> Of course, you do resent us. It is no good telling me you don't. So

> To be sure, some of your best friends are Jews, and all that. I
> have heard that before once or twice, I think. And I know, too,
> that you do not include me personally being any particular
> individual Jew -- when you fling out at us in your wholesale

> That little exemption does not, somehow, move me to gratitude; but
> never mind that now. It is the aggressive, climbing, pushing,
> materialistic sort you dislike -- those, in a word, who remind you
> so much of your own up-and-coming brethren. We understand each
> other perfectly. I don't hold it against you.
>
> Bless my soul, I do not blame anybody for disliking anybody. The
> thing that intrigues me about this anti-Jewish business, as you
> play at it, is your total lack of grit. You are so indirect and
> roundabout with it, you make such transparent excuses, you seem to
> be suffering from self-consciousness so horribly, that if the
> performance were not grotesque, it would be irritating.
>
> It is not as if you were amateurs: you have been at it for over
> fifteen centuries. Yet watching you and hearing your childish
> pretexts, one might get the impression that you did not know
> yourselves what it is all about. You resent us, but you can not
> clearly say why.
>
> You think up a new excuse -- a reason is what you call it -- every
> other day. You have been piling up justifications for yourselves
> these many hundreds of years and each new invention is more
> laughable than the last and each new excuse contradicts and
> annihilates the last.
>
> Not so many years ago I used to hear that we were money-grubbers
> and commercial materialists; now the complaint is being whispered
> around that no art and no profession is safe against Jewish
> invasion.
>
> We are, if you are to be believed, at once clannish and exclusive
> and unassimilable because we won't intermarry with you, and we are
> also climbers and pushers and a menace to your racial integrity.
>
> Our standard of living is so low that we create your slums and
> sweated industries, and so high that we crowd you out of your best
> residential sections.
>
> We shirk our patriotic duty in wartime because we are pacifists by
> nature and tradition, and we are the arch-plotters of universal
> wars and the chief beneficiaries of those wars (see the late
> Dearborn Independent passim, and The Protocols of the Elders of
> Zion ).
>
> We are at once the founders and leading adherents of capitalism and
> the chief perpetrators of the rebellion against capitalism.
>
> Surely, history has nothing like us for versatility!
>
> And, oh! I almost forgot the reason of reasons. We are the
> stiff-necked people who never accepted Christianity, and we are the
> criminal people who crucified its founder.
>
> But I can tell you, you are self-deceivers. You lack either the
> self-knowledge or the mettle to face the facts squarely and own up
> to the truth. You resent the Jew not because, as some of you seem
> to think, he crucified Jesus but because he gave him birth. Your
> real quarrel with us is not that we have rejected Christianity but
> that we have imposed it upon you!
>
> Your loose, contradictory charges against us are not a patch on the
> blackness of our proved historic offense. You accuse us of stirring
> up revolution in Moscow. Suppose we admit the charge. What of it?
> Compared with what Paul the Jew of Tarsus accomplished in Rome, the
> Russian upheaval is a mere street brawl.
>
> You make much noise and fury about the undue Jewish influence in
> your theaters and movie palaces. Very good; granted your complaint
> is well-founded. But what is that compared to our staggering
> influence in your churches, your schools, your laws and your
> governments, and the very thoughts you think every day?
>
> A clumsy Russian forges a set of papers and publishes them in a
> book called The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, which shows that
> we plotted to bring on the late World War. You believe that book.
> All right. For the sake of argument we will underwrite every word
> of it. It is genuine and authentic.
>
> But what is that beside the unquestionable historical conspiracy
> which we have carried out, which we have never denied because you
> never had the courage to charge us with it, and of which the full
> record is extant for anybody to read?
>
> If you really are serious when you talk of Jewish plots, may I not
> direct your attention to one worth talking about? What use is it
> wasting words on the alleged control of your public opinion by
> Jewish financiers, newspaper owners and movie magnates, when you
> might as well justly accuse us of the proved control of your whole
> civilization by the Jewish Gospels?
>
> You have not begun to appreciate the real depth of our guilt. We
> are intruders. We are disturbers. We are subverters. We have taken
> your natural world, your ideals, your destiny, and played havoc
> with them. We have been at the bottom not merely of the latest
> great war but of nearly all your wars, not only of the Russian but
> of every other major revolution in your history. We have brought
> discord and confusion and frustration into your personal and public
> life. We are still doing it. No one can tell how long we shall go
> on doing it.
>
> Look back a little and see what has happened. Nineteen hundred
> years ago you were an innocent, care- free, pagan race. You
> worshipped countless gods and goddesses, the spirits of the air, of
> the running streams and of the woodland. You took unblushing pride
> in the glory of your naked bodies. You carved images of your gods
> and of the tantalizing human figure. You delighted in the combats
> of the field, the arena and the battle-ground. War and slavery were
> fixed institutions in your systems.
>
> Disporting yourselves on the hillsides and in the valleys of the
> great outdoors, you took to speculating on the wonder and mystery
> of life and laid the foundations of natural science and philosophy.
> Yours was a noble, sensual culture, unirked by the prickings of a
> social conscience or by any sentimental questionings about human
> equality. Who knows what great and glorious destiny might have been
> yours if we had left you alone.
>
> But we did not leave you alone. We took you in hand and pulled down
> the beautiful and generous structure you had reared, and changed
> the whole course of your history. We conquered you as no empire of
> yours ever subjugated Africa or Asia. And we did it all without
> armies, without bullets, without blood or turmoil, without force of
> any kind. We did it solely by the irresistible might of our spirit,
> with ideas, with propaganda.
>
> We made you the willing and unconscious bearers of our mission to
> the whole world, to the barbarous races of the earth, to the
> countless unborn generations. Without fully understanding what we
> were doing to you, you became the agents at large of our racial
> tradition, carrying our gospel to the unexplored ends of the earth.
>
> Our tribal customs have become the core of your moral code. Our
> tribal laws have furnished the basic groundwork of all your august
> constitutions and legal systems. Our legends and our folk tales are
> the sacred lore which you croon to your infants. Our poets have
> filled your hymnals and your prayer books.
>
> Our national history has become an indispensable part of your
> pastors and priests and scholars. Our kings, our statesmen, our
> prophets, our warriors are your heroes. Our ancient little country
> is your Holy Land. Our national literature is your Holy Bible. What
> our people thought and taught has become inextricably woven into
> your very speech and tradition, until no one among you can be
> called educated who is not familiar with our racial heritage.
>
> Jewish artisans and Jewish fishermen are your teachers and your
> saints, with countless statues carved in their image and
> innumerable cathedrals raised to their memories. A Jewish maiden is
> your ideal of womanhood. A Jewish rebel-prophet is the central
> figure in your religious worship. We have pulled down your idols,
> cast aside your racial inheritance, and substituted for them our
> God and our traditions. No conquest in history can even remotely
> compare with this clean sweep of our conquest over you.
>
> How did we do it? Almost by accident. Two thousand years ago
> nearly, in far-off Palestine, our religion had fallen into decay
> and materialism. Money-changers were in possession of the temple.
> Degenerate, selfish priests mulcted our people and grew fat. Then
> a young patriot-idealist arose and went about the land calling for
> a revival of faith. He had no thought of setting up a new church.
>
> Like all the prophets before him, his only aim was to purify and
> revitalize the old creed. He attacked the priests and drove the
> money-changers from the temple. This brought him into conflict with
> the established order and its supporting pillars. The Roman
> authorities, who were in occupation of the country, fearing his
> revolutionary agitation as a political effort to oust them,
> arrested him, tried him and condemned him to death by crucifixion,
> a common form of execution at that time.
>
> The followers of Jesus of Nazareth, mainly slaves and poor workmen,
> in their bereavement and disappointment, turned away from the world
> and formed themselves into a brotherhood of pacifist non-
> resisters, sharing the memory of their crucified leader and living
> together communistically. They were merely a new sect in Judea,
> without power or consequence, neither the first nor the last.
>
> Only after the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans did the new
> creed come into prominence. Then a patriotic Jew named Paul or Saul
> conceived the idea of humbling the Roman power by destroying the
> morale or its soldiery with the doctrines of love and
> non-resistance preached by the little sect of Jewish Christians.
>
> He became the Apostle to the Gentiles, he who hitherto had been one
> of the most active persecutors of the band. And so well did Paul do
> his work that within four centuries the great empire which had
> subjugated Palestine along with half of the world, was a heap of
> ruins. And the law which went forth from Zion became the official
> religion of Rome.
>
> This was the beginning of our dominance in your world. But it was
> only a beginning. From this time forth your history is little more
> than a struggle for mastery between your own old pagan spirit and
> our Jewish spirit. Half your wars, great and little, are religious
> wars, fought over the interpretation of one thing or another in our
> teachings.
>
> You no sooner broke free from your primitive religious simplicity
> and attempted the practice of the pagan Roman learning than Luther
> armed with our gospels arose to down you and enthrone our heritage.
> Take the three principal revolutions in modern times -- the French,
> the American and the Russian. What are they but the triumph of the
> Jewish idea of social, political and economic justice?
>
> And the end is still a long way off. We still dominate you. At this
> very moment your churches are torn asunder by a civil war between
> Fundamentalists and Modernists, that is to say between those who
> cling to our teachings and traditions literally and those who are
> striving by slow steps to dispossess us.
>
> In Dayton, Tennessee, a Bible-bred community forbids the teaching
> of your science because it conflicts with our ancient Jewish
> account of the origin of life; and Mr. Bryan, the leader of the
> anti-Jewish Ku Klux Klan in the Democratic National Convention,
> makes the supreme fight of his life in our behalf, without noticing
> the contradiction.
>
> Again and again the Puritan heritage of Judea breaks out in waves
> of stage censorship, Sunday blue laws and national prohibition
> acts. And while these things are happening you twaddle about Jewish
> influence in the movies!
>
> Is it any wonder you resent us? We have put a clog upon your
> progress. we have imposed upon you an alien book and an alien faith
> which you cannot swallow or digest, which is at cross-purposes with
> your native spirit, which keeps you everlastingly ill-at-ease, and
> which you lack either to reject or to accept in full.
>
> In full, of course, you never have accepted our Christian
> teachings. In your hearts you still are pagans. You still love war
> and graven images and strife. You still take pride in the glory of
> the nude human figure. Your social conscience, in spit of all
> democracy and all your social revolutions, is still a pitifully
> imperfect thing.
>
> We have merely divided your soul, confused your impulses, paralyzed
> your desires. In the midst of battle you are obliged to kneel down
> to him who commanded you to turn the other cheek, who said Resist
> not evil and Blessed are the peacemakers. In your lust for gain you
> are suddenly disturbed by a memory from your Sunday-school days
> about taking no thought for the morrow.
>
> In your industrial struggles, when you would smash a strike without
> compunction, you are suddenly reminded that the poor are blessed
> and that men are brothers in the Fatherhood of the Lord. And as you
> are about to yield to temptation, your Jewish training puts a
> deterrent hand on your shoulder and dashes the brimming cup from
> your lips. You Christians have never become Christianized. To that
> extent we have failed with you. But we have forever spoiled the fun
> of paganism for you.
>
> So why should you not resent us? If we were in your place we should
> probably dislike you more cordially than you do us. But we should
> make no bones about telling you why. We should not resort to
> subterfuges and transparent pretexts. With millions of painfully
> respectable Jewish shopkeepers all about us we should not insult
> your intelligence and our own honesty by talking about communism as
> a Jewish philosophy.
>
> And with millions of hard-working impecunious Jewish peddlers and
> laborers we should not make ourselves ridiculous by talking about
> international capitalism as a Jewish monopoly. No, we should go
> straight to the point. We should contemplate this confused,
> ineffectual muddle which we call civilization, this half-Christian
> half-pagan medley, and -- were our places reversed -- we should say
> to you point-blank: For this mess thanks to you, to your prophets
> and to your Bible.
