Not true. Those who were convicted (and later executed) of firebombing the Reichstag were Communist Jews. Also, most of the leaders of the Communist Party were Jews. And as I'm sure you know, the Communists were the Nazis worst enemy. So indeed, the inference can be made that the Jews were terrorists and an enemy of Nazi Germany.
We know many years later that the Reichstag Fire was actually set by the Nazis themselves and only blamed on the Jews. But at the time, any suggestion such as that would have branded you a "conspiracy theorist". After all, why would a government firebomb their own capital building??
So it is very logical that such a debate would have been carried out by common level-headed German citizens at the time.
