I agree that the man's opinions may be objectionable, but his actions were courageous.
Please research your facts: ***This man never joined the Nazi party***!!! This man was a German nationalist, and, yes, to be honest, a racist (as most Europeans were). But, as a traditional German and a Roman Catholic, he was disgusted and morally outraged by the way he saw the Jews and Slavic peoples being treated during Operation Barbarosa, and this was the seed of his opposition to Hitler. He was an anti-Nazi, not a “Nazi”, as you describe him. Your article should be entitled “The GERMAN Who Opposed Hitler.”
