the greatest weapon of the Holocaust was indifference, this was used to great effect: over the previous eight years the Nazis had done many morally dubious things to the Jews, combined with an actual physical attack during Kristalnacht. They noticed that niether domestically nor internationally was anything done in response; there were no popular protests, no issue raised within the League of Nations, no type of sanctions. With the safety of this knowledge the Nazis could employ any other weapons that they wanted.
It would be easy to say that hate was one of them, but it was closer to fear. The Nazis would make the people afraid that the Jews were a danger to them, their families and their 'way of life'. With this people were happy to see the Jews dissapear from sight. Once out of sight the Nazis could do whatever they wanted.
