The Wannsee Conference. Heinrich Müller (Gestapo) Heinrich Müller (28 April 1900; date of death unknown, but known evidence points to May 1945) was a German police official under both the Weimar Republic and Nazi Germany.
He became chief of the Gestapo, the political secret state police of Nazi Germany, and was involved in the planning and execution of the Holocaust. He was known as "Gestapo Müller" to distinguish him from another SS general named Heinrich Müller. He was last seen in the Führerbunker in Berlin on 1 May 1945 and remains the most senior figure of the Nazi regime who was never captured or confirmed to have died. Historian Richard J. Evans wrote: "Müller was a stickler for duty and discipline, and approached the tasks he was set as if they were military commands.
An internal [Nazi] Party memorandum ... could not understand how "so odious an opponent of the movement" could become head of the Gestapo, especially since he had once referred to Hitler as "an immigrant unemployed house painter" and "an Austrian draft-dodger. " Wannsee Conference and the "Final Solution" On January 20, 1942, 15 high-ranking Nazi Party and German government officials gathered at a villa in the Berlin suburb of Wannsee to discuss and coordinate the implementation of what they called the "Final Solution of the Jewish Question.
" Representing the SS at the meeting were: SS General Reinhard Heydrich, the chief of the Reich Security Main Office (Reichssicherheitshauptamt-RSHA) and one of Reichsführer-SS (SS chief) Heinrich Himmler's top deputies; SS Major General Heinrich Müller, chief of RSHA Department IV (Gestapo); SS Lieutenant Colonel Adolf Eichmann, chief of the RSHA Department IV B 4 (Jewish Affairs); SS Colonel Eberhard Schöngarth, commander of the RSHA field office for the Government General in Krakow, Poland; SS Major Rudolf Lange, commander of RSHA Einsatzkommando 2, deployed in Latvia in the autumn of 1941; and SS Major General Otto Hofmann, the chief of SS Race and Settlement Main Office.

Gilad Atzmon Last week, as Jewish Lobbies continue to invest enormous efforts in dictating and imposing a rigid and unquestionable Holocaust narrative, Israeli Haaretz published a short, succinct and courageous report challenging the validity of the Wannsee Conference as proof of the Nazi ‘final solution’.
Just ahead of Holocaust Memorial Day, the Israeli paper reported that Dr. Norbert Kampe (63), director of the “Wannsee Conference” Memorial Centre in Berlin, has challenged some of the most widely-accepted historical ‘facts’ associated with the conference and its meaning. Jewish Holocaust scholars have always insisted that the master plan for the Nazi Judeocide was conceived at the Wannsee Conference but Dr. Kampe is quoted as saying that the conference dealt only with “operational matters” instead of being a platform of any form of “decision making”. And yet, Haaretz admits, “Make no mistake. The moral here is simple. Adobe Unveils BrowserLab in Free Preview for Web Designers. Wannsee Conference > Holocaust > Key Moments > WW2History.com.

First and foremost, the “protocols” of the Wannsee conference do not explicitly mention mass genocide. However, it does state that “in the course of the final solution the Jews are to be allocated for appropriate labor in the East.
Able-bodied Jews, separated according to sex, will be taken in large work columns to these areas for work on roads, in the course of which action doubtless a large portion will be eliminated by natural causes.” The apparent plan was to send them for labor, where death by sickness or ‘natural cause’ was indeed possible.

A Most Horrifying Anniversary - Matt Vespa. Seventy-three years ago today, 15 high-ranking Nazi Party officials from Eastern and Western Europe were ordered to attend a meeting at Wannsee, located outside Berlin.
At what became known as the infamous "Wannsee Conference," these 15 men were tasked with carrying out Hitler’s final solution to the Jewish question. Who would be classified as Jewish, along with the methods of transportation and extermination, were all discussed. Questions from these officials undoubtedly surrounded the most efficient means of making Europe free of Jewish influence, while also debating how to use Jews for labor projects before their summary executions. There were also discussions as to who will be exempt from “evacuation.” During the meeting, which lasted only 90 minutes, the Nazis turned genocide into a science.
