Joseph Goebbels Speech (December 4th, 1935 / Saarland)

A speech by Joseph Goebbels:

Quote / Translation:
"Speech by Reich Minister for Popular Enlightenment and Propaganda, Joseph Goebbels, at the opening of the Reich Radio Station Saarbrücken in the "Wartburg" on December 4, 1935."

Online audio file, duration 45+ minutes, quality is unfortunately poor.
Nevertheless, perhaps interesting for some fellow readers here in the forum.

* The speech of that time is radical, disturbing, even today.
I can imagine very well how the audience at that time hung on the minister's lips, frightening, still.
"They" is the keyword of the former speech, one of the best examples for the typical propaganda at the time...

** It is amazing that such a long speech is still available online today, very certainly not without reason.
The paradise of the successful lends itself perfectly to a hell for the unsuccessful. (Bertold Brecht on Hollywood)
