Holocaust

Christian X was king of Denmark during the holocaust. Although Denmark had a relatively low population of Jews, the government and citizen strongly supported them. Despite the Germans push in Denmark, the Danes were able to successfully save a vast majority of Denmark's Jewish population.

it basically disagrees with postmodernism; one can basically not apply postmodernism to the Holocaust (or one would have to conclude that the Holocaust did not exist). But this is exceptional and does not stop postmodernism being the more popular method.

The Holocaust made people question the idea of progress that was part of Modernism.

we can prevent another holocaust by not getting into hatred, not discriminating or being racist. If the Nazis realized everyone was equeal there wouldn't have been a first holocaust. And if we learn at an early age about how Hitler and the Nazi regime hated on Jews, maybe it will teach kids a lesson on how not to descriminate, be racist, or anything like that.

Because america was in war with japenese and once the americans captured the japenese,they putted them into concentration camps

_________________________

Japanese Americans were easier to identify than German Americans, so they could be interned easier. The US had a history of racism, especialli against Orientals, 1882 the Asian Exculsion act took away citizenship and all right of ownership from all Oriental Americans, the internent was just another part of the process.

Giorgio Perlasca

Giorgio Perlasca was an Italian who helped save thousands of Hungarian Jews from the Holocaust by issuing them fake passports to travel to neutral countries.

He died in 1992.

Otto Frank died of lung cancer on August 19, 1980, at age 91.

It sounds as if you are thinking of Elie Wiesel and the book Night. However, the award was not made simply for that one book. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, not the Nobel Prize for Literature.

About 75,000 Jews from Slovakia or 83 percent of the estimated Jewish

population were annihilated.

the same as ever, they did not change dress for Holocaust related duties.

they were forced to walk 200 miles to boot camp without drink or food and they didn't get rest and if you fell they killed you and left you there to rot

The groups that were sent to the concentration camps during the holocaust were Jews, Roma (gypsies), homosexuals, Soviet prisoners of war, Jehovah's Witnesses and many others.

The biggest Jewish uprising was the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising of April-May 1943.

There were also uprisings in other ghettos, including Bialystok and Vilnius and in the extermination camp at Sobibor.

The world was in the midst of the great depression. It is a commonly mistaken fact that the great depression only happened in the USA.The German peoples were angry that ther leaders had surrendered world war one. Hitler and the Nazi party, seized the chance, promising prosperity and rebirth to the German nation, promising they would fix everything, and restore everything that they had lost during world war one. They drove a huge propaganda machine of lies, which most people believed to be true. After the German people had finally figured out what was going on it was too little too late, the Nazi party had taken complete control of Germany and the military. Anyone who disobeyed or wasn't a "good" citizen was either shot or put into forced labor. The German peoples will never forget what Hitler did to them, nor how they let it happen, right in front of there eyes.

Why did so many Germans go along with the Nazis? What choice did they have? Men in the factories could refuse to pledge allegiance and then they would lose their jobs and their families would starve, or they could be "good Germans" and keep their jobs, at the cost of their integrity. When weighed integrity against your family your integrity has little meaning. Sure there was a possibility that others would stand with you but who is willing to risk their life thinking that maybe someone else will risk theirs along with you. The women also had little choice, after all they were women. They had few decisions and there is nothing that a woman considers more when she makes a decision than her children. No woman would take a risk of her child's life for freedom for someone else, that would be foolish. If there was any group with less choices then women it was children, they could not join the little Hitler fan club, but that was more a decision by their parents than their own. Children could speak out all they wanted, they were still just children. With Germany set up the way it was it was inevitable for someone like Hitler, with a party like the Nazis to come along and make a disturbance, there was no way for the people to stop it. Everyone had something to lose, and no one was willing to take the first step in opposition of Hitler. If one person had stepped forward maybe their family would have been killed, but two more men would step forward in their place until all of German rose up, but that's the problem with us, no on is ever willing to go first. I imagine this was a very hard place for some people to be, but they were there holocaust timeline. It's easy to criticize these men for not stepping forward but I doubt any man would sacrifice his family for anything. Sometimes people realize thing, but often too late to change anything, or so they think. Sometimes people need to put their foot down and say stop if they get rolled over, then they get rolled over. It is a chance people need to take to do what's right.

That would be Einsten who left Germany watching the military getting more rusbust and stronger. He had a idea far ahead that the Germany would be the greasted enemy of the Jewish community.

There will never be a conclusion to the Holocaust. 12 million people were murdered, that just can't be concluded. But I can tell you how it ended. When the Allied forces invaded Europe, they came across camps. When they found out they were concentration camps, they liberated the people still alive inside. The Nazi's had known that the Allies were coming, and tried to destroy the camps and all the people inside of them. They took prisoners on "death marches", forcing them to walk through snow and subzero temperatures without stopping, and with no food or water. Many dropped dead right in the snow. In all the camps, records and names were destroyed, which is why, to this day, there is no accurate information as to how many were slaughtered. Crematoriums and gas chambers were demolished, and the Nazi's evacuated, leaving the prisoners to die. The Nazi's who were found responsible for these crimes against humanity, were tried and sentenced in Nuremberg, Germany during the Nuremberg trials. However, many Nazi's escaped from Europe. One of the most famous Nazi's, Josef Mengele, escaped to South America. Many Nazi's and war criminals found sanction in South America.

The only conclusion I can reach is that 12 million people were murdered without cause. Those people to this day have not received justice for what they endured. And they never will.

Because Hitler had a particular dislike for Jewish people. He applied to an art school and was rejected by the (Jewish) headmaster. It seemed to him that most of the bad instances in his life were caused by Jewish people. He was essentially everything he sought to destroy. He wanted an Aryan race of blonde-haired, blue-eyed people, and he himself had brown hair and brown eyes.

The number per train varied, with about 700-800 a typical figure.

Try this link. Earlier question and answer along the same line. http://www.faqfarm.com/History/WWII/11889 There is no clear answer to this question. If you examine Hitler's policies you will discover that he did not have much, if any, original thoughts. He simply chose thinking that had been done previously and put them all togeter in his Nazi philosophy. Both Poland and Russia were persecuting the Jews before Hitler was born. Anti Jewish feeling existed in nearly every nation, including America. The degree of discrimination varied, but the dislike was not uncommon. Some influences that MAY have influenced Hitler were ... 1. The Great War (WW I) for Germany started falling apart when the German sailors refused to make a suicide voyage against the British. This mutiny involved both Jews and Communists. 2. Hitler was anti-Communist, a type of government invented by a Jew - Karl Marx. 3. The German government that surrendered to the Allies (the Weimar Republic) had Jews in its leadership at times. 4. When a child falls off a bike it is not uncommon to see them kicking the bike, as if it was the bike's fault they had an accident. Likewise it was convient for the Germans to kick the Jews and blame them for Germany's defeat and surrender. 5. The Christian religions blamed the death of Christ on the Jews. One can see in the Bible the statement that the Jews demanded the death of Jesus, and said, "let it be upon our heads and that of our children." This became an excuse to abuse the Jews for more than a thousand years. It was not until the 1960's (I think) that the Catholic Church stated that the Jews were NOT to blame for the death of Jesus. (Their statement was based on the idea that Christ died for the sins of ALL PEOPLE, therefore ALL those that sin are equally a cause of the death of Christ! 6. Hitler not only objected to the Jews, but also to Christanity as well. While the belt buckles of the Wehrmacht had the words: "God is with us" written on them. Hitler's god was not the same as we think of. He was going back, in his thinking to the time of the Vikings, and the pre-Christian Germans. To the ancient gods of the Germanic people. He tollerated the Christians only because he was not powerful enough to oppose them. But if one investigates the thinking of the SS troops they will find no Christian thinking, but only those of the ancient times. Well that is a little. It is a long and complicated subject. I hope this helps, John hitler was probably very jealous of the jews. While he was homeless it was the jews who helped him.in fact hilter even had jewish -don't laugh- friends.besides at that time a lot of people persecuted the jews.i just dont know the exact reason why he went againt the people who helped him.or why he killed so many. Hitler first of all was a mentally sick demon, wither nobody knows it or not. He had a schizophrenia. That is a mental illness in wich you have anxiety problems and your mind can't function right. He also had a grandmother who was a jew. I think his self hatred drove him crazy. He had the power so he took advantage. He was a sick digusting demon. I'm 12 yrs. old and I realize this.

The Nazi Nuremberg Laws of 1935 were denaturalization laws passed by the government of Nazi Germany. They used a pseudoscientific basis for racial discrimination against Jews. People with four German grandparents (white circles on the chart illustration) were of "German blood", while people were classified as Jews if they descended from three or more Jewish grandparents (black circles in top row right). One or more Jewish grandparents made someone "mixed blood." The Nazis used the religious observance of a person's grandparents to determine their race. The first law, The Law for the Protection of German Blood and German Honor, prohibited marriages and extra-marital intercourse between
