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.[1][2] [3]
