"Our opposition is only to ideas, false ideas, which are sapping the moral stamina of the people. These ideas proceed from easily identified sources, they are promulgated by easily discoverable methods and they are controlled by mere exposure.
"Let the American people once understand that it is not natural degeneracy but calculated subversion that afflicts us, and they are safe."
--Henry Ford, Sr., about his articles in The Dearborn
Independent in his book "My Life and Work" in 1922Henry Ford, Sr., published in the periodical The Dearborn Independent, published by the Ford Motor
Company between May 22 and October 2, 1920. Read it with a free mind and analyze the content carefully. We
publish it purely as it carries important background information.
In 1925, the weekly reached a peak circulation of seven hundred thousand. Ford discontinued it in 1927, under threat of a Jewish- sponsored consumer boycott. Nevertheless, he continued to espouse the same views in private.Quote from article in Dearborn Independent on the Rothschilds and organized Jewry:
"There is no question whatever of International Jewish Finance being deeply concerned in the matter of war and revolution - this is never denied as to the past; it is just as true of the present. The league against Napoleon, for example, was Jewish. Its headquarters were in Holland. When Napoleon invaded Holland, the headquarters were moved to Frankfort on-the-Main. It is remarkable how many of the International Jewish Financiers have
come out of Frankfurt - the Rothschilds, the Schiffs, the Speyers, to name but a few. Jewish influence in German affairs came strongly to the front during the 1914-1918 war. It came with all the directness and attack of a flying wedge, as if previously prepared.""... Jewish power became paramount in the [Communist] Revolution which followed the war. The Revolution would not have come if they had not brought it. The principal Jewish influences which brought down German order may be named under three heads: (a) the spirit of Bolshevism which masqueraded under the name of
German Socialism; (b) Jewish ownership and control of the Press; (c) Jewish control of the food supply and the industrial machinery of the country. There was a fourth, "higher up," but these worked upon the German people directly. . . .
Parties are but tools for the Jewish plan to power. The so-called 'dictatorship of the proletariat' is really and practically the dictatorship of the [Jewish ideologists]."
"The 1914-1918 war [WW1] brought about a condition which threw a new light on the internationalism of Jewish finance. . . . This was the significance of the great swarming of Jews at the Versailles Peace Conference."
"But a strange fatality seems to follow all forms of Jewish supremacy. Just as the capstone is ready to be placed on the edifice of Jewish triumphs, something occurs and the structure shrinks [i.e., it backfires]. It occurs so often in Jewish history that the Jews themselves have been exercised to find an explanation. . . . the explanation is given that 'after every war the Jew becomes the scapegoat' - a curious admission which would lead a less self-centered people to inquire, why?"
"We don't need the League of Nations [United Nations] to end war. Put under control the fifty most wealthy Jewish financiers, who produce wars for their own profit, and wars will cease."
--Henry Ford, Sr., Daily Mail, September 21, 1923"The only statement I care to make about the Protocols is that they fit in with what is going on... They have fitted the world situation up to this time. They fit it now."
--Henry Ford, Sr. in the New York World, about the Protocols
of the Learned Elders of Zion, February 17th, 1921
Apology from "Henry" (his personnel director) to
Mr. Livingston after threats of boycott, 1942Here are Mr. Bennett's own words:
"I got in touch with Arthur Brisbane, and through him learned that the American Jewish Committee could settle the matter. I entered into negotiations with Samuel Untermeyer and Louis Marshall of that organization, and with Brisbane. They drew up the now-famous 'apology,' which was to be the basis for a settlement. In this formal statement, it was said that Mr. Ford would see to it that no more anti-Semitic material circulated in his name and that he would call in all undistributed copies of 'The International Jew,' which were booklet reprints of the (Dearborn) Independent's articles. For the rest, the 'apology' said that Mr. Ford had had no knowledge of what had been published in the Dearborn Independent, and was 'shocked' and 'mortified' to learn about it.
"Arthur Brisbane brought this statement to me at 1710 Broadway. I phoned Mr. Ford. I told him an 'apology' had been drawn up, and added 'It's pretty bad, Mr. Ford.' I tried to read it to him over the phone, but he stopped me.
"So I [Bennett] signed Mr. Ford's signature to the document. I had always been able to sign his name as realistically as he could himself. I sent the statement to Untermeyer and Marshall. The signature was verified, and the case was closed."
(Mr. Bennett's story appeared in abbreviated form in True Magazine, page 125 of that magazine for October, 1951)
More on Samuel Untermyer (an admirer of Disraeli)...
"For the Jews are the [wicked] aristocrats of the world. From time immemorial they have been persecuted and have seen their persecutors come and go. They alone have survived. And so will history repeat itself, but that furnishes no reason why we should permit this reversion of a once great nation to the Dark Ages..."
(Samuel Untermyer, The New York Times, Monday, August 7, 1933)
Harry Bennett, personnel director for Henry Ford (who afterwards was cowed and wrote a pro-Jewish screed) described to Elizabeth Dilling, an American-Russian anti-Communist and writer, how some Jews had driven Ford off the road in his car in an effort to kill him and how his wife had plead with him to cease his Jewish exposures and live for her sake. For this reason he retracted. (Ford gave Elizabeth Dilling $5,000 in April or May of 1939.)
Mr. Ford had been convinced of the "Jewish responsibility" for World War I by two Jews on his Peace Ship (see Elizabeth Dilling's "Red network"). This was covered in an interview in the "Jewish World", Jan. 5, 1922. He determined to make the truth known to his fellow Americans when he returned to this country, he said.
