World War II

F. Rivera

In this five paragraph entry you going to read about a lot of things that happened in World War II. Things like what happened. Who started the war. What were they doing. Who they were against. Some of these things you might already know, but there are some things you might know.

It was a man who suddenly came out with knew ideas. People thought that some of his ideas were good. His name was Hitler, and he wanted to take over the world. He thought that he could do that be killing some specific people he thought was essential for his plan to work. Those people he had to kill or exterminate (is what they say instead of killing) were the black, gays, and the Jews. They killed them by sending them to concentration camps.

These concentration camps were places hidden in forest. People were taking there by trains in carts. Once they got off of those carts they separated them by men and women. The men and women that had any skills in something useful got sent to the camps. The people who didn’t were sent to the showers. Basically they were poison gas chambers or ovens. It was something that a true mad man could do.

The worst thing about it was that people didn’t know what was happening. I am not kidding. There was a town right next to a camp. There was air smelled like burnt skin and hair, yet they claimed they didn’t know what was happening in those camps. People are dieing in these camps because of Hitler, but people who are not in the camps are worshiping him. That right there is stupidity.

As I learned about this I was thinking why did Hitler do that. Some say he became crazy and mad. Some thing he had a weird childhood. Others think he was just too smart for his own good. I really don’t know. I just feel bad for all the people who had to suffer.
