Did all jews in Germany during World War two wear stars on their clothes?

Yes, the government required them to sew yellow stars of David onto their clothes.  Often these stars had the word Juden, which is German for Jew, written on them.  However, not everyone wore them.  Those Jews passing as Aryans or using fake papers or hiding did not.  Also, Jews involved in the black market did not wear them while they were buying or selling.  If you were in a concentration camp, you usually didn't wear one simply because the clothes you had brought with you were taken and you were forced to wear the uniforms provided for you.

No, but his nephew William Patrick Hitler did. He moved here to escape his uncle and joined the US Navy in WW2.

Yes, of course there were teenage spies.  In the 1930s and 1940s teenagers were considered pretty close to being adult and often did adult work and had adult responsibiities.  \n\nMany young people lied about their age and joined the armed forces when they were much younger thatn 18.  The youngest I know of was only 14 when he went overseas to fight, for example.\n\nIn Europe the war was in everyone's backyard, so everyone had to do their part to survive.\n\nRead some books about the holocaust.  The Diary of Ann Frank is a good one to start with if you have not already read it.  It may be difficult for you to find information about specific teenage spies, but remember that most of the people joining the armed forces at the time would have been very young.  In GErmany Hitler YOuth was a very organized military unit and the youth were school aged - if you were grown up you were in the army for sure.\n\nThere may be some WWII veterans who live in your area.  See if you can find some.  They may be able to tell you more.\n\nI hope this is of some help to you.

They've banned major religious symbols in general, I believe, in places such as public schools and government buildings. So a Jewish man can't wear a kippah, Christians can't wear giant crosses, etc. And I think it's to help prevent discrimination in the work place, but I disagree.

I don't know what exactly they wear but I thought this might help you in your report. Iraq was not even a country until after World War I. It was part of the Ottaman Empire and then was taken over by the League of Nations after World War I. I think they finally got their freedom in 1932.

there were many jews all over the world.\n\nhowever, ashkanazik jews (most jews in america) are from eastern europe (russia, poland, ukraine). many jews in america trace their roots before the 1900s to eastern europe. \n\nmany jews lived in little villages known as shtetls (yiddish). many jews came to american because the russian tzar kicked them out, they feared something bad was going to happen, or, in some cases, the holocaust. \n\n\nthere also were jews all over the world. (just most of them were in eastern europe)\n\n\n\nhope this helps

I hope no-one takes offence to your question. It is a valid one and you clearly state this as a generalisation and obviously understand that there is a huge variation in jewish appearance, but yes, there is some characturistics that are considered 'jewish'.\n\nI think it is as someone has already said, there is a geographical orrigination and historically jews have not married out of religion, although this is of course a generalisation in its self. So the gene pool has largely remained intact. Obviousy the genes for those characturistics have been carried through the generations and not been widely circulated among other religious backgrounds. Although again I stress those characturistics are not exclusively jewish and intermarriage has scattered them about into other cultures too.\n\nPerhaps even, many of those characturistic genes are recessive, and therefore generally appear in the more pure jewish families than the ones of more mixed race. \n\nBut I do dissagree with about the 'christian' look. I'm sure out of a line up of jews, christians, muslims, hindus, buddists and many other religions, that someone could pick out a christian. Generally speaking of course. I'm sure we could also find many traditianaly jewish or traditionally muslim looking people and actually find that thay are infact christian or buddist.

I learned that the swastika was around long before Hitler and WWII. To me, it is but another artistic rendition of the Christian cross. But I beleive that because Hitler used that symbol for his own evil intentions, and because so many people still associate the swastica with Nazism, it's considered offensive content.

First the nazis said that all Jews look alike, and that the way they look was obvious to anyone who was not a Jew. Then they made the Jews wear the Star of David in order to distinguish them from non-Jews!

the Nazis:\n"November 28 1938: Police decree pertaining to the appearance of Jews in public issued: Restrictions in the freedom of movement and travel, etc. "

You know, its socially acceptable to want to by Uniforms of Communist Russia,  even the East German uniforms,  but world war 2 uniforms,  stuff like that gets you labeled a n*zi.\n\nMy advice, go to your klan meeting, I'm sure one of the old timers will have one there.

My great grandfather escaped from Auswitz nazi death camps and I lived with this history in my own family. I am no genious or nothing like that but I thought I'd take a stab at it since its part of my own families history.\n\nEconomic _- well, it was WWII! It got the united States out of the depression because we made bullets and guns and war stuff that the world bought!\nIt destrpyed all of Europe and so Europe was in an economic crisis and suddenly the US was quite prosperous and Europe was hurting.\n\nJapans at that time was in total economic ruin especially after Heroshima and Naggasaki.\nJapanieze products were the joke of the entire industry untill Dr. Edwards Demming came on the scene and single handedly resurrected the entire japanieze economy.\n\nSocial, well, at that time everyone for a while totally sympothized with the Jews across the board except for the British and the Arab countries.\nSo on a social scale Jews were more accepted than before by Allied countries.\n\nPoliticle- this was the time when David bengurian proclaimed the national rebirth of the nation of ISREAL! the British faught tooth and nail to prevent this as did the Arab countries with the United nations. But eventually world wide sympothy won out and the Jews gained their own homeland, Isreal. this was also a time of mutch internation reform concerning war and the geneiva hate convention laws. many new laws were inacted to help prevent such occurances again! we hope.\n\nReligeous- The Jews for the first time in decades were free to worship their own way. Though not widly accepted, the jewish faith was finally able to be freely expressed by Jews world wide though some anti sematic jewish factions still existed especially in the united States.\n\nmy great grandfather feared for my families security here in the US so he sahved his beard, wore a suit and dropped the Orthodox faith to help save us and we were all raised regular christians. All because of the anti semitism that still existed here even after WWII. I never had a barmitsva, nor was raised in the jewish way but my family is bloodline Jewish. I still till this day wonder about my own Jewish roots.\n\nIn the words of my grandpa- "We must never forget the Holocost!\n\nHere's a little fun fact for you.\nDid you know that the term Holocost did not come from Europe?\nNo one in Europe ever termed that time period of the nazi's demonic reign of terror the Holocost.\n\nThe term Holocost was coined actually by America.\n\nSo there you go, a bit of history lesson for ya.
