We Americans get to know everything about our own government's atrocities (this time perpetrated by the Judicial Branch). How much more accountable we must be. At least we haven't killed millions, like the NAZIs. No. Wait. Whe have killed roughly 40 million innccent, helpless human beings.
Moloch must be happy.
The Germans were not entirely unaware of what the regime was up to - hence the need for propaganda films like "Dasein Ohne Leben", whose themes have been repeated over and over by the likes of Felos and Greer.
However, once the Germans did start to see the effect of the policy, you are correct, they created a furore which forced the regime to be more quiet about the policy.

By the time the Nazis started in on the Jews, Gypsies, etc. they had already starved to death about 500,000 "defective." So today we have made a beginning it would seem.
