Nazi-Era - Nazis Night Of The Long Knives
In the night of June 30 to July 1, 1934, Adolf Hitler had his SA chief of staff and longtime party friend Ernst Röhm and other high-ranking SA leaders arrested and murdered in a prepared action. National Socialist propaganda justified the murders with the conspiracy theory that a putsch by the SA under Röhm was imminent. Around 200 other political opponents, critics and competitors became victims of the "wave of purges" in connection with the "Röhm putsch". The background to the assassination action were Nazi internal ideological differences and power-political tensions between the SA and parts of the NSDAP.
