It's typical propaganda, culminating with the bold claim that Krystalnacht in 1938 was orchestrated by Hitler.
The truth (and Goebbels' diaries make this very clear) is that Goebbels made an inflamatory speech and the German crowd went on a rampage, destroying Jewish stores and killing 30 or so Jews. Hitler was furious (since the events were bad PR -- you have to remember that Nazi Germany was not seen as an evil regime in the West back then) and considered sacking
Goebbels.
