Hans von Dohnanyi married Dietrich Bonhoeffer‘s sister, Christine. In 1939, after Germany invaded Poland, Dohnanyi began to tell Dietrich things that he had not known before: horrors that Hitler had unleashed on humanity.
This impacted Bonhoeffer.
He now believed that the principal goal was to remove Hitler from power!
(Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy by Eric Metaxas, 350-351).
