1. To "resettle" the Polish Jews: This referred to the process of transporting Polish Jews to concentration camps, confining them to "ghettos," or killing them.

2. To exploit the labour of Polish Jews: This was akin to slavery. The Germans would capture Polish Jews and put them to work in a variety of environments. Most people worked under terrible conditions and died quickly.

3. To confiscate the property of Polish Jews: This referred to the private possessions of these citizens.

4. To identify and appropriate other assets: This referred to those things that could not be moved, such as businesses and land. These were also confiscated by the Nazi government for the benefit of Germany.
