people... Propaganda works on the general public
from the standpoint of an idea and makes them
ripe for the victory of this idea." Adolf Hitler wrote
these words in his book Mein Kampf (1926)”

spread the ideals of
National Socialism -- among
them racism, antisemitism,
and anti-Bolshevism
4. “Here we have a
mission to accomplish”-
Joseph Goebbels.

particularly demonstrative embodiment of the Nazi
type of human being: intelligent, identified with the
people, simple, tough and unprecedented ability to
work. Like the Führer, he also comes from the real
roots layer of nationality, proof of his intimate
connection with the people and land.
