, Fate will not be confined by paragraphs.
The war which is being waged today by the German armed forces under the highest command of Adolf Hitler is a war of an immense reform.

About this person
Alfred Ernst Rosenberg was a Baltic German who entered Hitler's orbit through Dietrich Eckart and became the party's chief ideologue. His 1930 book The Myth of the Twentieth Century laid out core Nazi doctrine: racial hierarchy, hatred of Jews, the demand for Lebensraum, rejection of Versailles, and contempt for "degenerate" art and traditional Christianity. He edited the party newspaper Völkischer Beobachter, led the NSDAP Office of Foreign Affairs from 1933 to 1945, and ran Amt Rosenberg, the regime's cultural surveillance apparatus. When Germany invaded the Soviet Union, he became head of the Reich Ministry for the Occupied Eastern Territories and helped direct the genocide against the Slavs. At Nuremberg he was convicted of crimes against peace, war crimes, and crimes against humanity. He was executed by hanging on 16 October 1946.
