Deporting whole populations to a third country in Africa? Where have I heard that before...

Oh. Yeah. In Timothy Snyder's book "Black Earth: The Holocaust as History and Warning."

Excerpts attached.
Göring said that Hitler would now approach the western powers with a Madagascar plan for the resettlement of Jews. Two weeks after Kristallnacht, Hitler was discussing the deportation of European Jews to Madagascar with confused Polish diplomats. The Poles could not understand how Germans could intend such a com- plicated logistical operation when all they seemed able to organize was chaos in Austria and Ger- many. The problem for those responsible in Berlin was that there was no actual overseas colony to which Jews could be de- ported. For the Germans, the ghet- tos were holding tanks where Jews were concentrated before deporta- tion to some exotic place where nature would take its course. In the overpopulated ghettos, deaths outnumbered births by a factor of ten. Most of the people who died in the first months were Jews who had been deported from the countryside or from other towns

I just feel the need to share how beautiful the sunset was today.
Tree lined snowy street, with pink and purple sky. Winding road along frozen lake shore, backlit by vibrant sunset View of purple sky over frozen lake Lawn chairs overlooking frozen lake, with the sky looking like it was colored in with highlighters.
