Essay On The Holocaust In Relation To The State Of Israel

     Throughout history the Jewish people have been scapegoats; whenever something was not going right they were the ones to blame. From Biblical times through to the Shakespearean Era, all the way to the Middle East Crisis and the creation of Israel, the Jews have been persecuted and blamed for the problems of the world. The most horrifying account of Jewish persecution is the holocaust, which took place in Europe from 1933 to 1945 when Adolf Hitler tried to eliminate all the people that he thought were inferior to the Germans, namely the Jews, because he wanted a pure Aryan State.

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the one of the world’s oldest conflicts, and it is still an ongoing problem in the world. Zionists and Arabs: two groups with conflicting beliefs who both claim Israel as their own. In wake of the Holocaust the U.N decided to gift the Jews a homeland for the lives lost in the genocide. In 1947, the U.N Partition divided the land of Israel (Historic Palestine) into two separate states: Arab and Jewish. Since then, the state of Israel has been the center of conflict between the Arabs and the Zionists. As time passed the Zionists gained more land from winning the Six-Day War, and consequently the Palestinians had to live as refugees in other Arab countries. Additionally, more than 75% of the land belonged to

The Holocaust was a tragic event in history, in that the death of six million Jews was at the hands of the leader Adolf Hitler. The tragic events in the Holocaust are what lead up to the development of Israel therefore, the Holocaust ties in with the state of Israel because the state of Israel was developed in result of the Holocaust, there was still threats and attacks on the Jews even after the development of Israel and without the tragedy of the Holocaust the Jews would not have any strive or support to build an establishment.

The Holocaust was the murder and persecution of approximately 6 million Jews and many others by the Nazi regime and its collaborators. The Nazis came to power in Germany in January of 1933. The Nazis thought that the “inferior” Jews were a threat to the “racially superior” German racial community. The death camps were operated from 1941 to 1945, and many people lost their lives or were forced to work in concentration camps during these years. The story leading up to the Holocaust, how the terrible event affected people’s lives, and how it came to and end are all topics that make this historic event worth learning about.

The Holocaust victimize many Jewish people. These people had to suffer for so long, in harsh conditions with little food and water, before they were liberated, and many did not even make it to liberation

Before anyone can comprehend the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, one must understand the theory of Zionism. Theodor Herzl was the first Jew to have the idea of creating Israel. He was a witness of the Dreyfus affair, in which a Jewish officer was accused of treason, solely because he was Jewish. Herzl also witnessed mobs of people shouting “Death to the Jews”. This was the last straw for Herzl. Herzl decided that there needed to be a change so he made it one of his life goals to create a successful movement in which Jews founded a Jewish state. One of his main arguments was that discrimination against Jews could be eliminated if they had their own Jewish State, and so modern Zionism was formed. The idea of modern Zionism is so pertinent to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict because much of the reason for Israel becoming a Jewish state is behind the fact that Jews were perpetrated throughout the years before Zionism even came into play of the situation.

There was a time, not too long ago, when jews were mistreated and thought to be inferior. This time was called the Holocaust. It was started by a man named Adolf Hiitler. He was a young boy who had grown up in Austria with his mom and dad.

They began a forceful campaign to convince the world of the inferiority and weakness of the people they deemed useless, imperfect or different. It is important that we recognise not only the Jews, but the others that had to face the wrath of Hitler’s racism. The Holocaust left a huge impact not only on society’s functions but its beliefs as well, beginning a major fight for equality which can now be seen throughout the world, as people learnt from Hitler’s mistakes and began to see the major inequalities which surrounded our world. Thus beginning a major revolution in the way we began to accept others regardless of their culture, and although our world isn’t equal, we are definitely now on the right

In 1948, the Zionist movement realized its goal of creating a national home for the Jewish people by founding the State of Israel. Zionists had been working toward this goal for decades, but only won decisive international support in the aftermath of the Holocaust, a catastrophe that supported the Zionist argument that the Jewish people would only be safe in their own state, where they could live as they chose and defend their culture. Indeed, the Holocaust was the single most important factor in the creation of Israel, in large part because the international community was shocked by the scale of the Holocaust and felt responsible for aiding the Zionist project.

History helps us better understand change and why things are the way they are. We study history because the past has a direct link to our present and ultimately our future.Through the study of history, we hope to learn from our past, and not make the same mistakes again.

The Holocaust was a major event that took place in Germany while Hitler was in power. He believed that the Jewish people were the reason of Germany’s downfall and led the people of Germany to despise them as well. This event started in 1933 and ended up killing millions of Jewish people. Hitler passed the enabling law which granted him permission to attack the Jews, by isolating them, forcing them to wear the star of david and having a J stamped onto their passports.Throughout this genocide there was an estimated six to eleven million Jewish people who were killed. The Germans sent the Jews to concentration camps where they were starved or worked to death. This situation should have had stronger forces like league of nations as a collective on the international side of things questioning Hitler's tactics; and taking in Jewish people into their countries, but not to the extent that a war would start or put their country in danger. They shouldn’t have had to put their own peoples lives at risk for another countries affairs; but still could have helped out by opening their countries for them to migrate to.

By the late nineteenth century, the Jews, who had been in exile for almost two thousand years, found their ancestral homeland in Palestine, which was largely occupied by Arabs and governed by the Turks; this dilemma sparked many problems within the Middle East. Since the rise of the Zionist movement and the establishment of the State of Israel in May 1948, political leaders of predominately Muslim nations in the Middle East have made discriminatory prejudice anti-Semitic statements or actions. Allowing for apportioning or deflection of blame, contradicting the stated social and theological morality of the Islamic faith, this technique has been used as a tool for political control by regimes in this region for the past century. The relationship between anti-Semitic and anti-Zionist views in the Middle East are shown through the nature of the governments involved in the anti-Zionist movement, the relationship these nations had with the state of Israel, the effect it had on the Arabic people living within these countries and the assumptions made on Judaism and Zionism.
