Reuters has an interesting article about a baron whom attempted to assassinate Adolf Hitler in July of 1944. The article outlines some of the lametations of Philipp von Boeselager and the conditions in which the German National Workers Party came to power.

"I call on young people to get politically involved, to feel responsible for their country. If that's not happening and if someone like (Nazi propaganda minister Joseph) Goebbels appeared today -- as millions are unemployed -- I would be very scared."

The article outlines the plan that a group of over 100 Germans planned to kill the leader of the Third Reich.
