Ethics of the Holocaust

Paper Summary:

This paper reflects on the moral and ethical implications of the genocide against the Jews. The unfortunate experience of many European nations in the hands and oppression of the Nazis is incomprehensible if brought in a discussion of morality issues. Nonetheless, this paper states that the strength and spirit of the oppressed and prisoners of the Nazi tyranny is something that we should commemorate despite the terrible crimes they have witnessed.

From the Paper:

"The history of anti-semitism in the period of Holocaust was implicated by Hitler's hatred on the Jewish communities. His extreme abhorrence on Jewish people was demonstrated before the outbreak of World War II by saying that he would still annihilate every Jew if there will be another war (McFee, Gordon. Are the Jews Central to the Holocaust?). Accounts as to when and how did Hitler acquire such hostility against the Jews are still unknown to history. Assumptions say that his anti-semitism was caused by his previous experiences with Jewish people. Or, others believe that he was influenced by anti-semitics such as Chamberlain and Eckart (McFee, Gordon. Are the Jews Central to the Holocaust?)."
