Talk:Operation Reinhard

[I find this confusing? Was Operation Reinhard the assassination plot? Or was it the death camps? Or something else?]
I hope it is more clear now.

I am not happy with Korpo's conclusion: utilising gas for killing people to abstract the act of killing, goes for the Euthanasia programm (T-4) as well. But that already was done over two years before "Operation Reinhardt". T-4 was clearly the prototype for "Reinhardt", they developed the technology of stationary gas chambers by using carbonmonoxide gas from industrial pressure bottles, they transfered almost all of their male personnell including all commanders to the Reinhardt camps, for economic and transport reasons they adapted their killing method to the situation in the East by choosing petrol (not Diesel) engines of big lorries or tanks to generate the CO gas. If that is so (any scholar known who would object?), are we really entitled to talk about "Aktion Reinhardt" as "the start of an industrialized mass murder formerly not known to mankind"? P.

Where and when did operation Reinhard use Zyklon B? I do not believe it. Can somebody please provide references within in a week. Otherwise I will remove it. Andries 10:32, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
The former version of this article was rank with casual discourse and misplaced information. Therefore, I have redone most of the text. Someone should go over the information and make sure that nothing important is missing, as I removed a lot of things that just didn't make sense. - Barfooz 08:29, 13 May 2005 (UTC)
