An excerpt from Hitler's famous Reichstag speech January 30, 1939: "in connection with the Jewish question I have this to say: It is a shameful spectacle to see how the whole democratic world is oozing sympathy for the poor tormented Jewish people, but remains hard-hearted and obdurate when it comes to helping them. If the international Jewish financiers in and outside of Europe should succeed in plunging the nations once more into a world war, then the result will not be the Boishevization of the earth, and thus the victory of Jewry, but the annihilation of the Jewish race in Europe!"

What does Hitler's quote tell us about Nazi plans for the Jews? Did people believe him when he used the word annihilation? What was Hitler referring to when he called nations hard-hearted?

Respond to "extinguished" in the letter.
