At the meeting of the Privy Council of the Netherlands, William IV asked Mari Philip, the Minister of Education and Culture, how to expand the spread of culture. Mari Philip answered them about various measures, saying that in music, philosophy, law, etc. Medicine, literature, politics, etc. are all fully implemented.

“In terms of music, we have discovered a lot of Jewish talents. We have discovered Mahler, Schoenberg, Korngold (composers), Gudo Adler (musician family), Solomon Sulzer (worshipper). Ceremony musician), Ed Hanslick (music critic), Johnson Joachim (violinist)"

"In terms of philosophy, we have discovered Jewish talents Theodore Kompetz, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Frank Hahn and Noila, members of the former Vienna School of Austria-Hungary"

“In terms of law, we have discovered Jewish talents such as J. Glaser, J. Unger (jurisprudence expert), E. Steinbach, J. Ofner (social legislator), A. Loeffler, S. Tu Kerr (Crime Expert)"

“In medicine, the Jewish talents we have discovered include Zuckerman (anatomyologist), Schenck (spare tire expert), Steinnoch (physiologist), Gruber (hygiene expert), Rand Steiner (hematologist), von Basch (pathologist), Pick (pharmacologist), Benepik (neuro-neuropathologist), Karlupps (neuro-neurology) (home), Freud and Adler (psychiatrists), Klein (ophthalmologist), Kassowitz (pediatrician), Mendel (surgery), Holban (gynecologist), Neuber Ge (medical historian).”

“In terms of literature, the talents contributed by Jews include A. Schnitzler, J. Rotter, M. Zweig, R. Bill-Hoffman, M. Herzfeld (writer), M. Seth, M. .Benedikt, T. Herzel, F. Austerlitz (editor and reporter), K. Kraus (literary critic)"

“In terms of politics, the only current Jewish people in the Netherlands include N. Birnbaum (Jewish autoethnologist), T. Herzer (Jewish-Zionist), and Eugenia Schwarzbach (educational reformer). "

From Mari Philip's mouth, vivid names were spat out one after another, and each time the Jews were put at the front. Obviously, because of the recent attention that Jews have received internationally, arrangements have been made to place Jews in the Ministry of Culture and Education. A detailed analysis at this level made everyone, including William IV, unable to help but sigh that Mari Philippe was worthy of being a political king with insight into people's hearts. This made his style of doing things and the narrative procedures before and after everyone couldn't help but sigh. All of them are unmatched. From the small to the big, you can know how capable Mari Philippe is in the political arena.

Mari Philip finally said: "Jews currently have constant relations all over the world, but only by mastering the lifeblood of the Jews can we master the power of the Jews."

In Sydney, some time ago the outspoken Dalai Lama-Bimoritz Goodman presided over the synagogue and received strong support from the Dutch religious groups. Sydney also has a gathering of Jews from all over the Netherlands, especially Sephardic Jews and Kazakh-Siddists.

These people are also regarded as Jews, and many of them tend to think of themselves as more 'Jewish'. It is an accident that Mahler converted to Catholicism. Freud resisted all religions, and even This guy also publicly stated: 'I am happy and proud to realize that I am a Jew, although I have an extremely negative attitude towards any religion'

Mari Philip said indifferently: "But don't think of the Jews as being so noble. There are indeed a lot of internal contradictions among them.

People should not forget that Jews are neither the only immigrant group nor the largest immigrant group in the Netherlands. The Netherlands has admitted more Swedes and Danes, Germans, Hungarians, Slavs, and Latin Americans than them. , but compared to the Jews, many of these latter people were at the bottom of the Dutch white social hierarchy, just behind the black- and indigenous people.

As far as anti-Semitism is currently present in many places in Europe, we should not ignore the widespread xenophobia contained in the narrow sense of anti-Semitism. Especially if these occur in Europe, can we use this to win over more people? Jews from Europe immigrated to us.

Of course, we can also create the effects of our own prejudices within the Jewish community. There is a difference between the North-South European Jews and the American Jews. The former tend to look at the Jews from America and Northern Europe in a condescending manner. Even within Germany, the Jews in Frankfurt look down on the Jews in Berlin, and the Berlin Jews in Germany despise Austria-Hungary and Vienna. Jews in Vienna despised the Jews in Warsaw, the capital of the former Kingdom of Poland, who were ruled by the Russian Empire.

But the most humble Jews are the Jews of Galicia. "

William IV: "That's a good thing. There is never truly equality in the world. If there is, it is just because it exists on the lips."

"So, when Bismarck was facing entanglements with the Jews, it was actually very easy for us to push the envelope."

Everyone here is smart, and they naturally understand that William IV is preparing to inherit Gonghuo, so that Bismarck will not be able to quickly get rid of the unfavorable public opinion of the German Empire.

There was naturally no objection to this.

On January 10, 1881, the Dutch Rabbi Goodman met with William IV in Melbourne.

When the two were asked at a public press conference how they felt about the public opinion within the German Empire that was against Bismarck's proximity to the Jews. , Rabbi Goodman was so vague in his views that one of the Dutch Catholic journalists of the Lyon Times of the Third French Republic asked Rabbi Goodman to read what she wrote about the exclusion of Jews. booklet, Goodman responded in psychoanalytic style: "Christianity also finds itself in an unsatisfactory duality."

When William IV was asked this sharp question, William IV replied calmly:

"Christians kneel before the picture of a Jewish man, but feel uneasy before the picture of a Jewish woman, because his Apostles, Feast Days and Psalms all come from Judaism. The existence of rejection of Judaism makes them Many people eliminated this contradiction. Having to worship one Jew as God, they took revenge on other Jews and regarded them as devils.

My dear lady, you will say that it was the Aryans who liberated the Jews. This is not the case. One of the results of the quiet and gradual influence of the Jewish Bible on mankind was the liberation of the Aryan race from the shackles of the Middle Ages."

William IV's answer made people look at him, and they couldn't help but admire him. Even the Dutch Jewish rabbi, who had always stayed out of the matter, was shocked by this and looked at William IV in disbelief.

He did not expect that William IV would stand up so openly and firmly to support the Jews, and would even use Catholicism as a step to pave the way for Judaism.

At this moment, he finally understood why James Rothschild, the last surviving second generation of the Rothschild family who was most respected by the Jews, and Emond Rothschild, now the third generation, had recently become the most respected members of the Rothschild family. The reason why everyone who had been at the helm of the Luo family for ten years secretly defected to the King of the Netherlands in front of him.

Based on William IV's "performance" just now, it is not a loss for the Jews to side with the Netherlands.

At this time, William IV naturally looked at the important Jewish figure next to him. After being satisfied, he continued to emphasize: "Judaism and Jews will be part of the Netherlands, so there is no discrimination in the Netherlands. Whoever did this, we have never suppressed Buddhism in the Far East. It is said that there are more than 200,000 Buddhists in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Therefore, if I support Judaism here today, it is actually me. What I would like to say to other denominations.

The Netherlands is a country that promotes talents in an eclectic way. We need talents from all over the world. As long as you come here and be loyal to the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the Netherlands here will treat you as one of their own. 'You will be Dutch when you come here'. Our slogan.

The words of William IV and Gutmann at the press conference spread widely in European and American countries the next day. Based on the report of the "European Times", their statements appeared in the reprints of various countries. .

In contrast, it is Bismarck and the development of the German situation within the German Empire, with Frankfurt as the main Jewish capital (the Frankfurt headquarters of the Rothschild family in Europe is also the first generation founder of the family) The fight between the Germans, who were the headquarters of Meyer's era) and the anti-Semites centered on Berlin's Junker aristocracy became increasingly fierce.

The first German Emperor, Wilhelm I, had to maintain a balance between two major forces.

Unfortunately, many times, William I looked helplessly at what was happening in front of him and could do nothing.

After all, the Junker nobles are not vegetarians. This is the basis for the survival of William I and Bismarck. They can see it clearly, and so can the Junker nobles and people from other countries.

On the contrary, although Jewish capital was very important to the economic development and military expenditure of the German Empire, it was still unable to compare with the stable rule that could only be maintained with the support of the Junker aristocratic forces.

On January 15, 1881, Bismarck openly supported the election of the Jewish politician Karl Lueger as mayor of the German financial city of Frankfurt. Bismarck was forced to give up the power of appointment to avoid suspicion, and William I publicly approved it. But two days later, his attitude became uncertain. It turned out to be open opposition from the Junker nobles. In the end, William I could only refuse to approve. For a time, millions of Jews in the German Empire became a target of discrimination from all walks of life in the German Empire. focus.
