“The annihilation of six million Jews, carried out by the German state under Adolf Hitler” and referring to the final solution "the German dictatorship involved and engaged the entire apparatus of the German state.” The War Against the Jews. Lucy Dawidowicz . Pages xxxv -xxxvii

Every arm of Germany's bureaucracy was involved in the logistics of the mass murder, turning the country into what one Holocaust scholar has called "a genocidal state."

The goal of annihilation called for participation by every arm of government. The policy of extermination involved every level of German society and marshaled the entire apparatus of the German bureaucracy. - Berenbaum

       Why not here as well, they are good reading just the tip of the ice berg really:

   * James_F> Redux> Apparently I'd have "influence" in my other votes.

Which, to be fair, is entirely correct. I have lots and lots of influence with the rest of the Committee. That's because, err, this is my system wot I designed. :-)

   * <bastique|busy> The nutshell is Giano. Whatever else he may

be...he's friends with certain other administrators

   * <bastique|busy> close friends
   * <Tony_Sidaway> James_F, well those people are idiots. So it all works out :)
   * <James_F> Tony_Sidaway> I never, ever actually would call someone an

idiot on-wiki. It's far too impersonal. If I was to make personal attacks, I would do them on IRC (which, ahem, I control) or e-mail (both of which, ahem, I've ruled aren't under the Committee's jurisdiction).

   * <Phil_Boswell> bastique|busy: judging by the tone of past

conversations on Bishonen's talk-page, very VERY close friends (assuming my memory isn't playing some cruel trick on me)

   * <Tony_Sidaway> I've taken the unusual step of clearing my watchlist.

<James_F> Well. Doing Foundation- and Wikimania-related stuff, which is about the same.

   * <Tony_Sidaway> The purpose of this arbitration is to establish the

autonomy of the bureaucrats. All the rest us just window dressing.
