The book is very short and is a powerful story about a boy's life during the Holocaust. READ it, and the answers to your questions will be obvious. In other words, do your own homework.

i was really convicted of praying for the peace of jerusalem earlier tonight, actually. I had done it once in awhile, but not as much as I should. Thank you for your question, I hope it serves to keep us accountable.

You might want to watch the documentry program 'Amud Ha-Esh' (=Pillar of fire), produced by the Israeli Broadcasting Authority, portraying the history of the people of Israel.\nPillar of Fire relates the drama of the Jewish people's return to Zion and the establishment of the state of Israel. It deals with the history of modern Zionism, from the beginning of the Zionist movement in the 1890s to the creation of the modern day state of Israel in 1948.\n\nThe seven part classical documentary series portrays:\n- The Jewish people's return to The Promised Land.\n- The Arab national awakening.\n- The Jewish-Arab struggle for Palestine.\n- Persecution of Jews in Europe.\n- The War of Independence.\n- The creation of the state of Israel.\n\nIt is an extensive documentary production that feature rare documentary footage collected from more than 30 archives and private collections throughout the world, as well as many eye-witness interviews.\n\nThis documentary series also portrays the Jewish-Arab struggle for Palestine, persecution of Jews in Europe, the war of 1948 and David Ben-Gurion's declaration of independence.

Well, because Jesus isn't God himself.  Though that certainly is a very hard question, one that many have pondered over.  This was awful, why weren't more saved?  And it wasn't just Jews that died in the concentration camps, it was also people who were disabled or coloured, or basically not liked that weren't "aryan".  The Jews are the "chosen ones" and Jesus himself was a Jew.  So the only thing I can say would be there must have been some awfully huge cosmic lesson needed to mankind for God to not intervene sooner.  Or maybe he did, but just in smaller ways.

THE HOLOCAUST   \n\n  The Holocaust was the systematic, bureaucratic, state-sponsored persecution and murder of approximately six million Jews by the Nazi regime and its collaborators. "Holocaust" is a word of Greek origin meaning "sacrifice by fire." The Nazis, who came to power in Germany in January 1933, believed that Germans were "racially superior" and that the Jews, deemed "inferior," were "life unworthy of life." During the era of the Holocaust, the Nazis also targeted other groups because of their perceived "racial inferiority": Roma (Gypsies), the handicapped, and some of the Slavic peoples (Poles, Russians, and others). Other groups were persecuted on political and behavioral grounds, among them Communists, Socialists, Jehovah's Witnesses, and homosexuals. \n\nIn 1933, the Jewish population of Europe stood at over nine million. Most European Jews lived in countries that the Third Reich would occupy or influence during World War II. By 1945, close to two out of every three European Jews had been killed as part of the "Final Solution", the Nazi policy to murder the Jews of Europe. Although Jews were the primary victims of Nazi racism, other victims included tens of thousands of Roma (Gypsies). At least 200,000 mentally or physically disabled people were murdered in the Euthanasia Program. As Nazi tyranny spread across Europe, the Nazis persecuted and murdered millions of other people. More than three million Soviet prisoners of war were murdered or died of starvation, disease, neglect, or maltreatment. The Germans targeted the non-Jewish Polish intelligentsia for killing, and deported millions of Polish and Soviet citizens for forced labor in Germany or in occupied Poland. From the earliest years of the Nazi regime, homosexuals and others deemed to be behaving in a socially unacceptable way were persecuted. Thousands of political dissidents (including Communists, Socialists, and trade unionists) and religious dissidents (such as Jehovah's Witnesses) were also targeted. Many of these individuals died as a result of incarceration and maltreatment. \n   Before beginning the war in 1939, the Nazis established concentration camps to imprison Jews, Roma, other victims of ethnic and racial hatred, and political opponents of Nazism. During the war years, the Nazis and their collaborators created ghettos, transit camps, and forced-labor camps. Following the invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941, Einsatzgruppen (mobile killing units) carried out mass-murder operations against Jews, Roma, and Soviet state and Communist party officials. More than a million Jewish men, women, and children were murdered by these units. Between 1942 and 1944, Nazi Germany deported millions more Jews from the occupied territories to extermination camps, where they murdered them in specially developed killing facilities. \nIn the final months of the war, SS guards forced camp inmates on death marches in an attempt to prevent the Allied liberation of large numbers of prisoners. As Allied forces moved across Europe in a series of offensives on Germany, they began to encounter and liberate concentration camp prisoners, many of whom had survived the death marches. World War II ended in Europe with the unconditional surrender of German armed forces in the west on May 7 and in the east on May 9, 1945. \n  In the aftermath of the Holocaust, many of the survivors found shelter in displaced persons (DP) camps administered by the Allied powers. Between 1948 and 1951, almost 700,000 Jews emigrated to Israel, including more than two-thirds of the Jewish displaced persons in Europe. Others emigrated to the United States and other nations. The last DP camp closed in 1957. The crimes committed during the Holocaust devastated most European Jewish communities.

he was tried for his part in the extermination of millions of people (including 6 million Jews).  his trial was a "big deal" because he escaped to Argentina for years and was finally apprehended about 20 years after the holocaust.

He was in the Treblinka death camp.  I assume he was thrown into a furnace.  Towards the end, the Nazi's didn't even bother gassing children.  The Nazi's were inhumane and  horrible.  David's diary would be worth reading.

You mean the "akeidat Yitzchak" which is Hebrew for the Binding of Isaac when Abraham offered Isaac up on an altar and almost sacrificed him at God's behest.

the little girl in the red is just a symbol of the innocence of the Jews. She was only a little girl, and yet she was being persecuted just like everyone else. I think that seeing this little girl made Schindler realize this.
