almost all of his political enemies were wiped out during these nights. the leader of the SA, ernst rohm, was murdered in this time as he had become a threat. this meant that the only force still capable of removing Hitler was the army, which soon swore an oath of alliegance. almost any political enemy you can think of that would have could have or had opposed Hitler was killed on this night. pure terror. there was no longer anyone to oppose him.

What was the night of the knives?

The Night of Long Knives occurred on June 30, 1934. More than a thousand high ranking SA officials (Hitler's militant Nazi storm troopers), including several of Hitler's oldest affiliates were executed in a bloody purge by those who opposed the group's radicalism. After this purge, another Nazi organization was created to replace the SA officials: the Schutzstaffel, or the SS. The SS became the most dreaded arm of Nazi terror. Thus the Night of Long Knives was an action of opposition against the Nazi regime that simply gave rise to an even stronger paramilitary organization for the Nazis.
