In a speech to delegates at the 37th World Zionist Congress in Jerusalem in 2015, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu drew a great deal of criticism after claiming that Hitler's original intentions were solely to expel the Jews, saying the Mufti of Jerusalem changed his mind.
According to Netanyahu's speech, the Fuhrer changed his mind at the insistence of the Palestinian leader at the time, Jerusalem Mufti Haj Amin al-Husseini, who argued that the expulsion of the Jews would result in their arrival en masse to Palestine, which at the time was under British Mandatory rule.
