Reply-To: kmcvay@oneb.almanac.bc.ca Followup-To: soc.history Organization: The Old Frog's Almanac, Vancouver Island, CANADA Keywords: Globocnik,Goebbels File: reinhard goebbels.01 Last-modified: 93/02/26 "In an entry in Goebbels' Diary regarding the beginning of Operation Reinhard, ten days after the killings started in Belzec, on March 27, 1942, he wrote: Beginning with Lublin, the Jews in the General Government are now being evacuated eastward. The procedure is a pretty barbaric one and not to be described here more definitely. Not much will remain of the Jews. On the whole it can be said about 60 percent of them will have to be liquidated whereas only about 40 percent can be used for forced labor. The former Gauleiter of Vienna [Globocnik], who is to carry this measure through, is doing it with considerable circumspection and according to a method that does not attract too much attention. Fortunately, a whole series of possibilities presents itself for us in wartime that would be denied us in peacetime. We shall have to profit by this. The ghettos that will be emptied in the streets of the General Government will now be refilled with Jews thrown out of the Reich. This process is to be repeated from time to time." <1> <1> The Goebbels Diaries, Louis P. Lochner, ed., New York, 1948, pp. 175-176, as quoted in...
