Young Israelis rally again rising antisemitism around the world
Last week marked 80 years since the Wannsee Conference took place. The
minutes of that infamous historical meeting of 15 prominent Nazi
leaders, including Adolf Hitler and Heinrich Himmler, show that the
meeting was about implementing the “Final Solution” and not about
finding a solution.
Heinrich Himmler and Reinhard Heydrich at the 1942 Wannsee Conference which was led by Heydrich and where he declared that “11 million Jews will be involved in the final solution of the European Jewish question.”
By “final solution” the Nazis at Wannsee meant to say the murder of European Jews.
The decision to kill as many Jews as possible was made earlier after
attempts by Hitler’s Nazi regime to more or less force European Jews to
emigrate had largely failed.
These efforts were regulated by law, and that legislation contained all kinds of discriminatory measures against Jews.
The Nuremberg Laws of 1935, for example, stipulated that only “Aryans” could retain German citizenship.
This meant that anyone who did not meet the Nazi definition of an Aryan could be deprived of German citizenship.
As a result, German Jews became persona non grata.
