Protocols of the Meetings of the Learned Elders of Zion: Protocol No. 16...
The practice of advocacy produces men cold, cruel,
persistent, unprincipled, who in all cases take up an impersonal
purely legal standpoint. They have the inveterate habit to refer
everything to its value for the defence, not to the public
welfare of its results. They do not usually decline to undertake
any defence whatever, they strive for an acquittal at all costs,
cavilling over every petty crux of jurisprudence and thereby they
demoralize justice. For this reason we shall set this profession
into narrow frames which will keep it inside this sphere of
executive public service. Advocates, equally with judges, will be
deprived of the right of communication with litigants; they will
receive business only from the court and will study it by notes
off report and documents, defending their clients after they have
been interrogated in court on facts that have appeared. They will
receive an honorarium without regard to the quality of the
defence. This will render them mere reporters on law-business in
the interests of justice and as counterpoise to the proctor who
will be the reporter in the interests of prosecution; this will
shorten business before the courts. In this way will be
established a practice of honest unprejudiced defence conducted
not from personal interest but by conviction. This will also, by
the way, remove the present practice of corrupt bargain between
advocates to agree only to let that side win which pays most...
We have long past taken care to discredit the priesthood of
the goyim, and thereby to ruin their mission on earth which in
these days might still be a great hindrance to us. Day by day its
influence on the peoples of the world is falling lower. Freedom
of conscience has been declared everywhere, so that now only
years divide us from the moment of the complete wrecking of that
Christian religion, as to other religions we shall have still
less difficulty in dealing with them, but it would be premature
to speak of this now. We shall set clericalism and clericals into
such narrow frames as to make their influence move in
retrogressive proportion to its former progress.
When the time comes finally to destroy the papal court the
finger of an invisible hand will point the nations towards this
court. When, however, the nations fling themselves upon it, we
shall come forward in the guise of its defenders as if to save
excessive bloodshed. By this diversion we shall penetrate to its
very bowels and be sure we shall never come out again until we
have gnawed through the entire strength of this place.
The King of the Jews will be the real Pope of the Universe,
the patriarch of an international Church.
But, in the meantime, while we are re-educating youth in new
traditional religions and afterwards in ours, we shall not
overtly lay a finger on existing churches but we shall fight
against them by criticism calculated to produce schism.
In general, then, our contemporary press will continue to
convict State affairs, religions, incapacities of the goyim,
always using the most unprincipled expressions in order by every
means to lower their prestige in the manner which can only be
practiced by the genius of our gifted tribe.
Our kingdom will be an apologia of the divinity Vishnu, in
whom is found its personification -- in our hundred hands will
be, one in each, the springs of the machinery of social life. We
shall see everything without the aid of official police which, in
that scope of its rights which we elaborated for the use of the
goyim, hinders governments from seeing. In our programme one-
third of our subjects will keep the rest under observation from a
sense of duty, on the principle of volunteer service to the
State. It will then be no disgrace to be a spy and informer, but
a merit: unfounded denunciations, however, will be cruelly
punished that there may be no development of abuses of this
right.
Our agents will be taken from the higher as well as the
lower ranks of society, from among the administrative class who
spend their time in amusements, editors, printers and publishers,
booksellers, clerks, and salesmen, workmen, coachmen, lackeys, et
cetera. This body, having no rights and not being empowered to
take any action on their own account, and consequently a police
without any power, will only witness and report: verification of
their reports and arrests will depend upon a responsible group of
controllers of police affairs, while the actual act of arrest
will be performed by the gendarmerie and the municipal police.
Any person not denouncing anything seen or heard concerning
questions of polity will also be charged with and made
responsible for concealment, if it be proved that he is guilty of
this crime.
Just as nowadays our brethren are obliged at their own risk
to denounce to the kabal apostates of their own family or members
who have been noticed doing anything in opposition to the kabal,
so in our kingdom over all the world it will be obligatory for
all our subjects to observe the duty of service to the State in
this direction.
Such an organization will extirpate abuses of authority, of
force, of bribery, everything in fact which we by our counsel, by
our theories of the superhuman rights of man, have introduced
into the customs of the goyim... But how else were we to
procure that increase of causes predisposing to disorders in the
midst of their administration?... Among the number of those
methods one of the most important is -- agents for the
restoration of order, so placed as to have the opportunity in
their disintegrating activity of developing and displaying their
evil inclinations -- obstinate self-conceit, irresponsible
exercise of authority, and, first and foremost, venality.
