Answer:

Anti-Semitism, sometimes called history’s oldest hatred, is hostility or prejudice against Jewish people. The Nazi Holocaust is history’s most extreme example of anti-Semitism.

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

"The final solution to the Jewish problem" is a term that refers to Nazi Germany's plans to solve the "Jewish problem", through systematic relocations and subsequent annihilation through genocide of the Jews during the Second World War. The Nazis gathered Jewish groups in ghettos, later in concentration camps, to facilitate their exploitation and later to destroy them.

The policy of "final solution to the Jewish question" resulted in the deaths of approximately 6 million Jews in Europe. Through the efforts of the Israeli Museum of the Catastrophe and Heroism of Yad Vashem, 4 million victims were personally identified. As a result of the Nazi genocide, the Yiddish culture fell into decay as a way of life for Eastern European Jewry and their perception of the world around them. At the same time, these events led to a rise in the national consciousness of Jews in different countries. This helped to mobilize the surviving Jews and gave new breath to the Zionist movement, which soon led to the formation of the State of Israel in their historic homeland of Palestine.
