Persecution of the Jews

I found this piece to be a refresher on the Holocaust. This article just points out how interically planned out changed geared for specific reform with personal agenda taking affect can lead a country into more dispair. Hitler saw an in and he took it, and since no other politcal figure head seemed to be doing anything he took it and ran. The fact that the country went along with doesn't surprise, since humans have this air of "well its not happening to me, so I'm fine with it-as long as it not me" or "Its better you than me". It was in away survival, everyone had reason to fear Hitler, Jew or not, becuase you were either with him or against him. Hitler used the Jews as a scapegoat and used all of his power to wipe them out. He dictated there names, jobs, where they could be, and wheter they lived or died. He wanted to create this surpreme race he didn't even fit into, which is kinda ironic. I always thought it was odd that he didn't just kill all of them in the concentration camp, but I guess he wanted to prolong the suffering of the Jews to make up for the prolong suffering of the Nation.
