| תקציר/הערה |
The speech by Philipp Jenninger, president of the Bundestag, at the commemoration of the 50th anniversary of "Kristallnacht" was initially understood as though Jenninger was identifying with and expressing sympathy for Nazism. Argues that in fact he was presenting an interesting explanation for widespread German support for Hitler's policy, including antisemitism, and that attacks on him came from liberal and leftist political opponents. The "historians' debate" similarly reflects attempts by the Left to link conservative and neo-conservative opponents with apologies for Nazism. Thus, Michael Stürmer, a liberal democrat who warns against the irresponsibility of the Left's attacks on the Federal Republic's parliamentary institutions and their pacifist neutralism, was unfairly misrepresented as an ally of revisionists like Nolte. Regrets that many English-speaking commentators on the "historians' debate" have failed to understand its political context, although, unlike the German leftists, they regard comparisons of Soviet and Nazi crimes as legitimate.
