Even the Germans themselves paid dearly for their cowardice. A rich cultural heritage (in literature, art, music, philosophy, the natural sciences) destroyed by a government obsessed with "reviving the German nation" of all people. Everyone lost in the end. It may sound weird, but there is an element of karma to it all.

And another important thing to remember is that this hostility towards the Jews wasn't just a German phenomenon.
