Best Answer

Adolph Hitler and Nazi Germany.

AnswerNo one person was wholly responsible for the Holocaust, but obviously it was mostly the work of Hitler and Himmler. AnswerAdolph Hitler convinced German citizens that all of their financial problems were the fault of the Jews. When he became Der Fuhrer, he had concentration camps built, each with an effective method of killing large numbers of people at wholesale prices.

After WWII, many people were very upset with the United States for not getting into the war sooner so that we could have stopped the murder of so many people. How soon we forget. Many today think that we should not have stepped in to stop Sadam from doing the same thing.

As a side note, Sadam considered Hitler to be his example and did much the same thing to those in HIS country that he thought were a problem.

AnswerHitler hated Jews, Gypsies, and Homosexuals. On the orders of Hitler, Jews, Gypsies and Homosexuals were rounded up and sent to the gas chambers by the millions. That was the Holocaust.

Before the Nazis invaded Poland in 1939 at 4:45 a.m., the Republic of China and the Empire of Japan are involved in the early stages of the third year of armed conflict between them during the Second Sino-Japanese War which starts in October 1938 and ends in December 1941. Both, the German and the Japanese, had camps of execution and camp for human experiments and both started WW2.

Who is the commander of the Holocaust?

the Holocaust is a concept created after the events, as such it has no leader. The Holocaust was a set of actions perpetrated under the Nazi government which was led by Hitler. The Holocaust was orchestrated by Himmler and planned by Heydrich and actualised by the adminstration of Eichmann. However the order for it was signed by Goering. Pick which ever of those names you care to and there is an argument for any of them to be the 'commander of the Holocaust'.
