The German "perspective" was that the Jews were in the way of stopping Bolshevism. If we are simply going to trade crazed ideological or nationalist perspectives, there's not much point debating because there is no common frame of reference.
Reality is not a competition between subjective "perspectives." The sort of arguments pro-warriors make these days are like Kantianism gone haywire.
As for good and evil, there is a fundamental error almost everyone on earth who believe that there is a difference between good and evil make. There is a sort of irrational, subterranean belief that if your enemy is "evil", that is sufficient to make you "good" regardless of what you are actually doing. This belief is the source of nearly every war in modern times. All one has to do to be given a blank check to practice limitless evil with the approval of one's own conscience is to prove that one's enemy is evil.
Now that is a fairly good moral-philosophical-political racket, and the masses usually do fall for it. Anyone capable of genuine reflection does not.
