Comparison Of The Holocaust And The Syrian Civil War

To begin with, the holocaust took place in Germany, it lasted about two years and in these two years Adolf Hitler had killed over six million Jews, Gypsies, homosexuals, and people that supported and/or defended these groups of people.

The Holocaust systematically murdered 11 million people across Europe, more than half of those people were Jewish. The Jews were blamed for the German’s failures, such as World War I. As a result, Hitler established anti-Semitism throughout his army and the majority of Europe. The Holocaust consisted of three phases to annihilate the Jews. The phases did not create racial purity and they did not successfully annihilate all of the Jews as the Nazi party planned.

Before WWII started Germany’s new dictator was starting a revolution. That only Adolf Hitler and his army knew about. The Nazis were what hitler’s army was called their job was to collect and kill as many Jewish people as they could. If anyone got in the way they were killed to. Hitler’s reasoning for killing all the jews he says they are the reason why they lost the first world war. How he killed all of these jews hitler and his nazis would force the jews to leave their houses and towns. Then he would get them all on a cattle car and take them to concentration camps. How hitler killed the jews were mostly gas chambers ,but he kept some few thousands to work or do certain things in these concentration camps. Some of those jews survived the holocaust to tell their story of what happened to them and their families.

A genocide is a horrible kind of war. It is a mass killing and torturing of innocent people who do not deserve any of it. There are many stages of genocides, which may or may not go in the same order. The Holocaust, being the largest genocide and a horrible point in history, is similar and different to the Bosnian/Croatian genocide. Although many aspects lead up to these genocides and other similar wars, there are possible measures that could have been taken to prevent all of this. No human should have to endure the pain of a genocide, especially as horrible as the Holocaust, or Croatian/Bosnian war. The Holocaust and the Bosnian genocide both consisted of many stages that led to a variety of horrible events, both similar and different, which could have been prevented if certain actions were taken into consideration.

The Holocaust was a mass murder of millions of individuals’ primary to and during World War II. “Only 54 percent of the people surveyed by the Anti- Defamation League (ADL) in a massive, global poll has ever heard of the Holocaust” (Wiener-Bronner). The Holocaust was from 1933-1945 and was run by German leader named Adolf Hitler. Hitler was a man who wanted to create his own race of people. Therefore to create this race, he wiped out anyone who did not have the specific descriptions that he wanted. For people to fit into his race, they had to have blue eyes and blond hair. This excluded the Jews and from then on Hitler slowly dehumanized them. In the concentration camp the first thing they had to pass was the selection test. The selection test was what the SS man (German soldiers) used to determine who was fit for work. Usually children, mothers, and elders were the first to die because they were not mentally fit for the work they were going to be given. People who passed the selection process either died of starvation, disease, fatigue, or assassination. It took twelve years before anyone intervened and by then it was too late for millions of people. Even though over twelve million people died during the Holocaust, genocides have still happened in Rwanda, Darfur and Cambodia.

The Holocaust was one of, if not the worst mass murder in history. The Nazis did one of the most horrifying things you could think of, killing so many innocent people. Many different groups of people other than jews were also victims of this tragic event. Some of those other groups were: LGBTQ individuals, the physically and mentally disabled, slavs, and members of opposing political groups. These groups of people were ripped from their homes and put into concentration camps. The Nazis would either separate them from their family or they would keep them together and they would have to watch the Nazis torture their family and friends. During this very tragic point in history, more than six million Jewish lives were taken, in total there were over 12 million victims of the Holocaust. Not only did this affect the survivors it also affected families of the victims, survivors and anybody else that was connected through this tragedy. The Nazis, came to “power” in January 1933, which was during a time Germany was going through an economic hardship. They believed that Germans were "racially superior" and that the Jews, were "inferior.” Adolf Hitler played a very big factor in everything that went down. Adolf Hitler was a German politician who was the leader of the Nazi Party and was also known as the dictator of the Holocaust. The Nazis did have others that were Hitler’s “army” and they took orders from Hitler to do awful things to the victims and they were commonly known as

All around us people are being discriminated for what they look or act like, the color of their skin, religion, and language. During the civil rights movement the citizens of the United States were fighting over equality.Unfortunately, a few people might have said they didn’t want African Americans in their country and that opinion spread to other people and the world of the African Americans was completely turned upside down. There is a similar story sorta like the civil rights movement and it was called the Holocaust. The Holocaust was where at one point the Jewish religion was considered “racist” and needed to be treated differently from other religions. Although, the holocaust and the civil rights movement based around two different groups of people and what happened to those people both talk about discrimination of both groups.

Over 11 million men, women and their children were killed during the Holocaust, but, more than half of them were Jewish. Innocent human beings were abducted and put into concentration camps from 1933 to 1945, where they were tortured and forced to work long hours, each day, without food or water. Eventually, more than half of the Jews were killed and only a small amount of them survived. The Holocaust happened because of one man’s plan to rid the world of all Jews. He was determined to succeed. Adolf Hitler began a movement that resulted in the execution of six million Jews.

The word Holocaust evokes negative thoughts in people's minds. If it does that now imagine how it was like living through that torment, and thinking I'm better off dead than alive, and watching yourself slowly dying as each day goes by.The Holocaust took place in the midst of a world war automaticity increasing its significance to people in the world. Around 11 million innocent lives were taken majority targeting the people of the Jewish religion, but Hitler's overall goal was to exterminate everyone

Around six million European Jews were killed (The Holocaust). The Holocaust was run by Adolf Hitler, and Hitler loved being on top (The Holocaust). The word Holocaust comes from holos which is whole, and kaustos which is burned (The Holocaust). Hitler’s army tried to keep all of the concentration camps a secret, but with all the killing they just couldn’t keep it from the world (The Holocaust).

July 1933, German camps held 27,000 people (The Holocaust). At the end of the war, Hitler commited suicide (The

The holocaust was a time of pure darkness. The German Nazi’s thought their race would be better off without Jews and so they decided to kill them off. The Nazi’s were a group who was under Adolf Hitler’s control and had the power to kill Jews. The Nazi’s were basically Hitler’s soldiers. Adolf Hitler was the current Chancellor of Germany during that time. The Nazi’s however did not only target Jews which accounted for nine million of Europe’s population alone, but also homosexual’s, Jehovah’s witnesses, Gypsies, disabled individuals, Poles, Soviet prisoners of war, communists and socialists. The holocaust plays a role in the start of World War II. During the war, the Nazi’s managed to wipe out hundreds of Jewish communities and ended up killing around six million people total. They used to make Jews wear a badge on their clothes when going anywhere to show everyone they were Jewish. It used to be a law for Jews to wear such garments up until the nineteenth century and if they failed to do so, there was severe punishment. This is how Nazi’s chose whom to persecute.

The Holocaust was one of the saddest moments in our history. The Holocaust was the destruction of a racial, ethnic, religious and national group. Approximately six million individuals were killed by the Nazi’s under the command of Adolf Hitler’s and his collaborators. Most of these killings took place throughout Germany. The Nazis only targeted three major groups for their killings: Jews, Gypsies and people with disabilities; such as metal illness, learning disabilities, physical deformity, epilepsy, blindness and deafness.

The Holocaust was an ultimate abomination of Nazi racism that occurred between 1938 and 1945. The word Holocaust derived from the Greek word holokauston, which stands for a burnt sacrifice that is offered whole to God. The word was chosen for this occurrence because of the amount of dead bodies that were cremated in open fires by Nazis. The Holocaust was known for the mass murders of European Jews that took place during the Second World War. European Jews were the fundamental victims during the Holocaust and seemed to be the most targeted. In 1933, approximately nine million Jews lived in Europe and settle in 21 different countries. It eventually would be seized by Germany during the Second World War. By 1945, around five or six million European Jews had been brutally murdered. A majority of them died in concentration camps that were build primarily for Jews. However, Jews were not the only victims that were persecuted by Hitler’s and his Nazi regime. A half million Gypsies, mentally or physically disabled persons, and Soviet prisoners from war were also discriminated victims to Hitler’s Nazi genocide. Jehovah’s Witnesses and homosexuals were also persecuted in Europe.

The Syrian refugee crisis has received massive media coverage. People around the world are trying to comprehend the desperate, complicated situation surrounding Syria. The civil war in Syria is the worst crisis in our time. Syrians upset at the fact that long promised reforms have not been enacted, began anti-government demonstrations which started the civil war in 2011. The peaceful protests turned ugly, with the government violently putting an end to those protests. Afterward, ordinary citizens took arms, causing the situation to escalate. Syrians are fleeing their homes because of the great violence, which have left thousands dead and millions wounded, a collapsed infrastructure, resulting in a shattered economy, and for the safety of the children.
