The Effect Of The Holocaust

The Holocaust occurred in 1941 - 1942. This event was significant because it had a lasting impact on the world especially Germany, Poland and other european countries. This led to significant political changes such as the united nations. Hitler was the reason there was a mass extermination of 60,000 people. The Holocaust had devastating short term effects such as loss of money, homes, food, hygiene and most commonly death also the separation of families and the horrific mass destruction on human life. The long term effects effected the survivors mentally and physically after the holocaust.

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,

Many religious conflicts are built from prejudice. However, only few will have a lasting effect on the world’s history. In Germany in the year 1933, a man named Adolf Hitler rose to power. His mission would be to “exterminate” all minorities, but most importantly, the Jews. "Holocaust" is a word of Greek origin meaning "sacrifice by fire". But as we now know in history, the Holocaust was the genocide of six million Jews by Hitler and the Nazi regime. Over the time of Hitler's reign, the Jewish population would be stripped of their rights, dignity, and most preciously their lives.

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

As Nobel Laureate Elie Wiesel once said, “To forget a Holocaust is to kill twice,” that is why we are called to remember. Many movies, novels, and story representations of the Holocaust have been created in order to spread the memory of the past. An important part of remembering is learning, and therefore not repeating the same mistakes once again. Movies may find it difficult to represent the Holocaust accurately, while also giving it meaning and artistic expression. The writer, Edwin de Vries, and the director, Jeroen Krabbé, strive to represent the legacies of the Holocaust and Jewish culture in the film, Left Luggage (1998), based on a novel by Carl Friedman through a portrayal of the daily lives of Holocaust survivors and their children in late 1960s Antwerp, their direct confrontations with their memories of the Holocaust, and character development. The film shows us many examples of the legacy of the Holocaust as it is passed through the children of survivors, and how it continues to affect their daily lives. The audience understands the intentions through depictions of muteness and the necessity to remember.

The Holocaust has impacted the world in various of ways. A plethora of Jews were displaced in Germany and severely harmed. The effects of the Holocaust can still be viewed in today's society. The Nazis believed that exterminating the Jews was justified because the Jews were not only a low and bad race, but were affecting the lives of the Germans negatively. Hitler and the Nazis blamed them for all the social and economic problems in Germany. Adolf Hitler then planned to get rid of the all Jews living in Germany, or all around Europe. After years of Nazi soldiers ruling in Germany, Jews were consistently persecuted severely. Hitler’s final solution became known as the Holocaust, under the cover of the world war, with mass killing centers constructed

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.

When people hate, destruction is the result of their hatred. The Holocaust was no exception to this. Hitler’s hatred for the Jewish people resulted in the Holocaust. The survivors of the Holocaust were effected in many ways. There were physical, mental, and emotional effects.

The Holocaust not only affected the areas where it took place, it affected the entire world. Even though Jewish people were the main victims in the Holocaust, it also left lasting effects on other groups of people. Both the Nazi and Jewish decedents still feel the aftermath of one of the most horrific counts of genocide that the world has ever encountered. The cries of the victims in concentration camps still ring around the globe today, and they are not easily ignored. Although the Holocaust took place during World War Two, the effects that it had on the world are still prominent today.

The holocaust had a major effect on Judaism as a whole. This conflict between tragedy and faith is not new. Jewish history shows us that the jewish people have undergone the most terrible persecutions and genocide at the hands of many oppressors. Whether it be about the pogroms, crusades, destruction of the Temples, the jewish people have been at the brunt of the most terrible atrocities, and yet this does not shake their faith,Anti-Semitism was nothing new. This became even more evident with the unmasking of the holocaust.The philosophical question of “Shall the Judge of the earth not do justice?” applies just as much to the seemingly useless suffering of an individual as to that of six million individuals. If it could be dealt with on an individual basis before the Holocaust, why couldn 't it be dealt with in the same way afterwards? The difference is one of quantity, but the quality of the question remains the same.

There are times in history when desperate people plagued by desperate situations blindly give evil men power. These men, once given power, have only their own evil agendas to carry out. The Holocaust was the result of one such man's agenda. In short simplicity, shear terror, brutality, inhumanity, injustice, irresponsibility, immorality, stupidity, hatred, and pure evil are but a few words to describe the Holocaust.

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.

Adolf Hitler came to power over Germany in January of 1933. He hated Jews and blamed them for everything bad that had ever happened to Germany. Hitler’s goal in life was to eliminate the Jewish population. With his rise to power in Germany, he would put into action his plan of elimination. This is not only why German Jews were the main target of the Holocaust, but why they were a large part of the years before, during, and after the Holocaust. Hitler’s “final solution” almost eliminated the Jewish population in Europe during World War II. At the end of the war and along with his suicide, the Jewish population would survive the horror known as the Holocaust and the Jews would eventually find their way back to their homeland of Israel

When learning about the Holocaust in school some teachers play videos or show pictures of the carnage of a concentration camp, all the student really sees are either walking skeletons or dead skeletons. Some soldiers say they can never forget the smell when they first walked into a camp, and thousands of people visit the remaining camps and feel as if they are walking through a cemetery, which they are really. It has been sixty years since the Holocaust ended, and over six million Jewish people died in some of the worst possible ways. There are very few survivors left today, and even after the camps were liberated the survivors were not treated humanely when they finally got to return home. After all they went through they should have had more support to help them after their ordeal, but to this day there are still people that deny that the Holocaust ever happened. Something as terrifying as the Holocaust should not be questioned because someone does not believe mankind is that cruel, that they just think survivors were mentally unstable and wanted to get publicity, and mainly the reason is that they are anti-Semitic. A person may not want to believe that mankind is that cruel, but they have to know that it happened because something that awful must be known to prevent it from happening again. Deborah Lipstadt’s podcast, “How Do You Stand Up to a Holocaust Denier,” focuses on what a person should do when encountering people that deny, not just the Holocaust, though that is

Where would you go if your home was taken from you? What would you do if you haven’t seen your home in five years? Millions were displaced. The survivors did not know where to go. Some didn’t even know what to call home. The main points I am going to focus on are: what happened after the Holocaust ended, Rebuilding Jewish Life after the Holocaust, and the Homeland, Israel.
