Here is a speech Himmler made under similar circumstances:

"I shall speak to you here with all frankness of a very serious subject. We shall now discuss it absolutely openly among ourselves, nevertheless we shall never speak of it in public. I mean the evacuation of the Jews, the extermination of the Jewish race.

It is one of those things which is easy to say. 'The Jewish race is to be exterminated,' says every party member. 'That's clear, it's part of our program, elimination of the Jews, extermination, right, we'll do it.'

And then they all come along, the eighty million good Germans, and each one has his 'decent' Jew. 'Of course the others are swine, but this one is a first-class Jew'. Of all those who talk like this, not one has watched, not one has stood up to it.

Most of you know what it means to see a hundred corpses lying together, five hundred, or a thousand. To have gone through this and yet - apart from a few exceptions, examples of human weakness - to have remained decent fellows, this is what has made us hard. This is a glorious page in our history that has never been written and shall never be written..."

I am not comparing Ben Gvir to Himmler.

That would be wrong.

Himmler had to make his speech in secret to his officers, and feared the German people finding out.

And Ben Gvir is not plagued with letters from fellow party members asking clemency for their favourite "decent Palestinian".
