There are lots of Holocaust memorials in the world.
The Holocaust in the sense of systematic genocide began in 1941, when the war in Europe had already been under way for two years. Other groups were also targeted.The Holocaust, or systematic destruction of peoples which the Nazis considered undesirable, occurred in all areas the Germans captured during World War 2. It was a kind of subplot within the war.If you are trying to establish a cause/effect relationship between WW2 and the Holocaust, I think you will have trouble doing so. The Holocaust did not lead to World War 2, and it was not one of the causes of the war. Similarly, World War 2 did not cause the Holocaust.The German invasion of Poland and later of the Soviet Union did, of course, lead to a vast increase in the numbers of Jews under German rule and added to the Nazis' self-inflicted 'Jewish problem'. One may, of course, also take the view that the Nazis exploited the wartime inaccessibility of Eastern Europe to the outside world when carrying out the Holocaust, but that is not a cause-effect link.
Yes, but being Jewish in the Holocaust was not judged by one's self, it was determined by the Nazis.
