No German soldier or otherwise was ever killed during any part of world war II for not following orders to kill Jews.

The general public was in fear no doubt because of propoganda.

I highly recommend both the Christopher R Browning(Ordinary Men) and Daniel J Goldhagen (Hitler's Willing Executioners) books on the general public's attitudes during this time. Both books were around the same time and after Schindler's List and it is quite interesting how well Schindler's manages to stay impartial - and Keneally too a decade before for tht matter.

In fact some of the batallions that were ordered to go out and shoot Jewish kids in the forrest were given the option not to. These were not soldiers or Nazi's but police battalions. 11 out of 500+ opted out with no punishment. The rest were quite happy to one presumes.
