One of the many questions related to the Holocaust is why the Jews did not defend themselves? Respectively, why did they not show more resistance to the Nazi genocide? For many, it is difficult to understand why, under the circumstances, the Jews did not revolt and show more violent resistance; due to numerical predominance, eg in concentration camps. There are several reasons. On the one hand, it was a deadly crime to help the Jewish population in any way, so it was very difficult to obtain weapons.
