Persuasive Essay
Have you ever wondered what it was like during the time of the Holocaust? Well, if so then your question might just be answered. I believe that the time of the Holocaust was horrible and should not be repeated; however there is a possibility for that to happen. First, the United States is in the middle of a war with ISIS and that could possibly lead to another Holocaust that we will ignore; second, the conflicts between North Korea and United States, and finally Sudanese refugees are stepping into dangerous waters because not everybody is happy with them coming into the United States and other countries.
First of all, I believe a second Holocaust can grow from the

Kim Jung-un is starving his people just because he wants money to build nuclear weapons; he will not let any of his more wealthy people help the starving unless they give him their consent in building the weapons. The leaders of the world hands are tied because they cannot get into North Korea and they only way to get in is to do it with force. “The roughly 24 million people who live in the totalitarian state have minimal interaction with the outside world. Foreign media is forbidden, interaction with tourists is strictly controlled and the internet is inaccessible to almost everyone.” (Alfred How North Korea became so isolated) On the other, hand others believe that this is just a faze and there can be peace. Kim Jong-un wants complete power over everybody in North Korea. “State Surveillance permeates the private lives of citizens.”(Life in Korea: executions, starvation and …show more content…
First of all, there is a war going on in Sudan which breaks a peace deal. The war started in late 2013 and people cannot stay there; many have just left with the clothes on their backs and a couple of belongings or family heirlooms. Many are flowing into Uganda at an extremely rapid rate and the countries cannot keep up the conglomeration of people sporadically flowing into their countries. In turn, countries are ignoring them; they are not acknowledging that these people need homes and have been wondering for weeks. “Civil war engulfed the country amid fierce political tensions in late 2013, and the collapse of a subsequent peace deal in July of this year caused the massive surge of people fleeing to Uganda.”(South Sudanese refugees are flowing into Uganda at an unprecedented rate.) Of course, there are the people that would argue and say that they are letting refugees in. However they are turning away many more than they are welcoming in. Yet another reason to testify how people today do not bother to look around them and are instead wrapped up in what is going on in
In history there was many events that were horrifying. The Holocaust was one of those frightful events. During the World War II, the nazis were the ones in charge of the Holocaust. Six million Jews, homosexuals, and gypsies were killed and the survivors had to live their life with fear. These writers use several techniques in order to convey the horrors of the Holocaust.
“Holocaust.” Encyclopedia of American Religion and Politics, Updated Edition, Facts On File, 2008. American History, online.infobase.com/Auth/Index?aid=97310&itemid=WE52&articleId=169859.

This audience is addressed by citing historical evidence of the Holocaust. It is hard to argue with history, especially with an event as appalling as the Holocaust. By doing so the author is forcing this hostile audience to take a hard look at the similarities between that time period and present day. It is important to study history so that we can learn from mistakes and prevent that situation from happening again, which is the point the author tried to make by drawing this conclusion. The comparison to this atrocious time period also subliminally hints to the ethics of allowing refugees into the country because it is morally correct and would be the best way to show that we have learned enough from the Holocaust to attempt preventing another
During the Holocaust, six million Jews were sent to their deaths. Nevertheless, in the Holocaust literature, one can find the glimpse of joy. In 1933, in Germany, Adolf Hitler and his Nazi party created a German Empire & Jews were no place in Hitler’s vision. Love & Laughter were two of the main things that made Jews and other people forget the time happening in the Holocaust, including nature. Almost 2,700,000 Jews were sent to extermination camps such as, Treblinka and Chelmno, where they were lately killed.
There is no doubt about the fact that the Holocaust was a horrible time, but just how bad was life in the case of Jewish men, women, and even children. Life as they knew it changed forever during World War II. They were treated as extremely low class citizens. Just being alive was torture to them as the Nazis made their lives and every aspect of them into a living nightmare. Almost every situation relates back to the basics of life food, money, and a job.
Time can no change your actions and what those actions caused for others. If you successfully evade those who wish to fairly punish you for your actions, you should not be rewarded with them giving up the search for you. This is the premise for the debate for whether or not the nazi soldiers who participated in the Holocaust. The arm of the law does not care how old you are or when you commited the crime. This is why we must continue to pursue the nazis who participated in the war.
Introduction: During the Holocaust, many people suffered from the despicable actions of others. These actions were influenced by hatred, intolerance, and anti-semitic views of people. The result of such actions were the deaths of millions during the Holocaust, a devastating genocide aimed to eliminate Jews. In this tragic event, people, both initiators and bystanders, played major roles that allowed the Holocaust to continue. Bystanders during this dreadful disaster did not stand up against the Nazis and their collaborators.
Should the Holocaust be Taught in School? The Holocaust was a tragic event that killed and scarred millions. It is of the common misconception that only Jews were scarred by The Holocaust, however, the reality is that anyone that did not fit the expectation of Hitler perceived to be of a correct breed was killed, exiled, or imprisoned. Although this was a tragic and turning point of history, many claim it should not be taught in schools.
The African seeking Asylum in U.S.A: Every year the POTUS in consultation with congress allocates regional refugee admissions as well as an overall admission ceiling, for example, 76,000 was the number of refugee admissions authorized in 2012 and 70,000 was proposed for 2013. (http://www.refugeehealthta.org/files/2011/10/FY-2013-Report-to-Congress.pdf) by the Office of Refugee Resettlement. Africa’s regional allocation has consistently been about 10% (12,000-15,000) of the ceiling for the last 5 years. In 2011 and 2012 alone conflicts in Africa have created 850,000 new refugees, therefore, for an African to be granted asylum in U.S among the allocated 12,000, one must fulfill certain stringent eligibility criteria. 48% of the my (http://www.musinguzilaw.com/practice-areas/
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.
Unsuspecting Children of the Holocaust 1.5 million children: dead. All the children of the Holocaust were affected by Hitler’s rule. Some were sent to war, some endured unnecessary hardships, while others perished. The children found ways to survive, dealt with what Hitler dealt them, and coped with death all while the world was falling to pieces around them.
This book shows how the Holocaust should be taught and not be forgotten, due to it being a prime example of human impureness. Humans learn off trial and error, how the Jewish population was affected, decrease in moral, and the unsettled tension are prime examples of such mistakes. The Jewish population was in jeopardy, therefore other races in the world are at risk of genocide as well and must take this event as a warning of what could happen. In the Auschwitz concentration camp, there was a room filled with shoes.
The Syrian refugee crisis, a product of the civil war in Syria, has dominated headlines in the news recently. Even though there is support to have these migrants resettled, there is a major pushback against refugees going into Europe and the United States. This debate will get more heated with this being one of the main issues in the presidential campaign, with the opposition growing in numbers due to the recent terrorists attack However, the opposition 's arguments against Syrian Refugees can be boiled down to fear and ignorance. If our country listens to the fear spreading around the world today, then the people who will suffer will be the Syrian Refugees. Elizabeth Warren, a U.S. senator from Massachusetts, argues, “We face a choice, a choice to lead the world by example, or to turn our backs to the threats and suffering around us” , which clearly exposes the fact that if we succumb to fear, not only we will turn our back on the refugees, but so will many other countries (Warren Video).
Welcome to all delegates that are here to discuss the Treaty of Versailles. As you can see, France has been utterly destroyed from this tragic war. France had an exasperating total of 1,400,000 deaths. This means that approximately 900 French soldiers were killed each and every day. In addition to that, artilitary shells, mines, trenches, and many more causes, caused great destruction to homes, villages, and agricultural orchards.
