violations that occurred.<br />
But we also feel that now is the time to move away from the irresponsible agitation on the part <strong>of</strong> socalled<br />
Jewish intellectuals living abroad. <strong>The</strong>se men, most <strong>of</strong> whom never considered themselves<br />
German nationals, but pretended to be champions for those <strong>of</strong> their own faith, abandoned them at a<br />
critical time and fled the country. <strong>The</strong>y lost, therefore, the right to speak out on German-Jewish<br />
affairs. <strong>The</strong> accusations which they are hurling from their safe hiding paces, are injurious to Germany<br />
and German-Jews; their reports are vastly exaggerated.<br />
We ask the US Embassy to forward this letter to the US without delay, and we are accepting full<br />
responsibility for its content. Since we know that a large-scale propaganda campaign is to be<br />
launched next Monday, we would appreciate it if the American public be informed <strong>of</strong> this letter by<br />
this day." - Reichsbund Judischer Frontsoldaten, e.V (Jewish Association <strong>of</strong> German ex-Servicemen)<br />
<strong>The</strong>se Jewish front-line veterans issued a further declaration: "<strong>The</strong> atrocity propaganda is lying. <strong>The</strong><br />

"In a declaration transmitted by the Jewish Telegraphers Union to the entire Jewish world press on<br />
March,17th, we have already emphatically protested against anti-German propaganda. We have<br />
objected to mendacious atrocity reports and reckless sensationalist news, and we are repeating it today<br />
in public. We oppose any attempts to misuse Jewish affairs for the political interests <strong>of</strong> other states<br />
and groups. <strong>The</strong> defence <strong>of</strong> the national rights <strong>of</strong> the Jews and the safeguarding <strong>of</strong> their economic<br />
position cannot and must not be linked with any political actions directed against Germany and the<br />
reputation <strong>of</strong> the Reich." - March 26th 1933<br />

THE PRESS: LEADING TOMMY INTO WAR<br />
"History will judge the Press generally to have been the principle cause <strong>of</strong> war.... <strong>of</strong> all Germans,<br />
believe it or not, Hitler is the most moderate as far as Danzig and the Corridor are concerned."<br />
- Prime Minister, Neville Chamberlain, 16th August 1939<br />
"I would feel confident if it were not for the British Press, or at any rate that section <strong>of</strong> it which is<br />
inspired by an intelligentsia which hates Hitler and the Nazis so much that they see red whatsoever<br />
