The very persons who were instrumental in spreading the
"protocols" in Russia in 1905 seemed to have realized that the false
accusations which they contained were too transparent and too clumsy to
deceive even the most credulous, and so they were discarded.
But suddenly, after the armistice, a new edition of the Nilus book
containing the "protocols," dated 1917, made its appearance as suitable
to the chaotic conditions that prevailed in Russia and during the past
two years, as has been shown, it was reproduced in various countries.
This time the antisemitic propagandists are trying to connect the
"protocols" directly with Theodore Herzl and the Zionist movement. The
war, the peace treaty and bolshevism are characterized as the
fulfillment of these "protocols" which they say had been devised no less
than 929 years before the birth of Christ, by Solomon and other Sages.
The present "protocols" have been elaborated from the
"Retcliffe-Goedsche" versions by the Russian secret police department
and the Black Hundreds who ascribed all the evils in the world to the
Jews.
The Black Hundred writer, G. Butmi, whose book "Enemies of the Human
Race," containing the fabricated speech by a "famous Rabbi" side by side
with the "protocols," gives several characteristic passages in his
introduction that will convey to the reader a clear conception of the
type of men who have stood behind the movement to discredit the Jews
through the so-called "protocols.
