The Holocaust

The Holocaust was a horrific event that killed approximately 6 million Jewish people. It began in January of 1933 by a man named Adolf Hitler and a group of German soldiers called Nazi's. During the Holocaust Jewish men, women, and children were tortured and killed simply because Hitler believed that they were corrupting the pure German race. It started out with racism and discrimination... Jew's were not allowed in certain places, etc. Next they were taken from their homes and sent to concentration camps where they were used as slaves until they died of either exhaustion or disease. They were sent to live in overcrowded ghettos where the old and the weak were killed and the physically able were lucky to survive. Eventually they were transported to extermination camps where they were all killed in gas chambers. The things done to Jewish people during the Holocaust were sickening and if I could go back I would recruit a group of soldiers to go undercover and take down the leaders of the Third Reich to bring fear to the Nazi's and hopefully end the war. Just like the guys in Inglourious Basterds.
