What Truly Caused the Pogrom of 1938

Image result for The pogrom in Germany was stopped on the evening of November 10, 1938 by order of Goebbels.  Should the Americans wait and hope that some high-ranking bureaucrat will stop another Jewish pogrom, or will we stop them by using our legal rights and legal means?

Everyone knows what happened 80 years ago, November 9-10, 1938 in Germany.  The unprecedented pogrom of the Jews got the name Kristallnacht – "Night of Broken Glass."  Today, we are well aware of the approximate number of murdered Jews, destroyed businesses, and burned synagogues.  The formal reason for the pogrom was the murder of the German diplomat Ernst vom Rath in Paris by the Jewish teenager Herschel Grynszpan on November 7.

Unfortunately, few people know about the true causes of the pogrom.

Who created the conditions under which a mass pogrom of Jews in the Third Reich could even take place?
