The State Council has been, as it were, the emphatic expression
of the authority of the ruler: it will be, as the "show"
part of the Legislative Corps, what may be called the editorial
committee of the laws and decrees of the ruler.
This, then, is the programme of the new constitution. We shall
make Law, Right and Justice (1) in the guise of proposals to the
Legislative Corps, (2) by decrees of the president under the guise
of general regulations, of orders of the Senate and of resolutions
of the State Council in the guise of ministerial orders, (3) and
in case a suitable occasion should arise-in the form of a revolution
in the State.
Having established approximately the "modus agendi"
we will occupy ourselves with details of those combinations by
which we have still to complete the revolution in the course of
the machinery of State in the direction already indicated. By
these combinations I mean the freedom of the Press, the right
of association, freedom of conscience, the voting principle and
many another that must disappear for ever from the memory of man
or undergo a radical alteration the day after the promulgation
of the new constitution. It is only at that moment that we shall
be able at once to announce all our orders for afterwards, every
noticeable alteration will be dangerous for the following reasons:
if this alteration be brought in with harsh severity and in a
sense of severity and limitations, it may lead to a feeling of
despair caused by fear of new alterations in the same direction;
if, on the other hand, it be brought in in a sense of further
indulgences it will be said that we have recognised our own wrongdoing
and this will destroy the prestige of the infallibility of our
authority, or else it will be said that we have become alarmed
and are compelled to show a yielding disposition for which we
shall get no thanks because it will be supposed to be compulsory....
Both the one and the other are injurious to the prestige of the
new constitution. What we want is that from the first moment
of its promulgation, while the peoples of the world are still
stunned by the accomplished fact of the revolution, still in a
condition of terror and uncertainty, they should recognise once
for all that we are so strong, so inexpugnable, so superabundantly
filled with power that in no case shall we take any account of
them, and so far from paying any attention to their opinions or
wishes we are ready and able to crush with irresistible power
all expression or manifestation thereof at every moment and in
every place, that we have seized at once everything we wanted
and shall in no case divide our power with them.... Then in fear
and trembling they will close their eyes to everything, and be
content to await what will be the end of it all.
The goyim are a flock of sheep, and we are their wolves. And
you know what happens when the wolves get hold of the flock? .
. .
There is another reason also why they will close their eyes:
for we shall keep promising them to give back all the liberties
we have taken away as soon as we have quelled the enemies of peace
and tamed all parties....
It is not worth while to say anything about how long a time they
will be kept waiting for this return of their liberties....
For what purpose then have we invented this whole policy and
insinuated it into the minds of the goys without giving them any
chance to examine its underlying meaning? For what, indeed, if
not in order to obtain in a roundabout way what is for our scattered
tribe unattainable by the direct road? It Is this which has served
as the basis for our organisation of secret masonry which is not
known to, and aims which are not even so much as suspected by,
these GOY cattle, attracted by us into the "show" army
of Masonic lodges in order to throw dust in the eyes of their
fellows.
God has granted to us, His Chosen People, the gift of the dispersion,
and in this which appears in all eyes to be our weakness, has
come forth all our strength, which has now brought us to the threshold
of sovereignty over all the world.
There now remains not much more for us to build up upon the foundation
we have laid.
