That the misery of nearly all nations in old and modern times has been caused by Jews monopolizing the luxury trades, contended by Dr. H. Oberlies, writing in the Westdeutscher Beobachter of Cologne, newspaper of the leader of the German Labor Front, Dr. Ley.
An allegedly “divine” order to conquer the world is supposed to have led the Jews to penetrate all nations, by means of hawkers, as other ways were barred, owing to the smallness and the unwarlike attitude of the Jewish people.
By means of hawking luxury articles, the Jews, according to Dr. Oberlies, created artificial demands, forcing certain classes of people to imitate the standard of life of wealthier classes. The money thus acquired by the hawkers was used for usury.
By monopolizing all luxury trades the Jews also became the creators of the “mode” and even supplied the mediaeval courts with mistresses. In the end, the degenerated nations were ready to receive “Jewish-liberal democracy.” This was the crowning point of the work accomplished by introducing luxury articles.
The real value of the whole article is shown by the following paragraph:
“After the Jew, at last, by his devastating work, lasting for thousands of years, had uprooted the ancient nations and states, classes and individuals, and after the face of Judaism had become the face of the ancient times, Judaim believed that it’s time for dominating the world was at hand. But the young Teutonic nations serving as Roman wa###ors, caused a sudden end to this millennium-old crazy dream of Juda.”
