they were the ones that looked like ethiopean children
so that people would be able to know what happened.
Just a few. How could anyone know accurately?
The word "Holocaust" means a huge and terrible fire. It probably came into use as a reflection on the incinerating of victims after being gassed, and the burning down of so many Jewish businesses and synagogues. Jewish people do not call it the "Holocaust", they call it the "Shoah", though I don't know what that word means in Hebrew.
Most of us are too young to remember the victims, all that we can do is learn about what happened.
the bodies they could find and identify. not all the people in the holocaust were put in the museum because some bodies were so destroyed they didn't know who they were.
Because the Jewish people were the ones targeted, persecuted and murdered by the Nazis during the holocaust. Hitler declared his disdain for the jews, therefore his army, under his orders, slaughtered them by the millions. There were only a few of Hitler's soldiers that secretly despised what Hitler was doing and what he stood for, but the majority of Hitler's army took a perverted pleasure in the torture, mutilation, and murder of millions of innocent people just because they were Jewish. No other people (that I know of) were targeted by the Nazis like the Jewish people were. It made no difference to them if they killed infants and children, women or men.
To survive in a Camp, you had to forget tomorrow, you had to forget your family, or your past. Think of NOW, nothing else, and unless you were picked for death when on a parade, or died from disease, or lack of food, you might, just might, live until tomorrow. People who thought about tomorrow, or their past, or their families, died...they just died, sometimes for no real reason such as being beaten by the guards. They died because their 'spirit' was broken. They 'thought' too much. You had to keep your spirit, your humanity, you had to accept what was going on around you, and think of NOW.
of the over four million names of victims that we know, this is not one of them.
The usa. turned away the jewish people who wanted to come here. So, thatdid not make America so holy
Because it was the Jewish symbol, so you know who was a Jew.
"Jews during the Holocaust were required to wear the yellow star to let everybody know that they were Jewish." Nope, the six sided yellow star, though it doesn't have to be yellow, is the Star of David, and it is the symbol of the Jewish religion.
I only know a couple.Israel,Russia,Germany,North America.___All countries under Nazi rule. This did not include Israel or the US. The countries with the highest numbers of Holocaust victims were:Poland (about 2.9 million Jews)Hungary (about 450,000 Jews)
