Speaker 0 describes a stance to attack only on the front lines, not against women or children, noting that “that was a data loss,” and that they “did it to all fronts” and “we did not fly a night attack.” He argues that since bombs would be dropped anyway, before the German people he cannot permit his own Volksgenossen to perish while sparing foreigners, so the war must be fought and the sacrifices available must be used.
Speaker 1, after acknowledging that he cannot deny this any longer, refers to himself as “the greatest strategist born so far” and declares that the Luftkrieg (air war) is his doing. He calls it a brilliant idea by Mister Georgill against the civilian population, noting England apparently rejected this in anticipation of future developments. He asserts that in this war he did not conduct night attacks on civilian populations in Poland, arguing that at night the objective cannot be hit as accurately, so he primarily targeted roofs and aimed at military targets. He says he did the same in Norway, Holland, and France. He contrasts this with a belief that the British Air Force would be unable to escape German scrutiny if night raids targeted civilians, implying that the German campaign aimed at military targets. As the war in the West ended, he extended his efforts toward “Henglad,” and faced pressure from many to act sooner: “how long, Führer, do you wait? They do not stop.” He waited over three months and then gave the order to commence the fight with the same resolve with which he had started every battle, continuing “up to now.”
Speaker 2 portrays the enemy as incredibly cruel and determined to destroy Germany, stating that the enemy has proclaimed this thousands of times, and asserting that there is no reason to doubt it. He intensifies the claim by equating the enemies’ motives with biblical purge concepts, describing a wish for Germany’s extermination with “Mann und Maus und Jung und Alt.” He emphasizes that what would be done to German women and children cannot be imagined, urging that it will be a total war that affects every German, their lives, existence, family, wife, and child—the war threatens life itself. He concludes that wherever now flourishing cities and villages exist, a future of desolation would result, turning into a desert; the war, he says, is total and affects everyone.
