Chapter 51

During World War I, the Jews in the rear were either engaging in profiteering or promoting Marxist red riots, inciting the German army on the front lines not to be sacrificial lambs, not to be cannon fodder, but deserters, undermining the fighting spirit of the German army. Many Jews also intentionally contracted venereal diseases to avoid military service and fighting on the front lines. Apart from causing trouble and profiteering in the rear, harming the German laboring people of Germanic descent, scheming against Germanic capitalists, undermining the German military, and contributing to the failure of the German army, they didn't do anything else beneficial or worthwhile.

'These Jews are so desperate, wicked, venomous, and possessed by the devil that for 1400 years, they have been our malaria, our plague, and all our misfortune, and still are... First, set fire to their Jewish synagogues and schools, bury everything that cannot be burned so that not a single brick remains. We should do this in the name of our Lord and the entire Christian society, so that God sees that we are true Christians. Second, destroy and ruin their residences... Third, confiscate all their books and scriptures because in them they spread idolatry, lies, curses, and blasphemy against God...' Do you think the words above come from a mustached man? No, the author is Martin Luther.

Wilhelm climbed onto a nearby stool and sat down, picking up a cup of tea and taking a sip. "But this is also understandable. After all, due to religious and historical reasons, the fate of the Jewish people has always been in constant turmoil. To ensure their basic right to survival, they have wielded money as the most effective weapon. In times of ethnic exclusion and facing bloody anti-Semitic killings, they have repeatedly brought forth 'money.' Perhaps this is the true reason why Jews strive to earn money by any means necessary. In the eyes of some, making money is just a game or pleasure, but for them, it is a matter of survival."

The Jews have long discovered that money is the source of their entire existence. Throughout history, they have suffered countless national calamities and have been forced to wander to various corners of the world. But wherever they go, in order to survive locally, the Jews must pay exorbitant taxes and unclear levies. Almost every aspect of their daily lives is tied to the burden of taxation. They must pay taxes to pray together with those of the same religion, to marry, to give birth, and even to hold funerals for the deceased. Any hesitation on their part will be labeled as stinginess, and if they do not pay enough taxes, they will immediately be expelled and massacred.

The rulers of the countries where the Jews reside are constantly eyeing their money. The rulers build luxurious palaces, maintain the extravagant lifestyles of their nobles, display the might of the empire, and wage wars with other countries, all of which require large sums of money that the Jews can provide. Thus, a ridiculous situation arises: they disdain the greed of the Jews when it comes to making money, despise their frugality, and consequently expel them from the country. However, it doesn't take long for them to call the Jews back because, to them, the Jews are nothing more than their money bags. When they need them, they bring them back, bestowing favor upon them and trying their best to please them; when they don't need them, they cast them aside, leading to their expulsion and slaughter.

The Jews, having acquired wealth, have become the envy of many and sparked "anti-Semitic" movements in many parts of the world. Although there are many reasons for anti-Semitism, a Frenchman in the 19th century revealed the truth: "Anti-Semitism is an economic war. The Jews are well aware that they cannot afford to lose this war. Once they lose their financial dominance, it will be the time for their dispersion, expulsion, and massacre. Therefore, for the sake of their own survival, achieving success through acquiring wealth has become an unavoidable responsibility for the Jews."

Several Jews looked at each other, and Elder Bloom slightly nodded. "Your Highness is wise."

Wilhelm waved his hand. "What was I saying before? Oh, a few years ago, there were only about six to seven hundred thousand Jews in Germany. But in recent years, it has surged. Now there are about a million Jews within German borders, right? I want you all to join the military."

"I want the young Jews who become soldiers to discard all the miscellaneous rules and regulations of the Jewish religion. In the army, they will eat what the German soldiers eat and train when the Germans train, without any taboos."

Elder Bloom was shocked. "That's impossible."

Wilhelm chuckled dismissively. "You just said you belong to the progressive faction, but it seems you're not progressive enough."

"Every soldier who joins the army can own their own private land, of course, with certain restrictions. But I can guarantee private land rights protected by imperial law, with the same rights as Germanic people. They can also engage in handicrafts, and if conditions permit, they can even establish their own factories. If German factories don't hire them, I will lead the way and hire them, and if no one cooperates with the factories you establish, I will cooperate. In short, those who contribute to the empire will be accepted by the empire."

For two thousand years, Jews haven't been able to farm because in every country they were scattered to, they were considered outsiders who couldn't own land. Jews could only engage in trade, but surprisingly, they managed to survive under such wandering circumstances. Their ability to survive is truly admirable.

"If you think those ancient commandments are more important than survival, then I have nothing more to say."

"But I can tell you what will happen. You know, the situation in Germany is not optimistic at all; the people are in deep water and hot oil."

"Germany now is like a volcano about to erupt. If we don't find something to vent the people's anger, once it erupts, it will be a catastrophic energy. I can't say that the unlucky ones are Britain, France, the Soviet Union, and the United States, right? It can only be you Jews. I will redirect all the hatred onto you Jews."

"I will vigorously promote the 'stab in the back' legend and then order the restriction and deprivation of Jewish civil rights. Jews will be prohibited from being civil servants, judges, lawyers, doctors, etc. They will not be allowed to enter public entertainment venues, and people will be forbidden from purchasing goods from Jewish stores. This policy will limit the rights of Jews in many aspects of the economy, politics, and social life, reducing the social status of German Jews to 'second-class citizens'."

"This is just the first step. I will announce a new law to strip Jews of their citizenship, turning them from 'second-class citizens' to residents without the right to vote or be elected, thereby losing all the rights and legal protections they should have as citizens. Then, I will issue a new law to forcibly expel these residents, forcing them to emigrate to other countries and regions."

"How about it, Elder Bloom? Although it's not what I want, I have no choice for the sake of Germany. Perhaps, as a result of this action, England and France might develop a favorable impression of me and reduce the reparations."

"Oh, one more thing. Don't even think about leaving. Since the start of the cleansing plan yesterday, I have ordered a ban on any Jew leaving the country. Maybe you think you can buy your way out. But I have also ordered that anyone who tries to use money for such purposes will have their entire family sent to concentration camps. And there are immensely generous rewards for informants."
