When the nazi put the jews in the gas chamber,they put about 50~65 peoples in the gas chamber then close it.But the gas was like invisible and the stuff that they spray out was something kind of like water with gas, so when every one breath they the began to shout because the poisen gas makes you feel like you got a bad disease so everybody screams at the same time.
So when they are screaming for help they squish together, and when nazi open the door it dosen't just got out it jus stay their like a statue.
Imagine:You are put into the gas chamber with other jews squishing together, then the nazi start to put the water down so you think you are showering, and a second later you hear yourself shouting for help and other are screaming too.Then you saaw yourself couldn't stand anymore, saw others cuoldn't stand anymore too, some just dies.After a while you really couldn't stand anymore, then fell down died.
Just think about it hurt alot, but I want you just think about it...

In 1938, many Jewish Germans and Austrians decided that, for their safety, they needed to leave. Nazi Germany had annexed Austria in March during the Anschluss; during Kristallnacht on November 9 – 10, Nazi Party officials encouraged mobs to burn and loot Jewish businesses, synagogues, and homes and arrested approximately 30,000 Jewish men. At that time, most nations restricted the numbers of immigrants allowed in a given year, and securing visas for places like the United States could take up to ten years. Since escape was the priority, families quickly began new lives in places like Bolivia or South Africa where immigration quotas had not yet been filled.

Shanghai, China was one of the few places in the world that did not require a visa for immigration at that time. The city became a refuge for more than 17,000 German and Austrian Jewish refugees who had nowhere else to go. Many arrived with little or no money because the Nazis had restricted the amount of money that people could take out of the country.

Shanghai, China was one of the few places in the world that did not require a visa for immigration at that time. The city became a refuge for more than 17,000 German and Austrian Jewish refugees who had nowhere else to go. Many arrived with little or no money because the Nazis had restricted the amount of money that people could take out of the country. New arrivals often had to rely on assistance from the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC) and local Iraqi and Russian Jewish families who had been in Shanghai for many years.

The living conditions in Shanghai were very different from what the refugees were accustomed to. Most of them came from a middle-class background, and many were suddenly living in public housing and relying on soup kitchens for meals. The refugees adapted to the new situation, many of them opening businesses to support themselves.

The refugees felt the impact of the war in Shanghai. Japan had occupied the city since 1937, and after the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, the Japanese moved the refugees to a settlement area in the Hongkew district, known to some as the "Shanghai ghetto." Food and other supplies, as well as international funding, were restricted during the war. After the war ended, the refugees left Shanghai, many immigrating to the United States.

From 1933 to 1941, Shanghai accepted almost 30,000 European Jews who escaped from Nazi Persecution and the Holocaust. Excluding those who left Shanghai for other countries, by the time of the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor in December 1941, the city was sheltering 20,000 - 25,000 Jewish refugees. According to the Simon Wiesenthal Center on Holocaust Studies, Shanghai took in more Jewish refugees than Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and India combined (1). Like “Schindler”, “Wallenberg” and “Sugihara”, the name “Shanghai” has now become synonymous with “rescue” and “haven” in the annals of the Holocaust.

Before Nazi policy turned actively genocidal in the late 1930s, exile was seen as a perfectly acceptable solution to the “Jewish problem” and German and Austrian Jews, stripped of their citizenship rights, property, and employment, were encouraged to emigrate to any country that would have them. Unfortunately, there were few options for these would-be emigrants:  At the Évian Conference in 1938, the great powers collectively decided to shut their borders to all but a small selection of Jewish refugees.

Aside from the Dominican Republic, Shanghai was the only place that remained open to these refugees, and 20,000 or so European Jews found their way to the city in the late 1930s. Shanghai at the time was a political anomaly: Control was split between the beleaguered Republic of China, an increasingly aggressive Imperial Japan, and France, Britain, and the United States, countries that operated self-governing “concessions” exempt from Chinese law or influence.

When the Second World War broke out in 1939, more European Jews had taken refuge in Shanghai than in any other city in the world.

SHANGHAI-When Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited Shanghai in May 2013 and hailed the city's role as a "haven" for Jewish people fleeing Nazi-occupied Europe in the 1930s and 40s, his comments highlighted a part of the city's history that many contemporary residents don't know. Today, few would guess that this quintessentially Chinese city once played host to a bustling community of over 20,000 Jews.

While a Jewish community has existed in Shanghai since the late 19th century, the first large wave of immigrants came in the 1920s and 30s, as thousands of Russian Jews fled the Bolshevik Revolution for the more business-friendly foreign concessions in Shanghai. A decade later, the mainly Russian and Sephardic Jewish community was supplemented by tens of thousands of Ashkenazi Jews from Europe, who fled during the early stages of Nazi rule in Germany.

When the American colonies revolted in 1776, England lost its biggest prison - convicts were routinely shipped to the thirteen colonies to make room in the perpetually crowded British jails. As a result, England annexed the island of Australia in 1788 as a new prison colony. While Australia had been known to Europeans since its discovery in the sixteenth century, the English were the first to settle there on a permanent basis, aside from the native Aboriginal population.

Among the 1,500 prisoners who initially arrived in Australia where 16 Jews; by 1817, more had arrived, and enough had been freed to form an organized minyan and burial society. As their numbers swelled, primarily due to immigration from England and Germany, kehillahs (organized communities) sprang up in the cities of Sydney (1831) and Melbourne (1841), which were to become the two centers of Jewish life. The Sydney kehilla was founded by Joseph Barrow Montefiore, a cousin of Sir Moses Montefiore.

The Sydney congregation worshiped in houses and shops until 1844, when the growing community built the first synagogue in Australia. It was soon followed by synagogues in Hobart (1845), Launceston (1846), Melbourne (1847), and Adelaide (1850).

The gold rush of the 1850s attracted more Jewish immigrants, so that foreign-born Jews soon outnumbered the native-born. Many of the immigrants initially settled in rural locations, and not in the main, urban communities of Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, and Adelaide. Fear of assimilation, however, caused most Australian Jews to consolidate in cities by the end of the century. Consequently, the rapidly growing Sydney community soon needed larger facilities, and in 1878 built the Great Synagogue, which was widely considered the most impressive place of worship in Australia.

Australia remains to this day the only country in the world, other than Israel, whose founding members included Jews. As a result, Jews were treated as equal citizens from the outset. In contrast to contemporary Europe, incidents of anti-Semitism were very rare in Australia. Jews were free to participate in economic and cultural life, and played an important role in their development. The first Australian theater, for example, was built by a Jew, and an early Jewish composer, Isaac Nathan, has been described as the "father of Australian music."

Jews also served as elected officials. In the nineteenth century, prominent Jews included the mayor of Melbourne, premier of the state of South Australia, speaker of the House of Representatives, and speaker of Parliament. Interestingly, these political leaders were frequently the heads of their respective kehillas as well; unlike the politically autonomous kehillas of Europe, Australia's communities were cultural and religious institutions only.

The seamless integration of Jews into Australia allowed them to flourish in all spheres but religion. The Jews' incorporation into society led to a rise in intermarriage, a drop in synagogue attendance, and a lack of affiliation with Judaism in general. Nonetheless, there were still those who maintained their observance. The communities remained affiliated with the British Chief Rabbinate, and founded numerous Jewish schools and synagogues.

In addition to the Ashkenazim who comprised the vast majority of Australian Jewry, a small Sephardic community thrived during the mid-to-late nineteenth century. For some twenty years there was a Sephardic congregation, and such prominent families as the Montefiores occupied important communal positions. Gradually, however, the Sephardic population decreased, and the congregation was disbanded by 1873.

At the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth, as Australia was unifying its colonies into one independent nation, a wave of immigration from Europe bolstered the Jewish community both in terms of numbers and observance. Refugees from the pogroms in Russia and Poland came in the 1890s, and brought an infusion of tradition to the assimilated communities. Following World War I, another stream of Jews arrived in the country, and when Hitler came to power in Germany in 1933, that stream became a flood. The Australian government was initially hesitant about opening its gates to so many immigrants, but in 1938 decided to allot 15,000 visas for "victims of oppression." Some 7,000 Jews took advantage of the visas before the outbreak of war in 1939.

The influx of immigrants led to a split among the urban Jewish centers. Most of the Jews who lived in Sydney were from Western and Central Europe. These Jews tended to be more secular than their Eastern European counterparts, who, by and large, settled in Melbourne. As a result, Sydney became known for its secular Jewish population, and Melbourne for its highly Orthodox community. At the same time, Perth also became primarily Orthodox as thousands of observant South Africans arrived.

But if the German and Hungarian immigrants were secular in comparison to the Russians and the Poles, they were still far more religious than the Australians. Thus, even those Australians who remained non-Orthodox gradually became more involved in communal affairs. The previously synagogue-oriented kehillas began to focus their energies more on education, Zionism, and combating anti-Semitism, allowing even the irreligious to become involved. By the end of World War II, the community was very united in its opposition to assimilation, and was gradually becoming more observant of ritual and doctrine.

In the aftermath of the war, even more European Jews arrived in Australia, mostly from displaced persons camps. The trend toward observance continued to grow, especially once the Lubavitch movement gained a foothold, and day-school attendance rose steadily. The growth of the thriving community was briefly interrupted in the 1970s, when a rise in intermarriage caused an unprecedented decrease in the total Jewish population. By the early 1980s, however, a census indicated that the Jewish population was once again growing, and that intermarriage had once again dropped to one of the lowest levels in the diaspora. Immigration did not let up, and, in 1989, the flow of primarily South African immigrant was augmented by refugees from the newly disbanded Soviet Union.

The long dormant Sephardic community was also revitalized in the post-war period. Since the original community's demise in the late 1800s, Sephardim had a difficult time gaining entry to Australia due to the racist White Australia Policy instituted by the government. In 1956, following the Suez crisis in Egypt, the government began to allowed select Egyptian Jews to enter the country. In ensuing years, pressure from the Jewish communities caused the government to drop its anti-Sephardic stance. By 1969, when the Iraqi government began to target the Jews for persecution, Australia allowed any refugee who could come to Australia to do so.

Today, between 115,000 and 120,000 Jews live in Australia, out of a total population of over 20 million. The Jewish community of Australia is the largest Jewish community in the East Asian Pacific Region. 80 percent of Australian Jews live in Melbourne (50,000) and Sydney (45,000), but there are also significant communities in Perth, Brisbane, the Gold Coast and Adelaide. Melbourne is still considered the more religious of the two cities, with about 80 percent of its Jews declaring themselves traditional. Nonetheless, Sydney boasts numerous synagogues and Jewish organizations as well, and a very high rate of . The Executive Council of Australian Jewry (ECAJ) is the elected representative organization of the Jewish community. Overall, there are 81 synagogues and 18 day schools in Australia, and several Jewish newspapers and periodicals. More than 50 percent of Jewish students are enroled in Jewish schools, which is the highest rate anywhere in the world with the exception of Israel. Australia also has a low rate of intermarriage compared to other Diaspora countries. There have been two Jewish Australian governor-generals and several Jewish Australians have served in senior leadership positions in the country's military.

An agreement was announced between the governments of Israel and Australia on October 22, 2014 to provide for more economic and cultural cooperation between the two countries. The agreement is a "Holiday & Visa" agreement, which will make it easier for young Israelis to work and vacation in Australia, and vice-versa. Under the agreement 500 work-travel visas will be awarded each year to Israelis and Australians between the ages of 18 and 30, and the individuals will be able to stay in the other country for a full year. In addition to Australia, Israel also has similar arrangements with Germany, New Zealand, South Korea, and others.

Australia and the United States sided with Israel's safety and security in December 2014 when they were the only two countries on the UN Security Council to vote against a Palestinian statehood resolution that would have required Israel to relinquish it's terriroty captured after the 1967 war. The Palestinian statehood measure was brought before the Security Council by Jordan on behalf of the Palestinians, and needed nine yes votes out of the fifteen members of the Security Council in order to pass. The United States and Australia voted against the measure, while Nigeria, Britain, Lithuania, the Republic of South Korea and Rwanda abstained from voting. The measure did not meet the required number of votes, garnering eight "yes's" instead of the nine required to pass. The eight countries that voted in favor of the resolution were China, France, Russia, Argentina, Chad, Chile, Jordan, and Luxemborg. This vote marked the first time that Australia had voted "no" on a proposed resolution during their two year term on the Security Council.

Avi Hasson, chief scientist of the Israel Ministry of Economy, made his first official visit to Australia in late November 2015. Hasson met with Australian business leaders and government officials, seeking to increase economic, scientific, and technological cooperation between the two countries. A research & development agreement was signed between Hasson and the Commonwealth Bank of Australia during the visit.

Australia's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Julie Bishop, received the Hebrew University's Torch of Learning award and delivered a speech titled "The changing face of the political landscape in Israel, the Middle East and in Australia," in Sydney, Australia, on November 22, 2015. To read this speech, please click here.

Israeli President Reuven Rivlin planned a last-minute trip to visit both Australia and Russia in February 2016, prompting the Australian government to cancel official diplomatic trips, and rearrange the Prime Minister's schedule to accomodate a meeting with Rivlin. Just days after planning the trip however, Rivlin's office announced that he would only be visiting Russia, prompting confusion from Australian officials. An official Australian government source told media that they were "stunned" to get the call from Jerusalem cancelling Rivlin's trip. Australian officials were "publicly humiliated," by this snub, pointing out that Israel had requested and initiated the visit.

French officials welcomed representatives from 70 countries including Australia to a conference in Paris on January 14, 2016, to "reaffirm their support for a just, lasting and comprehensive resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict." The conference, which was opposed by both the Israelis and Palestinians, ended with the adoption of a Joint Declaration, which can be found here. Following the conference, Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop clarified her country's stance on the Declaration, stating that "while the Australian government was represented at the Paris conference this does not mean we agree with every element of the final statement." Bishop went on to air the Australian government's opposition to "one-sided resolutions targetting Israel," and recommended a "resumption of direct negotiations between the Israelis and the Palestinians for a two-state solution as soon as possible."

Benjamin Netanyahu became the first sitting Israeli Prime Minister to visit Australia on February 22, 2017. Australian PM Malcolm Turnbull welcomed Netanyahu at a press conference in Sydney, where the Israeli PM lauded Turnbull's opposition to a recent anti-Israel UN Security Council Resolution.

Australian Energy and Environment Minister Josh Frydenberg signed a Declaration of Intent with his Israeli counterpart Ze'ev Elkin on April 25, 2016, which calls for cooperation on multiple environmental issues. The representatives signed the declaration during a 3-day visit by Frydenbeg to Israel, promising to work together on sewage treatment, water and air quality, greenhouse gas emissions, climate change, biodiversity, clean energy technology, and coastal preservation. This declaration also provides for new lines of communication to be opened between the Australian and Israeli environmental authorities, to further encourage collaboration.

Upon returning to Australia after being posted in Israel for 4 years, former Australian Ambassador to Israel David Sharma observed in August 2017 that there is a degree of stability in the status quo, and stated that the relationship between the Israeli and the Palestinian people might be as good as it can be for now. Sharma offered his professional opinion that in order for a peace agreement to be reached between the Israelis and Palestinians, a new generation of Palestinians must come forward and rebuke the violence and rejectionism that the previous generation has embraced.

Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull travelled to Israel in late October 2017 on an official visit, engaging in bilateral talks and press conferences with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and his cabinet. Israel and Australia have a vital interest in working more closely and intensely together to keep our people safe from terrorism, Turnbull said, after signing a Memorandum of Understanding on mutual defense.

Australia maintains friendly relations with the State of Israel, and was one of the strongest proponents of partition. Cultural and economic ties exist between the two countries, and Australia has generally refrained from joining in the numerous resolutions condemning Israel in the U.N. Public opinion in Australia, however, is very sympathetic to the Palestinians, and the government has recently sided with them over Israel in the U.N. On the whole, however, Australia remains a friend of Israel.

Today's Jewish community is concentrated in the St. Kilda district, home of the Melbourne Hebrew Congregation, the oldest and largest synagogue in the city. The original kehilla that was formed in 1841 moved into this large, stately building in 1930, and the dome-topped, Victorian structure has been in use ever since. Other synagogues in Melbourne include Temple Beth Israel, a Liberal synagogue that seats more than 2,000 people; the St. Kilda Hebrew Congregation, which is more in the old-world style; and the Kew synagogue, the newest and most modern looking temple.

The Jewish museum of Australia displays Judaica, ritual objects, Holocaust material, and paintings and sculptures by Jewish authors. The nearby Kadimah Cultural Center shows Jewish and Yiddish drama, and has a large library of Judaica. There are also kosher restaurants and grocery stores throughout the St. Kilda area.

The most important Jewish sight in Sydney is the Great Synagogue. Built in 1878, the imposing building is one of the most spectacular synagogues standing today. Its four-story pointed towers, arches, and stained glass clerestory are prime examples of Victorian architecture. The building also houses a Jewish museum and library.

While the Great Synagogue is located in the center of the city, most of Sydney's Jews live in the Bondi and North Shore suburbs. Bondi features the Hakoah Club, a Casino with a kosher dining room that is reminiscent of Atlantic City. The area, which overlooks the ocean from a towering cliff, also features kosher restaurants, a Lubavitch yeshiva, and several synagogues.

The North Shore Synagogue, established in 1947 by German immigrants Reverend William and Rosalie Katz, is a modern Orthodox community situated in the Lindfield area of Sydney. Known as the "Garden Synagogue" for its beautiful surroundings, the synagogue is within a garden of tall Australian trees. North Shore Synagogue holds regular services, as well as services for Shabbat and festivals, has a Hebrew School and a B'nai Mitzvah program, and has over 850 famillies in its congregation. Next door is the local Jewish day school's junior school of Masada and the senior school is a few minutes up the road in another Jewish suburb on the north shore, St. Ives.

The recently built Museum of Australian Jewish History and the Holocaust is located in Darlinghurst. It includes exhibits on the convicts who founded Sydney's Jewish community, and a recreation of George Street in central Sydney where a numbr of Jewish businesses were located in the mid-1800s.

Its foundation stone laid on August 9, 1843, the Hobart Synagogue in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia is the oldest synagogue in Australia. It was designed by James Alexander Thomson, a Scotsman originally sent to Australia in 1825 for attempted jewel robbery, in the Egyptian Revival Style. The Egyptian style represented antiquity and the synagogue's design was meant to indicate Judaism's ancient roots.

The synagogue's entrance is decorated with two carved pillars supporting an architrave and cornice, upon which appears the Hebrew inscription from the Book of Exodus: "Wherever my name is mentioned there will I come and bless you." The synagogue's Ark is enclosed by a light and elegant bronzed railing and is approached by circular steps. On either side of the doors of the Ark, which are richly carved and gilded, are placed two elaborately carved pillars, supporting an entablature and cornice of cedar, which is also gilded.

The Hobart Synagogue Ark contains multiple Torah scrolls thought to be as old as the synagogue. One of these scrolls was donated by Lady Rachel Ezra of Calcutta, India, though it is probably of Syrian origin, in 1951 and is kept in an ornamental silver casing in the Sephardi style. On display is a Memorial Sefer Torah from Czechoslovakia that is one of the 1,564 scrolls seized from desecrated synagogues by the Nazis.

The synagogue is currently shared by an Orthodox and a Progressive group and, since 1956, there has not been permanent rabbi in residence so the congregation depends on members who have received traditional Jewish instruction for leadership. The Hobart Synagogue is the oldest synagogue in the southern hemisphere still in regular use.

Push Factor: The outbreak of World War Two (1939 - 1945) led to terrible conditions for Jews in Europe. The Nazis were killing  millions of Jews.

Pull Factor: Safety.

Jews fleeing the Nazis had difficulty finding countries that would take them in.

Between the Nazi rise to power in 1933 and Nazi Germany’s surrender in 1945, more than 340,000 Jews emigrated from Germany and Austria. Tragically, nearly 100,000 of them found refuge in countries subsequently conquered by Germany. German authorities would deport and kill the vast majority of them.

Around the World

After Germany annexed Austria in March 1938 and particularly after the Kristallnacht pogroms of November 9–10, 1938, nations in western Europe and the Americas feared an influx of refugees. About 85,000 Jewish refugees (out of 120,000 Jewish emigrants) reached the United States between March 1938 and September 1939, but this level of immigration was far below the number seeking refuge.

Over 60,000 German Jews immigrated to Palestine during the 1930s, most under the terms of the Haavara (Transfer) Agreement.

Great Britain itself limited its own intake of immigrants in 1938–1939, though the British government did permit the entry of some 10,000 Jewish children in a special Kindertransport (Children’s Transport) program. At the Bermuda Conference in April 1943, the Allies offered no concrete proposals for rescue.

Switzerland took in approximately 30,000 Jews, but turned back about the same number at the border. About 100,000 Jews reached the Iberian Peninsula. Spain took in a limited number of refugees and then speedily sent them on to the Portuguese port of Lisbon. From there, thousands managed to sail to the United States in 1940–1941, although thousands more were unable to obtain US entry visas.

Between 1933 and 1936, thousand of people, mostly political prisoners, were imprisoned in concentrations camps, while several thousand German Roma were confined in special municipal camps. The first systematic round-up of German and Austrian Jews occurred after Kristallnacht, when approximately 30,000 Jewish men were deported to Dachau and other concentration camps, and several hundred Jewish women were sent to local jails. The wave of arrests in 1938 also included several thousand German and Austrian Roma.

Between 1933 and 1939, about half of the German-Jewish population and more than two-thirds of Austrian Jews (1938-1939) fled Nazi persecution. They emigrated mainly to the United States, Palestine, elsewhere in Europe (where many would be later trapped by Nazi conquests during the war), Latin America, and Japanese-occupied Shanghai (which required no visas for entry). Jews who remained under Nazi rule were either unwilling to uproot themselves or unable to obtain visas, sponsors in host countries, or funds for emigration. Most foreign countries, including the United States, Canada, Britain, and France, were unwilling to admit very large numbers of refugees.

From 1937 to 1941, about 1,200 European Jews found refuge from the Holocaust in the Philippines. Their migration was part of an effort by the Philippines president, Manuel Quezon, the Jewish-American Frieder family, and an American official, Paul McNutt. Several of the Jewish refugees pose with Mr. and Mrs. Alex Frieder in this 1940 picture in the Philippines.

Jewish people migrated throughout the world to escape from nazis.
Most of them died in concentration camps. They thought they were safe but died because of gas chambers and starvation.

Some resisted and found a new home in different countries.They were not allowed to live in that country because they did not have visas
