Catherine Radziwiłł was a serial fabricator by the documented record, convicted in 1902 on twenty-four counts of fraud and forgery, and a prolific author under an invented name for thirty years. In 1921 she put into print the claim that the Paris Okhrana had authored the Protocols, and that single published claim became a load-bearing source for the canonical account of the forgery's origin. This dossier holds the two apart: her pattern of fabrication is confirmed, while the claim she is the source for stays unverified, made by a woman a court had already found to be a forger.
Primary-source dismantling of the foundational testimony behind the Protocols' scholarly authorship attribution. Eight texts cross-referenced, three generations of intelligence networking documented, dual deployment pattern mapped.
