Frases de Hans Fritzsche

Hans Fritzsche . Militar y periodista alemán.

Combatió en la Primera Guerra Mundial en el cuerpo de infantería. En 1932 entró a trabajar en la radio y pronto se vinculó al Partido Nazi. Mantuvo contactos con Adolf Hitler a quien mostró las ventajas del uso de la radio para hacer llegar su ideología. Cuando Joseph Goebbels se hizo cargo del Ministerio de Propaganda en la Alemania nazi, Fritzsche ocupó un destacado cargo en el Departamento de Prensa del ministerio. Más tarde, como jefe de prensa, controló la información que se ofrecía desde Alemania durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial hasta 1942, en el que el propio Goebbels se hizo con la jefatura, siendo enviado de nuevo a la radio como alto comisionado del Ministerio de Propaganda. En mayo de 1945 fue capturado por el Ejército Rojo en Berlín.

Fue entregado al Tribunal para los Juicios de Núremberg bajo la acusación de conspirar para cometer crímenes de guerra, crímenes contra la paz y crímenes contra la humanidad, pero fue absuelto por falta de pruebas. Más tarde fue arrestado y condenado a nueve años de prisión como parte de un proceso de desnazificación. Sin embargo, fue puesto en libertad en 1950, antes de cumplir la condena, ya que estuvo claro para el tribunal que Fritzsche era inocente de las acusaciones. Wikipedia

Hans Fritzsche: Frases en inglés

“I mean, the realization that crime does not begin when you murder people. Crime begins with propaganda, even if such propaganda is for a good cause. The moment propaganda turns against another nation or against any human being, evil starts”

To Leon Goldensohn, April 6, 1946, from "The Nuremberg Interviews" by Leon Goldensohn, Robert Gellately - History - 2004
Contexto: What I would like to emanate from the darkness of this tragedy is one spark of life. I mean, the realization that crime does not begin when you murder people. Crime begins with propaganda, even if such propaganda is for a good cause. The moment propaganda turns against another nation or against any human being, evil starts. Whereas the Germans started propaganda toward the end of this tragedy, you Allies stand at the beginning of the tragedy.

“We Germans carried our hatred from the First World War to the Second World War, and now you are about to carry the hatred about the murder of 5 million people on to another World War.”

“I often said that never in the history of the world did one man receive so much faith and trust as Hitler. Similary, no one has ever betrayed so many people and abused so much good faith as he did.”

To Leon Goldensohn, May 24, 1946, from "The Nuremberg Interviews" by Leon Goldensohn, Robert Gellately - History - 2004 - Page 71

“I do not by any means want to deny that I and my fellow workers selected news and quotations following a certain tendency. It is the curse of propaganda during war that one works only with black and white. But to my knowledge it is a mistake to believe that in the Propaganda Ministry thousands of little lies were hatched out. If we had lied on a thousand small things, the enemy would have been able to deal with us more easily than was the case.”

September, 1946, at the Nuremberg Trials, quoted in "The Trial of the Germans" - Page 543 by Eugene Davidson - History - 1997

“So if despite that, Hitler prepared war, he perpetrated the greatest lie and betrayal in the world. This trial clearly shows that Hitler did just that. I have no hesitation to state very clearly that Hitler was a liar and a betrayer on a mammoth scale. Even without the death of the 5 million extermination camp victims, Hitler would still go down in history as the greatest villain that ever lived.”

“The democracy which shows up in the United States and in England is not an ideal democracy, because the will of the people is under the pressure of property, which is in the hands of the wealthy capitalists.”

To Leon Goldensohn, May 8, 1946, from "The Nuremberg Interviews" - by Leon Goldensohn, Robert Gellately - History - 2004

“Moreover, there is this completely false trial. I would participate wholeheartedly in a trial if it were to determine the guilt for 5 million murdered people and the guilt for the atrocities. But I see in this trial endless other things brought out and I have the feeling that in the shadow of the guilt of these murders the German people shall be considered guilty of everything, and in the shadow of this guilt the Americans, English, French, and especially the Russians will want to get rid of their own dirty linen.”

To Leon Goldensohn, March 2, 1946, from "The Nuremberg Interviews" - by Leon Goldensohn, Robert Gellately - History - 2004

“In the first place, there is the Hitler group, among whom are the most guilty of the defendants and about whom very little, if any, good can be spoken. By the Hitler group I include Göring, Ribbentrop, Kaltenbrunner, Keitel, Rosenberg, Frank, and Streicher. Then there is the group which one might call idealistic. Unfortunately, too many of us were indifferent. Not many belonged to the idealistic group, and I don't care to name them because I think I would be stretching a point to call any of the defendants idealists. I feel that perhaps of all the defendants I was the only idealist, although I suffered from blindness and indifference myself. In this respect, I am not like Speer, Schirach, and Funk. Schacht I consider an opportunist.”
