EDITOR'S FOREWORD
IN an
interview published in the New York World February
17, 1921, Mr. Henry Ford put the case for the "Protocols of
Zion" tersely and convincingly. He said: "The only statement
I care to make about the Protocols is that they fit in with
what is going on. They are sixteen years old and they have
fitted the world situation up to this time. They fit it
now." He made this statement when Jewish leaders and the
Jewish Press in America were fulminating against a series of
articles printed in Ford's newspaper The Dearborn
Independent during the years 1920 to 1922. After some
years of pressure such as only organized Jewry can conceive
or inflict, Henry Ford was made to apologise to Jewry in a
letter addressed to Louis Marshall, then leader of the
American Jewish Committee, dated June 30, 1927. Ford's
apology was abject, but neither then nor since did he ever
deny the truth of the articles.
As clearly as
the "Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion" reveal a
concerted plan of action, of intention and achievement,
through centuries of world history, so the long series of
articles in The Dearborn Independent expose the
powerful concentration of forces organized by Jewish
interests and the effects of Jewish influences in the United
States from the time of the Civil War up to the uneasy years
following the first world war. The scope of the original
articles is wide, the analysis of the relentless march of
Jewish ambition and the rapid acquisition of political power
is deep and dispassionate. In their entirety they present a
most thorough exposition of the range of Jewish influences
in America over many decades; they provide adequate evidence
of the motives that inspire such phenomena and the ultimate
objective towards which Jewish policy is leading the world.
In the 29 years that have passed since the publication of
the series began, Jewish power in the United States has
developed to a degree far out-distancing even the alarming
proportions exposed at that time.
The
Jewish "National State" of which we have heard so much
deceptive talk elsewhere is already firmly established.
De jure and de facto the United States of
America can claim that title, though many American citizens
may even yet be astonished and no doubt indignant to read
the statement.
But, examine the FACTS. The Dearborn Independent
articles fitted the American scene 30 years ago, they fit it
now! The Jewish Question continues to mount the scale of
public attention all over the civilized world, attracting
ever a higher types of mind to the discussion of its
significance. It cannot be encompassed within the range of a
single volume.
This edited version seeks merely to give the gist of the
four volumes in which the famous series of articles were
printed under the title: THE INTERNATIONAL JEW. Presenting
the essential facts in easier sequence and condensed to
about one-tenth of the original wordage, many contemporary
illustrations have been eliminated, but the implications of
the Jewish Question in America and the evidence of the
impact of the Jewish Idea on the lives of ordinary American
citizens have been marshalled in a form readily assimilable
by new readers, providing a useful digest for the informed.
The way to a just solution of "the world's foremost problem"
is clearly indicated.
Truth is visible when honest men seek Her diligently. The
reader, wherever he may be, to whatever nation he may
belong, should seriously reflect upon the fact that the
conditions long-operating in the United States and the
conclusions which emerge from this investigation of the
Jewish Question in that powerful country, can, in all
probability, now be paralleled in his own land, his own
city. If he should seek confirmation -- let him look around.
