The burning of "un-German" books to the number of 20,000 on the Opernplatz in Berlin, Germany on the night of May 10, 1933 was only the most spectacular of various activities whereby the un-German spirit of pacifism, Marxism, Judaism was to be exterminated. Quaint fire-fellows found themselves juxtaposed on a foundation of sand when the students hurled their torches in front of the statue of Alexander von Humboldt. The one common denominator of the Jews involved was that most of them were afflicted with self-hatred to the point of active anti- Semitism-Marx.
