(Daily Mail-UK) Harriet Alexander - Audio recordings of Adolf Eichmann, the architect of the Holocaust, boasting about his actions have been made public for the first time, 60 years after his execution for crimes against humanity. Eichmann recorded the interviews in 1957 in Argentina, where he fled after the war, which are being broadcast now thanks to Israeli documentary makers. In them, Eichmann admits to his role in the "Final Solution." "If we had killed 10.3 million Jews, I would say with satisfaction, 'Good, we destroyed an enemy','' Eichmann says. "Then we would have fulfilled our mission." He said, "Jews who are not fit to work must be sent to the Final Solution, period." He said that he "did not care" whether those sent to Auschwitz lived or died. At one point, Eichmann can be heard swatting a fly that was buzzing around the room and describing it as having "a Jewish nature."
