Adolf Hitler And The Holocaust

The Nazis, who came to power in Germany in January 1933, believed that Germans were “racially superior” and that Jews, were “inferior” and were a “threat” to the German Racial community: this was the idea behind the Holocaust, meaning “sacrifice by fire”. The Jewish population of Europe stood at over nine million in 1933, most of these Jews lived in countries that the Nazis would soon occupy. By 1945, the Germans and collaborators killed two out of every three European Jews as part of the “Final Solution”.

The world today is still uncertain about the major cause of the Holocaust. Many people have a wide range of opinions on this traumatic topic leaving the identity of those responsible unknown. The real question is who had most to do with being responsible for the holocaust out of the Nazis and the German people. The German’s were said to be manipulated by Hitler’s powerful speeches and propaganda which he used to make himself appear powerful, making the German’s feel as though they had no choice but to elect him as their leader. The Germans worshipped Hitler and demonstrated acts of love and support by celebrating and voting for him. The Germans didn’t hesitate to stop their beloved leader from ordering the Nazi party to wipe out the entire

Adolf Hitler was a German leader and his government was Nazism. (Skog 4) Hitler believed that Jews were the enemy, and would beat and kill them in the streets. (4) He was a cruel leader, and killed millions of Jews. (4) Some of the Germans still hated the Jews. (Skog 12) Some Germans felt real sorry about the Jews dying. (12) The camps were for either killing Jews or imprisoning, and then killing them afterward. (4) Jews had to dress up in stripes, and if they didn’t they would be severely punished(12)

It is estimated that about 50 million people died in World War 2, with 6 million of them being Jewish. Adolf Hitler lead the main attack on Europe behind Germany. Hitler started a political party known as the Nazis, which set out to get revenge for the setbacks the Germans experienced after World War 1. Hitler targeted Jewish people because he thought they were inferior and threatened the German race. Hitler used Nazi propaganda to target the German population and eventually invaded Poland in 1939. The U.S.A joined World War 2 after Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941. The U.S.A joined Allied forces including Britain and Soviet Union to defeat the Axis Powers of Germany, Italy, and Japan. World War 2 saw some of the most inhumane treatment

“Monsters exist, but they are too few in number to be truly dangerous. More dangerous are the common men, the functionaries ready to believe and to act without asking questions.” -Primo Levi. The Holocaust was an age of man killing man over prejudices and blind hatred. Around 6 million Jews, around 3 million Ethnic Poles, 3 million Ukrainian Slavs, 2-3 million Soviets, 1.5 million Belarusian Slavs, around 400,000 Serbs, 270,000 disabled, 90,000-220,000 Romani, 80,000-200,000 Freemasons, around 20,000 Slovenes, 5,000-15,000 Homesexuals, 2,500-5,000 Jehova’s Witnesses, and 7,000 Spanish republicans were murdered, forced into ghettos, abused, and discriminated against by the Natzi’s. The mental trauma these individuals were forced to go through must have crushed their soul, hope, and their will to live.

World War II (WWII) was one of the most deadly and widespread wars on the

Adolf Hitler played a major role in WWII. Hitler was anti-Semitic. Anti-Semitic is to be against Jews. Hitler’s perspective of perfection was a blue-eyed, blonde-haired white person; most Jews did not fit this description. This view is what caused the Holocaust. The Holocaust was a period of time in which many Jews were killed in camps. He also believed that he could bring Germany to greatness once again. Because of Adolf Hitler’s actions and beliefs, he was an important figure in WWII.

Hitler has taken over Russia and surrounding countries to try and take over the world. He has used the people to elect him into government and try to put down all the Jews. Hitler thought that Jews were a disease so he rounded up all the Jews first in the town slums but after in concentration camps. The Jews were lined up in front of mass shooting squads then burying them in mass graves all around the country, Jews weren't the only being taken. He also took gypsies, black people, homosexual and disabled people, Hitler burned books, and destroyed museums to make sure people didn’t become smarter than him. In the end on September, 2 1945, 6 years later the war finally ended with Hitler shooting himself, now almost everyone knows the story of

In the documentary that I watched I was amazed at the fact that at one point there were over 9 million Jews living in Europe before Hitler rose to power. However, by the end of World War II only 3 million Jews were left. Adolf Hitler began his rise during the Great Depression and was named Chancellor of Germany in 1933. During his time in control, Hitler blamed the Jewish people for being responsible of the economic crisis. In order to get everybody to have the same mindset he had, Hitler would despise Jews through the media such as newspapers and films. He also created the Nuremberg laws to locate all the Jews. These laws would classify you as a Jew if you came from three or four Jewish grandparents. Hitler did everything in his power to get

The key effects that played a major role in the Holocaust were centered around the actions and decisions made by the Fascism people. The Holocaust escalated to the point of horror when Adolf Hitler started to desire power and dominance in the towns. Adolf Hitler was one of the most powerful and well known dictators in the mid 1900’s. Adolf was known for being powerful and destructive to humans. After World War I he rose to power in the National Socialist German Workers Party, taking control of the German government in 1933. His establishments of concentration camps began so he could torture and scare the Jewish people. Adolf created concentration camps to kill Jewish people in belief that they were a threat to Aryan supremacy, which resulted in the death of more than 6 million people in the Holocaust. His attack on Poland in 1939 ignited World War II, and by 1941 Germany occupied much of Europe and North Africa. (HISTORY.com). Adolf’s actions created a benchmark in history that changed the views of the 1900’s for people all around the world.

Adolf Hitler, chancellor of Germany from 1933 to 1945 and führer of Nazi Germany from 1934 to 1945, was the mastermind behind both World War II within Europe and the Holocaust. In the “Final Solution,” concentration and extermination camps were implemented in an attempt to rid of the Jewish population entirely. Such a task, genocide, would not be done easily. By the end of World War II, over six million Jews had been killed. However, not merely Jews were subject to mass murder, but nearly five million non-Jewish people. Out of all of these deaths, a range from 1,885,889 to 2,045,215 were in the concentration camp system. Furthermore, approximately one million of these deaths were carried out within the Auschwitz concentration camp complex. Thus, one in every six Jews killed during the holocaust was killed at an Auschwitz camp. These extermination camps were the only means by which such a multitude of murder could have been efficiently accomplished. The systematic mechanization of mass murder, using gas chambers and crematoria, made such high death tolls fathomable, making efficient killing easier both physically and psychologically.

It began with a simple boycott of Jewish shops and ended in the gas chambers at Auschwitz as Adolf Hitler and his Nazi followers attempted to exterminate the entire Jewish population of Europe.

Adolf Hitler was a man who commits many crimes against humanity and enforced harrowing treatment on innocent humans. Hitler was born in Austria on April 20, 1889. Hitler was raised by an emotionally harsh father, who disliked many of his interests. Therefore, nature and nurture qualities of his life may have influences his choices. Later, Hitler rose to power in the German politics. He used propaganda to influence people to follow him. Subsequently, he became the leader of the National Socialist German Workers Party, referred as the Nazi Party. From 1933-1945, Hitler was chancellor of Germany. He served as a dictator for the country and people. In addition, Hitler instituted many Anti-Semitic laws to exclude Jews from society. Since Jews had different physical characteristics and religious views, Hitler hated them for their perspective on life.

My topic is the holocaust it was a creation by the leader of germany Adolf Hitler it was a project to kill a religious group the jews had to wear the star of david on there arm if they lied they be put in prison or killed on sight.

The Jewish Holocaust, one of the most horrific mass murders in human history, took place from January 30, 1933 until May 8, 1945. Hitler blamed the Jewish population for Germany’s downfalls at the time, and his anti-Semitic views eventually led Germany to create a complicated scheme of Jewish extermination. Over six million Jewish lives were lost in this mass murder. America, usually portrayed as the country that lends a helping hand to all nations in desperate need, did absolutely nothing to aid the vulnerable Jews. America entirely neglected the Jewish Holocaust, did nothing to prevent the catastrophe from worsening, and strongly opposed publicizing these issues in its media.
