There were probably no marching orders, per se. Nor a shady cabal. Even if it's not 100% right, COC suggests a reasonable hypothesis. tl;dr It's an evolutionary strategy. Individual Jews acted in their rational self-interest or out of hatred of a system they saw as authoritarian/bigoted/restraining, and the crippled post-WW1 West gave them a receptive audience. These individual actions compounded into larger movements that benefited them all as a group.

It just so happens that sprawling urban societies filled with atomized, deracinated peoples suits middle minorities like the Jews quite well, keeps them safe from movements that lash out against minorities (especially wealthy influential ones), and allows them to nepotistically keep themselves in positions of power and influence.

This is not to say certain groups didn't collude or operate purely out of hatred or greed (e.g. Soros, Bolsheviks, post-1960s feminists, pornographers...), or that the White elite were guiltless, just that there isn't necessarily some all-encompassing conspiracy.

tl;dr read MacDonald's works. And World on Fire.

edit: clarification

edit2: In case it wasn't clear, Jews never stopped identifying as White because it would be contrary to their interest. Why out yourself when it could expose yourself to persecution? What they did do was stop operating within the West's zeitgeist and forced us to adopt theirs.

Canada, notably the West, was de facto multicultural before Trudeau pére instituted it to countervail Quebec nationalism. One downside of the global trend can be found in the emergence of “market dominant minorities” as discussed in World on Fire.

Piggybacking off of this with these three pictures: (1, 2, 3).

I just started World on Fire: How Exporting Free Market Democracy Breeds Ethnic Hatred and Global Instability, looks pretty based.

I won't argue with you about this subject, mostly due to the fact that it's currently crunch time for papers and grading.

If you have any interest for an alternative explanation, I would highly suggest Amy Chua's book on market dominant minorities, more specifically the chapter dedicated to the middle east.
