"Bite your lips, little brother…Don 't cry. Keep your anger, your hate, for another day, for later. The day will come but not now…Wait. Clench your teeth and w a i t … " page:53 Night. The holocaust has been debated for a long time and both sides bring up good evidence but here 's evidence on why it did happen. The first piece of evidence is that people still remember the event and speak about it publicly. The second piece of evidence is that there written evidence.The third is that these places are still standing and are able to be looked at. The counter claim is that not one of these body has had an autopsy and found dying of gas posin. There is tons of evidence that supports the holocaust happening.
First is that there are people who publicly speak about these events and how they happened. From many people like Elie Wiesel and many other different people who spoke about the holocaust “ there may be times when we are powerless to prevent injustice,but there must never a time when we fail to protest” Elie Wiesel. This is a powerful quote from one of his speeches that he did meaning that even though we are powerless we can still say no to something that is not right.

Second is that there is a lot of written documents about the holocaust and all the killings and camps. Ones like Hitler 's Address,Hitler’s propaganda. Hitler’s propaganda talks about all the foreign enemies to the Germans like the jews and why they need to be defeated making people believe that the jews deserve this punishment that they are receiving. “If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.” Hitler. Saying that if you lie unuf it will be believed and people believed that to be the
During the Holocaust, six million Jews were sent to their deaths. Nevertheless, in the Holocaust literature, one can find the glimpse of joy. In 1933, in Germany, Adolf Hitler and his Nazi party created a German Empire & Jews were no place in Hitler’s vision. Love & Laughter were two of the main things that made Jews and other people forget the time happening in the Holocaust, including nature. Almost 2,700,000 Jews were sent to extermination camps such as, Treblinka and Chelmno, where they were lately killed.
The holocaust was not just about the slaughtering of jews is about riding the world of its imperfections. According to Hitler these “imperfections” included being jewish, having anything but blonde hair and blue eyes, being handicapped mentally or physically, or being homosexual. During the holocaust jews human natural rights were violated in several different ways. There is a document that states all of the human rights. You would think that people are able to use their common sense to be able to determine that
Holocaust denial is a ridiculous claim for any person well informed about World War 2 and the Holocaust but for a denial, there must be someone who is wrong which would be the survivors but also the bystanders and the perpetrators they had excuses but they never denied the holocaust from ever happening. In the 20th century, the perpetrators plan genocide and disguise as ongoing armed into “civil war” such as in Bosnia 1995. If this is not stop this would move into persecution, then Extermination or the killing of millions of lives recognized as genocide. Years later, the perpetrators would deny the existence of those crimes and try to destroy evidence even witnesses for later generations deny its existence from ever happening.
Faith influences everyone; whether it be faith in a god, a person, or one's own self, faith is ever present. It is one of the most powerful things in all of history; it migrated thousands of people, killed millions, and influences laws in every society. During World War II, the Nazi party of Germany killed up to 6 million people of the Jewish religion. Some of these Jews maintained their faith while they were being killed, some started to break from it, and many lost it completely. If their god was the reason they were being persecuted, how could they have faith in him?
In the book ‘Night’ by Elie Wiesel, the reader reads about his journey in a concentration camp. Also, how being in the camp changed who he was as a person, and changed how he thought about lots of things. Not eating well enough and having to fight for survival can change any person drastically. This is witnessed through the duration of the book. He learns a lot about the world, and has to grow up way too fast, only being 15 years old.
In conclusion the holocaust was a tragedy for everyone involved. Families were torn apart, jewish had their rights stripped away, and they lost everything they cared about. Despite all the terrible things that jews faced I believe their is still humanity in this world. Humanity is described as being selfless and helping others and I truly believe we still have people that are like this.
Living with the memories of such a horrific event like the Holocaust is challenging enough, but having to write and relive this tragedy once more is almost too much to ask. But we must, as staying silent is even worse. The horrific event that included the mass murder of 6 million Jews and other "undesirables," such as Gypsies and homosexuals, known as the Holocaust, left few survivors, but many of those that made it out were silent for a long time. Why relive the past if it is so horrible that one does not even want to think about it? Once some survivors decided to talk about the Holocaust and their experiences, another problem arose.
Everyone who has learned about World War II should know about the Holocaust. The Holocaust was during the same period of World War II. “What is it called the Holocaust?” you may ask. The Holocaust originates from the Greek language and means “completely burnt offering to God.”
I wanted to return to Sighet to describe to you my death so that you might ready yourselves while there is still time... I wanted to come back to warn you. Only no one is listening to me... This was towards the end of 1942”(7). The pattern of faith and belief in Elie Wiesel’s Night is intertwined with the pattern of denial the Jews have throughout the book.
The Holocaust is ultimately the result of the Nazis’ racist ideology. The holocaust should be taught in schools because, it teaches students about the thin line between good and evil, it was a major event of history in the 20th century, they should know the past early so they can prepare for the future, and it helps them deal with the world they live in today. There is a very thin line between good and evil. The Nazis crossed over the line to the evil side when they started the holocaust, along with all of the other wicked things they did to
The Holocaust was very wrong. The Nazis killed tons of innocent people. They came up with a horrible solution to their economic problems. They killed over six million people for no real reason.
Memory and history have always shared a part in creating an individuals perception of themselves, their lives, and of their importance. The Holocaust was a mass murder of millions that took place in the mid 1940’s, that changed the lives of so many. ("The Holocaust") Night, is a memoir by Elie Wiesel that describes his experience as a teenager struggling to survive in concentration camps during the Holocaust. (Wiesel, 2006)
Gage Amid the midst of the Holocaust, millions of Jews, Gypsies, Handicapped, and Homosexuals went through extermination and among all the victims Elie Wiesel lived to tell his story. Elie Wiesel wrote this story so something like this would never occurred again. In “Night” Elie Wiesel and his family witnessed and experienced the horrific treatment and genocide of Jews which led to them becoming practically emotionless and abnormal.
"Do you know why most survivors of the Holocaust are vegan? It's because they know what it's like to be treated like an animal,” as said by Chuck Palahniuk, the man himself. The term Holocaust has been studied by many different sceintists for over 30 years and The holocaust was a very murderous event killing over 11 million people. The man who lead the very murderous event was Adolf Hitler. In some schools, the teachers try not to even bring up the holocaust because they try to forget about it.
The Holocaust was an execution of 8 million Europeans, and “ 6 million of the Europeans killed were Jewish women, children, and men that were brutally murdered” (Strahinich 7). It “was a catastrophe in our modern history” (Strahinich 7) now staining our history pages with hundreds of innocent people’s blood, forever lost in the grounds of the Holocaust. It took “place in Poland, Lithuania, Belarus, Latvia, and Czechoslovakia” (Altman 9) is some of the places where hundreds died. Thanks to “Adolf Hitler” (Strahinich 8) and “the Nazis government” (Strahinich 10), they “plunged most of Europe” (Allen 7) into turmoil, taking lives that did not need to go.
