The Track of the Jew through the Ages

        their flag on the staggering walls. And in what a way: itself
        unproductive, after Islam had hanged all the "ringleaders", it forced
        all powers violently into its service, into the most bitter slavery. On
        that Frobenius says: "The Romans reached their height in colonial
        undertakings through giving the subjugated peoples forced labour
        in the sense ofwork opportunities. The Roman only collected taxes,
        but the Arab stole all the capital, the entire 'self of a person'".
               That was once the result, fanaticism (in the middle of the
        19 th  century), the second entered at the end of the 19  th  century, when
        an Arab wave, this time coming from the east, poured over the whole
        of Sudan, subjugated all the peoples living there engaged in
        agriculture, literally turned the land into a desert and, themselves
        living in silk tents, transformed them into cruel man-eaters.
               This power of the Semitic energy and Semitic fanaticism
        that has not been viewed in its entire scope is also at home in the
        Jewish idea, the idea of the holy Jewish race, compared to which all
        the others are impure, and of the Jewish faith, compared to which
        all the others are heathen.
               This short digression should shake the naive thought that
        the Jewish idea is an insignificant matter, indeed as if it were not
        even present. Their conquest is a "peaceful" one, that is, previously
        existing disputes should be aggravated, reconciliation should be
        thwarted in order to finally hoist on the staggering walls the "historic
        hope"  - the world-rule of the Jewish empire, the empire of the
        Messiah.

                           The Jewish world-rule

               To be sure many peoples have emerged as conquerors, many
        personalities have risen to be rulers. This striving for power is not
        at all to be condemned unconditionally, and often even a moral
        necessity; ancient Rome, for example, saw itself in the midst of a
        mixture ofpeoples; in order to protect his family, his state, the Roman
        had to surround himselfwith a solid bulwark. He carried laws, order
        and customs into the conquered lands, and only when new tribes
        swamped Rome, when Syrians, Africans, degenerate soldier
