“If we bear all this suffering and if there are still Jews left, when it is over, then Jews, instead of being doomed, will be held up as an example.”

"Sir Francis Galton first coined the term “eugenics” in 1883. Put simply, eugenics means “well-born.” Initially Galton focused on positive eugenics, encouraging healthy, capable people of above-average intelligence to bear more children, with the idea of building an “improved” human race. Some followers of Galton combined his emphasis on ancestral traits with Gregor Mendel’s research on patterns of inheritance, in an attempt to explain the generational transmission of genetic traits in human beings."

“Eugenics,” says Professor Irving Fisher,
“stands against the forces which work for racial deterioration, and for improvement and vigor, intelligence and moral fiber of the human race. It represents the highest form of patriotism and humanitarianism, while at the same time it offers immediate advantages to ourselves and to our children. By eugenic measures, for instance, our burden of taxes can be reduced by decreasing the number of degenerates, delinquents and defectives supported in public institutions; such measures will also increase safeguards against crimes committed against our persons or our property.” |

answer to the Jewish Question
"How to get rid of the Jews was a question answered by Adolf Hitler. His answer was to murder
Jews throughout Europe along with other races that were believed to be
sub-humans. This answer was called the “Final Solution,” a solution that
started in the summer of 1941 and was believed to answer the “Jewish Question”
and create an end to the Jews. "

What was the nazi final solution?
"The Nazis frequently used euphemistic language to disguise the true nature of their crimes. They used the term “Final Solution” to refer to their plan to annihilate the Jewish people. It is not known when the
leaders of Nazi Germany definitively decided to implement the "Final Solution." The genocide, or mass destruction, of the Jews was the
culmination of a decade of increasingly severe discriminatory measures."

people targeted in the solution
"While the Jews were the primary target, there were many other ethnic, secular,
religious, and national groups that suffered during the Holocaust, including
Poles, Czechs, Greeks, Gypsies, Serbs, Ukranians, and Russians, as well as
homosexuals, mentally and physically handicapped persons, trade unionists,
prisoners of war, Jehovah's Witnesses, and uncounted others. All were targeted
