What did Müller have to say about Hitler and the Jews?
He [Hitler] didn’t like Jews, but he was an intellectual anti-Semite. He approached the Jewish question intellectually. Müller was neutral on the subject; he didn’t care. And he said that the Gestapo spent a lot of time chasing Jews around when the time could have been better spent on other things. Was Müller the highest ranking man in intelligence in Nazi Germany with the exception of Admiral Walter Canaris? He was the head of the secret police, which I have pointed out was a state organization and not a party organization. He went from that into the Gestapo in 1934-35. He came to Berlin and was given different sections to run. When Canaris started to go down the drain, Müller acquired most of his duties and his files; certainly all counterintelligence activities. Later as the war progressed, he ran the 20th of July Commission. Toward the end of the war he was in charge of all intelligence. It was phenomenal how much he controlled. He had the files of all the intelligence organization
