Heinrich Himmler 's Speech On The Holocaust

He only possessed the structure that his father implanted in him and didn’t feel any remorse for his actions. As an adult, he constantly judged and corrected himself the same way his dad did. His father forced him to attain an impossible role of royalty. So even throughout adulthood, Himmler’s main goal and focus was to prove himself and discover a purpose. The only position he felt that he had finally found this was in the military or Nazi party. He saw a possibility to get back his childhood and the joyful memories he never experienced when he became a figure of

Hitler had shown unwillingness to tolerate the Jews and once he was appointed Chancellor, he started to take elimination measures like deportation, forced emigration, and isolation to enforce his belief. He took advantage of Germany’s weakness in World War One, then used it as an opportunity to blame the Jews for Germany’s defeat. Hitler’s political party was the largest political party in Germany thus allowing them to draw very large crowds to gatherings. He had very good oratory speeches with hand gestures that easily manipulated people to adhere to his views. Hitler constantly targeted the Jews because he knew people believed in these speeches. People in Germany were already anti-semitic but Hitler made it worse by constantly consuming them in his speeches. From the way he spoke about the Jews, we could clearly see the possibility of genocide. Hitler wanted Germany to be free of any humans that anyone other than his ideal master race so he personally selected bodyguards to be part of a group called the SS. Hitler was responsible for ordering the SS to carry out the extermination of anyone who did not fit this ideal. The SS handled oppositions using force and as a result of which people were forced to give into the idea of violence. Sometimes people purposely went along with this Holocaust ideal due to the fear of getting killed. These terrors allowed the holocaust occur

Germany’s fate was changed on April 20, 1889, the day I, Adolf Hitler was born to German official, Alois and my dear, Klara Hitler. Little did they know of what a miracle that had blessed them that day. My destiny was decided for me every time my father lectured me about the abhor Jews, taking up our German property, and beat me for the childish mistakes I made. I realized my destiny was to punish the faults in our once perfect nation. My father’s strict upper hand was not the only contribution to my great plan. At the age of sixteen, I left my home to pursue my dream of becoming an artist. I enrolled myself into the Viennese Academy of Fine Arts. The vile Jews in charge of the school denied me acceptance into the school. I spent

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

Dzungar, Holodomor, Rwandan, Cambodians, Armenians, Circassian, Ottoman Greek, and the Jewish. All too many genocides. When will it stop? When will we learn? When will we stop forgetting about the past and when will the history books end the patterns of war and death? When? The survivors share their stories, but do we listen? Elie Wiesel was a fifteen year old boy with the a life ahead of him, when his religion, following Judaism, made him a target in Adolf Hitler's extermination plans. He was only a boy. He had done nothing wrong, absolutely nothing, yet his life had been ended before it began. From Auschwitz to Birkenau to Buna to Gleiwitz and Gleiwitz to Buchenwald. Wiesel endured separation and starvation, to survive the brutality of the Jewish Holocaust that left millions of others dead. Individuals with lives, with hopes, with dreams, suffering with no end, and losing everything upon survival. Adults, children, elderly, everyone one of them innocent. As individuals living without these threats we cannot empathize for the horror stories we hear, since we have no personal connection, we can only sympathize for them. With no personal connection to the events, it is sure that we will forget Wiesel, but why do we forget? Because humans are imperfect beings? How do we stop erring and forget the mistakes that have preceded us? Humans struggle to understand that the mistakes of one individual do not define those similar to them. If human can attempt to

Throughout history, many things have happened, such as the Holocaust, that included people who will blindly obey to orders given to them that ended many lives. Events where people have blindly obeyed orders, such as mass killings of innocent people or groups, were called genocides. The people leading genocides were trying to destroy a certain race or ethnic group by either killing them or dehumanizing them, they treated the people very poorly and made the targeted people feel like animals. One of the biggest genocide in history was the Holocaust which targeted Jews, disabled people, homosexuals, Jehovah Witnesses, etc. The leader of the Holocaust was Adolf Hitler, who had the Germans kill more than six million Jews and others that were not considered the perfect German, which was described as blue eyed, blond hair, and tall. People will follow orders blindly because they wanted to feel powerful or superior, the events were related to an individual's religion or beliefs, individuals wished to appear as obedient.

In the beginning Adolf Hitler couldn 't run all of germany by himself so he elected officials to take charge while he was worrying about taking over the world. “Heinrich Himmler who was appointed Reichsfuhrer- SS in 1929 and from its very inception he saw the SS as an elite force, as an elite unit, the party 's "Praetorian Guard," with all SS personnel selected on the principles of racial purity and unconditional loyalty to the Nazi Party” (Holocaust Education). Himmler took his job very seriously, he took barely trained bodyguards and turned them into an elite force who was know as “Schutzstaffel or SS “. There was nothing that Himmler didn 't do that impress the fuhrer,”Thanks to his control of the police Himmler was able to build up the concentration camps, in order to provide “protective custody” for political suspects.” Since Hitler and Himmler were

The holocaust is notorious for its dark and horrific past. Among the horrible tragedies was the story of Elie Wiesel and his family. The experiences that Elie has faced throughout his years of life has have greatly influenced his perspective on society. In his speech, he explains how he was a survivor of the holocaust, what he has been through, and what he has done after the holocaust to help improve society and to preach his humanistic ideas. He explains how everyone is equal. Society must work together to make sure a horrific act such like the holocaust will never happen ever again. The holocaust deeply affected Elie Wiesel’s perspective on society and in his speech, he makes sure to make sure history does not repeat itself.

Although many people have written about The Holocaust, Few have done so with the eloquence of Elie Wiesel. The Holocaust was the period between 1933 and 1945 when Nazi Germany persecuted and systematically million murderer of Jews and other innocent people. His works speak of the need for people to feel compassion for their fellow human beings. Elie Wiesel was born in 1928 in Sighet, a small town in Romania who had been a sanctuary for Jews since they were driven south out of Ukraine in 1640. He was the third of four children and the only son born to Shlomo and Sarah Wiesel Feig. Wiesel had three sisters, Hilda and Batya were younger than him and Tzipora was younger. Education is very important for the family. The region was an important part

After watching Adolf Hitler’s speech, he is very intimidating just because of the way he looks. He states what his audience wants to hear and gives them courage to fight for the change that they want. He builds fear in the audience by stating, “Once, our enemies worried us and persecuted us and, from time to time removed lesser elements from the Movement for us” (News and Politics). In other words, saying that enough is enough. No longer can the German people let their enemies step all over them and do as they please with them. Basically, stating that their enemies have made them believe that they are superior to them, when they aren’t. The camera often focuses on the audience which are well dressed in suits and who can be trusted.

Heinrich Himmler was born on October 7th, 1900 in Munich to a middle-class Bavarian family. His father was Joseph Gebhard Himmler, a secondary-school teacher and principal. His mother was Anna Maria Himmler (maiden name Heyder), a devout Catholic and extremely attentive mother. Heinrich had an older brother, Gebhard Ludwig Himmler, and a younger brother, Ernst Hermann Himmler. Heinrich was named after his godparent, Prince Heinrich of Wittelsbach of the royal family of Bavaria, who was tutored by Gebhard Himmler. Educated at secondary school in Landshut, Himmler served as an officer cadet in the 11th Bavarian Regiment at the end of WW1, although he saw no active service. After working briefly as a salesman for a fertilizer manufacturing firm, Heinrich Himmler joined the Nazi party and in the November of 1923 participated in the Beer-Hall Putsch as a standard bearer at the side of Ernst Rohm. All of these roles combined together were a major reason for Heinrich Himmler being chosen for the jobs he received later in his militaristic life. It is surprising, that Heinrich Himmler, the chief of the SS and the primary architect of the Holocaust, has not attracted the attentions of more biographers. For all that he had taken part in for the history of the Third Reich, he appears to lack the “infamous charisma” of Heydrich or Hitler, and because of this lack of “infamous charisma” he has been presented only rarely as a primary subject for a book about the holocaust and 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.

This speech fully shows the hatred that Hitler and the Nazi Party had towards the Jews, and how set they were on eliminating the Jews (Jewish Virtual Library: Hitler's Threats Against the Jews). This hatred and irrational thought of the “threat” Jews posed to the German race led to Hitler’s “Final Solution”, which was ultimately to fully eliminate the Jewish race. Hitler used concentrations camps as his mode of carrying out his plan and fulfilling his prophecy. (Holocaust Encyclopedia: The

When one thinks of the most evil and powerful person through history, one often thinks of Adolf Hitler. However, most of the feats accomplished by Hitler would have been impossible without the help of his lesser known right-hand man, Heinrich Himmler. Deemed “the second most powerful man in Germany during World War II” (United States Holocaust Memorial Museum), he helped Hitler carry out his brutal genocide of the Jewish religion. Heinrich Himmler played an extremely important role in the Holocaust.
