Would there be an event like the Holocaust and again be ignored? Every inevitable dystopian event that is happening is starting to develop the event like the Holocaust, but many people have turned a blind eye on the events happening today. Although, many people could see the perspective on why people would turn a blind eye, but should know that these events would soon lead up to an event like the Holocaust. I agree that an event like the Holocaust can start again and be ignored because North Korea is making dangerous things, ISIS, who are miscreants, attack people, and people in Darfur are being killed.
To begin, an event like the Holocaust can start and be ignored again because in this period of time North Korea is creating chaos. North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong-un, has made a decision to make nuclear weapons; however, he has made the people, in North Korea, starve to death and made no one interfer. “The US mainland and its "operational theater in the Pacific" are now within North Korea 's "striking range," KCNA quoted Kim as saying.
He warned the US and South Korea to refrain from "hurting the dignity and security of North Korea"

ISIS is a dangerous group attacks nations and are formidable or bring fear to others. “(CNN) - The United Nations described a joint suicide bombing that killed 80 people in Afghanistan as a "war crime," saying those responsible for the attack on a peaceful demonstration will be held accountable.
ISIS claimed responsibility for the bombing in the capital Saturday.” (Visser and Popalzai). The government should focus on the events that are creating dystopia, that would soon lead up to the Holocaust, and help those who are in need then ignore them. To end, an event like the Holocaust can happen and be ignored because ISIS is attacking while the nation should help those in
In April 1999, Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel addresses the President, First Lady, several members of the government, and the American public with a speech titled “The Perils of Indifference.” He provides examples of indifference during World War II. Similarly, he reasons why indifference in the future has the potential to cause disaster. As the country turns its back on people, a multitude of victims suffer. Wiesel feels the responsibility to spread awareness as he personally felt the effects of indifference.
According to the document 25-3, “The Holocaust: A Journalist Reports on Nazi Massacres of Jews, the massacre of the Jews,” the Holocaust, affected not only Jews, but it also affected the United States. The writer of the Journalist reports, Varian Fry, offers possible responses to the Holocaust by the United States and its allies. However, most citizens in Allied countries did not believe the Holocaust, and their governments were optimistic about solving this problem. As a journalist who saw what is really happening in the Germany, he criticizes how reluctant the Allies are. The document suggests not only the United States needed to recognize the fact that Jews were suffering from the Nazis, but it also shows that the entire world needed to accept that there was a such massacre.
After WWII, there was communism fever in the northern part of the world. This domineering outbreak of communism threatened the US and our capitalist allies. Through the outbreaks, the US took things to drastic measures and did everything in their power to stop communism, causing multiple wars and combat. During June of 1950, North Korea first invaded the Southern part of Korea due to their pessimistic views on communism.
Currently there is a similar situation happening, not in Nazi Europe but within the walls of North Korea. One by one each, North Korean citizen is deprived of their humanitarian rights. According, to Free Korea.com“ North Korea has allowed between 600,000 and 2,500,000 of its people to starve to death while its government squandered the nation’s resources on weapons and luxuries for its ruling elite.” The FreeKorea site includes that the current czar of North Korea has placed up to 120,000 civilians in its system of concentration camps, and that 400,000 people have died in these camps from torture, starvation, disease, and execution. Lastly, the website creates a realization on how fear (from a ruling dictator) can easily blind one from the truth to become a bystander.
However, In order to prevent such an event from transpiring, the society must be informed on the history that occurred prior. If the camps are no longer present, this will promote ignorance in our society and also a lack of knowledge being that the Auschwitz camp is the last evidence remaining after the final survivor dies and it also serves a
“It is generally not known in the world that, in the years preceding 1916, there was a concerted effort to eliminate all the Armenian people, probably one of the greatest tragedies that ever befell any group. And there weren’t any Nuremberg trials”(Carter, 1987). Jimmy Carter, the thirty-ninth president of the United States, said this quote at the White House reception honoring Armenian Americans in May of 1978. It shows how little is known about the Armenian Genocide and that the survivors never received closure like the Holocaust survivors did with the Nuremberg Trials. During the Armenian Genocide, which lasted from 1915 until 1916, 1.2 million Armenians were brutally murdered.
Not many people today could imagine the pain and suffering that millions of innocent Jews had gone through during the Holocaust. It’s something that people tend to not think about and bury it in the back of their minds. The brutal truth, though, is that these events did happen. Millions of innocent women and children were murdered, men and boys were starved, and it seemed like all hope was lost. As much as we resent it, we need to think about it sometimes, so that we do not make the same mistakes in the future.
World Without Genocide states, “Over 480,000 people have been killed, and over 2.8 million people are displaced.” Using cultural relativism in the Darfur genocide, we can improve or stop the situation. Cultural relativism is understanding other cultures on their own terms, in their own context. A World Without Genocide says, the Darfur genocide started in 2003 and is being carried out by Arab militias called the Janjaweed.
The Holocaust lasted for four years, a mass genocide executed by Nazi Germany, with the goal to eradicate all Jews. Six million Jews were successfully murdered, and hardly anyone lifted a finger to help the thousands killed daily. Elie Wiesel was right in saying that 'Being a neutral bystander helps those who are evil; that remaining silent encourages even more evil to happen '. This is true, since evil always comes back and causes so many people so much pain.
Unfortnely that is different than other genocides we say never again for the holocaust, which is done, however genocides go on every single day in various places. In Africa, Darfur, is still taking place today believe it or not. We cant stop all the other genocides happening daily its is beyond over all our control. Darfur is located in Sudan that consists of mostly volcanic highlands. Darfur has a population of around 6 million people.
A living corpse Do you think the holocaust could happen again? Do you think if people aren 't aware of history that it can repeat self? If people aren 't aware of what happened in the holocaust and how horrific it was, then people wouldn 't know what to do if it happened again and people wouldn 't know how to prevent it from happening again. This memoir points out the worst parts of a personal experience of Elie Wiesel, a holocaust survivor.
The Holocaust is the worst event recorded in history that caused people to question our humanity. Mankind 's worst qualities were shown throughout the whole twelve years. We became inhumane and sadistic. “One day when we had come to a stop, a worker took a piece of bread out of his bag and threw it into a wagon. There was a stampede.
The holocaust caused a lot of trauma, for many people and races, and is still affecting people and their families today. With all the terrible burning, freezing, injections, and surgeries, it 's hard to realize that things like that actually happened. To today’s standards, all of the things that they did during World War II would be considered illegal in most countries. Especially under most cruel and unusual laws, if any of this were to happen in the United
ISIS terrorized for the radical beliefs of Islam and their religion. Recently ISIS carried out an attack in Egypt on Rawdah Sufi mosque in Bir al-Abed. CNN news states, “Between 25 and 30 armed men carried out the assault, and the death toll climbs above 300.” Another ISIS attack happened in Kabul, Afghanistan.
There is an article in the SCHOLASTIC NEWS that is on whether or not the holocaust could happen again based on the specialists and their knowledge on the holocaust facts. If the specialists are even considering it as a remote possibility that the holocaust could happen again what are we as people doing to stop it. If people don’t start going something about there is no doubt that the holocaust can and will happen again. Could you be doing something to stop mass genocide instead of saying it won’t happen again? Don’t just say that someone else will take care of it or it doesn't concern you, get up and change the way you act towards others and prevent a repeat of the terrible gruesome events that was Hitler and the
