And the Crooked Shall Be Made Straight

This book is an attack on, and a definitive devastating criticism of Dr. Arendt's trial report. Dr. Robinson turns the pages of Dr. Arendt's book with the reader, and proves that the Eichmann she there presented was in fact cunning and powerful, ready even to go beyond what Hitler himself had ordered.

Hannah Arendt`s account of Adolf Eichmann`s background and character, his authority and activities, his attitude toward his work, and the functioning of his conscience - in her book titled Eichmann in Jerusalem - potrays him as a powerless product of a totalitarian system which could corrupt any `average person` with an `innate repugnance toward crime` (pp. 87-88). The present chapter reveals in detail how Miss Arendt has ignored evidence concerning Eichmann, and how in so doing she ends up with a portrait of the man in no way resembling reality.
