Apparently they don't teach it in American schools anymore either. Maybe there wouldn't be so many pro Hamas demonstrations. God bless you all .

I do not fault anyone for the lack of knowledge taught to them. The world is rewritten history. No mentions of the Inquestions that occurred, I am Christian. But people need to know how barbaric people could be and still are. Africa has been ravaged and little is taught. I am an American so my knowledge of how history is taught in other countries. Sadly genocide still occurs today.

And I guess you also never heard of American movies like Schindler's list or other movies which won oscars and were stories related to the holocaust. You also never heard it mentioned on international news or anything like that and then never bothered to mosey over to wikipedia and read up on what this apparently famous event was folks were referring to? Sure

Don't feel guilty about not knowing things from history, how could you know about something that you were never taught. That was then and this is now, and now you're learning about it and there's nothing wrong with that. Being curious and learning things is always a good thing at any age. Remember knowledge is power.

@@wolfman22 well in Portugal I also learned about the world war two but not the horrible details. When I had phylosophy at 15 years old, the school took all the stufents from 10th year to watch the movie “The Shindler’s List” at the cinema. I got curiouse to learn more about it but there was no internet, at least not were I lived. But has an adult I have watched a lot of documentaries about the subject. And many horríble thing happened. The Naz… were a horrible beast but there were other like Rússia and even USA.

I was born in the late 1940s and I can remember being shown films of the Holocaust when I was in 6th grade. The television stations ran films periodically on the horrors of the Holocaust. My history teacher in college made "The Rise and Fall of The Third Riech" mandatory reading and then we discussed it for weeks. Yes, history can and sometimes is messy, ugly, painful and can scare us, embarrass us but it is necessary to know it, to learn from it or we repeat it, especially the ugly, hurtful parts. Knowledge of our history is an armor for our future.

@@gatroy13 Idk, as a french, we had history during every year of primary and secondary school. (so basically from age 7 to 17-18). We also had to learn 2 language in addition to french classes during that time. During the 4 years of history in primary school, we visited all the European history, from prehistory to modern times. Then we did it again in the first 4 years of secondary school. In the last 3 years of primary school, we did it again, with a greater focus on modern history. And I was in a science major program for those last 3 years. So... I think there is plenty of time to learn history in school, it's just that a lot of countries don't put an emphasis on it or discard it as a less useful subject, so less important. Of course we mainly learned history centred around France and french culture, but we still learned about American history for example, with the American Revolution etc.

All our tiny villages rolled up against him, most of them workers at the factory who organized the general strikes and stood up for their neighbour's. There were so many arrests following, but at least they tried to do something. I don't doubt a second that there were bad eggs in those villages as well. There always are. But I am still glad that where I come from, the morals of the ordinary people were strong enough to stand up against something that was so fundamentally wrong despite the danger.

​@@andonsea2803Yes, of course!

This is not my story, it is my father's, recounted to me a few times over the course of his life. My father was a teenager during world war two, living in occupied Holland. His last name was Cohen. Fortunately he and his immediate family were able to procure forged papers to change their name. The forged papers were not enough to save my grandfather who died in front of my father when the gestapo came for him, but somehow they ignored the boy. I suspect there was some humanity left in those Germans. The contact that allowed him those papers allowed him to join the resistance, or perhaps it was the inverse. My father wanted to fight, but he was still too young and too small to be given a fighting role. His youth however allowed him to not be seen as a threat by the enemy, to pass much more easily. He was given the job of runner, he kept communication between several cells of the resistance. He was however still affiliated with a particular cell, with whom he spent much time. One day he was going to join his cell at their 'headquarters', and saw that there was an unusual level of activity by the Germans in the immediate area. They were clearly getting ready to assault my father's cell. Rather than running, which might well have been the smart thing to do from a civilian perspective, he snuck through the Germans to get inside to his friends, to warn them. Warn them he did and they set to arming themselves, getting ready to sell themselves dearly. My father wanted to fight, but his compatriots were steadfast in their refusal. He had a job to do they told him, he had to report the destruction of the cell. It was too late for him or anyone to escape, so they had him crawl up the chimney to hide. Shortly thereafter, the gunfire started. He stayed there for hours after the gunfire ended, waiting for silence, and when he finally came out, there were no Germans present. The bodies of all his friends though still were. The whole of his life afterwards, virtually every waking moment from that point forth was spent atoning for the guilt of surviving. It had profound, devastating effects on the quality of his life after that, and domino effects on the people around him. His personal life was a perpetual shambles and his dreams haunted. However he became a doctor, one of the first emergency medical specialists and spent his life crusading to improve emergency medicine. He was personally responsible for saving thousands of lives and indirectly countless more.

@@LilFireFox a righteous man, also I don't know why I'm surprised but it caught me off guard as that's what we call our grandparents

My parents were teenagers in the Netherlands during WWII. My dad had several places with other families where he'd go to pretend he was someone else when the Nazi's came with their list of young men to take off to the factories. It was only in 2010 that he recounted a close encounter with the soldiers. They surprised him by showing up at one of his locations, so he ducked into a chicken coop just before they caught sight of him. It was tiny, cramped, dusty and smelly in there, but he crouched down and stayed absolutely still as they questioned the family RIGHT outside the coop. At one point a bomb dropped nearby enough to shake the ground and the coop filled up with all the fine dust from the chickens. But he couldn't make a sound. He couldn't breathe, but a cough would have given him away. He held his breath as long as possible, nearly passing out until the dust settled enough he could breathe again. He told me this while helping me build a chicken coop for our place.

And that was partly because at the time many Christians in those countries were anti Jewish.

And if you read Das Kapital, you will see WHERE the idea of the "JudenFrage" came from. Giovanni Gentille picked up on that and AH was inspired by it, which AH openly ACKNOWLEDGES in "Mein Kampf.

But tankfully, opposite result of what they intended occurr. Serves by lesson to future or actual politics. Stay safe and have prosperous life.

Not so. "Did they find out why Hitler hated the Jews?" Hitler's Nazis were founded in his National Socialist Party. They were not 'right-wing' but racially distinct, ideologically 'left-wing', socialists who despised free-market capitalism. Hitler, and many Germans, hated Jewish people because they considered them capitalists. In particular they hated Jewish bankers, blaming them for the fall of post-WWI Germany (just Google this for more detail). Although also socialists (National Socialists), Nazis considered International Socialism (left-wing Communism) to be a Jewish conspiracy. You need to read 'Mein Kampf', wherein the origins of Hitler's ideology are described. The Nazis and Communism were both left-wing ideologies. The Book "Nietzsche and the Nazis" by Stephen Hicks describes this very well.

It's very hard to claim being "The master race". When the Jewish community were more educated and accomplished.

Did your grandmother support bombing children in gaza ? I'd presume that someone that went through such Trauma as her would've have something to say about this, but that's not my grandma, so what do I know.

I think you underestimate power of a dictatorship. Im not German, but I grew up in a communist country. My parents, relatives, everyone I knew hated our government, but it was impossible to do anything about it.

Not so ignorant if they recognize how history is repeating itself when Trump attacks and divides people based on race, religion etc and copies the language of Hitler. "Former President Donald Trump, who has been criticized for embracing some of the rhetoric of Nazi leader Adolf Hitler on the campaign trail, praised the genocidal German dictator while he was in the White House, his former chief of staff Marine General John Kelly, and other top aides told CNN. “He said, ‘Well, but Hitler did some good things.’ I said, ‘Well, what?’ And he said, ‘Well, [Hitler] rebuilt the economy.’ But what did he do with that rebuilt economy? He turned it against his own people and against the world. And I said, ‘Sir, you can never say anything good about the guy. Nothing,’” retired Marine Gen. John Kelly said. “It’s pretty hard to believe he missed the Holocaust, though, and pretty hard to understand how he missed the 400,000 American GIs that were killed in the European theater.”

Good and Evil do not exist in absolutes, it is an extremely childish vision of the reality of things. For what ? Because those are only mental productions nourished by one's own opinions. Everyone has their own vision of Good and Evil and everyone thinks that they are valid because they are precisely theirs. Please understand what I'm saying: your "He is Pure Evil" view is, ultimately, no more different than those who think their actions causing suffering are justified. It is this type of discourse fueled by attachment and madness - for the most serious cases - which is the creator and driving force of discord and hatred. For Hitler and his supporters, the Jews (to name but a few) were the Evil that was consuming society and their ambitions were justified for them. Unfortunately, the conditions were ripe for them to carry out their abominable madness. But don't think that Hitler and his followers were the only ones...in truth, friend, opinions are the wheels of the world, attachment is the hub. This crazy world has never stopped spinning for millennia and it is not ready to stop...

I have a problem with this yelling of history. Don't get me wrong, I know that I am somewhat better informed than many these days. But there is one mistake that upsets me. First, the number of massacred people should be twelve million not six. Half of those who were murdered were Jewish but that does not mean that the rest were not there and do not count. Twelve million human beings were slaughtered in those caps. Second, the atrocities were not limited to the camps. Millions were killed in villages, cities, and the countryside. It was the largest set of atrocities in human history.

@@daniellandreaux137 The Holocaust refers to the genocide that hit Jews. 6 million Jews so the number is correct. Everyone knows that not only jews were murdered. Statista refers to about 17 Million Humans killed by the Nazis in total.

And in fact a xenophobic fear of immigrants kept the USA from accepting a lot of Jewish refugees both before and after WW2 who later died in the Holocaust. So please dismount from the high horse, nobody is "destroying our youth" except for the people teaching xenophobia and a reluctance to work with the other side.

@@allenporter6586 well said.

@@allenporter6586 You choose very careful phrasing in order to make your very misleading point. "The US was one of the last western democracies to outlaw slavery." The US was the second "western democracy" to outlaw slavery. However, there only were THREE western democracies in 1865, so the US was among the last as well. The vast majority of the western world were still MONARCHIES at that point in time. Wording matters. You can word it how you did, trying to make the US look badly, or you can say the US was among the first nations in the world to outlaw slavery.

@@bobprivate8575 US was nowhere near first. A simple online search would have told you.

@allenporter6586 High horse? I never said that America doesn't have its sins and stains on humanity. God, our country is such a mess right now. I do not know where or what age you teach. You have one of the hardest jobs. You are not paid or respected the way people should. But you can not say that the kids are not more violent now, that they have little respect. Many believe all that police need to be defunded, that most of the police are corrupt. I lived in Los Angeles during the LA riots, just towns over, and I had friends with it on their streets. They were terrified to step out of their homes. Also, my friends' parent's had a small market that was looted so bad they almost lost their business. It was too dangerous to check if their business were destroyed. I also live near when people occupied areas in Seattle, not long ago.
