Q:Many Holocaust survivors have said that justice after the Holocaust was never achieved. Do you feel that the war crimes trials provided the survivors of the Holocaust with a sense of justice? If not, what else do you believe could have been done? Do you think it is possible that justice could ever be served with an event of such magnitude as the Holocaust? What does the concept of “justice” mean to you?
A:Personally to me I think that in some type of way justice was served for the Holocaust victims. At the same time no one could ever erase the scar that has been scraped in the hearts of the survivors. I think the punishment of the Holocaust participants were decent but could have been worse in some way. I think they were left A little bit of slack and treated with too much respect that they did not deserve. None of the participants of the conspiracy against the Jews did not even give a splinter of slack to anyone. Therefore I don’t think that they deserved any of the privileges that they received especially in the courtroom during the crime trials. As I stated earlier I think that justice could have been served to people of the world by having the trials and punishments more strictly done. However to the people who actually experienced and went through what feels like hell justice could never served. When I hear the word justice especially concerning the Holocaust I imagine everything that the victims have every lost including people will be given and replaced. That is not the case nothing can ever be replaced for thee victims of the Holocaust justice can never be done.
