There still are gaps In Hitler's extraordinary secrecy that surrounds policy to be explained because of the anything concerning the army and because of the nail's drastic and ef fective control of the usual sources of Information. It is difficult to understand the recent army purge unless It Is kept in mind that under nasi Ideology the party is the state and thus any disaffection toward the party con stitutes disaffection toward the state.
