The Holocaust was a time of pain and death for Jewish Men, Women, and Children. Adolf Hitler was a leader to Millions of people in World War II. He also killed 'imperfect' people, also known as Jews. Many Jews had to shut down their businesses because of German laws. They could not listen to certain radios they were banned of some books, and Jewish kids were forced to go to Jewish schools. They also had certain curfews and had to wear the Star of David to indicate that they are a Jew. After some time, Hitler took over more land and started making Concentration Camps. Between the years of 1940 -1945, Jews were killed or starved to death in different concentration camps. During the year of 1945, Hitler was defeated and the Concentration Camps were emptied. Many survivors were forced to live in 'Displaced Persons' facilities.

Some teenagers or children that experienced the Holocaust may still be alive today.

The Holocaust also involved political prisoners, gays, lesbians and gypsies. Because of the horrific loss in shear numbers the Holocaust has become synonymous with the

"extermination" of Jews.

Why did Hitler make a mistake in invading the Soviet Union?

German troops were not prepared for the cold and by having to wait out winter they also were low on food supplies.Answer The answer is somewhat more complex than this. Hitler's main tactical mistake was the preoccupation with taking Stalingrad (because it bore Stalin's name) and Moscow (where Stalin was). Taking the oilfields in the south, and securing supply lines would have made victory against the Russians more certain. As an aside, the Russian campaign was delayed for some six weeks because Hitler sent troops to Greece after the Greeks routed the Italian invaders, so the Greek resistance to invasion may have changed the course of the war. The troops sent to Greece were needed for the invasion of Russia, and the delay was critical, with the onset of winter before German objectives (as illogical as they were) were attained.
