The Man With The Iron Heart

Heinrich Himmler: I'm looking for someone to run the new SS intelligence unit. Its objective is to gain information on our political enemies. And expose infiltration by government agencies and foreign powers. Tell me- what is your philosophy on intelligence gathering?
Reinhard Heydrich: Intelligence is a marriage of instinct and information, sir...
Heinrich Himmler: Go on.
Reinhard Heydrich: Intelligence requires organization and industry. No one, Herr Himmler, will work harder than me and no one will be more organized.

Lina Von Osten: You know who Hitler is?
Klaus Heydrich: Yeah.
Lina Von Osten: That's him. See that man in the picture?That's our leader. He has just been named Chancellor of Germany. Do you know what that means? It means that he will be able to save our country. That's why mommy and daddy are so happy today.

Reinhard Heydrich: Mein Führer, I stand by the principle that only the best of our people- the racially most carefully selected, of excellent character and pure spirit are capable of providing a service to combat all that is negative and returning our nation to greatness. I am German, mein Führer. And I love my country.

Reinhard Heydrich: We stand at a unique moment in history. Prague, alongside Berlin and Vienna, has been chosen to become the first city free of Jewry in the new Reich. ... All Jews will be required to immediately report to the nearest police station and required to wear a distinctive symbol testifying to their race. All Czech resistance organizations will be destroyed and dismantled without mercy. At the same time, we will increase the salaries of all Czechs working in the armaments factories. The Czech people must know that so long as they are our friends, we will be theirs!

Reinhard Heydrich: In addition to the wider issues of methodology and timescale of the cleansing, there are important clerical and legal decisions to be made at this meeting. I have itemized them as follows. Please hand them around. Jews with military decoration. Half-Jews. Quarter-Jews. Jews in mixed marriages. We shall review them all one by one.
     Will you please turn to page five, gentlemen? This will give you some idea of the task at hand... The figures from our most recent census, dated the 1st of January 1942. Germany: 700,000, Poland: 2 million. Latvia: 300,000, Lithuania: 150,000. Estonia: already cleansed. Satellite countries - Slovakia: 88,000, Croatia: 40,000. Allies - Italy, including Sardinia: 58,000. Neutral countries - 18,000. Sweden: 8,000. Turkey: 55,000. And so on down the page.
     The Einsatzgruppen are already working at maximum efficiency. The elimination of between eleven and twelve million individuals requires a more systematic approach, requires more advanced technology. There is much work to be done....

Reinhard Heydrich: Your Three Kings are dead! The resistance is finished. Go home, tell your families, tell your friends, it's over.

Reinhard Heydrich: My father wrote an opera... There is a line that I remember... 'The world is a barrel organ. God turns the wheel. And we all dance to his music.' Make them dance.
