Photo of group of ~17 children ... really, just minutes before they were killed by the German/ Nazi Mobile Killing Unit? (And what a name, Mobile Killing Unit.)

They were not school children, they were pre-schoolers, just little ones.

Why was there not more armed or violent resistance to such heinous acts? Even if, unfortunately, firearms had been confiscated, why — how? — did those who killed these children live to see another day?

I can now better understand how the Holocaust came to be — we’re seeing it unfold before our eyes with the successful demonization of conservatives, the successful, et al. I would like to better understand why, how it was, that there was not more widespread effective resistance to the Nazi death machine at all levels, wanting to know what there is to learn from that situation to apply to what we may (God forbid!) see unfold here. I’m aware of resistance efforts, have always appreciated those efforts.

Actually the Einsatzkommando’s mission was more extensive than just Jews — their mission was to kill Jews, Polish intellectuals, Romani, communists and the NKVD collaborators
