The Holocaust (Warsaw, the capital of Poland, Hitler, fascism)

Time of occurrence: During World War II, Nazi Germany invaded Poland (Warsaw)

On September 1, 1939, World War II officially ignited on the European battlefield. In Poland, after the German invasion, the Jews were ransacked and mass murdered, the synagogue was destroyed, and the Jews were sentenced to collective fines. Soon, all Polish Jews were driven into the Jewish quarantine, leading an extremely painful life that was not as good as dead. Hunger threatened them seriously, and infectious diseases were also prevalent in the extremely crowded ghetto. The Jews closest to the exit of the Jewish Quarter could die at any time under the guns of German soldiers...

The exile of Greek Jews is one of the most barbarous acts of fascism. During the ten-day journey, the Jews who were driven out were exhausted when they arrived at the concentration camp, but what awaited them was slave-like work and wanton slaughter. The most famous Jewish uprising in Warsaw is a glorious example of Jewish resistance to fascism. (Historical records: In 1943, when the Germans attempted to completely clear the Warsaw Jewish Quarter, they encountered the desperate resistance of a secretly armed Jewish combat team. The fighting was extremely fierce. The Jews repelled the Germans twice. Later, due to the enemy's strength. The disparity was too large and the Jews were in a bad situation. Under the intimidation of German artillery, tanks, and flamethrowers, the Jewish combat team turned into desperate street fighting. In order to drive out the hidden Jews, the Germans set fire to their houses and went to shelters. Throwing smoking cans inside destroyed the sewers and underground bullet shelters, and finally declared the failure of the Jewish uprising with the destruction of the synagogue. In this 28-day battle, tens of thousands of Jews contributed Precious life.)

  • Antonina Zabinski: You can never tell who your enemies are, or who to trust. Maybe that's why I love animals so much. You look in their eyes, and you know exactly what's in their hearts. They're not like people.
