What were AIDS and SARS then?
Kill off a whole race? No. But then again, I disagree Hitler had planned massive deathcamps. Mein Kampf said nothing about deathcamps, simply the removal of Jews from Europe, which he had planned to take over long before.
I highly doubt Madagascar was a smokescreen, since he did indeed work with Zionists about the possibility of deporting Jews to israel, creation of Jewish State, ect. Of course, no one in the world elsewhere would take them, no one ever wants refugees, even the US wouldnt take them.
AIDS and SARS? Now you're really reaching the realms of duh.
As for the extermination of Jews - you agree that no country would take them yet you don't give Hitler the credit for foreseeing this. He would have understood that deportation was impossible. It would never create the Final Solution that he desired. Extermination was the only route that he could take.
Hitler killed the plan off for a Jewish state in the Middle East as soon as it was put forward. That was the whole reason for the formulation of the Madagascar plan.
Madagascar was only in Germany's possession once France had fallen. The Madagascar plan was only put forward as part of a peace plan to pacify Germany's enemies in 1940.
As Great Britain still had control of the shipping lanes it is folly to suggest that a credible plan for deportation to that part of the World was feasible.
Madagascar would only have possibly become an option had Germany won the war. As Hitler didn't wait around long enough for the outcome before gassing Jews I don't understand the logic that you use in your argument.
