Question

How did some Europeans show tier resistance to Nazi persecution of the Jew?

Answer 1

Hint:
Persecution of Jews has long been a feature of Jewish culture, resulting in waves of refugees throughout the diaspora.

Persecution of Jews reached its peak in Nazi Germany's policies, which prioritized the extermination of Jews, resulting in the deaths of nearly 6,000,000 Jews during the Holocaust, which lasted from 1941 to 1945.

Complete answer:
Europeans show tier resistance to Nazi persecution of the Jew -
The persecution of Jews by the Nazis began slowly and steadily. Also, in Occupied Poland in 1939-40, the systematic assassination of Polish intellectuals and leaders outpaced the casual shooting of Jews. Before the Soviet invasion of the USSR in June 1941, these last (also in danger from the Soviets) were killed at a higher rate than Jews.

The true start of the Holocaust was the mass shootings of hundreds of thousands of Jews by Germans (and Romanians), mostly with local support who conflated Soviet ideology with Jewish identity. In the same year, famine deaths in Polish ghettos began. The mass murder began in earnest after the Wannsee Conference in January 1942, with the creation of six operational death camps.

There were few "Righteous Among the Nations" often because supporting the Jews could lead to a hasty execution if captured. Even so, there were some truly heroic individuals who assisted in the smuggling of food into Ghettos, smuggling people out (particularly children), and hiding Jews in the forests, remote farms, sewers, and attics. Some resistance movements killed everyone who betrayed Jews to the Germans, while others created fake IDs.

The full scope of the Holocaust was not generally known until 1943 (thanks to the Polish Home Army resistance movement), but much of the killing had already occurred. Nonetheless, Jews were concealed or smuggled to safety in Bulgaria, Italy, Denmark, Norway, and Greece, while Romania reversed its earlier persecution.

Resistance to the Nazis was always extremely risky, and acts of resistance were quickly punished. Some of the bravest people in the war were the "Righteous Among the Nations" who worked to save Jews.

Note: By 1942, the Nazi leadership had agreed to carry out the Final Solution, or the genocide of Europe's Jews, and to hasten the Holocaust by creating concentration camps for the purpose of killing Jews as well as other undesirables such as publicly opposing Hitler.
