4. Murder/Massacre- The act or an instance of killing a number of human beings under circumstances of atrocity or cruelty. This includes pogroms, mass executions, and crimes against humanity that lead to death. Although it is not considered to be genocide, these acts are no less vicious and no less tragically final for the victims.
7. Hostility towards Jews as an ethnic or religious group, often accompanied by social, economic, and political discrimination.
8. An individual or group unfairly blamed from problems not of their making
9. A person who carries out a harmful, illegal, or immoral act.
10. The deliberate and systematic destruction of a racial, political, or cultural group. (e.g., From the Greek, “genos”, meaning, “race”, and the English, “cide”, meaning, “denoting an act of killing”).
11. (which has been used to mean “destruction” since the middle ages) became the standard Hebrew term for the murder of European Jewry as early as the early 1940s. The word Holocaust, which came into use in the 1950s as the corresponding term, originally meant a sacrifice burned entirely on the altar. The selection of these two words with religious origins reflects recognition of the unprecedented nature and magnitude of the events.
