From what little I know of you, Tac, you are not a complete idiot. If it was you, I am sure you would try to find out what genes actually are first if it came to so important a decision.
1. Simple calculation shows that their children being 5 steps removed from Hitler would have been statistically likely to share 1/32 ~ 3% of Hitler's genes.
2. There is no and cannot be "gene for attacking Poland" and if there were a "gene for hating jews", it would be so widespread as to make the whole attempt of controlling it pointless.
3. If you assume that some mutation occured on the stage from Hitler's father to Hitler to make him Hitler-like, then they could not have it not being descended from him.
Otherwise his genes are all from normal german/jewish genepool. A genepool of a nation is constantly mixed together (via sexual reproduction) and after couple dozen generations the difference dissolves altogether - any german who lived 500 years ago and has
any descendants has
all modern germans as his descendants - they are all remote cousins, like any nation.
In fact it is proven that every single one of us had a common ancestor no later then 30,000 years ago but most likely much later.
I inderstand that people would not want want to bear once common jewish name Hitler or even Adolf, but exterminating your own line for no apparent reason (apparently Hitler was not the name A.H. was even born with) is plain stupid. Of course after seing
