One of the reasons why it was eventually decided to deport the Jews to Russia may be the decision of the Soviets from August 28, 1941, to deport the three million Germans, which had settled along the Volga river during the 17th and 18th century, as members of an enemy nation to Siberia. This mass deportation was indeed implemented with the greatest brutality imaginable during subsequent months. It is assumed that a great many of those Germans died during this process. The reaction of the German government to this ethnic cleansing can be seen from the directives given to German radio stations, in which the National Socialist German government threatened the carriers of "Jewish Bolshevism" with retaliation:
"In case the actions against the Volga Germans are implemented as announced by the Bolsheviks, the Jews of central Europe will also be deported to the eastern most parts of the areas controlled by the German administration. [...] If the crime against the Volga Germans becomes reality, Jewry will have to pay for this crime many times. "
(L:) So the German government viewed the final solution as a kind of retaliation?(Germar Rudolf:) That is at least what German radio propaganda claimed. Fact is, however, that the German government had planned the forced resettlement of the Jews already earlier, just as Stalin had planned and started the deportation of the Volga Germans already before August 28, 1941. At any rate, in 1941 the terror apparatus controlled by Stalin could no longer be called "Jewish," because the dominant role of Jews in the Soviet government had been broken by Stalin in 1938 by the most violent purges. As such, the central European Jews were the wrong target for this announced retaliation not just because collective guilt is not permissible anyway, but also because Jews no longer predominated in the Soviet Union.Lectures on the Holocaust (2005)Germar Rudolph
