There Might Be Some Truth Behind the Protocols
And yes, it was a Jewish conspiracy because the conspirators were (yes, they are no more) Jewish by blood. However, they were not mythical “Elders of Zion” … and they were as much enemies of the Jewish people as of any other nation.
This conspiracy was born thousands of years ago – after God made Jews their chosen people and thus provided them with enormous spiritual power in our world. And converted their chieftain – Abraham – to monotheism.
Biblical account in Genesis 22: 1-2 is straightforward:
“God called to him, “Abraham!” And Abraham said, “Here am I.” God said, “Take your son, your only-begotten son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering upon one of the mountains of which I shall tell you”
To properly understand this passage and the whole story of “burnt offering” of Isaac (thankfully, it never took place), you must understand that the Old Testament is NOT a history textbook.
In reality, it is a book of historical (and religious) fiction based on true stories. In other words, a collection of fictionalized (often heavily fictionalized) true stories. Which means that in order to extract truth from these stories, you need to use scientific approach of history, psychology, theology, etc.
The sad truth is that at the time Abraham was a pagan. A polytheist who worshipped a whole pantheon of gods… including Baal (Moloch). One really horrible dogma of cult of Baal/Moloch was that at the time of crisis the chieftain of the tribe (in this case, Abraham) had to sacrifice his firstborn child (not necessarily male) to Moloch. By burning him alive (hence “burnt offering”).
Abraham was talking to a different god – Jehovah (the chief god of the tribe that he belonged to). Those days it was normal for such a god to command the chieftain of the tribe to perform a human sacrifice to a somewhat higher god (Baal/Moloch) … and for the chieftain to oblige. Hence, Abraham offered no resistance.
Abraham prepared the sacrifice according to “Baal/Moloch Rite” (Genesis 22: 9-10)
“When they came to the place of which God had told him, Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, upon the wood. Then Abraham put forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son”
Author(s) of Old Testament for obvious reasons (not to inflict severe psychological trauma on women and children who would listen to public readings of Torah in the synagogues) deliberately softened the narrative. The “Baal/Moloch Rite” required the child to be burned alive during the ceremony of human sacrifice.
But then something very, very unexpected happened (Genesis 22: 11-13):
“But the angel of the LORD called to him from heaven, and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” And Abraham said, “Here am I.” Angel said, “Do not lay your hand on the lad or do anything to him; for now, I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only-begotten son, from me.”
And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram, caught in a thicket by his horns; and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son”
And that was the end of human sacrifice in Abraham’s tribe – which immediately made him and his tribe different from every nation in the land who continued to perform human sacrifice for centuries (until Romans and other progressors did away with this genuinely diabolical practice).
Then Jehovah (via His angel) made a solemn promise (Genesis 22:17-18)
“I will indeed bless you, and I will multiply your descendants as the stars of heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore… and by your descendants shall all the nations of the earth bless themselves”
In practice, it meant that the descendants of Abraham (i.e., Jews) will become a conduit of Divine Grace for the whole mankind – and thus genuine saviors of the latter (which makes anti-Semites very, very wrong). However, to make it happen, God had to make them ones – and take care of a genuinely existential problem.
The problem of the Church of Moloch.
On the surface, Old Testament is mostly the history of a millennia-long struggle (practically, a religious war) between Jewish monotheists (who worshipped Jehovah) and Jewish pagans – who worshipped a whole pantheon of gods.
Reality, however, was much worse – it was a religious war between monotheists and devil-worshippers; between those who worshipped God and those who (often unconsciously, but it did not matter) worshipped Devil.
After God converted Abraham to monotheism, the latter converted his whole tribe… or so it seemed. Because some of his tribesmen only pretended to convert to monotheism – in reality they continued to worship Baal. Moloch. The Devil.
And ultimately created the secret Church of Moloch (that’s the way I called it – I have no idea how it was called – it appears to be defunct for decades). Religious organization that became the curse of Jewish people for millennia.
Another sad truth is that blood libel – the antisemitic belief that Jews murder Christians (mostly Christian children) in order to use their blood in the performance of religious rituals is (hopefully, was) partially true.
It is a sad truth that a very, very small number of individuals of Jewish blood have been performing human sacrifice – murdering Christian children (rarely adults) for religious reasons.
However, they were not Jews by religion; they were not members of Jewish communities or the Jewish nation… in fact, they were the sworn, existential enemies of all of the above – as well as of the whole mankind.
They were the members of secret (underground) Church of Moloch that had been in existence for millennia – till mid-1940’s, most likely. It never had more than a few dozen members worldwide (a hundred or so at most) – and some of these members did perform human sacrifice for Baal. Moloch. The Devil.
But their ambitions went far, far further. They wanted to either convert Jews back to the cult of Baal/Moloch (in that they failed miserably, thank God) or highjack Jewish religion (the jury is still out on this one – although they most likely failed as well) to use God’s Chosen People for exactly the opposite purpose.
Take control of the whole world – and deliver it to their master the Devil. To transform our planet into a genuine Hell on Earth.
The only realistic motive for creating the infamous Protocols of the Elders of Zion – an obvious fake – was to inform the world about the existence of a group of individuals (Jewish by blood but hostile to the Jewish people and to the Jewish faith) hell-bent – literally – on taking over the whole world.
Pyotr Rachkovsky – head of Russian imperial foreign intelligence – somehow learned about their existence of their plans but did not have enough evidence to write an official report. Hence, he decided to use this… unconventional way to inform the world about this existential threat.
So, there might be some truth behind the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
