Ice, you are terrible (not really, you will see). The discussion widens and widens out of nothing. Or maybe it is me.

The Nuremberg race laws are only coincidentally from Nuremberg, but they occured long before the Nuremberg trials. The Nuremberg race laws were those exact written definitions of who was a Jew, and who not. They came in as laws to protect Aryanity. Nazi anti-Semitism relied on a racial base, not on a religious base. The commentator of these laws was Dr. Globke, who played the gray eminence in post-war Western Germany's Chancellors office (serving chancellor Adenauer). Inform yourself from the internet for more specific information on the NRL.
The Nuremberg coincidence is not totally coincidental, but this remains for further studies...

Apart from this point: what is your definition of 'sensory input'? Is it sensory input if I randomly ask a person for his passport, look to the first page and see a stamp 'Jew' ? Or is that an act of bureaucracy? For up to now you seemed to claim that it is needed to spontaneously and clearly see, and from far away, just when a person enters your shooting range, whether he/she should be terrorised or not.
(I exaggerated your point to make my objection more understandable.) That is not the way things go. You have to assume that the executive forces of the terrorist states have a serious will to make discrimination work.

With the question what it is that makes Jews (Albanians, blacks, whites, Germans, the rich, the poor, the educated people, the Gypsies, aliens, women) hateable of course you open a totally new field, even if you want that seen restricted to Jews. I do not know any such characteristics and oppose the idea there were some. My thought on that is that it is less needed that something about the alleged scapegoat is hateable, than that you have some people that are willing to hate to forget about their own troubles. Once this condition is reached, you can define somebody or something even on very unlikely terms.

I would be interested in a more detailed description of what you say here: During that trial, it was exposed that the discerning sensory input that must have occurred on the part of the Nazis, took place prior to the
mass killings of Jews.
What sensory input? How much earlier? Exposed how?
