Adolf Hitler References British Rule in Palestine in Reichstag Address

“It appears to have slipped Mr. Roosevelt’s mind that Palestine is not being occupied by German troops, but by English ones. Palestine is undergoing brutal restrictions of its liberty. It is being robbed of its independence…”

“The Arabs living in this territory have not complained to Roosevelt of German aggressions, but have repeatedly appealed to international public opinion regarding England’s actions. England is attempting to suppress a people who love their freedom and are fighting to defend it.”

“This may well be one of the problems Mr. Roosevelt would like to see solved at the council table, before a just judge and not by brute force.”

“England cannot claim to be repulsing a threat to England. England is the invader, seeking to establish its rule by force in a country which does not belong to it.”

“I will not allow foreign politicians to see established here in the heart of Germany a second Palestine.”
