Exterminations back


 * < During the Holocaust, the Nazis had a certain view on the world. Thier ideas were brutal and cruel, putting many people threw depression and a long walk to freedom. The Nazis's ideas in the Holocaust era were very racial; anyone who wasn't their race or had mental disabilities-according to their views, should be dead. Many of those people they killed, were children. Throughout the whole Holocaust, the Nazis killed about 1.5 million Jewish children alone. The Nazis killed children because they believed that kids were "Unwanted or dangerous." (USHMM) Infants and babies had a better chance of survival, because they could not work at labor camps. New born babies were killed right after birth and infants, usually ages from 3-12, were killed at death camps. Kids from 13-18 years of age worked at labor camps and usually died there from starvation or over exhaustion from work. ||< [[image:children.GIF width="333" height="330" align="center"]] ||

||  There were five ways the Germans and their followers killed children. Each way was horrible and insane. The first way was right after a baby was born, the Nurses would take the baby away and kill it. The second way was once kids reached the death camps, they would be sent to the gas chambers and would be gassed till they were dead. The third way was in ghettos and other camps set up by the Nazis where they would die from starvation or lack of shelter. The fourth way was in labor camps where they would work as laborers. And the last way was in medical experiments where they would die from the tests the Germans did on them. Each way was extremely painful. ||
