Specifically, the Romans began to take the Jews rights to practice their religion. For example, the Romans prohibited the Jews from circumcising babies and reading Torah. As a result of these restrictions the Jews revolted against the Romans in the Great Jewish Revolt. The war lasted from 66-73 CE when the Romans defeated the remaining Jewish fighters. During this war the Jewish Temple was destroyed which created spiritual havoc throughout the Jewish world.
Hitler had already convinced Germany that Jews were a disgrace. He started the extermination by taking over Poland, a country with over three million Jews. Then, he continued taking over Belgium, Luxemburg, France, and Holland, placing every single Jew under Nazis control. Hitler and his people did not know what to do with the millions of Jews, so he proposed, and executed, the Final Solution. This means, kill them all!
Although terrorism in Palestine was an important factor, saying it was 'the most important' factor is debatable. Zionist terrorist groups intent on the creation of a Jewish homeland such as Irgun and the stern gang played an important role in the creation of an independent state of Israel it was not the most important. Two of the most notable terrorist attacks were the bombing of the king David hotel in 1946 and the hanging of the two British soldiers. In July 1946 the Irgun bombed the king David hotel, killing 91 people including 15 Jews, this attack weakened the morale of the British in Palestine and in Britain, this meant that the public wanted the soldiers to come home and this put pressure on the government to withdraw and led to them handing Palestine over to the UN in 1948. Arguably the role of the UN was the most important factor in the creation of Israel.

Dr. Jacobs was able to discuss how these laws originally came into place. We first discussed how in the early 18th century there was an Emancipation of the Jewish community, allowing Jews to become citizens and own property. About mid-nineteenth century, Anti-Semitism of Jews was beginning to rise again and this eventually led to the end of the emancipation of the Jews community in German in 1993 (lecture Jacobs). German protestors at the time, wanted to ban same sex marriages between the “non-Aryans” and the “Aryan” race, but this was not fully enforced until 1935 when the Nuremburg laws officially passed. This Law was to be known as “The protection of German Blood and Honor”(Lecture).
He lives in Sighet, Romania, with his parents and three sisters, two older and one younger than he. A bright and studious child, Elie is curious about the Jewish religion. Wanting to learn about the Talmud and the Cabbala, he turns to Moshe the Beadle, a worker in the synagogue, for guidance and religious instruction. The Germans, under the guidance of Hitler, seize Romania and occupy Sighet. Elie, like all of the Jews, is made to wear a yellow star to identify him as Jewish.
He is the creator of Zionism. Herzl devoted his life to creating the necessary political framework to achieve his goal of an independent Jewish state. He knew that the first step to creating a Jewish homeland had to be an international Jewish institution responsible for funding and organizing the new nation. After two years of being turned down by major Jewish philanthropists who viewed him as a zealous madman, Herzl presented his plan to the Jewish people.

The Nazi’s encouraged the rioters and when they did that, the rioters destroyed 267 synagogues; vandalized or looted 7,500 Jewish businesses; 30,000 male Jews sent to concentration camps and killed at least 91 Jewish people were killed.

He blamed wealthy Jews for trying to secretly rule the world through control of banks and other international financial institutions. He blamed Jews for new cultural changes that he saw as threatening to traditional German cultural values and traditions. He blamed Jews for Communism because the founder of the Communism, many leaders of the Russian Revolution and of the German Communist Party were Jewish. Nazi policy towards Jews (1933 - 1939): Nazi policy towards Jews between 1933 to 1939 was based on pressuring all the Jews of Germany to leave the country.
How The Holocaust Was Made Possible The holocaust, or Shoah was a systematic, planned program of genocide to exterminate all Jews (Bauer 1982). Hitler - and his allies in the Nazi army carried out this government-based program during World War II (Bauer 1982). Approximately six million Jews were killed, and if the murder of the Romani, Soviet civilians and prisoners, the disabled, homosexuals, and others who opposed to Hitler’s religious, political and social views were counted, this number would be more like eleven to seventeen million (Dawidowicz 1975). The Holocaust was one of the twentieth century's greatest tragedies that was made possible by widespread anti-Semitism, corrupt politics and an outright fear of mass extermination. On November
