The Rothschild Dynasty 27<br />

Perpetually in deep financial trouble, deeply in debt at<br />

<strong>the</strong> age of twenty and unsuccessful in getting a seat in <strong>the</strong> House<br />

of Commons, which he had tried from 1832 to 1837 to<br />

accomplish, <strong>the</strong> Rothschilds, who had been watching him since<br />

<strong>the</strong> age of ten, made him <strong>the</strong>ir "valet."<br />

In writing to his sister Sarah in 1849, Benjamin admitted<br />

as much. The year was <strong>the</strong> worst financial period in his life. He<br />

was being harried by his creditors and had to appear before an<br />

Assize Court when as he said in his letter to Sarah "Mayer<br />

Rothschild unintentionally let <strong>the</strong> cat out of <strong>the</strong> bag."<br />

Disraeli did not "raise England to <strong>the</strong> highest position" as<br />

claimed by Buckle. Instead, what he did was to prepare England<br />

for a series of disastrous wars. He frightened generations of<br />

Englishmen with his lies about a "great Russia" being a danger<br />

and a threat for Great Britain. Prime Minister Gladstone accused<br />

nobody, no matter what <strong>the</strong>ir rank, could cross <strong>the</strong> Rothschilds<br />

with impunity. Benjamin Disraeli was <strong>the</strong> man of <strong>the</strong> hour for <strong>the</strong><br />

Rothschilds; Lionel, Mayer, Anthony and <strong>the</strong>ir families, including<br />

<strong>the</strong> Montefiores. In a letter to his sister Sarah, he wrote, that after<br />

his honeymoon, <strong>the</strong>re had been a party at <strong>the</strong> home of Mrs.<br />

Montefiore and <strong>the</strong>re was "not a Christian name <strong>the</strong>re."<br />

No doubt Benjamin performed yeoman service for his<br />

mentors, providing <strong>the</strong>m with "intelligence" from his high office.<br />

It is known that it was one such "spy job" that allowed <strong>the</strong><br />

Rothschilds to float <strong>the</strong> lucrative Suez Canal loan.<br />

Described as a "coup" engineered by Disraeli, <strong>the</strong> facts<br />

are not quite that simple. Through his secret "intelligence"<br />

service, Disraeli learned that <strong>the</strong> Khedive of
