But in the Holocaust, millions of people were kidnapped, worked to death, gassed and burned in a mechanical, emotionless fashion, like things on a production line. This was not the work of some men who had been driven mad by battle, everything was calculated on paper first, all the logistics, transport, profits made.
true - and that is why it is so unthinkably horrific.
