These are comments left by visitors to the Holocaust History Project web site, in the month of November, 1998. Hi, I would just like to say that I understand what your ancestors went though for my ancestors where people of slavery. The holocaust and slavery are one of the same, the only difference is the way our people where treated. Together as one we may one day get through this. By all means we will never ever forget and we must never let our children forget it either. I will continue to strive for my people right of passage in this country. Thank-you Teri Weakley
I am a Christian, and have been hearing things about martyrs, and how they were treated way back when. I've also been told that we should be prepared to be persecuted and rejected for beliving in Jesus. But we should take our example from the Jews. Even though I don't believe the same things they do, they must be the most persecuted religion in the history of the world, after what happened in the holocaust. I'm studying it in grade 11 socails, and cannot think of anything that would be worse than what the Jews went through. Everyone of them has my sympathies, but I wish that there was more that I could do. I look up to them, and admire their strong faith in God. I don't think I could ever ever have that much faith, ever!
as a world 2 vet. i know all of the pictures and stories are tru never again.
My name is Michaelidou Christina and I am from Greece. I find your page realy interesting. My familly have safered so much from that war. After all that years I am now trying to find my lost grandfather who was Italian and he was a prisoner in Auschwitz. There he met my grandmother who is from Greece. They stayed together 5 years and they were really in love. But the times were very hard. By the end of the war they lost each other and since then they never see each other again. the time they were lost my grandmother was pregnand to my mother. It is very important for me and all my familly to find and fanally meet him. I wiil appreciate if anyone who is interested wants to help our research. Thanks
send me stuff
As always I am stunned and horrified yet full of admiration for the Jewish Nation. We must never forget,and we must all ensure that it never happens again BE ON OUR GUARD FOR THE JEWS and ALL persecuted people. My admiration for the Jewish people does not diminish. Best Wishes always Mary
I have found this page very useful as it answers the majority of questions that I had about the holocaust. It is great that such a site as this does exist as it teaches the children of today what happened as I think that schools should teach children on this subject as they tend to "shy" away from teaching such a thing to children.
I really did like the Holocaust History Project Page because it helped me a lot. I'm a sophomore in high school and in english class we have been reading the book "Night" and know we have to do a research paper on the survivors of the Holocaust and what it was like during the Holocaust. In our paper, we have to use some personally life stories. If anyone has any more information that you think will help me if you could email me and tell me what you have and I will see if it can help because I have to have alot of resources. Thanks Alot - Jessica
Really unbelievable
Really unbelievable
This page is awesome for anyone young or old, any race or religion. I'm a senior in high school who has always had a strong love for researching the holocaust. I pray that this never takes place again to any group people of the world again. Study it and share whatever you learn. I have wrote a poem called "The Feelings Of Auschwitz" copyright 1997 I want to share it. If you would like to read it e-mail me. Remember the past and learn from it, don't relive it.
Incredible, unbelievable and heartbreaking..
you should have more on the concentration camps.
Is it possible that you can send me some info. about holocaust sdurvivors in the NewJersey area?
I am a college student who has always been intrigued by holocaust related issues. I've started research on the mentality of Hitler and Nazi officials, and am trying to discover why so many people participated in the violence of the holocaust. Were they " brainwashed " ? Please e mail me with any ideas.
I have read so much about the holocaust and yet I still feel there is so much more to learn. It is a shame we do not learn from the past especially with what has been happening in Kosovo. I still find it hard to believe that some people deny the Holocaust ever happened.
I have been reading everything I can find on the subject of the holocaust and this site has been extremely helpful with deciding the content of my masters thesis. Thankyou!
This is an awesome way to find information on a big historical event!
Mans inhumanity too man knows no bounds and this is why future generations should never be allowed to grow up without learning what evil deeds took place at these camps. A very good site but should have more photographs to depict the horrors that where inflicted. As the saying goes a picture paints a thousand words.
After reading this article about the Holocaust, Icouldn't help but think about all of those people that died just because of their religion. But what makes it worse is that prejudice still goes on today. A wealth of information.
I have read some accounts and stories (Schindler's List, Treblinka, Anne Frank, etc.) that have overwhelmed me with the overwhelming horror each person went through. I cannot bear to think of each of these personal horror stories multiplied by millions. One cannot bear it. I cannot bear to think of it yet I am compelled to learn more. I feel as though I must learn more - if they had to live and die in it, then I am guilty if I am afraid to look it.
We read the Maus books by Art Speiglman and really enjoyed them both. We were really interested in the Holocaust that we wrote a book about it for school. Our teacher loved it so much we got an A. Thank you for your help.
i am a 15 year old high school student who has always been very interested in history .today i read a story that really got to me , so bad that i couldnt stop thinking about it all day. this paticular story was about the holocaust.i am very interested , i would love to get more invloved , please if anyone has any info that would help please let me know ,,,,,,, thank you
Never Forget!
Interesting site and great information, could use more pictures a bit more concise info. Thanks.
This is one of the best sites I have seen so far on the Holocaust. Keep up the research.
Add more pictures to the page! The rest of it is interesting.
I am accessing the project from the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, the Office of the Prosecutor, where we finally just go access to Internet. I am in the search for relevant legal material and am pleased to see that you are putting the records of the Nuremberg Trial at the disposal to the world in this manner. For practitioners it is a bit difficult to use the page-by-page format, but it is a very good initiative any ways. Best Regards Mathias Marcussen Legal Adviser
this is a very good website. i have been researching world war two for a long time, but this is the best holocaust webpage yet. i belive that you should never let the world forget what happened to our people. my family are swedish jews. they practice conservative judaism. we thank you, always REMEMBER THE HOLOCAUST.
I enjoyed reading your web page. It was very unique and thero and it helped me a lot in my world history class {we're studing the Holocausts, stalin, and hitler.
It is great for me as a history student to have comprehsive access to these essays and documents. It is important to keep the memory of the Shoah so that we, the 3rd generation, can try to make sure it really never happens again - to the best of our control!
how would i get information sent to me on the holocaust
I'v noticrd in all of these, there is none on children. Ifeel that is wrong and disrespectful to those children that died in the holocaust.
I have been interested in the concentration camps for a long time, mostly because I am German and my Great grandfather was in one because he was a politican who was against what Hitler was doing. I am also doing a research paper on a few camps after we read the novel NIGHT, so if any of you have any historical information on Belsen, Birkenau, or Buchenwald, please e-mail me. Thanks a bunch!
I am currently writing a novel with the working title, "Kellman". It concerns itself with the aftermath of horror in an individual's life. The availability of this site is invaluable to my research. Thank you.
Hi. I would liket o comliment you on your page. It is very uqiue. I I enjoyed reading about the holocaust. It also helped me get and a on my project. I am very pleased that you would like to help kids with all of this.
It is scary to think about the atrocities that ocurred during the war, but it is something that must be done, to remind us. Thank you.
I've been interested in the Holocaust since I was in 4th grade. But all I can ask is, why? I have done about 5 reports on it so, therefore, I know quite a bit about it. I'm really glad there are web sites about it, I get alot of information.
I'm glad that someone took the time to do this. It is great for reports and teaches anyone who reads it a valuable lesson. Thanks for taking the time!!!!
I have been searching several different web sites and I have found that your web Sight has given me the most vital information for my project I have found.
I have been interested in the Holocaust since I was a young girl. I've learned an awful lot about it, i love learning about the Holocaust. I'm doing a project on it this year, and as I am completing it, I'm finding out lots more stuff. Your web site was a great help to me, it's one of the best ones I've found. Keep up the good work!!!
I really don't understand at all what exactly went on during the holocaust. I don't think anyone that wasn't there does. There is no way that this could ever happen, but it did. That's what makes it so bad. I wish I could have known what was going through the heads of the Nazi's. It's a really awful thing that happened. There is so many other things that happened that are like the holocaust. Why does this world think that people should be destroyed because they are different. All people are special in all ways. Their life is precious too!
Yes, history does repeat itself. We must not forget all the non-jewish victums of the Holocaust. Being Polish I feel alot of people do not know about the millions of Christians who suffered. I hope we may all be more educated on this topic.
History repeats itself. We MUST NEVER FORGET!!! I have learned a lot here. I want my children to know what has happened to the Jews. Who knows, next time it could be Christans.
Somewhere in South America still lives in comfort Nazi fugitives from the holocaust. Hopefully they die soon so their blight will be erased from the earth. Hopefully, also, their families did not inherit the base evil that these men (and women) forced on a the hapless residents of Europe. We must watch our own government, however, as it rushes headlong into socialism, and prepare our children for the ballot box.
The phenomenon of Holocaust Denial leaves most with a distateful dilemma. Simple acknowledgement of the phenomenon is, especially for the perpetrators, often equated with acknowledgement of the possibility of its veracity. On the other hand, no response might leave the perpetrators with a free-reign to infect the unsuspecting. The appropriate response, then, lies in two directions. First, reiteration of the story of the Holocaust, reaffirming its place in the Story of Humanity. Second, a deconstruction of the quasi-arguments of the Denier, showing them up as non-arguments, and an explication of the Denier's motives, since his motives cannot be to enter the field of sincere argument. For those interested in such endeavours, this website seems to provide an excellent starting place.
I find the site very interesting. This is my first visit to the site, but i am sure that i will visit again in the future. Currently, i am working on a paper for my media class about nazi propaganda, and i found your site to be helpful in regards to propaganda film. I don't know much about it, but this information will help me greatly. daniele
I believe everyone should have to learn and study about the horrible and tragic things that went on in the concentration camps. Hopefully, if everyone knows about them it will prevent it from ever happening again. May God bless all of those who survived this tragedy and the families of those who didn't. Thank you for the wonderful knowledge you have given me.
Have you heard of William Patrick Hitler? He's Adolf Hitler's nephew. He joined the U.S. Navy in the 1940s and fought in the Pacific. If you have, plese let me know. Thank you.
I am exceedingly glad that the internet is being used by people who know the value of knowledge dissemination. It's just a shame that so these valuable documents will inevitably be refuted by people who live suffused in prejudice. The problem is, of course, that people adhere to their hatred, not their humanity. But, do not stop screaming into the wind.
Two of my cloest friends have been Jewish. I have read a great deal about this terrible time in our history and I have made it my quest, so to speak, to make as many people possible aware of the details of what happened. My cloest friend In Appleton, WI is a survivor and due to my getting a full page article done about him by the local newspaper thousands of people have requested him to speak. We must contimue to make people aware of this terrible crime so it will never happen in the magnitutude it did then. As we have seen and lived through the news accounts ourselves--In Europe today it still goes on in a limited manner. Thanks for the information here and hopefully more to come.
Es lamentables que sucesos como el Holocausto judío hayan sido provocados por seres humanos, pero más lamentable aun es que estos hechos sigan ocurriendo en nuestra comunidad. En memoria a Anna Frank Anna María García Bogotá - Colombia
A necessary site, we must never forget, to forget makes it easy for it to happen again, and to all the idiots who maintain it did not happen, well wake up and smell the coffee! Finally to the 6 million jews and to the many millions of others murdered by the nazis, may you all rest in peace we can only imagine your suffering and pain and pray that there by the grace of god go i.
THANKS FOR THE INFO. IT HELPED ME ALOT!!!
this is just a great site for learning more and about the holocaust!thank-you!
I as a student feel that the holocaust is something students should reaserch and study more often I have been engaged in a long term report for the last several months and have found that this subject intrigues me throughly. It would be something like a slap in the face for some students my age to realize the horrific things that happened to a variety of people, but majorly jews, during world war 2. i think younger students should take the opportunity to reaserch this subject.

Thank you for this site. I commend to your attention the article that appears in the November issue of the Atlantic Monthly, "Pre-empting the Holocaust."
Thank you for helping me to try and understand this tragedy
this website kicks ass
I am a C of E Priest and served as a young man on SS Ocean Monarch & Runnymede Park on all the major trans-shipments o immigrants except the one to Toulouse and Hamburg. Business Lie in Leather brought me into very close contact with Jewish people, and I employed the husband of a Holocaust Survivor. I have always though that anti-semitism has a more permanent place in British culture than we like to acknowledge. I am studying Religions and have just done a project on assimilation and marrying out - the Holocaust has played a significant role
This was a moving and rather upsetting experience, but this site is vitally important. It should be a recommended reading for anyone and everyone. God bless the survivors and the victims and all those brave enough to confront the truth.

I am a jew by choice, not by birth. I had finished watching Schindler's List, and was devastated by the cruelty, and was deeply identified with the Jew's in the picture, a friend of mine said that I looked like an individual in the film, and I asked who. He said I would look good in the black of the Totenkopf SS. I am still ill to this day when I think of that.
A very informative site. Well written essays on the Holocaust and World War II. All the information found on this site is new to me , we have never taken a detailed look at WWII. We glance at it and learn just the basics.
