【日本語字幕】ヒトラー首相就任演説 - Hitler Speech "Proclamation to the German Nation"

My German national comrades Before the meeting begins I would just like to take notice of a few articles from the Berlin press which assert that I shouldn't be allowed to broadcast over the German radio, since I'm too insignificant, too small, and too much of a habitual liar to address the whole world. This evening you are eyewitnesses to a mass occurrence which in this size in Germany and probably throughout the world has never before taken place. I don't think it's saying too much to claim that tonight at least 20 million people in Germany and across the German frontier will be listening to the speech of Chancellor Adolf Hitler.

In Berlin alone, in addition to this great mass demonstration in the Sportpalast, ten large loudspeakers have been set up in open places, and already a great number of people have gathered in front of these loudspeakers. There is already a throng of five to six hundred thousand people standing before them to hear this speech. The Berliner Tageblatt has asked with astonishment who would pay for these loudspeakers.

I would like to calm the gentlemen of the Berliner Tageblatt by assuring them that we still have enough money, thank heaven, to pay for ten loudspeakers. We haven't found it necessary to turn to using such methods as those of the Marxist-Socialist-Democratic government, Although it would be more appropriate for us to use the fund for the fight against criminality for our own purposes against the Social Democratic Party. Perhaps we will lay claim to this method to expose the monstrous corruption scandals of the Marxist-Socialist-Democratic government which have been uncovered during the last 14 years.

This hour is closer than the gentlemen of the Berliner Tageblatt want to believe. When the Jewish press complains how the National Socialist movement is being allowed to speak on all German radio stations because of its chancellor, then we can answer that we're just doing what you have always done in the past. This words of ours are not empty.

"The people will be the teachers and we will be the diligent students" The Weimar government's 14 years of propaganda politics was a failure. Despite their control of the mass media all they could current parliamentary scandals which were useless for forming a new political base. The National Socialist movement will show them how they actually should have handled it.

We need a good government. We need good propaganda for that. Both are closely related.

A good government without propaganda can scarcely stand any better than good propaganda without a good regime. They have to complement each other. And if the Jewish press today believes that it can make veiled threats against the National Socialist movement, and if they believe that they can get around our defensive measures they shouldn't keep lying.

For one day our patience will reach its end and the Jews' insolent lying mouths will be shut for them. If a Jewish newspaper please asks us to let them be one of us, We say this "Please don't go to any great expense! " Members of the party and the SA, don't worry.

The end of the Red Terror is closer than you think. For who can deny that the Bolshevik press lies when the Rote Fahne, this piece of Jewish insolence, dares to assert that our comrade Maikowski and the policeman Zauritz were shot by our own comrades? The Jewish insolence has lived longer in the past than it will live in the future.

Communists, expect to get the worst drubbing you've ever had. I just wanted to settle with the enemy press and the enemy parties and say to them personally what I want to say over all German radio stations to the other millions of people. We're here in the Sportpalast and are eyewitnesses to this wonderful, unique mass occurrence of a size which has never been seen in Germany until now.

I don't believe we are reaching too high when we say that in Germany alone at least 20 million people are witnessing this unique happening. We're sitting up in the first balcony above the Sportpalast. Below, we see before our eyes the whole picture of a thrilling unique, great mass meeting a national meeting in the truest sense of the word.

Men and women, workers and students, flanked by SA and SS men and over the whole crowd is a feverish tension and anticipation. It is the same tension and anticipation which this evening has fallen over the entire city Berlin. Already as we enter the sportpalast we can see that the whole place is jammed.

The Berlin district has erected giant loudspeakers at 10 open places, and before these loudspeakers people are gathering to listen to the important speech which our Fuehrer. Already you can hear from the noise that the feverish tension is beginning grow. Men and women are rising from their seats.

The whole sportpalast is bustling like an anthill. Everywhere you can hear already the shouts of enthusiasm and approval, rejoicing and cries of "Heil". It is as if the Sportpalast has never shown such a face at a mass meeting.

Yet this picture is old and familiar to us, who hundreds of times have spoken from the podium of the Sportpalast. The former representatives of a standard opposition are today holders of power and responsibility. The public has stood up, and the first shouts of "Heil" to the Fuehrer ring out.

Below one can see the delegation coming in. Only a single SA officer paves the through the line of SA men, then a row of higher SS officers. All alone, striding solemnly through the joyfully shouting throng, is the Fuehrer.

Enter Adolf Hitler, the new Chancellor of the German Reich. Adolf Hitler, the leader of the new German Empire, is in his sportpalast. As the leader of a slandered and lonely opposition, now after scarcely more than three weeks as Chancellor, he steps up to the podium of the sportpalast to talk for the first time about the handing over of the Reich's Government, speaking not before parliament, but before the German people for 14 long year have endured patiently, suffered, and bled.

Our Fuehrer, the Reich's Chancellor Adolf Hitler, will speak. German national comrades. On January 30th of this year, the new government of the national coalition was formed.

I, and therefore the National Socialist movement, entered into it. I believe that the prerequisites which I have been fighting for for the past year have been attained. The reasons that caused me to bring this movement of millions into existence are known to me.

But I want these facts laid clearly before you once more by me personally, as to why I once began, called this movement to life, and for the present call it to action in the second, decisive phase in the fight for the German resurrection. In 1918 when the war ended, I felt like many millions of Germans. "I was not responsible for the causes of the war" "I was not the outbreak of the war" "I was not the conduct of the war" "I was not the responsible for the political situation in Germany" "Because I was fighting as one of ten million soldiers" Something became clear to me during these November days.

When already the life and origins of our own people are divided by the economy, social classes, education, and financial backgrounds, then political goal cannot be founded on this division and be expected to last.
