When the Nazi party first came to power in 1933 they began building on the anti-Semitist feelings in Germany; introducing new legislations that gradually removed the Jews from society such as the Nuremberg Laws which prohibited marriage or extramarital sexual intercourse between Jews and

    Austin Barnard November 18‚ 2010 Is the Great Dictator a holocaust film? The Great Dictator‚ by Charlie Chaplin‚ can be argued both ways as to weather or not it is a film relevant to the holocaust. I personally enjoyed the movie as a comedy‚ but not as a story about the holocaust. Yes‚ the plot does take place during World War I and then later World War II‚ but Chaplin makes the film a parody of the wars. Chaplin has the characters‚ including Hitler‚ called Hynkel‚ in the movie‚ doing

Some historical records in our time are only causing controversy because many professional historians that disagree with the premise of the Holocaust are presenting their point of view in public. They are more dangerous than the Holocaust deniers; this is

    scarcely any event can compare in atrocity to that of the Holocaust.

Memories of the Holocaust are littered with acts of such inhumane cruelty and barbarity that they are almost unbelievable‚ Hermann Patschmann’s memories are no different. “One time the German authorities were short of SS matrons‚ so they recruited them by force from the factories without even giving them enough time to inform their families.

    The role of ordinary Germans in the Holocaust is that of bystanders. The people of Germany watched on‚ without protest‚ as the Jewish people were murdered. Small and large jobs such as engineering and railway work contributed to the operation of the Holocaust and the murdering of Jews. The manipulation of the German people‚ through racist and anti-Semitic propaganda‚ speeches and polices from Hitler‚ meant that millions of Germans backed the plans to rid the nation of Jews. The idea that the Jews
