According to the passage why did the nazis feel justified in murdering people with disabilities
AveGali [126]

The Nazi's were a group of people who wanted to feel like they are the best. People of disabilities were in the Nazi's way. Thus, they felt justified when murdering these innocent people. People with disabilities faced some of the common consequences as Jews or Gypsies. Hope this helped :)
