Dr. Joseph Mengele

HOW CAN A MAN THAT GOT A PH.D AND A M.D. CALL HIMSELF A DR.
THEREFORE, HOW CAN HE BE HUMAN? WITH ALL THE THINGS HE HAS DONE THAT HE CALLS "EXPERIMENTS." THAT IS NOT WHAT A DOCTOR REALLY DOES. A REAL DOCTOR IS THERE TO HELP YOU GET BETTER, NOT TO TORTURE YOU. AS ONE IS BECOMING A DOCTOR, THE OATH THAT IS SAID IS "IT MAY ALSO BE WITHIN MY POWER TO TAKE A LIFE; THIS AWESOME RESPONSIBILITY, MUST BE FACED WITH GREAT HUMBLENESS AND AWARENESS OF MY OWN FRAITY. ABOVE ALL, I MUST NOT PLAY GOD." BUT AS WE WOULD READ ON HE WENT ON TO BE ON ALL OF THESE THINGS AS A DOCTOR AND INSTEAD HE BE CAME A MONSTER WITH SOME CANDY AND A SMILE.

"Mengele promoted medical experimentation on inmates, especially dwarfs and twins. He is said to have supervised an operation by which two Gypsy children were sewn together to create Siamses twins; the hands of the children became badly infected where the veins had been resected. (Snyder)

"The only firsthand evidence on these experiments comes from a handful of survivors and from a Jewish doctor, Miklos Nyiszli, who worked under Mengele as a pathologist. Mengele subjected his victims - twins and dwarfs aged two and above - to clinical examinations, blood tests, X rays, and anthropological measurements. In the case of the twins, he drew sketches of each twin, for comparison. He also injected his victims with various substances, dripping chemicals into their eyes (apparently in an attempt to change their color).

He then killed them himself by injecting chloroform into their hearts, so as to carry out comparative pathological examinations of their internal organs. Mengele's purpose, according to Dr. Nyiszli, was to establish the genetic cause for the birth of twins, in order to facilitate the formulation of a program for doubling the birthrate of the 'Aryan' race. The experiments on twins affected 180 persons, adults and children.

Mengele also carried out a large number of experiments in the field of contageous diseases, (typhoid and tuberculosis) to find out how human beings of different races withstood these diseases. He used Gypsy twins for this purpose. Mengele's experiments combined scientific (perhaps even important) research with the racist and ideological aims of the Nazi regime. which made use of government offices, scientific institutions, and concentration camps.

From the scanty information available, it appears that his research differed from the other medical experiments in that the victims' death was programmed into his experiments and formed a central element in it."
