The Holocaust- an historical overview
             The Jews have had a very bad life, as a religion goes any way. Even in roman times thay have been persecuted for the religious beliefs. Thay had no rights what so ever, and thay were often used a religious sacrifices for the Romans.
             Hitler was brought to power my a man named hindingberg, and by rich German people who believed in his ways. Shortly after Hitler was brought to power the Jews in Germany were being terrorized by fellow Germanys. He took all the rights away from any one who where Jewish, and it became legal to kill, hurt people if thay were Jews or communists.
             From the beginning of ww2 to 1942 Germany declared war on France, Britain, Russia and a lot of other countries. On Dec 7 1941 Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, which was located in Hawaii of the west coast of USA. After this attack USA joined the war against Hitler, keeping out of it before simple because thay believed it was euros problem, so thay could fix it.
             The ghettoes where nebhourhoods Germany enclosed and used to starve and force labor Jews, and Germany thought to be Jews. Thay were said to be used to "HELP" the Jews but were used for killing ,tarter and slaved labor. The first ghetto made was called ghetto which was in piotrkow Poland in 0ct of 1939 2nd lodz in Feb. 1940, last made in 1943. in the ghetto if u some how survived the Germans than typhus would problem kill u, it killed 10% of the people in it.
             The ghettoe was not considered the most cost efficient way of killing the Jewish people. So Hitler demanded a more efficient way of killing the Jewish people. Hitler wanted ALL Jews killed, he made gas chambers to kill them, he killed 4.2 million Jews. He also allowed a man called Einsatz Groppen to do horrorific experiments on them, such as cutting out there stomach while thay were alive to see how long thay would live.
             So you must be thinking if this was being done who did thay not fight back? Well...
