States
was perhaps the first concrete evidence that the Jewish drive for
world power and dominion was a two-pronged attack. Th~ National
Workmen's Committee on Jewish Rights withdrew from the Congress movement on the contention that its need had passed with
the event of the Russian Revolution.
This organization was composed of four of the most radical
American Jewish organizations;-The Workmen's Circle, the United
Hebrew Trades, the Jewish Socialist Fedemtion of America, and the
Forward Association. It was organized early in 1915. A conference
was called for April 18, 1915 for "all labor and radical organizations"-and over two hundred responded. Its first convention was
held the same year in New York City, September 4, 5, and 6. A half
million American Jews were represented through several hundred
organizations. It is alleged by Jewish writers that it was the
first time that representatives of all radical wings of Jewry
convened for one purpose. The 1918 officers of the National Work
men's Committee were Frank F. Rosenblatt, treasurer; J. B. Salutsky, secretary; A. Baroff, I. Baskin, Isidor Cohen, M. Gillis, J.
Halpern, Dr. J. Halpern, A. Held, B. Hoffman, E. H. Jeshurin, H.
Lang, M. Lulow, M. Olgin, Jacob Panken, Max Pine, Frank F.
Rosenblatt, J. B. Salutsky, L. Schaffer, J. Schlossberg, S. Valitzky,
B. Vladeck, M. Winchevsky, directors. (M. Olgin is the author of
"Why Communism?")

One additional Jewish organization, mobilized for the support

of the Jewish Socialist Bund in Russia, Poland and Lithuania, should
be mentioned in passing. It was known as the Central Verband
of the Bund Organizations of America and at one time maintained

JEWISH REVOLUTION

205

offices at 202 East Broadway in New York City. Its avowed purpose
was financial aid to the revolutionary Jews in Russia. Branches
were maintained in "all cities of the United States and Canada."
During 1904 to 1907 "the branches of the Bund were the most
active and influential bodies in the Jewish radical spheres in this
country." During the abortive 1905 Russian revolution the Central
Verba.nd "obtained tens of thousands of dollars" for the Bund in
Russia. Meanwhile it carried on propaganda work among the
Jews in the United States against the Russian Government. After
the successful revolution of 1917 the Central Verba.nd was busy
collecting funds "to assist the Russian Bund in its work against
counter-revolutionary forces." In 1918 M. Gurwich was Secretary
and Dr. C. Kopelson was Treasurer.
The activities of the National Workmen's Committee on Jewish
Rights and the Central Verband of the Bund Organization of America indicate the wide-spread support of American Jewry for the Bolshevik revolution,-especially among the Eastern European Jews
of Kazar descent. Trotsky, Zinoviev, Kamenev, Sverdlov, Uritzy,
and Volodarsky were famous Jewish leaders of the new Soviet
Government. Although these pseudonyms concealed the Jewish
identity of these revolutionary leaders from the world at large,
the Jewish Socialists of America knew who they were. There were
many more. Isaac Steinberg, as a member of the Soviet of Peoples'
Commissars, had become a Commissar of Justice, and Uritzky was
striking terror into the hearts of Russian Gentiles as the chairman
of the ruthless and all-powerful Cheka. They were rising to positions of power everywhere and western Christian cilivilzation was
trembling before- their advance. Rosa Luxemberg was terrorizing
Germany and Kurt Eisner was driving to revolutionary power in
Bavaria. Bela Kun cut a bloody path across Hungary to find ultimate reward under Stalin in the Soviet's Crimea. The American
Jewish Bundists believed that the red dawn that had broken over
Russia was the beginning of an era-an era that must fulfill not
only the hopes of Zionism but deliver to them dominion of the world
as well.

v
JEWISH REVOLUTION
On March 19, 1917, at 8 o'clock in the evening David R. Francis,
U. S. Ambassador to Russia, addressed Communication No. 1110 to
the United States Secretary of State. Among other things the
Ambassador reported that it was "immeasurably important to the
Jews that (the) revolution succeed." (House Document No. 1868,

206

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

65th Congress, 3d Session, Papers Relating to the Foreign Relations

of the United States, 1918, Russia Un Three Volumes), Volume I,
page 7.)
In Communication 1361 (June 5, 1917) the Ambassador told the
Secretary that Russian refugees were returning from America
and that they were "planning to inspire attack upon Root charging
that as Secretary of State he refused to permit certain Russian
refugees to enter United States." Ubid., page 114.) In reply Secre
tary of State Robert Lansing cabled Ambassador Francis setting
forth the contents of a letter written to Jacob Schiff by Mr. Root
under date of October 16, 1908 explaining United States law as it
pertained to political refugees entering the country. (Ibid., 114, 115.)
On July 18, 1917 Ambassador Francis notified the Secretary of
State that the Socialists were "making supreme effort to put their
principles into operation" and that they were being "assisted by
German money in abundance." The Ambassador pointed out that
the "Russian population comprises Caucasian, yellow and Semitic
races as classified here and composed of seventy-four nationalities."
He believed that the problem was "extremely difficult but not insoluble." He further referred to "deplorable conditions mainly
attributable to returned exiles, majority from America, Trotsky
being most troublesome." (Ibid., page 203).
.
William G. Sharp, Ambassador to France, reported to the
United States Secretary of State from Paris, February 9, 1918:
"Your 3118 (3154) February 7. I have just been informed by the
Foreign Office that the report to which you refer is entirely correct.
It was explained that the British Government having received
a representative of the Bolshevik Goernment there was nothing
else to do for the French Government but to adopt a similar
course. It has therefore visaed the passport of Kamenev proceeding
to Paris via England in the capacity of Envoy Extraordinary and
Plenipotentiary at Large. I have been informed that it is also
(true that?) Zalkind has been appointed In the same capacity to
Switzerland. I am told that the latter is the brother-in-law of
Trotsky and has been his assistant secretary.
"The Foreign Office informs me that until recently a representative of the Bolshevik government by the name of Holzman
was here in Paris ... "
During February of 1918 the Ambassador to Russia informed
the United States Secretary of State that documentary evidence
seen by himself and Sisson tended to prove that Lenin and Trotsky
and other Bolsheviki leaders were in German pay "and that disruption of Russia is but one move in plan of Germany to sow
disorganization in Entente countries." Referring to certain papers
uncovered in Petrograd the Ambassador reported: "All documents,
except letter signed by Yoffe (Joffe) are said to be from the files
of 'Kontrerazvedka', Government secret service organized under

JEWISH REVOLUTION

207

Kerensky. If so, unavoidable question arises why K. did not use

evidence against Bolsheviki last July ... Many clues lead to Stockholm and Copenhagen ... " Ubid., pages 371 and 372.)
The following excerpts are from translated documents sent to
the Secretary of State: "Document No. 1. Circular 18 February
1914 ... The management of all German banks which are transacting business abroad and by agreement with the Austro-Hungarian
Government the OsterreichischeKreditanstalt Bank are hereby
advised that the Imperial Government has deemed it to be of extreme necessity to the management of all institutions of credit
to establish with all possible dispatch agencies in Lulea, Haparanda
and Vardo on the frontier of Finland, and in Bergen and Amsterdam . . . Moreover, the managements of banking institutions are
urged emphatically to make provisions for very close and absolutely
secret relations being established with Finnish and American Banks.
In this direction the Ministry begs to recommend the Swedish Nya
Banken in Stockholm; the banking office of Furstenberg; the commercial company Waldemar Hansen, in Copenhagen, as concerns
which are maintaining relations with Russia." (Ibid., page 372.)
The signature was "N3737." Ambassador Francis commented:
"This is outline of basic financial structure begun February 1914,
five months before war was launched and still in operation; notice
reappearance in subsequent Lenin messages, towns Lulea and
Vardo, likewise reference to American banks. Olof Aschberg, one
of the heads of the Nya Banken, came to Petrograd month ago and
boasted that N.B. was the Bolsheviki bank. He was overheard by
one of our own group ... Furstenberg is now at Smolny under the
name of Ganetski, is one of inner group and is likely soon to be
placed in charge State Bank. Aschberg now in Stockholm but
returning. The material in this and other comments is independent
of the documents and accurate on fact statements." (Ibid., pages
372 and 373.)
Document No.2 was signed by "Doctor Fisher" and is headed
"Circular June 9 (November 2?), 1914". It was addressed to "all
military attaches in the countries adjacent to Russia, France, Italy,
and Norway." It announced that "special war credits have been
opened for the subsidiary war requirements" in all branches of
German banks in Sweden, Norway, Switzerland and the United
States. "The General Staff" says the communication, "is authorizing you to avail yourself in unlimited amounts of these credits
for the destruction of the enemy's factories, plants and the most
important military and civil structures. Simultaneously with the
investigation (institgation) of strikes it is necessary to make
provisions for the damaging of motors, of mechanisms, with the
destruction of vessels, setting incendiary fires to stocks of raw
material and finished products, deprivation of large towns of

208

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

their electric energy, stocks of fuel and provisions. Special agents

detailed, which will be at your disposal, will deliver to you
explosive and incendiary devices and a list of such persons in the
country under your observation who will assume the duty of
agents of destruction." Ambassador Francis pointed out that the
document was dated six weeks before the rest of the world knew
it was to be warred upon "and even then making exact plans for a
campaign of incited strikes and incendiary fires in the industrial
plants and the yet uncreated munition plants in the United States."
(Ibid., page 373.)
Document No.3 is signed "Risser" and dated "Circular November 2, 1914." It is addressed to the representative of the Nya Banken
and the agents of the Diskonto Gesellschaft and of the Dew,tsche
Bank. "At the present time," the document reads, "there have
been concluded conversations between the authorized agents of the
Imperial Bank and the Russian revolutionaries, Messrs. Zenzinov
and Lunacharski. Both the mentioned persons addressed themselves to several financial men who, for their part, addressed themselves to our representatives. We are ready to support the agitation
and propaganda projected by them in Russia on the absolute condition that the agitation and propaganda (carried on?) by the
above mentioned Messrs. Z. and L. will touch the active armies
at the front. In case the agents of the Imperial Bank should
address themselves to your banks we beg you to open them the
necessary credit which will be covered completely as soon as you
make demand on Berlin." An addition to the document states that
"Z. and L. got in touch with the Imperial Bank of Germany through
the bankers (D?) Rubenstein, Max Warburg and Parvus." Comments Ambassador Francis: "L. is the present People's Commissar
of Education. Z. is not a Bolshevik, but a right Social Revolutionist and in the discard, whereabouts unknown. Parvus and Warburg
both figure in the Lenin and Trotsky documents. P. is at Copenhagen. W. chiefly works from Stockholm." Clbid., pages 373
and 374.)
Document No. 5 is signed "Kirdorff", president of Kirdorff's
Rhenish Westphalian Industrial Syndicate, and is addressed to the
central office of Nya Banken in Stockholm; Svenson Baltzer, representative of Diskonto Gesellscha/t in Stockholm, and to a Mr.
Kirch, representative of the Deutsche Bank in Switzerland. "The
Rhenish Westphalian Industrial Coal Syndicate," writes Kirdorff,
"charges you with the management of the account of which you have
been apprised for the support of Russian emigrants desirous of
conducting propaganda amongst Russian prisoners of war and the
Russian Army." Comments the Ambassador: "Note that this document already figures in the (omission) several governments having
been intercepted in the correspondence of Prince von Bulow. It has

JEWISH REVOLUTION

209

new and direct pertinency to the Lenin-Trosky data which follows

herewith." (Ibid., pages 374 and 375.)
Document No. 6 is dated June 18, 1917 at Copenhagen, signed
"Svensen" and addressed to "Mr. Ruffner, Helsingfors." The communication reads: "Please be advised that from the Diskonto
Gesellschaft account, 315,000 marks have been transferred to Mr.
Lenin's account in Kronstaat as per order of syndicate. Kindly
acknowledge receipt Nilandeway (Nylandsvej), 98 Copenhagen, W.
Hansen & Co." Comments Ambassador Francis: "Kronstadt, the
navy base, was the nerve center from which L.'s activities radiated
during the summer, both before and after he fled from Petrograd.
Sailors were, and still are, his first dependence. Hansen & Co.
are named in document 1."
Document No. 7 is signed "Svensen", dated September 8, 1917
at Stockholm, and addressed to "Mr. Farsen, Kronstadt (via
Helsingfors)" and reads as follows: "Carried out your commission:
passports and the indicated sum of 207,000 marks as per order of
your Mr. Lenin have been handed to person mentioned in your
letter. The selection met with approval of his excellency the
ambassador. Confirm the arrival of said persons and separate
receipt of your counter receipts.'' Ambassador Francis noted that
the ambassador referred to was probably "Von Lucius, a complimentary reference."
Document No. 8 is signed "Kriek, Deutsche Bank," dated at
Kontrerazvedka, Geneva, June 16, 1917, addressed to Mr. Furstenberg at Stockholm. It read as follows: "Please note that at the
request of Mr. (Jullias?) francs 32,000 have been paid for the
publication of Maximalist socialist pamphlets. Advise by telegram
addressed to Decker of the receipt of the consignment of pamphlets,
number of bill of lading and date of arrival.'' Needless to say
"Maximalist" means Marxian or Bolshevik. Mr. Francis pointed
out to the Secretary of State that Furstenberg was known in
St. Petersi:>urg as "Ganetski" and that he was named in document
No. 1. (Ibid., page 375.)
Warburg is solidly welded to Trosky in Document No. 9. The
communication, signed by J. Furstenberg, is addressed to Mr.
Raphael Scholnickan at Haparanda and reads as follows: "Dear
Comrade: The office of the banking house M. Warburg has opened,
in accordance with telegram from the Rhenish Westphalian Syndicate, :m account for the undertaking of Comrade Trotsky. The
attorney ( ?) purchased arms and has organized their transportation
and delivery track Lulea and Vardo to the office of Essen & Son in
the name Lulea receivers and a person authorized to receive the
money demanded by Comrade Trotsky." Comments Ambassador
Francis: "This is the first reference to Trosky. It connects him
with banker Warburg and with Furstenberg. Lulea is a Swedish
town near Haparanda." (Ibid., pages 375 and 376.)

210

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

Document No. 10 was signed by J. Furstenberg, dated October

2, 1917, and addressed to Mr. Antonov at Haparanda. It reads:
"Comrade Trotsky's request has been carried out. From the account
of the syndicate and the Ministry {probably Ministry of Foreign
Affairs in Berlin, press division) 400,000 Kroner have been taken
and remitted to Comrade Sonia who will call on you with this
letter and will hand you the said sum of money." Comments the
United States Ambassador: "Antonov is the chief military leader
of the Bolsheviki. He was in command of the forces that took St.
Petersburg. He is now in the field against Kaledin and Alexeev.
At the date of this letter Trotsky was already at the head of
Petrograd Soviet and the Bolshevik revolution was only a month
away." (Ibid., page 376.)
Document No. 11 is signed "Scheidemann," dated August 25,
1917, and addressed to "Mr. Olberg." It reads as follows: "Your
desire for (omission) together with the intention of the party.
By agreement with the persons known to you 150,000 Kroner are
transferred to be at your disposal at Furstenberg's office through
Nya Banken. Kindly advise Vo1"warts about everything that is
being written by the newspaper about present events." Scheidemann, explained the Ambassador, was a German socialist leader.
Document No. 11 "links him with Furstenberg-Ganetski; with the
Nya Banken and with subsidizing the Russian revolution. Trotsky
published a newspaper during the summer. Another newspaper
spoke for Lenin. Vorwarts would seem to refer to the socialist
organ at Berlin. Scheidemann's roles both as German peace propagandist and as strike queller in Germany are illumined by this
letter." (Ibid., page 376.)
On October 8, 1918 the Charge d'Affaires in London transmitted
to the United States Secretary of State a copy of a note {October 1,
1918) and a report from M. Oudendyke, Netherlands Minister,
"relating to conditions in Petrograd." The note from the British
Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs {Balfour) to the American
Ambassador (Page) is numbered 162839/W/38 and read as follows:
"The Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs presents his compliments to his excellency the United States Ambassador and, with
reference to his note No. 1261 of the 25th September, has the
honour to transmit herewith, for his excellency's confidential
information, a copy of the report by the Netherlands Minister,
relating to conditions in Petrograd, which was received through
His Majesty's Minister at Christiana.
"Mr. Balfour trusts that his excellency will agree with him
in considering that it is undesirable that any of the information
contained in the report should be made public until the Allied
subjects and citizens now in the power of the Bolsheviks have left
the country." (Ibid., page 674.)

"WE ARE ONE PEOPLE"

211

Among other things the Netherlands Minister reported that

"the Red Guards under the direction of several commissaries . . .
behaved with the greatest brutality" and that the "whole Soviet
government has sunk to the level of a crimimtl organization . . .
The danger is now so great that I feel it my duty to call the
attention of the British and all other Governments to the fact
that if an end is not put to Bolshevism in Russia at once the civil
ization of the whole world will be threatened. This is not an
exaggeration but a sober matter of fact; and the most unusual action
of German and Austrian Consuls General before referred to, in
joining in protest of neutral legations appears to indicate that
the danger is also realized in German and Austrian quarters.
I consider that the immediate suppression of Bolshevism is the
greatest issue now before the world, not even excluding the war
which is still raging, and unless as above stated Bolshevism Is
nipped in the bud immediately it is bound to spread in one form
or another over Europe and the whole world as it is organized and
worked by Jews who have no nationalitiy, and whose one object is
to destroy for their own ends the existing order of things. The only
manner in which this danger could be averted would be collective
action on the part of all powers. I am also of opinion that no
support whatever should be given to any other socialistic party in
Russia, least of all to Social Revolutionaries, whose policy it is
at the moment to overthrow the Bolsheviks, but whose aims in
reality are the same, viz., to establish proletariat rule through
out the world ... I would beg that report may be telegraphed as
soon as possible in cypher in full to the British Foreign Office in
view of its impo:~;tance." (Ibid., pages 675, 678 and 679.)
The Consul General (Summers) at Moscow notified the Secretary of State May 2, 1918 that "Jews predominant in local Soviet
government." (Ibid., page 518.) "Fifty per cent of Soviet government in each town consists of Jews of worst type, many of whom
are anarchists." (Ibid., Volume II, page 240.)

VI
"WE ARE ONE PEOPLE"

"Unity of Mind and Purpose"

On June 10, 1917 American Jewry cast 335,000 ballots for
delegates to the first American Jewish Congress. Thirty organizations were represented separately. After a number of postpone
ments the Congress opened in Philadelphia on December 15. 1918.
The war in Europe had taken a recess on November 11, 1918-and
Nathan Straus declared with deep satisfaction that the Congress

212

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

had at least achieved "unity of mind and purpose as we always had

of heart."
Among the delegates representing the "Jewish people" were
Louis Marshall, Henry Morganthau, Sr., Henry Monsky, Nathan
Straus, Yehoash, Jacob H. Schiff, Oscar S. Straus, Judge Mayer
Sulzberger, AbrahamS. Schomer, Henrietta Szold, Dr. B. Revel, Dr.
Chaim Zhitlowsky, Dr. H. Pereira Mendes, Joseph Barondess, Rev.
H. Masliansky, Gotthard Deutsch, Rabbi M. S. Margolies, Abraham
I. Elkus, Judge Julian W. Mack, Dr. Israel Friedlander, Isaac
Hourlvich, Jacob de Haas, Felix Frankfurter, David Pinsky, Baruch
Zuckerman, Dr. Samuel Margoshes, Louis Lipsky and Emanuel
Neuman.
The Congress-speaking only for American Jewry-demanded
that the Peace Conference establish "equal, civil, political, religious,
and national rights for all citizens of a territory without distinction
as to race, nationality, or creed; autonomous management of their
own communal institutions, whether they be religious, educational,
charitable, or otherwise, by members of the various national as
well as religious bodies; recognition of the historic claims of the
Jewish people with regard to Palestine, and establishment of
such political, administrative, and economic conditions in that
country as would assure its development into a Jewish Commonwealth."

Possibly no other event in the world's history presents so

many amazing paradoxical absurdities. For the first time a group
of alleged citizens of a given country met in convention to boldly
demand of the nations of the world a specialized status for a
segment of their citizenry. For the first time in history a handful of people claiming a common ethnic origin boldly demanded
assistance for the invasion of an established country, the dispossession of its people and the establishment of a "Commonwealth" for its own "people"! For the first time in recorded history
an imperium in imperio was brazenly and openly demanded ;-the
right of an infinitesimal minority to be a law unto itself; to maintain a government within a government! And finally the impudent
demand that the specialized minority be considered a "nationality"
apart and separate from the nation of its birth or adoption!
Eastern European Jewry had finally conquered the Americanized Jews of the United States. Its revolutionary sons from the
cellars of Minsk were in the palaces of the Czars, and its Zionist
sons now sat in the high places of a new and powerful Sanhedrin.
A "JewiBh Bill of RightB" was presented by Louis Marshall of the
American JewiBh Committee thus committing this closed Kahal to
the Khazar plan for world power and dominion. In addition the
Congress went on record in support of the World ZioniBt Organization iri its campaign for implementation of the Balfour Declar
ation.

"UNITY OF MIND AND PURPOSE"

213

Among other things the Congress resolved that "the American

Jewish Congress shall, as soon as peace is declared among the
warring nations, instruct its European delegation to take the
necessary and effective steps in cooperation with representative
Jewish bodies in other countries for the convening of a World
Jewish Congress."

It can be said without fear of successful contradition that the

work of Moses Mendelssohn for Jewish emancipation was demolished thoroughly and completely at the first meeting of the
American Jewish Congress December 15-18, 1918. Mendelssohn's
dream of Jews as citizens of the lands of their birth or adoption
died with the triumph of East European Jewry in Philadelphia; the
edicts of the Sanhedrin of 1806 were torn to bits and thrown in
the discard. Henceforth Jewry was to be distinguished by its
status of dual citizenship. Its loyalty to the land of birth or
naturalization was thereafter to be suspect in the minds of the
critical and patriots everywhere must logically question both the
alien philosophy and the international activity of World Jewry.
The Gentile World was to grow conscious of two apparently
opposite trends among organized Jewry everywhere; the strange,
persistent orientation towards Moscow, and the chauvinistic devotion to the "Jewish Nation" symbolized by the Star of David over
Palestine. On the one hand Jewish capital finan-:!ed Gentile Governments while Jewish Communism sought their destruction on the
other. As the "revolutionary proletariat" Jewry became conspicuous in revolutionary parties wherever Gentile Governments were
marked for destruction, while Jewish capital astutely manipulated
Gentile politics tQ its purposes through the "terrible power" of its
purse. Jewish names would dominate all others when subversive
lists were compiled, and the Rosenbergs, the Coplins, the Golds, and
the Greenglasses would rank high on any dishonor list of treason.
The Rakosis, the Paukers, the Bermans, the Bronsteins and the
Kaganovichs were destined to supplant the leaders of Gentile States
while Jewish organizations financed propaganda campaigns for
World Government. Staggering under fantastic national debt,
war reparations, defense spending and periodic economic depressions, torn by fratracide warfare, harassed by racial agitation and
labor strife the Gentile world must inevitably pause to examine the
two pronged attack on Western Christian civilization.
Julian W. Mack, Louis Marshall, Stephen S. Wise, Harry Cutler,
B. L. Levinthal, Jacob de Haas, Joseph Barondess, Leopold Benedict (Morris Winchesvky), Bernard G. Richards and Dr. Nachman
Syrkin composed the delegation elected by the Congress to the Peace
Conference. They were instructed "to cooperate with representatives of the Jews of other lands."
Herzl, under self-suspected delusions of grandeur, wrote: "Our

214

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

High Priest will wear imposing ceremonial dress; our cuirassiers

will have yellow trousers, white tunics. Officers, silver cuirasses
... I need the duel, in order to have proper officers ... I incline
to an aristocratic republic."

The Copenhagen Manifesto

While the pattern for the direction and dominance of the
Jewish people of the United States developed in New York City and
Philadelphia, World Jewry was being rapidly mobilized. Prodded
by the Congress agents from the United States, Eastern and Central
European Jews seethed with sudden nationalistic excitment and
activity. Their "nationalism" had nothing to do with the countries
of their births or the common purposes or aspirations of their
fellow-citizens. It was strictly "Jewish nationalism";-a nationalism that excluded every Gentile design and purpose. It was the
nationalism of Israel in the desert; the nationalism of nomadic
marauders jealously eyeing the vineyards of Canaan; a Trojan
Horse suddenly alive with invaders.
As Russia, Austria-Hungary and Turkey crumbled under the
impact of war the Jews moved into the broken ramparts. Jewry
insinuated its philosophy and objectives into conferen'ces of reviving nations while establishing itself as something apart and
special-a national minority. Jewish ministries for Jewish Affairs
were established in Lithuania and the Ukraine in 1918 and 1919.
A preliminary conference for a Russian Jewish Congress met in
Petrograd in the summer of 1917 and organized on a program for
"national cultural autonomy in Russia and civil and national rights
for the Jews in Palestine, Poland and Rumania." A Russian Jewish
National Council was created in Petrograd in .Tuly 1918.
While "national autonomy" had been achieved by the Jews m
the 1917 revolution, it was lost in the subsequent civil war. A
delegation of 125 Ukranian Jews met in a Provisional National
Assembly at Kiev, Russia in the fall of 1918. Under the direction
of M. M. Ussishkin the Assembly demanded that the Peace Conference restore the so-called "minority rights legislation" to the
Jews in the Ukraine. This demand had reference to the Statute of
National Personal Autonomy of the Ukrainian Central Rada which
organized the Jews as a nation with full sovereign powers. It
had developed to the point where Ukrainian bank notes were printed
in Yiddish as well as in Ukrainian.
A "minority rights" convention of 498 Jewish delegates met
in Warsaw in December 1918. A Provisional National Jewish Council of 42 members were appointed and directed to safeguard "Jewish
interests at the forthcoming Peace Conference."
Adolf Stand attempted to organize an Austrian Jewish Congress

THE JEWISH NATION

215

without success. Out of his efforts, however, came a Jewish National Council at Vienna in 1918.
Ludwig Singer established a Jewish National Council in Prague
in 1918. A similar Council was founded in Bukovina in October. A
Jewish National Council made its appearance in Lithuania in 1919.
A Committee for a Greek Jewish Congress had been set up early in
1917.
Eastern and Central European Jewry were therefore well
organized to support the delegation from the American Jewish
Congress before it moved in on the Peace Conference in Paris. Each
organization had carefully followed the line laid down in the
Copenhagen Manifesto. Although the absurdity of the illogical
demands might have been cause for merriment in a more mature
age, the bungling men of Versailles received them in all seriousness. "We demand full equality in your household," cried the
Copenhagen Manifesto. "We demand a share in all your affairs;
we demand your rights and privileges. We also demand that
we be recognized as a guest with special rights and privileges
denied the other members of your household!"
In more formal language World Jewry demanded equality as
citizens in the countries where they resided and recognition of their
"minority" status as the Jewish Nation. It further demanded
that the Peace Conference obtain "international guarantees for
this newwon Jewish equality in its twofold aspect."
Theodor Herzl had denied both the possibility and the desirability of the "brotherhood of man." Perhaps he was referring
only to brotherhood with Gentiles because he was speaking exclusively to the. Jews. "Universal brotherhood," he said, "is not
even a beautiful dream. Antagonism is essential to man's greatest
efforts." It is quite obvious that the Copenhagen Manifesto does
not contemplate the "brotherhood of man." It is couched in the
language of conquerors and addressed to a vanquished people.

VII
THE JEWISH NATION
. The International Jew at Versailles
The dawn of 1919 found Paris flooded with Jewish delegations
from all over the world. From Palestine, Russia, Canada, the
United States, the Ukraine, Poland, Rumania, East Galicia, Transylvania Bukovina, Italy, Czechoslovakia, England, Yugoslavia,
Greece; from West, South, East and North;-orthodox Jews, Socialist and Communist Jews, conservative Jews and radical Jews,

216

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

poor and rich Jews;-they poured into the French capitol. Whatever their status in the lands that harbored them they were for
the greater part, merely Jews-"a national minority" in the city
that was "to make the World safe for Democracy."
The guiding geniuses of the movement lost little time in organizing the hetrogeneous mass into a coordinated phalanx. The
Comite des Delegations Juives auspres de la Conference de la Paix
(Committee of Jewish Delegations at the Peace Conference) was

organized on March 25, 1919. In addition to delegates from the

various countries, representatives from the World Zionist Organization and the B'Nai B'Rith were included in the Committee's
membership. Thus the Comite des Delegations Juives would be able
to boast that it spoke for more than ten million Jews.
Two Jewish organizations merit special mention because they
refused to associate themselves with the Comite des Delegations
Juives. The Alliance Israelite Universelle and the Joint Foreign
Committee (of the British Board of Deputies and the Anglo Jewish
Association) refused to go along on the issue of "national rights",
contending only for religious rights. While the Joint Foreign
Committee favored "autonomous management of religious, educational, charitable and other cultural institutions" it stopd by the
Alliance Israelite Universelle in its decision to refuse participation
with the Comite des Delegations Juives.
To deny that Woodrow Wilson, Georges Clemenceau and other
influential figures at the Versailles Peace table were free of
Jewish domination and guidance is to confess ignorance of history
or to ignore its record. The accomplishments of World Jewru
through the Comite des Delegations Jttives are not difficult to
trace and identify. The idea of a World Super-State had long been
a dream of World Jewry and Woodrow Wilson's conceit in the conviction that the proposal was solely his own was pandered and puffed
on all sides by the Jewish delegations and their controlled media
of propaganda. Part and parcel of the Wilsonian plan for remaking
the world in his image were the principles of "national .self
determination" and "homogeneity";-two vital principles of Wilson's
"Fourteen Points" that were stumbling blocks to the ambitions of
World Jewry. While there were no stronger advocates of the
League of Nations and its World Court than organized Jewry,
"self-determination" and "homogeneity" by and for any nation
other than the non-existing "Jewish Nation" was unthinkable. The
finesse of the Jewish delegates is clearly discernible in the finished
product of Versailles. "The principles of national self-determination
and homogeneity were not permitted to be carried to extremes"
declares one Jewish historian. Among other objectives of the
masterminds behind massed Jewry at the Peace Conference was
the destruction of state sovereignty throughout Christendom.

THE VERSAILLES TREATY

217

Unable to accomplish this objective in one peace conference

World Jewry had to content itself for the time being with the report
that "absolute state sovereignty was restricted."
As a result of the untiring efforts of the Jewish delegations
"the new and enlarged states" were compelled "to assume an
obligation to embody in a treaty with the principal Allied and
Associated Powers such provisions as might be dePmed necessary by
the said Powers to protect the inhabitants who differed from
the majority of the population in race, language, or religion."
They succeeded in bringing "domestic group rights" under international guarantee,-the League of Nations.

The Versailles Treaty

The work of World Jewry at the Peace Conference is no where
better indicated than in the provision imposed on Poland by the
Versailles Treaty. Poland signed the Polish Minorities Treaty
June 28, 1919, thereby committing Poland to accept an agreement
with the Principal Allied and Associated Powers tor the protection
of "national minorities" in Poland. This Treaty, pursuant to
successful Jewish pressure, was guaranteed by the League of
Nations. Among other things "minorities" were to be admitted
to Polish nationality and citizenship "in the f.Illest sense"; guaranteed the right to use their own language; to maintain their
own institutions, to receive primary instruction in their own language, and where the proportion was considerable to receive "an
equitable share in the enjoyment and application of public funds."
"Racial, religious or linguistic minorities" is the official Versailles verbiage, but it meant that the Comite des Delegations
Juives intended it to mean-Jews.
As a result of the Versailles Treaty Poland was prohibited from
holdings elections on Saturdays. The Jewish Sabbath was established by law. "Jews shall not be compelled to perform any act
which constitutes a violation of their Sabbath, nor shall they
be placed under any disability by reason of their refusal to attend
courts of law or to perform any legal business on their Sabbath.
. . . Poland declares her intention to refrain from ordering or
permitting elections, whether general or local, to be held on a
Saturday, nor will registration for electoral :>r other purposes be
compelled to be performed on a Saturday ... Education communities of Poland will, subject to the general control of the state,
provide for the distribution of the proportional hare of the public
funds allocated to Jewish schools in accordance with Article 9.''
Lloyd George, British Prime Minister, attempting to meet
the harsh demands of Georges Clemenceau for France, proved himself-on paper at least-a greater statesman than either the vin-

218

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

dictive Clemenceau or the starry-eyed Wilson. Writing at Fontainbleau over a quiet weekend in March of 1919 Lloyd George said:
"When nations are exhausted by wars in which they have put
forth all their strength and which leave them tired, bleeding and
broken, it is not difficult to patch up a peace that may last until
the generation which experienced the horrors of the war has passed
away ... It is therefore comparatively easly to patch up a peace
which will last for thirty years. What is difficult, however, is to
draw up a peace which will not provoke a fresh struggle when
those who have had practical experience of what war means have
passed away ... You may strip Germany of her colonies, reduce
her armaments to a mere police force and her navy to that of a
fifth-rate power; all the same in the end if she feels that she has
been unjustly treated in the peace of 1919 she will find means of
exacting retribution from her conquerors. The impression, the
deep impression,. made upon the human heart by four years of unexampled slaughter will disappear with the hearts upon which it
has been marked by the terrible sword of the great war. The
maintenance of peace will then depend upon there being no causes
of exasperation constantly stirring up the spirit of patriotism,
of justice or of fair play ... "
Theodor Herzl, with more expansive ideas ::han "yellow trousers
and white tunics" for his currassiers observed that "a man who
invents a terrible explosive does more for peace than a thousand
apostles."

Second Meeting of the American Jewish Congress

Nathan Straus opened the second meeting of the American
Jewish Congress in Philadelphia on May 30, 1920. "The delegation
to Paris, led by Judge Mack, Mr. Louis Marshall, and Dr. Wise,"
he declared, "has done everything that could be done in order to
protect and further Jewish interests. The Jewish name is more
honored today than it was because we Jews have had the courage
and self-respect to stand up together and try to solve our own
problems."
The report of the delegation to the Peace Conference emphasized
the necessity of securing United States Senate ratification of the
Versailles Treaty, adding "soberly and prophetically" that the
success of the concessions won in Paris depended upon the favorable action of the government of the United States. America was
still virile in its independence and was not yet ready to be lured into
alien booby traps. The United States Senate refused to ratify the
Treaty and the American people emphatically repudiated the League
of Nations in the Presidential election of 1920.
Pursuant to agreement Judge Mack adjourned the Congress sine

CONQUEST OF THE JEWISH COMMUNITIES

219

die after ruling out of order motions for the election of officers and

procedure for reconvening the Congress.

Within a few minutes of the sine die adjournament a body of
delegates reconvened. Gedaliah Bublick opened the meeting, declaring: "The Congress is not dead, it is just born." Calling itself the
Provisional Organization for the American Jewish Congress the
delegates elected Louis Lipsky temporary chairman, estabilshed an
Executive Committee of seventy-one (the number of members of the
Sanhedrin) under the direction oi Nathan Straus and ordered it to
convene the permanent Ame1ican Jewish Congress within one year.
"Our activities and the progress we have made," said Herzl at
the Fourth World Zionist Congress, "can be summed up in a single
sentence: we are organizing Jewry for its corning destiny." The
American Jewish Congress was another step toward that destiny.
At the Second World Zionist Congress Herzl had declared: "An
election campaign must be begun wherever the heads of the communities are not yet with us. Men with convictions similar to ours,
worthy and capable of filling these distinguished positions, must be
nominated and elected in the name of the nat!Onal idea. The
prestige of the Jewish community, the means at its disposal, the
people whom it suppo'"ts, must not be used to oppose the will of our
people. There I think I voice the sentiments of you all, fellow
delegates, in proposing to make the conquest of the Jewish communities one of our immediate aims." (Emphasis mpplied.)
The creation of the Provisional Organization .for the American
Jewish Congress in 1920 was to be the beginning of the vigorous
conquest of the Jewish communities of the world.

VIII
CONQUEST OF THE JEWISH COMMUNITIES
Groundwork For World Government
The success of Comite des Delegations Juives in putting over
a major portion of organized Jewry's program on the legitimate
representatives of the Peace Conference encouraged the perpetuation
of the Committee. An ad hoc organization in the beginning it now
became permanent, dropping "aupres de la Conference de la Paix''
from its title. Leo Motzkin became the leading figure in the post
Conference activities of the Committee. Its real purpose appears
to have been political. It exerted itself in the League of Nations
as other Jewish organizations were to do at a later day in the
United Nations. It purported to speak for Jews everywhere. Many
of its leaders were active in the Interparliamentary Union, the

220

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

International Congresses of Minorities and the International Union

of League of Nations Associations. Among these individuals were

Leo Motzkin, Max Laserson, Dr. Emil Margulies, Dr. Jacob Rob
inson, Rabbi Z. P. Chajes, Meir Dizengoff, Nathan Feinberg, Dr.
Oscar Karbach and Dr. Benzion Mossinson.
In 1920 the Comite des Delegations Juives proposed that the
Conference tor a Permanent American Jewish Congress create a
Council of Jewish Delegations (Vaad Haaratzoth) to be composed of
delegates of national congresses or similar bodies. Dr. Leo
Motzkin came to the United States in 1923 and on May 13 he
addressed the Executive Committee of the American Jewish Con
gress, advocating the creation of a World Conference of Jews.
On August 3 and 4, 1926 a conference waR held in London
attended by Dr. Stephen S. Wise, Abraham Goldberg, Louis Lipsky,
Marvin Lowenthall, Mrs. Archibald Silverman (all of the American
Jewish Congress), Dr. Leo Motzkin, M. N. Tsatskis (for the Comite
des Delegations Juives), Dr. Isaac Gruenbaum, Dr. Osias Thon, Dr.
Jerzy Rosenblatt (members of the Polish Parliament), Dr. Leon
Ringel, Chief Rabbi Isaac Rubinstein (members of the Polish
Senate), Chief Rabbi Zvi Peretz Chajes (Austria) and Dr. Shemariah
Levin representing Palestine. The purpose of the Confe~ence was
the discovery of ways and means for strengthening the Comite des
Delegations Juives. Its main accomplishment was the calling of a
general conference in August, 1927. Invitations were signed by
Judge Julian W. Mack, StephenS. Wise, Nahum Sokolow and Dr.
Leo Motzkin on behalf of the American Jewish Congress and the
Comite des Delegations Juives. The American Jewish Com1nittee,
the Joint Ft>reign Committee of England, the Alliance Israelite Uni
verselle and the Hilfsverein der Deutschen Juden did not participate.
but the sixty-five Jews from thirteen countries representing fortythree organizations, met at Zurich August 17 to 19, 1927. It became
known to Jewry as the Zurich Conference on the Rights of Jewish
Minorities. The American delegation included Stephen S. Wise
Judge Gustave Hartman, Judge Hugo Pam and Max B. Steuer. A
glaring example of the paradoxical situation in which the delegates
found themselves (had there been anyone :1bout with courage
enough to have pointed it out) is indicated by the fact that of the
delegates demanding "minority rights" six were members of the
Polish Sejm (Parliament); one was a Polish Senator; one a member
of the Latvian Parliament and two were members of the Judiciary
of the United States. The Jews of Hungary <md Turkey had renounced "minority rights", indicating their desire to be Hungarian
and Turkish citizens, and had remained home-a$ did the Jews of
Great Britain, Holland, Belgium and Italy. The World Zionist
Organization, however, put its stamp of approval on the Conference
by sending the President of its Executive, Nahum Sokolow.

FIRST WORLD JEWISH CONFERENCE

221

Out of the Zurich Conference came the Council on the Rights

Its headquarters was established at Geneva
in the shadow of the League of Nations. ltc; first Executive included Nahum Sokolow, Z. P. Chajes, Simon Dubnow, Isaac Gruenbaum, Leo Motzkim, Stephen S. Wise, H. Farbstein, I. Jefroykln,
Emil Margulies, Leon Reich, and Jacob Robinson.
With the adjournment of the Seventeenth Zionist Congress
(Basle, Switzerland, 1931) Stephen S. Wise called a meeting attend
ed by leading Jews in the movement. A provisional committee was
set up consisting of Dr. Wise, BernardS. Deutsch, Isaac Gruenbaum,
Oscar Cohn, Leo Motzkin, Dr. M. Nurok and Z. Tygel. The Tenth
Annual Session of the American Jewish Congress approved the
decisions of the Geneva group and went on record for a conference
in Geneva on August 14,1932. Dr. Nahum Goldmann was requested
by the American Jewish Congress to organize for the Geneva affair.
He traveled throughout Europe on this mission mobilizing organized
Jewry everywhere. On July 4, 1932 the annual convention of the
Zionist Organization of America pledged its support to the forthcoming world conference.

of Jewish Minorities.

first World Jewish Conference

Ninety-four delegates from seventeen countries met in Geneva
August 14 to 17, 1932. The convention became known as the First
World Jewish Conference. Leo Motzkin keynoted the organization's
main purpose by pointing out that the creation of the League of
Nations was important for the Jews. He saw a growing repudiation
of the principles the Jews had successfully maneuvered into the
Peace Treaties at Versailles and called for an immediate mobilization of the Jews all over the world for their support.
Dr. Goldmann gave notice that it was the purpose of the World
Jewish Conference to wrest Jews from their respective citizenships
and to ghettoize them as a nation apart. "It is to establish the
permanent address of the Jewish people; amid.;t the fragmentation
and atomization of Jewish life and of the Jewish community, it is
to establish a real, legitimate, collective representation of Jewry
which will be entitled to speak in the name of the sixteen million
Jews to the nations and governments of the world, as well as to
the Jews themselves." To which purpose Joseph Sprinzak of the
Vaad Leumi added: "Palestine needs a strong, efficient Jewish
community in the Diaspora, and the Diaspora needs a powerful
Jewish center in Palestine."
Dr. Wise, Dr. Goldmann, I. Jefroykin, Dr. Nurok and B. Zuckerman were elected to the Executive Committee of the Conference.
Meanwhile the Comite des Delegations Juives continued its
agitations before the League of Nations. One of the provisions
successfully introduced into the treaties at the Peace Conference

222

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

provided that the nationals of certain countries might by-pass their

own countries and appeal directly to the Council of the League of
Nations-a provision now vigorously urged by organized Jewry
in such proposed United Nations treaties as the Genocide Convention and the Declaration on Human Rights. Many of the posts
in the League of Nations-as in the United Nations today-were
held by Jews as nationals of various countries;-an anomalous
situation in view of the declaration of Jewry through its international organizations that Jews were something apart-a Nation,
in and of themselves, in dispersion. The Council of the League of
Nations, therefore, was hardly a dispassionate or neutral body
for the consideration of the petitions presented to it by individual
Jews and Jewish organizations such as the Comite des Delegations
Jttives and the American Jewish Congress. Nevertheless the
Council took jurisdiction of petitions signed by Jews alleging that
they had lost positions because they happen~d to be Jews. One
such petition was signed by a Franz Bernheim, a resident of Upper
Silesia. Because of Jewish allies in the League of Nations organized
Jewry was able to inflate alleged cases of ''discrimination" into
national magnitude and launch, via the sounding board at Geneva,
a flood of racial agitation and propaganda. The Bernheim case
proved an excuse for an exploration of discrimination against the
Jews in Germany and the Leagne of Nations issued a report June
6, 1933 that Keller, the German representative, was unable to
accept, declaring that he was in doubt as to whether it came within
the League's jurisdiction. Whatever the merits or demerits of
the League's action, it would appear that organized Jewry could
not have selected a more subtle method for stirring up anti-Semitism
in Germany.
The Second Preparatory World Jewish Conference met in
Geneva September 5 through September 8, 1933. Its principal
purpose appears to have been an effort to arouse the world against
Germany. Its most imortant accomplishment was the organization
of a "moral and economic boycott" against Hitler's Third Reich. It
went on record against the Jews having economic or other dealings
with Germany. It recognized the alleged persecution of German
Jews as an established fact and demanded that it be recognized
as "an international problem" by the League of Nations. It called
!or "an international solution for the international problems of
Jewish emigration created by the policy of repression, and (for)
. . . the machinery necessary for the systematic organization Of
a wholesale Jewish immigration into Palestine"; all of which led
some observers to believe that organized world Jewry exploited
and antagonized the German Government for the purpose of stimulating the Jewish invasion of Palestine.
The Comintern (Communist Third International) had been the

FIRST WORLD JEWISH CONFERENCE

223

original instigator of a boycott against Germany. Declared the

Comintern in October, 1933: " . . . the anti-fascist workers are
rallying to the support of the heroic struggle of the German
workers. In France, in Spain, in Belgium, in Sweden, in Denmark
and in Holland, Communist and Social-Democratic workers are boycotting the ships sailing under the swastika flag." The attitude
of the Comintern leaders, however, was that the boycott of fascist
Germany should also include all other nations (except, of course,
the Soviet Union.) "Nothing," it thundered, "but a simultaneous
struggle against one's own and against Germa1t fascism can be of
any avail ... "-and the italics are the Comintern's.
The third and last Preparato1y World Jewish Conference convened in Geneva on August 20, 1934. Dr. Nahum Goldmann had
succeeded Leo Motzkin as President in December 1933. The problem
of Germany was foremost in the minds of the delegates. Dr. Stephen
S. Wise declared that "World Jewry, not Germany Jewry, is under
attack!" The conference affirmed its desire to organize a World
Jewish Congress,-"a permanent body repres:?nting Jews ap over
the world, whose task it will be, in the name of the whole of Jewry,
to defend the common interests, and to protect the rights of Jewish
communities wherever they may be threatened." It further affirmed
the strictly international political role that the World Jewish Gong.
ress was to assume by declaring that "internal policies of the Jewish
communities in the various countries or . . . questions of internal
Jewish life in those countries" and "all questions of a religious
character" were to be excluded from the "competence of the World
Jewish Congress organs." The League of Nations was criticized for
the "narrow basis" on which it was attempting to solve the problem
of Jewish refugees from Germany.
On September 13, 1934 Poland's Foreign Minister Josef Beck
announced to the Fifteenth Assembly of the League of Nations that
Poland would refuse to further abide by the provisions on "m,inority
rights" imposed on Poland by the Versailles Treaty until the adop
tion of a "general and uniform system" for all nations. "Pending
the introduction of a general and uniform system for the protection
of minorities," the Foreign Minister declared, "my Government is
compelled to refuse, as from today, all cooperation with the international organisations in the matter of supervision of the application by Poland by the system of minority protection. I need hardly
say that the decision of the Polish Government is in no sense directed
against the interests of the minorities. Those interests are and
will remain protected by the fundamental laws of Poland, which
secure to minorities of language, race and religion free development
and equality of treatment."
The Executive Committee of the Third World Jewish Conference concerned itself with the 4000 Jews in the Saar where a

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

plebiscite was to be held in January, 1935 to determine whether the

population favored German, French or continued League of Nations
rule. The League appointed a Committee of Three who met in
Rome to determine the terms and conditions of the plebiscite.
Acting for the Comite des Delegations Juives, Dr. Goldman and
Dr. Marc Vichniak are alleged to have been able to persuade the
Committee of Three to work for an agreement providing a period
of grace to permit the Saar Jews to liquidate their assets and to
emigrate in an orderly manner in the event that the plebiscite
favored Germany. In any event the Saar agreement met these
requirements and both the French and German governments
accepted the stipulations. On January 13, 1935, ninety-one percent
of the Saar population voted to unite with the Third Reich. Although Germany attempted to induce the Jews to remain, the terms
of the agreement were kept and the majority of Jews left the Saar
before the expiration of the deadline.

The Constituent Session of the World Jewish Congress

During February, 1936 the Comite des Delegations Juives and
the Executive Committee for the World Jewish Congress met in
Paris and resolved to call the World Jewish Congress in-August in
Geneva, Switzerland. On June 13 and 14 more than a thousand
delegates assembled in Washington, D. C., purporting to represent
ninety-nine Jewish communities in thirty-two States. Fifty-two
delegates and sixty-four alternates to the forthcoming Congress
were elected.
Significantly enough the First World Jewish Congn=?ss opened
its session August 8, 1936 in the Batiment Electoral, the building
which had housed the Assembly of the League of Nation.'l before it
had moved to its own premises. Representatives 0f various governments, observers representing the Secretariats of the League of
Nations and the International Labor Office, and representatives of
certain governmental delegations to the Leag1te of Nation:~, attended. The Secretary General of the Nausen International Office
for Refugees and the High Commissioner for Refugees .v~re present.
Two hundred and eighty delegates were accredited purporting to
represent the Jews of Algeria, Argentina, Austria, Belgium, I;razil,
Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, Columbia, Czechoslovakia, Danzig, Egypt,
Estonia, Finland, France, Greece, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Lybia,
Morocco, Palestine, Peru, Poland, Portugal, Rumania, Spain, Switzerland, Tunisia, United Kingdom, the United States, and Yugoslavia.
Dr. StephenS. Wise, as President of the Comite des Delegations
Juives and the Executive Committee for a World Jewish Cong1ess
called the first session to order. In his opening "Keynote" address
Dr. Wise declared that "no Jew should be excluded ftom the

THE CONSTITUENT SESSION OF THE WJC

225

World Jewish Congress because of political or economic views,"

thus announcing that the communistic-revolutionary Jews were as

welcome as the Rothschilds and the Schiffs. "The World Jewish
Congress," elaborated the Rabbi, " must be wide and catholic
enough to include all Jews who would, as Jews, have part with
their fellow Jews in facing and seeking to solve the problems of
their common Jewish life."
Dr. Wise's address stressed the "essential oneness" of Jewish
problems and declared that "there is an undedying unity" among
all Jews; that Jews "are a people"; that they are neither a church
nor a creed, but a "Jewish totality, including all of us."
Said Dr. Nahum Goldmann: "The greater part of what the year
1919 created iS' now shattered. The march from the predatory
practices of states to the great International Court of Justice
cannot be accomplished in a few years. In order to bring it to a
positive conclusion, there is need for one thing: to outgrow the
concept of the sovereign state." (Italics added.)
Dr. Roman Zylbersztajn of Poland said that "there must be
created a network of economic organizations which will represent
the various Jewish communities and coordinate the efforts to im
prove and strengthen the economic position of the Jewish masses."
Dr. A. Leon Kubowitzki of Belgium, in discussing "the organization of the Jewish collectivity," declared "there is still no
negotiorum gester for the every day Galuth questions of our scattered people," and that "only the Jewish people can be the instru
ment of Jewish liberation." He called for welding the "isolated and
dispersed Jewish communities" into a "conscious and organized
whole." The sphere of the World Jewish Congress, he announced,
"comprises all Jewish political, economic, and social questions,"
and "the all-embracing Kehillah should be the central cell of our
organizations."
Dr. Kubowitzki called for at least four departments within the
Congress,-a recommendation that appears to have been predetermined and adopted. He named these departments, Political,
Social and Economic, Organization, Information and Propaganda;
and Finance. The Organization, Information 3.nd Propaganda Departments will be charged, explained Dr. Kukowitzki, with establishing "a network of channels for regular, confidential and
reliable information";
Dr. S. Margoshes of the United States reported that many
circles (in the United States) "which formerly were not accessible
to Judophobism now manifest anti-Semitic leanings."
B. A. Bagnari, representing the Jews of the United Kingdom,
told the delegates that "Fascism and anti-Semitism are synonymous
and that neither can be separated from the other."
Dr. M. Cotic of Rumania said that the attempt in Rumania to

226

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

treat the Jews as a "national minority" on the basis of the existing

minority treaties was being officially declared to be an interference
in the domestic affairs of the country and a violation of her rights
as a sovereign state.
Judge Julian W. Mack was elected Honorary President and Dr.
Stephen S. Wise was elected Chairman of the Executive Committee.
Dr. Nahum Goldmann was elected Chairman of the Administrative
Committee and Louis Lipsky, Chairman of the Central Council.
Dr. Wise and Dr. Goldmann delivered the closing addresses,
both characterizing the First Congress "as a turning point in Jewish
life; beginning of a new era." Judge Julian W. Mack declared
that he was leaving the Congress "with the confidence that we have
laid a deep and sure foundation; that on that foundation we have
to erect a structure that will represent all Jewry, in which all Jewry
will ultimately be included."

Mobilization of World Jewry

The rapid sweep of organizational activity by the World Jewish
Congress and its agents is a remarkable episode in the history of
international conspiracy and intrigue. While German "tourist
penetration" and Communist infiltration are notable feats in the
field of international power politics, the technique in each instance
involved secrecy. The planing of Jewish Nationalist cadres in
the hearts of the countries of the world by the WJC, however, was
done openly. The perfected technique utilized the Trojan horse
ruse plus the psychological postulate that boldness allays suspicion.
While anxious observers scanned ominous signs of war beyond their
frontiers they had little time to note the frenzied organizational
activities of a small segment of their citizens for independent
nationalism. In the indignation aroused by the ruthless march
of Hitler's National Socialism few might accurately analyze and
compare the identical trend in a group of its own citizens,-particularly when that group allegedly based its needs for independent
action on the same fears that gripped its would-be critics. When a
few courageous voices were raised above the general tumult to
protest, they were quickly silenced by cries of "anti-Semitism"
and "Nazi."
Offices of the World Jewish Congress. were immediately established in Paris, Geneva and New York. Paris became the main
office. Dr. N. Goldmann and M. Jarblum were in charge of "Political
Affairs"; B. Zuckerman headed "Organizational Affairs"; Professor
George Bernhard became Director of "Economic Affairs" with Dr.
E. Knopfmacher as Research Associate, and Mrs. Kate Knopfmacher was designated Executive Secretary of the Paris office. A

MOBILIZATION OF WORLD JEWRY

227

branch office of the Political Department was ultimately established

in London under the direction of Dr. M. L. Perlzweig.
Within a year World Jewish Congress agents had organized
thirty-four affiliates in twenty-seven countries on five continents.
Committees for WJC were established in Algeria; Australia;
Austria; Aden; British Arabia; Cairo and Port Said, Egypt; France;
Greece; Bombay, Cochin, and Calcutta, India; Latvia; Lithuania;
Poland; and Rumania. The Delegacion de Associaciones Israelitas
Argentina.s for Argentina, Brnssel.~ Conncil of Jeteish Associations
(later the Council of Jewish Associations of Belgium) for Belgium,
the Consistoire Central des Israelites for Bulgaria, the Canadian
Jewish Congress for Canada, the Jewish Party of C.S.R. for Czechoslovakia, Juudi Knltnuroalistra for Estonia, the Jewish Community
of HelRingfors for Finland, a British Section established November
26, 1936 by a conference of three hundred and fifty organizations
for Great Britain, the Unione delle Comunita Israelitiche Italiane
for Italy, Vaad Leumi for Palestine, the Lisbon Jewish Community
for Portugal, the Jewish Community of Madrid for Spain, the
Schweizer Israelitische Gemeindebund for Switzerland, the American Jewish Congress for the United States, and the Union of Jewish
Communities for Yugoslavia, summed up the World Jewish Congress
affiliates during its first year's activities. Before the outbreak of
war the official Dutch Federation of Synagogues <Permanente Commissie tot de Algemeene Zaken van het Nederlandsch-Jsraelietische
Kerkgenootschap) of Holland, the Comite Central Israelita of
Mexico, and the Committees of Luxembourg and New Zealand
had affiliated.
The Zionist:Trojan Horse had found san::tuary in thirty-one
countries of the world. Under the pretext of "Jewish defense" the
World Jewish Congress launched its assault. While continuing its
activities within the League of Nations and its "use of influential
individuals and their connections" the WJC stepped up its propaganda "backed by the political and economic potentialities of the
Jewish masses rallying behind the Congress in all lands and continents" for the "mobilization of public opinion."
On March 15, 1937, marking Hitler's fourth year in power, the
American Jewish Congress and the Jewish Labor Committee jointly

organized and sponsored a mass demonstration in Madison Square

Garden in New York City. More than twenty-five thousand persons
attended. "Moulders of public opinion," such as General Hugh S.
Johnson, Fiorello H. La Guardia, John L. Lewis, Dr. Stephen S.
Wise and B. Vladeck were rounded up by the joint sponsors for
"opinion moulding." Following the line already laid down by the
World Jewish, Congress the speakers emphasized "the menace which
Hitler constituted to the peace of the world." Intensification of the

228

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

boycott against Germany and the banning of credits to the Third

Reich were prearranged proposals adopted by the meeting.
On November 7, 1938 Ernest von Rath, German diplomat, was
murdered in Paris by a Jewish youth named Herschel Grynszpan.
German reaction was immediate and drastic. WJC affiliates demonstrated thoughout the world involving many non-Jews in their
protests. On March 31, 1939 Hitler attacked world Jewry in a
Reichstag speech, charging that the Jews threatened the peace of
the world.

IX
THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS
The League of Nations may be said to have been founded by
President Woodrow Wilson, although the idea was not original with
him. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, speaking at Washington, D. C.,
In May of 1916 before the League to Enforce Peace was more
emphatic in his endorsement of the plan than was Wi~son. Said
Lodge: "I do not believe that when Washington warned us against
entangling alliances he meant for one moment that we should not
join with other civilized nations of the world if a method could
be found to diminish war and encourage peace."
Said President Wilson: "We are participants, whether we
would or not, in the life of the world ... every people has a right
to choose the sovereignty under which they shall live ... the small
states of the world have a right to enjoy the same respect for their
sovereignty and for their territorial integrity that the great and
powerful nations expect and insist upon ... the world has a right
to be free from every disturbance of its peace that has its origin
In aggression and disregard of the rights of peoples and nations
... I say that the United States is willing to become a partner in
any feasible association of nations formed in order to realize these
objects and make them secure against violation."
The League to Enforce Peace was supported and ultimately
supplanted by other organizations whose c;ponsorship more definitely reflected the current left-wing, socialist and collective viewpoint. As has already been shown, the leading organizations of
Jewry throughout the world were already on record for, and actually
promoting, an international federation. The League of Free Nations Associations, although further to the left than the League to
Enforce Peace, worked with the latter group, and was one of the
first to endorse the League of Nations Covenant. The League of
Free Nations Associations became the New York Foreign Policy

THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS

229

Association after the war and oriented its activities toward the
ultimate consummation of its original purposes.
That ultimate world government is one of the objectives of
socialism was clearly revealed in the activities of the Fabian
Society of England for the League of Nations Covenant. The
Fabians worked closely with the League of Nations Society In
propagandizing for an international organization. A League of
Nations Society was also created in France.
The League of Nations Society was organized In London In May
of 1915. It was the outgrowth of a series of meetings instigated
by the Fabians. W. H. Dickinson, M. P., became the organization's
first chairman. He had been prominently identified with the World
Alliance for International Friendship Through the Churches. In
March of 1916 Theodore Marburg, who founded the League to
Enforce Peace in the United States June 17, 1915, addressed the
League of Nations Society and declared "that the objects of the
League to Enforce Peace and the League of Nations Society were
almost the same."
By November 1916 the League of Nations Society boasted of
300 members.
In July of 1917 Lord Parmoor was a Vice-President of the
Society. Noll Buxton, M. P., G. Lowes Dickinson, and L. S. Woolf
were members of the Executive Committee.
In July of 1918 a letter of invitation to join a League of Free
Nations Association was circulated. Among those who signed
the invitation were Professor Gilbert Murray and H. G. Wells.
By November of that year the League of Free Nations Association
and the Leagueof Nations Society merged into a new organization
-the League of Nations Union. On the first General Council of the
Union were Lord Robert Cecil, Professor GUbert Murray, J. H.
Thomas, J. R. Clynes, H. N. Brailsford, J. M. Kenworthy, J. C.
Wedgwood, Miss Maud Royden and R. H. Tawney. (Brailsford,
in 1921, wrote a Preface to Trotsky's "The Defense of Terrorism!')
'The Outline of History", by H. G. Wells-"written with the
advice and editorial help of Mr. Ernest Barker ... and Professor
Gilbert Murray"-made its first appearance in semi-monthly parts.
Its purpose is clearly evident now. In addition to its mental
orientation toward atheism, socialism and internationalism, it
attempts to lay the ground-work for a super-world government.
Douglas Reed describes Wells as "a disbeliever and sendentary
pamphleteer in whose mind Inconsequent ideas scurried about from
first reaction to second thought and later afterthought like riotous
mob that surges forwards to destroy, reels backward at the word
'police', and then scatters and scuttles through the byways, throwing a random stone from aimless rage." Although he was ultimately
to declare that he saw "the world as a jaded world devoid of re-

230

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

cuperative power", Wells envisioned the "world state" in his

Outline of History as an inevitable historical development. "It will
be based," he declared, "upon a common world religion, very much
simplified and universalized and better understood. This will not
be- Christianity nor Islam nor Buddhism nor any such specialized
form of religion ... "
Whatever else may be said of Well's contribution to the
"world-super-state" idea, his "Outline of History" became an important adjunct to the propaganda machine designed for the destruction of patriotism in Great Britain and the United States.
The League of Nations Union was supported in 1920 by donations. Major David Davies, M. P., made the largest contribution14,737 pounds. Barons E. B. d'Erlanger ana F. A. d'Erlanger, and
N. M. Rothschild and sons donated 3,000 pounds each. Other contributors were the Government of the Peruvian Republic, 1,000
pounds; F. Eckstein, 500 pounds; Sir M. Samuel, 210 pounds; Sir
Carl Meyer, 210 pounds; and the Zionist Organization, 210 pounds.
Thus, socialists, pro-communists and Zionists, together with
their stooges and innocents, promoted the League of Nations and
laid the foundation for world government. One world war could not
quite accomplish the ultimate objective. It is extremely doubtful
that World War II achieved it.
World War III?
"The events of August, 1914,'~ wrote H. G. Wells, "seem to
have taken President Wilson, like the rest of his fellow-countrymen,
by surprise. We find him cabling an offer 0f his services as a
mediator on August 3rd. Then, for a time, he and America watched
the conflict. At first neither the American people nor their President seem to have had a very clear or profound understanding of
that long-gathered catastrophe. Their tradition for a century had
been to disregard the problems of the Old World, and it was not
to be lightly changed . . . President Wilson and the American
people were dragged into the war by this supreme folly ( unrestricted submarine warfare of the Germans). And also they were
dragged into a reluctant attempt to define their relations to Old
World politics in some other terms than those of mere aloofness.
Their thoughts and temper changed very rapidly ... "
President Wilson declared that a durable peace must be "peace
without victory." Within a few days (April 6, 1917) Congress, at
his direction, declared war on Germany. The President announced
that it was a "war to end war" and that its purpose was to "make
the world safe for democracy." History is only now underscoring the
tragic asininity of this double-talk. Peace and victory came November 11, 1918 and Wilson rushed to Paris and proceeded to lose
both.
Marxism not only advocates the necessity for the destruction

THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS

231

of religion in its quest for power but Marxists everywhere similarly

work for the abolition of nationalism. "Religion" and "patriotism"
are the outer ramparts of Christian civilization, and they must first
be destroyed if the forces of Marxism are to conquer and dominate
the world. Because patriotism and nationalism are the natural and
logical result of the integrated family unit Marxism strikes also
at the family. It too must be destroyed and its component parts
reduced to the common collectivity. It does not stop, even here.
The dignity of man, his initiative, his individuality- all must
be leveled to the common denominator.
Propagandists of the Socialist and Communist persuasion
subtly attack "mother", "horne", "heaven", "the flag", "fatherland",
and "patriotism." These cherished and respected terms, together
with the sacred things they represent, are made to appear ridiculous
and "reactionary" ;-obsolete remnants of tribalism perpetuated
by sinister men who wish to plunge the world into frequent bloodbaths for the purpose of making money. To these propagandists
the "elaborate inculcation" of these concepts into the minds of
people constitute the process of "manufacturing" patriots. Such
patriots, from the Marxian viewpoint, are "provincial", mentally
"immature" and "reactionary". To organized Jewry patriotism is
equivalent to nationalism; nationalism equivalent to fascism,-and
fascism means "anti-Semitism." This Jewish concept, of course,
applies only to Gentile patriotism and has no references to Jewish
nationalism.
Some "scientific" critics of patriotism advance the theory that
nationalism is a .form of overdeveloped "ethnocentrism" (regarding
one's own race as the chief interest and the center of culture)a Greek combining form that tends to give the entire subject a
bad odor. By diagnosing the natural phenomenon as "ethnocentrism" th~ propagandist is enabled to elaborate upon the "malady"
without fear of contradition because he h:~s thereby removed the
subject from the realm of the simple and the knowable into the
sphere of the pseudo-scientific and the conjecturaL He may therefore say that ethnocentrism is characterized by unreasonable antipathy and hostility toward all those who are not members of a
given nation, and that such words as "alien" and "stranger" are
synonomous to "enemy" in the mind of the ethnocentrist.
Most of the critics of patriotism are in agreement that nationalism is chiefly a menace to the Socialists, Communists, the Jews
and other aliens who represent a disruptive element within a given
country. Although they do not so frankly state it, the meaning
is clear. The principle that all beleaguered individuals and groups
tend to protect themselves when under harassment or attackpreservation is the first law of nature-is forgotten and brushed

232

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

aside. Both the Socialists and the Communists boldly proclaim

their intention to destroy the freedom of the individual, to con
flscate his property and regiment his life. Organized Jewry,
either as an ally of the Marxists or as an independent nation within
a nation, insists on maintaining an independent status with or
without dual citizenship. The resultant resentment on the part of
those who resist Communist and Jewish objectives is labeled "fas
cism"-which, of course, it is not. Nations have been acting very
much the same in these respects ever since the beginning of recorded history.
Thes~ apostles of collectivity go much further ln their incessant attacks upon the resistive powers of those they have marked
for destruction. They preach that advocates of military preparednes and strong foreign policy are the "extreme natlonallsts"
and the potential "Nazis" and "Fascists." If the mental reflexes
of a nation may be thoroughly conditioned in accord with this "line"
-it will fail to resist when attacked and perish without lifting
a finger in its own defense. If a nation's leaders can be made to
believe that fear of Communism is "collective paranoia", and preparedness against the Soviet Union is "military megalomania"then the destruction of Western Christian Civilization may be
achieved without too much physical exertion on the part of its
enemies.
These defamers of patriotism apparently find nothing wrong
with the individuals and groups-the Socialists and Communistswho have publicly proclaimed their intention to destroy all nations
-except the Soviet Union. To threaten the lives, property and
freedoms of men everywhere appears to be a high virtue when
practiced by Communists; to insist on remaining a nation within
the nations of the world; to invade and steal a country;-these
things appear to be ideallstic when advocated and accomplished
by organized Jewry and Zionists.
President Wilson's "self-determination" and "political independence" for all nations are planks in the Wilsonian platform for
world government that have been somewhat embarrassing to the
propagandists of internationalism. To attack these fundamental
principles of the Wilson formula is to endanger the prestige that
Wilson represents in the drive for world power. If nations may
reserve the right of self-determination and political independence
-and these rights are protected by the concerted power of nations
-it is quite obvious that world domination by any single group is
impossible. So, with or without Wilson, "self determination" and
"political independence" must be treated as sinister symptoms of
"ethnocentrism" and thrown in the ash-can with "mother", "home",
"heaven", "flag" and "country." When Wilson spoke of the "rights
of small nations" he believed in the principle. That he either had

THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS

233

his tongue in his cheek, indulging in psychological warfare, or

was exhibiting latent "fascist" tendencies is untenable. But, as
all of these principles constitute formidable obstacles along the
Marxist advance to world power the proponents of internationalism
are determined to obliterate them from the minds of men.
Irrendentism may be said to be another road-block to the
ideological conquest of the world. It is a word that is little used.
It refers to the principles, policy, or practice of a party, or of
persons, who seek to reincorporate within their national boundary
territory of which their nation has been deprived. It is, according
to the "brain-washers", another form of extreme nationalismunless applied to Zionism (although the definition does not cover
the facts as they apply to Palestine). Like all other forms of
nationalism, Irrendentism is conveniently considered a world peacedisturbing nuisance (except in certain obvious cases,-the Soviet
Union and Zionism) and it therefore is listed by the internationalists
with the other "obnoxious" characteristics of nationalism.
Homogeneity-same character, like nature or kind- is another
symptom of paranoia of the nationalistic mind according to the
Marxist proponent of "one worldism". The demand for homogeneity on the part of the people of a given country is always
depicted as a persecution of minorities because of race, language
or religion. The internationalist never recognizes the factors of
allegiance, political assimilation or national solidarity,-except as
they are manifestations of his own philosophy. The antagonistic,
hostile activities of foreign-born anarchists, Socialists, Communists
and Zionists, all working against the interest of the country of
their adoption or refuge are not considered unusual, ungrateful or
worthy of comment by Marxian propagandists. In countries such
as the United States and Great Britain, where the .discordant and
unassimilable elements of the worid have found freedom and
hospitality, the cry against homogeneity has been greatest. It
is not enough, of course, that these refugees find haven and
freedom. They must of necessity continue to create the frictions
that caused their expulsion from their native lands. It is not
enough for them to become Englishmen and Americans with
the freedom to exercise their particular religious beliefs; it is
not enough to enjoy the rights of citizenship; they must destroy
the homogeneous instincts of the majority so that their own
minority homogeneity may pass unnoticed.
The United States has, in truth, been the melting pot of the
world. It has successfully assimilated most of the nations of Europe.
The homogeneity that emerged was not so much of language, race,
religion and culture as it was of a new and unique concept of
freedom. The United States generously opened its arms to the
oppressed of the world and most of those who came gratefully

234

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

merged into the American pattern. Only the hordes of Khazar

Jews, with their twin philosophies of Marxism and Zionism, have
refused to assimilate. On the one hand they have insisted on being
a separate people; a fragmatized nation in dispersion, and on the
other hand they have sought to refashion the religion, the traditions and the customs of the land of their exile. Their members
predominate among the revolutionary and subversive forces at work
within the country and their names are always listed where treason
and traitors are exposed. They seek, through every medium of
propaganda, the universal acceptance of heterogeneity so that their
failure to assimilate may pass unnoticed in the resultant dissonance.
The Comite des Dltegation8 Juives aupres de la Conference de
Paix sought to insure heterogeneity within nations through "minority" treaties between the new States carved out of Europe at the
"Peace table" and the Allied Powers, and enforced by the international machinery of the League of Nations. The. first of these
"minority treaties" was imposed upon Poland. Czechoslovakia was
next (September 10, 1919), with Jugoslavia (September 10, 1919),
Rumania (December 9, 1919), and Greece (August 10, 1920) following. The Treaty of St. Germain with Austria (September 10,
1919), the Treaty of Neuilly with Bulgaria (November 27, 1919),
and Treaty of Lausanne with Turkey (July 24, 1923) contain
clauses modeled upon the Polish treaty for the establishment of
the principles of heterogeneity. Albania and the Baltic States
were ultimately forced into line. Fifteen States in all were compelled to protect the indigestible elements within their frontiers,
thus crippling their national development and insuring violent
eruptions beyond the power of any international organization to
control.
Under the provisions of these treaties the "minorities" were
placed under the protection of the League of Nations as subjects
of "international concern." The Permanent Court of International
Justice was given jurisdiction of disputes arising out of alleged
infractions of the minority provisions.
When President Wilson arrived in Paris in January of 1919 he
declared that the League is "the central object of our meeting" and,
in spite of the attitudes of Lloyd George and Clemenceau he insisted that the Peace Conference take up the League of Nations
proposal before considering political and territorial matters. Wilson
headed a commission of nineteen which was able to present a
tentative draft of the Covenant to the Conference on February 14.
President Wilson called it "a guarantee of peace." On April 28,
1919 the document, with some revisions, was adopted unanimously
by the Conference. The League of Nations was given official status
on January 10, 1920.
One of the functions of the League of Nations (later to become

THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS

235

an integral part of United Nations' philosophy for the emergence

of a super-world government) was the promotion of "international
cooperation" in the fields of world health, labor, transportation,
communications, finances, etc. Although the Covenant did not
provide for or authorize their creation, the Council established
commissions to deal with these objectives. The Economic and
Financial Organization, Organiza.tion for Communications and
Transit, International Office of Public Health (established at Paris)
and the International Committee on Intellectual Cooperation were
among the important permanent bodies created. The International
Committee on Intellectual Cooperation coordinated the work of
such sub-groups as the International Research IJouncil, the Institute
of International Law, the International Academic Union, etc. An
International Institute of Intellectual Cooperation was established
in Paris in 1924. The International Cinematographic Institute,

together with innumerable committees of one ldnd or another, ultimately became known as the Intellectual Cooperation Organization.
Among others, the Advisory Commission on the Traffic in Opium
and other Dangerous Drugs and the International Convention for
the Snpp1ession of the Traffic in Women and Children may be
mentioned as salutary efforts on the part of the League to deal
with international evils.
The International Labor Organization was the result of Article
23 of the Covenant of the League. Its primary purpose was the
promotion of uniform labor legislation throughout the world. Its
efforts, as might have been expected, were futile. The United
States became a member by Presidential proclamation August 20,
1934. Isador Lubin was the first United States Government representative. The International Labor Organization was destined to
survive the League fiasco and become an affiliate of the United
Nations.

Although the Bank for International Settlements was not

strictly a League of Nations organization its role in the over-all
development of internationalism is important. It was created in
1930 to act as trustee and agent for the creditor governments in
the collection and allocation of indemnity payments. Its stock of
one hundred million dollars was underwritten by banks in Great
Britain, France, Italy, Germany, Japan, Belgium and the United
States. The United States Federal Reserve Banks were not permitted to participate.
By the end of 1938 the failure of the League of Nations was
almost complete. Of the sixty-two nations that had once constituted
its membership only forty-nine remained. With the close of 1940
it had ceased to exist. It had gone the way of its predecessors,
the Holy Alliance, the Concert of Europe and the Permanent Court
of Arbitration. It failed because humanity had not been reduced

236

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

to its common denominator and because its machinery had not been
designed for physical persuasion. "Mother", "home", "the flag",
"heaven" and "country" were yet too deeply rooted in the minds
and hearts of the people. Another and, perhaps yet another, world
catastrophe would be necessary before such "reactionary" con
cepts would be blasted from the breasts of human beings.

X
AGITATION FOR WORLD WAR II
Meanwhile organized Jewry's campaign within the nations of
the world and its continuous use of the rostrum in the Palace of
the League of Nations at Geneva brought the world closer to new
disaster. The internal affairs of German Upper Silesia were under
attack in 1936 and 1937 and the conflict was sharpened considerably
by Poland's declaration that she would no longer be bound by the
"minority treaty."
The question of ten thousand Jews in the Free City of Danzig
was the basis for considerable agitation before the League of
Nations. The special status for the small Jewish population was
a continuous sore spot. The imposition of special privileges led
to natural resentment on the part of the people of Danzig, which
was immediately attended by vigorous condemnation on the part of
world Jewry. Resentment gave way to frustration and excesses.
The Government attempted to throw off the chains of the treaty.
Although the activities of the representatives of world Jewry
before the League of Nations accomplished little or nothing for
the Jews of Danzig the resultant publicity was grist in the mill
for organized Jewry's campaign against Germany throughout the
nations of the world.
Meanwhile most of the Jews in the free city of Danzig had
departed.
The annexation of Austria on March 11, 1938 was the signal
for an appeal by the World Jewish Congress to the League of
Nations for protection of that country's one hundred and ninety two
thousand Jews. Similar appeals were made from time to time both
in behalf of the Jews of Austria and of Czechoslovakia. Hitler's
concern for his blood-brothers in the Sudetenland-similarly duplicated by organized Jewry's concern for its own blood-brethernwas a coincidence that appeared to pass unnoticed.
Poland-which contained the greatest Jewish populationfinally became the principal issue. The World Jewish Congress
initiated a series of public demonstrations designed to arouse
indignation throughout the world. A conference on the Polish

AGITATION FOR WORLD WAR II

237

Jewish question was organized by the American Jewish Congress in

New York City January 31, 1937. Two thousand three hundred and
ninety-six delegates representing eight hundred and thirty-five
Jewish organizations attended. A similar conference was held in
London on April 6, 1937 under the auspices of the British Section
of the World Jewish Congress. Its one hundred delegates purported
to speak for the religious, fraternal, Zionist and labor organization of British Jewry. The Canadian Jewish Congress staged a
series of protest demonstrations during the same month. On June 1,
1937 the Federation des Societes Juives de France convoked a
protest meeting in Paris. An "emergency conference" was called
in New York City on June 10, 1937 attended by two thousand four
hundred and sixty-two delegates from eight hundred and seventy
organizations. A delegation of two hundred headed by Dr. Stephen
S. Wise was dispatched to Washington with a memorandum addressed to the State Department. Why two hundred delegates
were necessary is better guessed than explained. The memorandum
recited the oppression of the Jews in Poland. Its presentation by
Dr. Wise to Secretary of State Cordell Hull on July 12, 1937 was
dramatized by a public declaration protesting the treatment of the
Jews in Poland signed by one hundred and fourteen non-Jews in
the fields of "religion, science, literature, and education."
The World Jewish Congress stepped up its clamor during succeeding months. The Socialists, the Communists and left-wing
groups added their voices. At the initiative of the Congress, meetings and demonstrations swept across the world. Declarations,
manifestos, and petitions cluttered the streets and the desks of
public officials. In Belgium seventy university professors, writers
and social leaders, addressed statements of solidarity and protest
to the Conseil des Associations Juives . A protest, signed by twentyfive French authors and college professors, supplemented a similar
protested by the League of the Rights of Man. Resolutions, statements, protests and declarations multiplied through the wizardry of
the World Jewish Congress:-a resolution from the Polish League
of Peace and Freedom in Warsaw; a statement from the International League for Academic Freedom; a protest from the Institute
of International Education; a declaration from the American Student Union; a resolution from the American Federation of Teachers,
and others too numerous to mention.
, In answer, Poland, in 1938, adopted a law providing that persons
who had been abroad for a period of five continuous years would
be deprived of their Polish citizenship and forbidden to return to
Poland. Jews, among others, who had been absent from Poland
more than five years were interned in a camp at Zbaszyn when
they attempted to renter the country. The World Jewish Congress
immediately intervened with the Polish Ambassadors in Paris and

238

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

Washington. Dr. M. L, Perlzweig was dispatched to Warsaw to take

the matter up with the Polish government. World War II intervened and German troops invaded Poland before Dr. Perlzweig
was able to get down to cases with the officials of the government.
The World Jewish Congress used the efforts of the Rumanian
government to throw off the shackles of Versailles to. the best
advantage along with its other activities. The Congress actually
boasts of its successful efforts in "the early overthrow" of one
of the Rumanian governments by stating that "it is no mere conjecture" that the "efforts of the World Jewish Congress were
responsible." As Rumania struggled with the handcuffs of the
"minority" clauses of the treaty, organized Jewry capitalized on
the "persecution of the Jews" within the country.
In January of 1938 the Prime Minister of Rumania declared that
four waves of immigration had brought between 250,000 to 500,000
Jews into the country and the Minister of Foreign Affairs stated
that Rumanian Jews were not entitled to a special status over other
citizens. A Royal Decree of January 22, 1938 ordered the revision
of the citizenship status of all Jews in Rumania.
The World Jewish Congress invoked the provisions of the
"minority" treaty clauses before the League of Nations and dispatched strong protests to the French and British Foreign Ministers. Dr. Perlzweig in London, Marc Jarblum in Paris, and Dr.
Kubowitzki in Brussels descended on the Foreign Offices of the
respective governments. Dr. Wise was in constant communication
with the White House in Washington. The Rumanian government
was compelled to resign on February 10, 1938.
In May of 1938 the Hungarian government proposed to limit
the number of Jewish employees in all branches of economy to
twenty percent of the population. The WJC intervened. In Iraq,
Uruguay and in all parts of the world where Jews resided the World
Jewish Congress proceeded to tell their respective governments that
their Jewish citizens were a peculiar people with very special and
exceptional rights. There was no cessation in the outcry; no
relaxation of the drums of war.
In the beginning organized Jewry had declared war on the
central governments of Europe and had sought to impose its will
on their people through treaty provisions and the machinery of the
League of Nations. In the end they made their war a world war
and involved most of the civilized nations in the conflagration.
In the end few would remember what it was. all about, how it
started and why. No one would be certain who led the demonstrations, signed the declarations, made the protests and passed the
resolutions. Men would march and men would die; battles would
be fought that would take the names of nations and oceans; there
would be sacrifice, tears, blood and sweat. But, when it was over

ANTI-GENTILISM

239

the people of the world would not really remember very much about
it. Some might recall that it had been frightful in the sacrifice of
Christian blood and staggering in the waste of Gentile wealth.
Some might slowly learn that there had been no real victory and
that the promised peace was to be as chimerical as had been the
"war to end war" and the struggle to "make the world safe for
democracy."

XI
ANTI-GENTILISM
Karl Marx's attack upon religion as "the opium of the people"
was not so much an attack upon all religions as it was a war against
Christianity. Like most intellectual revolutionary Jews, Marx was
no more an adherent of Judaism than he was of Christianity. Eth
nically, however, he was a Jew. In substance Marx reminded the
Jews that they must not demand equality with Christians; they
must seek the total destruction of Christianity. Marx believed that
the Jew has within himself the privilege of being a Jew. It was
his contention that the Jew, as a Jew, has rights that the Christian
does not have. "Why does the Jew demand rights that he does
not have and that Christians enjoy?" he asked. He reasoned that
the Jew, in demanding emancipation from the Christian State, demands that the Christian State abandon its religious prejudice.
And he, the Jew, does he abandon his own religious prejudices?
Has he then the right to demand of another that he relinquish his
religion? Marx concludes that as long as the State remains Christion; as long as Jew remains Jew, both are equally incapable, the
one to give emancipation, and the other to receive it.
Thundering in the columns of "DeutschFranzosishe Jahr
bucher'', Marx demanded: "Upon what title do you Jews ground
your claim for emancipation? On your religion? It is the mortal
foe of the State (Christian) religion."
The Marxian philosophy does not tolerate compromise.
What then is the Marxian solution?
Concluding that as long as States are Christian and the religion
of the Jews is the mortal foe of the state religion, Marx proceeds
to lay down the formula for the destruction of Christianity;-the
establishment of atheism. "The most rigid form of opposition
between the Jew and the Christian," he avers, "is the religious
opposition. How does one get rid of an opposition? By making it
impossible. And how make impossible a religious opposition? By
suppressing religion."

240

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

Marx was willlng to concede that the Jew had been emancipated
In his day, but in a Jewish manner. He believed that the Jew had
been emancipated in precise measure as the Christians had become
Jews. He knew that the Jew, "who was merely tolerated in Vienna,"
determined by his sole financial power the future of all Europe;
that the Jew, who might be without rights in the smallest of the
German states, decided the future of Europe. He believed that the
Jew had made himself the master of the financial market through
the medium of gold which had become a world power, and through
the "practical Jewish spirit" which had become the spirit in practice
of the Christian people. But, to Marx, this type of emancipation
was not enough. Real emancipation, in the Marxist sense, could
only be achieved by the total destruction of Christianity.
A tidal wave of atheism rolled across Europe in the wake of
Marxism, inundating the low places in Christendom;-surged across
the seas to America; rising higher and higher to wash against the
walls of colleges and universities,-even to the pulpits of churches
that had withstood fire and sword. As the muddy waters churned
and seethed the flags of proud States went down to be lost in the
flotsam and filth of the flood. Where the waters receded there
appeared great scars of erosion on the face of the earth ;-scars
that reflected the dwindling dignity of man and his vanishing
freedoms.
The apostles of Marx had succeeded better than they knew.
Religious faith and value appeared to be crumbling under the
lashing waves of the flood. Eternal truths fled before the raucous
shouts and taunts of sensual multitudes, and a long, black night
descended over the earth.
Out of the chaos of the Nineteenth Century arose the powers
of Communism and Zionism. Each made its appearance in Russia
at almost the same moment;-springing full-grown ideologically
from the minds of the same ethnic group. One movement announced
that it sought world power and intended to take it through revolutionary action. The other group announced its purpose to acquire
territory that did not belong to it and demanded exceptional powers
and privileges everywhere else in the world. In 1918 both groups
attained world significance: Zionism in the Balfour Declaration,
and Communism in the Russian November revolution. When the
confusion of World War I had passed away only Communism and
Zionism could claim victories; the Soviet Union in Russia for the
Communists, and the beachhead in Palestine for the Zionists,and both movements appeared to be under the same management.
Through the years both powers supported, promoted and protected
each other. Both emphasized "anti-Semitism" in their propaganda
programs, extending it, where advantageous, to include other
"minority groups" in the area of their advance. Nationalism every-

ANTI-GENTI LISM

241

where was the perpetual target of the day, yet both movements
preached a chauvinistic nationalism never before known. Both
planted agents In the governments of the world and manipulated
compliant officials to their will. Where expedient they waved the
ftag and declared that "Communism is Twentieth Century Americanism" and that allegiance to Israel is "American patriotism".
Both advocated "oneworldism" and the surrender of the sovereignties of nations to the super-government they intend to create
and are determined to control. Both are anti-Christian; both are
anti-Republic. Each extol the virtues of democracy while practicing totalitarianism. Both denounce "racism" and "nordic superiority" while professing to be the elite of the world and the
Chosen People. Adherents of each group considers themselves
~:;trangers sojourning in the land of their birth or residence, surrounded by hostile people. They are convinced that they must
bend these foes to their will, utterly exterminate them, or be
destroyed themselves.
"Anti-Semitism" is largely a myth. It is a "brain-washing"
word in the same category with the term "red-baiters" of the thirties.
A slight bit of research and a little analysis reveals that it is a
machiavellian devise for ideological warfare,-and that it is used
solely for that purpose. The average curious investigator will
find few individuals-if in fact he can find one-who has antipathy
for hatred's sake of the Semites of the world. The modern useand intended implication-becomes clear when it is known that
the word "Semite" was originally employed by J. G. Eichhorn at
the close of the Eighteenth Century to designate the "sons of Shem"
which included the Babylonians, Assyrians, Aramaeans, Phoenicians
and various other peoples of Southeastern Asia. Today the term
1s much more properly applied to Arabs than to Jews. Paradoxically
the most anti-Semitic person in the world is the non-Semitic Khazar
Jew because this Jew covets the Semitic Arab's land and possessions.
In fact, the greatest anti-Semitic act of the ages was the driving
out by the new State of Israel of nearly a million Arab people
who are ev~n today hungry and homeless in the desert,-an act
of bloody rapine performed by non-Semitic Khazars.
Anti-Semitism, then, is an important propaganda term, designedly provocative both in attack and defense. Its most modern
and effective use originated in Russia after the successful Bolshevik
revolution. The laws enacted against "anti-Semitism" by the
Soviets sought to silence criticism of the Jewish leadership of the
Bolshevist government, and the term was used solely in its ethnic
meaning. Since then Communists and organized Jewry have
employed the term everywhere, seeking, not the protection of
the Jewish people, but protection against criticism of organized
Jewry's political activities and objectives. The opprobrium is as

242

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

ruthlessly thrown-and with equal venom- at Jew as well as

Gentile,-whenever a Jew presumes to criticize the policies of
self-appointed "officials" of Jewish organizations who boldly claim
the right to speak for him. AntiSemitism is, literally speaking,
non-existent except in the attitude of Khazar Jews toward the Arabs.
Herzl declared that the Jews are what the Ghetto made them.
He either believed that the Ghetto was forced on the Jews or
neglected to say that the Ghetto was strictly a Jewish institution.
The fact is that Jewish leadership fought for, e8tablished, and resisted the abolition of, the Ghetto. Without elaboration or explanation Herzl accepted antiSemitism in its literal sense, although
apparently recognizing the obvious fact that there were Jews who
might not exactly be considered "excellent men." Despairing of
solving "the Jewish question" in a sensible and rational manner
he strengthened his Zionist scheme by concluding that "the nations
in whose midst Jews live, are all either covertly or openly antiSemitic."
The proposition that some people are possessed of an in
grained, unreasonable dislike or hatred of other people, or of
a particular people, philosophy, or religion or what-not, is a com
paratively recent weapon in ideological warfare. "Attitudes" do
not just happen; they are the result of some ::au'iation,-the effect
-and not the origin-of a chain of experiences. The child with
the burned finger does not suddenly develop .m "attitude" against
fire,-he has experienced its effect. To assert that there has never
been universal dislike and distrust of the Jews would be denying
or ignoring the records of history. It is a fact that historians do
not magnify or underscore, but a phenomenon that organized Jewry
perpetuates and emphasizes. According to Jewish propaganda no
other people have been so universally despised, excoriated and
persecuted. To ask the Jewish propagandist for the causes of
this univrsal hatred, this excoriation, this cruel treatment, is to
be branded, without further hearing, an incurable "Nazi", a "Fascist" and an "anti-Semite." The tacit assumption-which must be
the "attitude" of all concerned if they are to escape vicious condemnation- is that the Jews are the most innocent, the purest, the
most lovable and the most virtuous of all mankind; that their
oppressors-Christians for the greater part-are the most brutal,
the most evil, the most heartless and the most degenerated of all
the people on the earth.
To accept this assumption as true is to be hopelessly stupid.
No people are wholly bad or wholly good. Both the good and the
bad reputations of a given people are traceable, in large measure,
to the good-will, the ambitions, the intrigues and the characteristics
of their leaders. Thus a Napoleon may earn a bad reputation for
the French; a George III a bad name for the English; and a Hitler

ANTI-GENTIL~SM

243

a Mussolini and a Stalin an evil character for the respective

peoples of the countries they rule. But in between, before, and
after, there are other leaders who exemplify the virtues of the people
they represent, so that they are known as gen~rous, forgiving, humaneand compassionate where on other occasions they had appeared
grasping, vengeful, inhuman and ruthless. But, thunders organized
Zionism, wherever the Jew sojourned, there he was hated, robbed
and persecuted. Nation after nation opened their arms to wandering Jews time and time again only to officially expel them when
they had an opportunity to get acquainted with them. According
to organized Jewry's account there were no exceptions recorded
on history's pages;-no instance where "they lived happily ever
after." Only periods of sinister calms while the Christian persecutors recovered their breath and energies for new and more
frightful atrocities against them.
What must an honest and impartial student of such a story
reasonably conclude? That the Christians are, and always have
been, a brutalized and unregenerated lot? That the Jew has always
been an innocent victim, without evil, without provocation and
without fault? Only an idiot or a partisan might so conclude.
Reason dictates that no man or group of men may claim perfection.
To assert that everyone is out of step but Jim is to be either
completely blind to Jim's shortcomings or a bigoted liar. Reason
therefore dictates that the Jewish assertion of universal hatred
of the Jews was either deserved or that the assertion is untrue.
People have always reacted in much the same way as they do
today. There isn't much evidence at hand to prove that they are
much better or much worse in our time than they have been through
the ages. Kindness, decency, and courtesy have always been contageous and good-will always created good-will. If there has been
universal dislike and distrust of the Jews then it is necessary to
look for the cause. It is unreasonable to believe that the Jews
themselves, merely because they are Jews, wer~ the cause.
The answer must be found in the character of Jewish leadership.
The cry of "religious persecution" began to sound hollow a
long time ago. It was used in the beginning as the term "racism"
is employed today, and for the same purpose. It was designed to
amalgamate Jewish interest with dissonant Christian sects for
the advancement of Jewish ambitions. Wherever it has been
possible it has been organized Jewry that has engaged in "religious
persecution." While there have been, are, and undoubtedly will continue to be, doctrinal disagreements within the Christian churches
none of these disputes attack the basis of Christianity itself. One
need only turn to the "Jewish Year Books" and scan the list of
"Christological manifestations" under attack by organized Jewry to
get a picture of religious persecution in the United States. (See

244

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

Both the Catholic and Protestant respects

the followers of Judaism. Only organized Jewry appears to hate
Christianity. Its long record of strenuous effort to eradicate every
vestige of Christian expression from eveyday life in America is
easily discovered.
Herzl was quick to point out that "modern anti-Semitism is
not to be confounded with the religious persecution of the Jews
of former times." He did not believe that the question was
social. To the founder of Zionism "anti-Semitism" was a "national"
question, because the Jews "are a people-one people."
Jewish writers and Gentile apologists have offered self-serving
"reasons" for anti-Semitism. Jewish writers, without attempting
to refute the charges, appear to be the first to explain Jewish
persecution on the ground that Jews were ''falsely alleged" to
constitute a "race" bent upon exploiting the Gentile populations
among whom they lived. A second theory of m~re recent invention
is the "scapegoat" theme. In the same manner that Marxists
reason fascism to be the .product of expiring capitalism, some
Jewish writers profess to explain anti-Semitism as a product of
"decaying social systems." In some instances the reasoning is
identical. The "decaying social order" through its ."bankrupt
leadership" incites the mobs to pogroms against the Jews to
deflect the wrath of the impoverished away from the "landlords";
calls for Jewish persecution so that "exploited workers" may direct
their violence against the "innocent Israelites" instead of the
"voracious employers and officials." It should be apparent that
this explanation is without rhyme or reason. It is pure invention
without historical documentation; a gross insult to Christendom
thiAly veiled in psychological speculation.
What, then, is the basis for alleged anti-Semitism?
The answer is that anti-Semitism is non-existent. It is a term
of Communist and Zionist invention to shield anti-Gentilism. "The
Jews are a distinct nationality" declared Justice Louis D. Brandeis
of the Supreme Court of the United States. Said Theodor Herzl:
"I will give you my definition of a nation; and you can add the
adjective 'Jewish.' A Nation is, in my mind, an historical group
of men of recognizable cohesion held together by a common
enemy. Then, if you add to that the word 'Jewish' you have what
I understand to be the Jewish Nation."
"Anti-Semitism", therefore, may be said to be paint on Zion's
Trojan Horse.
The "common enemy" of the Jewish Nation, on Herzl's authority, is Christianity. The leaders of Jewry through the ages
looked upon Chirstians everywhere through the eyes of Simon ben
Yohai and their ingrained attitude was perpetually anti-Gentile
Zion's Fifth Column).

ANTI-GENTI LISM

245

and anti-Christian. Such an attitude drilled into the hearts and

the minds of succeeding generations of Jews must necessarily be
reflected in their daily contacts and dealings with the despised
enemy;:.__mus; necessaril~ chafe and Inflame the concealed resentment smoldering in the breasts of every one of them. To be
the elite, the Chosen people,-the People of the Covenant, and yet
to be compelled to seek haven and refuge in the lands of the
"mortal foe" must be humiliating and frustrating beyond endurance.
To outwit, to trick, to maneuver and manipulate the enemy becomes
an outlet for suppressed hatred. When their guiles are discovered
arid the wrath of the deceived fall upon their heads they cry out
that they are the victims of "religious persecution" and "antiSemitism."
Among the many illustrations of this characteristic of Jewish
leadership rna~ be mentioned the Jewish Socialist Bund uprising in
Odessa, Russia -in 1905. The reign of terror was insolent, antiNational, violent and bloody. Rich Jewish merchants financed the
purchase of arms which were distributed among several thousands
of the younger men. Mobs of these armed Jews paraded the streets
carrying the red flag. Believing they had succeeded in the revolt
they proclaimed the South Russian Republic. The Municipal
Council of Odessa formed itself into a Committee of Public Safety
and issued a series of decrees in the presence of delegations from
the Bund. Desiring to cripple the armed power, the Jews demanded
the withdrawal of the regular military forces, the disarming of
the police and the establishment of a citizenship-militia. When
the counter-revolution came and the Bundists were hunted down
and arrested the cry of "anti-Semitism" led many in other lands
to believe that- Czarist Russia had again embarked upon a cruel
pogrom against the Jews.
There may have been and there probably were instances of
unfounded abuse of the Jews. To believe otherwise is to be as
bigoted as organized Jewry. History records many injustices to
many people, the least of which, incidentally, were the Jews. But,
unless Christianity is willing to assume the role organized Jewry
has written for it-that of a brutal, inhuman, unreasoning mass
of sadistic tyrants and despots-the alleged universal distrust and
dislike of the Jews must have been merited. And-in case this
may be quoted out of context-let it be remembered that it Is
organized Jewry who poses the universal Jewish persecution postulate.
The crux of the subject of "anti-Semitism" is to be found in
the Nazi-like concept of race-purity and race-superiority;_ in the
obsession that the Jew, regardless of his country, his station in
life, the shade of his belief or lack of belief, his political orientation,
or any other consideration, is a member of a distinct and specW.Z

248

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

nationa~ity.

"To deny Jewish nationality," asserts one Jewish

authority, "you must deny the existence of the Jew." Leon Simon
declared that "Judaism has no message of salvation for the
individual soul, as Chirstianity has; all its ideas are bound up
with the existence of the Jewish nation." And Moses Hess, "the
Communist Rabbi," wrote that "every Jew is, whether he wishes it
or not, solidly united with the entire nation."
Is this not the basic center of Hitler's dream of the Third
Reich;-the iqgathering of the "blood-brothers"-the protection
and liberation of German "minorities"? Did Hitler demand or
claim more for the German people than Simon, Herzl, Hess and
Brandeis demanded and claimed for the Jews? The answer to this
may be that Hitler was modest by comparison.
The result of such philosophy-and the subject might be
extended ad infinitum-is the creation of a monolithic concept -of
race-superiority that defiies every effort of good-will for the establishment of the brotherhood of man.

XII
CHANCE OR DESIGN?
As we look back over the history of the last hundred years a
number of events stand out in bold relief against the tumult and
the shouting. Important among these events are the rise of
Marxism, the rise of political Zionism, the frenzied mobilization
of world Jewry, the Balfour Declaration, the triumph. of Communism
in Russia: World War I, the League of Nations, the Great Depression, World War II, the United Nations and the invasion and
the conquest of Palestine. There were many other events, of
course, but none with such sweeping continuity and importance;
none of such magnitude in world shaking consequence.
Were these events the disconnected results of the muddled
minds that purported to direct the destiny of nations? Were they
merely the accidental sum totals of mistaken calculations? Were
they the chance results of a careless throw of dice from the
trembling hands of an insane Destiny?
Are they connected in such a manner as to indicate the result
of clever planning? Does each event follow in natural sequence
and in logical order?

We believe that each event is a logical step in a predetermined

schedule; each incident a link in a chain carefully designd and
forged; each catastrophe a check-mark on a time-table to world

CHANCE OR DESIGN 'l

247

conquest. We venture the opinion that there remains but two

further important events for the successful culmination of a welllaid plan,-World War III and World Government.
It should be made clear in this analysis that world Jewry:
although it may be the means, is as much a victim in this scheme
of things as are the Gentiles. And although world Jewry may be
the means, compliant Gentile officialdom is the instrument.
Marxism may be said to be a devise for deChristianizing Christendom; a chisel for dividing Nations and fragmentizing its citizenry. It is, in addition, an atheistic philosophy for brutalizing
humanity, a doctrine of hate, of violence and bloodshed. Its battle
cry of "brotherhood" and "equality" are deceptive slogans for classhatred and slavery. Wherever Marxism has marched, brother has
hated brother; its trail has been marked by mountains of dead and
rivers of blood. The internationalism it preaches is designed to
smother patriotism so that its victims will not resist conquest; its
"classless society" is a world of slaves and masters. Through the
years from the "Communist Manifes~o" in 1848 its sinister doctrines
have been preached wherever men might listen. Its oriental devices have been refined and perfected, and its trickery is practiced
by cunning men throughout the world. Its doctrines have been
carried by Jewish emigrants into the crowded places of the Diaspora
where Jewish Socialist Bund branches nourished them and injected
their virus into the blood-streams of other nations. Its inhuman
philosophy bears the mark of Cain. Its gross materialism ha~
stripped the world of its values and ushered in the Age of Delusion.
Its devisive technique is an important part in a plan,-perhaps the
plan itself.
As the years marched by, Marx's disciple, Moses Hess, would
preach of Utopia in Zion, and another Marxist, Ferdinand Lassalle,
would mobilize the proletariat for political power. A Pinsker
and a Ginzberg would sing of Zion and ultimately a Herzl would
proclaim the Jewish State. World Jewry would mobilize and a first
World War would wring a declaration for a "Jewish Homeland
in Palestine" from an English Balfour,-persuaded to barter
an innocent people for dubious Jewish assistance in a great
conflict. A Jewish chemist with first hand knowledge of the
chemical wealth of an ancient body of water (the Dead Sea) would
negotiate the deal and ultimately become the first president of the
betrayed land.
With the passing of time a blood-red dawn would suddenly
break over Holy Russia. Exiled refugees would return. from New
York's East side to attack Russia's new. Republic, while stabbing
her bleeding armies in the back. Fires of revolt would sweep
over the doomed nation-: Jewish bankers would supply finances
for Bolshevik armies led by a Jew from the Ukraine, and, in the .

end freedom would perish and the Russian revolution would succeed.
Jews with no official status whatever would descend on Paris
when World War I had ended to demand a League of Nations and
the inclusion of its own "minority" clauses in peace treaties imposed
upon the lands carved out of nations broken by war. The un
suspecting Peace Conference officials would comply; the Jewish
clauses would be imposed, and the League of Nations would come
into being.
In the years of its decline the League of Nations would become
a disappointment to organized Jewry and its ultimate failure
would be attributed by Jewish leaders to the "narrow patriotism"
of the American people who blocked United States' participation.
Its failure would be part of a plan that failed, but it would not be
the failure of the plan.

As the years rolled along there would come great prosperity.

An alien Jew from Germany would have reorganized the banking
.6ystem of the United States to more closely conform to the banking
institutions controlled and operated by his Jewish brethren in
Eurepe. He would presume to rewrite the banking laws of his
adopted country and ultimately sit in an important position on
the Board of the Federal Reserve Bank of the United States. Fin
ancial panic would follow. prosperity and a hungry people would
turn to any Pied Piper with a plan for sustenance. Communism
would become fashionable and its agents would find influential
places at the shoulders of the rulers of the world. Agents of
Zionism and Communism would become lagos to the nations'
Othellos and World War II would be in the making.
World War II! As we now contemplate it in its proper perspective it seems to fill an important gap in the picture that is
taking shape in our jig-saw puzzle. Was this world conflagration
the natural, rea11onable and logical outgrowth of the conflict of
national interests? Is there anything significant in the first phase
of the war (September 1939 to May 1940) which was called "phony";
the long months when the English and French faced the armies of
Germany and did nothing much about it? During the thirty-five
days of the Polish campaign and for about eight months thereafter,
the quiet of the western front was unbroken. Could it _be possible
that this strange, passive inactivity on the part of hostile powers
had some connection with the tramp of Soviet boots into Poland,
Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania? What part did the Communist Parties of the world play in the "sitzkrieg" that marked
the pastoral peace of the western front? What mysterious force
caused the National Committee of the Communist Party of the
United States to declare in October 1939 that "this war ... is not
a war against fascism, not a war to protect small nations from
ag$ression . . . " and to declare just as ~mphatically in July of

CHANCE OR DESIGN?

249

1941 "down with the criminal war of German fascism against the
Soviet Union"? Did it make sense in the beginning? In the middle,
or in the end?
These are a few of the many questions that no one has satisfactorily answered. Perhaps they cannot be answered in the course
of conventional inquiry. They scarce may be asked without provoking disapproval. The question-marks loom larger in perspective and inquiring minds must necessarily seek answers behind the
iron curtain of censorship and secrecy--even into the dark recesses
of diplomatic intrigue where no confidential documents are filed.
To speak of Yalta and Potsdam is to provoke another torrent
of questions. The betrayal of Poland and China and other loyal
allies; Korea and the defeat of American arms under United Nations
direction ;-all these things-and many more--cry out for explanation and clarification. Whatever is said,-no matter how well said
--no matter how cleverly composed-the eternal question-mark
remains. Is it because no one dares ask about the unknown
quantity; the missing "x" in the equation?
Ambitious men have been known to deliberately provoke war
in order to advance their own interests. History calmly records
their steps of provocation; frankly traces the design of their
deadly maneuvers. They were usually men who headed petty principalities although there were others who headed great States.
In every case they gambled their own necks and fortunes on the
outcome of the conflict and often shared the fate of the most humble
of their people in the disaster of the conflagration they kindled.
History does not speak kindly of such men.
That it is possible to promote and instigate wars is plainly
obvious. Is it possible, on the other hand, for third parties to
instigate war? Is it possible that men may be capable of adroitly
promoting antagonisms between nations and cleverly maneuvering
them into hostile positions from which they are unable to extricate
themselves without resort to armed conflict? The answer, on the
record of history, must be in the affirmative. It is neither fantastic
nor incredible. War is but the natural contin:mtion of frustrated
diplomacy and the bayonet is easily substituted for the umbrella.
And it is not improbable that wars have been instigated by third
parties. Quite a number of historical instances may be found. In
each case the conspirator must desire the ultimate weakness of
the warring powers and he must have an interest in the aftermath
of war. He must necessarily have the confidence of the leaders
of both sides of the conflict; either personally or through trusted
agents. He must be powerful in his own way, machiavelian in his
methods, and ruthless in the execution of his plan.
Is it possible for an international organization to deliberately
maneuver nations into a world war? The answer again must be

250

ZION'S TROJAN HORSE

in the affirmative. What type of organization would be capable

of succeeding in such an action? Only an organization devoid of
any allegiance whatever to any nation and whose objetives exclude
the interests of the organized states of the world. Its particular
interests and objectives must be served in some manner by the
devastating aftermath of war. It must have exhausted its efforts
in the fields of propaganda and diplomacy. Such an organization
must be Jed by men who are international in thought and action.
They must be men who are incurably hostile to the world and
who are convinced that the world is hostile to them and all they
represent. They must, of necessity, believe themselves superior
to all others and have an abiding faith that their objectives are
sacred. They must be convinced that the end thoroughly justifies
the means. They must be possessed of unlimited funds and sup
ported by innumerable loyal agents. They must have access to the
ears of the mighty and their agents must have the confidence of
the powerful in every important post throughout the world. They
must be .able to manipulate the mysteries of finance and control
the minds and actions of people everywhere. They must be in
control of the means of communication and dominate the propaganda media throughout the world. And, finally, they must have
a well conceived plan that allows for errors and failures; a plan
that reckons the possibiity of road-blocks and delays, but charts
the methods of demolition where possible and the shortest detours
where other devices fail. They must be men who are endowed with
oriental patience as well as oriental cunning; m~n who might spend
a life-time picking a lock so that their successors might enter the
door.
