I found a number of Nazi propaganda posters calling Jews a "racial bastard" at these links:

Presumably later copies of old glass slides, shown in a context with the german newsreels in the german cinemas at that time.

What is your question?

I don't have a question. I've seen these propaganda newsreels before in books on the Holocaust, because they savaged Jews as a racial nuisance, so that's why I thought I'd share these powerful propaganda newsreels.

Not a problem at all...

In my childhood years such glass slides were used in every german cinema after the supporting movie, and the final movie.

The shops of our family had about a good dozen of the slides, and the childhood friends were always joking about the "Westerholt" slides,
when we kids were sitting in the cinema. :D

The former "negatives" were about 12 by 12 centimeters large, handpainted by the local graphic designer "Herr Schmidt".
Herr Schmidt was the local designer for all most everything, stationary, stamps, glass slides, posters, newspaper advertising.
Whatever was needed, Herr Schmidt desigend it, and he was excellent. :wink:

The Nazis considered the Germans to be just as racially mixed as the Jews.

Nevertheless, they regarded ‘Germans’ and ‘Jews’ to be racially different. Ironically, the Nuremberg Laws relied on one’s religious background to determine whether someone was to be considered a ‘German’ or a ‘Jew’. Also, neither ‘German’ nor ‘Jew’ was ever satisfactorily defined.
