When did the Nazis begin their ''euthanasia program''?
What?! The Nazis did not begin any euthanasia program. They did medical experiments on living people, and tortured and murdered many others. But there was no euthanasia program.There's some misunderstanding here. (It doesn't look to me as if the questioner is using the word euthanasia as a synonym for the Holocaust). The Nazis did all of the above. There was a Nazi euthanasia programme in addition to the main Holocaust and the medical experiments. It was directed against certain categories of mentally and physically incurable "Aryans" and was in full swing from about October 1939- September 1941, when it was drastically cut back following protests (which were later joined by Roman Catholics). It was codenamed the T4 Programme (or Action) and some historians, such as Ian Kershaw, have suggested that the scaling back of this programme left expert killers available for the Holocaust.Clarification:The Nazis exterminated people against their will. The Nazis did the choosing and chose who they thought shouldn't be allowed to live. Euthanasia as discussed today is the termination life as a humane act.The word euthanasia in your question should be highlighted in quotation marks since Nazi killing was anything but humane. It was a systematic extermination of less than perfect human beings.Please see the links below for more information.
