>A handwritten memo from Himmler's speech on 26 January 1944 in Posen to Generals of fighting troops reads:

>Largest stabilisation in the General Governement (Poland) since the solution to the Jewish question. – Race war. Total solution. Not allowing avengers to rise against our children.

>May 24 1944 speech:

>Another question which was decisive for the inner security of the Reich and Europe, was the Jewish question. It was uncompromisingly solved after orders and rational recognition. I believe, gentlemen, that you know me well enough to know that I am not a bloodthirsty person; I am not a man who takes pleasure or joy when something rough must be done. However on the other hand, I have such good nerves and such a developed sense of duty – I can say that much for myself – that when I recognise something as necessary I can implement it without compromise. I have not considered myself entitled – this concerns especially the Jewish women and children – to allow the children to grow into the avengers who will then murder our children and our grandchildren. That would have been cowardly. Consequently the question was uncompromisingly resolved.
