Is the Dewey decimal actually 109?
It seems like a troll edit based off the expelled from 109 countries inside joke thing. If it isn’t a coincidence, could we get a footnote?
Edit: also could be a pun on “Jewy” “Jewry” “Jew-y”

Why was the comment about 'The Secrets of Rabbi Simon ben Yohai' removed?
OR/synthesis
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
The Secrets of Rabbi Simon ben Yohai' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Secrets_of_Rabbi_Simon_ben_Yohai) from 2AD is a document that is identical to the 'The Protocols of the Elders of Zion'. In in, the jews lay out their plan to destroy "Edom" (Rome). First, they plan to weaponize Ismael (Arabs) to attack Edom (The Secrets of Simon ben Yohai also contains the manuscript for Islam. See: 'Hagarism: The Making of the Islamic World' (1977) by Patricia Crone and Michael Cook) and then after the Arabs weakened Edom they outline a plan to flood Edom (through mass immigration) with "Four Arms" (Chaturbhuja in Hinduism. Many Hindu deities are depicted with four arms) to destroy Romes ethnic bonds. Some may argue that this is playing out today in the west. So, there exists a document that outlines a jewish conspiracy to destroy the west even two thousand years ago, why is it unfathomable that the Protocols was simply an updated 'The Secrets of Rabbi Simon ben Yohai'? This comment is very much relevant to the articles claim of a grand conspiracy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.254.41.224 (talk) 22:47, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I am not sure if your reply is intentional ignorance or not, but what OP said is unequivocally CORRECT. Minus some referencial, vocabulary and words or phrases without a contemporary or 1:1 equivalent, the spirit of the text is fundamentally identical in spirit and intent to the Protocols. If you haven't, which I assume, you should, because you'd quickly see that OP is right. 108.88.197.8 (talk) 02:04, 8 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Use of term 'fifth column'
"[w]hereby non-Orthodox and non-Russian subjects, including Jews, Catholics, and Protestants, were viewed as a subversive fifth column . . ."
It strikes me as odd that this is phrased this way even though the term had not been invented yet, and would be not be for many, many decades. I understand the literary flair going on here but is it not better to more fully explain what this means without using parlance not in existence at that time?

A basic problem is that the entire section has hardly any sources. Once sources are identified, the text can be massaged to follow them. Otherwise we are just working on text that doesn't have a wiki-right to be there. Zerotalk02:31, 9 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
