This clearly undermines

Professor Evans expressed the opinion that the subject matter of was probably not the Jewish question generally but rather the narrower issue of mixed marriages between Jews and Gentiles and the children of such marriages (“Mischlinge”).
This is undermined by Nuremberg Trial Document,
NG-2586-J, which is a summary of Nazi Jewish policy. It is a memo by [Unterstaatssekretär] Martin
Luther, dated August 21, 1942. It is reprinted in full in Arthur Butz’s Hoax of the twentieth
Century at page 209. Under point 8, it states:
"On the occasion of a reception by the Reich
Foreign Minister on 26 November 1941 the Bulgarian
Foreign Minister Popoff touched on the problem of
according like treatment to the Jews of European
nationalities and pointed out the difficulties that the
Bulgarians had in the application of their Jewish laws to
Jews of foreign nationality.""The Reich Foreign Minister answered that he thought this question brought by Mr. Popoff not uninteresting. Even now he could say one thing to him, that at the end of the war all Jews would have to leave
Europe. This was an unalterable decision of the Fuehrer and also the only way to master this problem, as only a global and comprehensive solution could be applied and individual measures would not help very much."
David Irving replies:
GOOD point. There is a lot of other collateral material which makes it quite plain that Hitler, unlike the fanatics on his staff, wanted to win the war before deaing with non-essential issues like the Church problem and the Judenfrage.
