What was the effect of the holocaust on the German economy?
the two concepts are not reconcilable. Here is an excerpt from just one small piece of the acts that comprised the holocaust: ‘In 1943, SS officer Ernst Gobel was in charge of a group of mass executions, also on the Eastern Front: ‘The victims were shot by the firing-squad with carbines, mostly with shots in the back of the head. . . . Meanwhile [a] Rottenführer . . . shot the [small] children with a pistol. . . . He got hold of the children by the hair, lifted them up from the ground, shot them through the back of their heads and threw them into the grave’ this is the larger picture By genocide, the murder of hostages, reprisal raids, forced labor, “euthanasia,” starvation, exposure, medical experiments, and terror bombings, and in the concentration and death camps, the Nazis murdered from 15,003,000 to 31,595,000 people, most likely 20,946,000 men, women, handicapped, aged, sick, prisoners of war, forced laborers, camp inmates, critics, homosexuals, Jews, Slavs, Serbs, Germans, Czech
The holocaust transformed Germany from the most civilized country to the most depraved. That’s what happens when things get out of control politically. I have found that the new Germany has great promise. I speak the language and enjoy being there. It is characteristic of ‘alles in ordnung,’ everything in control. They seem to have a better way for everything. Germany could be the world example for the future. It is important for Germany to avoid bad associations, like the terrorists. With enough monetary incentives the Germans can design and fabricate whatever the ragheads want, but that could spell disaster in the free world. They should focus on meeting the aims of civilized society and becoming the torch bearer of the future.
