Causes Of The Holocaust: Never Forget

The obliterate event of the holocaust in 1933. The Jewish population of Europe stood at over nine million. Most of the Jews lived in the countries that Nazi Germany would occupy or influence in World War 2. By 1945, Germans and their collaborators killed nearly two out of every three European Jews as the ‘Final Solution’ the Nazi policy to murder the Jews of Europe (Introduction to the Holocaust). The cause and effect of the holocaust was due to racism, prejudice and stereotyping since, Jews were isolated in their communities that caused distrusted and discrimination against the Jews in Europe.(Cause and Effect of Holocaust ). In the boy in the striped book, when Gretel and her brother Bruno looked out the window to figure out what the hut were in the distance at the time Gretel said ‘’ it’s a countryside. This is our holiday home’’. Then Bruno said’’ i don’t think so’’. After this Gretel discriminates against Bruno saying’’ your only nine years old, how would you know ( The Boy in the Striped Pajamas pg.34 John Boyne). Adolf Hitler and the Nazi operation on the anti-semitic racist beliefs that germans are superior people with the ideology, using World War 2 as their primary to achieve their goal. The Nazis targeted the Jews as main enemy, killing six million Jewish men,

What happened when Germany conquered its neighboring territories? They caused a whole war to take place. This paper will discuss the Holocaust; why it took place, what happened during, and the effects.

The Holocaust was one of the most horrific events in history. It involved the systematic mass slaughter of European Jews and certain groups of people that were unable to meet the standards of the Aryans. The Holocaust involved the slaughter of approximately six million Jews by the Nazi regime and its collaborators under Adolf Hitler. The three main causes of the Holocaust were, Anti-semitism, Propaganda, and Hitler.

Causes of the Holocaust The Holocaust took place for a number of reasons some of which were long term and others short term. The main reasons are; for centuries Germany had been an anti-Semitic country Jews were used as scapegoats for German problems. Also centuries of Nazi persecution caused the Holocaust in particular 1933 -1939 as well as Adolf Hitler and his racist views which influenced thousands of Germans.

Horror struck on January 30, 1933, when Germany assigned Adolf Hitler as their chancellor. Once Hitler had finally reached power he set out to complete one goal, create a Greater Germany free from the Jews (“The reasons for the Holocaust,” 2009). This tragedy is known today as, “The Holocaust,” that explains the terrors of our histories past. The face of the Holocaust, master of death, and leader of Germany; Adolf Hitler the most deceitful, powerful, well spoken, and intelligent person that acted as the key to this mass murder. According to a research study at the University of South Florida, nearly eleven million people were targeted and killed. This disaster is a genocide that was meant to ethnically cleanse Germany of the Jews. Although Jewish people were the main target they were not the only ones targeted; gypsies, African Americans, homosexuals, socialists, political enemies, communists, and the mentally disabled were killed (Simpson, 2012, p. 113). The word to describe this hatred for Jewish people is known as antisemitism. It was brought about when German philosophers denounced that “Jewish spirit is alien to Germandom” (“Antisemitism”) which states that a Jew is non-German. Many people notice the horrible things the Germans did, but most don’t truly understand why the Holocaust occurred. To truly understand the Holocaust, you must first know the Nazis motivations. Their motivations fell into two categories including cultural explanations that focused on ideology and

After WW2, there was a thing called the holocaust. There were many concentration camps all over Germany where many Jews were killed in different ways. It happened between WW1 and WW2, 1933-1945. My position on why this happened is that Germany was going through a rough time, so Hitler wanted their country to resemble power. Read on to learn more about the causes and ways the Holocaust could have been avoided.

Power, could there be too much of it? Or not enough? In the wrong hands, too much power lead to millions of innocent lives being taken away. One of the world’s most famous dictators takes power and has control on whether you live or die. He may not like the color of your hair, skin or what you believe in and for that, the price you pay is your life.

Six million people wiped off the face of the earth like they were never anything more than a whisper on the wind. The holocaust took the lives of millions of innocent people and the blame can be pointed in numerous directions, but Hitler and the german citizens are the most responsible. After them is the soldiers who ran the camps and collected the people. Next is the people of neighboring cities and nations that sat back and either were not able to do anything or didn’t do something soon enough to help those being torchered and killed. The jewish people, Yahweh, and U.S. citizens are not responsible for the Holocaust. Responsibility for the Holocaust relies on a bunch of people and groups, this is my perception.

The Holocaust was one of the most despicable acts of crime committed in history. It was the slaughtering of six million Jews along with other minority groups. Anti-semitism was on the rise in Germany due to one man, Adolf Hitler. The Nazi leader is known to be one of the most infamous dictators that were able to rise to power. Leading Germany, Hitler improved the economy, started World War II with the idea of Lebensraum, and exterminated Jews due to youth anti-semitic influences.

What causes conflict? Well, conflict is caused when there is a disagreement or miscommunication. The Holocaust was a huge and bloody disagreement that led to World War II and was a horrific event that took place in the 1930-1940’s. A man that we’ve probably all heard of, named Adolf Hitler, came into power and participated in the slaughter of nearly 6 million jews, 250,000 disabled, and 196,000-220,000 Gypsies (according to the National Holocaust Memorial Museum website). These deaths were all over the European continent that were under German rule. My position on the main cause for the Holocaust was that the end of World War I left Germany in poverty. With the government in corruption, the people were desperate for change, so they allowed Hitler into power with the belief that others could control him if he did something bad. This obviously wasn’t true.

During this the unit on the Holocaust, I learned a lot of things. Not only about the facts that lead to the Holocaust, but the people and their stories.

This History Channel video clip uses animation for the reason of the Holocaust being gruesome and horrific. The intended audience for the video is for people who want to learn more about the rise of the Nazis and how Hitler took power of the Nazi Party. In September 1919 Adolf Hitler joined the German Worker Party, which then became the Nazi Party. President Von Hidenburg made Hitler chancellor and he took power in the government right away. Hitler, a talented speaker persuaded Germans to believe that he would make Germany better. Germans thought they found their “savior”. He blamed all Jews for the post war and punished them by the plan of total extermination with the use of concentration camps. Later Hidenburg died and Hitler made himself

The Holocaust is one of the most devastating events in human history. It lasted ten long years and ended with over six million innocent lives lost, not to mention the soldiers who died helping to free those who remained. The lives that were lost will never be forgotten. This paper is to take a look back on how the Holocaust started, how it was able to continue and how it finally ended.

Throughout the endless history, there were lots of important and influential event. For example the Dark Age, Enlightenment, Civil War, World War I and II and the Cold War. Over all of these event, there was one event that deeply influence the world and the Jews today, it was the Holocaust. Holocaust, a term that people use to describe the horrible event that happened during World War II which kill millions of innocent citizens. The Holocaust started at January 13, 1933, when Hitler became the leader of Germany. It continued until the V - E Day, which happened on May 8, 1945. 6 million Jews, and 5 million non-Jews were killed during the Holocaust. The causes and effect of the Holocaust was Hitler’s racism, poor economic conditions, and the death of 6 million Jews which led to the creation of the nation of Israel.

Holocaust deniers plague society with ideas that the holocaust never happened and it is a giant hoax. One of the more known deniers is Barbara Kulaszka. As one of Kulaszka’s claims, the belief that more Auschwitz inmates died from disease and not systematic extermination in gas chambers would be denial. Auschwitz was a death camp located in Poland, under the control of Hitler in the early 1940’s. Over a total of four million Jews died in Auschwitz when it was running from November 1943 to December 1945. In the treacherous camps of Auschwitz, more people died from unnatural deaths, such as gas chambers and torture, than of natural ones, such as disease and starvation. In Arno Mayer’s writings, he talked about how more Jews were killed by natural causes than unnatural ones. The real question being asked is what deaths count for natural and unnatural? While this question could be supported with many ideas, observations, and facts, this is merely just a question of morale. Do the mass shootings, extermination by gas chambers, and starvation due to lack of nutrition count as natural or unnatural deaths?
