Rather, they were the victims of Germany's deliberate and systematic attempt to annihilate the entire Jewish population of Europe, a plan Hitler called the “Final Solution”. Background
Hitler deliberately expressed his hate toward Jews and gave ample warnings, as it was all written down in his autobiography “Mein Kampf”. In 1935, the introduction of the Nuremberg Laws stripped German Jews of their citizenship and civil rights. Jewish rights were steadily restricted, as in many cases Jewish political and intellectual leaders were the first to be sent to concentration camps. The Night of Broken Glass, on November 9, 1938 lead to the death of approximately 100 Jews, while other 30,000 were sent to concentration camps. Jewish businesses along with almost every synagogue in Germany were damaged or completely destroyed.
This is an outrage to all of people in the world. Hitler causes total annihilation to the jewish race because of racism and hatred. Death camps come along. And jews in camps die from starvation and gas chambers. "Holocaust: Estimated Deaths of Jews and Gypsies."
They attempted to kill all of the Jewish people. This is called genocide. Genocide is when a certain person or group (Nazis) tries to exterminate an entire race or ethnic group. They wanted to do this because the Nazis thought that the Jews were inferior, and they saw them as a threat to Hitler’s rain of terror. At this time there were 9 million Jews in Europe.
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!
Racism and prejudice have been going on for years, but what will never be forgotten is the time when the entire Jewish population went under an almost complete genocide. After the war the Germans sought for a way out of bankruptcy and starvation until one day they found it. Adolf Hitler turned the Germans against the Jewish and used them as a scapegoat out of their problem. The Germans believed that they were the superior race so they used many methods to kill the Jews such as shooting, starving, overworking and even gassing. Even though people remember the Holocaust, racism and prejudice are in a fight to be stopped.
Running Head: Nazi Science Nazi Science: Good or Bad Science? Sonya Blanton Argosy University English 102 Composition 2 Professor Jaclyn King October 8, 2014 Nazi Science 2 Nazi Science during the Holocaust came about mainly by Germans murdering approximately six million Jews for experimental reasons. The Nazi doctors performed many experiments on patients also known as victims on the basis of ethnicity, disability, or if they were located in a prison or concentration camp, and these experiments were initially developed because they wanted to try and improve the survival of people. Not all the Nazi doctors during that time had bad intent and deserve to be labeled as “killers”. Most will argue that Nazi Science has no medical bearings
Unfortunately, the products fabricated for the Nazis by Siemens and Ford both spawned a way for the genocide of the Jews seeing that transportation and a death location were necessary for mass murder. It has been brought to our attention that if both, Ford and Siemens had not been involucrated in the Holocaust, the amount of deaths would not have been as massive and perhaps might have occurred much more differently than we remember it today. Crucial factors such as the weapons and products provided how the companies benefited, and if compensation was reached can help determine which companies really encouraged the tragic transformation of the Holocaust.

This caused the Germans to go on a murderous spree, they burned down one-hundred-ninety-one synagogues and one-hundred-ninety-one house and apartments. By the end of their spree they killed ninety-one Jews, seriously injured thirty-six, and sent thirty-thousand Jews to concentration camps ( Byers 30 ). There were many concentration camps in Europe one of which ,Auschwitz's, had three main camps; Auschwitz I was known as a concentration camp, Auschwitz II was known as Birkenau the extermination camp, and Auschwitz III was known as Monowitz the slave camp ( Blohm 51). Sadly many Jewish men and women were worked to death, and later on they would be known as death camps. These women and men were not given clothes to keep them warm or heat during winter.
The Warsaw Ghetto Uprising Preceding World War II, the Nazi party in Germany rose to power and, under Adolf Hitler, committed the largest genocide the world has ever seen: the Holocaust. The ideology of the Nazi party led to the discrimination and extremely harsh persecution of the Jewish people, as well as many others who did not seem fit for the perfect German race. Jews, as well as the handicapped, homosexual, disabled, and so on, were sent to concentration camps where they were forced to perform manual labor and then killed. However, before the Nazis sent the Jews to concentration camps, they set up ghettos throughout German-controlled territory in Europe. The largest of these ghettos was the Warsaw Ghetto, located in Poland.
