The writer of these articles has had to take constant counsel of
prudence in his selection of material, for the Jews have always counted
confidently on the fact that if the whole truth were told in one
comprehensive utterance, no one would believe it. Thus, bigots and minds
bursting with the discoveries they have made, have never been feared by
the Jews. They counted on the incapacity of the non-Jews to believe or
receive certain knowledge. They know that facts are not accepted on
proof, but only on understanding. Non-Jews cannot understand why human
beings should lend themselves to certain courses. They are, however,
beginning to understand, and the proof is therefore becoming more
significant.
There are yet more important revelations to be made, always following
closely the best Jewish sources, and when these revelations are made, it
will be impossible for the Jewish leaders to keep silent or to deny. The
time is coming for American Jewry to slough off the leadership which has
led it and left it in the bog. Leadership knows that. Indeed, it is
amazing to discover the number of indications that the attempts made to
suppress THE DEARBORN INDEPENDENT have been made principally _to prevent
the Jews reading it_. The leaders do not care how many non-Jews read
these articles; but they do not desire their own people to read them.
The Jewish leaders do not desire their people’s eyes to be opened.
Why? Because, just now, only Jews can truly know whether the statements
made in these articles are true or not. Non-Jews may know here and
there, as their observations may confirm the printed statements. But
informed Jews really _know_. And large numbers of the masses of the Jews
really know. When they see the truth in all its relationships in these
articles, the hitherto “led” Jew may not be so tractable. Hence the
effort to keep the non-Jewish point of view away from him.
In support of the statements that these articles have been based on
Jewish authority, we quote today a series of declarations by one of the
most able of the presidents of the B’nai B’rith, Leo N. Levi. Mr. Levi
was American-born and died in 1904. He was a lawyer of distinction and
attained the presidency of the international Jewish order, B’nai B’rith,
in 1900. He took part in the international politics of his people and is
credited with collaborating with Secretary of State John Hay on several
important matters. The utterances here quoted were for the most made
while he was president of B’nai B’rith, but all of them were published
the year after his death under B’nai B’rith auspices. There is therefore
no question of their Jewishness.
