- Today I begin with a repetition of what I
said before, and I beg
you to bear in mind that governments and people are content with the
outside appearances of their political process.
And how, indeed, are the Goyim to see the deeper meaning of things when
their representatives are mainly focused on enjoying
themselves? For our policy, it is of the greatest importance
to be aware of this fact; it will be of assistance to us when we come
to consider how to delegate the proper authority in matters of
property, of housing, of taxation (including the idea of concealed
taxes), and of the automatic enforcement of the laws.
All these questions are such that they should not be touched upon or
debated directly in public. In cases where it is necessary to
touch upon them, the details of those cases must not be specifically
discussed. It must merely be declared that the principles of
current law are acknowledged by us.
The reason for keeping silence in this respect is that by not naming a
principle we leave ourselves some freedom, to drop this or that out of
it without attracting notice. If the principles of law we
were supposed to be following were all categorically named they would
be appear to have been proven true.
- The mob cherishes a special affection and respect for the
geniuses of political power and accepts all their deeds of violence
with the admiring response: "Unscrupulous?, well, yes, it is
unscrupulous, but it's clever! ... a mischievous trick, if you like,
but how craftily played, how magnificently done, what barefaced
daring!" ...
Our
Goal: World Power
- We depend upon attracting all nations to
the task of building our new political structure. The project
plan for this has been drawn up by us.
This is why, before everything, it is essential for us to arm ourselves
and to install in ourselves that absolutely reckless daring and
unstoppable motivation which will break down all hindrances on our way.
- When we
have accomplished our government overthrow we shall then say to the
various peoples: "Everything has gone terribly wrong.
Everyone has been worn out with suffering. We are destroying
the causes of your torment – nationalities, borders,
different currencies. You are free, of course, to pronounce
sentence upon us, but can it possibly be a just one if you pronounce it
before you properly try out what we are offering you?" ...
Then the mob will praise us and give us their support in a unanimous
triumph of hopes and expectations.
Voting, which we have made
the instrument that will set us on the throne of the world by teaching
even the very smallest units of members of the human race to vote by
means of meetings and agreements by groups, will then have served its
purposes and will play its part then for the last time by a unanimity
of desire to make close acquaintance with us before condemning us.
- To secure
this we must have everybody vote without regard to their social class
or qualifications, in order to establish an absolute
majority, which can’t get from the educated wealthy classes.
In this way, by impressing in all a sense of self-importance, we shall
destroy among the Goyim the importance of the family and its
educational value and remove the possibility of individual minds
splitting off, because the mob majority, who is handled by us, will not
let them come to the front nor even give them a hearing; it is
accustomed to listen to us only who pay it for obedience and attention.
In this way we shall create a blind, mighty force which will never be
in a position to move in any direction without the guidance of our
agents set at its head by us as leaders of the mob. The
people will submit to this regime because it knows that it will depend
upon these leaders for its earnings, gratifications and the receipt of
all kinds of benefits.
- A scheme of government should come ready made from one
brain, because it will never be clinched firmly if it is allowed to be
split into fractional parts in the minds of many.
It is allowable, therefore, for us to have knowledge of the scheme of
action but not to discuss it lest we disturb its cunning, the
interdependence of its component parts, and the practical force behind
the secret meaning of each clause.
To discuss and make alterations in this manner by means of much voting
gives those alterations the appearance of have being arrived at by the
process of logical and methodical reasoning. And any
misunderstandings of these alterations will prevent the public from
seeing into the next connected link of our scheme.
We want our schemes to be forcible and suitably devised.
Therefore we ought not
to let our well thought-out plans be revealed to the
public as a whole or even to a select group of them.
- These schemes will not turn existing institutions upside
down just yet. They will only effect changes in their economy
and consequently in the whole combined movement of their progress,
which will then be directed along the paths laid down in our schemes.
The
Poison of Liberalism
- In each country there exists a group of
governing bodies. They go under various names but they are
essentially the same thing, namely the: Representation, Ministry,
Senate, State Council, Legislative and Executive Corps.
I needn’t explain how these institutions relate to one
another, because you are aware of all that. But take note of
the fact that each of the above-named institutions corresponds to some
important function of the State; and by "important" I don’t
mean the institution, but its function. I.e. it’s
not the institutions that are important but their functions.
These institutions have divided up among themselves all the functions
of government – administrative, legislative, executive; and
they operate together in much the same way as organs in the human body.
If we injure one part in the machinery of State, the State falls sick,
like a human body, and ... will die.
- When we introduced into the State organism the poison of
Liberalism its whole political complexion changed. States
have been seized with a mortal illness – a blood
poisoning. All that remains is to await the end of their
death agony.
- Liberalism produced Constitutional States, which took
the place of what was the only safeguard of the Goyim, namely,
Despotism. And a
constitution, as you well know, is nothing but a system of strife,
misunderstandings, quarrels, disagreements, fruitless party agitations,
party whims – in a word, a system of everything that serves
to destroy the personality of State activity.
The tribe of the
"talking heads" has, no less effectively than the press, condemned
the rulers to inactivity and impotence, and thereby
rendered them useless and superfluous, and this is the reason why they
have been removed from office in many countries.
At that point the
era of republics could come into being; and then we replaced the ruler
with a mockery of a government – by a president, taken from
the mob, from the midst of our puppet creatures, or slaves.
This was the foundation of the time-bomb which we have placed under the
Goy people, or I should rather say, under the Goy peoples.
- Soon we shall assign the duties of presidents.
- By that time we shall be in a position to disregard the
procedures normally required to accomplish our necessary tasks because
our impersonal puppet will be able do it directly.
What do we care if the ranks of those striving for power should be
weakened, if a deadlock arises from the impossibility of finding
presidents – a deadlock which will finally disorganize the
country? ...
- In order that our scheme may produce this result we shall
arrange elections in favor of such presidents who have some dark,
undiscovered disgrace in their past, some sinister secret –
then they will be trustworthy agents for the accomplishment of our
plans out of fear of revelations and from the natural desire of
everyone who has attained power, namely, the retention of the
privileges, advantages and honor connected with the office of president.
The chamber of deputies will provide cover for, will protect, and will
elect presidents; but we shall take from it the right to propose new
laws, or make changes to existing laws, for this right will be given by
us to the president responsible, who is a really just puppet in our
hands.
Naturally, the authority of the presidents will then become a target
for every possible form of attack. But we shall provide him
with a means of self-defense in the right of an appeal to the
people. The decision of the people outranks the decision of
the representatives who may wish to oppose the president. So
that appeal will go to a blind slave of ours – the majority
of the mob.
Independently of this we shall give the president the right of
declaring a state of war. We shall justify this last right on
the ground that the president, as chief of the whole army of the
country, must have access to that right, in case he needs to defend the
new republican constitution. That right to defend will belong
to him as the responsible representative of this constitution.
- It should be easy to understand that under these
conditions, the ‘magic lamp’ will be in our hands,
and no one other than us will any longer have control over determining
legislation.
- Besides this we shall, with the introduction of the new
republican constitution, take from the Chamber the right of inserting
new legislation on government measures, on the pretext of preserving
national security, and further, we shall use the new constitution to
reduce the number of representatives to a minimum, thereby
proportionately reducing political passions and the passion for
politics.
If, however, these passions should burst into flame, which is hardly to
be expected, not even to a small degree, we shall nullify them by a
stirring appeal and making a reference to the majority opinion of the
voting population ... The president will have the power to appoint the
presidents and vice-presidents of the Chamber and the Senate.
Instead of constant sessions of Parliaments we shall reduce their
sittings to a few months. Moreover, the president, as chief
of the executive power, will have the right to summon and dissolve
Parliament, and, in the latter case, to prolong the time for the
appointment of a new parliamentary assembly.
These presidential actions may be considered illegal, and as a result,
the representatives and public might then start attacking the
president. This could be a problem for our plans if it
happened prematurely. In order to avoid the blame from being
pushed onto the president, we
shall encourage ministers and other officials of the higher
administration to evade his plans by taking actions of their own.
In doing so they will be made scapegoats in his place. This
part we especially recommend should be played by the Senate, the
Council of State, or the Council of Ministers, but not by an individual
official.
- The president will, at our discretion, interpret the
meaning of existing laws and point out that there are already various
interpretations of them; he will further annul them when we indicate to
him the necessity to do so. Besides this, he will have the
right to propose temporary laws, and even new departures in the
government’s constitutional working. The pretext
both for doing these things will be the requirements for the supreme
welfare of the State.
We Shall
Destroy
- By these actions we shall obtain the power
of destroying the constitutions of the States. We shall do
this by introducing into those constitutions, little by little, step by
step, all those things which we have determined are our rights from the
outset. This will cause an imperceptible abolition of every
kind of constitution, and then the time will have come to turn every
form of government into our
despotism.
- The recognition of our despot may also come before the
destruction of the constitution; the moment for this recognition will
come when the peoples, utterly wearied by the irregularities and
incompetence – a matter which we shall have arranged for
– will exclaim of their rulers:
"Away with them and give us one king over all the earth who will unite
us and annihilate the causes of disorders - frontiers, nationalities,
religions and State debts – who will give us peace and quiet
which we cannot find under our rulers and representatives."
- But you yourselves know perfectly well that to produce the possibility of the
expression of such wishes by all the nations it is necessary to trouble
the people's relations with their governments in all countries to such
a degree that it will utterly exhaust humanity with dissension, hatred,
struggle, envy and even by the use of torture, by starvation, by the
spreading of diseases, or extreme poverty. As a result of
this, the Goyim will see no other solution than to take refuge in our
complete sovereignty, in our money and in all else that we offer.
- But if we give the nations of the world a breathing
space, the moment we long for is hardly ever likely to arrive.
