What is interesting is the fact that the trians were still being commendered and used for the holocaust when they were urgently needed to move troops and equpment by the armed services.
If not halting the killings in the camps, they would certainly have slowed them down. If the Jews could not be transported to the camps then they would have to have had to have been left in the ghettos. OK, so the conditions there were terrible, and the Germans would have carried on killing them. But it would have been slower, and the bombings wouldn't have affected the Allied war effort that much. So the due process of liberation may have caught up and over run the Jews in the ghettos rather than camps, or in the pits. |
I do agree that most of what you say is plausible however the commandeering of rail stock and the troops involved showed that they would stop at nothing to achieve their goal of obliteration of the Jewish race.
The "safe haven" that was the ghetto would have eventually disappeared and corralling and mass slaughter would have eventually occurred.
These killers were men & women who ate drank and slept the final solution and had no limitations placed on their actions.
