The Man Who Spread Hate in Nazi Germany: Julius Streicher
Nuremberg Trials: The Leaders of Nazi Germany

From the 1920s to 1945, Julius Streicher used words as weapons.
Through his newspaper Der Stürmer, he flooded Germany with antisemitic propaganda, lies, and hatred.
He portrayed Jews as monsters, corruptors, and enemies of the nation — poisoning the minds of millions.
His newspaper was read in schools, displayed on public walls, and treated as truth by a generation.
Streicher’s words helped prepare the ground for persecution and genocide — long before the killing began.
When the war ended, the man who never fired a shot was judged for the deaths his words inspired.
