Hitlers Final Solution

• In the course of the final solution the Jews are
  to be sent in a suitable manner and under
  appropriate direction to do labor in the east.
  Separated by sexes, those Jews able to work will
  be led in large labor columns into these areas
  while building roads. In the process, large
  numbers will undoubtedly drop away through
  natural attrition. The final reminder that
  conceivable will still be around and that
  undoubtedly constitutes the sturdiest segment
  will have to be dealt with accordingly as it
  represents a natural selection which, when left
  at liberty, has to be seen as a germ cell of new
  Jewish development.
