From 1941 to 1945, Nazi Germany murdered 6 million Jews. They were treated and murdered as if they were pigs in a slaughterhouse. This dehumanization is credited as the Nazi party's justification for the horrors they committed. By viewing Jews as less than human, they rationalize treating them as less than human. Elie Wiesel's memoir Night recounts his experience as a Jew during the Holocaust of being treated as less than human.

The Germans see Jews as not important, not human, and without feelings. They treat Jews as hungry wild animals that would do anything for food. The author’s description of Jews killing each other for a piece of bread shows how acts of prejudice can escalate to murder.

Going along with Inhumanity, people were not treated as humans during WWII. The Nazis felt that the Jewish population was responsible for how bad their country was so they tried to eliminate all of them to make them pay for what they did. “They took off all our hair with clippers, and shaved all the hair off our bodies”(Wiesel 33). The Nazis took away the Jews humanity, and made them not even feel like they were humans beings. It was all the Nazis choice to kill or save a Jew. “eight simple short

“Why didn’t Jews leave Germany sooner?” “Why did they not resist their deportation to the death camps more forcefully?” – Questions of this nature have been asked continuously throughout the last five decades. Hindsight can give the impression that the encounter between Jews and the Third Reich during the Holocaust had to unfold as it eventually did, prompting the question of why Jews failed to see the proverbial writing on the wall. However, if historians have found it troubling to determine precisely how the Nazi Regime planned to deal with German Jews at any given moment between 1933 and 1941, how much more challenging must it have been for the Jewish men and women living within Nazi Germany to do so at the time.[1] Those who inquire as to how German Jews could have missed the writing on the wall make their first fatal mistake when they assume there was writing left to be read. The reality is that Nazi Germany was as perplexing to Jews at the time as it still is to us today.[2] A detailed answer to the subject in question is available in the history of Jewish life before 1938. The earlier years of Nazi Germany are crucial for understanding Jewish responses to Nazism because these years shed light on the incremental nature of Nazi persecution. However, the daily lives of Jews before the November Pogrom of 1938 are often eclipsed by the later, horrific years of genocide. The following pages will push past the focus on the history of the Holocaust and offer a close

“For evil to flourish, it only requires good men to do nothing” -Simon Wiesenthal (Simon Wiesenthal Quote). During the Holocaust, an estimated eleven million people died agonizing deaths from methods such as gas chambers, scientific experiments, beatings, and malnutrition (Concentration Camps 1933-1939). This staggering number is almost as much as the current population of the state of Ohio (United States). The big question is, why did the

The Nazis weren’t the only people who treated Jews like inferior beings; anybody who has the power can treat anything lower than themselves. “…a present whose abnormality suddenly becomes routine.”(Langer 6). The gypsy considered himself as the superior of the group so he could strike anybody he wants (Wiesel 39). When the gypsy’s life becomes too important for him, he has adopted to the way of the Nazis. As the Allied forces advanced, the Nazis led death marches as their last resort because they had concerns about their own lives. “...life becomes too much for man and death assuming the throne in the human imagination” (Langer 6). S.S made Jews run for hundreds of miles nonstop (Wiesel 85). They, the SS, were frightened that their cruel ways dug up, decided they had to bury the evidence which explained that they could not believe what the inhumane actions they engaged in with other people. People had the potential to manipulate other people in mass numbers but the second they think for themselves, they will find out what is right and what is not.

Many People have all experienced something very tragic, but have we ever felt the pain of a Jew after Hitler brought them down? Then, eight years later the Babi Yar Massacre happened which killed millions of people (mostly Jews). That is A lot of jews that lost their lives for just being jews.

One of the most sorrow thing that human would ever have been through is to be treated inhumanity and brutally abused. Like the quote clearly stated, “Band-Aids don’t fix bullet hole”, Holocaust had given the Jews a deep scar that would follow them until they buried down under the ground. The nightmare began when Hitler took over the control and targeted to assassinate 6 millions of alive Jews who were living in Germany. They were all murdered in different ways, it could be starving till death, forced to do overwork or got whipped as a punishment for not working hard. Overall life was tough for them, they were forced to work long hours and lived in a poor conditions. Jews were born to be the target for Hitler and the Nazis to discriminate

Violence brings out the worst in people. It reveals their true nature and who they really are in the inside. What the Nazi’s did to the Jews was not right at all. The Jews had to have a good heart and strong will to make it through it; all the memories they experienced will never go away.

During the Holocaust the Nazi German, Adolf Hitler, murdered five to six million Jews becoming the most well-known genocide to ever take place. The Holocaust was also known as the war against the Jews. The German’s were targeting the Jews because they believed that they were “Christ-killers” and it was against the German’s beliefs. Therefore, the only solution to this problem was make the Jew’s go extinct. Adolf Hitler and the German’s were sure that the Jewish community deserved disaster because they did not view their beliefs as correct, so the Jews were put into concentration camps and death camps throughout Germany. In reality the Jews did nothing to deserve this type of cruelty from the Nazi’s except simply just being a Jew. Adolf Hitler, and the rest of the Nazi Germans, blamed their cruelty and unjustness towards the Jews by “accusing the Jews of demonic powers”. In the concentration and death camps the Jews were not treated like human beings because the Nazis did not view them as human beings, but as a waste, literally. It is believed that one of the main goals of the camps were to turn the Jews into feces. Even far away from the concentration camps, throughout the entirety of Germany the Jews were viewed as inhumane. The use of propaganda in the streets and in newspapers had painted a picture of how barbaric and devilish the Jewish community was. Throughout the twelve devastating and catastrophic years there were millions of reasons for the Jews to abandon their morals and find a new community that would accept them for who they truly are. Rather than just surrendering their beliefs they believe that the Holocaust was an opportunity to learn and

Although I already knew of man’s inhumanity to man, the tour of the Museum of Tolerance opened my eyes in a new sense. All the questions I had come up with were answered, and I learned of many other incidents were the human race made mistakes. I learned that the Jews were the only group singled out for total organized annihilation by the Nazis. Every single Jew was to be killed according to the Nazis' plan. Nazi soldiers raided the Jews homes and and took them to camps where they were forced to work or be gassed. The whole family was taken, but only those capable of working long and hard were spared. The explanation of the Nazis' hatred of the Jew rests on their distorted world view that all of history was a racial struggle. They considered the Jews a race whose goal was world domination and who were a threat to Aryan dominance. They believed that all of history was a fight between races which should end in the triumph of the superior Aryan race. In their eyes, the Jews' racial origin made them criminals

Seems like you don’t know where you are.” He just stood there, trying to think how to respond. Is he from here? Just some farm boy lost, or some kid exploring the woods who took a wrong turn. He then responded, “ No, I am traveling from a farm. I ran away from my family.” The boy stared for a second in silence. The boy then said, “Well, do you have anywhere to go? I mean if you're running away you might want a warm meal and goodnights rest?” He stood there, surprised the boy even thought of offering a stranger food and a place to sleep. He responded, “Would you do that for me? You don't even know me?” The boy smiled, “ Brother, everyone sometimes needs a little help once in a while” The boy then insisted that he followed him. As they started walking, he just thought to himself, “Is dad still alive? Who fired those shots? Did they hit anyone?” While walking, he started to get teary eyed. Wondering what happened to his family. So many grey areas that have no

This is one story I've never told before. Not to anyone. . .To go into it, I've always thought, would only cause embarrassment for all of us, a sudden need to be elsewhere, which is the natural response to a confession. Even now I'll admit, the story makes me squirm. (O’Brien)

“We need to go now!” said my mother, I knew we had to go but it was way sooner than expected. “We will be there for a short while” my father said but we knew that, that wasn’t the case. It had been my biggest fear come to life. Everyone seemed to be frozen in fear. “They’re coming!” said a women in the distance. It had been the start of the Nazi party.
