“The ROTHCHILDs Dynasty and ISRAEL”

Was a custom in sixteenth-century Europe. That is, the Jews had to hang a special symbol around the neck or put a badge on the chest. Their houses also had special signs outside to distinguish them from ordinary houses. This discrimination was because Europeans considered Jews to be less human than ordinary Europeans. The civil rights of Jews were also less. Jews were allowed to live in special settlements
called Jew’s Lane. The monuments of one such settlement are still preserved in the Frankfurt Museum. Jewish slums were also called ghettos or foundry. These areas were surrounded by walls to separate them from the rest of the settlements. Jews were prohibited from owning houses outside of these designated areas. They could not come out of their areas even at night. They were not allowed to go out into the city on any Christian festival day, including Sundays. Then along with this discrimination, hatred against them was also spread a lot. Posters against the Jewish community were plastered on the walls of Frankfurt. In which it was propagated that Jews worshiped pigs
and used the blood of children for their religious festivals. Although there was no truth to it. They were often blamed for the city’s problems and riots were also carried out in the ghettos. So fellows, in the mid-sixteenth century, around 1560, there A Jewish family lived in one such ghetto in Frankfurt. A red shield was made outside their houses for recognition. This sign was also used to be hung around their neck. In the vernacular, red was called root. So it made the root shield. Which then changed over time to become Rothschild.
It is said that Rothschild himself adopted the name to distinguish himself from the rest. Some other Jewish houses in Europe were called the Rothschilds because of the red shields outside, but historically the families that made a name for themselves and every major event became associated with them in some way, That family is the same red shield Rothschild of Frankfurt. We will present the story of this family to you. My Curious Fellows Many theories are popular about the Rothschilds of Frankfurt. Some are true and some are just fiction. We will present to you not all but four major theories
that we think are most relevant. First, where did the Rothschilds get so much wealth? that they tried to control the world for two hundred years? Or trying to. Second, did they have a hand in the establishment of Israel? Thirdly, there are sudden storms and earthquakes in the world, there have been changes in the weather, why is the name of the Rothschilds behind them? What is the secret? And what is the evidence for this? And finally, where are the Rothschilds in a controlling position in the world economy today in 2023? Are they still controlling the world today?
So my curious fellows, five hundred years ago when the Rothschilds lived in Frankfurt, their situation was poorer than any poor family today. They were like chickens in a barn, thirty people living together in small houses. Because they were neither allowed to buy a big new house nor did they have enough money. The Rothschilds had to live in these conditions not for two or four years, but for two hundred years. Even time quietly took a big curve. And times have changed. 1712 brought a revolution in the textile industry with the steam engine and textile mills. Together they gave the world an industrial revolution. Products that used to be produced in small quantities in months were…
…now produced in hundreds of tons in weeks. From America to Europe there was always a traffic of merchant ships. European markets were particularly rich in products such as textile products, silk, carpets, tools, coal, and tea. So, a special business that Jews also did, its importance increased a lot. This was the job of money exchange. Traders who came to Europe from all over the world wanted a local currency. So the Rothschilds in Frankfurt also did this on a small scale. But in 1760, a young man came from this family who changed the fortune of the whole family by entering this business. The young man’s name was Mayer Amschel Rothschild.
Amschel Rothschild’s father, Moses Rothschild, was a money changer and silk merchant. He wanted his son Amschel not to be a businessman, but a rabbi, a Jewish Mullah. But what happened was that Moses Rothschild died when his son was only twelve years old. This moment was the turning point in the life of young Amschel Rothschild. His family urgently needed not a religious scholar, but a business supporter. So the elders of the family sent Amschel to another German city “Hanover”. Here he worked as a trainee in the banking firm of Simon Wolf Oppenheimer, a Jew. The Oppenheimer family also had business ties to the Rothschild family. Because of this, Amschel Rothschild also got a job easily and had a full opportunity to learn the business.
After working for this firm for about eight years, he probably returned to Frankfurt in 1763 and started his own business there. It started with money exchange and the sale of antiques. Here, fellows, you have to understand one thing about Frankfurt and Germany in particular. That is, Germany in the eighteenth century was not a unified nation, as it is today, but a collection of several independent states. As Nuremberg and Hamburg were also independent states. Frankfurt was the largest of these German states and, like some other states, it had city-imperialism. That is, the ruler of the city was like a king.
Getting his pleasure and intimacy meant a good deal of power. So Amschel Rothschild began to establish relations with William I, the ruler of Frankfurt. The ruler of the city loved antiques, so Amschel sent William I, a gift of some precious coins and antique items. A rapport was established and the emperor continued to procure valuable antiques. Now obviously it had become a business relationship as well. Rothschild began to profit from this. It so happened that the ruler of the city, William I, was deeply impressed by Amschel Rothschild’s business values. So empress that in 1769 Amschel was granted the status of Court jew. In Germany at that time, the term Jew-factor was used for Jews from whom the government borrowed money.
So now Amschel Rothschild also joined the same group of Jews, from whom the government of Frankfurt borrowed at interest. So the government started taking loans from them, along with business facilities. In just 30 years, by the 1790s, the Rothschilds had amassed a fortune. But the next decade proved to be a very bad one for Frankfurt and its ruler William I. However, the Rothschilds benefited greatly from this. They are such that in 1806, the French forces of Napoleon Bonaparte, the emperor of France, attacked Frankfurt. because Frankfurt stood on the side of Great Britain, the enemy of France. Now legend has it that the ruler of Frankfurt gave all his treasure to the Rothschilds before the attack and ran out of town.
Because it was not up to the ruler of this poor relatively small town to stop the powerful royal army of France. So Frankfurt became part of France, and the French flag started flying over it. During the occupation, the Napoleonic army tried hard to find the famous treasure of the ruling city, but it was not found. How can they get it? According to the legend, Amschel Rothschild dug the garden and hid it under the ground. Years passed. Then came the day in 1815 when Napoleon Bonaparte was defeated at Waterloo and captured by the Allied Powers. That is, Frankfurt also regained its independence
, and the ruling city, William I, returned. His power was also restored. Amschel was not alive at that time, but his heirs dug up the garden and honestly returned all treasure to the emperor. William I, was delighted at this honesty. He asked the Rothschilds to keep my wealth for the next twenty years and use it in business and give me only two percent interest. It was a great achievement for the Rothschild family to get this wealth at such low interest. Because by doing business with it, they built new piles of wealth.
It is also known in history that the Frankfurt government provided mercenaries to Britain against France. Therefore, Napoleon became more against Frankfurt. In return, he received huge sums of money from London. All these transactions were also allegedly handled by Amschel Rothschild. In this way, he also established trade relations with Britain. Amschel, who led his partner Rothschilds to success in the business world, died in 1812. But before his death, he settled his 5 sons in all the major trading cities of Europe. Handed over the family business to a son in Frankfurt. The second son was sent to London, the third to Paris,
the fourth to Vienna, the capital of Austria, and the fifth to Naples, Italy. All these sons invested in the banking system in their respective cities, made huge loans to European governments and made great fortunes from the interest. Families living in Vienna and London were even given the titles of lords by kings. This led to a rapid increase in both the wealth and power of the Rothschilds. But at the same time, a new series also started. That is, in the very anti-Semitic environment of Europe, a lot of interesting conspiracy theories started to be developed against the Rothschilds. For example, a very popular conspiracy theory was put forth by a French anti-Semitic journalist,
Georges Dairvaell, who wrote under the pen name of Satan. In 1846, he wrote a pamphlet that Nathan Rothschild, a businessman in London, was present at the Battle of Waterloo with the British commander, the Duke of Wellington. He had seen Napoleon Bonaparte lose with his own eyes. So Nathan Rothschild was one of those people who first got to know England’s victory because he was there. And he had seen the defeat of Napoleon. So Nathan Rothschild, seeing that England was victorious, fled the battlefield and reached the shores of France.
At that time, there was a storm in the English Channel, the small strait between Britain and France. No boat was ready to cross the sea in this season. However, Nathan paid a heavy bribe to a sailor and landed in his boat across the English Channel to the coast of England, playing with death. From here he went directly to the stock market. He did not tell anyone about Napoleon’s defeat and quickly bought as many shares of the market as he could. At that time, due to the war situation, the price of shares was very low. But a few days later, as news of England’s victory and Napoleon’s capture reached London, stock prices obviously skyrocketed.
Nathan Rothschild had bought shares at a very cheap price just a few days ago, so he was rolling in dough. He sold the shares at a profit of twenty million francs. Meaning, he had increased his wealth enormously by hiding a secret for a few days. The same immense wealth also helped the Rothschild family to control the British economy. Such that the Rothschilds bought most of the shares of the Bank of England with this wealth. So the English economy came into their hands. It was also the first major conspiracy theory in history to attach to the Rothschilds, explaining how they had acquired enormous wealth and influence in Britain. But the problem is that this story is as interesting as it is suspicious.
Because according to modern historians, Nathan Rothschild was not in Waterloo at the time of Napoleon’s defeat. Nor was there a storm in the English Channel that day. The historical record does not bear this out. Yes, it is so true that he really got the news about the victory of the English commander Duke Wellington before many people. But he didn’t make a fortune out of it. Rather, he immediately reported it to the British government. You see, this theory was so interesting, despite being wrong, that the Encyclopaedia Britannica, considered a reliable, authentic source of history, quoted the event in its eleventh edition in 1910.
Which was later removed with an apology. These and many other interesting theories are associated with the Rothschilds. Some are conspiracies, like the one you just heard, but some are literally true. Such as the theory that the Rothschilds are behind the creation of Israel. Now this is not a legend but an event. in such My Curious Fellows that Rothchilds began to openly espouse the Israeli cause in the second half of the nineteenth century, i.e. after 1850. During this period, the efforts of the Jews for an independent Israeli state had intensified. In these efforts, they also had the full support of the British Empire.
At that time the British Empire was a superpower. Mr. James, head of the Rothschilds in Paris, died in 1868. After him, his eldest son Alphonse Rothschild took over the family business and also started working for the establishment of Israel. He began providing financial support to Jewish organizations around the world. However, the most important role in Jewish settlement in Palestine was played by his younger brother Edmond Rothschild. In 1882, he financed the establishment of a ghetto called Rishon Lezion in Palestine. This settlement was established south of the coastal city of Jaffa in Palestine. Edmond James initially donated twenty-five thousand francs…. …to drill water for the settlement.

The entire early water supply system of Jewish settlements in Palestine was established through his efforts. In addition, in 1909, he helped establish the city of Tel Aviv near Rishon. Since Rishon and Tel Aviv are so close to each other, some consider them to be the same city. However, these two are separate cities as you can see on the map. Tel Aviv is the major economic center of Israel today. It is also the de facto capital of Israel because countries that do not recognize Jerusalem as the Jewish capital still have their embassies in Tel Aviv, such as Brazil, Turkey, and Chile. Well, Edmond Rothschild continued to fund the establishment of Jewish settlements in Palestine for the next several decades. He also gave great support to the establishment of Petah Tikva, another Jewish town east of Tel Aviv.
By 1933, there were 28 ghettos in Palestine funded by Edmond Rothschild. 5.6 million pounds were spent on these settlements. This is why the Jews call Edmond James ‘The Benefactor’. A main street in Tel Aviv is named Rothschild Boulevard because of Edmond Rothschild. Apart from this, several other streets are named after Rothchilds. Outside of Tel Aviv, there are many locations throughout Israel that are named as memorials to the Rothschilds. As the Israeli town of “Zikhron Ya’akov” was named “Y’akov” after Edmond’s father, James Jacob Rothschild. Jacob is called Y’akov in Hebrew and Yaqoob in Urdu and Arabic. You can call this road as Shahrah-e-Yaqoob in Urdu.
And not just here, but with the help of Edmond’s son James Rothschild, the Jews bought at least 125,000 acres of land in Palestine after the First World War. That is, apart from the ghettos that were already settled. This land was taken for commercial use, agriculture, etc. Before that, in 1901, it was probably with the financial support of the Rothschilds that the Jews offered to buy Palestine to the Ottoman Caliph Sultan Abdul Hamid II. It is well-known that the leader of the Jewish-Zionist movement, Theodor Herzl, told the Sultan that he would not only pay off all the external debts of the Ottomans, but also spread propaganda in favor of the Ottomans in Europe. In return, the Ottoman caliph simply allowed Jewish settlement in Palestine
and hand over the governance of the area to them. This offer was made twice and both times the Sultan refused. His famous words are that I won’t sell anything, not even an inch of this territory because this country does not belong to me but to all Ottomans. My people won these lands with their blood, and this is the price. That is, if someone takes it away from us now, he will be able to take it away by force. By the way, friends, let me tell you that the Ottoman Empire had become extremely weak during the reign of Sultan Abdulhamid II. Against him, the Turkish youth… …in the Ottoman Empire itself started a rebellion movement called the Young Turks.
His throne was also overthrown in 1999. This whole story we have shown you in detail in the second season of Ottoman Empire on DSJ. What then happened to the family of the last sultan? You have also seen this story in our vlog. Their links are in the description, you can watch them after this video. So after that, when the First World War started in 1914, the Jews intensified their campaign to occupy Palestine. In this struggle, many Rothschilds joined the British army and fought against the Ottoman Turks. Britain, which was already on the side of the Jewish cause, also raised a Jewish volunteer force of five battalions
called the Jewish Legion. This legion was sent to fight in Palestine. The Rothschilds became so involved with the Israeli cause that James Rothschild, one of Edmond Rothschild’s sons, joined the force as a major. In addition, another member of the Rothschild family, Anthony Gustav Rothschild, also fought against the Turks at Gallipoli on behalf of the British forces. Here he was also injured and hardly survived. Then Evelyn Rothschild, a member of the British branch of the same family, on November 17, 1917 Killed in a battle with the Turks in southern Palestine. This battle is called the Battle of Al-Mughar Ridge.
So on the one hand, the Rothschilds were fighting the Turks for Palestine, giving their lives. On the other hand, another member of the same family in London, Lionel Walter Rothschild was doing political struggle for Israel. He was a staunch Zionist, a Zionist Jew, that is an active supporter of a religious Jewish state. He was also the Vice-President of an organization called the Board of Deputies of British Jews. This organization was the oldest and most powerful Jewish organization in Britain. With the help of this organization, he campaigned in the British press in favor of the establishment of the Israeli state. Apart from this, he also lobbied hard in this regard in the British government. His efforts resulted in the most important development in history, the Balfour Declaration.
Now what was the Balfour Declaration? Its story is also very interesting. In November 1917, during the last months of the First World War, the British forces were advancing towards Jerusalem. The Turkish army was defeated. Meanwhile, on November 2, 1917, Walter Rothschild received a letter at his home address in Piccadilly, London. This letter was written by the then British Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour. In this letter, Arthur Balfour assured Walter Rothschild, and through him the Zionist group that the British government would fully support the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine. This letter was actually a secret agreement
called the Balfour Declaration after the name of Foreign Minister Arthur Balfour. What did the British government take in return for this help? This is not mentioned in the letter, but it is believed that Britain did all this to support European Jews in the World War. The story after that you know that Britain won the World War and captured Jerusalem. The Ottoman Empire ended. The territory of Palestine remained in the possession of the British under the British Mandate. But they did not create any special administrative system here. Rather, they helped Jews from all over the world to settle here.
For this reason, there was a civil war between the Arabs and the Jews. Then, after the Second World War, Britain fulfilled the Balfour Declaration and in 1948, a Jewish state came into existence under the name of Israel. Britain and the United States obviously paved the way for their support. And voted in favor of it in the UN. You can see the whole story of selling Palestinian lands and the Arab-Jewish civil war in more detail in our vlog. So even after the establishment of the Jewish state, the Rothschilds continued to support it financially. James Rothschild, who was a major in the Jewish Legion that occupied Palestine, also gave 1.25 million pounds for the establishment of the Israeli Parliament.
His wife, Dorothy Rothschild, gifted the Jewish government a building where the Israeli Supreme Court is located today. So My Curious Fellows, The Rothschilds have been at the forefront of every stage of the struggle… …for the establishment of Israel and the strengthening of the new Jewish state, from the settlement of Jews in Palestine. they have openly used their financial and political influence for Israel. Rather, they have practically fought on the battlefield and given their lives. So we can say with full certainty that the Rothschilds behind the establishment of Israel is a historical fact, it is not a conspiracy theory. In our vlog about the Rothschild family, you see about their journey from poverty to the Emirate, a conspiracy linked to Napoleon and their hand behind the establishment of Israel. Hello, my friends On March 16, 2018, In the US capital Washington DC, Trayon White, a member of the democratic party, was going to his car. He was also a member of the city government council. It was snowing in the city. Trayon White immediately videotaped the snowfall. He said that it just started snowing out of nowhere this morning. Y’all better pay attention to this climate control, this climate manipulation. All this is happening on the Rothchilds model
of controlling the climate to create natural disasters and then owning these cities. Be careful all friends. He wrote this. Trayon White posted this video on his Facebook page. This video went viral. The Democratic Party came under fire for its member making anti-Semitic comments. Why you are speaking against the Jews? Why are you spreading this conspiracy theory? After heavy criticism, Trayon White removed the video from his Facebook page
and apologized for it. “I did not know that my comments would be considered anti-Semitic,” he said. He also met some local Jewish leaders to express solidarity with the Jews. Also visited a Jewish memorial. That’s how the matter passed. Now, friends, Mr. White has apologized for his statement about the Rothschilds. But his mind was stuck on the same thing. In such a way that in 2018, he again supported another conspiracy theory against the Jews. The conspiracy was propagated by Marjorie Taylor Greene, a member of his opposition party, the Republican Party. She wrote a long post on Facebook at 2018.
The premise was that the Rothschilds had fired a laser beam from space causing a fire in the forests of California. According to her, this laser beam was seen falling by many people. In this theory, which she called her scientific research, she also claimed that the fire had only started in the area where the Rothschilds were to build a rail project. This means that the Rothschilds have reduced the value of this land by setting fire to the forest so that they can easily buy it and set up their project. Trayon White also supported this theory. But the theory was so absurd that it earned the title of “Jewish Laser Theory.”
People were laughing that there were easier ways to get land for a rail project than going into space and firing lasers, so the Rothschilds made a very expensive deal. Many cartoons, books, and articles have been written on this mad theory. On this theory of Marjorie Green, the American newspaper The New Yorker also ridiculed that now Marjorie has even claimed that a space laser has been prepared to kill Santa Claus who comes every Christmas. Obviously, this was a joke, she had not said so. But friends, it was just a satire, but let me tell you that you have heard a lot of theories about changing the weather in Pakistan and India as well. Some people believe that the Kashmir earthquakes of 2005 were actually caused by an American experiment.
Actually, behind such theories, there are half-understood stories of some scientific experiments. Projects that people unwittingly use in their conspiracy theories. There is a similar project behind the conspiracy to control the weather. Weather Central. What is ‘Weather Central’? Friends, “Weather Central” is an organization based in the US state of Wisconsin who predicts the weather. It is a private company that employs about 250 people, including 70 meteorologists. It transmits weather data to 400 TV channels in at least 21 countries. Apart from this, It has also helped in developing weather update apps
for iPhones and Android devices. In 2011, the Rothschild family bought 70 percent of the company’s shares. It became easy for conspiracy theorists to link any weather disaster or any mishap to the Rothschilds. In 2017, hurricane ‘Hurricane Harvey’ hit the coasts of the US states of Louisiana and Texas. Most of the people from the coastal areas had already been evacuated, so the number of casualties remained very low. Around 68 people were killed. Now it happened that after the storm ended, an American female YouTuber claimed that the Rothschilds are also responsible for this storm. She said that in Alaska, which is a big secret project of the US government
which releases electricity into the ocean. Due to this many whales also die. She said that whales are often found stranded on shallow beaches. all die from the same ocean currents. As proof, she said that My uncle, who served in the Airforce, he has told me all about it. I know everything. She also referred to the Weather Central Company in her theory, but did not explain why the US government, together with the Rothschilds, is electrocuting the ocean. What is the benefit of it? And why is it that only whales end up dying on beaches?
Why are other passenger ships and marine life not harmed? Obviously, all this information was nothing more than her low knowledge and gossip. But this gossip conspiracy sold well. By the way, let me tell you that the American project that this YouTuber mentioned in Alaska is called the ‘High-Frequency Active Auroral Research Program’. The program investigates how to secure the signals of… … the thousands of American space satellites orbiting in space. Based in Gakona, Alaska, this research center specializes in sunlight particles, how these particles can affect signals and how to avoid them.
Obviously, this is directly related to US security. Security is because space satellites are the world powers… …most modern means of secret messaging, the internet, and espionage. The satellite signals on our phones also come from these satellites, our entire communication system is due to them. You have seen in this part of our Great Game series how the satellites of China, America, and Russia are fighting a space war. And also try to steal signals from each other’s satellites. So this project, which was researching the security of signals, was considered as a project to release currents in the sea, and the conspiracy continued to be made.
You know research is hard work and mixing a half-understood scientific thing with already popular and gossipy stuff makes for good gossip when told. Then, if this case is somehow connected to an already-known conspiracy, it becomes the perfect conspiracy theory. And you think there’s a history to it, so that’s how this conspiracy theory works. And gossip sells as they sell it Now we move on and see if the Rothschilds are still as powerful as they once were to … …change the map of the world and establish a country like Israel? What is their power today?
My Curious Fellows The Rothschilds were among the wealthiest families in the world until the nineteenth century. They really had so much wealth that they gave huge loans to many countries including Britain and France. It was the Rothschilds who made Britain the largest stakeholder in the Suez Canal Company by giving them four million pounds. But friends, we should also remember another important lesson from history. That is, one family or one class or one country can never remain in power in the world. According to Iqbal, Sukoon mahaal hai qudrat k kaarkhanay mein! Sabaat aik taghayur ko hai zamanay mein! Only change is constant and nothing is permanent.
The same thing actually happened with the Rothschilds. The Rothschilds were bankers, but they weren’t the kind of bankers you see today. Rather, their business model was ‘Private Banking for Private Customers’. These private banks were established in the 19th century by wealthy individuals who had to deal only with governments or extremely wealthy royal families. They had to give loans. In these banks, no one could go and open their account. These banks used to belong to families who connected with wealthy people privately and gave them private proposals,
profitable business ideas… …and private services when the deal was done. Services included not only investment, but also business advice for money transfers and connecting large investors. The private banks of the Rothschilds family, as you know, were established in London, Frankfurt, Paris, Vienna and Naples, all of which they did in privacy for their clients. That is, their deals were not advertised as to whom they were doing business with… …And what are its rates?
Until the economies were open in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, this Rothschild business model made a fortune, earning enormous wealth. For two centuries they ruled the banking sector. Did thousands of billions of dollars of business. Played a role in changing the map of the world. But then, in the 20th century, economies began to open up. Now the banks started opening for the common man as well. In the early 20th century, this new business model took over the Rothschilds’ private model. This new model is called ‘joint stock banking’. In this, one family does not necessarily own a bank,
but the bank’s shares are sold in the open market. One who has more shares, he’ll be richer. A board of directors ran the bank and… … the members of the board kept changing. Then in this new banking model, any common man could go and open his account with any amount, take a loan. It was available from the government to the common man. The rate at which they were getting profit was also in front of everyone. It was printed in the newspapers that so many shares of such and such a bank were sold for so much and such and such a bank was working at such an interest rate.
Now what happened was that this banking model controlled the economic system of the world. Rothschild’s banks were in four to six cities, but the banks of this new model started opening in every major city of the world. Just in a few years, Hundreds of banks opened in every country. Rothschilds could not lead this new banking model for any reason. The result was that their clients, no matter how wealthy, But they were not richer than the open market of the whole world. So the Rothschilds remained rich, but many times richer than them, new companies, institutions, and families stood in the market. For example, in America, the JP Morgan family came to control the banking business.
The importance of the Rothschild family to the Morgans was reduced to nothing. Rothschilds, for whatever reason, could not change the business model and gradually fell far behind in the new race of competition. Another factor that undermined the Rothschilds’ market king status… …was the decline of Britain and France, while the rise of America. That’s because America wasn’t a superpower when the Rothschilds started their business in the 18th century. Britain and France were superpowers. So the Rothschilds worked closely with the governments of these two countries. They also earned good profits. But by the end of World War II, these two countries lost their former prominence on the world stage.
Their big empires also ended and thus the influence of the Rothschilds was also limited within the borders of these countries. Rather, there too it started to decrease due to the new banking system. Other European empires like the German and Austrian empires also collapsed. The Rothschilds were major financiers of both these empires. So the collapse of these empires also reduced the business empire of the Rothschilds considerably. A third reason for their downfall is that… …they did not at all predict America’s emerging global status in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. They continued to do business in America while sitting in Europe, but they did not create a family branch in New York or Washington like in London or Vienna.
In their absence, business tycoons like John Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie, JP Morgan and Henry Ford in America captured the entire market. The United States had become such a great market that in the First and Second World Wars, Britain received more loans from the United States than the Rothschilds. But even then the Rothschilds could not change their model. My curious Fellows It is for this and many other reasons that today three of Rothschild’s five European branches — Vienna, Frankfurt, and Naples have closed. Because as a result of various revolutions in Europe, Naples and Frankfurt, which were city-states, lost their independent status. Naples became part of Italy and Frankfurt became part of Germany.
It is no longer possible for the rulers of these countries to make private deals with family businesses. As a government, they have to do open deals with banks, which even today Rothschilds do not do. So first in 1863 the Naples branch was closed, then in 1901 Rothchilds also closed the Frankfurt branch. The Vienna branch was closed at the end of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The Paris branch was closed after Hitler’s occupation of France, but reopened after French independence. Today the London office of ‘Rothchild & Co’ is called ‘New Court’. The office is located on a narrow street on St. Sweden’s Lane in London.
It provides financial services to several elite families, including the British royal family. Apart from this, they also provide similar services to big companies and individuals across the world. Japanese company Mitsubishi Corporation also hired them as a broker… …in 2017 to sell its stake in an Australian coal mine. According to the website of Rothschild & Co, they have forty-two hundred financial experts who are active in forty countries of the world. That is, there they provide financial services. That means the Rothschilds are still very rich today, but they are one of the thousands of billionaires in the world. The wealth that their family earned from banking and usury in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries
was enormous, but with so many heirs today, the family has spread so much that it is no longer in one hand or one order. The family wealth is now much less after several generations of distribution. How much is less? We cannot say this with certainty because Rothschild, as you know, always keeps their own and their clients’ business information confidential. Because that is their business model. This is the situation even today. Today, the richest member of the Rothschilds is David Mayer de Rothschild,
who has a fortune of ten billion dollars. But this wealth of his is less than the 100th richest person in the world “Vicky Safra” and his family. Vicky Safra, who is of Greek origin, …has assets worth sixteen billion and seventy million dollars. That is, the richest person of the Rothschilds cannot even be included in the hundred richest people in the world. This David Rothschild is the one who lives in the American state of California and continues to work to protect the environment from the destruction of plastic. He also made a boat out of twelve thousand five hundred plastic bottles which was named Plastiki. In 2000, David Rothschild crossed the Pacific Ocean in Plastiki.
He went from the city of San Francisco in California to the port of Sydney, Australia, 15,000 kilometers away. So, guys, we are not saying that the Rothschilds are now poor. But it is certain that today they are not able to control even a single rich country. They no longer have the power to operate the world system. Now they can’t blackmail anybody. Those making up stories about them are actually people who believe conspiracy websites, whose information is not updated. Whose monopoly is in the world today? Who is running the world today? We have shown you this in detail in this video series Great Game.
There was a custom in 16th century Europe. That is, the Jews had to hang a special symbol around the neck or put a badge on the chest. Their homes also had special signs outside to distinguish them from ordinary houses. This discrimination was because Europeans considered Jews to be less human than ordinary Europeans. The civil rights of Jews were also less. Jews were allowed to live in special settlements
called Jew’s Lane. The monuments of one such settlement are still preserved in the Frankfurt Museum. Jewish slums were also called ghettos or foundry. These areas were surrounded by walls to separate them from the rest of the settlements. Jews were prohibited from owning houses outside of these designated areas. They could not come out of their areas even at night. They were not allowed to go out into the city on any Christian festival day, including Sundays. Then along with this discrimination, hatred against them was also spread a lot. Posters against the Jewish community were plastered on the walls of Frankfurt. In which it was propagated that Jews worshiped pigs
and used the blood of children for their religious festivals. Although there was no truth to it. They were often blamed for the city’s problems and riots were also carried out in the ghettos. So fellows, in the mid-sixteenth century, around 1560, there A Jewish family lived in one such ghetto in Frankfurt. A red shield was made outside their houses for recognition. This sign was also used to be hung around their neck. In the vernacular, red was called root. So it made the root shield. Which then changed over time to become Rothschild.
It is said that Rothschild himself adopted the name to distinguish himself from the rest. Some other Jewish houses in Europe were called the Rothschilds because of the red shields outside, but historically the families that made a name for themselves and every major event became associated with them in some way, That family is the same red shield Rothschild of Frankfurt. We will present the story of this family to you. My Curious Fellows Many theories are popular about the Rothschilds of Frankfurt. Some are true and some are just fiction. We will present to you not all but four major theories
that we think are most relevant. First, where did the Rothschilds get so much wealth? that they tried to control the world for two hundred years? Or trying to. Second, did they have a hand in the establishment of Israel? Thirdly, there are sudden storms and earthquakes in the world, there have been changes in the weather, why is the name of the Rothschilds behind them? What is the secret? And what is the evidence for this? And finally, where are the Rothschilds in a controlling position in the world economy today in 2023? Are they still controlling the world today?
So my curious fellows, five hundred years ago when the Rothschilds lived in Frankfurt, their situation was poorer than any poor family today. They were like chickens in a barn, thirty people living together in small houses. Because they were neither allowed to buy a big new house nor did they have enough money. The Rothschilds had to live in these conditions not for two or four years, but for two hundred years. Even time quietly took a big curve. And times have changed. 1712 brought a revolution in the textile industry with the steam engine and textile mills. Together they gave the world an industrial revolution. Products that used to be produced in small quantities in months were…
…now produced in hundreds of tons in weeks. From America to Europe there was always a traffic of merchant ships. European markets were particularly rich in products such as textile products, silk, carpets, tools, coal, and tea. So, a special business that Jews also did, its importance increased a lot. This was the job of money exchange. Traders who came to Europe from all over the world wanted a local currency. So the Rothschilds in Frankfurt also did this on a small scale. But in 1760, a young man came from this family who changed the fortune of the whole family by entering this business. The young man’s name was Mayer Amschel Rothschild.
Amschel Rothschild’s father, Moses Rothschild, was a money changer and silk merchant. He wanted his son Amschel not to be a businessman, but a rabbi, a Jewish Mullah. But what happened was that Moses Rothschild died when his son was only twelve years old. This moment was the turning point in the life of young Amschel Rothschild. His family urgently needed not a religious scholar, but a business supporter. So the elders of the family sent Amschel to another German city “Hanover”. Here he worked as a trainee in the banking firm of Simon Wolf Oppenheimer, a Jew. The Oppenheimer family also had business ties to the Rothschild family. Because of this, Amschel Rothschild also got a job easily and had a full opportunity to learn the business.
After working for this firm for about eight years, he probably returned to Frankfurt in 1763 and started his own business there. It started with money exchange and the sale of antiques. Here, fellows, you have to understand one thing about Frankfurt and Germany in particular. That is, Germany in the eighteenth century was not a unified nation, as it is today, but a collection of several independent states. As Nuremberg and Hamburg were also independent states. Frankfurt was the largest of these German states and, like some other states, it had city-imperialism. That is, the ruler of the city was like a king.
Getting his pleasure and intimacy meant a good deal of power. So Amschel Rothschild began to establish relations with William I, the ruler of Frankfurt. The ruler of the city loved antiques, so Amschel sent William I, a gift of some precious coins and antique items. A rapport was established and the emperor continued to procure valuable antiques. Now obviously it had become a business relationship as well. Rothschild began to profit from this. It so happened that the ruler of the city, William I, was deeply impressed by Amschel Rothschild’s business values. So empress that in 1769 Amschel was granted the status of Court jew. In Germany at that time, the term Jew-factor was used for Jews from whom the government borrowed money.
So now Amschel Rothschild also joined the same group of Jews, from whom the government of Frankfurt borrowed at interest. So the government started taking loans from them, along with business facilities. In just 30 years, by the 1790s, the Rothschilds had amassed a fortune. But the next decade proved to be a very bad one for Frankfurt and its ruler William I. However, the Rothschilds benefited greatly from this. They are such that in 1806, the French forces of Napoleon Bonaparte, the emperor of France, attacked Frankfurt. because Frankfurt stood on the side of Great Britain, the enemy of France. Now legend has it that the ruler of Frankfurt gave all his treasure to the Rothschilds before the attack and ran out of town.
Because it was not up to the ruler of this poor relatively small town to stop the powerful royal army of France. So Frankfurt became part of France, and the French flag started flying over it. During the occupation, the Napoleonic army tried hard to find the famous treasure of the ruling city, but it was not found. How can they get it? According to the legend, Amschel Rothschild dug the garden and hid it under the ground. Years passed. Then came the day in 1815 when Napoleon Bonaparte was defeated at Waterloo and captured by the Allied Powers. That is, Frankfurt also regained its independence
, and the ruling city, William I, returned. His power was also restored. Amschel was not alive at that time, but his heirs dug up the garden and honestly returned all treasure to the emperor. William I, was delighted at this honesty. He asked the Rothschilds to keep my wealth for the next twenty years and use it in business and give me only two percent interest. It was a great achievement for the Rothschild family to get this wealth at such low interest. Because by doing business with it, they built new piles of wealth.
It is also known in history that the Frankfurt government provided mercenaries to Britain against France. Therefore, Napoleon became more against Frankfurt. In return, he received huge sums of money from London. All these transactions were also allegedly handled by Amschel Rothschild. In this way, he also established trade relations with Britain. Amschel, who led his partner Rothschilds to success in the business world, died in 1812. But before his death, he settled his 5 sons in all the major trading cities of Europe. Handed over the family business to a son in Frankfurt. The second son was sent to London, the third to Paris,
the fourth to Vienna, the capital of Austria, and the fifth to Naples, Italy. All these sons invested in the banking system in their respective cities, made huge loans to European governments and made great fortunes from the interest. Families living in Vienna and London were even given the titles of lords by kings. This led to a rapid increase in both the wealth and power of the Rothschilds. But at the same time, a new series also started. That is, in the very anti-Semitic environment of Europe, a lot of interesting conspiracy theories started to be developed against the Rothschilds. For example, a very popular conspiracy theory was put forth by a French anti-Semitic journalist,
Georges Dairvaell, who wrote under the pen name of Satan. In 1846, he wrote a pamphlet that Nathan Rothschild, a businessman in London, was present at the Battle of Waterloo with the British commander, the Duke of Wellington. He had seen Napoleon Bonaparte lose with his own eyes. So Nathan Rothschild was one of those people who first got to know England’s victory because he was there. And he had seen the defeat of Napoleon. So Nathan Rothschild, seeing that England was victorious, fled the battlefield and reached the shores of France.
At that time, there was a storm in the English Channel, the small strait between Britain and France. No boat was ready to cross the sea in this season. However, Nathan paid a heavy bribe to a sailor and landed in his boat across the English Channel to the coast of England, playing with death. From here he went directly to the stock market. He did not tell anyone about Napoleon’s defeat and quickly bought as many shares of the market as he could. At that time, due to the war situation, the price of shares was very low. But a few days later, as news of England’s victory and Napoleon’s capture reached London, stock prices obviously skyrocketed.
Nathan Rothschild had bought shares at a very cheap price just a few days ago, so he was rolling in dough. He sold the shares at a profit of twenty million francs. Meaning, he had increased his wealth enormously by hiding a secret for a few days. The same immense wealth also helped the Rothschild family to control the British economy. Such that the Rothschilds bought most of the shares of the Bank of England with this wealth. So the English economy came into their hands. It was also the first major conspiracy theory in history to attach to the Rothschilds, explaining how they had acquired enormous wealth and influence in Britain. But the problem is that this story is as interesting as it is suspicious.
Because according to modern historians, Nathan Rothschild was not in Waterloo at the time of Napoleon’s defeat. Nor was there a storm in the English Channel that day. The historical record does not bear this out. Yes, it is so true that he really got the news about the victory of the English commander Duke Wellington before many people. But he didn’t make a fortune out of it. Rather, he immediately reported it to the British government. You see, this theory was so interesting, despite being wrong, that the Encyclopaedia Britannica, considered a reliable, authentic source of history, quoted the event in its eleventh edition in 1910.
Which was later removed with an apology. These and many other interesting theories are associated with the Rothschilds. Some are conspiracies, like the one you just heard, but some are literally true. Such as the theory that the Rothschilds are behind the creation of Israel. Now this is not a legend but an event. in such My Curious Fellows that Rothchilds began to openly espouse the Israeli cause in the second half of the nineteenth century, i.e. after 1850. During this period, the efforts of the Jews for an independent Israeli state had intensified. In these efforts, they also had the full support of the British Empire.
At that time the British Empire was a superpower. Mr. James, head of the Rothschilds in Paris, died in 1868. After him, his eldest son Alphonse Rothschild took over the family business and also started working for the establishment of Israel. He began providing financial support to Jewish organizations around the world. However, the most important role in Jewish settlement in Palestine was played by his younger brother Edmond Rothschild. In 1882, he financed the establishment of a ghetto called Rishon Lezion in Palestine. This settlement was established south of the coastal city of Jaffa in Palestine. Edmond James initially donated twenty-five thousand francs…. …to drill water for the settlement.
The entire early water supply system of Jewish settlements in Palestine was established through his efforts. In addition, in 1909, he helped establish the city of Tel Aviv near Rishon. Since Rishon and Tel Aviv are so close to each other, some consider them to be the same city. However, these two are separate cities as you can see on the map. Tel Aviv is the major economic center of Israel today. It is also the de facto capital of Israel because countries that do not recognize Jerusalem as the Jewish capital still have their embassies in Tel Aviv, such as Brazil, Turkey, and Chile. Well, Edmond Rothschild continued to fund the establishment of Jewish settlements in Palestine for the next several decades. He also gave great support to the establishment of Petah Tikva, another Jewish town east of Tel Aviv.
By 1933, there were 28 ghettos in Palestine funded by Edmond Rothschild. 5.6 million pounds were spent on these settlements. This is why the Jews call Edmond James ‘The Benefactor’. A main street in Tel Aviv is named Rothschild Boulevard because of Edmond Rothschild. Apart from this, several other streets are named after Rothchilds. Outside of Tel Aviv, there are many locations throughout Israel that are named as memorials to the Rothschilds. As the Israeli town of “Zikhron Ya’akov” was named “Y’akov” after Edmond’s father, James Jacob Rothschild. Jacob is called Y’akov in Hebrew and Yaqoob in Urdu and Arabic. You can call this road as Shahrah-e-Yaqoob in Urdu.
And not just here, but with the help of Edmond’s son James Rothschild, the Jews bought at least 125,000 acres of land in Palestine after the First World War. That is, apart from the ghettos that were already settled. This land was taken for commercial use, agriculture, etc. Before that, in 1901, it was probably with the financial support of the Rothschilds that the Jews offered to buy Palestine to the Ottoman Caliph Sultan Abdul Hamid II. It is well-known that the leader of the Jewish-Zionist movement, Theodor Herzl, told the Sultan that he would not only pay off all the external debts of the Ottomans, but also spread propaganda in favor of the Ottomans in Europe. In return, the Ottoman caliph simply allowed Jewish settlement in Palestine
and hand over the governance of the area to them. This offer was made twice and both times the Sultan refused. His famous words are that I won’t sell anything, not even an inch of this territory because this country does not belong to me but to all Ottomans. My people won these lands with their blood, and this is the price. That is, if someone takes it away from us now, he will be able to take it away by force. By the way, friends, let me tell you that the Ottoman Empire had become extremely weak during the reign of Sultan Abdulhamid II. Against him, the Turkish youth… …in the Ottoman Empire itself started a rebellion movement called the Young Turks.
His throne was also overthrown in 1999. This whole story we have shown you in detail in the second season of Ottoman Empire on DSJ. What then happened to the family of the last sultan? You have also seen this story in our vlog. Their links are in the description, you can watch them after this video. So after that, when the First World War started in 1914, the Jews intensified their campaign to occupy Palestine. In this struggle, many Rothschilds joined the British army and fought against the Ottoman Turks. Britain, which was already on the side of the Jewish cause, also raised a Jewish volunteer force of five battalions
called the Jewish Legion. This legion was sent to fight in Palestine. The Rothschilds became so involved with the Israeli cause that James Rothschild, one of Edmond Rothschild’s sons, joined the force as a major. In addition, another member of the Rothschild family, Anthony Gustav Rothschild, also fought against the Turks at Gallipoli on behalf of the British forces. Here he was also injured and hardly survived. Then Evelyn Rothschild, a member of the British branch of the same family, on November 17, 1917 Killed in a battle with the Turks in southern Palestine. This battle is called the Battle of Al-Mughar Ridge.
So on the one hand, the Rothschilds were fighting the Turks for Palestine, giving their lives. On the other hand, another member of the same family in London, Lionel Walter Rothschild was doing political struggle for Israel. He was a staunch Zionist, a Zionist Jew, that is an active supporter of a religious Jewish state. He was also the Vice-President of an organization called the Board of Deputies of British Jews. This organization was the oldest and most powerful Jewish organization in Britain. With the help of this organization, he campaigned in the British press in favor of the establishment of the Israeli state. Apart from this, he also lobbied hard in this regard in the British government. His efforts resulted in the most important development in history, the Balfour Declaration.
Now what was the Balfour Declaration? Its story is also very interesting. In November 1917, during the last months of the First World War, the British forces were advancing towards Jerusalem. The Turkish army was defeated. Meanwhile, on November 2, 1917, Walter Rothschild received a letter at his home address in Piccadilly, London. This letter was written by the then British Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour. In this letter, Arthur Balfour assured Walter Rothschild, and through him the Zionist group that the British government would fully support the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine. This letter was actually a secret agreement
called the Balfour Declaration after the name of Foreign Minister Arthur Balfour. What did the British government take in return for this help? This is not mentioned in the letter, but it is believed that Britain did all this to support European Jews in the World War. The story after that you know that Britain won the World War and captured Jerusalem. The Ottoman Empire ended. The territory of Palestine remained in the possession of the British under the British Mandate. But they did not create any special administrative system here. Rather, they helped Jews from all over the world to settle here.
For this reason, there was a civil war between the Arabs and the Jews. Then, after the Second World War, Britain fulfilled the Balfour Declaration and in 1948, a Jewish state came into existence under the name of Israel. Britain and the United States obviously paved the way for their support. And voted in favor of it in the UN. You can see the whole story of selling Palestinian lands and the Arab-Jewish civil war in more detail in our vlog. So even after the establishment of the Jewish state, the Rothschilds continued to support it financially. James Rothschild, who was a major in the Jewish Legion that occupied Palestine, also gave 1.25 million pounds for the establishment of the Israeli Parliament.
His wife, Dorothy Rothschild, gifted the Jewish government a building where the Israeli Supreme Court is located today. So My Curious Fellows, The Rothschilds have been at the forefront of every stage of the struggle… …for the establishment of Israel and the strengthening of the new Jewish state, from the settlement of Jews in Palestine. they have openly used their financial and political influence for Israel. Rather, they have practically fought on the battlefield and given their lives. So we can say with full certainty that the Rothschilds behind the establishment of Israel is a historical fact, it is not a conspiracy theory. In our vlog about the Rothschild family, you see about their journey from poverty to the Emirate, a conspiracy linked to Napoleon and their hand behind the establishment of Israel.
In the next vlog, we will discuss the theory that the Rothschilds also control the world’s weather. Why is it called that? Is this family also trying to create a world government? And also tells that the Rothschilds have become more powerful than before or the angle of their power has changed? This second vlog of ours is also a must-watch. Hello, my friends On March 16, 2018, In the US capital Washington DC, Trayon White, a member of the democratic party, was going to his car.
He was also a member of the city government council. It was snowing in the city. Trayon White immediately videotaped the snowfall. He said that it just started snowing out of nowhere this morning. Y’all better pay attention to this climate control, this climate manipulation. All this is happening on the Rothchilds model of controlling the climate to create natural disasters and then owning these cities. Be careful all friends. He wrote this.
Trayon White posted this video on his Facebook page. This video went viral. The Democratic Party came under fire for its member making anti-Semitic comments. Why you are speaking against the Jews? Why are you spreading this conspiracy theory? After heavy criticism, Trayon White removed the video from his Facebook page and apologized for it. “I did not know that my comments would be considered anti-Semitic,” he said. He also met some local Jewish leaders to express solidarity with the Jews. Also visited a Jewish memorial.
That’s how the matter passed. Now, friends, Mr. White has apologized for his statement about the Rothschilds. But his mind was stuck on the same thing. In such a way that in 2018, he again supported another conspiracy theory against the Jews. The conspiracy was propagated by Marjorie Taylor Greene, a member of his opposition party, the Republican Party. She wrote a long post on Facebook in 2018. The premise was that the Rothschilds had fired a laser beam from space causing a fire in the forests of California. According to her, this laser beam was seen falling by many people. In this theory, which she called her scientific research,
she also claimed that the fire had only started in the area where the Rothschilds were to build a rail project. This means that the Rothschilds have reduced the value of this land by setting fire to the forest so that they can easily buy it and set up their project. Trayon White also supported this theory. But the theory was so absurd that it earned the title of “Jewish Laser Theory.” People were laughing that there were easier ways to get land for a rail project than going into space and firing lasers, so the Rothschilds made a very expensive deal. Many cartoons, books, and articles have been written on this mad theory. On this theory of Marjorie Green, the American newspaper The New Yorker also ridiculed
that now Marjorie has even claimed that a space laser has been prepared to kill Santa Claus who comes every Christmas. Obviously, this was a joke, she had not said so. But friends, it was just a satire, but let me tell you that you have heard a lot of theories about changing the weather in Pakistan and India as well. Some people believe that the Kashmir earthquakes of 2005 were actually caused by an American experiment. Actually, behind such theories, there are half-understood stories of some scientific experiments. Projects that people unwittingly use in their conspiracy theories. There is a similar project behind the conspiracy to control the weather. Weather Central.
What is ‘Weather Central’? Friends, “Weather Central” is an organization based in the US state of Wisconsin who predicts the weather. It is a private company that employs about 250 people, including 70 meteorologists. It transmits weather data to 400 TV channels in at least 21 countries. Apart from this, It has also helped in developing weather update apps for iPhones and Android devices. In 2011, the Rothschild family bought 70 percent of the company’s shares. It became easy for conspiracy theorists to link any weather disaster or any mishap to the Rothschilds.
In 2017, hurricane ‘Hurricane Harvey’ hit the coasts of the US states of Louisiana and Texas. Most of the people from the coastal areas had already been evacuated, so the number of casualties remained very low. Around 68 people were killed. Now it happened that after the storm ended, an American female YouTuber claimed that the Rothschilds are also responsible for this storm. She said that in Alaska, which is a big secret project of the US government which releases electricity into the ocean. Due to this many whales also die. She said that whales are often found stranded on shallow beaches. all die from the same ocean currents.
As proof, she said that My uncle, who served in the Airforce, he has told me all about it. I know everything. She also referred to the Weather Central Company in her theory, but did not explain why the US government, together with the Rothschilds, is electrocuting the ocean. What is the benefit of it? And why is it that only whales end up dying on beaches? Why are other passenger ships and marine life not harmed? Obviously, all this information was nothing more than her low knowledge and gossip. But this gossip conspiracy sold well. By the way, let me tell you that the American project that this YouTuber mentioned in Alaska
is called the ‘High-Frequency Active Auroral Research Program’. The program investigates how to secure the signals of… … the thousands of American space satellites orbiting in space. Based in Gakona, Alaska, this research center specializes in sunlight particles, how these particles can affect signals and how to avoid them. Obviously, this is directly related to US security. Security is because space satellites are the world powers… …most modern means of secret messaging, the internet, and espionage. The satellite signals on our phones also come from these satellites,
our entire communication system is due to them. You have seen in this part of our Great Game series how the satellites of China, America, and Russia are fighting a space war. And also try to steal signals from each other’s satellites. So this project, which was researching the security of signals, was considered as a project to release currents in the sea, and the conspiracy continued to be made. You know research is hard work and mixing a half-understood scientific thing with already popular and gossipy stuff makes for good gossip when told. Then, if this case is somehow connected to an already-known conspiracy, it becomes the perfect conspiracy theory.
And you think there’s a history to it, so that’s how this conspiracy theory works. And gossip sells as they sell it Now we move on and see if the Rothschilds are still as powerful as they once were to … …change the map of the world and establish a country like Israel? What is their power today? My Curious Fellows The Rothschilds were among the wealthiest families in the world until the nineteenth century. They really had so much wealth that they gave huge loans to many countries including Britain and France. It was the Rothschilds who made Britain the largest stakeholder in the Suez Canal Company by giving them four million pounds.
But friends, we should also remember another important lesson from history. That is, one family or one class or one country can never remain in power in the world. According to Iqbal, Sukoon mahaal hai qudrat k kaarkhanay mein! Sabaat aik taghayur ko hai zamanay mein! Only change is constant and nothing is permanent. The same thing actually happened with the Rothschilds. The Rothschilds were bankers, but they weren’t the kind of bankers you see today. Rather, their business model was ‘Private Banking for Private Customers’.
These private banks were established in the 19th century by wealthy individuals who had to deal only with governments or extremely wealthy royal families. They had to give loans. In these banks, no one could go and open their account. These banks used to belong to families who connected with wealthy people privately and gave them private proposals, profitable business ideas… …and private services when the deal was done. Services included not only investment, but also business advice for money transfers and connecting large investors.
The private banks of the Rothschilds family, as you know, were established in London, Frankfurt, Paris, Vienna and Naples, all of which they did in privacy for their clients. That is, their deals were not advertised as to whom they were doing business with… …And what are its rates? Until the economies were open in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, this Rothschild business model made a fortune, earning enormous wealth. For two centuries they ruled the banking sector. Did thousands of billions of dollars of business.
Played a role in changing the map of the world. But then, in the 20th century, economies began to open up. Now the banks started opening for the common man as well. In the early 20th century, this new business model took over the Rothschilds’ private model. This new model is called ‘joint stock banking’. In this, one family does not necessarily own a bank, but the bank’s shares are sold in the open market. One who has more shares, he’ll be richer. A board of directors ran the bank and… … the members of the board kept changing.
Then in this new banking model, any common man could go and open his account with any amount, take a loan. It was available from the government to the common man. The rate at which they were getting profit was also in front of everyone. It was printed in the newspapers that so many shares of such and such a bank were sold for so much and such and such a bank was working at such an interest rate. Now what happened was that this banking model controlled the economic system of the world. Rothschild’s banks were in four to six cities, but the banks of this new model started opening in every major city of the world. Just in a few years, Hundreds of banks opened in every country.
Rothschilds could not lead this new banking model for any reason. The result was that their clients, no matter how wealthy, But they were not richer than the open market of the whole world. So the Rothschilds remained rich, but many times richer than them, new companies, institutions, and families stood in the market. For example, in America, the JP Morgan family came to control the banking business. The importance of the Rothschild family to the Morgans was reduced to nothing. Rothschilds, for whatever reason, could not change the business model and gradually fell far behind in the new race of competition. Another factor that undermined the Rothschilds’ market king status…
…was the decline of Britain and France, while the rise of America. That’s because America wasn’t a superpower when the Rothschilds started their business in the 18th century. The last 150 years of Palestine’s history are filled with tales of lonely jungles, conspiracies, intrigues, and atrocities. Until the end of the 19th century, Palestine was part of the Ottoman Empire. For the followers of the Mujahideen, that is, Muslims, Jews, and Christians, this land held a very sacred place.
Because this land of Palestine holds within itself all the historical, grievous, and ancient landmarks of those Mujahideen. According to our data from 1878 to 1887, during the Ottoman Empire, the population of Palestine was approximately 70–80 percent Muslim, 9 percent Christian, and 4 percent warrior. It is true that during that period, Jews were treated extremely badly all over the world.
But those living in the Ottoman Empire were living a life of war and they also had a strong desire for their own separate kingdom. The police began to seize the religious yeast. There was no better place for them than the police team. Sultan Abdul Hamid 2nd of the Ottoman Empire was aware of the Yogis’ intentions, so he obstructed the Yogis’ land purchases and migration to Palestine. [Music] By the turn of the twentieth century, the Ottoman Empire had become very weak. In the first war against Britain, America, Russia, France, the Ottoman Empire supported the Central Powers and Germany, France, the Hungarian Empire, and Bulgaria, among others.
To defeat the Ottomans, the Ottomans needed the support of local Arab leaders, meaning that if they rebelled, the Ottoman Empire could be dismantled. For this purpose, the British Commissioner in Egypt, Sir Henry McMahon, joined forces with Sharif of Mecca, Hussein ibn Ali al-Hashmi. From 1915 to March 1916, the transfer of milk took place. In this correspondence, the British High Commissioner, Mr. Naresh Sharif of Mecca, offered to liberate Arab areas in exchange for help against the Ottoman Empire.
Hands Free for Mecca is a name given to the Arab areas. After his birth, the Sharif of Mecca agreed to support the British in exchange for control of Palestine. Therefore, during the First Great War, the Mecca revolted against the Ottoman Empire. Meanwhile, Britain, in an attempt to gain the support of powerful Jews in Europe and America, offered them a new homeland in Palestine.
In this connection, in 1917, Member of Parliament wrote a letter to the British war leader, Lloyd Wright, in Britain’s Sacred Heart, but for the Jews. In this letter, he assured them of the possibility of a new state for the Jews on Palestinian soil. This alarm is remembered in history as the Value for Decoration. This behavior, in this way, continued to play a double game with the Arabs regarding Palestine.
Britain’s decision to give young women land on the screen was a matter of concern for Britain’s long-standing rivalry with Moradabad, so it decided to give the land of Palestine to the Turks instead of China. What was Palestine’s strategic importance? Why was the control of the Turks important for Britain, the United States, and other powers? You’ll learn more about this later in this video.
The Ottoman Empire lost many territories, including Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, and Palestine, and the territory of Palestine fell under British control. Given the current situation, this movement gained momentum. At that time, war organizations around the world were buying land in Palestine from Arabs at high prices. Migrants from around the world began settling in Palestine.
The changing demographics, like the drought, had a local X-ray, which had crippled the Arab population. Now, there are more incidents of war criminals. The results also began to emerge. From 1936 to 1948, organized rebellions against the administration’s policy of allowing young women to speak in a separate pot led to widespread unrest in Palestine. It became increasingly difficult for the administration to manage the situation in a single pot.
The actions of the perpetrators against each other created numerous problems for the British administration. Britain proposed a resolution to this issue by using the Commission’s Question Papers. In its report, the Commission proposed dividing Palestine into two parts. The Arab population strongly opposed the Commission’s proposal and was now opposed to limiting Palestine’s headland at any cost. This failed.
Following this, Britain made further efforts to bring the Arabs and Jews to a coherent state. These efforts included the Hitt Commission Report and the White Paper of 1930. Among the many other efforts worldwide, It was well known that Britain, enraged by the Palestinian issue, wanted to sell the Jews a portion of Palestine under any circumstances, citing the relationship between their population and land ownership.
On the one hand, Madhuri was vehemently opposed to any role of war in Palestine’s future and wanted to expel the Jews from Palestine. On the one hand, Britain continued to make efforts with a slight weakness, while on the other, a large number of young Jews continued to live in Palestine. After Palestine came under British control in 1918, by 1946, approximately 250,000 Jews had come from Europe and settled in Palestine.
As a result of this, the demographics of the population were significantly affected. During the 30 years of British occupation, the Jews had grown from a small minority of 6 percent to a 33 percent majority.
After the end of the Second World War, the Jews announced the establishment of a separate Jewish state of Israel on the land of Palestine in 1948. The state of Israel, established on 5,500 square miles, has greatly expanded its territory over the next five decades after fighting numerous wars with Arab nations. Despite incurring huge financial costs on these wars, Israel’s GDP continued to grow, as of 2021 at $481 billion surpassing countries such as Singapore, the UAE, Malaysia and Pakistan. Area of this Jewish state, is five times smaller than Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province (of Pakistan), and the total population is only 9.3 Million Despite its small population, Israel introduced many new businesses or start-ups every year
and made numerous new inventions Israel is today the tenth largest arms exporter, and is considered the eighth most powerful country in the world. But friends, the question arises here, how did Israel become such a powerful country despite fighting multiple wars with its much bigger neighbors, economic and diplomatic boycotts by mostly Muslim countries and severe lack of natural resources In today’s video, we will try to find out the secret of Israel’s economic and defense development and will see what policies and priorities made Israel such a powerful, influential and economically strong country Soon after the establishment of Israel, various Jewish organizations from around the world also provided financial support to Israel and raised funds for it. As symbolic reparations, West Germany paid the Israeli state $845 million between 1953 and 1966 to rehabilitate the ravages of World War II. In addition, immediately after the establishment of Israel, they started receiving financial assistance and loans on easy terms from the US government and international financial institutions.
There is no doubt that the US-Israel relationship is very strong and the US has always patronized and financially supported Israel but the secret of the development of Israel is not only US patronage or aid from various sources, but the strategy, that by making proper use of the help it received, it established a strong position in the world. Let’s take a look at this great strategy of Israel. Israel is also called the Startup Nation. A startup refers to a business that introduces a new idea or product. Thanks to Israel’s business-friendly policies, Israel currently ranks first in the world in per capita startups meaning there is currently one startup company for every 1,500 people. For a country with such a small population, launching such a large number of startups certainly seems like a strange thing. But friends there is a long planning and effort to reach this point.
In the 1990s, when the Israeli government thought that due to Israel’s small population, it would not be possible to market their big projects and start-ups in their country and implement them in the true sense to solve this problem, they introduced a brilliant government venture capital fund called yozma fund. Venture capital is a type of private equity and financing that investors provide to start-up companies and businesses that are believed to have the potential for long-term growth. Under this scheme, the Israeli government offered foreign investors that the government would invest 40 percent in any startup, if the investor was willing to invest the remaining 60 percent Moreover, if the investor wants, he can also buy the remaining 40% shares from the government in the next 5 years. For example, if a start-up of a traffic management system requires $10 million $4 million will be provided by the Israeli government, while $6 million will be provided by foreign investors
and if the company is profitable, foreigners An investor can also become the sole owner of this company by purchasing government shares worth $4 million over a period of 5 years. This government policy proved to be a game changer and many foreign investors invested heavily in Israeli startups. Between 1993 and 1996, about 250 million dollars were invested under Yozma Funds. In 2021, Israeli startups received a record $25.6 billion in venture capital funding in just one year. This puts Israel’s per capita investment at about $28,000, while in 2021, US investment per capita was only $1,000. means Israel’s per capita is 28 times that of US This is the reason why many of the world’s biggest startups such as website developer wix.com, freelancing platform Fiverr, cyber security firm Biocatch and agricultural solutions company Prospera are based in Israel Moreover, most of the Israeli start-ups were later acquired by large American companies.
As the Israeli USB maker M systems was acquired by Sandisk for $1.6 billion. Similarly, Waze, a company that introduced a real-time traffic update system, was bought by Google for $1.3 billion. In this way, numerous international companies bought thousands of Israeli start-ups related to technology, medicine, defense, agriculture and IT for billions of dollars, which became a major reason for Israel’s economic development. Another important pillar of the development of Israel is their education system In Pakistan’s education system, marks are the merit criteria and for most people, the purpose of higher education is only to get a good job. Whereas Israel’s education system focuses on developing students’ practical skills and encourages to prioritize entrepreneurship rather than employment as a source of income In our country university projects are aimed at obtaining a degree with good grades
but in Israel any project is evaluated based on its relevance to practical life. So the students there do projects on practical issues like water scarcity, traffic management, energy crisis, agriculture and irrigation, defense needs and medical issues The educational curriculum in Israel is regularly reviewed and modified according to local and international needs. Three Israeli universities are ranked among the top 50 universities in Asia, while two universities are among the top 100 universities in the world. Israel also values the research sector and spends 5.5 percent of its GDP on research and development, the highest rate in the world. Today, Israel has more than three hundred research centers of the world’s largest companies such as Apple, Intel, Facebook, Google and Amazon, and as a result, Israel is second to none in the field of research. This is the reason why Israeli scientists came up with many innovative and unique products to solve their local needs and problems,
which the whole world is now benefiting from. For example, an Israeli scientist, who suffered from severe stomach problems, invented a digestible camera. By swallowing this camera, it became possible to take pictures of parts of the stomach and intestines that were not possible before. It took him almost 20 years to make this camera or pill but today, with the help of this camera called Pillcam, it helps to diagnose various diseases of the digestive system and millions of patients around the world are benefiting from this technology. When the Jews declared a separate state in 1948, about 60 percent of the land consisted of a remote area of the Negev desert, far from the cities. Although the area was uninhabited and considered by many to be uncultivable, but Israel’s founder and first prime minister, David Ben Gurion, believed that the Negev could be transformed into fertile land, where the Jews can settle and prosper.
Therefore, after many years of hard work, in the 1960s Israeli scientists, invented a revolutionary system of farming in the desert with the help of less water, called the drip irrigation system Drip irrigation is the most efficient system of delivering water and nutrients to growing crops. Through this technology, the production can be increased up to 90% with 60% saving of water. Using this technology, today Israel has made a large area of the Negev desert arable. Netafim, the company founded by Israel, today sells its products in 110 countries around the world and this one company alone has a market share of 30 percent of the world’s drip irrigation systems With this sophisticated irrigation and irrigation system, Israel is the only country in the Arab region that now has more water than it needs, means it is water surplus and sells water to other countries. In 1969, the Israeli government also established a university in Negev desert, named the University of the Negev for research in agriculture and other fields
After the death of David Ben-Gurion in 1973, the university was officially named Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. Ben-Gurion University has played an important role in the development of the Negev desert. This university is one of the best universities in the world in the field of agriculture and water research in the desert. Interestingly, students from other Arab countries also study in this university, and not only do new research in the field of agriculture but also apply these methods and technologies in their own countries. Apart from this, Israeli food tech is playing a very important role in food security in the world. Friends, due to the rapidly growing population of the world, climate change and wars, humans may suffer from food shortages in the future. In addition, the production of meat, milk and eggs from animals is also expected to decrease drastically. Therefore, in view of future needs and potential business opportunities, Israeli companies are currently researching alternative proteins derived from plants instead of animals and food production using synthetic methods.
Cultured meat, hybrid food, cow-free milk or honey without bees, are areas of food technology in which Israeli companies are researching Cultured meat is meat made in a lab by obtaining cells without slaughtering an animal. The food prepared by this technology includes all the ingredients required by humans such as protein, vitamins, calcium and minerals etc. Many Israeli companies have had considerable success in this regard and their products are available in the market. As we mentioned in the beginning, Israel has fought many wars with its neighboring countries. Fighting a war requires a lot of weapons and financial resources. So, instead of buying arms from other countries for huge sums of money, Israel set up large-scale arms manufacturing factories in its own country. Moreover, for its survival, Israel has done immense research in armaments and defense technology and introduced the latest weapons and war technology. Because of the war and border tensions, Israel was often hit by missiles from neighboring countries so with the helpof US, Israel developed a sophisticated air defense system called Iron Dome.
Introduced in 2011, this system is undoubtedly the best air defense system in the world at the moment with an accuracy of more than 90 percent. Through this defense industry and advanced technology, Israel not only became self-sufficient for its war needs but also started exporting arms and technology to the outside world. In 2021, Israel exported $11.3 billion worth of arms to Europe, North America, China and some Arab countries. These exports include missiles, rockets, drones, and air defense systems. Israel has also built a large-scale sophisticated system to monitor and spy on movements across the border this include border fences and sensors, facial recognition surveillance cameras, facial expression reading through artificial intelligence, call recording and even control of the mobile phone’s camera and mic. One of its purposes may be border management and surveillance of Israel’s opponents,
but on the other hand it also serves a commercial purpose. Israel tests spying and surveillance techniques and equipment locally before selling them to governments around the world. This is the reason why Israel has an important position in the global cyber security ecosystem and digital surveillance and it also provides cyber security systems, spying and surveillance equipment, hacking tools and other defense services to many countries in the world. Israeli intelligence agency Mossad’s extensive spying network and state-of-the-art technology and equipment at their disposal also play an important role in their strong defense. Military training is mandatory for Jewish citizens over the age of 18 in Israel. That is, every Jewish man and woman living in Israel serves in the army for at least 2 to 3 years and is thus part of the Israeli reserve military force. Moreover, service in the army inculcates qualities like self-reliance, discipline and decision-making in every individual which help them in their practical life.
Because of all these reasons, Israel has become a strong economic and defense power today. The pace of Israel’s development, despite difficult diplomatic situations, wars, natural resources and population shortages is perhaps unparalleled. But in this development of Israel, there is definitely a lesson and guidance for other developing countries including Pakistan. By adopting the principles and priorities that Israel has adopted, any developing country, including Pakistan, can become an economically stable and powerful country like Israel.
This happened in 1967, when the USS Liberty, an American spy ship, was patrolling the ocean when Israeli forces attacked it. The US ship escaped sinking, but was severely damaged by the bombing. This was a sudden and unprovoked attack by Israel on the United States. Despite being a superpower, the US could neither confront Israel nor avenge it. What is the reason for this? Why is it that a country occupying less than half the area of Pakistan’s smallest province, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, is more powerful than many Arab countries 100 times its size? If the answer is to be summed up in one sentence, it is American patronage. But the story goes beyond this. There are also political, historical, and geographical reasons. During the Second World War, the massacre of Jews in Germany and Poland, known as the Holocaust, took place. Jews claim that 6 million of their fellow Jews perished in the Holocaust. In this situation, Bosnia and Herzegovina helped them settle in Palestine. Along with Bosnia, the United States supported Israel, and today both powers consider it their duty to protect Israel. Why do they believe this? A key reason is that the Maghreb powers believe that Israel is the only country in the Arab world that will safeguard Maghreb interests in both war and peace. They lack this confidence in Turkey, Jordan, Egypt, or even Saudi Arabia. Israel exploits this weakness of the Maghreb as a pawn in its external policy. This is why, despite widespread global condemnation, the Arab powers have been unable to harm Israel even a bit. After American aid, the greatest strength Israel receives in the world is its mastery of military technology. Furthermore, the US, Venezuela, and France prefer to provide their latest weapons to Israel. Surprisingly, those supplying arms to Israel include countries that withhold weapons from other countries for even minor violations of human rights or global laws. For example, during the 2006 Lebanon War, images of children killed by Israeli fighters went viral. Even then, the US President did not stop Israel from supplying F-16s. Instead, he tried to silence critics by saying that if the US broke its agreement to provide F-16s to Israel, no country would trust the US in the future. However, just 16 years ago, the US refused to supply F-16s to Pakistan despite receiving money from it. In 2016, the US also made a deal with Israel. Under this agreement, Israel will receive $38 billion in modern weapons over 10 years, all free of charge. Israel has a 170,000-strong army, 652 fighter jets, and over 2,600 tanks. Israel’s combat fleet includes the F-16, F-15, and fifth-generation F-35s.
The F-35’s strength is its ability to reach its target and destroy enemy targets without being detected. Israel’s active military strength is 1,770,000. While this may seem small, it also maintains a reserve army of 450,000. Furthermore, training for Israel’s entire population is essential. Israel’s population is 20 times smaller than Pakistan’s, but its defense budget is one and a half times larger. Pakistan’s defense
budget is around $9.5 billion, while Israel’s budget is $9.5 billion. In terms of the number of weapons it possesses, Pakistan has an edge over Israel. In the 2018 International Power Rankings, Israel is ranked 15th, while Pakistan is the 13th largest military power. China is third, and India is fourth.
With the help of the United States and Europe, Israel has also established a large weapons manufacturing industry. It has become the world’s eighth largest arms seller and the first major country to seize drones. Its weapons seizures have exceeded $9 billion. [Applause] Israel also manufactures combat robots, long-range night vision devices, and human-controlled drones.
Nikolai also manufactures its own motion-detecting sensors. Israel also has its own missile defense system, Iron Dome, which is capable of destroying missiles and rockets in mid-air before they reach their intended target. Israel also possesses nuclear weapons, but since it has not yet conducted a live test, it is not considered a declared nuclear power. The Israeli military is renowned for its rapid destruction of the enemy in ground combat. In the 1967 Arab-Israeli War, the Israeli Air Force destroyed over 350 Egyptian aircraft in a single day before they could take off. It also destroyed a large number of Egyptian aircraft in the entire Syrian region. Thus, Israel won the war in just six days. In this war, Israel captured Baitul Muqaddas and brought much of the Palestinian territory under its control. Israel’s territorial strength is also evident. Wealthy Jews and international organizations around the world invest in Israel. The world’s richest people, such as Jon Buffett and Bill Gates, call Israel a paradise for investors. According to the World Bank, in 2016, Israel received $1 billion in foreign investment, while its neighboring country, Egypt, received the highest investment, at just $8 billion. Thanks to its technological expertise and the support of global investors, Israel has become a major financial power in the Arab world. According to the IMF, Israel is the world’s 33rd largest economy with a GDP of $351 billion.

The history of the Rothschild dynasty and Israel resists two tempting simplifications: the claim that the Rothschilds “created” Israel, and the opposite claim that their role was marginal. The more defensible reading sits between these poles. Particular members of the family became significant financial patrons of Jewish settlement in Ottoman and Mandate Palestine, while the state that eventually emerged in 1948 was the product of a much larger convergence of forces: organized Zionist politics, entrenched European antisemitism, Ottoman imperial decline, British wartime diplomacy, mass migration, the Holocaust, and postwar great-power politics. The Rothschild banking house itself originated in the Frankfurt Judengasse in the late eighteenth century, expanding through five sons into branches across Europe’s major financial capitals (Rothschild Archive, n.d.). Read through the lens of New Historicism, the family’s actions cannot be isolated from the imperial and ideological structures surrounding them; their significance is inseparable from the institutions Ottoman land law, British foreign policy, and Zionist organization through which their capital had to pass to become political fact (Greenblatt, 1988). The Rothschild story, in other words, is most useful not as a story about one dynasty’s hidden hand, but as a case study in how private capital becomes public history.
Baron Edmond James de Rothschild is the figure most concretely tied to this history. Beginning in 1882 with his support for the settlers of Rishon LeZion, he went on to finance a network of agricultural colonies, vineyards, and industrial enterprises across Ottoman Palestine, eventually underwriting the reclamation of several hundred thousand dunams of land across roughly two dozen settlements (Rothschild Archive, n.d.). This work operated on the Ottoman legal terrain we have examined elsewhere in this project: Sultan Abdul Hamid II, wary of exactly this kind of large-scale land consolidation, refused Theodor Herzl’s proposed debt-for-charter arrangement and moved through the 1890s to restrict Zionist land purchases directly which meant Rothschild-funded settlement had to proceed piecemeal, through private transactions and local intermediaries, rather than through any formal national concession. In 1924, Edmond formalized this work by founding the Palestine Jewish Colonization Association (PICA), later merged with the earlier Jewish Colonization Association founded by Baron Maurice de Hirsch, which took over administration of land, agriculture, and settlement infrastructure (Rothschild Foundation, n.d.). Edmond’s own words, recorded in a 1923 report on the organization, frame his ambition as fundamentally collective rather than personal: his stated aim was to induce “other Jewish capitalists to take part in the work” (Jewish Telegraphic Agency, 1923). That single line captures the essential move this history keeps repeating private philanthropy converting itself into a pooled, institutional, and eventually political project. Yet a postcolonial reading complicates any purely celebratory version of this story: Palestine was not empty land awaiting development but a territory already inhabited by an Arab population whose own relationship to land and sovereignty stood in increasing tension with the settlement project Rothschild capital helped build.

The second major intersection between the family and Zionist statehood is diplomatic rather than financial. On November 2, 1917, British Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour addressed his now-famous declaration to Lord Walter Rothschild, asking him to convey it to the Zionist Federation. Its central clause that His Majesty’s Government would “view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people” was immediately qualified by a second clause insisting that nothing should prejudice the “civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine” (Balfour, 1917). The document’s own language repays close reading: “home” is a softer, more domestic term than “state,” yet it became the textual hinge on which sovereignty, territorial conflict, and displacement would eventually turn. It is worth being precise about what the Declaration was not: it was not a unilateral Rothschild initiative. Chaim Weizmann’s sustained lobbying of the British government is generally credited as decisive in securing it (National Archives and Records Administration, n.d.), and Britain’s own wartime and imperial calculations including the very different promises made separately to Arab leaders through the McMahon–Hussein correspondence shaped the decision as much as any single family’s access to power. Walter Rothschild’s role was to be the trusted address to which a much larger diplomatic negotiation was delivered, not its author.
The collapse of Ottoman authority in Palestine after the First World War, and Britain’s subsequent administration of the territory under the Mandate, expanded Jewish immigration considerably while sharpening Arab opposition. Popular retellings of this period including the video documentaries this project has drawn on throughout tend to narrate it causally and, at times, teleologically: Ottoman decline leads to British control, British control enables immigration, immigration produces demographic change, and demographic change produces partition, as though 1948 were the predetermined endpoint of a story that began in 1917 or even 1882. The historical record resists that tidiness. The Balfour Declaration promised a “national home,” not explicitly a sovereign state, and British policy oscillated for three decades under competing pressures the 1937 Peel Commission’s partition proposal, the restrictive 1939 White Paper, and sustained unrest on both sides. Edward Said’s critique of how imperial discourse represents territories and the peoples living in them is useful here: European governments debated Palestine’s future in terms that gave Palestinian Arabs little independent voice in the process shaping their own land (Said, 1978). At the same time, the urgency behind Jewish migration cannot be separated from the lived reality of European antisemitism, culminating in the Holocaust a history of persecution that gave Zionist claims to refuge a moral weight entirely independent of Rothschild patronage. The resulting conflict, in short, admits no single villain-and-victim framing; it is better understood through the metaphor of competing inheritance, in which different communities inherited memories of persecution, claims to sacred geography, and dispossession, without inheriting anything like equal political power to act on those claims.
Rothschild involvement with the Jewish state did not end at independence, but its character changed decisively from settlement-building to institutional philanthropy. Edmond’s son James oversaw the transfer of much of PICA’s land holdings to the Jewish National Fund, and later generations, operating through the Yad Hanadiv foundation chaired for decades by Jacob Rothschild, funded the construction of Israel’s Knesset, its Supreme Court building, and its National Library (Yad Hanadiv, n.d.). More recently, the family’s commercial presence has re-entered the region on entirely conventional terms: Rothschild & Co opened a Dubai wealth-management office in 2024 and has ranked among the region’s leading M&A advisory firms, growth driven by ordinary market competition rather than any special political leverage. None of Israel’s subsequent development its research-intensive economy, its agricultural innovation in the Negev, its defense industry, or its alliance with the United States can reasonably be attributed to the Rothschild family. These outcomes were produced by state policy, mass immigration, an education system built around applied research, private enterprise, and international alliance-building on a scale no single family’s capital could sustain. The recurring literary device across this whole body of source material is metonymy: “Rothschild” comes to stand in for European finance, Zionist patronage, and elite influence generally, just as “Israel” comes to stand in for military technology, entrepreneurship, and Western alliance. Such compression makes for compelling narration, but it substitutes a memorable part for an intricate whole.
The most defensible conclusion is that the Rothschild dynasty belongs to the history of Israel without being synonymous with it. Popular documentary treatments of this material the same sources analyzed throughout this project frequently gesture toward a more conspiratorial register, using suspense, rhetorical questioning, dramatic irony, and the recurring vocabulary of hidden “secrets” to invite audiences to search for one explanatory force behind enormous historical change. Such techniques make for effective storytelling, and they explain why the same family that funded real settlements has also been blamed, without evidence, for engineered wildfires and secret weather control. But the documented record and the conspiracy narrative operate in entirely different evidentiary registers, and collapsing them does a disservice to both. There is strong, archival evidence for Edmond de Rothschild’s settlement financing, for PICA’s land administration, for Walter Rothschild’s role as the Balfour Declaration’s addressee, and for a century of subsequent institutional philanthropy. There is no comparable evidence that the family secretly engineered Israel’s founding or directs world events from behind the scenes. The more accurate and, properly told, no less remarkable history is a constellation: philanthropic capital helped build early settlements; Ottoman resistance shaped how and where that capital could be spent; Zionist political organization supplied ideological mobilization; British imperial calculation supplied crucial diplomatic conditions; the trauma of persecution and the Holocaust intensified the demand for refuge and statehood; and postwar international politics finally produced the conditions of 1948. Studying the Rothschilds is valuable not because it reveals a single hidden architect of that history, but because it shows, in unusually well-documented detail, how capital, ideology, empire, migration, and memory interact to make history at all.
