Deadly diseases, executions, and kids with no parents or home made up the ghettos. Ghettos were horrible places where the Jews were forced to
Sartre wrote "Anti-Semite and Jew" in France in 1948, before the establishment of Israel.

from his fellow Jews and from the SS officers who watched over the Jews. The violence took many forms, such as assaulting people who were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Some might say that there was no difference between the barbarities of the two opposing sides, as people got hurt either way.
