There are Russian Bolshevists in this country now, hawking about the
streets of New York the gold cigaret cases which they stole from Russian
families, and the family jewels, the wedding and birthday rings, which
they filched from Russian women. Bolshevism never got further than the
pawnshop and burglar's "fence" idea. The proof of this traffic in stolen
property is going to drive some people into hiding before long. It will
be a long, long time before America will be taking orders in Yiddish, or
American women will be giving up their jewels to "the chosen race."
However, that happens to be only the most recent acknowledgement that
has come to hand. It is significant for its confession that "Jewish
discontent" was "tending to promote" in "other countries" what it has
"so powerfully contributed to accomplish in Russia."
And with such a link between the American Hebrew, Russian Bolshevism and
the Protocols, there are still Jewish publicists with the crust to say
that only crazy people could see the connection. Only blind people will
not see it. But that is only a minor connection. This series of articles
does not rest on anything so accidental as the Jewish New Year's apology
for Bolshevism in the great Hebrew weekly of the United States.
[Issue of September 25, 1920.]
"Out of the economic chaos, the discontent of the Jew evolved organized
capital with its working instrumentality, the banking system . . . .
"One of the impressive phenomena of the impressive time is the revolt of
the Jew against the Frankenstein which his own mind conceived and his
own hand fashioned. . . .
"That achievement (Russian Bolshevik revolution--Ed.), destined to
figure in history as the over-shadowing result of the World War, was
largely the outcome of Jewish thinking, of Jewish discontent, of Jewish
effort to reconstruct . . . .
"What Jewish idealism and Jewish discontent have so powerfully
contributed to accomplish in Russia, the same historic qualities of the
Jewish mind and heart are tending to promote in other countries . . . .
"Shall America, like the Russia of the Czars, overwhelm the Jew with the
bitter and baseless reproach of being a destroyer, and thus put him in
the position of an irreconcilable enemy?
"Or shall America avail itself of Jewish genius as it avails itself of
the peculiar genius of every other race? . . . .
"That is the question for the American people to answer."
--From an article in The American Hebrew, Sept. 10, 1920.
XX.
Jewish Testimony in Favor of Bolshevism
The American people will answer that question, and their answer will be
against the disruptive genius of dissatisfied Jews.
