The guns are an implementation detail. The tools you need are generally context-specific. Malone: "You wanna know how you do it? Here's how, they pull a knife, you pull a gun." What if they're destroying your culture, your economic substrate? Bringing a gun to this party is like bringing a knife to go after Malone. (The Untouchables.)

The Nazis accomplished an impressive feat of data processing to collate the identity information of almost all of the Jews in the territories they controlled. If the Nazis lacked that, far more lives would have been saved than arming the Jewish minorities. A gunfight is one of the outcomes they would have wanted. It would have been a propaganda coup for them! And if the Jews had been an unorganized mob, so much the better for them.
