The Moses of the German people – Hitler – will lead Germany out of Jewish bondage, through the Red Sea of Jewish blood, as Moses led the Jewish people out of Egypt through the Red Sea, huge placards posted up by the Nazi Organisation in the Vienna streets in connection with the election campaign to the Vienna City Council declare.
Jewish blood will flow, the placards proclaim.

The “Freiheitskampf”, a Berlin Nazi organ, hailed Adolf Hitler a few weeks ago as an Aryan Messiah. Hitler has been sent as the emissary of God, the paper claimed. This cannot be doubted, it said, by those who give serious attention to Adolf Hitler’s nature and his deeds. God has sent to Germany this amazing and truly incomparable man of purest Aryan German blood and unmistakable genius to liberate us from Jewish domination, it wrote, proceeding to compare Hitler with Oliver Cromwell and George Washington.
