Review and
reflect The Holocaust
The Holocaust is a phrase that has been used to describe the mass murder of MILLIONS of Jewish people in Nazi occupied Europe during WWII.
However, some people do not like to use this phrase as in history it has meant a sacrificial offering to God.
The phrase GENOCIDE is more commonly used to describe mass murder, the want to irradiate a group of people … and it still takes place regularly today

The Nazi Party ruled Germany in the 1930’s and 1940’s. They blamed the Jewish people for many problems in their country.
The Jewish people and many other groups of people in society were seen as UNDESIRABLE.
They believed any NON ARYAN people was harmful to the master race.

Some groups of people were experimented on inside these camps by people like Dr Mengele. He never used pain killers and more often than not people died because of these experiments. Homosexuals, disabled and twins were some of these groups.
