Punished Jews


“ It was very hard there for the Jews-terrible!” “ Another fellow told us of a relative in Brandenburg - the police came to his house and no one heard again from him” “it was many,many such stories- synagogues burned, Jews beaten with no reason, whole towns pushing out all Jews each story worse than the other” “Let’s hope those Nazi gangster get thrown out of power!” “Just pray that they don’t start a war. From  Vladek,Friends, Maus 1, pg 33
 
This quote shows how the Nazis treated the Jews when the war started. This quote also shows Hatred and Violence because, in these pictures, the Nazis are making the Jew walk with a sign saying “I AM A FILTHY JEW”. The next one shows Germans beating other Jews. Reading the caption those are just stories. I can’t believe that they put these signs this make me mad have Jews out of a town that bad.They aren't like animals. They are humans being. I feel bad that the Jews had to go through this cause of Hitler. Hitler did many thing to get the Jews out of the places like Poland
that why he made death camps ghettos and concentration camps.

This quote reminds me of the theme fear because you have Germans soldiers ordering you to do something that you don't want to do. These Germans soldiers are capable of killing Jews if they don't obey the commands of the Germans soldier. These Germans soldiers looks scary with their guns and the faces. Like them if  see police officer I get scared when they look at me I think about  the things I did wrong and think that they are going to arrest me. I don't think I would be brave enough to do the thing other Jews would do like the uprising in Warsaw. when the Jews fought against the Nazis
.Do you think that Jews were lucky to survive the Holocaust?
