Why was Oskar Schindler able to hide Jews right under the noses of the Nazis?

He didn't exactly "hide" them. In the movie Schindler's List, he starts out wanting to buy an enamelware factory so he can continue his lifestyle of money, wine, and women.

Schindler hires Jews because his account, Stern, tells him, "They're cheaper than Poles." Schindler didn't want to spend a ton of money on workers, but after seeing the ghetto being liquidated (emptied) and the horrible, nauseating treatment Amon Goeth bestows upon the Jews, he begins to find ways to bring as many Jews into his factory as he can.

It's a really great movie, and it really helps you understand the Holocaust from a different point of view. I would suggest it if you're interested.

When did Oskar Schindler join the Nazi party?

Answer Oskar Schindler/Nazi PartyMy research has shown that Oskar Schindler joined the National Socialist (Nazi) Party in 1939. He applied for membership Feb. 10, 1939 and his membership was granted and he was member number, 6,421,477. He was appox. 31 years of age at the time he joined. He was very charismatic and stood in good stead with many influential Nazi people at that time in Germany. This, plus his obvious wealth, courage, and humanitarian conscience helped him save approx. 1200 Jewish people from death, whom he employed in his enamel-ware factory in Krakow, a short distance from the Plaszow concentration/death camp, where the infamous SS officer, Amon Goeth was commandant. This was portrayed in the Steven Speilberg movie "Schindlers' List" based on the book "Schindlers Ark" by Tom Keneally. (Schindlers original member Nazi party card is still held in the archives of the Berlin Documents Centre (B.D.C.) in Berlin Germany) .Oskar Schinldler has been buried on the Catholic cemetery on Mt.Zion, in Israel. (It also must be known that many historians agree that Schindler joined the Nazi party primarily for personal gain from the status and contacts this afforded him business-wise and maybe not for any reasons of personal belief in anti-semitism or other Nazi idealologies.)

5. Maikop and Grozny oil fields

these 5 locations were Adolf Hitler's main goals because, apart from Moscow all were key soviet resource areas. Stalingrad and Leningrad both mass produced tanks, at the end of World War 2, these 2 areas would of produced other 50% of the Soviets entire supply of tanks. The oil fields were the USSR's main Oil Supplies, without this the Soviets wouldn't be able to defend nor counter attack the Germans. The Baltic Sea was a key transport link of goods throughout the USSR and the world. Moscow was the capital of the USSR, so if Germany occupied that then the rest of the USSR would of likely to fall.
