What were the exact dates of the Holocaust?

Answer 1

This will get you extra credit I know you will not believe it but there has been a holocaust in this country (I mean other then what we did to the native Americans) take a look at Johnson s Island (northern Ohio); Camp Douglas (Chicago); and Elmira (New York).

The official U.S. position on the treatment of Confederate prisoners of war during The War for Southern Independence would shock many modern Americans. The data, facts and statistics have been thoroughly eliminated from American history books. One must research the original documents to discover the horrible truth.

During the Civil War (1861-1865), the U.S. House of Representatives passed the following resolution: "Rebel prisoners in our hands are to be subjected to a treatment finding its parallels only in the conduct of savage tribes and resulting in the death of multitudes by the slow but designed process of starvation and by mortal diseases occasioned by insufficient and unhealthy food and wanton exposure of their persons."

One Yankee prison commander boasted that he had killed more Confederate soldiers than any Union officer on the front battle lines.

The story of Confederate prison camps, especially Andersonville, has been misrepresented. There was no deliberate attempt to mistreat northern POWs. The South asked the North to send doctors and medicine, and they tried to exchange the prisoners.

The North refused and finally the Confederacy offered the North cotton and gold as payment to take them without exchange. Again, the North refused to do so. They knew the Confederate States of America would be honor bound to try to feed and house the Union POWs and to do so would hamper the Confederate war effort.

Answer 2

January 20, 1942 to Novmber 1944.

These dates correspond to the date of the Wannsee Conference held in 1942 where the "final solution to the Jewish problem" was decided ...state sponsored genocide and high-volume extermination.

The 1944 date coincided with Himmlers decision to takeapart and destroy the crematoria at Auwswitz as the Red Army approached from the east.

Prior to 1942, there were depridations and concentration camps for sure, but the wholesale genocide and mass exterminations were done after '42. And after nov '44, many died for sure waiting for liberation by allied armies up until the end of the war in April 1945, but the wholesale and high volume extermination was greatly curtailed.

The high water mark of deaths occurred between Mar 1944 and Nov 1944 when 600,000 Jews werre gassed at the death camps.

Answer 3

Early elements of the Holocaust include the Kristallnacht pogrom of 8 and 9 November 1938 and the T-4 Euthanasia Program, leading to the later use of killing squads and extermination camps in a massive and centrally organized effort to exterminate every possible member of the populations targeted by Adolf Hitler and the Nazis.

Documented evidence suggests that the Nazis planned to carry out their 'final solution' in other regions if they were conquered, such as the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. The extermination continued in different parts of Nazi-controlled territory until the end of World War II, only completely ending when the Allies entered Germany itself and forced the Nazis to surrender in May 1945.
