Did the Jews in Warsaw know that they were going to be shipped to execution camps? I thought they only thought they were going to be shipped to labor camps.<p>If they didn&#x27;t know, or weren&#x27;t sure, then your explanation doesn&#x27;t work. (That&#x27;s not to say the desire to protect one&#x27;s human rights, and way of life, isn&#x27;t enough. One need only look to the Finns in the Winter War for an example of that.)<p>The information I found (mostly Wikipedia) is incomplete and contradictory. As there is a lot of fraudulent anti-Holocaust, anti-Jew publications on the topic, it is hard for me to get a sense of who knew what when.<p>Also, the German mass murders includes several million non-Jewish Slavs in Ukraine. If the Holocaust deaths help explain why the Jews in Warsaw fought back the way they did, is the Slavic response any different, and if so, why?<p>This lack of comparison data, when it seems like it should be both relevant and available, is why I don&#x27;t regard this piece in the WaPa to be a good historical work.
