The Fuehrer has ordered: Apart from the three contingencies mentioned in the instructions of 10/21/38 preparations are also to be made to enable the Free State of Danzig to be occupied by German troops by surprise.
The preparations will be made on the following basis: Condition is a quasi-revolutionary occupation of Danzig, exploiting a politically favorable situation, not a war against Poland. . . .
The troops to be employed for this purpose must not simultaneously be earmarked for the occupation of the Memelland, so that both operations can, if necessary, take place simultaneously. The Navy will support the Armys operation by attack from the sea . . . The plans of the branches of the armed forces are to be submitted by January 10, 1939.
Though Beck had just warned that an attempt by Germany to take Danzig would lead inevitably to conflict, Hitler now convinced himself that it could be done without a war. Local Nazis controlled Danzig and they took their orders, as had the Sudeteners, from Berlin. It would not be difficult to stir up a quasi-revolutionary situation there.

Geez. Robert Reich isn’t even yet a part of the Obamanation and he is already wreaking havoc.
The headlines just made me think that when all are not equal before the law, something bad will happen.
All are not equal before the law now..................
The German Firearms Act of 1937 stated "No civilian is to have a firearm without a permit and permits shall not be issued to persons suspected of acting against the state. For Jews, this permission will not be granted. Those people who do not require permission to carry weapons include the whole of the SS, and the SA - including the Deaths Head group, and the officers of the Hitler youth." [35]
Interesting and informative reading. I love history because we can learn so much from it. Thanks.
At least the President-Elect doesn't discriminate. He believes that no private citizen is entitled to own a firearm.
[speaking of 1933]:
"Hitler began to degrade European Jews just as Roosevelt began to bring Jews more fully into the American government. Hitler ousted Jews from political office as Roosevelt brought them in. Some German Jews were imprisoned. Jewish businesses were boycotted and Jewish protests were unavailing.
"By 1935 Jews were no longer German citizens. Marriage between Germans and Jews was forbidden. They were excluded from the professions and many businesses.
"Hitler sought to drive Jews out of Germany and stir up antisemitism around the world by dumping impoverished Jews all over the globe. Half of Germany's Jews left the country between 1933 and 1939."
[I think it is higher than 50% for Germany itself, but 50% may be the overall, including Austrian Jews annexed in 1938]
"Hitler's Schutzstaffel (SS or Protection Squad) even helped train a few Jews to acquire skills they would need to immigrate to Palestine! The Ha'avarah ("transfer") Agreement of 1933 allowed 41,000 Jews to immigrate to Palestine so long as they left their property in Germany. The British cooperated with Jewish immigration to Palestine during much of the 1930s.
"But German Jews did not want to go to Palestine.
"The Nazis wanted the Jews to emigrate, but then began to impede their emigration by confiscating their assets. Jews could leave Germany with 35% of their capital in 1936, 10 percent in 1938, and by June 1938, nothing."
...In 1933 and later we were simple-hearted and naïve. When so-called public opinion in the world lost control of itself because our "barbaric ways" prevented the Jews from abusing our wives and daughters, then we took it very seriously, and tried to explain the Jewish Question to the others from the beginning what holy simplicity! As though one of these waterproof democrats ever had the least interest in it!
What is the real position? Neither Mr. Roosevelt, nor an English Archbishop, nor any other prominent diploma-democrat would put his dear daughter in the bed of a greasy Eastern European Jew; only, when it is a question of Germany, they suddenly know nothing of any Jewish question, only of the "persecution of innocents because of their religion," as though we had ever been interested in anything a Jew believes or doesnt believe.
The real situation and truth is that these diploma-democrats know the Jewish Question very well, in fact one need only look at their immigration regulations and their fear of Jewish immigrants and even derive practical conclusions from them, but pretend to be stupid and ignorant when they think they can harm Germany by this means.
Well then, that might still have surprised us a couple of years ago. Today we react to their screeching as to a continuous noise that is not capable of becoming any louder. It is known that the human ear can hear sounds only up to a certain level of vibration. Sounds and noises of still higher frequencies are not heard. We have become immune to any increase in the great screaming of world Jewry.
Simple people derive an unshakable wisdom from this....
There is a view that is heard at every step: if we had solved the Jewish Question completely and by the most brutal methods back in 1933, the outcry would have been no worse than it has been all the time since then, because we are solving the Jewish Question piecemeal, by single measures forced on us by the Jews themselves and their friends. This view is correct in itself. But it had to remain theoretical because at that time we lacked the military might that we possess today. At that time the Jews might have succeeded in inciting the nations into a war of revenge against us; today the loudest of the democratic screechers will be the ones to hesitate the longest.
Because it is necessary, because we no longer hear the worlds screaming, and finally because no power in the world can stop us, we shall therefore now take the Jewish Question towards its final solution. The program is clear.
It is:
total elimination, complete separation! (Bolding is mine).
What does that mean?
It means not only the elimination of the Jews from the German national economy, a position which they brought upon themselves following their murderous attack and their incitement to war and murder.
It means much more!
It can no longer be asked of any German that he should continue to live under one roof with Jews, a race stamped with the mark of murderers and criminals, and deadly enemies of the German people.
The Jews must therefore be driven out of our apartment houses and residential areas and put into series of streets or blocks of houses where they will be together and have as little contact as possible with Germans. They must be marked and the right must be taken from them to own houses or land or a share in either, because it cannot be expected of a German that he should submit to the power of a Jewish landlord and maintain him by the work of his hands.
Into a criminal existence
But once this nation of parasites is in every way dependent on itself and isolated, it will become impoverished because it is unwilling and incapable of doing work itself. Even if the Jews still call billions their own today, and even if there are still many hundreds of millionaires among them, and even if the individual so-called "poor" Jew has disguised and hidden enough, they will still very soon have eaten up their capital, once the vital artery of these parasites has been blocked.
And if we force the rich Jews to support the "poor" comrades of their race, which may prove necessary, they will still all sink down into a criminal existence, in accordance with their deepest blood-conditioned nature.
But let nobody believe that we will calmly watch such a development. The German People has not the least wish to put up with hundreds of thousands of criminals in its territory, who will seek not only to secure their existence by means of crime, but also to take revenge!
Least of all do we wish to see a breeding-ground for Bolshevism and a roof organization for the political and criminal sub-humans who crumble away from the edge of our own nation as the result of a process of natural elimination....

The SS already had designs on the "Final Solution" at this point though it is still not quite said directly. But clearly the Night of Broken Glass had opened the door to the government sanctioned slaughter of the Jews and it was only a matter of time from there.
