Order To Starve!


On November 30, 1942, the Bavarian State Minister of the Interior, SA Obergruppenführer Paul Giesler ...



... the so-called "starvation decree" to all lines of psychiatric facilities in Bavaria.

The decree orders that inmates who are able to work must be fed better with immediate effect at the expense of the remaining (not able to work) ...:



The result of the "starvation decree" is that inmates who are unable to work will, in the medium term, be exposed to starvation, which is willed and which also happens later!

Giesler was a fanatical Nazi whom Hitler thought so highly ...



... that in his political will on April 29, 1945, he named Giesler as the successor to SS chief Himmler as the new Reich Minister of the Interior.

In 1943, Giesler had triggered a nationwide scandal by performing in a fully drunk state at the University of Munich:

During his speech he mobbed female students and told them to "hang around". Instead, they should “give the Führer a child,” he would also be happy to send his adjutants over to you for the purpose. The picture shows him leaving the scandalous event ...:



There were tumultuous protests - unique in the Nazi era! The drunk was pushed out of the room by students. Protesting students were subsequently arrested.

After the arrest of the members of the "White Rose" resistance group, he advocated extreme severity and demanded that their executions should be carried out in public.

Giesler committed crimes until the last days of the "Third Reich": A few hours and days before the invasion of US troops ...



... more than 100 opponents of the regime were murdered on Giesler's orders ...:





To this end, he wrote in a public appeal:

“Hatred must have a free rein. Our hateful disposition must strike the enemy like a scorching ember ”.

On May 1, 1945, near Berchtesgaden, Giesler tried to commit suicide with the help of sleeping pills with his wife and mother-in-law, but it failed.

The following day Giesler shot his wife and himself in the head in a forest near the Hintersee. Seriously wounded by a shot in the head, Giesler was found and taken to a hospital in the Bischofswieser district of Stanggaß, near Berchtesgaden, where he died a few days later.

Pity that the allies couldn't hang him ...
 
That cruel evil man should have suffered so much after all he instigated and caused

Always amazes me how the wives of leaders died with no qualms

Horrible incident but part of a terrible history
