After the war, those that had survived the Holocaust were often afraid to return to their homes. They were afraid of anti-Jewish feelings. In some cases, Jews were attacked and killed or injured. They had survived life in one camp to end up living in another camp- one for DPs (Displaced persons). When the nation of Israel was formed, many looked at Israel as a place that the Jews could call home, and they moved there in large numbers.
