This book was interesting. There was not enough food and people starved and there was no work. Germany’s first democratic government was formed after the war. People who are defeated, hungry and jobless become bitter and frustrated. Jewish shops were vandalized by Nazi storm troopers. Lots of Synagogues were destroyed. Hitler and the Nazis took over the German government in 1933. Hitler had received 30.1 percent of the votes in an election for president of Germany. The Holocaust happened before and during World War 2. Jewish people were persecuted and killed from the moment the Nazis came to power in 1933. The word Holocaust meant “ an offering to the gods that was completely burned away. The religion of the Jewish people is Judaism. It teaches that there is one God, who has chosen the Jewish people to be special. Jews are expected to pray at home or in synagogues. The Torah is written in Hebrew, the language that unites all Jewish people, no matter where they live. Family worship is as important as worship in synagogues for Jewish people. The Torah tells Jewish people to take care of others, especially the poor and the sick.
+Deniers of the Holocaust
+Written By Ted Gottfried
+The Holocaust deniers often call themselves “revisionists.” They do this because they make it seem as if they are reinterpreting history not going off the factual information. British journalist and historian David Irving is the best-known revisionist. Irving has been writing books and articles dealing with the Nazi and World War II since the late 1960’s. Every single word printed from David Irving is in the German point of view. David Irving defines himself as a “moderate fascist.” David Irving keeps a picture of Adolf Hitler over his desk and has claimed in a couple books that Hitler had no knowledge of the Final Solution or the Holocaust.
+The thing that scares me the most is that he has held a political party with the aim of assuming leadership in Great Britain.
Reflection-4/4/07
“The man who is born to be a dictator” was how Hitler described himself during the trial following the failed 1923 rebellion they called the Beer Hall Putsch. His birth took place on April 20, 1889. The future German dictator was not born in germany, but in Branau, Austria. He was the third child of his father’s third marriage. Adolf’s mother, Klara Poelzl, was twenty-two years younger than his father when they married. His parents first two children-a boy and a girl-died before Adolf was born. Adolf’s younger brother, Edmound, died at the age of six. Only Adolf and a younger sister, Clara, Survived to adulthood. Adolf also had an older half brother and half sister from his father’s previous marriages. Because of his father’s job as a cutoms officer for the austro-Hungarian Empire, Adolf’s family often moved from place to place. During the years he was growing up, there were seven such moves. The boy was sent to five different schools. His father was very strict with Adolf. He bullied the boy. But Adolf’s mother doted on him and spoiled him. She also sang to him and encouraged him to sing along with her. Adolf had a good voice. He took singing lessons. He sang in the choir of a Benedictine monastery where ha also attended classes for two years. Describing this period of his life, Hitler told how he “dreamed of one day taking holy orders.”
Section title: life and death in the camps
Picture description: there people in the camps that are being beat up.
Summary: This section was about how people suffer in the camps. where most of the time they struggle to survive. The Nazis began by arresting anyone they saw as a political opponent. They did not put people in prison instead they would put them in special prison camps. These camps were different from ordinary prisons because all of the prisoners in the camps were imprisoned without trial and had and had no date for their released. These people either died of illness or were killed by others. There were 3 kinds of camps that were called concentration camp, labor camp, death camp. The camps were run by the SS.Millions of people died in the camps, but some survived. the women and children were liberated from the Auschwitz camp after the war.
Viewing the Holocaust Today.
This book describes how the word Holocaust is no longer being used its proper way. People are using the word as if it has no meaning to it. Survivors argue about writers using the word for their own entertainment. They try to argue and tell them that the word Holocaust was used for the murder of Jews. The book explains how there is a Rap group called Concentration Camp and that they made an album called Da Holocaust. It angers survivors because people who are not aware of the Holocaust will run around thinking the word Holocaust is meaningless.
this book is interesting because it talks about the deaths and the life of hitler's european.the nazi had wanted to create a new huge german empire called thrid reich.in 1938 they had marched into and occupied much of the europe.british empire,france, and the u.s.s.r during this period had killed many people who they had thought was undesirable.the nazi had killed between the numbers of five and six million jews in what the was known has the holocost.they had was trying to destroy the jewish people in all the areas that they had controlled.
This radio report from 1933 announced the election victory of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party in Germany. Although many people celebrated, they did not know the ultimate consequences of Hitler's rise to power. His rise to power led to World War 2, and the extermination of millions of Jews. This book explains the horrible things that Hitler did and he was planning to do. Like his final solution. It was to exterminate the Jews and other inferior races.
THIS MORNING I READ THE SAME BOOK IVE BEEN READING ALL WEEK, LIFE AND DEATH IN THE CAMPS. TODAY I WAS READING ABOUT “PROCESSING ARRIVALS.” AS SOON AS THE PRISONERS GOT TO THE CAMPS, THEY WERE NO LONGER SEEN AS PEOPLE, THEY WERE NOW SOME KIND OF GINEA PIG, OR SOME KIND OF JUST BODY WITHOUT ANY RIGHTS. THEY WENT THROUGH A STEP BY STEP PROCESS. ALL THE STEPS THEY WENT THROUGH WERE INTENDED TO STIP THEM AWAY FORM EVERYTHING THAT MADE THEM A CITIZEN, A PERSON WITH RIGHTS, EVEN A HUMAN BEING. EVEN THOUGH MANY OF THEM HAD ALREADY BEEN TO JAIL, THEY HAD BEEN TREATED BRUTALY BY THE GESTAPO. MOST OF THE PEOPLE WHO HAD NEVER BEEN IMPRISONED WERE NOT READY FOR ALL THE BRUTALITY AND ALL THE BAD THINGS THAT HAPPENED.
I THINK IT WAS A TERRIBLE THING THAT THEY DID ALL THEY DID, MEANING THAT THEY STRIPPED A PERSON, OR THE PEOPLE, ALL THE THINGS THEY TOOK FROM THEM MAKING THEM FEEL LESS PERSON.
The book that I’m reading this morning is called “prelude to the holocaust” which the section that I’m reading is leaving German. For a lot of Jews was a hard decision for them to live in German. But even in what they saw a lot of Jews stay in German. They here a lot of thins like songs that the people did like a song that say “when the Jewish blood splatters off the knife” they thought of living but they thought why they were going to live all their things in their if in their they already had a life. They were able to live because in 1933 Otto set a business in Amsterdam, in the Netherlands. Around 78,000 of Jews during that time had left German. A lot of them had the opportunity to have a better life some went to Europe, France, and Netherlands. Theirs a picture of a girl in class with all the rest of the students her name was Anne Frank. Her family thought that they were safe I going to another town but what they did not know was that the Nazis were going to get them even if they were out of German because they went to get the Jews in all those countries they went. A lot of the Jews didn’t went to countries were they had families they went along to make new friends and a new life. A lot of people went to the United Sates because they had Visa.
Racial inferiors the Nazis had complicated, entirely invented ideas about race. The Nazis wanted to fill the third Reich with pure Germans who they saw as belonging to an invented race called Aryan. The other western Europe groups were eastern and southern European peoples, Asian and African peoples, then slaves and gypsies, and, worst of all to the Nazis, Jews
The name of the book that I read is the children we remember. The book that I read starts out by talking about everything that the Jews went trough. The children went to regular schools prayed at Synagogues, and played with their friends like regular ordinary people one day, Nazi's came and tried to take over. They made the Jew children sew the Star of David on their clothes so they could be identified as a Jew. The Nazi’s closed Jewish stores and burned down synagogues, they also took away the homes of the Jews. Families were forced to live on the streets. The children would keep themselves warm by wrapping themselves in rags. They would let the children's go trough hunger. The Germans only hated the Children because they were warm. Some of the children's survived but most of them died. I think that it is harsh what the Germans did. I think that they had no right to do all that they did.
