of the Holocaust
1 Adolf Eichmann (1906–62): Austrian Nazi whose office organised everything
to do with the Final Solution, ranging from gassing techniques to death camps
to train timetables. By August 1944 he could acknowledge to Himmler that his
achievement was the death of six million Jews: four million in the death camps,
two million in mobile units. He escaped to Argentina in 1946, was abducted
to Israel in 1960 and tried in 1961. Eichmann was executed for crimes against
the Jewish people and crimes against humanity.
