♥ Deniers of the Holocaust
♥ Written By Ted Gottfried
♥ The section I read this morning was on a confessed Hitler follower. His name was Buford O’Neal Furrow who was about thirty-seven when he walked into a Los Angeles Jewish community center in August 1999 and fired seventy bullets. Luckily, no one died but he wounded five people. One of his victims, three young boys, a sixty-eight year old receptionist, and a teenage camp counselor. One of the victims, a five year old was seriously wounded. Furrow thought he indeed killed the five people in the Jewish community center and he turned himself in. He walked into the Las Vegas Police Department and told them, “You’re looking for me- I killed the kids in Los Angeles.” He said he did it as “a wake-up call to America to kill Jews.” Furrow’s part of a hate group named the Christian Identity Movement, which is number one on FBI’s list of most dangerous hate groups. This hate group provides assurance to its’ members that they are working under the authority of God’s Law. One of their activities is spreading the lies of the Holocaust deniers.
Hitler shot himself. On May 2 the Germany armies in Italy surrendered. Between 5.1 and 5.8 million people were murdered. The Nazis also murdered over 200,000 European Gypsies and hundreds of thousands of Russians, Poles, and members of resistance movements. Man German soldiers were killed or captured. The SS destroyed what papers they could and killed all of the sick and weak prisoners they could find. One of the most obvious effects of the Holocaust on survivors was that almost all of them were sick, starved, and homeless. Auschwitz was just one of six death camps created to carry out Hitler’s “Final Solution”. Many spoken and written records from survivors of Auschwitz also exist. Hitler was born in Austria, 1889. Germany had been defeated in World War 1, which ended in 1918. Germany became a democracy known as the Weimar Republic. The German people were won over by his confident promises of prosperity. Hitler blamed the Jews for Germany’s troubles. Not all Germans supported Hitler. Many lost their lives for criticizing him and for attempting to end his cruel regime. In the years between 1933 and 1939, Jews in Germany were persecuted.
Victims of the Holocaust
This book shows a picture of a woman pleading to an officer not to die. She is facing execution. She is standing in the snow and does not have clothes that will keep her warm at all.
Selection was the most fearful thing because no one ever knows who will survive or who will be dead within hours. When they all arrive at camps, they were forced to pass though lines of guards holding clubs and hitting them at random. Men, Women, Children, Infants and Old people were all seperated.
Those who survive selection have to strip naked, get all their hair shaved off, and taken disinfection showers. Those who survive selection have jobs. They must carry out dead bodies from the showers, some even have to carry their own family members. Whats worse is that they don't even have regular graves, you just pile your family member onto the other dead people. No ceremony, just move on and try to survive. Dead bodies get piled onto forklifts and then sent to cremetories. Workers would have to sort out the belongings, wash the clothing, and pack up items that could be sent back to Germany for warmth against the winter cold.
Germants got the prisoners wealth by telling them that they would be relocated to a better place and to take their best belongings with them. Instead, they would be sent to death camps and the Nazi's would take their valuables.
This is very tragic to me, its so hard to believe how much the Germans did to the Jews. They treated them like they were not humans, like it was fun and exciting.
The name of the book that I read is the Heroes of the Holocaust and I raed the second section of it. This book shows a lot of details of all the things that the Germans went trough. This book also shows the way that Hitler would trick the Germans. He would poison their heads and tell them lies about the Jews. The conflict between the Germans and the Jews started since the war world . The book also shows how the Germans fight dirty. They had conflict between each other for a long time. The conflict started getting worse after the Jews started doing the jobs that the Germans wouldn’t do. At this time many Jews worked as storeowners. There wee few vehicles left to carry food. So the food was more expensive and the Jews owned stores would have to charge more for the food. So this is another thing that the Germans got the Jews for. The Germans would say that the Jews were trying to get rich and that’s why they charged so much for the food. The book also has several pictures one of the picture shows a big fat Jew and that is the way that they would represent them. I think that it is sad that the Germans followed after Hitler.
Section title: What is a holocaust
Picture description: The picture has people that had been killed.
Summary: This section was about how holocaust got its name. This name was given to the genocide of European Jews in world was 2.The holocaust people were people that were treated has slaves also the people that suffer most of the time including homosexuals. Holocaust people would died of hunger, or they either would killed them, about six million Jewish civilians men,women,children,and old people were killed by the Nazis and their collaborators. For people that were to escape were fired upon with machine guns until all the Jews were dead. What I think about this section is that they were treated worse that the slaves in Africa and other places. Because some of the slaves were in the cold and the other one just work in both of the weathers(cold,hot).
The book I’m reading this morning is called “prelude to the Holocaust” when you first start reading the book it just talks about how the holocaust was what did it meant to the people it say that back in the time the word holocaust mean “an offering to the gods that was completely burned away know it means the destruction that the Nazis did to the Jews. It talks about where the holocaust took place and when it says that the holocaust was in during world war II. But the Jews were persecuting and killing since the Nazis came to power in 1933. But the Nazis were trying to cover all the killings they did during the world war II instead it help them cover a lot of things because of the war. People were trying to figured out how many people died in this time they say that around six millions Jews were murdered. Theirs a picture in this book that show a picture of a family there is 14 members and in the picture it say that the only the two babies that are their survived that rest of the members died. It says the Jews were not just the ones that the Nazis got for their prisoners they also had as prisoners the gypsies, homosexuals, Political opponents, and prisoners from Russia. Their another picture in here of a lot of things clothes and shoes that were found in the gas chambers. It says the a lot of things of people that did not survived are here for evidence of what the Nazis did to them, the Nazis were trying to destroy everything but some let theirs book with friends and the survivors talk about what happen. A lot of places that were used are still standing like that ghetto, the concentration and death camps.

Larry Rosenbach did not spend as much time in DP camps as others, and consequently they played a less important role in his postwar experiences. He reached a camp at Zeilsheim, in the American zone of Germany, several months after being liberated while on the death march to Dachau. He remained there for only six months. The freedom Larry was about to enjoy involved making decisions, after so many years of having been given no choices at all and having been told exactly what to do and when not to do it. For him, as for all the men and woman who had been enslaved for so long, liberation meant, at the beginning, a fundamental transformation: from prisoner to displaced person. It’s certainly unlikely that Larry and his friend gave voice to or even considered these larger problems immediately following their liberation. They were in shock and able to think only of the present.
Today I read Life and Death in the Camps. Today I was reading an article in Living Conditions. Living conditions varied from camp to camp. Some conditions were just monstrously. The conditions of the bigger camps were usually harder. There was usually less space, food was worse, and the discipline was more brutal. Conditions were never good anywhere. The conditions were bad, and never good anywhere, but they were still bearable. A women, Ana Novac was sent there, she had to share a bed with four other women, but when she got sent to the labor camp, “We are told we will wash daily, that there will be hot water to wash in. There were four or five rooms to each barracks, twenty bunks to a room and one person to a bunk. One! With a blanket! A pillow! A spoon and a real plate! The soup is real, proper soup, too, and the bread is fresh.” The conditions were unusually good.
I think that they had the thought that if you work you have the right to be a regular person, or not regular, but you get more privileges. They had very clear what their object was.
An added danger Jews who fought the Germans faced more brutal treatment than others. If they were caught. The treatment of prisoners of war soldiers captured in war was set. By rules drawn up in Switzerland in 1865. This set of rules was called the Geneva convention. The Nazis applied these rules to some prisoners and not to others. Prisoners from Britain the U.S were more likely to be treated properly. Nazi
this book talks about the women soul. how the way we could handle things but their talkin about it in different stories in the book and it helps to read this book because we may could relate to it and some people might not but it in this book you could have more confidents in yourself when some one puts you down or anything but its a good book also because you could read it to get your mind of things you dont want to be on their but from me reading this book it has calmed my nerves down and i dont stress as much because reading this book set an relief
The name of the book that I read talked about how Hitler's family raised him. When Hitler was a child his mom let him do everything he wanted to. Since Hitler had no father or anything he had not one person to tell him what to do. Hitler was not only a troublemaker as a child but also a mama’s boy. Hitler didn’t like it when they would tell him what to do. Hitler loved his mom so much that he believed that there was no other better women than his mother. Hitler did get something from his father his temper. Hitler got in lots of trouble in school he loved to argue. Hitler's father eventually retired and started to farm and owned several places. His father was at home most of the time for a while and Hitler finally got to know his father. His father was not a easy guy to get along with he hated the fact that Hitler and his older brother were doing bad in school so he moved them. After a while Hitler's father had to sale the new home that they bought because the farming wasn’t paying him well. I think that the parts that I read show that Hitler was a normal boy. I think that Hitler’s life must have changed after his father and mother died. The reason why I think that is because it sounds like he was very happy in his child hood.
