My favourite one of Himmler! View attachment 3904 It's always nice to see a job well done...... .....now the biggie - is that really him (ah, the good old conspiracy theories) ? And lets not forget our Italian friend:
Hitler and Himmler were clearly nuts, and by their directives were personally responsible for some of the most horrible crimes against humanity that took place during the war, but was Georing ever really responsible for giving orders that lay outside the acceptible parameters of a commander doing his duty? As far as I know his biggest fault (as far as war crimes) amounted to going along with whatever Hitler wanted. Any idea what Goering thought about the "final solution"?

Founded the Gestapo before handing control to Himmler to Himmler Plundered art worth millions from across Europe He was the highest figure in the Nazi Hierarchy who authorized, on paper, the Final Solution It was Goering who fined the German Jewish community a billion marks and ordered the elimination of Jews from the German economy, the "Aryanization" of their property and businesses, and their exclusion from schools, resorts, parks, forests, etc., after Kristallnacht Just a taster of his crimes.
