Herschel Feibel Grynszpan was a Polish-Jewish refugee, born in Germany. His assassination of the Nazi German diplomat Ernst von Rath on 7 November 1938 in Paris provided the Nazis with the pretext for the Kristallnacht, the antisemitic pogrom of 9–10 November 1938. More than 90 people were killed, more than 30,000 Jews arrested and sent to concentration camps (where over a thousand died of mistreatment before the remainder were released some months later) and thousands of Jewish shops, homes, offices and more than 200 synagogues smashed up or burned. My question is How many believe in collective punishment of innocent civilians on account of the terrorism of their co-religionists?
