Joseph Goebbels publicly blamed the Jews for Kristallnacht, claiming that it was a spontaneous reaction by the German population to the assassination of a German diplomat by a Jewish refugee. He portrayed it as a justified response against Jewish economic and social influence in Germany.

What did Joseph goebel do?

Goebbels was Hitler's Minister of Propaganda and one of the most important and influential people in Nazi Germany Goebbels was given the task of building up Nazi support in Berlin. He did this between 1926 and 1930. In 1928, he was elected to the Reichstag - something that he repeated in 1930. In 1929, he had been given overall charge of the party's propaganda machine. It was here that Goebbels excelled. In 1933, after Hitler was appointed chancellor, Goebbels was appointed Minister of Enlightenment and Propaganda. He held this post until 1945. However, except for issues involving his marriage, he had Hitler's support. Goebbels was a notorious womaniser and his wife wanted to divorce him after one liaison too many. Hitler refused to give his permission for a divorce as he had spent much time cultivating the importance of family values to the German public. During the Second World War, it was easy for Goebbels to persuade the public that things were going well when the war was going Germany's way. However, this became a lot more difficult after the Battle of Stalingrad. This was portrayed on film as a failing of generals on the eastern front not showing enough commitment to the Nazi cause. Goebbels demanded "total war" from the Germans and in 1944, he was appointed Reich Commissioner for Total Mobilisation. As Berlin was besieged by the Russians in April/May 1945, Goebbels stayed with Hitler in Hitler's bunker. In his diary, he blamed the defeat of Germany on the German people and not Hitler. On May 1st, he gave poison to his six children and then shot his wife and then himself. He gave orders that his body should be burned. Before, his death, it is said that Hitler gave to Goebbels his own wrist watch as a mark that he had been the only senior Nazi leader to have stayed with Hitler to the end.


What sort of person was Joseph Goebbels?

Goebbels was a man of letters, quite brilliant and as that implies, a writer. The Goebbels diaries, in translation, in part ( much was lost during the post-war and so-called De-Nazification period) survive and make intriguing reading. In several hundred pages of writing, Goebbels uses the term Nazi only once or twice! Of course when he speaks of the Party the Nazi one is understood. At times he seems to have been fairly religious ( judged from his writings). Goebbels served the Nazi Cause well as Propaganda Minister ( No equivalent US posting) and also Gauleiter ( county executive) of Greater Berlin. Goebbels was the main Nazi Ideologue or thinker- and surely he wrote materials which were verbally expounded (and expanded) on by Hitler himself. Goebbels coined the term Total War in the Nazi context. He also pushed the semi-comic Kohlenklau ( Coal Thief) concept used in a wartime fuel-economy drive- yes energy conservation in Nazi Germany. These used a comic cartoon character and the phrase Kohlenklau Kommft! ( The coal thief is coming!) or maybe more colloquial- Watch out- Here comes the Kohlenklau!~
