How has my world view changed since the study of World War II?
By: Chanteal

The study of World War II greatly changed my view of the world. When I was little I heard many people talk about World War II. I used to think big deal it was just a war.

Now that I have studied World War II in depth I have become more serious towards wars. I never would of thought that one man could cause such a horrible war. He almost wiped out an entire race.

It’s just plain terrifying what people will do when they are angry and desperate. I mean think about it, he got Germany to believe that Jews were responsible for every thing that happened to the Germans. Hitler tore apart the Jewish families. He would take a family member and send their ashes back to their Jewish family.

Some Jews that survived the concentration camps wished they would of died because they lost the rest of their family. I couldn’t believe it.

My Librarian talked to my class in 4th grade about it. Parts of her family had endured this time period. Some of her stories were so horrible that us kids cried with her.

In my opinion that was the worst time in history. I am not for wars, but I am not exactly against wars either.

World War II was also a time when a lot of things were invented. The atomic bomb isn’t one of the greater inventions even though it set Japan right.

The world isn’t the safe happy place I always thought it was. It is more greedy than anything else in my opinion. World War II has changed my world view greatly.
