"It is of course not mentioned that initially the Nazis simply wanted the Jews to leave Germany."
This is often quoted wrong, and makes it look like Hitler wanted them to survive, just out of Germany.
Hitlers idea in the beginning was to send Jews where they could not survive, to show that they only can survive as a race when they use other races for their benefit. The plan changed several times, where to send them, and ultimatly the plan was to send them beyond Siberia after Germany would have colonized the east. With losing the war and losing the opportunity to let them die in Siberia, and an effective concentration camp system in place the plan was changed to killing all.
- littletimmy 11y agoThis is not true. Wasn't one of the plans to send them all to the United States or the United Kingdom? It was called the Evian conference.
- Throwaway1100 11y agoIt might not be complete, as there were dozens of plans, e.g. the Madagascar Plan[1]. The Evian conference was a conference organized by the United States without Germany[2], so it could not be a argument for a plan of Germany.

- littletimmy 11y agoDude, your own link says this: "Hitler responded to the news of the conference by saying essentially that if the other nations would agree to take the Jews, he would help them leave."
