John,

You said what I am thinking much better than I could have.  Your comment about saying Hitler was not trying to kill all the Jews, just enough to making enough living room for the Nazis reminded me of one of the Turkish explanations for what they did to the Armenians:  they were just relocating them.  Of course there were no homes, no food, nothing to sustain life in the desert into which they were driven, and so most died.  Uninteded consequence?  Hardly.
