Now, the night of broken glass has been WAY over represented in hisorical documents. It was not formally supported by the government and it was rather isolated. Only in München was it as bad as they show in all those propaganda reels (british press, not german by the way). I know many who were heartbroken to find out that their best friend was being made to move out of his house because he was Jewish, in particular a good friend who was in the Deutschejungvolk (the arm of the Hitler Youth for those between 9 and 14), He said,"Before that I didn't even know what a jew was."
