▪️Max Fraekel’s impression of Hitler. He writes ✍️:

▪️“Adolf Hitler's pictures do not do justice to the uncontested leader of
the National Socialists. He looks
much younger than his forty-one
years. His athletic figure. his military bearing, his fresh complexion, his authoritative expression, which is
enhanced by his thin, pointed, aggressive mustache, give one the impression of a German officer of pre-war days in civilian clothes”

▪️Fraenkel: "Is anti-Semitism a plank
Platform of the Nazis?

🚩Hitler: “do you represent a Jewish newspaper?…. "I don't like to give interviews. I am a newspaperman myself and know how easily one's words are distorted.”

…How prophetic

▪️Fraenkel: "Is anti-Semitism a plank
Platform of the Nazis? (Continued)

🚩Hitler: “Anti-Semitism," he continued, "is not, as such, a part of our program. Our program is to purge Germany of all such elements as hinder its return to normal conditions. Germany must become a land for Germans, for free German citizens.
not for German slaves dominated by Jewish capital."

▪️Fraenkel: In the great industries, in the manufacturing and of course in the agricultural phases of Germany life Jews play a minimal part. What, then, do you mean by 'German slaves dominated by Jewish capital'?"

🚩Hitler: The Jews have infected culture and German politics with their
views. By trying to transform themselves into Germans they have turned Germans into Jews.
They influence business and politics with their inter-nationalistic ideas. The only way in which Germans who have become infected with
Judeophilia can be saved is by
labeling everything un-German Jewish”

▪️Fraenkel: "In other words, you
are making the German Jew the victim, the scapegoat of your policy”

🚩Hitler: "No," replied the Leader.

"They are a real menace."

▪️Fraenkel: "How can less than one per cent of the total population be a threat the nation? There are only about half a million Jews in this country(authors note:🤔where did 6 million come from?) of almost seventv millions," I continued.

🚩Hitler:
“However, how about the
Communists in Russia? Though their percentage in the total population is smaller than that of the Jews here they control the country."

▪️Fraenkel: What do you propose to do about this Jewish 'menace'?"

🚩Hitler: "I intend to do nothing against the Jews except carry on the educational campaign I have prosecuted during the last few years.

-But whatever the National-Socialist Party will do to carry out its political program it will do in a constitutional way. German life must be purged of all foreign elements that distort the true German spirit.

-The government must be in the hands of Germans intent upon but one goal: to liberate Germany from its present slavery. This can be done by instilling into Germans their lost self-re-spect and their faith in their own abilities.”

▪️Fraenkel: "Are you serious when you advocate the wholesale expulsion of Jews from Germany?"

🚩Hitler: "I do want to get rid of"-he used the word loswerden-"those Jews who since the War have invaded our country from Eastern Europe and undermined our morale by mad speculation, who are devoid of all patriotism and have made fortunes out of our national catastrophe…

…As for the rest,
I merely want to limit their influence by passing legal prohibitions against their participation in the Government and by eliminating from publie life such non-Jews as act as puppets for Jewish capital."

🧵9/12🪡

▪️Fraenkel: "Can you name any such 'puppets'?"

🚩Hitler: "I would call the entire Bruening Cabinet a Jewish cabinet. I qualify the Stressemann foreign policy a Jewish policy.
I designate the Berlin police department as Jewish. The humiliating surrender of German interests to our former enemies is due entirely to Jewish influence."

🧵10/12🪡

▪️Fraenkel: "Do you, then, consider pacifism a Jewish quality or defect specifically?"

🚩Hitler: "I am a pacifist myself," was the surprising rejoinder of the man who seven years ago tried to capture the governmental reins of Bavarie by means of a military putsch. "By, pa-eifism I" — he stressed the "f" in dramatic fashion — "understand the maintenance of peace as long as one's national honor is unsoiled.
The Jewish view of peace, because of the international Jewish mind, means the surrender of all pride for the sake of financial interests?"

▪️Fraenkel: How do you reconcile all this?"

🚩Hitler: "1 do not have to go into details. My views are known. I am the only German leader who is not fraid to speak out.

-I am concerned with the Jews only in so far as they obstruct the realization of the ideal German Reich.

-But I will countenance no mob action, even against Jews. I never did. We have been made the scapegoat for the undisciplined mob action of the Communists. Jews have nothing to fear from us as long as thy do not mix with us and This they must learn-and I think they are learning very fast since the last elections.

-As long as the Jews here will not try to pose as Germans and have the temerity to speak for Germans they will be un-molested.
That is all I have to say on the subject.”
