# data[].attributes.body
The Holocaust, also known as the Shoah, was a genocide in which Adolf Hitler's Nazi Germany and its collaborators killed about six million Jews. The Holocaust started because of ingrained antisemitism both in Germany and the countries it conquered, compounded by propaganda and the resources of a powerful state, and the encouragement and leadership of political leaders. It also started because the passive and active perpetrators held deep feelings of animosity toward Jews—ingrained by almost 2000 years of antisemitism in Christian teachings‚ which made them receptive to the message of the Nazis, and which made the idea of eliminating Jews, even through extermination, reasonable and indeed desirable

1. Great Britain and France declare war : On 1939 Poland, Great Britain and France declared war on Germany.

2. The Battle of Britain: Summer 1940 - In his attempt to "close" the western front and return his grand plan to its original course, Hitler rapidly occupied France in a Blitzkrieg invasion. He then followed with an unprepared attempt to beat Britain in an air campaign that would enable invading the British island.

3. The Battle of Moscow: In mid 1941, despite still having a western front, Hitler turned back East, to achieve his long desired prime objective of invading and occupying Russia, which was then also preparing its huge military to a preemptive attack against him.

4. Pearl Harbor: December 7, 1941 - The Japanese attack of Pearl Harbor forced the US into the war at the same time when Hitler was stopped near Moscow. Since then, the final outcome of the war was inevitable. It was just a matter of time. As for Japan, in Pearl Harbor it just started a war it could not win. Admiral Yamamoto, their greatest military leader, warned them of that, but the extreme militarist Japanese leadership refused to consider other options.

5. Midway: June 1942 - Just six months after Pearl Harbor, even before the war potential of the US was translated to vast new fleets, the Japanese Navy lost its aircraft carriers force in the battle of Midway, and with it its superiority in the Pacific Ocean and Japan's initiative.

6. Stalingrad and Kursk: In the two following summers of 1942 and 1943, Hitler attacked in Russia again with all the force his army still had, but in both cases his advancing forces were first stopped by fierce defensive fighting of Russian lines of defense, and later heavily beaten in massive counter attacks that caused the Germans huge losses which at that stage were no longer replaceable.
