Question: This question is about the holocaust!.!.!.!.!.!?

I have seen the movie Shindlers List, Although it was an informative movie I wonderered about the events that led up to where the movie started!? Is there another movie that explains what led up to the part where Shindlers List starts!? Like what the peoples life was like,or if they suspected anything , it mostly was about the horrors endured by the Jews, not what life was like leading up to that!. I am curiouse if they believed something like that could never possibly happen!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

There was a mini series from the seventies that goes into a bit of the details of the Holocaust and I believe it's available on DVD!. It's name is Holocaust!. Schindler's List takes place in Poland in the city of Warsaw!. The Jewish people lived normal lives like anyone else in their communities and their only crime was they were Jewish!. The Jewish people were Hitler's scapecoats for all the problems of post WW One Germany and what the country was going through during the depression!. I don't believe anyone could believe that the leader of a country could be responsible for the muder of 6 million people, but it happened!. Stalin was responsible for 20 million Russians, It's unknown how many Mao Tse Tung is responsible for!. Pol Pot murdered at least 2 million Cambodians!. The Sudanses goverment is responsible for hundreds of thousands of people from Darfur!. Genocide has happened and is happening!. We as a human race must learn from it and do what is necessary to prevent it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I've never seen that movie, so where does it start exactly!?

But anyway, before WW2 the European Jews were quite well off, which was why Hitler decided to pick on them!. Germany was in hard times because of the first World War, and since the Jewish people had money, he blamed them!. They were scapegoats!.
Some Jewish people had an idea of what was going to happen and fled the country, though were usually caught when those countries were also occupied!. Other Jewish families refused to believe in the rumours, because they were just so terrible!.

The Jews were forced to wear yellow stars of David, they had a curfew, they weren't allowed in restaurants and movie theatres, they couldn't sit on park benches and sometimes they were not allowed to enter parks, their bikes and cars were taken away, they could not ride buses and streetcars, adults could not keep their jobs, and children could not go to school!.

Then they were forced into apartments in one section of their city, called ghettos, which they were not allowed to leave and which had up to four or five families per house!. From their they were put in cattle cars and loaded onto trains where they would be put in concentration camps and either gassed or worked to death!.

In the end, Hitler killed about six million Jews, handicapped, gypsies, homeosexuals, people who helped other people escape him, and people who opposed him!.

Luckily the Allies won! Www@QuestionHome@Com
