The Nazis were very modern with their use of the media in that they used radio, posters, and used planes to transport their message. These new methods appealed to people, as they hadn’t been used a lot before this. These also appealed especially to the youth because of the modern forums that the Nazi’s techniques were taking.

Germany is a big place with a lot of people, and a radical party, like the Nazis for example, needed the backing of the majority of the people. They did their best to reach and appeal to everyone of German blood.

The Nazis had a lot of things going for them. The economy was thriving, unemployment was almost nonexistent, and everyone was happy. Holocaust time What more do people want from a government, the Nazis had it all covered. People wanted the Nazis and that’s why they were so strong. The Nazis didn’t take the power from the people. The people gave it to them.

Through the depression Hitler just did what politicians do best. He told people what they wanted to hear. If you were a farmer, you were doing a great service to your country. If you were a worker, how marvelous your part in the shaping of Germany was, and the only thing standing between you and riches was the government. To the rich he promised more riches, to the hungry food, and so on.

He convinced the un-employed people that he could help them get jobs. The Jewish people are taking your jobs, he probably would have said. How can someone hungry and unemployed not want to believe him? For them he really couldn’t make things any worse. He played to people’s desires and when you tell something they want to believe, a lot of the time they do believe it.

No one really had economic reasons for following Hitler, the American stock market had collapsed, and he couldn’t do anything about it. It just happened. People just weren’t educated enough to realize that. They had been told all their lives to follow without question, and there has never been such a blind faith than people of this time had in Hitler.

Hitler is man that you have to respect, even if you do think he is evil. His ideas have shaped the world more than anyone before him. He could have done the holocaust timeline world a great service but instead he chose evil. What is it that makes evil so attractive, I think it’s the mirage of power that is has. People want what evil has to offer they simply don’t realize that that power is unattainable.

Now Hitler, there was a bad guy. I mean the if the Nazis were jerks then Hitler was the King of the Jerks. What person has ever had so much hate for a group? I think Hitler probably even convinced himself that he was in the right, but I’m sure deep down he knew he wasn’t, I mean he wasn’t stupid. Everyone knew that his ultimate goal wasn’t to bother the Jewish people, or make them feel bad. No, he wanted them dead, and if given the power, and opportunity, then he probably would have killed them all himself. When they arrested him they had many things to look at. Would he threaten the Government through a show of military power? Maybe, he hadn’t done so as of yet, but that doesn’t mean it was beyond him if it came down to it.

There are a few things that could happen if they kept Hitler in jail. Holocaust timeline His radical friends and colleagues could rebel and try to free Hitler from prison. Also if he is jail he could continue to aid the Nazis, even from the inside of a cell, telling them it’s the Jewish people fault he is in prison. No I think the only really good solution is public execution. What’s the worst that could happen? His closest friends might rebel, but not all of them as his death would be very disheartening. I think this would have been the best avenue for the Weimar Government to take.

Things here in Germany are growing worse by the day.  The Nazi’s hate propaganda, and meaningless acts of violence are horrifying, and what’s worse, their ranks are swelling steadily by the day.

Today I witnessed a speech by a man by the name of Hitler.  It was truly horrifying.  There were thousands of people congregating and so I decided I’d go see just what was happening.  As it turns out I had stumbled in on a Nazi rally, where the man I mentioned, Hitler, was going to speak.  At first it was fairly peaceful.  Hitler spoke some on his 25-point program.

The 25-point program is something Hitler is trying to implement in Germany, basically striping foreigners and Jewish people of many of their freedoms.  Saying that no person not of German blood can be considered a member of the state.  This accordingly takes away basic necessities.  For example things like food, in times of famine will not be given to foreigners or Jewish people.

After Hitler had finished this he grew a little more passionate when he got on the topic of the war.  He said it was a disgrace to Germany, and pinned the blame for the loss on the non-patriotic nature of the Jewish people.  He said had they fought along side of the Germans instead of aiding the enemy victory would have been inevitable.  I later asked around and no one could think of any Jewish people who had aided the enemy, the people I asked said they just knew the Jewish people did.

The roar of the mass of people grew almost deafening when Hitler began to scream about how the Jewish people hated the Germans and how they were all plotting behind the backs of the people of Germany.  He called on the people to try to “convince” the Jewish people to aid the land that they were being “allowed” to live in by any means necessary holocaust dates.  Everyone was yelling and screaming, chanting Hitler’s name over and over.  I felt quite fortunate to escape with my life.

Things in Germany grow worse by the day and if I had the money I would return home immediately.  I fear soon there will be complete chaos and they will sweep through the towns killing anyone not of “true German blood” that they can find.  This frightens me immensely.

In Love,
