I am not saying the Gregor cite is better then the Kershaw I would have to read the Kershaw cite The Gregor cite comes from journal article and specifically focuses on Mein Kampf Kershaw is a book I believe I was stating that the Kershaw and Gregor cites could both be used Gregor points out that Mien Kampf is the essense of Hitler violence Historians have trouble interpreting Mien Kampf because Hitler makes so many mistakes and is inconsistant Gregor answers if Mein Kampf is a blueprint for Nazi Germany in the 1930 s and 1940 s Hitler had yet to gain complete power until 1934 Hitler believed in a Darwinian world of the the strong survive and show no mercy Hitler constanly uses violent phrasiology in Mien Kampf Also Hitler is trying to establish himself as leader of the Nazi party in his auto biography Hitler intended to exterminate the Jews however he had yet to figure out how to do that I believe at least one sentence in Mein Kampf section that emphasises Hitler s violent intentions would be good for the AH article On a personal note I have attempted to read Mein Kampf at a bookstore once It was so delirious and violent I put the book down and could not read anymore
