Press Cuttings (1941)

From the June 1941 issue of the Socialist Standard

German people bow in deep reverence to the Almighty, who has so visibly given us in this year His blessing. He knows we are waging this war for a better world, and that we are fighting for the happiness of mankind. (Dr. Goebbels to the German troops. Manchester Guardian January 1st, 1941.)

God Almighty will not desert those who, threatened by a world, are determined to help themselves with bold hearts. (Hitler, ditto.)

Millions of British hearts hold to the conviction that God will not deliver us over to the powers of evil. They remember how the National Day of Prayer last May was followed by the Miracle of Dunkirk. (Daily Mail,  January 1st, 1941.)
