The Holocaust was the organised murder and persecution of roughly 6,000,000 Jews by the Nazis. The Nazi party came to power in 1933 and they believed the Germans were a superior race. This meant the Jews, Gypsies, Slavic and disabled people were inferior. The Nazi influence spread across Europe and 2 out of every 3 European Jews were killed. The Nazis led by Adolf Hitler changed the Constitution so that they could make laws without a vote and whenever they wish.
So Auschwitz differed from most of the other camps. 13) The term suggests, that there was a real problem and that other solutions had been tried seriously but had failed. From 1933-1939 the Nazis tried to bully the German Jews into leaving the country. 14) The Nuremberg Laws of 1935 established the following categories: 'Full Jew': Three or more Jewish grandparents 'Mixed race 1st degree': Two Jewish grandparents 'Mixed race 2nd degree': One Jewish grandparent 15) Yes. 16) They considered the Jews a race whose goal was world domination and who, therefore, were an obstruction to Aryan
Violent resistance by the Jews against the German forces also occurred in concentration camps. At some concentration and extermination camps including Treblinka extermination camp and Auschwitz, there were staged uprisings against the Nazis. This was in opposition to the Nazi practices of underfeeding, overworking, abusing and murdering Jews. In most cases, weapons were smuggled by Jews from munitions factories at camps, although grenades and arms were sometimes hand-made. The intention of these efforts was to kill
Describe why the Munich Putsch failed in 1923 In 1923 Hitler’s plan to overthrow the government and create an uprising known as the ‘Munich Putsch’ failed. The Munich Putsch was a fiasco. It had been a bad idea, badly planned and badly executed. Firstly, Hitler was still relatively unknown and new to the political scene, with minimal support whereas the current government had the support of the police and army. Hitler had assumed the army and police would support him and join in with the putsch however they stayed true to the Weimar republic.
Despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, some conspiracy theorists believe that the deliberate extermination of 6 million Jews in the Nazi concentration camps is simply a conspiracy intended to discredit Hitler. They do not deny that Jews were interned in prison camps during World War II but argue that the number of deaths was greatly exaggerated. They say that the pictures of emaciated people and bodies stacked like cord wood were actually of Poles and Germans who died of typhus rather than being the victims of mistreatment. They maintain that gas chambers were just a rumor. To buy into this revisionist view one would need to discount the mountain of pictorial and first-hand witness evidence available, but that’s never stood in the way
Dachau: The Beginning of Hitler’s Concentration Camps Kristal Smith Argosy University Abstract Dachau death camp was the one and only that existed throughout the twelve-year time of National Socialist autocracy. Throughout this time, the amount and structure of the camp detainees fluctuated as completely as the states of their life and shots of their survival.in the time of time between the opening of the camp March 22, 1933 and the Anschluss of Austria in February 1938 Dachau held just German natives. Basically they were political adversaries of the National Socialists, yet too camp held Jehovah's Witnesses who rejected military administration, Jews, "languid" (who decline to work), and wrongdoers sentenced to discipline in reformatory
Then, Hitler took office as Chancellor of the Third Reich. The Gypsies were “officially identified as non-Aryan by the Nuremberg Law of 1935”. According to Hitler and most Germans, Gypsies were considered to be asocial and second-class citizens. This is considered of all Gypsies, even those who haven’t been charged with any crimes. Gypsy children also were no longer allowed to attend school (Pottanat 2).
Fdsfsadf sdWHEREAS the media uses the historically erroneous terms "Polish concentration camp" and "Polish death camp" to describe Auschwitz and other Nazi extermination camps built by the Germans during World War II, which confuses impressionable and undereducated readers, leading them to believe that the Holocaust was executed by Poland, rather than Nazi Germany, WHEREAS these phrases are Holocaust revisionism that desecrate the memories of six million Jews from 27 countries who were murdered by Nazi Germany, WHEREAS Poland was the first country invaded by Germany, and the only country whose citizens suffered the death penalty for rescuing Jews, yet never surrendered during six years of German occupation, even though one-sixth of its population was killed in the war, approximately half of which was Christian,
This is a condensed part of the code of ethics taken by medical professionals. Not all the Nazi doctors during that time had bad intentions or deserved to be labeled as “killers”. Some of them took mercy on many prisoners in a more indirect way. They would diagnose them with a less severe diagnosis than it really was, releasing patients to their families, or keeping them in university hospitals instead of sending them to state hospitals. These doctors were in a no-win situation because Hitler was ordering all people that fell in a certain category to be executed or become one of the Guinea pigs for the experiments.
Concentration Camps During the Holocaust, there were a total of twenty-two main concentration camps along with thousands of smaller camps. It is almost impossible to find the exact number of victims of the concentration camps. Concentration camps refer to camps in which people are detained or confined under harsh conditions and without regard to legal norms of arrest and imprisonment that are acceptable in a constitutional democracy. The first concentration camp, Dachau was set up in 1933, and continued till 1945. Concentration camps were multifaceted and complex camps that had no regard for human life and played an important role during the Holocaust.
