Hitler’s Steps After He is Established Stage Three: Hitler’s Steps After He is Established 1938-1939: http://www.gendercide.org/case_jews.html Kristallnacht : A major marker on the road to the holocaust against the Jews was the Kristallnacht ("Night of Broken Glass") on November 9-10, 1938, when Hitler's thugs targeted Jewish citizens and property for largescale violence and destruction. According to Yehuda Bauer, the Kristallnacht was accompanied by a gender-selective mass roundup: the Nazis "arrested and sent to concentration camps some 30,000 Jewish men at least." As of 1938 the decision was to “get rid of the Jews.” Until 1942, however, there was as of yet no decision on when or how. As a campaign of full-blown mass execution, the gendercide against Jewish males (1933-1941) marked an important, if temporary, "onset phase" of the holocaust in Germany and the occupied eastern territories (including, after August 1941, the Balkans).

From 1939 onwards, Jews were rounded up. They were forced to move out of their homes. To start off with they were sent to areas in cities designed only for them. These were ghettos Jewish people had: Their property confiscated They were forced to move to new areas Eisengruppen: E isengruppen report stating efficiency of Gas vans; "Since 1941, 97,000 have been processed in the three vehicles in operation without any malfunctions in the vehicles."

The Final Solution Stage Four: The Final Solution 1942: Wannsee Conference On January 20, 1942, fifteen high-ranking Nazi party and German government leaders gathered for an important meeting. They met in a wealthy section of Berlin at a villa by a lake known as Wannsee. Reinhard Heydrich, who was SS chief Heinrich Himmler's head deputy, held the meeting for the purpose of discussing the "final solution to the Jewish question in Europe" with key non-SS government leaders, including the secretaries of the Foreign Ministry and Justice, whose cooperation was needed. The "final solution" was the Nazis' code name for the deliberate, carefully planned destruction, or genocide, of all European Jews.
