    Not really; Generalplan Ost was far, far more brutal even from its conception. While the horrific industrialized efficiency of the camps and gas chambers weren’t fully fleshed out yet the Nazis included the idea of exterminating undesirables through mass killings, working them to death, and starving them to death from the start.

      Um, before that, they tried to exile them to Europe and north America. What we are seeing is actually a compression of the previous timeline.

        There actually was a plan to exile them to Madagascar but since this wasn’t under German control at the time (kinda like Canada isn’t under Israel’s control) that didn’t work out.

      Isn’t Israel already starving the local population of Gaza? They are also bombing them, not to forget that they do not have access to drinking water.
