Quote #10
They construct shelters and trenches, they repair the damage, they build, they fight, they command, they organize and they kill. What else could they do? They are Germans. This way of behavior is not meditated and deliberate, but follows from their nature and from the destiny they have chosen. They could not act differently: if you wound the body of a dying man, the wound will begin to heal, even if the whole body dies within a day. (15.20)
Again, Primo gives us a glimpse into what he feels about the German "race." All that they do, he points out, comes from "their nature and the destiny they have chosen." How is this different from or similar to how the Germans stereotype the Jews?
