Hitler and the Nazis were responsible for what later came to be called the "Holocaust" (a term not in common use when the mass murders were taking place). During the Holocaust, there was mass extermination of Jews (as well as, to a lesser but still important degree, Gypsies, people with disabilities, and political dissenters). This was what Hitler called the "Final Solution," since he believed (and many Germans went along with his belief) that all of Germany's problems should be blamed on the Jews, who only made up perhaps 5% of Germany. Among the places where Jews were murdered were gas chambers and concentration camps. These included Auschwitz-Birkenau, Belzec, Chelmno, Majdanek, Sobibor, and Treblinka. Six million Jews were slaughtered by the Nazis: men, women, children, infants--just because they were Jews.
While many of us find it is amazing that such a question could be asked today, it is sad to note that in some parts of the world (especially in some Muslim countries), it is typically taught that the Holocaust never happened, even though there is a massive amount of documentation for what the Nazis did. There are also some Americans who persist in believing the Holocaust never happened. Such people are called "Revisionists" or "Holocaust Deniers."

∙ 13y agoHitler intended to and nearly did wipe-out the Jewish race of people by a policy of state sanctioned murder.
The war results in Anti - Semitic polices becoming even more extreme.In 1940 the Nazis considered sending the Jews to the island of Madagascar, just of the east coast of Africa.However this plan was abandoned. As Germany made progress in the war and conquered Eastern Europe, the German armed forces came into contact with huge new areas of Jews in Poland and Russia. The Nazis now had to decide what to do with the Jews. They then put them in Ghettos - The ghettos were sealed off by a three metre high wall so nobody could get in or out without permission. These areas where small areas round different parts of the cities and were very cramped.
BETWEEN 1939 - 1941 AS MANY AS 600,000 OF POLAND'S TWO MILLION JEWS DIES IN THESE GHETTOS !!!
