Description
This article discusses Golhagen's belief that the machinery of murder in the Holocaust could not have set execution in motion unless there was the backing of the population.It discusses that his book makes us acknowledge deeply rooted anti-Semitism in Christian Europe, and Hitler's success may have been fueled by propoganda with a religious core.
