A man causes the death of a second man. The man who caused the death should die also.

You watch a person being teased, taunted, and bullied. You don’t join in, but you don’t do anything about it either. You are just as guilty as the person who is teasing, taunting, and bullying.

A man causes the death of a second man is just like the germans invading denmark and killing innocent people for no reason at all i feel like the germans should also die or rot in jail for the pain they have caused to innocent people and their families for no reason , i don't think they should get a death sentence either i think they should rot in jail sob they could feel how many families felt when they lost a member or their families just for bringing a life to earth or for dancing to songs. and i feel like they should feel the torture and feel what others went though and the pain and sadness of families

Dear abby,
I need your help with something very urgent and important. I am a 14 years old girl living in
Denmark with my family. My dad works in a hospital because he is a surgeon.
He has to treat people. I overheard him talking to my mom about treating the soldiers and he
sounded very annoyed and sad. I am trying to help so I jumped into the conversation. I gave
him advice to switch the meds and give them the wrong thing.
I feel like i am wrong about the advice i gave to my dad i keep wondering if i might have
gotten him into some sort of trouble i keep thinking about the negative aspects like what if
they found out,what if i am making my dad break his oath towards the hospital and what if i
break up the family when my dad gets taken away.
I feel terrible and I don&#39;t know if what I am doing is right or wrong pls help me and give me
some advice. I would really appreciate it if you could help me.
sincerely,
a desperate teenager from denmark

1. “I remember I was dreaming about a bee. A giant bumblebee. It was buzzing in my ear; it was going to sting me. I opened my eyes and sat up with a start, but the buzzing didn’t stop.” (p. 1)

This was in the first chapter when the Germans were flying. Lisa heard buzzing because of the planes around them she was scared. it was going to sting me. It is so painful  for a bee to sting you just like how war hurts a lot of people and families and she felt like it won’t go away just like how war feels like forever.

2 .“I leap off, dragging my bag, run into the grass and trees beside the stop, and finish throwing up. Then I sink down by my sack. I’m weak, I’m shaking. I think I’m crying, and my mouth tastes terrible. I want to go home. How did I get myself into this? I think back to the streetcar. All those people – they saved me. Maybe they saved my life.” (p. 29)

lisa is scared she is scared she is going to get in big trouble and she is going to get taken away if they see what is in that bag she was so scared she felt so sick and after throwing up she is weak and scared shaking in fear that something might happen but she got help when all the people on the streetcar helped her and pushed her out telling her to run almost like they knew what was in that bag or what was going to happen next. She knew all those people saved her life or she thinks they just saved her.

3. “She whispers to me, ‘That was for Mama and Papa. But it was only the first.’ She’s actually enjoying herself.

A chill runs down my spine. My God, I think, these Germans are dragging us all down to their level. How will we keep ourselves better than them?” (p.46)

sussane is happy she got her revenge they killed her parents beasaus of the music they liked they bombed a resturant right next to their  house and she lost her parents she was was so mad but she got her revenge. lisa on the other hand is scared she knows what they are doing is wrong or she thinks but  what sussanne did was not so bad after all the germans have done  more than what they just did, lisa knows that the they and the germans are now on the same level they just killed and blew up a factory just like the germans and she is asking the question how do we keep ourselves better than them because they have also killed.

4.“ ‘No, Father, it can’t be!’ I cry. I’m not willing to accept what he’s getting at. What does it matter that we are Jewish? I don’t feel any different than anyone else, and I’m not treated differently. Now will I have to be only a Jew? Is being a Jew all that’s important about me? The very name Eichmann makes me feel sick to my stomach.” (p. 57)

Lisa is mad ,devastated and scared at the fact that they have to leave their home where they have lived their whole life but now they have to move because some people don’t like them. They are being treated badly because they are jews is being jew that bad that they despise them so much. the name Eichmann makes lisa feel sick because he  was a German-Austrian SS-Obersturmbannführer and one of the major organizers' of the Holocaust – the so-called "Final Solution to the Jewish Question , his full name was Adolf Eichmann german-Austrian SS officer and one of the major organizers of the Holocaust.

5.“ ‘I’m afraid there will be no service tonight at the synagogue,’ Father continues. ‘Rabbi Melchior told everyone at the early service that he’ll be closing the  synagogue. He’s going on holiday.’

I almost laughed. The rabbi going on holiday on Rosh Hashanah?

Then it hits me.” (p.62)

Lisa is scared there won't be service at the synagogue. The father, Rabbi Melchior, told everyone he is going on a holiday. Lisa thinks it is funny until she realizes that he's probably also running away.

Early Years and World War I

Adolf Hitler (1889–1945) was born on April 20, 1889, in the Upper Austrian border town Braunau am Inn. In 1898, the Hitler family moved to Linz, the capital of Upper Austria. Seeking a career in the visual arts, Hitler fought bitterly with his father, who wanted him to enter the Habsburg civil service.

Hitler lived in Vienna between February 1908 and May 1913, when he left for Munich.  There, he drifted and supported himself by painting watercolors and sketches until World War I gave new direction to his life. He joined the army. During the war, he was wounded twice (in 1916 and 1918) and was awarded several medals.

In October 1918, after he was partially blinded in a mustard gas attack near Ypres in Belgium, Hitler was sent to a military hospital in Pasewalk. News of the November 11, 1918, armistice reached him there as he was recuperating. Released from the hospital in November 1918, Hitler returned to Munich.

In 1919, he joined the Information Office of the Bavarian Military Administration. This office gathered intelligence on civilian political parties and provided anti-Communist “political education” for the troops.  In August 1919, as a course instructor, Hitler made his first virulent antisemitic speeches. A month later, he first expressed an antisemitic, racist ideology on paper, advocating removal of Jews from Germany.

Leader of the Nazi Party

Hitler joined what would become the Nazi Party in October 1919. He helped devise the party political program in 1920. The program was based on racist antisemitism, expansionist nationalism, and anti-immigrant hostility.  By 1921, he was the absolute Führer (Leader) of the Nazi Party. Membership in the Nazi Party swelled in two years to 55,000, supported by more than 4,000 men in the paramilitary SA (Sturmabteilung; Storm Troopers).

Imprisonment

Rejecting political participation in Weimar elections, Hitler and the Nazi Party leadership sought to overthrow the government of Bavaria, a state in the Weimar Republic. The Beer Hall Putsch took place on November 9, 1923.  After the putsch collapsed, a Munich court tried Hitler and other ringleaders on charges of high treason.  Hitler used the trial as a stage to attack the system of parliamentary democracy and promote xenophobic nationalism. Hitler was found guilty, but received a  light sentence and was released after serving just one year in detention. He used his time in prison to begin writing Mein Kampf (My Struggle), his autobiography, published in 1926. In the book, he unveiled an explicitly, race-based Nationalist, social Darwinist, and antisemitic vision of human history. He advocated dictatorship at home, military expansion, and seizure of “living space” (Lebensraum) in the East. This living space was where the Germans intended to cleanse the east of indigenous and “inferior” populations.

Political Strategy

After his release from prison, Hitler reorganized and reunified the Nazi Party. He changed its political strategy to incorporate engagement in electoral politics, programs targeting new and alienated voters, and bridge building to overcome traditional conflicts in German society.

Using language fashioned to reflect the fears and hopes of potential voters, the Nazis campaigned for

Renewing national defense capacity

Restoring national sovereignty

Annihilating Communism

Overturning the Versailles Treaty

Eliminating foreign and Jewish political and cultural influence in Germany and reversing the moral depravity that it allegedly created

Generating economic prosperity and creating jobs

Testing this strategy in the national parliamentary elections of 1928, the Nazis received a disappointing 2.6% percent of the vote.

With the onset of the Great Depression in 1930, Nazi agitation began to have increasing impact in the German population.  When the majority coalition government collapsed in March, the three middle-class parties invoked emergency constitutional provisions to hold extraordinary parliamentary elections, hoping to manufacture a governing majority that would permanently exclude the Social Democrats and the political Left from governing.  When this maneuver failed, German governments in 1930-1932 resorted to ruling by presidential decree rather than parliamentary consent.

Electoral Breakthroughs

The Nazis made their electoral breakthrough in 1930 by combining modern technology, modern political market research, and intimidation through violence for which the leadership could deny responsibility. The party’s youthful energy untainted by past association with democratic governments also helped them break through electoral barriers. They captured nearly a fifth of the popular vote, attracting new, unemployed, and alienated voters.

Hitler was a powerful and spellbinding speaker who attracted a wide following of Germans desperate for change.  The Nazi appeal grew steadily in 1931 and 1932, creating a sense of inevitability that Hitler would come to power and save the country from political paralysis, economic impoverishment, cultural atrophy, and Communism.  After running for President of the Republic in spring 1932, Hitler and the Nazis captured 37.3% of the vote in the July 1932 elections. They became  the largest political party in Germany. Constant electioneering after 1930, accompanied by politically-motivated street violence, swelled the membership of the Nazi Party to 450,000, the SA to more than 400,000, and the SS to more than 50,000 in 1932.

Chancellor of Germany

The Nazi share of the vote declined to 33.7 % in the November 1932 parliamentary elections. The decrease blunted Hitler’s appeal and created a political and financial crisis in the Nazi Party. Former Chancellor (June-November 1932) Franz von Papen rescued Hitler. Von Papen believed that Nazi electoral losses rendered them more susceptible to control by the more experienced but unpopular conservative elites.  Willing to risk a Nazi-German nationalist coalition with Hitler as Chancellor, von Papen reached agreement with Hitler and the German Nationalists in early January 1933. He persuaded President Paul von Hindenburg that Germany was out of other options. Reluctantly, von Hindenburg appointed Hitler Chancellor on January 30, 1933.

Following his appointment as chancellor, Adolf Hitler began laying the foundations of the Nazi state. He seized every opportunity to turn Germany into a one-party dictatorship.

German president Paul von Hindenburg died in August 1934. Hitler had secured the support of the army with the Röhm purge of June 30, 1934. He abolished the presidency and proclaimed himself Führer of the German people (Volk). All military personnel and all civil servants swore a new oath of personal loyalty to Hitler as Führer. Hitler also continued to hold the position of Reich Chancellor (head of government).

World War 2 officially started on September 1, 1939, after Germany invaded Poland, and it continued until 1945 when both Japan and Germany surrendered. 16 million American soldiers served in World War 2, along with the civilian supporters that worked behind the scenes for the war effort.

World War 2 records are comprehensive and contain information about the various military branches, as well as data on the civilian units that helped with the war. These types of World War 2 records include the civilian nurses corps and presidential papers that often documented personal participation in the war effort.

Many of the World War 2 records are organized by military branch and unit instead of by individual, and the best place to begin a World War 2 records search is by starting with the military personnel discharge form. This form details the soldier's rank, dates of service, service number, awards and unit. There are also POW records, as well as World War 2 records, pertaining to African American soldiers and the role of women in the war.

World War 2 Timeline

1938: Germany invaded and took over Austria in March. Part of Czechoslovakia was given to Hitler during the Munich Conference by England and France, who were trying to prevent another world war by appeasing Hitler.

1939: Hitler and his army attacked Poland on September 1 using their signature Blitzkrieg, meaning "lightening war." When Hitler refused to withdraw his troops, England and France declared war.

1940: The Battle of Britain was Germany's major effort to take over Great Britain, and this battle was fought in the air with massive air strikes in Britain's airspace beginning in July. The major bombing ended in October with an English victory.

1944: The Normandy Invasion was a turning point in World War 2, when the Allied Forces decided to invade from the west while continuing to attack Nazi forces from the east. This amphibious invasion began on June 6, better known as D-Day.

World War 2 Newspaper Headlines
Fairbanks, Alaska
The major headline on September 4, 1939 for the Fairbanks Daily News in Alaska was "Second World War Breaks." This World War 2 newspaper headline came after news of the ultimatum issued by Great Britain and France to Hitler after his army invaded Poland on September 1, 1939.

Although Europe greatly wanted to avoid another world war, after Hitler let this ultimatum expire without pulling troops out of Poland, Great Britain and France declared war on Germany. This was followed closely by New Zealand, Egypt and Australia also declaring war on Germany.

Other World War 2 newspaper headlines included "British Take Offensive in China Cities," which described the British defense force already in China attacking Germans at the German Tennis Club in Shanghai, as well as in several other Chinese cities where German citizens resided in international concession areas. Other World War 2 newspaper headlines described France's release of air, land and sea troops rushing to help Poland and also described the sound of heavy artillery already being heard in areas of Luxembourg.

President Roosevelt, in a smaller World War 2 newspaper headline, declared that the US would remain neutral in this war, despite the German bombing of the American Ambassador in Warsaw, Poland. President Roosevelt's decision to enact the neutrality law was also written about as America pledged to remain removed from World War 2, despite the Navy stating its ships already stationed in the Pacific would stay.

Also described in the smaller World War 2 headlines was the torpedo attack already made by the Germans on the British steamer Athenia, which had around 1400 refugee passengers that were mostly Canadian with some Americans. The Athenia was bound from Glasgow to Montreal when it was bombed 300 miles east of the Hebrides Islands off the coast of Scotland.
New Castle, Pennsylvania
World War 2 newspaper articles in the New Castle News published on May 26, 1944, in Pennsylvania, supported the major headline "Allies Open Rome Drive" that was splashed across the front page, along with "All-Out Offensive Against Italian Capital Under Way". These World War 2 newspaper articles detailed the Allied forces movements as they invaded Italy. Hitler and Mussolini united Germany and Italy with the Rome-Berlin Alliance, so invading Italy was a key component in World War 2.

One of the main World War 2 newspaper articles discussed the importance of this first land victory for the Allied troops against the Axis (Germans and Italians) troops in an effort to capture the Italian peninsula. The main Italian fighting front was the Gustav-Hitler line, and this World War 2 newspaper article described the Allied forces gaining important ground there.

Another important World War 2 newspaper article described the advance on occupied Rome as Cisterna and Littoria fell to the Allied troops, which included the U.S. Fifth Army. Germans were reported as retreating from Central Italy and heading towards the north to make a final stand.

A more cheerful World War 2 newspaper article described how liberated Italians welcomed American troops and gave them flowers and other gifts in gratitude.

On the Pacific front, a World War 2 newspaper article talked of General MacArthur's troops advancing on Dutch New Guinea's Maffin Bay in an effort to capture the important airdrome there. This strike was reported to have resulted in large numbers of Japanese casualties as they were defeated by American troops, and the American casualty list was reported as much lighter in comparison, according to this World War 2 newspaper article.
Joplin, Missouri
World War 2 newspaper stories were rampant throughout the war, and the headlines from the Joplin Globe on April 25, 1945 were no exception. World War 2 newspaper coverage on this day in history includes the main headline "Reds Drive Deeper Into Berlin." The sub-headline beneath read "3 Allied Armies Race Across Southern Germany." This is referring to when Soviet and American troops met at the Elbe River in Germany in order to continue on towards Munich. This was an important day, as the combined troops took out Ulm, an important communications hub for Germany.

Berlin was reported as being in flames, as a reporter flew over the city to deliver an eye-witness report. Russian armies united at Berlin to complete its fall as Nazi headquarters. This World War 2 newspaper article also detailed the sight of 20,000 to 30,000 unarmed Germans heading toward Allied lines in one of the largest mass surrenders to date. Hitler was also reported as being in hiding, despite the reports delivered by Hamburg radio that Hitler remained in Berlin. Other rumors were reported that ghost trains were taking high ranking Nazi officials into hiding.

Other World War 2 newspaper coverage described the allied forces destroying Germany's 125-mile defense line in Italy. The American troops crossed the Po River, and with other Allied troops, helped capture the Italian naval base at La Spezia along with Ferrara and Modena. Modena was an essential road junction and industrial city near Bologna, and Ferrara was the German anchor for areas south of the Po River. The fall of these Italian cities and military bases was an important turning point in the war.

As the day goes by the Germans are going crazy they are bringing out more troops and making more arrests. Lisa and Susanna can't even think about having a crush and having fun, Susanna is moody all day and she doesn't even talk much, it was Lisa's 15th birthday, jesper took her out for dinner to Tivoli. Jesper said victor last performance was there. He decided to make fun of the soldier

''has anyone seen my dog? he's about to he high using his hand to show what he meant along, the Germans were so mad but everyone laughed. when Lisa got home Susanne ran into the room and pulled a gun out of her purse and said quietly hide this, she said do u remember the two men we met the other day with Stefan, they are both dead she was shaking and so was I, we were both scared.

Eric's grandparents had asked him to leave because it would not matter if they came anyway, Eric left with Lisa. He was very sober while at the hospital he barely even spoke to anyone. Some day later a doctor told everyone that the German soldiers had gone to every house and everyone had been rounded up. Eric was devastated. He would yell , cry and sit all alone all day and some days they had to give him sedatives because he was acting crazy.

# data[].attributes.body
At the hospital Lisa's  dad works on making paper works because the German soldiers stole the list and they had to make a fake one. Lisa had to go home to gather some food and clothes for Sarah then a phone book. she started calling every single Jewish family she knew and told them the rabbi is going on holiday and maybe they should consider doing the same, then Lisa looked for Jewish names in the phone book so she could also call them and tell them the same thing by the time she finished it was about 3:00, she dressed her sister up and ready for the cold and gave her some rye bread and some cold fish and they were all ready to go she took a laundry bag and looked at her home once more think about everything.

Lisa met her dad at the hospital and he was still busy with paperwork so she helped him out. She had to fill out some forms, choosing different times of admission, for example over the next two weeks her mom and Stefan are new admissions. they have all been put in the psychiatric wing. it's empty and the children in the children's ward. At around 5 Lisa's dad took her and Sarah up to the ward where they would be staying. About 30 other people had arrived, some of them whole families, single people, young, old and most people Lisa knew.

it's dark now Sarah, Lisa and there mom had to stay in on side while her dad, Stefan and Eric on another, many other people have arrived, Lisa saw two of her friends and families, many acquaintances, some crying quietly and some are just very scared, the nurses that worked at that hospital had to give some people sedatives just to keep them quiet.

Lisa and her family had been going through so much and they have stayed together as a family. in Ukraine many families had been separated and can't find each other anymore .

# data[].attributes.body
Lisa and her family have now been in the hospital for 2 days and if no one talks or say's anything they would all become psychiatric patients. And as expected the raids did start Friday night when the Germans thought everyone would be celebrating new years at home. The resistance and most hospital staff are trying to arrange a way to move everyone to Sweden.

It is going to be hard because the harbor is full of German ships and patrol boats, they would have to take then to the coast and if they are lucky they should only have to stay there for half an hour then they would be shipped south by fishing boats since those were the only boats that could be on the water.

Eric also found out that his parent were dead when a doctor told them all the homes have been raided, Eric spent most of his time crying and he wasn't crying he would be crying for his parent and it came to a point where Stefan and 2 others had to hold him down so they could give him sedative now he just sit and never talks to anyone not even Lisa because he is embarrassed.

The Morning after 30 more Jews arrived it looked like they were having a funeral. They were moving towards the chapel in the hospital and about twenty minutes later all the black shrouded mourners were being ushered into the psychiatric  wards. When they were all being ushered in Lisa recognized one of the girls from her class her name was Lissen she was a small, dark girl just about Lisa age.

She was hiding with some friends. They had a lot of them staying at different places but in the same neighborhood. Her brother is an intern in the hospital so he knew they still had room so he arranged something. They were very lucky at the fact that they actually pulled the fake funeral charade without being caught was impressive. Lisa dad heard only a few hundred Jews  out of eight thousand have been captured.

They have all been moved into a truck and they don't know when they would be stopped anytime the van stops. Lisa holds her breath thinking if this would be the last time she would see everyone she loves. They got there safely, separated and spread out around the bushes, Lisa was looking for Stefan until she heard a loud screeching noise. A man split his wife and kids and himself but he did not die fully. The boats that were meant to pick them up decided to raise the money even though they had already paid. They all have to stay in a safe house until someone can collect a reasonable amount of money.

# data[].attributes.body
It's a cold dark night so quiet Stefan says a lot of people arranged their own passages to Sweden, but it was not easy and some  of them got caught. Stefan asked Lisa how well she could use a gun because he has been told that more people would be using the safe house as a drop off point, some that night and the next so Stefan decided to stay and volunteer, Lisa knows he is trying to ask her to stay.

Lisa has decided to stay and now the hardest thing is to tell her parents and let them go, especially her baby sister because she doesn't know when next she would see them or even if she would, all she wants is for everyone to be safe.

This book was one of the best and the most emotional books I have ever read, I really enjoyed this book especially because it was based on war. War has always been an interest to me especially ww2, when a woman spoke about how she survived a concentration camp but lost everyone except her sister, her sister died shortly after. She spoke about the gas chambers and how mothers, fathers, twins, and siblings were separated. Her story was so sad it made everyone cry. I have liked anything that was related to war after her story. This book was a very good book with great information and I really enjoyed it. I hope we will be able to learn more about war in the future.
