Kristallnacht: The Night of Broken Glass
September 12, 2014 | Tagged Hitler, Holocaust, Kristallnacht, Nazi, WWII | 2 Comments
The 9th of November 1938, the Germans implemented the program of Kristallnacht. During Kristallnacht, any and all Jewish businesses and synagogues were burned down and looted. Alongside with having their religious temples burned and their businesses destroyed, many Jews were killed and some committed suicide. In the video below it is estimate that 155o temples were destroyed and 2500 Jews died that day, as well as 30000 Jews sent to concentration camps, and tens of thousands of shops were destroyed/looted. This event marked the full birth of the Socialist regime of Nazi Germany, which was the extermination of the Jewish race, also known as the holocaust. Many non-Jewish people who witnessed this destruction and humiliation did nothing but watched as sacred places were decimated, Jewish businesses were removed, Jewish families were torn apart, and innocent Jews throughout Nazi Germany were murdered. This apathy throughout Nazi Germany, was fuel to the next world war.
