The Holocaust (from the Greek ὁλόκαυστος holókaustos: hólos, "whole" and kaustós, "burnt"), also known as the Shoah (Hebrew: השואה, HaShoah, "the catastrophe"), was a genocide in which Adolf Hitler's Nazi Germany and its collaborators killed about six million Jews. The number includes about one million children and represented about two-thirds of the nine million Jews who had resided in Europe. Some definitions of the Holocaust include the additional five million non-Jewish victims of Nazi mass murders, bringing the total to about eleven million. Killings took place throughout Nazi Germany and German-occupied territories.
From 1941 to 1945, Jews were systematically murdered in one of the largest genocide in history, which was part of a broader aggregate of acts of oppression and killings of various ethnic and political groups in Europe by the Nazi regime. Every arm of Germany's bureaucracy was involved in the logistics and the carrying out of the genocide. Other victims of Nazi crimes included Romanis, ethnic Poles and other Slavs, Soviet POWs, communists, homosexuals, Jehovah's Witnesses and the mentally and physically disabled. A network of about 42,500 facilities in Germany and German-occupied territories were used to concentrate victims for slave labor, mass murder, and other human rights abuses. Over 200,000 people are estimated to have been Holocaust perpetrators.

The story of the Holocaust from the perspective of the Weiss Family of German Jews, and that of a rising member of the SS, who gradually becomes a merciless war criminal. Highlights numerous important events which occurred up to, and during, World War II, such as Kristallnacht, the creation of Jewish ghettos and later, the tragedy of the concentration camps.
This extraordinarily moving documentary tells the story of Holocaust survivor, Henia Bryer, in her own words. Born into a middle-class Jewish family, Henia lost her father, brother and sister during the German occupation. She survived four concentration camps (including Auschwitz) and the horror of the Death March. Henia went on to bear witness to the creation of Israel in 1948 before making a new life for herself in South Africa. Created with the intimacy of a home movie by Henia’s niece Lisa Bryer, producer of many films including The Last King of Scotland, it was made so her grandchildren could see her story in her own words. This is a gripping monologue. A truly remarkable story that the BBC cleared their schedules to broadcast on Holocaust Day. Want to watch more full-length Docum...

ONE DAY IN AUSCHWITZ Documentary that follows 89-year-old Holocaust survivor Kitty Hart-Moxon's poignant return to the former Nazi death camp where she was sent 70 years earlier, with her mother, at the age of 16. Making the journey with two teenage girls, Hart-Moxon recounts the ever-present threat of death, and the resilience, friendship and human strength that allowed her to survive one day at a time, against the odds. Auschwitz-Birkenau was designed to kill. Four gas chambers murdered thousands at a time, belching out smoke and human ashes. Starvation, thirst, disease, and hard labor reduced the average lifespan to less than three months. More than 1-million people perished in the largest German Nazi concentration and extermination camp. Seventy years after her liberation, Kitty Hart...

Here are 5 truly sad facts about the Holocaust. NUMBER 1 - During the early years of the Holocaust, carbon monoxide was used in the infamous gas chambers. However an insecticide in the form of a pellet, Zyklon B, was developed - which proved to be even deadlier. The pellets were dropped into the chamber, where they released a highly toxic gas to kill those inside. The death induced by the insecticide was a painful one, which caused people to bleed from t...

And I read in the book of James last night
What my life really is
A vapour on the wind that vanishes in time without a
trace
And now that I am old and sick
I think I understand it well
I had a restless night last night
As though it might be my last one
It is cold out his morning
My breath hangs in the air
I try to hide my memories inside a safe place in my
head
Where even death itself might not break in to steal and
to erase
But everything is so confused
A panic withers me inside
And as I fall to meet the ice
I know there's nothing can be done
I just want the ones I love to know I tried
People with purpose and a life to live
I see their rushing feet
No on will stop to help this old bugger
Who's collapsed in the street
I am the vanquished
I have had my go at life
And now it's done
A heavy clouds obscures the sun
As if in recognition
And I fight for Islam in the streets of Lebanon
The holy war requires I give myself up to fate
Allah knows and loves his own
Standing on the top floor of a broken tower block
In a good position to see Christian militia
Hezbollah is my family
Many would not attempt to sneak into this district
But I have the Koran sewn into my fine young heart
Suddenly the night below
Is lit up by the blasting of gunfire
And Christian bullets rip around my head
And now I'm on a fire escape
Running upwards
But somehow the soldiers see me
They are just below
On a flat roof now
I don't know how
But I am on my back
And they stand right over me
They are strange and silent
Around me a soft rain falls
This is not what I thought martyrdom would be like
It may be their Mary would have me to see heaven
And I don't know how long I've lain here on this
bedsitter bed
The agony I call my past now
Was the prime of my life
My only companions in this room
Are the flies that dance around my head
I am resolved to take my life
My last dream on earth was so nice
The angels walked on the ocean
They came to me alone on the shore
Only Jesus can know the heart of the outcast
God knows all the rivers of life that flow into the
deep dark sea
