Pietro Sclari, Berlin correspondent of the influential Gazetta del Popolo, in a lengthy review of the two years of Hitlerism warns against the concept that Nazism will abandon anti-Semitism as time goes on.
Sclari recalls in his review that when he predicted, more than two years ago, that the Nazis would never abandon their anti-Semitic policy, he was not believed.
“It would be a mistake now,” he writes, “to imagine that the Nazi anti-Semitic program will be weakened. For the more firmly Hitlerism abandons the Socialistic aspects of its program, the more firmly it will cling to extreme anti-Semitism, and ascribe all its failures as a result of Jewish machinations. German anti-Semitism, which was of such great value to the Nazi party, will be equally valuable to the Nazi state.”
