this is horrible!!
this is so wrong what the Germans did to the Jews!! i am learning about this in school right now, and it is such an eye opener! i cant believe anyone would ever do this to another person like this! i know that there are still some things going on in the world that are similar to this, and i think that we all need to knock it off! we are people and our color or religion may not be the same, butt in the long end, we are all people! and we all are special to someone, and im sure that someone who cares about another person wouldnt want them to get hurt!!

wow!
i really thought the holocaust was just a man in power tiring to get lots of power,but what i have read so far i noticed it was a lot more than that!The Jewish families have gone through a lot! Right now i am reading the diary of Anne frank and looking at the holocaust in different perspectives. By that i mean looking at it the way she looked at it and how the people who did this article.
