WE KNOW exactly what MS cal
w culations were. 1t is not mat.
ter of guesswork. He expoundec
them over and over again for years
They are set forth with complete
lucidity in "Mein Kampf." They
were the basis of all his negotia
tons and all his political move.
from the beginning OF his career
They were as follows:
4. Germany must ma X e a
united Nazi Reich. embracing all
the indisputable Germanic popu-
lation of Europe.
2. She must raise the stand
/ard of the NaZi revolution
against communism, and fight
for il as world concept. With
out a successful world concept
she could not win the war.
3. Germany's memorable enc
mics are France and. Russia.
Without a totally defeated and
impotent France, her greater
aim could not be realized, which
was the colonization of Euro
pean Russia, and a continental
hegemony from the Urals to the
Channel.
4. Germany cannot fight sue
cessfully against world alliance
and has only two natural allies:
Great Britain and Italy.
s. Italy. though weak state
by nature, has been vastly
strengthened by fascism.
9. II is wholly in the interests
of England to make an alliance
with Hitler. England's natural
enemies are France, which owns
and controls the Channel ports.
and the United States. which is
bound TO lay claim to the At
lantic Ocean and challenge Eng
land there.
A IN number one succeeded, and
"A neither England nor France
interfered to stop it. But aim
number two was an absolutely
integral part of Hitlers whole
strategy.
Hitler the revolutionist early
came to the conclusion that vio-
lence by itself could accomplish
nothing.
The use of force alone without
the driving power of a basic con-
ception can never destroy an idea
and its spread except by complete
determination of its very last
adherent.
For experience shows that .
any persecution carried on without
an intellectual basis spurs pre-
cisely the most vital part of the
people to protest and, indeed
all attempts to uproot doctrine
by violence with no intellectual
basis are failures"
This conception is argued al
length in ''Mein kampf," and the
conclusion is both implicit and
explicit: He must either utterly
destroy his enemies or convert
them to national socialism. and
thus bring them voluntarily and
as allies into his hegemony.
The determination of the Slavic
countries and of France CORE
sponded to his racial theories
Hitler considers the French to be
perTneated by negroid blood and
all Slavs a natural slave folk. He
goes into this explicitly and Al
length in ''Mein Kampf' and ir
numerous other writings.
