Given the opportunity, man will seek to dominate and destroy that which he does not understand.
Hitler was a proponent of euthanasia, and his Ultimate Solution was to exterminate any "deviation" from his considered norm. In his opinion, those who were born with birth defects, those whose morals did not match his own, or those who politically opposed him, were candidates for death. Hitler's solution was ethnic cleansing at the highest level; given that he controlled half of Europe, he was able to exterminate all those groups and was well on his way to applying the same standards to anyone who was not blue eyed, blond, Lutheran and German.

How much damage did the holocaust cause?
There is no real way of estimating that. Where the line between war damage and damage due to the Holocaust is would be hard to tell. There have been numerous attempts to estimate how much wealth was stolen in the Holocaust, but there are problems with that also. The greatest damage was of course the human damage, the six million murder victims and the may hundred thousand survivors many of who never recovered.

What does the holocaust tell us about human nature?
The Holocaust tells us much about human nature, not only about the nature of the victims, but that of the perpetrators and of the bystanders and those who enabled it. This was one of the things that the Germans took great interest in; as they wanted to control the victims with as little agitation and trouble as possible. For example at the death camps they would have flowers and trees around the execution sites to make them seem tranquil and calming, they would use words and promises of rewards for peaceful co-operation. In the camps, the ghettos and in transit they instigated a policy of group punishment, which meant that the people within the groups would keep others in order so that they would not all be punished. There were many more methods employed, i will try to give a more detailed answer in time. Of the perpetrators one can see how power corrupts and how given the freedom to do to others anything one wanted; people would do the most nasty things. One can see that people rationalise and can explain away to themselves why they are doing these things and believe that they are doing a good thing. Of the bystanders it is easy to see how people are primarily concerned with their own selves and that it is a leap to help others, especially if it as effort to themselves.
