I tried to give it a watch, not sure what point he is getting at other than it being a "political thing".

But ive mentioned this before, germany just happens to have some of the oldest libraries in the world.

Yes, Germany is home to some of the oldest libraries and remnants of libraries, reflecting a very long history of text preservation, ranging from Roman antiquity to the Middle Ages.

Herzog August Library (Wolfenbüttel): Founded in 1572, the Herzog August Library is one of the oldest libraries in the world to have survived to the present day without major losses to its collection. It was once considered the "eighth wonder of the world" and houses roughly 1 million volumes, with 350,000 dating from the 15th to 18th centuries.

Liberei (Braunschweig): Completed around 1413–1422, the Liberei is recognized as one of the oldest surviving buildings in Germany built specifically to be a library.

Kirchenbibliothek St. Marien Barth: Located near the Baltic Sea, this is one of the oldest parish libraries in Germany, with references dating back to a 1398 donation record. It is also the oldest German library remaining in its original location.

Marienbibliothek (Halle/Saale): Founded in 1552, this is one of the oldest and largest Protestant ecclesiastical libraries in Germany, holding a collection of 30,000 volumes, including Luther Bibles.

Other Notable Historic German Libraries:

Bavarian State Library (Munich): Collections began in the mid-16th century, and it now houses over 10 million books.

Duchess Anna Amalia Library (Weimar): Established in 1691, this library is a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its Rococo hall and vast collection of classical literature.

What are the chances that the book burnings were just cover for what he was really doing.

Imagine the knowledge contained in those places, but I guess after hitler if there was anything really good, its gone now. Worth mentioning alot of ufo records were in germany as well.

Historical records indicate that what are now interpreted as UFO sightings have been reported in German-speaking lands for centuries, long before the modern era of ufology. These accounts, often recorded in medieval and early modern broadsheets, described "celestial phenomena," "fiery shields," or "aerial battles".
