Nevertheless, despite Hitler's personal appeal, direct support for his genocidal projects was never high ..... Even among Nazi party members, in 1938 over 60% "expressed downright indignation at the outrages" carried out against Jews, while 5% considered that "physical violence against Jews was justified because 'terror must be met with terror'". In the Fall of 1942, 5% of Nazi Party members approved of the shipment of Jews to "labor camps", while 70% registered indifference, and the rest "showed signs of concern for the Jews." Among the general population, support for the Holocaust would surely have been still less.
