German Jewish leader welcomes Hitler exhibition
A German Jewish leader today welcomed a new exhibition in Berlin exploring the personality cult surrounding Adolf Hitler that helped the Nazis win and hold power.
Stephan Kramer of the Central Council of Jews said it was âa goodâ exhibition and âa serious approach to the themeâ.
Hitler and the Germans â Nation and Crime is the first exhibition in the German capital to focus so firmly on the role of the Nazi dictator.
Kramer said as the show opened to the public today that the exhibition comes âat the right time.â
He pointed to a recent debate over a book claiming German society was being made âdumberâ by Muslim immigrants as evidence of how, even now âthe lower middle class can be seduced ... (and) its fears pandered to.â
