Excerpt from A Slanderer: Notes on the History of the Period Preceding the World War

The Accuser has chosen as sponsor a Swiss living in Lausanne, Dr. Anton Suter, who has the impudence to take upon himself the responsibility for the publication of this libel, and to commend it as an act which can turn out to be nothing but a blessing to the German people and to mankind. This Mr. Suter was clearly incapable of seeing through the misstatements and the downright falsehoods which the accuser tries to foist on undiscriminating or hopelessly prejudiced readers.

No, the author of J'accuse is in no respect a German patriot, but a deliberate slanderer who well knows from personal experience that, of all the masks behind which slander conceals its true features, that of the heart-broken patriot is the most effective. He very well nows that what he presents to his readers as the truth' is merely that prearranged list of accusations - garnished with poison ous Sophistries of his own manufacture - with which our enemies are trying to win over the public opinion of the world.
