		by Keith Halderman on July 5, 2006 at 10:33 AM Admiral Wilheim Canaris the most influential, resourceful, and powerful member of the anti-Hitler faction was specifically motivated to some degree by what was happening to the Jews.
		Canaris was shocked.” They also relate that “The Nuremburg Trials reveal Canaris's strenuous efforts in trying to put a stop to the crimes of war and genocide committed in Russia by Reinhard Heydrich's Einsatzgruppen forces.
		It is also revealed that Canaris prevented the killing of captured French officers in Tunisia just as he saved hundreds of Jews during the war.” I think the idea that a faction replacing Hitler would have continued the costly militarily useless policy of genocide is absurd.
