Ranting about the untermensch to show how much I’m not a Nazi…
If you really think Nazis are subhuman, you’re not going to be prepared to do what needs to be done when the time comes. These are human people. They laugh, they cry, they have moms and dads and brothers and sisters and husbands and friends. They look just like you or me, you bump elbows with them in the grocery store. You’ve shaken their hands, made small talk with them, and laughed at their jokes.
You have completely missed my point. If you insist on deluding yourself that your enemies aren’t human, you will be surprised by the reality that they are.
Quit trying to dehumanize your opponents. Not only for the reason that I keep reiterating, that it is bad strategically, but it is also ethically abhorrent.

None of that changes what must be done.
