Re: M for Murder
[ QUOTE ]
If it's true that the purpose of keeping the prisoners was mainly to get free labor out of them, then the purpose of the camps was not to kill them.

That wasn't the sole purpose and many camps had several functions. Almost all (if not all) were designed to dispose of the inhabitants when they were no longer useful at the whim of a few men.

If you kill someone without that being your intention then you are not guilty of first degree murder.
[/ QUOTE ]
Intentionally putting someone in a situation from which there is slim to no hope of escape/life and often times being directly responsible for the death is first degree murder. And even if you don't believe they're first degree, the sheer number and methods of people being killed wipe out any mitigation of guilt from the murders not being first degree.

The only point worth debating, and the crux of it all, is what really happened at the camps, what were the Nazis' genuine intentions etc.
[/ QUOTE ]
Then please, debate. What were the Nazis' intentions?
