The following photos are about a big exhibition in Berlin in 2007 which was not mentioned in the medias although there was good and multiple information and invitation to all regional and national medias. Invited were the editorial teams of newspapers, magazines, radio & TV, but silence again. The Deutsche Historische Museum in Berlin was asked for patronage but there was no answer. The jewish museum, being asked before gave quick and friendly answer but gives support only for jewish projects.
On the other hand the help of the police was neccesary in the forefield and during the 12 days of the exhibition as the risk of attacs from right and left was estimated as too high. Here again: Thank you. You did a good job!

Massmurder in the program of euthanasia in the hospitals for the mental ill (with N2O = Distickstoffmonoxyd - in German: laughing gas)
In the Tiergartenstreet 4 ("T4") in Berlin the killing of the mental ill was organized. "In the middlepoint of the first systematical NS-massmurder" there was the definition of the oeconomical "usefullness of people". The Germans before were devided into "associals", "bearables", "everages" and "high values". The "Endlösung of the question of institutions" was spoken about in 1938 with all regional head-departements. With "institutions were ment the six death-camps of Grafeneck, Brandenburg, Bernburg, Hadamar, Hartheim und Pirna". The "Ermächtigung" of Hitler is dated from the first of september in 1938. There was no command. In August 1941 the planned aim was reached nearly perfect with 70.273 victims. It was intended to save "costs, beds in hospitals, manpower in hospitals & nursing homes and food". The statistician Brandt counted "1942 the savings in food, living-rooms, coats and shirts for ten years - up to 1951" and spoke about "880 million Reichsmark". "Without remarkable problems the action "T4" was able to cooperate with the ministry of justice and all public institutions inclusive the medical associations, health insurance companies, insurances in case of death and cemetery administrations." Beside very few exceptions "in the German administration there was not even a tiny resistance." About the people the organizers of murder could tell on 22th of April 1941 "to the presidents of the higher regional courts and the public general prosecuters the following ratio of agreement: in 80 % the family was in agreement with the killing of their ill family-members, 10% were in protest, 10 % were indifferent". The action"T4" gave know how and man-power for the later built extermination-camps and the experiance "that the killing of ten thousands of helpless people is possible with the German administration at any time." "This experiance was basical for the organization of the "final solution" concerning the the Jews."
