THE FOUNDATION FOR THE STUDY OF POLITICAL PSYCHOSIS--Andrew C. Hammer

In war, “dying for one’s country" is conceived as honorable & noble. The Holocaust depicted death at the hands of the nation-state without sugar-coating: suffering, degradation & death stripped of words such as loyalty, honor, nobility and duty.

Hitler speaking in mid-1942: “If I don’t mind sending the pick of the German people into the hell of war without the slightest regret over the spilling of precious German blood, then I naturally also have the right to eliminate millions of an inferior race that multiplies like vermin."

THE LOGIC OF GENOCIDE FOLLOWED FROM THE LOGIC OF WAR.
