Holocaust

The Holocaust was the massive killing of Jews and undesirable people in Europe but also the world. The brains behind it all was Adolf Hitler who had a lot of hate towards the Jewish population and anyone who didn't look like the Aryan race. He wanted to make the Germans the dominant people in the World. He used a lot of methods to get rid of the Jewish and undesirables. His steps for non Jew people was; 1. deport undesirables to other countries but many believed they were not getting rid of the undesirables, they were just moving them and they had to exterminate them completely. 2. Sterilization of Jews. 3. Deport to walled in cities for disease and starvation to walk over. Hitler didn't find it efficient and it was too expensive. They had to build a wall and after wards had to burn the city down. 4. Mobile killing Units, which were also not approved by Hitler because they were "wasting" bullets in the people they killed. So, 5. were concentration camps and work camps. Jewish were put in small places where they wouldn't be fed much and would work for many hours without getting payed. In these camps, German doctors and scientists would use the Jews as science experiments and many of the experiments were horrendous but no one did anything because Jews were not considered equal to humans. But, again this process was not fast enough for Hitler and he went to the "Final Solution" which was very efficient. His final solution, I think were gas chambers. In a film I saw called "The Boy in The Striped Pajamas" it showed how the Jews were told they were going to take a shower in this chamber. When they were all inside, the people in charge would close the chamber and would gas the people inside. This was relatively efficient and it killed a lot of people in an instant and it was not expensive and afterwards they would simply burn the bodies.

To me this is very sad, I mean Hitler didn't even fit in with his perfect race. He also did horrendous things and didn't have anyone to stop him, he let his anger on the Jews and fooled the Germans completely. I just doesn't seem fare that he is killing millions of people for being Jews or disable. The person didn't choose to be that way and he was being very foolish for killing them. The way he was also killing them seemed inhuman to me. He would cramp them in small spacious and would barely feed them anything so they would starve to death. He would also use the Jews in human experiments that were very cruel. Many of the people used for the experiments would get killed from the experiments. Hitler could of been thrown out of power way before the start of World War II, he was in charge of Germany before the start of the War, which was the bloodiest war in human history, 70-85 million people killed! He was showing signs that he was not mentally stable but no mayor country listened to him and he was good in convincing the people in Germany that what he was doing was alright. He was there in the right timing, he took advantage of the Germans who were going through a hard time and make them cooperators of his sick plan against the Jews and undesirables.

  1. Overall great job on your blog post Alexandra. I liked the way that you had described how Hitler would try to remove the Jews out of Germany and the rest of Europe. Also how Hitler had different ways of killing the Jews in the concentration camps, and the SS troops shooting them in the heads and wasting bullets. I also agree with you that Hitler killed millions of people that he wanted others to look like the perfect race. Also agree with you that Hitler is killing millions of Jews and undesirables for being who they are. Overall this is a great blog post it had a lot of detail and it did get up to high expectations, overall great job.

  2. I also find it very dad that Hitler did bad things and killed a lot of children women, men, and those who were disable. I do not find this fair because it wasn't their fault that they were born disable , and they also did not do anything to the Germans and the Germans blamed the Jews for everything, so I truly find this very horrible. Overall good job Alexandra with your blog, you out very good detail into it.
