Adolf Hitler's Political Testament

[Vigilant]

More than thirty years have passed since I made my modest contribution as a volunteer in the First World War, which was forced upon the Reich.

In these three decades, love and loyalty to my people alone have guided me in all my thoughts, actions and life. They gave me power to make the most difficult decisions which have ever confronted mortal man...

It is untrue that I or anybody else in Germany wanted war in 1939. It was wanted and provoked exclusively by those international statesmen who either were of Jewish origin or worked for Jewish interests.

I have made too many offers for the limitation and control of armaments, which posterity will not for all time be able to disregard, for responsibility for the outbreak of this war to be placed on me. Further, I have never wished that after the appalling First World War there should be a second one against either England or America. Centuries will go by, but from the ruins of our towns and monuments the hatred of those ultimately responsible will always grow anew. They are the people whom we have to thank for all this: international Jewry and its helpers.

Hitler then repeated the lie that three days before the attack on Poland he had proposed to the British government a reasonable solution of the Polish-German problem. (William L. Shirer comment)

It was rejected only because the ruling clique in England wanted war, partly for commercial reasons, partly because it was influenced by propaganda put out by the international Jewry.

I also made it quite plain that, if the peoples of Europe were again to be regarded merely as pawns in a game played by the international conspiracy of money and finance, they, the Jews, the race that is the real guilty party in this murderous struggle, would be saddled with the responsibility for it.

I left no one in doubt that this time not only would millions of grown men meet their death and not only would hundreds of thousands of women and children be burned and bombed to death in cities, but this time the real culprits would have to pay for their guilt even though by more humane means than war.

After six years of war, which in spite of all setbacks will one day go down in history as the most glorious and heroic manifestation of the struggle for existence of a nation, I cannot forsake the city that is the capital of this state...I wish to share my fate with that which millions of others have also taken upon themselves by staying in this town. Further, I shall not fall in the hands of the enemy, who requires a new spectacle, presented by the Jews, to divert their hysterical masses.

I have therefore decided to remain in Berlin and there to choose death voluntarily at that moment when I believe that the position of the Fuehrer and the Chancellory itself can no longer be maintained. I die with a joyful heart in the knowledge of the immeasurable deeds and achievements of our peasants and workers and of a contribution unique in history of our youth which bears my name.

In Hoax of the Twentieth Century Arthur Butz suggested that the two paragraphs regarding Jewish guilt were added after the war by the Allies because the testament wasn't released until December 1945. Nevertheless, they do speak of a more 'humane' treatment of the Jews, compared to war. Shirer in The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich omitted these two paragraphs and paraphrased them as follows:

Next he placed 'sole responsibility' not only for the millions of deaths suffered on the battlefields and in the bombed cities but for his own massacre of the Jews - on the Jews.

Strange that he should omit the paragraphs if that indeed had been what Hitler said.

Here's a link to the so-called Bormann Protocolls of 1945 (in different languages available), where Hitler strikes in the style of the table talks a bilance about his politics:

I remember once having read in a thread at Stormfront (very trustful source, LOL Maybe simply the Bormann protocolls, the "table talks" [Picker, Heims] and Rauschning's alleged "conversations with Hitler" were confused) that the Bormann protocolls were not authentical. But Zitelmann used them in his books, and I can't remember having ever read in the historical literature, also the latest, anything about them being not authentical. I don't remember in the moment if Kershaw used them...
