When Elie wrote his memoir, Night, he conveyed his tone of abandonment towards his morals and humanity which reinforced his ideas about the people and the world that he surrounded.Set in Nazi Germany, Night tells the story of how the Holocaust deprived Jews of a happy life, took away everything that meant Jewish culture and life, and imposed slavery on the abused, under the heavy hand of Hitler and ruthless SS soldiers. The Nazis were ruthless towards the Jews. “If anyone goes missing, you will all be shot” (24) said one of the soldiers at Eliezer's cattle car. The SS loved to show off their power to Jews, primarily by killing or injuring, emotionally and physically, without regard for the sensation of the tortured bodies they attacked. The Nazis, created by a cruel man in a cruel time, were able to take what little power their movement possessed and turn that power into a horrible murderer, bent on killing the Jewish people. For the Jewish culture of the Holocaust concentration camps, this was only important for survival. Morals were only secondary, if of any importance when considering the actions in a person's life. When crusts of bread penetrated the seething mass of hungry people, chaos ensued. Elie looked at “these emancipated creatures, ready to kill for a piece of bread” (101). One son even murdered his own father, just for 2 pieces of this remarkable substance. This moment reminds me of the book The Hunger Games, in which children under the age of 18 kill each other for money and a better life. And for no other reason than that! The complete abandonment of morals by the people in the concentration camps is perfectly expressed in one of Elie's Blockäteste: “Here, it's every man for himself” (110) about middle of paper. ......oops had to endure. The very idea of ​​using Jews or any other human being as slaves is simply unethical. The Holocaust was a revolting era, started by a loathsome man, whose sole purpose in life was to take those who were not like him and tear their lives apart, making them abandon their morality and humanity. There is almost nothing as horrible as the Holocaust, but the emotional and physical wear and tear on the Jewish spirit can be compared to the September 11 attacks. These attacks shocked our nation and almost brought us to our knees. The same terror and shock occurred when Hitler came to power, except the murders increased by the hundreds with the concentration camps. No wonder Elijah was so devastated after this experience! What if Hitler had been arrested? Would Germans be tarnished by his name or would they be saved from the eternal contamination of his ideals ??
