Dialogue in Hell Between Machiavelli
and Montesquieu
|
The Protocols of the Elders of Zion
|
|
Among mankind the
evil instinct is mightier than the good. Man is more drawn to evil than to
good. Fear and Force have more empire over him than reason . . . Every man
aims at domination; not one but would be an oppressor if he could; all or
almost all are ready to sacrifice the rights of others to their own
interests....
Geneva
Dialogues, p. 8.
|
It must be noted
that people with corrupt instincts are more numerous than those of noble
instinct. Therefore in governing the world the best results are obtained by
means of violence and intimidation, and not by academic discussions. Every
man aims at power; everyone would like to become a dictator if he only could
do so, and rare indeed are the men who would not be disposed to sacrifice the
welfare of others in order to attain their own personal aims.
Protocols, p.
1 ("The Britons" edition).

What arms will they
(States) employ in war against foreign enemies? Will the opposing generals
communicate their plans of campaign to one another and thus be mutually in a
position to defend themselves? Will they mutually ban night attacks, traps,
ambushes, battles with inequality of force? Of course not; such combatants
would court derision. Are you against the employment of those traps and
tricks, of all the strategy indispensable to war against the enemy within,
the revolutionary?
Geneva
Dialogues, p. 9.

... I would ask the question why is
it not immoral for a State which has two enemies, one external and one
internal, to use different means of defence against the former in that which
it would use against the latter, to attack him by night or with superior
forces?...
Protocols, p. 2.

Machiavelli: --
"You do not know the unbounded meanness of the peoples . . . . groveling
before force, pitiless towards the weak, implacable to faults, indulgent to
crimes, incapable of supporting the contradictions of a free régime, and
patient to the point of martyrdom under the violence of an audacious
despotism . . . giving themselves masters whom they pardon for deeds for the
least of which they would have beheaded twenty constitutional kings."
Geneva Dialogues,
p. 43:
|
"In their
intense meanness the Christian peoples help our independence - when kneeling
they crouch before power; when they are pitiless towards the weak; merciless
in dealing with faults, and lenient to crimes; when they refuse to recognize
the contradictions of freedom; when they are patient to the degree of
martyrdom in bearing with the violence of an audacious despotism. At the
hands of their present dictators, Premiers, and Ministers, they endure abuses
for the smallest of which they would have murdered twenty kings."
Protocols, p.
15:

"I shall
extend the tax on newspapers to books, or rather I shall introduce a stamp
duty on books having less than a certain number of pages. A book, for
example, with less than 200 or 300 pages will not rank as a book, but as a
brochure. I am sure you see the advantage of this scheme. On the one hand I
thin (je rarifie) by taxation that cloud of short books which are the mere
appendages of journalism; on the other I force those who wish to escape stamp
duty to throw themselves into long and costly compositions, which will hardly
ever be sold and scarcely read in such a form."
P 135
|
"We will tax it (the book press)
in the same manner as the newspaper Press - that is to say, by means of
Excise stamps and deposits. But on books of less than 300 pages we will place
a tax twice as heavy. Those short books we will classify as pamphlets, which
constitute the most virulent form of printed poison. These measures will also
compel writers to publish such long works that they will be little read by
the public and so chiefly on account of their high price."
The Protocols, p. 41

Like the god
Vishnu, my press will have a hundred arms, and these arms will give their
hands to all the different shades of opinion throughout the country.
— Machiavelli, Dialogues,
p. 141
|
These newspapers,
like the Indian god Vishnu, will be possessed of hundreds of hands, each of
which will be feeling the pulse of varying public opinion.
— Protocols,
p. 43

Machiavelli. --
"You must know that journalism is a sort of Freemasonry; those who live
by it are bound . . . to one another by the ties of professional discretion;
like the augurs of old, they do not lightly divulge the secret of their
oracles. They would gain nothing by betraying themselves, for they have
mostly won more less discreditable scars . . ."
Geneva Dialogues,
pp. 145, 146:
|
"Already there exists in French
journalism a system of Masonic understanding for giving counter- [p. 15]
signs. All organs of the Press are tied by mutual professional secrets to the
manner of the ancient oracles. Not one of the members will betray his
knowledge of the secret, if the secret has not been ordered to be made
public. No single publisher will have the courage to betray the secret
entrusted to him, the reason being that not one of them is admitted into the
literary world without bearing the marks of some shady act in his past
life."
Protocols, p. 44:

After covering
Italy with blood, Sulla reappeared in as a simple citizen in Rome: no one
durst touch a hair of his head.
Geneva Dialogues,
p. 159.
|
Remember at the
time when Italy was streaming with blood, she did not touch a hair of Silla's
head, and he was the man who made her blood pour out.
Protocols, p. 51.

Now I understand
the figure of the god Vishnu; you have a hundred arms like the Indian idol,
and each of your fingers touches a spring.
—
Montesquieu, Dialogues, p. 207
|
Our Government will resemble the
Hindu god Vishnu. Each of our hundred hands will hold one spring of the
social machinery of State.
— Protocols, p. 65

How are loans made?
By the issue of bonds entailing on the Government the obligation
to pay interest proportionate to the capital it has been paid. Thus, if a
loan is at 5%, the State, after 20 years, has paid out a sum equal to the
borrowed capital. When 40 years have expired it has paid double, after 60
years triple: yet it remains debtor for the entire capital sum.
—
Montesquieu, Dialogues, p. 209
|
A loan is an issue
of Government paper which entails an obligation to pay interest amounting to
a percentage of the total sum of the borrowed money. If a loan is at 5%, then
in 20 years the Government would have unnecessarily paid out a sum equal to
that of the loan in order to cover the percentage. In 40 years it
will have paid twice; and in 60 thrice that amount, but the loan will still
remain as an unpaid debt.
— Protocols,
p. 77

What restrains
those beasts of prey which they call men from attacking one another? Brute
unrestrained Force in the first stages of social life, then the Law, that is
still force regulated by forms. You have consulted all historical sources;
every where might precedes right. Political Liberty is merely a relative
idea....
|
What restrained the wild beasts of
prey which we call men? What has ruled them up to now? In the first stages of
social life they submitted to brute and blind forces, then to law, which in
reality is the same force, only masked. From this I am led to deduct that by
the law of nature right lies in might. Political freedom is not a fact but an
idea.[p. 12]
