“If (the Holocaust) is something like a religion... that in a few years time no one will believe this particular legend anymore. They will say, as I do, that atrocities were committed. Yes, hundreds of thousands of people were killed, but there were no factories of death.” - David Irving (in a recent trial, suggesting Irving was an Anti-Semite, and associate with extremists who promote Neo-Nazism) What this quote is trying to suggest is that the Holocaust (Mass extermination of the Jews) never actually happened. The reliability of this source is poor, because the purpose of this source is Irving looking to promote Nazism, by attempting to disprove the Holocaust. I can also judge the reliability as poor, because I know from other sources and my own knowledge that there were indeed extermination camps.
The Holocaust genocide was the mass extermination of the Jewish population in Germany and other countries with German influences. The Darfur genocide that started in 2003 and ended when a peace agreement was signed in 2011 was when groups in Darfur accused the Sudanese government of oppressing non-Arab Sudanese people. These two cases are somewhat similar and different at the same time. The Holocaust was the mass murder of over six million Jewish people in German territories. The Holocaust started with Kristallnacht, which is “the Night of Broken Glass.” This occurred on November 7th, 1938.
He includes many references and photos to support his claims. One of the main reasons claimed the holocaust never happened is the survivors testimonies. None claim that bodies of their loved ones, after being exterminated in the gas chambers had and red coloring. It is proven that the body turns a red color after being subjected to carbon monoxide gas, which was used in gas chambers. There are no official autopsy reports from American doctors claiming that victims were gassed.
By the beginning of 1942 the Germans had close to 9 million Jews under their control (out of a total of 11 million Jews living in Europe and the Soviet Union). And, of course, it was their plan to murder them all. Already, the Einsatzgruppen killing squads had machine-gunned 1.5 million Jews, (as we saw in Part 60) but this was not an efficient way of killing so many more millions of people—it was too messy, too slow, and it wasted too many bullets. So the Germans embarked on a policy called the “Final Solution” which was decided upon at a conference held in Wannsee, near Berlin, on January 20, 1942: “Instead of immigration there is now a further possible solution to which the Fuhrer has already signified his consent. Namely deportation
The movie also shows how soldiers tried to keep what they were doing to the Jewish people a secret. People believe the holocaust didn't happen, also the Germans tried to hide what they were doing to the Jews. The magazines and newspaper failed to acknowledge what was happening in their paper. Although people believe the holocaust did not happen, it did, and a lot of Jewish people were murdered, even children were murdered. The main events were: 1.
| The Holocaust | The Tragic History of a Genocide | The Holocaust Final Draft The holocaust was an act of genocide carried out by Nazi Germany that took the lives of more than 6 million Jews (Sheehan 4). The exact number of victims is unknown but most of them died between 1939 and 1945, during World War II. What makes the holocaust different from other acts of genocide is not the number of people who died, nor the act itself, but the manner in which it was conceived and carried out (Sheehan 4). It was carried out in a planned and organized way. It was aimed at the total extermination of an entire race of people.
Most of these victims were almost all unarmed and had no organized act of aggression against the German state or society, but were simply targeted because of their Jewish heritage. Most Germans under Adolf Hitler came to believe that the Jews were the cause of all the German troubles and were blamed specifically for the worldwide Great Depression and Germany’s defeat in World War I. The Jews, of course, had nothing to do with these accusations and some historians have even argued whether or not the Jewish people were nothing more but a scapegoat to whip Germany into a nationalistic frenzy. My essay will prove that Hitler used nothing more than concocted racist propaganda, pseudoscientific theories and manipulated science such as perverting Darwinism and Aryan racial superiority myths, to brainwash the German people in supporting his hatred for Jews; which in turn, the effect of propaganda, combined with the anti-Semitic feelings that already existed in Europe, resulted in widespread ridicule, violence, humiliation, and persecution of Jews. This eventually
Normally Jews were killed in the chambers by carbon monoxide, but that was not enough for Hoess, he needed to go above and beyond with the way he exterminated an entire race. In 1941 he was given orders from Adolf Eichman of the “Final Solution” to the Jewish question. Rudolf Hoess was a Perpetrator for he conducted many acts that were morally wrong or criminal. Hoess’s original decision to join Hitler’s
Kristallnatch the prelude to the Holocaust, kristallnatch was an open attack on the Jewish community in Germany, named for the broken glass of the windows of Jewish businesses destroyed in that night. In this essay we will study the antecedents of kristallnatch, what happened in that night and what were the consequences of that act. Kristallnatch's Antecedents, with the night of broken glass began an open and systematic persecution of Jews on the 3rd reich. The 3rd Reich had been persecuting Jews but not openly, in 1938 20000 German Jews from polish origin were kidnapped and deported to Poland. On 7 November 1938, Grynszpan a Jew who had escaped to France shot Von Rath a secretary of the German Embassy in France for denying help to Grynszpan's parents who were deported to Poland.
And what they also deny is that the Nazis did not use gas chambers to mass murder the Jews. But that in fact did happen to them or they just some just pit them in those chambers
