Protocols of the Elders of Zion: The Definitive English Edition -- Thomas Dalton

<p>No study of the Jewish Question is complete without a detailed look at the document known as the <em>Protocols of the Elders of Zion</em>. As mysterious as it is notorious, it has been called the most influential piece of anti-Semitic literature in history-perhaps comparable in importance only to Hitler's <em>Mein Kampf</em>.

In the <em>Protocols'</em> world-to-come, there will be a Jewish Patriarch, a King of the World, who will guide all humanity on behalf of Jewish interests.

It was denounced as a "forgery" in 1922-but is it? And what does that even mean in this context?</p><p> </p><p>The <em>Protocols</em> are as compelling and troubling today as ever.
