I wrote yesterday (go to the bottom of the page) about OBEDIENCE UNTO DEATH, linking the fate of the Holocaust victim to the deaths of German soldiers in the Second World War. I reviewed my notes and realize that Hitler said this better and more clearly--in the winter of 1941-42--as the Holocaust already was in full swing

"Nature is cruel.  Therefore we too may be cruel.  If I don't mind sending the pick of the German people into the hell of war without regret for the shedding of valuable German blood, then I have naturally the right to destroy millions of men of inferior races who increase like vermin." From Never to Forget: the Jews of the Holocaust (1991). Milton Meltzer (p. 73).

Hitler clearly states that if he has no regret about killing his own soldiers (sending them to die in battle), then naturally he also has the right to kill millions of Jews. The Holocaust was a dependent variable following as a function of the independent variable: sacrificing (killing) one's own soldiers. Hitler understood the Holocaust better than most historians.
