Abstract
The purpose of this research paper is to prove that what Adolf Hitler did during World War II is easy to criticize. Hitler caused the deaths of almost 13 million people, 6 millions of these people being Jewish. According to “Concentration” (2017), concentration camps were used as mass murder sites of targeted groups who were deemed a threat for political reasons. However, some people argue that concentration camps were used like science labs and that Hitler had Dr. Joesph Mangella do experiments to figure out how to create one pure German race. Hitler also was following the idea of Social Darwinism, which was a very prominent idea during this time (Bergman 1999). Considering these points, this research proves that Adolf Hitler did horrible things during World War II and his actions were not justified by anything.

Hitler became chancellor in Germany in January 1933, with many revolutionary ideas. However, the ideas that Hitler and his Nazi party had are what led to the beginning of World War II. Adolf Hitler contributed to the murder of over 13 million people, 6 million of them being of the Jewish religion. He single-handedly wiped out 1/3 of the entire Jewish population. He created laws that targeted Jews specifically and made concentration camps for anyone that didn’t fit his “master race” to be tortured and executed (German 2017).
Adolf Hitler had millions of people murdered because of their beliefs or the way they looked. In total, he had over 13 million people killed. This included over one-third of the entire Jewish race. He did many truly awful things to these
Hitler started off as failed artist who wasn’t amounting to much in his life until he was made chancellor and used the Nazi party to build a racist state in Germany. Hitler started by promising people basic necessities to gain support. Then the power started to rush to his head when Nazi’s started to belittle non-Aryans and made stereotyping part of the curriculum for school children. He made Jewish people wear the star of David on their arms and if they owned a business, they had to put signs in their windows saying that they were Jewish. The Nazi party used Jewish people as a major scapegoat for their economic issues like the Great Depression and World War Two. It even got to a point where Hitler passed laws striping Jews of their basic rights.
Adolf Hitler was a German politician in the 1900s. He was the leader of the Nazi Party and Chancellor of Germany from 1933 to 1945. He was important because he was the dictator of Nazi Germany and started World War II when he invaded Poland, seeking “living space” for Germans. He also directly caused the Holocaust. Hitler affected Europe as a result of the war he started. It ended with massive devastation;over 60 million people were killed and millions of Europeans were left homeless. The European economy collapsed as a result of World War II, and the United Nations was formed because of the
Studies of the Holocaust have provoked passionate debates. Increasingly, they have become a central topic of concern for historians particularly since the early 1970s, as the Holocaust studies were generally limited. However, one of the most intense debates surrounding the role played by Hitler in the ’Final Solution’. That is, whether and when Hitler took a decision to initiate the extermination process. Of course, this issue has caused incredible controversy and naturally such a contentious topic of debate has radically produced large amounts of new data and literature. Conflicting, an interpretation has caused further disparities between historians over Hitler’s role in the Holocaust. For this
One major, controversial event that occurred during the WWII was the Holocaust. There has been much debate about the causes of the Holocaust, as many factors have been discussed. Therefore, this investigation will assess to what extent was Hitler the cause of the Holocaust. The four factors that will be assessed will be the widespread anti-Semitism, the role of Hitler himself, the demonizing of Jews made by the state churches and the Treaty of Versailles.
In the past, Hitler, a German politician, has had a dark ambition which has consequently led to the death of 60 million people in the second world war. After he became to hold the authority of Nazi, he still had a desire to rule over a majority of Europe. Therefore, he began to invade other countries and started a war. As well for personal greed, he had eliminated all the Jewish people by setting up the concentration camp that has tortured Jewish tremendously. He has commenced all the brutal activities to give German and himself indulgent lives.
Hitler in full power created laws, one of his laws was on how Jewish people citizenship and prohibiting marriage or sexual relations with people of "German or related blood”. Thus, started the concentration camp movement, Jews, Communists, Gypsies, homosexuals and others were sent to the camps. Hitler was known as a “monster” for his masterplan to eliminating the Jews. He ended over 11 million lives for no reason what so ever, just for what he believed. With such twisted morals, Hitler and his Nazis persecuted based off religions, cultures and beliefs. The holocaust was an insight for him as the “Final Solution” for his own benefit on what he believed in and his hatred towards Jews and others.
Hitler's policies precipitated World War 11, which also led to the Holocaust. The Holocaust was a war that caused the death of six million Jews. After defeat Hitler and his wife Eva Braun had committed suicide. In conclusion, because Hitler was influenced by so many things, it led to so many bad things including
As Hitler rose to power he started to make changes and one of them was rounding up the jews, putting them in concentration camps, and getting rid of them, as well as starting WW2 as they conquered land stolen from them from the first world war.. Many thought that Hitler was wrong for these events but Hitler saw good in what he
1939- 1945 was a dark time, not only for 6 million Jews who were slaughtered, but also for Gypsies, physically and mentally disabled patients, and homosexuals. All of these deaths were at the hands of one man who was in control of Nazi Germany during this time. His name was Adolf Hitler, a World War 1 veteran obsessed with creating the perfect race (Aryans) and who had a person bone to pick with the Jews because he believed they were the reason that Germany lost the First World War. He justified all of his actions by believing that he was doing Gods’ will because Hitler was Christian. In the end, Adolf ended his own life, while in his personal underground bunker, before he was able to be tried for his crimes.
During 1933 to 1945, Adolf Hitler created the holocaust and started World War Two as a effective cruel method to gain power through controlling people. He had lost the parliament vote, but at the end he had gained dominance of the whole party. It was a horrific, dreadful event with over 60 million unfortunate deaths, especially the fact that over 20 million innocent Jews were executed. Hitler created concentration camps, which included gas chambers and crematoriums. These devices were used against the Jews and other people.
Adolf Hitler is very much known for his barbaric deed and responsibility of the Holocaust-- possibly the most disturbing and most horrifying event to be recorded in history. The holocaust systematically killed over six million Jewish people, including over 1.5 million children that were victimized through a number of arguments that many believed was the cause for the destruction. It is difficult to conclude an overriding reason why the holocaust happened, although it is argued, however, that the imminent effect of the psychological state of mind of Hitler, along with the German citizens at the time, had a massive effect on what happened and what could have been prevented. Hitler’s anger and the country’s general
Even though there is an abundance of evidence proving the Holocaust occurred, revisionists still think this event is controversial. As explained by Arthur Butz, from the Journal of Historical Review, Holocaust revisionists can be defined as any person that does not necessarily believe that the Holocaust occurred (1991). These groups of people tend to believe anything besides the point of complete German destruction of an entire race. The Holocaust will always be remembered as a low point in our world’s history.
Mass genocides have haunted the world in history; millions of innocent lives have been taken due to selfish acts of tyrant governments. During the mid-twentieth century Europe faced a massive genocide that preyed on certain demographics. Adolf Hitler, the leader of Nazi Germany, was the sole mastermind that created the environment of racism, sexism, and the fear of certain religions and lifestyles, which was the underlined reason for the genocide we now know as the Holocaust.
During the war Hitler gained extreme nationalism for Germany. After WWI Hitler worked for the DAP, which later turned into the Nazis. When working for the DAP Hitler adopted their ways. He actually designed the Nazi symbol. Hitler became known for his powerful speeches against the Treaty of Versailles. In 1921 he became the chairman of the Nazis. During the Great Depression Hitler had a great political opportunity. Hitler was titled chancellor of Germany to promote political balance. On July 14, 1933 Hitler’s Nazi party was declared the only legal political party in Germany. From 1933-1939 Hitler made laws and policies to exclude jews from society. On September 1, 1939 Germany invaded Poland, and because of that Britain and France declared war on Germany and WWII officially started. In the beginning of WWII Hitler started the Holocaust. Hitler put Jews in concentration camps and thousands of them were gassed. Hitler made over 40,000 camps. The Holocaust was the main reason for deaths during
During World War 2, Adolf Hitler had all power. He was a cruel man, that did random acts of hatred towards the people he thought didn’t belong in his country, the Jews and people that were just different. He started something known as the Holocaust. What he did seemed really wrong to us, but to him, it was nothing but trying to make everyone there the same. Hitler killed these innocent people in inhumane ways, such as gas chambers, death camps, or shooting them right on the spot. These people also had to suffer tremendously by getting separated from their families, hunger, disease, illness, and dehydration.
