<< Of course I do not rant about them. I am not familiar with the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion", so I cannot comment on them...
So, what *are* the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion"? >> Why not look it up on the Web, as I did? Takes a few seconds to type it into a search engine. But too many people on this list would rather flap their gums than do minimal research. Try http://www.adl.org/special_reports/protocols/protocols_intro.html. The "Protocols" is a notorious anti-semitic hoax, a book in which the purported leaders of a worldwide Jewish conspiracy to take over & rule the world detail their plot. Actually, it was concocted around 1911 by Serge Nilus, an underling of the Okhrana, the secret police of the Tsar of the Russian Empire. Nilus based it on a satirical French novel of the 19th century, in which the plotters weren't even Jewish. (As if anyone smart enough to succeed with such a plot would be stupid enough to write it all down in advance...But anti-semites are themselves usually such stupid morons that this kind of inconsistency never occurs to them...) This hoax has fooled many people who should have known better. Henry Ford believed it detailed a dangerous plot and paid to distribute thousands of copies before realizing how badly he'd been taken, after which he regretted having been fooled. Of course, the anti-semites on this list (and you know who you are) will probably be all excited that they've discovered a whole new reason to hate Jews... Tom Beck
