Γραμμή 9:
The evacuation of European Jewry to the island of Madagascar was not a new concept. [[Henry Hamilton Beamish]], [[Arnold Leese]], [[Lord Moyne]], German scholar [[Paul de Lagarde]] and the British, French, and Polish governments had all contemplated the idea.<ref name="contemplation"/> Nazi Germany seized upon it, and in May 1940, in his ''Reflections on the Treatment of Peoples of Alien Races in the East'', [[Heinrich Himmler]] declared: "I hope that the concept of Jews will be completely extinguished through the possibility of a large emigration of all Jews to Africa or some other colony."
 
Although some discussion of this plan had been brought forward from 1938 by other well-known Nazi ideologues, such as [[Julius Streicher]], [[Hermann Göring]], and [[Joachim von Ribbentrop]], it was not until June 1940 that the plan was actually set in motion. Victory in France being imminent, it was clear that all French colonies would soon come under German control, and the Madagascar Plan could become reality. It was also felt that a potential peace treaty with Great Britain, which in a few weeks' time was about to experience German aerial bombardment in the [[Battle of Britain]] and whom the Germans fully expected to capitulate as quickly as the French, would put the British navy at Germany's disposal for use in the evacuationevaculation.
