Summary
This article talks about the Nazis plan to get rid of the Jews. This plan was called the Final Solution. It also gives information about the ways they killed the Jews.
Main Evidence
The “Final Solution” was the term that Nazis used when talking about the full annihilation of the Jews.
After the June 1941 German invasion of the Soviet Union, SS and police units (acting as mobile killing units) began massive killing operations aimed at entire Jewish communities. By autumn 1941, the SS and police introduced mobile gas vans. These paneled trucks had exhaust pipes reconfigured to pump poisonous carbon monoxide gas into sealed spaces, killing those locked within. They were designed to complement ongoing shooting operations.

Fallacy
None

Response
Reading about how Hitler and the Nazis killed the Jews and how many he killed at once and altogether makes me sick to think about.

Source Quality
This was a good source to use because it gave good information about the Final Solution and what they did to kill Jews in a mass group. I would suggest this source to other people because it was helpful.
