"If international finance Jewry inside and outside Europe should succeed in plunging the nations once more into a world war, the result will be not the Bolshevization of the earth and thereby the victory of Jewry, but the annihilation of the Jewish race in Europe."
A few questions:
1. Doesn't this statement show that he had an intent to annihilate Jews?
2. How did "international finance Jewry" plunge Europe into WW1 and why was it their goal?
3. What did Jews do between January and September 1939 to escalate a world war? World War II is considered to have officially become a world war on September 3, 1939, when Britain and France declared war on Germany, two days after Germany invaded Poland.
1) No. It should be obvious why not but I'll be writing this for posterity as much as anything else. Firstly I will draw your attention to the obvious that Adolf Hitler spoke German and so any translations into English are immediately liable for distortion. To demonstrate my point, the BBC documentary "World At War" from 1973 translated that line from that speech as "that will be the end of the Jews in Europe"
11.42
Whats important to note here is that this documentary was produced over 30 years after this speech, so it's not as if they didn't have time to cobble together a satisfactorily "sinister" translation. That the translation became more and more sinister over time in line with holocaust hysteria is natural.
Your question presupposes a meaning which is at odds with the relevant actors at the time had of this speech, including both the NSDAP themselves, but also Holocaust proponents as I will demonstrate. Adolf Hitler cited himself 1 year later in January 1940:
"And I should like to repeat the warning that I have already once given, on September 1, 1939 [sic: Jan. 30, 1939], in the German Reichstag: namely, the warning that if Jewry drives the world into a general war, the role Jewry plays in Europe will be all over!"
Likewise Himmler commented on that quote on 23 Nov 1943:
The Jewish question in Europe has completely changed. The Führer once said in a Reichstag speech: If Jewry triggers an international war, for example, to exterminate the Aryan people, then it won’t be the Aryans who will be exterminated, but Jewry. The Jews have been resettled outside Germany, they are living here, in the east, and are working on our roads, railways etc. This is a consistent process, but is conducted without cruelty.
So as we can see, the very man, in your mind responsible for this "prophecy", referred to it not only in the past tense as having been completed, but peacefully.
Likewise Joseph Goebbels:
"the Führer’s prophecy, when he explained at the beginning of the war that it would not end with the destruction (Vernichtung) of the Aryan race, but with the expulsion (Austreibung) of Jewry from Europe."
and finally:
At the Irving-Lipstadt libel trial it was conceded by Lipstadt’s team of anti-revisionist Holocaust experts that prior to 1941 there was no Nazi policy to exterminate Jewry. Justice Gray noted: “It is common ground between the parties [Irving and Lipstadt’s team of Holocaust experts] that, until the latter part of 1941, the solution to the Jewish question which Hitler preferred was their mass deportation.”56 The anti-revisionist experts at the Irving-Lipstadt libel trial further admitted: “…that in the 1930s Hitler should not be understood to have been speaking in a genocidal terms.”57

"B-b-but this is all just quote-ping-pong and doesn't actually prove anything!" Yes fair enough, however my position is a all the more underscored by the actions and behaviours of the players at the time, including the Allies. No nation, friendly or hostile to Germany, interpreted Hitler's Reichstag speech as to be what you are claiming it was, ie a Global announcement, during peacetime, of committing (or intention to commit) genocide. No nation ceased diplomatic relations with Germany on this issue, no nation made any claims of a genocide taking place or being planned or rolled out, because they had no valid reason to, nor any admission it was happening, because what you are claiming isn't the case. In fact, prior to diplomatic relations breaking down on 1st Sep 1939, in the 8 months immediately after this speech in January, was when Von Ribbentrop in particular was actively engaging with foreign Governments in his role as Foreign Minister, and liaising with Diplomats such as Henderson from the UK on a seemingly weekly basis,
this would have been the perfect time, place, channel and means to credibly accuse Germany of genociding the Jews and garner justification for a Declaration of War.... but they never did.
2) Complicated question and probably needs its own separate thread, independent of a thread about the Hitler quote.
3) Also decidedly complex, but it's a little more relevant to Adolf Hitler and the 3R so I'll indulge within this thread, and so to get us off to a start I will quote from Dr Dalton "The Jewish Hand In The World Wars":
Back in Washington, Ambassador Potocki sent two more revealing reports to Warsaw. A short statement on January 9 included this remark:
The American public is subject to an ever more alarming propaganda, which is under Jewish influence and continuously conjures up the specter of the danger of war. Because of this, the Americans have strongly altered their views on foreign policy problems, in comparison with last year.
Three days later came the longest and perhaps most insightful report:92
The feeling now prevailing in the United States is marked by a growing hatred of Fascism and, above all, of Chancellor Hitler and everything connected with Nazism. Propaganda is mostly in the hands of the Jews, who control almost 100 percent of radio, film, daily and periodical press. Although this propaganda is extremely coarse and presents Germany as black as possible—above all religious persecution and concentration camps are exploited—this propaganda is nevertheless extremely effective, since the public here is completely ignorant and knows nothing of the situation in Europe. …
The prevalent hatred against everything which is in any way connected with German Nazism is further kindled by the brutal policy against the Jews in Germany and by the émigré problem. In this action, various Jewish intellectuals participated: for instance, Bernard Baruch; the Governor of New York State, Lehman; the newly appointed judge of the Supreme Court, Felix Frankfurter; Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau; and others who are personal friends of President Roosevelt. They want the President to become the champion of human rights, freedom of religion and speech, and the man who in the future will punish trouble-makers. These groups of people, who occupy the highest positions in the American government and want to pose as representatives of ‘true Americanism’ and ‘defenders of democracy,’ are, in the last analysis, connected by unbreakable ties with international Jewry.
For this Jewish international, which above all is concerned with the interests of its race, to portray the President of the United States as the ‘idealist’ champion on human rights was a very clever move. In this manner they have created a dangerous hotbed for hatred and hostility in this hemisphere, and divided the world into two hostile camps. The entire issue is worked out in a masterly manner. Roosevelt has been given the foundation for activating American foreign policy, and simultaneously has been procuring enormous military stocks for the coming war, for which the Jews are striving very consciously.
If Potocki were correct, it would mean that war had effectively been decided upon by the Allied powers. And in fact, that’s exactly what Bullitt said to American journalist Karl von Wiegand: “War in Europe has been decided upon. Poland had an assurance of the support of Britain and France, and would yield to no demands from Germany. America would be in the war after Britain and France entered it”.93 Bullitt obviously had inside access to a well-developed plan, one that was proceeding apace.
Further pro-war sentiments in Britain came from their Jewish Secretary of War, Leslie Hore-Belisha. Appointed by Chamberlain in 1937, he quickly came to be seen as spoiling for a fight with Hitler, one that the British were ill-prepared to take on. British MP Oswald Mosley publicly labeled Hore-Belisha “a Jewish warmonger,” and chief of staff Henry Pownall, writing in his diary in May 1939, called him “an obscure, shallow-brained, charlatan, political Jewboy”.94 Also in May, Hore-Belisha succeeded in pushing through the first-ever peacetime military draft in the UK; clearly he was expecting war. Conflicts with Chamberlain’s relatively pacifist staff increased, and Hore-Belisha was finally dismissed in January 1940, just four months into WW2.
Emphasis mine.
