The mission of women is to be beautiful and to bring children into the world. This is not at all as.........unmodern as it sounds. The female bird pretties herself for her mate and hatches eggs for him. In exchange, the male takes care of gathering food, and stands guard and wards off the enemy. -Joseph Goebbels, writing in 1929.

What happens to a woman’s conscience? How easily tainted, like a Jew, The German paper alert to the struggle for truth! Jewish Calculations What happens to a woman’s conscience?

Hitler's Death In April of 1945, Hitler moved into the Fueherbunker, an underground bunker fifty feet below the chancellery buildings in Berlin. Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels brought his entire family, including six young children, to live with Hitler in the bunker. When Berlin was attacked by the Russians, most people left the bunker to go to the mountain retreat.

Hitler's Death My Fuhrer! In view of your decision to remain in the fortress of Berlin, do you agree that I take over at once the total leadership of the Reich, with full freedom of action at home and abroad as your deputy, in accordance with your decree of June 29, 1941? If no reply is received by 10 o’clock tonight, I shall take it for granted that you have lost your freedom of action, and shall consider the conditions of your decree as fulfilled, and shall act for the best interests of our country and our people. You know what I feel for you in this gravest hour of my life. Words fail me to express myself. May God protect you, and speed you quickly here in spite of all. Your loyal, Hermann Goring

On May 1, Goebbels and his wife poisoned their six children and then had an SS man shoot them and burn them.
