On June 1, 1960, Paula Hitler sister
of Adolf Hitler died. In 1957 Paula Hitler published a statement aimed at the
post war Jewish controlled German press in support of her brother, 12 years
after his death. This is the content of that letter.
“Gentlemen, never forget this; your names
will be forgotten even before your bodies have rotted away in the earth, but
the name Adolf Hitler will still be a light in the darkness. You cannot murder
him by drowning his memory in your sick buckets, and you cannot strangle him
with your filthy, ink stained fingers.
His name exists forever in hundreds of
thousands of souls. You are far too insignificant to even touch him. He loved
Germany. He fretted over Germany, and when he fought for honor and respect, he
fought for German honor and respect for Germany. And when there was nothing
left, he gave his life for Germany.
What have you given so far? Which one of you
would give his life for Germany? The only things you care about are riches,
power, and never ending luxurious living. When you think of Germany, you think
of without responsibility or care.
Trust me on this: the Fuhrer's utter
unselfishness in word and deed alone guarantees his immortality. The fact that
the bitter fight for Germany's greatness wasn't crowned by success like
Cromwell's in Britain, for example, has a lot to do with the mentality of the
people involved. On the one hand the Englishman's character is essentially
unfair, ruled by jealousy, self-importance, and lack of consideration. But he
never forgets he is an Englishman, loyal to his crown. On the other hand, you
with your need for recognition are never first and foremost a German. Therefore
it doesn't matter to you, you insignificant beings, if you destroy the entire
nation. Your only guiding thought will always be me first, me second, me third.
In your worthlessness you will never think of the welfare of the nation, and
with that pitiful philosophy you wish to prevent the immortality of a
giant?"
