3. Adolf Hitler
Back Ground
How did he get so many followers?
“As Führer, Adolf Hitler stands far above us all, but as a person
he is as our father or brother. He knows our suffering and our
sorrows, feels them with us, because he himself went through
life’s hardest school and never forgot his own years of bitter
poverty. Everyone, therefore, comes to him for help, and just
as he will one day be the savior of the whole people, today he
helps each individual fighter.” : “Hitler’s goals are: Achieving
freedom for the German people, Achieving its proper place
among the peoples, Building the foundations for its ability to
survive.”

Jews in Japan
“Jews holding citizenship of any country would be accorded treatment
comparable to citizens of that country. Jews without citizenship would be
considered stateless, in the same category as White Russian émigrés. This
group of Jews would be under surveillance because of their "racial
characteristics." Another category of Jews, those who could be considered
"useful" to Japan because of their political or economic influence, would
receive the same treatment that they received prior to the war.”
