you may want to study up on this. The antisemitic movement did NOT start in 1939. It was seeded long before that. Also, your question is loaded. You are leaving out the fact that most Germans knew what was happening to Jews. It was no secret.

Also, you ask which part of the Bible overrules them asking this question. Very simple. The commandment to not Kill, not commit murder. You are trying to look at the end action as separate from the first action. If you set out to gather information with the intent of harming someone else it is called plotting to kill, or conspiracy to kill. Not only is this against the intended law given by God, but it is against the man made laws in most country's. You are trying to assume that God's law is the same as mans. God gave laws that were intended to judge the heart of the persons involved. The condition of your heart is what determines your actions. The heart of a person who commit malicious murder is not the same as a person who kills to defend his life from the same person. The heart of a person who lies to gain is not the same as the heart of a person who lies to protect as he is commanded to value life.
