Fritz Grobba (born Arthur Borg July 18, 1886 in Gartz; died September 2, 1973 in Bonn) was a German diplomat who worked in the Near and Middle East since 1913.
'''Fritz Konrad Ferdinand Grobba''' (July 18, 1886 - February 9, 1973) was a [[German]] orientalist and diplomat. Remembered for the roles he played in the mission of [[Nazi]] Germany in the [[Middle East]] in the years between the world wars and in the years of [[World War II]]. He is particularly remembered for his influence on the Rashid Ali al-Khilani rebellion and the wild [[anti-Semitic]] incitement that preceded the rebellion, which was among the causes of the Farhud riots in which over 1,000 Jews lost their lives, and for his collaboration with the Jerusalem [[Grand Mufti]] Haj Amin al-Husseini during and after the rebellion.<ref>
