"The Protocols of the Elders of Zion" read like a nickel-novel. Facile, amateurish and hokey are some discriptives . But.
Opening today at the Holocaust Museum in Wash. D.C. is an exhibition called "A Dangerous Lie: The Protocols of the Elders of Zion". The backround of the book is laid out. It points to what the elders of the museum believe or would have us believe are the parts of literary history that the Protocols could have been engineered from. The museum directors are doing their own sort of reverse engineering to try to prove their point. But that still begs the the question, " Do the Protocols accurately describe historical and modern -day Jews ?"
The Protocols were published in 1905. They have endured because there is some truth in its content. Specifically, there is and has been a Zionist movement. Whether that Zionist movement involves individual Jews living a double-life or double-agent type of existence is for the most part overdone. But the existence of a common goal for a mutual benefit is really proven by the many, many Jewish/Israeli political acxtion committees and benevolent societies that include some with a sharp offensive attitude of reverse discrimination.
The Jews would dispel some of the justified criticism if they would stop playing the race card and cashing in on the Holocaust so shamelessly.
