NEWS – About Hitler’s Willing Executioners:

Front page article in the New York Times on October 15 announces that the revolution in understanding that Hitler’s Willing Executioners produced about the Holocaust has unequivocally become, just fifteen years after the book’s publication, the consensus view in Germany. The establishment German Historical Museum in Berlin has opened a major exhibition that confirms and builds upon the conclusions of Hitler’s Willing Executioners: “This exhibition is about Hitler and the Germans — meaning the social and political and individual processes by which much of the German people became enablers, colluders, co-criminals in the Holocaust,” said the authoritative Constanze Stelzenmüller, until recently the director of the German Marshall Fund Berlin Office. “That this was so is now a mainstream view, rejected only by a small minority of very elderly and deluded people, or the German extreme right-wing fringe. But it took us a while to get there” (emphasis added).
