Adolf
Hitler, murderer of millions,
master of destruction and organized insanity, was seized by an
obsession with the Jews all his life. The Nazi Führer had always
been straightforward about his plans - his dream of a racially
"pure" empire would tolerate no Jews. He announced at
many occasions the "annihilation of the Jews" living in
the territory under his control.
In Hitler's mind, murdering millions of Jews could only be
accomplished under the confusion of war - from the beginning he
was planning a war that would engulf Europe ..
The Holocaust was the
systematic annihilation of six million Jews during World War 2. In
1933 approximately nine million Jews lived in the 21 countries of
Europe that would be military occupied by Germany during the war.
By 1945 two out of every three European Jews had been killed by
the Nazis.
1.5 million children were murdered during the Holocaust. This
figure includes more than 1.2 million Jewish children, tens of
thousands of Gypsy children and thousands of institutionalized
handicapped children. Nazi persecution, arrests, and deportations
were directed against all members of Jewish families without
concern for age. Plucked from their homes and stripped of their
childhoods, the children had witnessed the murder of parents,
siblings, and relatives. They faced starvation, illness and brutal
labor, until they were consigned to the gas chambers.
Here you find a few of the Jewish children of Auschwitz
- but there are no happy endings. The little children were all
murdered in Auschwitz during the Holocaust.
