When once the solidarity of the Gentile society is broken up--and the
name, "Gentile society" is perfectly correct, for human society is
overwhelmingly Gentile--then this solid wedge of another idea which is
not at all affected by the prevailing confusion can make its way
unsuspectedly to the place of control. It is well enough known that a
body of 20 trained police or soldiers can accomplish more than a
disordered mob of a thousand persons. So the minority initiated into the
plan can do more with a nation or a world broken into a thousand
antagonistic parties, than any of the parties could do. "Divide and
rule" is the motto of the Protocols.
The division of society is perfectly easy, according to the estimate of
human nature made in these documents. It is human nature to take
promises for acts. No one who considered the list of dreams and vagaries
and theories that have swayed the people through the centuries can doubt
this. The more utopian, the more butterfly-like the theory, the more it
commands public adherence. Just as the Protocols say, Gentile society
does not scrutinize the origin or the consequences of the theories it
adopts. When a theory makes its appeal to the mind, the tendency is to
believe that the mind which receives it always had it in essence, and
therefore the experience has all the glow of original discovery.
In this manner, theory after theory has been exploited among the masses,
theory after theory has been found to be impracticable and has been
discarded, but the result is precisely that which the program of the
Protocols aims for--with the discarding of each theory, society is a
little more broken than it was before. It is a little more helpless
before its exploiters. It is a little more confused as to where to look
for leadership. As a consequence society falls an easy victim again to a
theory which promises it the good it seeks, and the failure of this
theory leaves it still more broken. There is no longer any such thing as
public opinion. Distrust and division are everywhere. And in the midst
of the confusion everyone is dimly aware that there is a higher group
that is not divided at all, but is getting exactly what it wants by
means of the confusion that obtains all around. It will be shown, as
claimed by the Protocols, that most of the disruptive theories abroad in
the world today are of Jewish origin; it will also be shown that the one
solid unbroken group in the world today, the group that knows where it
wants to go and is going there regardless of the condition of society,
is the Jewish group.
