Every movement they made got controlled. They lost riches, and properties. Violent acts in opposition to such people got sanctioned. The Jewish people got bullied/pressured into strenuous laboring in concentration camps, and …show more content…
In wartime concerns/issues/problems, worldwide conventions prevail and those under wartime imprisonment receive particular human entitlements/privileges.

Regarded as possessive of inferiority from a racial standpoint, each Jewish person gets inhumane treatment. The Jewish people get placed inside enclosures and/or vehicles designed for animal holding: “We lay on top of the other, [as] matches, [as] herrings. I pushed to a corner…to [avoid getting] crushed…High up I saw a few hooks to chain up…the animals” (Spiegelman
