Netanyahu Retracts Assertion That Palestinian Inspired Holocaust

[Yupster]

4. I'm just finishing a biography of Goebbels

At 900 pages, it's taken me forever.

Anyway, it's based on his diaries and it is just chock full of surprises.

Did anyone know Hitler was a good bowler? I didn't.

Anyway, as Gauleiter of Berlin, Goebbels was constantly bugging Hitler to let him remove the 70,000 Jews living there.He lamented that it kept getting delayed, and then went on forever.

I was surprised how much Goebbels talked of Hitler telling him that after the war the Jews would be removed to Madagascar which would have a German governor. He liked the idea for another reason that the climate would make it difficult for the Jews to thrive there.

I had heard the Madagascar stuff before and always just assumed it was a joke or just a one time snide comment, but Hitler talked about it for years, really until Barbarosa where all the sudden the numbers became overwhelming.

Anyway, a very good book, just clock full of stuff I didn't know and I was a history teacher.
