Nazis Approve Letting Jews Leave To Palestine If They Forfeit Wealth
In meetings between Nazis Hans Hartenstein and Hans Schmidt-Roelke, and Zionist supporter Sam Cohen a deal was struck to allow Jews to leave Nazi controlled Germany. Jews could pay the money to migrate to Palestine, but in exchange they would have to leave behind all other wealth not need to move their family. Wealth in this manner would be confiscated by the Nazi government. Other positions included houses and businesses would be given to white Germans.
Author and historian Edwin Black states that “the Zionist movement promoting German exports would not only increase desperately needed foreign exchange and domestic jobs, but would pierce a stake through the heart of the Jewish-led anti-Nazi boycott”
