Its a good intention, at least put like that.
And yes they were forbidden. I might not have said this, but Objectivism says it is wrong to initatie force against any other (unless you have reason to think you need to do it to prempt violence, Hitler might have thought he had reason, but he did not).
And initating force was exactly what Hitler did, you would not argue that Im sure
Reason tells you that it is not race that determines anything but physical qualities, and it was generally not physical qualities Hitler used as "reasons for killing Jews.
Killing someone due to their race is too attach nonexistent signifance to racial influences on personality. That is not reason ....that is irrationality.
Not only did most jews not have the qualities he ascribed to them (which proof it was not a reasoned decision), but they did contribute greatly to Germany.
