Joseph Goebbels' Diaries: "...the greater the number of Jews
liquidated, the more consolidated will the situation in
Europe be after this war."
Joseph Goebbels,
March 6, 1942
"The procedure is a pretty barbaric one and not
to be described here more definitely. Not much will remain of the Jews.
On the whole it can be said that about 60 per cent of them will
have to be liquidated whereas only about 40 per cent can be
used for forced labor."
Joseph Goebbels,
March 27, 1942
"Short shrift is made of the Jews in all eastern
occupied areas. Tens of thousands of them are
liquidated."
Joseph Goebbels,
April 29, 1942
"There is no explicit reference ... to
liquidation of Jews."
"Revisionist" David Irving, April 22, 1988, as
quoted*
on the web site of the "revisionist" Ernst Zündel
The following are excerpts from Lochner, Louis, Ed., trans.,
The Goebbels Diaries, Doubleday & Company, New York, 1948.
These excerpts concern Joseph Goebbels' mentions of the fate of the
Jews. Other topics are omitted, including the numerous mentions of
Jewish conspiracies, Jewish character, and various people being Jewish,
Jew-like, or influenced by Jews.
It should be noted that this book covers only the portions of
Goebbels' diaries which were available at the time.
Lochner's comments in the text are rendered here the same way as in
the book, namely, [bracketed and smaller].
No elisions or changes of any kind have been made in the text.
Where ellipses do rarely occur, they are Lochner's. To help ensure
context, quotes are begun and ended with Lochner's paragraph breaks.
