      Fun Hitler fact (as if there is such a thing): the phrase “Night of the Long Knives” was coined by Hitler himself in a speech given shortly after the event, although he used the phrase to describe what Ernst Rohm had allegedly been planning himself. The media instead attached the phrase to Hitler’s actions, much against his wishes.
