yes, he was important in Germany for a horrible reason. he was an antisemitic who became the dictator of Germany and started the Holocaust.
Anyone in hiding for a long period of time needs help from someone in the "world outside".
to leave no trace that anyone was there, that the holocaust never happened
No nobody has a right to do such a thing to anyone because of there race Germany made it leagel during the hol ocaust
I hope that studying the Holocaust is not making people anti-German. The majority of Germans were not alive at the time, or were too young to play any part in the Holocaust. Moreover, anyone who knows modern Germany will be aware that it is a thorougly democratic country, where human rights are respected.
yes. But specifically for them would mean discrimination, something that caused the atmosphere that allowed the Holocaust to happen. There are many organisations that have set up stipends for anyone wishing to study the Holocaust. But the idea that someone would want to cash in on the tragedy that happened to their parents is morally questionable.
Portland, Oregon is in the USA. The USA had no involvement in the Holocaust and as such did not lose anyone to the Holocaust.
The Holocaust was one of the worst times in history. People were moved from there homes and was not allowed to talk to anyone and many died of exposure, disease, and starvation.
The Holocaust took place in stages which followed on rapidly from one another. The formation of ghettos in Poland in 1939-40 with intolerable conditions wasn't a secret. The gassings were secret, but they were planned. Even if one takes a 'fuctionalist' view of the Holocaust, those who planned it must have known in advance.
It was an organized mass extermination of groups of people considered "undesirable" by Nazi Germany. Groups targeted included Jews, Catholics, gypsies, homosexuals, artists, academics, and anyone else the Nazis felt like eliminating.
right now it occurs in the survivors and to some degree in the surviving perpetrators. This of course depends uopn your definition of the Holocaust, if you believe that it stopped with the surrender of Nazi Germany and that anyone who died the next day did not die because of the Holocaust, then you would say that it does not occur anymore, but if you believe that it is still occuring until the last survivor dies, then it is occuring where they are.
The Holocaust was too big, covering many different types of people for anyone to work out who, where and when the 'they' that you refer to are.
