Holocaust

In the article, it stated that there was an armed Jewish resistance. This resistance helped get Jews out of concentration camps, and provided for the Jews outside of the camps, as well. The French branch of the resistance, for example, smuggled 500 Jews and non-Jews into Spain during the war. The article noted that while Jewish resistance did help, it actually did little to actually stop the Nazis. Most Jewish resistance focused on rescue, escape, aiding those in hiding, and spiritual resistance.
