What did the non Jewish German people think about the Holocaust during the Holocaust?

Actually, some things were and were not known about the Holocaust. The basic thing known was all Jews, some European P.O.W.s, and anyone that defies the Gestapo that they catch, the Nazi government first sends to ghettos. Ghettos were overcrowded, slums, very few business if any and a place no one wants to live in! They were then commonly sent by train to a bit more secret of a camp, the concentration camp. But the true horrors of starvation, disease, and the treatment of prisoners was far unknown until the lucky few escape or were let go...if you watch the movie "Schindler's List", you will get a good idea of the Holocaust and how well it was known. ___ The official line at the time was that the German Jews were being "resettled in Eastern Europe". Many ordinary Germans had some vague idea of what was going on and didn't want to know more. They were in good company: the Allies didn't really want to know, either.


What did the yellow star during the holocaust mean?

They were forced to do it under Nazi law and there were penalties for not doing so. The point was to make them easily identifiable as members the hated minority. The yellow Star od David, inscribed with the word "Jude," has become a symbol of Nazi persecution, possibly even the "icon #1" of the Holocaust. It abounds upon Holocaust literature and materials - book covers, movie posters and the like. But the Jewish badge was not instituted in 1933 when Hitler came to power. It was not instituted in 1935 when the Nuremberg Laws stripped Jews of their citizenship. It was still not implemented by Kristallnacht in 1938. The public labeling of the Jews by use of the Jewish badge did not begin until after the start of the Second World War. And even then, it began as local laws rather than as a unified Nazi policy.
