Their hands arose as the Führer passed by. Chants grew louder and louder; “Heil Hitler! Heil Hitler.” This was their leader, a man who the children looked up to, and the reason why Germans were able to return to work. Hitler, a leader who was praised in his time era, however, today is seen as the reason behind the holocaust, a unique event in history. Adolf Hitler who served as a dictator from 1934 to 1945 said: “If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.” (GoodReads) Hitler told lies, yet his biggest one was saying the Jews were an inferior race. Hitler withheld the ability to brainwash millions of Germans and he did so with words. Hitler knew that words possessed the capacity to immensely impact how an individual feels. In knowing that, the Führer executed Jews and created a unique but drastic event in world history, the holocaust. Francis of Assisi an Italian Catholic friar and preacher once said: “If you have men who will exclude any of God 's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men.” (LongShaw). Jews, homosexuals, criminals and cripples all excluded by Hitler. The Führer wanted to create a community where these sets of people were close to extinct. However, the uniqueness of the holocaust allows it to differ from any other genocide. The holocaust was an instituted murder, Hitler did not go out and cause a mass murder. Hitler and his group would plan their attacks, to ensure they killed as many people as possible. Even though Hitler had his Nazis, he would train young children from ages 6-10 and eventually hope they became Nazis. Hitler demonstrated he had a plan in mind, and it is through his words and actions that...

...onship with others like the Hitler youth offered him comfort. He sought out to believe that if he was unable to finish off his plan, a member of the Hitler youth would be able to for him. Over the course of a person’s lifetime they will inevitable meet people that inspire and challenge them. In the end, it the choice falls to the individual, whether they look at their relationships and choose to inspire or challenge the other individuals. It is up to the person, to choose if they will live a fulfilling life, or choose a life filled of hatred. Adolf Hitler chose a life where he was seen as a Führer. However, he lived his life in the perspective of fulfilling his best interest. Hitler gave into greed, and hate, to create a unique but drastic event in the holocaust. His main goal was to exclude all those not in his vision, which is too common in today’s world.
After Germany lost World War I, it was in a national state of humiliation. Their economy was in the drain, and they had their hands full paying for the reparations from the war. Then a man named Adolf Hitler rose to the position of Chancellor and realized his potential to inspire people to follow. Hitler promised the people of Germany a new age; an age of prosperity with the country back as a superpower in Europe. Hitler had a vision, and this vision was that not only the country be dominant in a political sense, but that his ‘perfect race’, the ‘Aryans,’ would be dominant in a cultural sense. His steps to achieving his goal came in the form of the Holocaust. The most well known victims of the Holocaust were of course, the Jews. However, approximately 11 million people were killed in the holocaust, and of those, there were only 6 million Jews killed. The other 5 million people were the Gypsies, Pols, Political Dissidents, Handicapped, Jehovah’s witnesses, Homosexuals and even those of African-German descent. Those who were believed to be enemies of the state were sent to camps where they were worked or starved to death.
The Holocaust occurred over an extended period of time, causing irreversible physical and mental abuse. It happened over many years as part of a deliberate step by step process masterminded by Hitler. One of the first things that people began to see and eventually believe was propaganda. The idea of propaganda was to get people to believe something by showing illustrations that share ideas. Generally those ideas were negative or misleading, and if someone is exposed to propaganda enough, then they are more likely to begin to believe it. Hitler knew that using propaganda would be a way to influence the people of Germany into believing that Jews were horrible and needed to die. Hitler’s mean tactics not only diminished the Jews, but also kept people in fear of their life and lives of their loved ones and therefore ready to obey his rules. When people are scared for their lives… they will do crazy things. According to A Teacher’s Guide to the Holocaust “Propaganda relies on emotion rather than on logic, concentrates on a few points which are presented in simple terms, and then hammers those points ...
There is no one reason that Adolf Hitler started the Holocaust. What we do know is that all the reasons and theories came together to create one of the worst atrocities in history, the genocide of six million Jewish people. There are many theories but none any greater than anti-Semitism which has plagued the Jews since the crucifixion of Jesus. Another theory is that Hitler blamed Jews for the economic state of Germany after World War I. There
Adolf Hitler is from Austria. He was in the German war and got injured for a period of time. He wanted to become an artist but when he got rejected to go to art school twice.

He gave strong powerful speeches and led people to believe what he was doing was the right thing to do.
Edwin Black informed the world that the IBM computer company helped out Hitler during the Holocaust. Their role in the Holocaust was to track the people down, take the numbers down of people they killed, and they would help identify what race, religion, or gender the people were in certain regions. When IBM got caught they apologize for the mistake they made (IBM’s Role in the Holocaust). The leader of the Holocaust was Adolf Hitler. Hitler said that, “ Jews are like an alien threat to the world and us so we need to get rid of them before they get rid of us”(Introducing the Holocaust) .That is why the Holocaust. The Holocaust was so bad and tragdic for the world. First, the destruction caused by Nazis, also the number of babies, people, and
...one significant address open to question. Why would Hitler do such ghastly things, and how could his psyche uncovered doing these. Well Hitler as a young person had an exceptionally rough life. He was beaten as a youngster by his father. A great deal of his kin kicked the bucket. He was dropped out of school on the grounds that he missed so much school and got behind. To top everything of he battled his heart out in war, soon after he couldn't battle any longer, he heard that Germany surrendered. He was a very discouraged man. So one ought to acknowledge what happen in his life before they attempt and make sense of anything that happen. It is not a reason for his repulsive movements, yet may clarify why he did what he did. This horrible disaster has numerous things numerous individuals don't comprehend, for them to comprehend they have to research the Holocaust.
The Holocaust was a terrible time. This terrible time was all a plan, led by Adolf Hitler. Adolf Hitler was sent to prison for treason. Even after he got out, he worked with the government of Germany. He even rose to be the Dictator of Germany, with the luck of the last leader's passing. He blamed others for his "struggle." He passed laws, to make it legal to descriminate and to single out groups of people, races, and religions.
In 1933, Adolf Hitler, a leader of the Nazi Party, rose to power in Germany. The Nazi Party abused their power in many different aspects, which creating issues beyond Germany’s borders. This abuse of power lead to the horrific event we know today as the Holocaust. The Holocaust caused over eleven million deaths, with approximately one million of them being children. The Nazis targeted certain groups of individuals including Jews, Gypsies, homosexuals, Jehovah’s Witnesses, mentally or physically disabled, and anyone who did not agree with Nazi Party. The Nazi Party had excessive power, which was used to undermine the others below them. Out of all of the individuals who were targeted by the Nazis; the Jewish were the most discriminated against. Six million out of the eleven million executed were Jews. The journey of the Jews through a span of only fifteen years showed how one event in history could be so crucial. Jewish individuals’ lives took a toll for the worse as the Nazis rose to power.
We all have gone through troubling times in our life. We have all experienced pain and loss one way or another. The Holocaust was a completely different kind of horror, and Adolf Hitler was the sole cause of World War II and the Holocaust. The Holocaust was a terrible time for the Jewish people of Germany. Hitler had two plans for Germany, the camp life was traumatizing and the aftermath of the Holocaust left Germany both physically and mentally broken.
In the late thirties and fourties, the Holocaust occured. The Holocaust was the mass genocide of eleven million Jews and other undesireables. We learn about this event to remember all who lost their lives, and make sure something this awful never happens again.
Eleven million dead. Fifty-five percent were Jews. The Holocaust was responsible for the death of 6.1 million Jewish people. It is one of the most important events in human history, but it is starting to be forgotten. Without the identification of those at fault and the remembrance of the Holocaust, history is more likely to repeat itself. Although blaming any one person for the Holocaust may seem like an impossible task, the top three most responsible parties are Hitler, Minor Nazis, and the SS.
Holocaust I've thought, and thought about resistance in the Holocaust and I've come to this comprehension: No phrase or verse or detailed explanation can illustrate the level of terror and oppression that took place. The Holocaust was probably the most arguably infamous series of despiteful human rights and cold blooded murder in modern history. The rise of the powerful Adolf Hitler has set his war against Jewish people, Jewish culture and Jewish memory. If the twisted philosophy of the Nazi regime was to eradicate Jewish memory, then it is our duty to remember the Jewish lives that perished and to keep Jewish memory alive. There was approximately six million Jews were sent to death camps and killed during World War II (1939-1945). So what do you think that led up to this? Why Adolf Hitler hatred towards Jews is so strong that made him did the inhuman cruel murder? Well the resolution lies in the ethnic undercurrents that ran beneath the peripheral of Germany and the world.
The Holocaust is the history of continuing mourning and dismay. It seemed to be no ignition of concern or sympathy to lighten up this dreadful history. The Holocaust was the extermination of six million Jews and millions of other people that fell into the “undesirable” category, including blacks, gypsies, and homosexuals, by the Nazi Party during World War II. By 1945, two out of every three Jews were killed: 1.5 million children were murdered. Holocaust survivor, Abel Herzberg said,” There were not six million Jews murdered; there was one murder, six million times.”
During 1933-1945, Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party ruled most of continental Europe. Hitler was commander in war efforts and had interesting goals he wanted to accomplish as ruler. Hitler believed that Jews were to be destroyed, he wanted to get rid of the entire race because according to him, they had no purpose of living. The Holocaust is now famously known for the mass murders of the Jews. About six millions Jews were murder in Europe under Hitler’s orders. The Jews were put into concentration camps better described as “death camps” and this was done to separate this race from everyone else. Under the Nazi Party, Jewish people before being murdered suffered from isolation, starvation and mistreatment.
