Answer:

Well the holocaust started to ramp up in 1943, the war was going worse and worse for Germany and therefore needed more weapons of war. Therefore, they got free labor by enslaving occupied countries. More and more people would die because of this and the situation of food got worse every year for Germany and thus didn't feed the enslaved.

Step-by-step explanation:

Some SS-officers of the waffen SS justified the killing of Jews and slaved people because of the bombings of Germany. the Holocaust basically started from 1943 to 1945. When the war turned against them they started a total war which meant extermination.

This is the Final solution speech by Himmler, this is the speech that started the holocaust and its translated in English.

Many people say there were just racist and wanted to kill the jews, i dont agree with point. I believe over time the situation got worse and thus used jews since the nazis hated jews to get free labor out of them and not give them food. The blame was put on jews and that why they killed them unfairly. There were some jews with blond hair and blue eyes so why would germans kill them if they look german. So the idea that they only killed the jews because of race is just wrong. Its that they hated the jewish relgion. Rest in peace to all who suffered greatly under the oppression of the Nazis.

Answer: The Nazi’s committed the Holocaust because they were racist, there hundreds of thousands of starving and sick prisoners locked in with thousands of dead bodies. They encountered evidence of gas chambers and high-volume crematoriums, as well as thousands of mass graves, documentation of awful medical experimentation, and much more. The Nazis killed more than 10 million people in this manner, including 6 million Jews.
