The Nazis were ready to make an agreement with the Jewish agency for Palestine to get rid of Jews in Germany
The 'Haavara Agreements'
In August 1933 the Jewish Agency for Palestine concluded a series of agreements with the German Economics Ministry
The agreement stated that the Jews were to put money into a Jewish trust company, and would receive half of this money in Palestine pounds after moving
The other half would be used to buy German goods, hence benefiting the German economy
Normally, Jews were prohibited from taking their savings with them, but the Nazis were willing to bend their rules
Hitler made it seem like Britain was keeping Jews out of Palestine, whereas Germany was helping them go
The Madagascar Plan
Between 1938 and 1940, the Nazis wanted to create a Jewish reservation in Madagascar

The location of the island meant that the British could make the operation impossible during the war
Hitler and Himmler could not guarantee that they would defeat France either, Madagascar was under French control
