"Concurrent with the start-up of the euthanasia exterminations, Hitler
authorized Himmler to establish a Race and Resettlement Office under the
aigis of the SS. It was the Race and Resettlement Office that was to be
responsible for the `racial' purification of the Reich and the establishment
of a Nordic empire. On October 17, 1939, Keitel summoned the victorious
Wehrmacht generals for a lecture from the Fu"hrer, who ranted: `The
increased severity of the racial struggle permits of no legal restrictions.
Jews, Poles, and similar trash are to be cleared from the old and new Reich
territories.' Eigh million Poles and 800,000 Jews were to be transported
from the annexed portion of Poland into the government-general, and replaced
by ethnic Germans repatriated from the Baltic lands, the Balkans, Russia,
and the Italian Tyrol -- even though, in large part, these Germans had
emigrated generations before.

To `render harmless' the Polish intelligensia, political and religious
leaders, Jews, and anyone else who might, theoretically, rally an
opposition, Heydrich established SS Einsatzgruppen (action groups). The
Einsatzgruppen rampaged over the land, terrorizing and killing. Selections
for execution were haphazard. Sometimes the commandos erred and included
ethnic Germans whom they mistook for Jews. Shootings were carried out
publicly to heighten the climate of fear. A Werhmacht intelligence officer
reported: `Arrests were almost always accompanied by looting. Evacuations
were carried out and blocks of houses were cleared at random, the
inhabitants loaded into lorries at night, then taken to concentration camps.
Actions against the Jews were carried out with the most serious excesses. A
number of Jews were driven into a synagogue, where they had to crawl,
singing, between the benches. Forced to take down their trousers, they were
continously whipped by the SS men on their bare behinds. A Jew who out of
fright dirtied himself was forced to smear the excrement onto the faces of
the other Jews.

`After about fifty Jews, who had been used during the day to repair a
bridge, finished their work in the evening, two SS men drove them into a
synagogue and shot them all without any reason.'<a>

The effectiveness of these Einsatzgruppen can be determined from the

Today I can confirm that our objective, to solve the Jewish problem for
Lithuania, has been achieved by EK 3. In Lithuania there are no more
Jews, apart from Jewish workers and their families.

.....

The distance between from the assembly point to the graves was on average
4 to 5 Km.

.....


I consider the Jewish action more or less terminated as far as
Einsatzkommando 3 is concerned. Those working Jews and Jewesses still
available are needed urgently and I can envisage that after the winter
this workforce will be required even more urgently. I am of the view
that the strelization programme of the male worker Jews should be
started immediately so that reproduction is prevented. If despite
sterlization a Jewess becomes pregnant she will be liquidated.
