Sure there were good Germans. No need for a straw man here. The argument that 6 million Jews were not killed because they didn't have the infrastructure in place to kill them is nuts. If memory serves me, more than 50 million people perished in WWII, many of them civilians.

Many of the 6 million Jews killed were killed in the ovens. Many of the 6 million were killed by firing squad into mass graves. Sometimes they made the Jews crawl down into the hole on top of their dead comrades before they shot them. Some were gassed with poisons.

As for conserving gas...because of shortages...that's baloney. The Germans had all the petroleum they wanted...and they bought it from Standard Oil...who supplied them from South America. Now if petrol was in short supply they burned up an awful lot of it digging mass graves as well.
