Internment Campss In The Holocaust

Some might say that history might be repeating itself with everything that is going on.
There are many things going on in this world with the Syrian refugees that can be compared to what happened in the Holocaust and the Japanese being put in the internment camps. The things that are happening in syria right now and the refugees wanting to leave is similar to what happened with the Jews in Germany. The Holocaust was a very difficult time for the jews. Adolf Hitler was mostly the one to blame for almost everything. He made people believe that the Jews were the cause for their loss in World War l and the debt they were in.
