Of course. He had Jews locked up and terminated in every country he invaded. If he would have been able to invade the US he would have done that same thing here.

No, it is not. (Ex) beyond/outside (Terminus) endpoint/boundary

Exterminate literally means to get rid of. When Orkin exterminates roaches, they use chemicals to keep roaches outside of your house by spraying the boundaries.

I am not trying to say that extermination is not a horrible thing, but you should understand what it actually means.

That is a fact. Except that word exterminate is WIDELY misunderstood today. Language changes, but history does not conform to language changes.

I think i may have asked that wrong....

Do you think his goal was to rid the world of just the Jews, or did he want to get of everyone who wasn't "Aryan"?

It is not my fault that you hate the meaning of the word:

Main Entry:ex·ter·mi·nate Pronunciation: \ik-ˈstər-mə-ˌnāt\ Function:transitive verb Inflected Form(s):ex·ter·mi·nat·ed; ex·ter·mi·nat·ingEtymology:Latin exterminatus, past participle of exterminare, from ex- + terminus boundary — more at
exterminate. (L.) From pp. of L. txterminare, to put or drive beyond bounds.

You can also not say that Hitler's "wish" or "goal" was the entire German Army's goal or wish. We're arguing semantics at this point. I am trying to figure out how killing for fun is somehow better than killing for a reason.

Are you fucking kidding me? You think that the Jews were only put into camps to control them? They weren't there to be eliminated?

Do you believe that you can alter the past by changing a word?

You think the Japanese weren't trying to eliminate all Chinese they could for no reason at all? You claim "control" which is total crap. They don't need to kill tens of millions to control a country that can't fight back.

The killing there wasn't state sponsored, at least not in the amounts that ended up happening. In fact, the Japanese government made it illegal for their soldiers to rape women. But the commanders in the field decided to ignore that and rounded up women to "comfort" their men.

Hitlers rounding up of Jews in every part of Europe that he occupied was State Sponsored. This was his plan before he even went to war.

so when you call the exterminator to your house, they just politely ask the bugs to move on their way??????
