Yes. From 1933 onwards (when the Nazis came to power) many Jews tried to leave Germany, but they needed somewhere (and if possible, also a job) to go to. Immigration to the U.S., Britain and most other countries was very strictly controlled, and usually refugees had to have financial guarantees (from relatives or charities) within these countries, so that they 'would not become a burden'. Different countries had, of course, different rules. Between 1933 and 1941 the U.S. admitted about 250,000 refugees from Germany and Austria; between 1933 and 1939 Britain admitted 71,000, Australia about 50,000, Canada only 5,000 (!!), New Zeland fewer than 1,000 ... (These figures are for all refugees from Germany and Austria, and therefore include political refugees, many of whom were not Jewish). The situation was desperate.

The holocaust was when Hitler tried to eliminate the Jews by mass murder and genocide. The cause was antisemitism turned evil.
there are many reasons but when Hitler became chancellor of Germany he was feeling angry because his artwork in his school in Austria was turned down by a Jewish teacher.Thats one reason
Well, there were rumors a geneologist concluded. He apparently traced Hitler's family tree to a name that stunned people. The name was Salmon ((a Jewish name)). And so there was a building that could prove that Hitler was indeed part Jewish, Hitler burned it to the ground in case the rumor was true (( and if it turned out to be true, just imagine how his power would die slowly and someone else would take control, and for being Jewish, HE would have to go to a concentrion camp!))There is indeed another rumor in which he hated Jewish people because he had a Jewish wife who had left him for another Jew. ((The first rumor was on the History Channel and the second is known in certain books))
Hitler was the driving force behind the Holocaust. He ranted and raved like crazy against the Jews, calling them traitors, Communists and all sorts of other things designed to make them hated. His willing brown-nosed henchmen and lackeys then got on with it. He played a role in giving some of the orders, approving plans and so on. (Obviously, nobody suggests that he personally turned on gas taps with his own hands). His exact role in the Holocaust is not altogether clear, however.
The cold war was a time in which the Soviet Union who are known now as Russia began dominating countries and changing them into Communist. It was a time in which things fall apart in Europe because countries turned against each other, people died children and Parent lost each other and people have to decide either to be a Communist or Capitalism.
The usa. turned away the jewish people who wanted to come here. So, thatdid not make America so holy
I think that the nazis just captured jewish people weter they were in their homes or anywhere else. After people were captured they were either tourtured and turned into slaves or they got taken to the gas chambers.
The irony lies in the fact that the Franks, a Jewish family, lived in Germany, which under Nazi rule became a hostile environment for Jewish people. The country where the Franks once lived turned against them, resulting in their persecution during the Holocaust.
The Holocaust was the systematic genocide of Jews at the hands of the German military during World War II. The German military at that time was under the command of Adolf Hitler. It is estimated that 6 million people, mostly Jewish, were killed during the Holocaust.
It was important because the German Jewish people were not accepted in other countries and the ships were turned back to Germany were those refugee's died in the Concentration CAMPS
During Hitlers Holocaust (1941-1945), The Jewish people were chosen as Hitlers target to prove to the world that he would do whatever he needed to control races under his power as he saw fit. Thus he turned to antisemitism, or the portrayal of hatred or anger toward the Jewish people, and started to ban Jews from everything in daily life, SUCH AS DRIVING CARS, he took away their rights.
Many were sent to 'relocation camps' which turned out to be death camps.
Once a country's quota was met, Jews were turned away.

A German ocean liner filled with Jewish refugees, 740 (of 943) of whom had US immigration papers who were turned away from America and ultimately forced to return to Europe; more than half of its passengers were later killed in the Holocaust
It could be his wives who were not Jewish.
